Dorothy was walking along the ycllow rond when she saw a scarecrow
(稻草人)standing in a fiold.His old hat was pushed to one side.and his
painted face looked strangely friendly.When Dorothy came closer,onc of his
cyes seemed to wink.
"Did you speak?"Dorothy asked in surprise.
"No,"said the Scarecrow,'ut I would like to."
Dorothy helped him down from the pole.The Scarecrow moved his arms
and legs happily,as if he had just discovered the world.Then he told Dorothy
his great trouble:his head was full of straw,so he believed he had no brain.
'T want to go to the Emerald City,"Dorothy said."The Wizard may help me get home."
"Then I will go with you,"said the Scarecrow."Perhaps he can give me a brain."
As they walked,Dorothy noticed something odd.The Scarecrow said he was foolish,but he
asked careful questions.When the road became rough(高低不平的),he thought of a safer way
across.When Dorothy felt worried,he spoke gently and helped her keep going.
"You seem to think quite well,"Dorothy said.
The Scarecrow shook his head."That cannot be true.If I had a brain,I would know it."
Dorothy did not argue.She only smiled and walked beside him.
The reader may smile too,because the Scarecrow's problem is not that he cannot think.It is
that he cannot realize his own thinking.Sometimes people search far away for something that has
already begun to grow inside them.

A.To find Dorothy's home.
B.To ask the Wizard for a brain.
C.To become the ruler of the city.
D.To buy a new hat.

A.strange.
B.dangerous.
C.noisy.
D.expensive.
16.What can we infer from Dorothy's smile?
A.She thinks the Scarecrow is completely foolish.
B.She knows the Wizard is not real.
C.She notices that the Scarecrow already thinks well.
D She wants to laugh loudly at him.
17.What is the best lesson of the passage?

B.A person may already have a quality before he believes it.
C.Straw is better than a real brain.
D.Friendly people should not travel together.

about getting into trouble in the wild,
especially since I'm not sure how to
properly send an emergency signal

For example,if I were to get lost
outdoors and couldn't get a signal on

An old photo can take you back to a past moment by allowing
you to look at your memories.But what if you could smell your
memories,too?Or even someone else's?
MIT Media Lab researcher Cyrus Clarke is doing so with the
Anemoia Device(设备),a“scent--memory''machine that uses AI to
turn photos into different smells.
At the top of the machine,a user puts in a photo.Then,an
AI-powered computer in the middle part makes a short description of what is in the picture.The
user can change this deseription by turning three knobs.Each knob (controls one thing:
perspective.nme,and feeling.These choices decide what the smell will be like.Finally,the Al
device creates the.smell based on 50 different smells and sends it out from the bottom Just like
that,you can now smell memories that might not be your own,or that you never actually
experienced.
Unlike sight and hearing,our sense of smell is more complex(复杂的),which made it hard
to turn into digital data until recently.Now,with the help of Al,this is possible.
What makes the Anemoia Device special is its focus on human experience.Unlike some
technology that can make people feel less connected,this device helps users think deeply and feel
real memories."Today,our memories are often kept in computers and phones-we can see them,
but we do not really feel them.I want to change that,"Clarke says.
41.Put the steps in the correct order.(2)
A.The AI device makes the smell and sends it out.
B.The user turns three knobs.
C.The user puts a photo into the machine.
D.The computer makes a description of the photo.

The world knows Sherlock Holmes because of the British writer
Arthur Conan Doyle and his detective book series about Holmes.But the
West knows Di Renjie or Judge Dee,China's Sherlock Holmes,thanks to
软唐
Dutch sinologist(汉学家)Robert van Gulik and his great work Celebrated
公
公g
Cases of Judge Dee.
Robert came to know Dee,a character based on Di Renjie from the
Tang Dynasty(朝代),and the novel Di Gong An when he was working in
ra
China in the 1940s.He had great admiration for Dee,so he translated
译)the book into English.And then he used its style to make up his own original(原创的)
historical mystery stories about Judge Dee.
Between 1950 and 1967,Robert wrote 16 novels and 8 short stories.In the series,he
described cases solved by Judge Dee.He also introduced plenty of culture and customs of the
Tang Dynasty.
Once the novel came out ()it won western people's hearts.It has been translated into
over 10 languages and has sold millions of copies worldwide.It has greatly helped the wester
people get a better understanding of China.Besides,many adaptations ()spured by the
novel have been made around the world including China.
"read the stories when I was 10 or 11 years old.It didn't mean very much to me at that time.
In later life,I have re-read the stories several times and discovered how special Judge Dee was as
described by my father.Between the lines,there is a lot of wisdom in the writing,"said Thomas
van Gulik,son of Robert van Gulik.
In the eyes of Thomas,it's fantastic that his father brought the master detective of the Tang
Dynasty,Di Renjie,back to life in the Judge Dee crime novels."If he were still alivo now,I think
he would be very proud that his stories are now so popular,"he said.
