Working during the day and learning new skills at night is becoming a popular trend among young people in China. From dancing, beauty, fitness classes to wine tasting and vlog filming, the list of possibilities for new learning experiences seems limitless.
These diverse options, cost-effectiveness and highly qualified teachers have made “night schools” popular once more. Young people at night schools can explore their interests and enrich their personal, spiritual, and cultural fulfillment.
“Night schools enable our generation to actively develop non--utilitarian (非功利的) interests,” said Xu Lili, a 27-year-old advertisement planner. She spent an entire weekend selecting night school institutions and courses through a popular lifestyle-sharing platform before attending classes. Finally, she chose a street dance club that was close to her workplace. She said the atmosphere was great. She has made many new friends there.
Night schools provide a break from work-related stress and allow individuals to explore their passion at minimal cost. The demand for such courses is clear. Zheng Lifu even turned his art training center into a night school in Fuzhou. Within a few days of posting course information on a platform, he received over 300 enquiries (询问) and finally got more than 100 participants.
As night schools continue to grow in popularity, institutions are expanding their course offerings and hiring qualified teachers to meet the increasing demand.

Robots also complete the delivery of dishes. Without following any designed route, the robot waiters serve meals thanks to automated driving technology, which helps each robot timely change its route when something is in the way.
These eye-catching technologies have received wide praise from customers. “The dishes taste surprisingly good. I couldn’t believe that they were made by robots, especially dishes that were difficult to cook.” one customer said. “The application of robots has increased our efficiency and cut down our costs,” Li said, “I think robot restaurants will develop fast and have a bright future.”

Music can make us feel all sorts of different emotions. There might be a certain song that reminds you of a time of your life-a particular day or moment. Maybe it’s the song that was playing when you met your partner, or when you last saw your best friend.
But according to new research, music may be able to do more than just bring back memories- it could even affect the way we remember the past. Researchers in the US did an experiment in which test subjects were asked to memorize a number of short stories that were described as “emotionally neutral (中性的).”
A day later, the subjects were asked to think about these stories while listening to positive music, unpleasant music or silence. They also had MRI scans (磁共振成像扫描) to measure their brain activity while listening and thinking about the stories. Then the next day, they were asked to think back the stories without listening to any music.
The researchers found that when people were thinking about the stories and listening to emotional music, they were more likely to add new “emotional parts” into the story that matched the music. For example, if they were listening to positive music when thinking back the story, they were more likely to remember the story in a positive way, even when they thought back the story later and the music was not playing.
The researchers also saw increased activity in the parts of test subjects’ brains connected with emotional memory processing while people were listening to music and thinking about the stories. The research team said this may explain why music connected with an important life event can feel so powerful when we listen to it again later. They also said the idea of using music to influence memories could be useful for helping people with things like depression (抑郁).
12. How did the researchers get their findings
A. By making comparisons. B. By doing mental tests.
C. By referring to historical records. D. By recording subjects’ daily activities.
13. What did the MRI scans show about subjects’ brain activity
A. Music decreased brain activity related to memory.
B. Brain activity was not related to the type of music.
C. Silence had the greatest effect on memory processing.
D. Emotional music increased activity in emotional memory areas.
14. What possible application did the researchers suggest for using music to affect memories
A. Promoting musical skills. B. Helping people with depression.
C. Improving students’ studies. D. Reducing the effects of aging.
15. In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the passage
A. Art Appreciation. B. Music Education. C. Scientific Observation. D. Internet Technology.

Regardless of the weather or the distance, Paul Wilson would make sure low-income students in his neighborhood arrived at their college classes on time.
A retired engineer,76-year-old. Wilson had been offering free rides to college students for the past eight years. Since he first had started volunteering his car to the young people. Wilson had covered an astonishing 64,000 miles, and had countless pleasant and often humorous conversation with the students he transported to and from school. The students who he’d driven had gone on to become physicians, teachers and engineers, but what they’d also got out of their time in school was finding a role model and a friend in Wilson. Some students even called him “Grandpa”.
Tina Stern received rides from Wilson for all her four years in college, and the trips meant much more to her than just free transportation. “It’s not just a ride; you’re not just sitting there in awkward silence or with your headphones on.” Stern said. “He asks you questions and actually remembers the answers, so the next time you ride with him, he’ll check on those things.”
Wilson often went beyond to ensure the welfare and safety of the students. If they had problems with registration, Wilson was there to assist them. If they ran out of certain daily necessities, Wilson would drive to the nearest store and purchase what was needed. For many students, riding with Wilson had allowed them to complete their education-but according to Wilson, he benefited just as much from the experience. “I just love driving, and I love these kids,” Wilson said. “It’s such a privilege to be a part of these kids’ lives, getting to know them-and hearing their stories.”
One day, Stern came across Wilson and his wife in the hospital, where she knew Wilson was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease (阿尔兹海默症).

“He isn’t what he used to be,” his wife told Stern. “He’s still the same kind and caring man, but the disease has damaged his memory.” Stern felt a deep sense of sadness and gratitude mingling (混合) within her. She couldn’t imagine the man who had been such a constant and supportive presence in her life struggling with his own. “I wish there was something I could do,” she said, her voice filled with emotion.
Stern and other students volunteered to help Wilson. They organized a schedule to visit him regularly, bringing him homemade meals, reading to him, and sharing stories of their lives since college. They also helped with his medical appointments, ensuring that he and his wife were not alone during this challenging time. It was their way of giving back to the man who had given so much to them. “We’re here for you, Grandpa,” they would say, echoing the warmth and care he had once shown them. The bond between Wilson and his “adopted” students had become a two-way street of love and support, a testament to (证明) the enduring impact of his selfless acts.
