I'm worried about your future.” "What are you worrying about?Jack and Robert also failed, but don't they still go fishing?" “My boy, you can't think like that, " his dad said. “There is a story that people tell in our hometown. Listen to it now." "There were two cats playing on a roof (屋顶 ). One cat suddenly went down the chimney(烟囱). It caught the other cat quickly. When the two cats climbed out of the chimney, one of the cats had soot (煤灰) on its face, while the other cat's face was clean. Seeing the soot-faced cat, the clean cat thought its face must be dirty, so it quickly ran to the riverside and washed its face. The soot-faced cat saw the clean-faced cat and thought its face was also clean, so it just ran down the street.” "Einstein, no one can be your 'mirror'.You have to think for yourself. If you take your cue (提示)from others, you will never learn." Hearing this, Einstein put down his fishing rod and returned to his room.

Probably you can't answer this question quickly. In 2022, the world's use of paper was about fifty-eight kilograms for each person in a year. It’s reported that the amount(数量) of paper a country uses shows how advanced the country is. The Chinese first made paper about 2,000 years ago. At that time Chinese paper was not made from the wood of trees. It was made from the hair（植物叶茎上的）茸毛—like parts of certain plants. Today in Finland, which makes the best paper in the world, the paper industry(制造业) is the biggest in the land. The biggest machine can make a piece of paper 8,300 meters long and 6 meters wide in one minute. Each year, more and more things are made of paper. But only half of the paper that is made is used for books and newspapers. There are many other uses. We have had paper cups, plates, and dishes for a long time. But now we hear that chairs, tables, and even beds can be made of paper. With paper boots and shoes, you can wear paper hats, paper dresses, and paper raincoats. When you have used them once, you throw them away and buy new ones. Paper is also good for keeping you warm. The latest use in paper seems to be paper houses. There are not small houses for children to play in, but real big houses for people to live in. You can buy a house with three main rooms for about￥ 500. You can put it up yourself in a few hours, and you can use it for about five years.People have made paper boats, but they have not yet made paper airplanes or cars. Just wait—they probably will. 根据短文内容选择最佳答案。 ( )31. The underlined word “advanced" in Paragraph(段落) 1 means“______”. A. useful B. important C. developed ( )32.
