Magic World B Is there a way to quickly recall (回忆) information just before taking an exam? Walking backward might be a solution. Scientists from the university in the UK said this activity can help people improve their short-term memory. Researchers asked 114 volunteers to watch a video. After watching the video, participants(参与者) were dividing into three groups. One group was told to walk 10 meters forward. The second group walked 10 meters backward. The third group stood in one place. All three groups were then asked 20 questions about what they saw in the video. Scientists found that the backward-walking group got two more answers correct on average than the other two groups. This suggests that the link between the concepts (概念) of time and space is important in terms of how our minds form memories. When you walk backward, you see things from a different angle (角度) compared to walking forward. This difference helps people recall things that happened in the past. And walking backward is also good for the rest of our bodies. Compared to walking forward, walking backward is more challenging. This can help us improve our fitness, according to New Scientist. Walking backward uses more energy in a short time and burns more calories (卡路里). In addition, walking backward is less stressful for knees. It could be helpful for people who often have pain in their knees. Walking backward also keeps our spines (脊柱) strong, which can help to ease (缓解) pain in the lower back. This might be why many old people like walking backward. 5. What does the underlined phrase“this activity”in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. Recalling information. B. Taking an exam. C. Walking backward. D. Improving memory. 6. The second paragraph is written to . A. introduce an effective way of walking B. describe how researchers did their experiment C. explain why walking backward improves memory D. show who can answer more questions correctly 7. According to New Scientist, how can walking backward be helpful? A. It helps people remember information. B. It allows people to see things in a new angle. C. It helps people burn more calories. D. It can ease pain in people's knees and backs. 8. What do we know from the text? A. Walking backward can help people in many ways. B. Scientists suggest walking backward for 10 meters C. Memories are formed when we do challenging activities. D. Old people like walking backward because it can help them lose weight. C In ancient times, copper coins meant wealth. Liking the copper coins one by one had the good meaning of collecting wealth. With coins, people can knit(编织) them into different shapes, from armor(盔甲) and swords( 剑), to animals and plants. As a traditional skill in China, copper coin knitting was listed as an intangible cultural heritage in 2018. Every day at 9 am, Zhang Caijin, 58 years old, comes to the Drum Tower Street in Ningbo and walks into a small house of less than 10 square meters. Sitting down at his desk, the inheritor (继承人) of copper coin knitting starts his day. “Knitting the coins into different shapes doesn't sound difficult, but the key is to be creative and think big, Zhang said. So, since he started his own copper coin knitting store in 2014, he has tried very hard to think big. Zhang went on to say,“As I keep on making different works, I have more creative ideas in my mind.” To try something challenging, Zhang spent two months making armor with more than 8,000coins in 2017. It got great public attention and even earned him a national patent for design(设计专利). This also gave him more confidence. Now, he tries to continue getting more creative ideas and hopes the art form will reach more people. “I think we Chinese people should pass on our own treasures and traditions,”Zhang said.The house of Zhang stands there in the middle of the crowded Drum Tower Street, and inside Zhang is knitting his love for heritage into a beautiful dream. 9.

Linking the copper coins one by one used to mean collecting wealth. D. Copper coin knitting was listed as an intangible cultural heritage in 2019. 11. What can you infer from “a beautiful dream” in the last sentence? A. Zhang wishes to get more patents for design. B. Zhang dreams of opening more copper coin knitting stores. C. Zhang wants to make more money by knitting copper coins. D. Zhang hopes more Chinese can spread our traditional culture. 12. What's the best title for the text? A. A story about coins B.

During online shopping festivals, for example, users are usually led to shopping apps. There are already a number of regulations (法规) on this problem. A regulation that came out in 2022 gave special rules for how these “shake-to-open”ads should operate. It said that the rotation angle (旋转角度) of the phone should be larger than 35 degrees, and the time spent shaking the phone should be longer than 3 seconds. Starting from May, the ads must have a clear button to let users to close them. However, putting these regulations into action can be difficult. The total number of apps is large, making it hard for authorities to look into every app. There were at least 2.59 million apps released(发布) in January and February alone, reported Nanfang Daily. However, this shouldn't be the reason for the mobile apps to step out of these “lines” and take advantage. That way, what all the platforms (平台) really get is people's complaints. Over90 percent of users strongly dislike such open-app ads, according to the Jiangsu Consumer Council. Such ads hurt an app's reputation ( 声誉) because fewer users may want to use them after being taken to other apps too many times. To get real recognition (认可) from users, the apps should respect their choices and provide them with ads that they can choose to click on only if they want to. 13.

Is there a way to build earthquake-proof buildings? 17 Lift the house up To prevent earthquake waves from going through the building, one way is to “lift” the building’s foundation(地基) above the ground, according to US construction company BigRentz. The building can be built on top of pads(垫状物), which are usually made up of steel and rubber. During earthquakes, only the pads move and the building stays steady.

In Japan, most traditional houses are built with wood instead of concrete(混凝土). During earthquakes, wooden buildings bend like willows to avoid building up stress. Modern tall buildings usually combine concrete with steel. Concrete makes the building strong enough while steel increases its ductility(延展性). A strong shape 19 When a force comes to one of the corners of a triangle, it will be reduced by going down each side.

According to China Daily , the newly named heritage site has five large and well-looked-after old tea forests, three protective barrier forests(分隔防护林) and nine ancient villages in the old tea forests. The cultural landscape was created by both the ancestors(祖先) of the Blang people and the local Dai people. The Blang people moved to Jingma Mountain around the 10th century and later discovered and grew tea trees there. With long-time practices, local people developed the understory growing technique.

For example, smaller trees grow under larger trees to avoid too much sunshine and get suitable moisture. To keep their tea leaves healthy, the locals refuse to use pesticides(杀虫剂) and chemical fertilizers(肥料). “Birds eat insects to protect the tea and fallen leaves from taller trees provide fertilizer,”Nan Kang, a 61-year-old Blang man, told China Daily.
