EDITOR'SNOTE
ACentury inCirculation
This year's annual classics collection is particularly special, given it is the
magazine's 100th anniversary year. Peeling back the covers of the thousands of
editions, published in numerous countries, and dating back to the first issue in
February 1922,isalways a task weenjoy doing.
学学科科网网（（北北京京））股股份份有有限限公公司司This collection offers a wide range of different subjects. Each one we hope will
inform, delight, amuse and perhaps even confound our readers: from stepping inside
the French artist Pierre-Auguste's inner circle of friends （Page 84）, to finding
peace from depression in a solitary walk on the beach （Page 92） and meeting a cat
who held a family together as they began to fall apart （Page 20）. My favorite
article, Exploits of Charles （ Page 100 ） , is written by a mother about the
increasingly odd behavior of a little boy in her young son's kindergarten class. I am
sure you'll enjoy this amusing account of a small boy adjusting to his new classmates
and teachers. With an endless supply of wonderful stories, surprising insights and
experiences to share, Reader's Digest remains a place to find fresh perspectives and a
great read.
Happy reading!

Anthony Doerr's new bestseller, All the Light We Cannot See, holds special
appeal for me. That's how I would describe it. From the poetic language, to the
realization of what the tile actually means: that underneath the surface of history,
there islight that has not been seen, and storiesthat have gone untold.
I'm going to be honest-love for this book didn't hit me straight away. In fact, my
first attempt to read it last month ended with me putting it aside and going to find
something easier, lighter and less descriptive to read. But this book is built on
beautiful imagery. Both in the literal sense-the physical world of 1940s Paris and
Germany, and the metaphorical （隐喻性的）sense-scientific and philosophical
references to light, to seeing and not seeing, and the differences between the two. It's
abeautiful work ofgenius, butit does get alittle complicated at times.
However, when we get into the meat of this World War II novel, it's also an
upsetting story of a childhood torn apart by war. It's about Parisian Marie Laure who
has been blind since she was six, and a German orphan called Werner who finds
himself at the center of the Hitler Youth. Both of their stories are told with sensitivity
and sympathy, each one forced down a path by their personal circumstances and by
that destructivemonster-war.
I think this is the kind of book you will never appreciate if you stop too soon-I
learned that lesson. From the first to last page, there is a theme of invisible lines
running parallel （平 行的）to one another and sometimes, just sometimes, crossing
in the strangest way. These two lives we are introduced to seem to be worlds apart,
and yet they come together and influence one another. It was this, more than the
predictably awful tale ofwar, that mademefeel quiteemotional.
24.Whatdoes thewriterthink of thebook?
A. Light andeasy toread.
B. Richinphilosophical ideas.
C. Fascinatingbut toodescriptive.
学学科科网网（（北北京京））股股份份有有限限公公司司D. Toocomplicated forits theme.
25.Whatcan we learn about MarieLaure and Werner?
A. Thewar leads to theirsensitivity.
B. They knoweach other at an early age.
C. TheHitlerYouth pushes them to grow.
D. They both have amiserable childhood.
26.Whatparticularly stirred the writer's emotions?
A. Thebook's dramaticending.
B. Thebook's beautiful imagery.
C. Thecharacters' interconnected destiny.
D. Thesuffering brought byWorld WarII.
27.Whatis thepurpose ofthis text?
A. Toshare thewriter's feelings of abook.
B. Torecommend adelightful bestseller.
C. Totell readers aheartbreaking story.
D. Toanalyze thestructure of abook.
C
The sperm whale is an astonishing creature. It's longer than a semi-truck, weighs
more than 90, 000 pounds and is the largest member of the toothed whale family. It's
known to dive 6, 500 feet in search of food, and to stay down there for longer than an
hourat a time.
Perhaps most fantastically, the sperm whale's brain weighs as much as 20
pounds-the biggest of any species on Earth. But when it comes to brains, is size all
that matters? There's a lot wedon't know about the sperm whale's intelligence because
it's difficult to carry out neurological （神经的） testing on such a huge marine
mammal. But some clues point to sperm whales being much smarter than we give
them credit for.
A 2021 study published in Biology Letters, for example, looked back to 19th-
century historical logbooks from whalers. Researchers found that sperm whales were
at first easy to catch-but almost immediately, the whales learned how to evade
hunters and whaling success dropped by 60 percent. The study suggests that the
whales passed information to oneanother through soundwaves to avoid being caught.
学学科科网网（（北北京京））股股份份有有限限公公司司Animals that have big brains usually have a few things in common. They usually
live long lives; for example, sperm whales can live for 70 years or longer.
Additionally, they're capable of complex behaviors and they tend to be more socia1.
Whales may work together tohuntor communicatein a languageall their own.
What's more, humans, whales and dolphins all have spindle neurons in their
brains. These nerve cells make us capable of deeper thought, such as reasoning skills,
memory, communication and adaptive thinking. And like humans, whales have
emotional intelligence- meaning they＇recapable ofempathy, grief and sadness. Still,
inproportion to （与…成比例）our body size, the human brain is bigger than that of
thesperm whale.
Yet there's still so much we don't know about how smart sperm whales really are.
And just like the whalers of a century ago, we have likely been underestimating
marine mammals, whether large or small, for as long as we've known of their
existence.
28.Whydopeople knowlittleabout thesperm whale's intelligence?
A. Sperm whales' big sizemakes research difficult.
B. It didn't attract scientists' attentionuntil recently.
C. Whalers didn't keep enough records oftheirhunting.
D. Sperm whales usually stay deep down in theocean.
29.Whatdoes theunderlined word “evade”mean inparagraph 3?
A. Track.
B. Avoid.
C. Locate.
D. Trick. 30.Whatconclusion can we draw from paragraph 5?
A. Thenerve cells distinguish humans from animals.
B. Spermwhales have smallerbrains than humans.
C. Spindleneurons makehigher intelligence possible.
D. Emotional intelligence is uniqueto whales and humans.
31.Whichis themost suitabletitlefor thetext?
A. Sperm Whales Are Astonishingly Smart
B. SpermWhales Have theBiggest Brain
C. Break theCodeof WhaleLanguage
D. Unlock the Mystery ofSea Mammals

“In English, my speech is very polite, with a relaxed tone, always saying
'please' and 'excuseme. ' When I speak Greek, I start talking more rapidly, with a tone
ofanxietyand in akind ofrude way. ..”
If the words resonate （共鸣）with you, you＇ve probably already experienced
the surprising, odd phenomenon of feeling like having different personalities when
speaking different languages. How is that possible？ Could it be that bilinguals （双
语者）change their personality when they change language? After all, the Czech
proverb does say, “Learn a new languageand get anew soul. ”
In my book on bilingualism, Life with Two Languages, I noted first of all that
monocultural （单文化的）bilinguals who make up the majority of bilinguals in the
world are not really affected by this phenomenon. Although bi-or multilingual, they
are in fact members of just one culture. But what about bicultural bilinguals? I
proposed that what is seen as a change in personality is most probably simply a shift
in attitudes and behaviors that correspond to a shift in situation or context,
independent of language. Basically, the bicultural bilinguals in academic studies were
behaving bicultural, that is, adapting to the context they were in. Different contexts
and domains trigger different impressions, attitudesand behaviors.
Imagine the way we speak to a best friend and the behavior that we adopt. Then,
think of how all this changes when we are speaking the same language to a superior
（e. g. a school head, religious authority or employer）. We behave differently and
sometimes change attitudes and feelings even though the language is the same. The
sameis truefor bilinguals except thathere the language may bedifferent. It is the
environment, the culture, and the people one talks to that cause bicultural
bilinguals to change attitudes, feelings and behaviors （along with language）-and
not their language as such. In essence, there does not seem to be a direct causal
relationship between language and personality.
32.Whatfunction does thefirst paragraph serve?
A. Tosupport thewriter's argument.
B. Tointroduce thetopicof thetext.
C. Topresent a general knowledge fact.
D. Toprovide background information.
学学科科网网（（北北京京））股股份份有有限限公公司司33.Whatis paragraph 3mainlyabout?
A. Themeaning ofbilingual study.
B. Cultural influence onlanguages.
C. Attitudeand proper behavior.
D. Thetruth of “personality shift”.
34.Howwould thewriter probably explainthespeaker's behaviorin paragraph 1?
A. His fluency in English is not as great as that ofGreek.
B. Hispersonality isaffected bythelanguage heuses.
C. Hespeaks English where manners are expected.
D. He speaks Greek when hetalks to his superiors.
35.Bicultural bilinguals change attitudes when they ___.
A. change theirlanguages
B. change theirbehavior
C. are insearch ofsocial status
D. are in different situations

As my wife worked a late shift, my three small children
looked at me expectantly. “What's for dinner?” one of them
said.
The last time I had made dinner was when I made ramen
（拉面） in college. Now, I had three mouths to feed-aged
two, six and nine-but I was crucially short on ideas. Like a deer in headlights, I
searched forapossibleanswer.
"Where's theTwister game?”
“Not Twister, ”Abby, my oldest, scolded. “Dinner. ”
学学科科网网（（北北京京））股股份份有有限限公公司司I walked to the closet, pulled out the game, and tested the spinner （转盘）.
Then I slid a couple of sheets of paper between the plastic arrow and the cardboard
base and sketched out four quadrants （90 度圆弧）. I looked at the kids. “Who
wants chocolate？”
Alex,my youngest, screamed indelight.
Abby crossed her arms. “Dad, Mom wouldn't let that happen. ”
“Mom's not here.”
Iwrote in theupperright quadrant: chocolate.
Aiden, my middlechild, asked, “Dad, what are you doing?”
“You'll see in a second. ” I pointed at the second area. “How about ice
cream?”
Alex started dancing around inacircle.
“When we get four options written on the spinner, we'll spin to see what we do
fordinner tonight. ”
My youngest said, “Dress uplikesuperheroes. ”
“ Absolutely!” I wrote superheroes, with no idea how that would turn into a
dinner idea. They debated the final section for a few seconds and then collectively
decided on pizza. If they had suggested “Run around at the mall, ” I would have
written it down.
I smoothed out the paper, tested the spinner, and then set it in the middle of the
table.
Wegathered around the spinner, and I held up my hands. “We are going to spin
itonce, andwhatever we land on,that's what we'll dotonight. ”
