Tu Youyou is a Chinese medical scientist, pharmaceutical (制药的) chemist, and educator best known for
discovering artemisinin (also known as qing hao su). The discovery of artemisinin and its treatment of malaria
are regarded as a significant breakthrough of tropical medicine in the 20th century and health improvement
for people of tropical developing countries in South Asia, Africa, and South America.
For her work, Tu received the 2011 Lasker Award in Clinical Medicine and the 2015 Nobel Prize in
Physiology or Medicine. The Nobel Committee puts Tu’s work well by writing: “Malaria infects close to 200
million individuals yearly. Artemisinin is used in all malaria-ridden parts of the world. When used in
combination treatment, it is estimated to reduce the death rate from malaria by more than 20% overall and by
more than 30% in children. For Africa alone, this means that more than 100,000 lives are saved each year.”
In China, Tu is known as a “sanwu scientist”. Tu has spent no time studying abroad, no membership with
the Chinese Academy of Sciences and no doctoral degree. The Xinhua News Agency has commented on the
significance of Tu’s achievement, “Not only is Tu the first Chinese Nobel laureate (获奖者) in natural science,
but also the first Nobel laureate who received all scientific training in China. The award she won made
Chinese scientists gain tremendous confidence.”
As part of the programme charged with finding a treatment for malaria, Tu was inspired by an ancient
Chinese text which said qinghao was used to tackle intermittent fevers (间歇热) around 400 AD.In the herb
Tu discovered a compound, now known as artemisinin, which proved an effective treatment for the infection.
Tu herself volunteered to be the first human recipient.
An article Tu Youyou published in Nature in 2011 ended up with an insightful sentence. “It is my dream
that Chinese medicine will help us conquer life-threatening diseases worldwide, and people across the globe
will enjoy its benefits for health promotion,”Tu wrote.

In the vast and diverse world of animals, there exists odd gestures that often leave us humans puzzled
and amazed. These gestures, which may seem strange or unusual to us, are actually fascinating glimpses into
the unique behaviors and communication styles of our pets.
Animals want our attention, and sometimes they're quite obvious about asking for it. Odd gesture are
often our pets' way of telling us to stop what we're doing and play with them. It's why Fido constantly follows
his tail and why Kitty keeps rolling around. An extremely bored pet may choose “bad” behaviors to cause a
reaction!
Sure, your dog loves you, but that's not why he's licking(舔) your face. A little dog learns to lick his
mother's mouth to obtain a little food, so Spot isn't kissing you in our sense of the word; he just wants a snack.
Cat owners also misinterpret their pets’ kisses. While a cat might lick you to show love, sometimes she'll
do it to comfort herself. One way to tell if her licking is stress-related is whether it goes on for a long period
of time.
At some point you've probably told these words to someone who made you angry. Dogs think similarly,
avoiding eye contact with anyone who injures their feelings. Another sign of anger: yawning ( 打 哈 欠 ). A
yawning dog may not be tired but anxious, not bored but stressed. Similarly, lip-licking— when there isn't
food around to bring about it—is another sign of threat.
You might think your dog is running around the backyard, having the time of his life while you're away.
But the reality is that he's most likely just sitting in one spot for hours, waiting for you to return with anxiety.
Dogs actually prefer to be inside, ideally with their owners.
28. If a dog intends to eat food, which action will it take?
A. It stretches its legs, yawning.
B. It makes an eye contact with its owner.
C. It licks its owner’s face with a soft tongue.
D. It runs around the backyard, following its tail.
29. What do we learn about the gesture if a cat constantly kisses itself?
A.It feels amused. B.It feels stressed.
C.It feels angry. D.It feels tired.
30. When the dog sits for a long time without moving,it reveals .
A.the dog is eagerly awaiting your return B.the dog displays a sign of tiredness
C.the dog is extremely bored to play with you D.the dog displays a sign of embarrassment

The new e-skin improves tasks requiring accuracy and force control, overcoming a big challenge in
advancing technology. Unlike traditional e-skins, this new e-skin stays accurate even when it stretches. “Much
like human skin has to stretch and bend as we move, so does e-skin,” explains Nanshu Lu, a professor in the
Cockrell School.
The breakthrough lies in an innovative hybrid response pressure sensor that Lu and her partners have
developed over years. Lu sees the stretchable e-skin as an important part of a robot hand that can mirror the
softness and sensitivity of a human hand. This new e-skin technology senses pressure from contact, letting the
attached machine know how much force to use to, for example, hold a cup or touch a person. In
demonstrations, the new e-skin allowed the robot hand to adapt to various sensitive tasks, such as accurately
measuring human pulse ( 脉 搏 ) and pulse waves, securely holding objects without dropping them and even
handling unexpected items like coins inside a glass or pressing on a potato chip without breaking it.
Lu and her team are currently exploring potential applications, including partnering to build a robotic
arm equipped with the e-skin technology. They have also applied for a basic patent for the e-skin, indicating
its potential for business use. In a world where the aging population exceeds (超过) the number of caregivers,
the need for efficient and gentle care solutions is necessary. Lu believes robots equipped with advanced
technologies like the stretchable e-skin could play a vital role in dealing with this global challenge.
Beyond medicine,human-caring robots could be used in disasters. They could search for injured and
trapped people in an earthquake or a collapsed building. From healthcare to disaster response, the potential is
significant. With further development and cooperation with robotics companies, Lu hopes to see this e-skin
technology make its way to the market, marking the beginning of a new era of human-robot interaction and
care.
32. What advantage does the new e-skin have over traditional e-skins?
A. It keeps accurate even when stretching.
B. It enables robots to move at a fast speed.
C. It allows robot hands to bend into all shapes.
D. It helps robot hands control with less force.
33. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The wide applications of the new e-skin.
B. The important development of the new e-skin.
C. The major challenge of the pressure sensor
D. The strong function of the pressure sensor.
34. What can robots with the new e-skin do for the global challenge of aging population?
A.Reduce healthcare costs.
B.Limit global business use.
C.Replace human caregivers.
D.Improve medical care efficiency.
35. What is the author’s attitude to the future of the new e-skin?
A.Doubtful. B.Unclear C.Positive. D.Disapproving.

When I was a little girl, I knew that I had a gift for music. Playing was my love. While most kids were
outside in the burning summer sun, playing childish games, I was happy to sit in the cool indoors for hours
practicing my beloved piano. When I played, I felt like I was in a whole new world where I was free and easy.
All I had to worry about was my music. Playing was never boring for me.
I had spent months practicing and the big day finally came. It was the day of the Alberta Music
Competition. The music hall was packed with excited could not keep first row with my mother seated beside
me. As the fellow competitors were playing. I couldn’t keep my mind on their music. I was just memorizing
the notes and practising the fingerings. I had known my music was like the back of my hand. But this time, to
my great surprise, I found my fingers completely out of my control. They kept shaking. I nearly burst into
tears. Seeing this, mom held my hands tightly in hers. She even breathed into them as if she wanted to warm
them up. Then she whispered to my ear, “Sweetie, take it easy. Just listen and enjoy the music.”
I looked up and turned my attention to the competitor in the center of the stage for the first time. A thin
and tall boy was sitting at the beautiful red piano. He looked calm and confident. His fingertips danced on the
keyboard. The soft and gentle sound of the piano flew in the air. For a moment, I totally forgot my
nervousness.
