24、   Can you write the Chinese character（汉字）"ganga" (embarrassment) correctly? Do you know how to write characters like "tiaozhou"(broom)?

If you can't, you're not alone. Nowadays, most people are typing into computers instead of writing on paper. We type Chinese characters largely according to their pronunciation. The result is to recognize（认出）characters without remembering how to write them. China Youth Daily did a survey of 2,517 people, in which 90 percent said they had once forgotten how to write a common Chinese character.

Compared to adults, teenagers are better at writing Chinese characters because they spend more time learning and practicing at school. However, the influence of digital（数字的）technology cannot be ignored（忽视）, according to He Yu, head of a research team for Chinese teaching at a Beijing high school. "Many students are obsessed with digital tools such as mobile phones and computers to help with their studies. As a result, too much use of these tools will make students too lazy to think and write. " he said Such worries have brought about：popular TV show titled Chinese Spelling Hero, which pays attention to Chinese character writing among teenagers.

In April, the Ministry of Education called for better calligraphy（书法）education in schools.

Organizations like the China Calligraphers Association are also working to train more teachers in calligraphy. Interestingly, calligraphy teachers can't always ignore the influence of modern technology. Shen Bin is a calligraphy teacher at a primary school in Beijing. She said that it's common for teachers like her to forget certain words. "My calligraphy class is also a good chance for me to remember how to write. " she said.

25、Culture Insider: Children’s Games in Ancient China

26、David Bennett, a 57-year-old man from the US, received the world’s first pig heart transplant (移植) on January 7th, 2022. He died two months later. It may sound like a failure, but it actually is a big step forward for xenotransplantation (异种器官移植).

Xenotransplantation has been a hot topic in medical research for many years. Doctors and scientists look for ways to solve the big problem of organ (器官) transplant waiting lists. In the US alone, over 100,000 patients are on a list waiting for new organs. Many will die before getting their chance to receive a heart, a kidney (肾) or other important organs. As a result, medical science has turned to animal organs.

There have been few successful xenotransplantation cases since the early 20th century. Usually, patients’ bodies reject (排斥) the animal organs. Bennett lived much longer than other xenotransplantation patients. That’s because the scientists removed pig genes (基因) that would cause fast rejection. Then they added human genes to help the body accept the organ.

In fact, Bennett’s case was not the only success. “A lot of new information that doctors got through other organ transplants will come out. The development of this field will benefit from it and move forward at a faster speed.” Muhammad Mohiuddin, director of the transplant program, told The Guardian.

【1】How long did David Bennett live after the pig heart transplant?

A．9 months.

B．3 months.

C．2 months.

D．1 month.

【2】Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?

A．Doctors stop using animal organs because of David Bennett’s death.

B．Animal organs help solve the problem of organ transplant waiting lists.

C．Compared with human organs, animal organs are easier to get.

D．Many patients died because of the organ transplant.

【3】________ may be the main problem of xenotransplantation.

A．The failure of David Bennett’s operation

B．The high price of organs

C．The ways of getting organs

D．The body’s rejection

【4】The underlined word “benefit” in this passage means ________.

A．improve

B．exchange

C．manage

D．steal

【5】Why does the writer write the passage?

A．To remind us that it’s a waste of time to research xenotransplantation more.

B．To show that it’s worth researching xenotransplantation.

C．To tell us it’s too difficult to carry on xenotransplantation.

D．To warn that it’s harmful to use animal organs.
