However, it is reperted that mosquitoes haven' been seen here for almost a century The village with a long history is in the mountains of China's Fujian Province. There are many special stone houses. But in recent years, the culture and buildings of this village have been overshadowed(使失色) by a mystery-the absence(缺乏) of mosquitoes. It's unclear whether scientists ever made a survey to get to know this mystery. But most of the people in Ding Wuling believe it has something to do with the toad-shaped(瞻余形状的) stone. They believe that the"god toad" prevents the mosquitoes from entering the village. Another popular explanation(解释) has to do with the local villagers'habit of collecting rubbish and burying(埋) it on the hillside near the.village. When Chinese newspaper People's Daily first reported the mystery of this mosquito-free village , the local villagers hoped that ex- perts(专家) could soon offer a certain answer to the mystery and put Ding Wuling on the tour- ist map. Unluckily, I haven't been able to find newer information about Ding Wuling and its mos quito mystery, so it's possible that the whole thing was made up to help develop tourism in the area. Then again, there might be something special about that toad-shaped stone. Who knows? 43. What is the village known for? A. The fact that there are no mosquitoes in this village B.

D-To expleis people's findings in Ding g Wuling D Scientists in Switzerland said that new devices(设备)helped a 40-year-old man walk gain, 12 years after an accident left him paralyzed ( unable to move parts of the body). It is th first technology of this kind to be successfully used in humans. The technology could also hel people with the same problem get control over their bodies again Gert-Jan Oskam was in an accident in 2012 that harmed his spinal cord(脊髓). The ep nal cord connects the brain to the rest of the body, allowing messages to be sent. When the spi nal cord is hurt, signals(信号) from the brain can't get through to certain body parts. For Os kam, they were his legs. Reserchers put devices in Oskam's skull(头骨) and spine. They acted as a"bridge" allowing information to travel from his brain to the rest of his body without passing through th wounded part of the spinal cord. After lots of training, Oskam can now walk a short distance(距离)with a cane(手杖)- even when the devices are off. This might mean that Oskam's spinal cord seems to be makin new connections. The"bridge"solution(解决方案) isn't perfect. It costs and needs difficult operation (手术) and lots of training. But the scientists are hopeful that in the future, this technolog will allow many paralyzed people to walk again 47. What happened to Gert-Jan Oskam in 2012? A. He got control over his body again B.
