Galileo was born in a well-respected family in Italy in 1564. From a young age, he was 3 asking questions. In 1609, Galileo heard about a simple telescope (望远镜) created by an eyeglass maker.

Classic Chinese cartoons bring joy to most of us. These years, some classic Chinese cartoons came out on the video platform again. Let's see how old artists put Chinese culture and art into the cartoons to make them classic.
The Legend of Sealed Book tells the story of the boy Dansheng. He practises great tricks from books to help people. The film uses face make-up from the Beijing Opera. It helps to show the characters' personalities. Lovely Dansheng looks like wawasheng, a role for kids in the Beijing Opera. A foolish person looks like chou, with a large white part in the centre of his face.
Baby Tadpoles Look for Their Mother is China's first ink animation. Artists drew all the animals, plants and rocks with a brush and ink. They learnt from the great artist Qi Baishi. Though it's only about 15 minutes long, it took lots of work. The artists drew everything by hand. One second of the cartoon needed 24 pictures! The 2020 cartoon series Fog Hills of Five Element also uses this style.
Zhu Bajie Eating Watermelon is China's first paper-cutting cartoon. This 20-minute cartoon came out in 1958. Artists cut Zhu Bajie out of coloured paper. Then they moved its body parts and let it eat the watermelon. Making a paper-cutting cartoon was not easy. The artists failed at first. The characters' moves were not stable (稳定的). After more work, they tried again and finally did it!

( )13. Why did the artists fail to make the paper-cutting cartoon at first
A. Because it was hard to make the characters' moves stable.
B. Because artists couldn't cut out the paper in the correct form.
C. Because they didn't have enough time to check the paper-cutting.

People know animals do have feelings, but they are not sure if these feelings are correctly understood. In recent years, scientists have done research about the feelings of cows, frogs and pandas.
▲ It says that humans can tell whether a chicken is happy or sad by listening to its calls.
The researchers put a bowl behind a door. Inside the bowl, sometimes, there was something chickens love to eat, such as rice or insects. Sometimes, there was nothing. When the chickens saw food behind the door, they seemed happy and produced fast and loud sounds, known as food calls. When there wasn't food, the chickens made low and long noises to express disappointment. The researchers recorded all these sounds and studied their waves.
Then the researchers chose 16 recordings of such chicken noises. Half were from the chickens seeing the food and half were from the chickens finding no food. The recordings were played to 194 volunteers. Sixty-nine percent of the volunteers correctly understood whether the chickens were feeling happy or not, and some of them even had no experience of taking care of chickens.
The result shows that humans have the natural ability to understand the feelings of chickens. Hopefully, this finding can bring about new technology to help with chicken-raising, a big industry in many countries. Some scientists are already working on a smart computer program that can identify chickens' feelings. This is good news for farmers who want to make the birds happier and healthier.
