one study shows that babies can learn before they are born .The researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant (怀孕)woman .Then ,they played a recording of a short story .On the day the baby was born ,the researchers tried to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother .they did this by placing a device (装置)in the mouth of the newborn baby .

26、Does Fame Drive You Crazy

Although being famous might sound like a dream comes true, today s stars, feeling like zoo animals, face pressures that few of us can imagine. They are at the center of much of the world’s attention. Paparazzi (狗仔队) camp outside their homes, cameras ready. Tabloids (小报) publish thrilling stories about their personal lives. Just imagine not being able to do anything without being photographed or interrupted for a signature (签名)!

According to psychologist Christina Villarreal, celebrities—famous people—worry constantly (不断地) about their public appearance. Eventually, they start to lose track of who they really are, seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them, not as the people they were before everyone knew their names. “Over time,” Villarreal says, “they feel separated and alone.”

The phenomenon (现象) of tracking celebrities has been around for ages. In the 4th century B. C, painters followed Alexander the Great into battle, hoping to picture his victories for his admirers. When Charles Dickens visited America in the 19th century, his works attracted thousands of fans, leading him to complain about his lack of privacy. Tabloids of the 1920s ran articles about film-stars in much the same way that modern websites do.

Being famous people today, however, is a lot more difficult than it used to be. Superstars cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern cameras. When they say something silly or do something ridiculous, there is always the Internet to spread the news in minutes and keep their “story” alive forever.

If fame is so troublesome, why aren’t all celebrities running away from it? The answer is there are still ways to deal with it. Some stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping away from big cities. They focus not on how famous they are but on what they love to do or whatever made them famous in the first place.

Sometimes a few celebrities can get a little justice. Still, even stars who enjoy full justice often complain about how hard their lives are. They are tired of being famous already.

【1】It can be learned from the passage that stars today ________.

A.are often misunderstood by the public

B.can no longer have their privacy protected

C.spend too much on their public appearance

D.care little about how they have come into fame

【2】What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A.Great heroes of the past were generally admired.

B.Well-known actors are usually targets of tabloids.

C.The problem faced by celebrities has a long history.

D.Works of popular writers often have a lot of readers.

【3】What makes it much harder to be a celebrity today?

A.Availability of modern media. B.Huge population of fans.

C.Not enough social recognition. D.Lack of favorable chances.

【4】What is author’s attitude toward modem celebrity?

A.Sincere. B.Doubtful. C.Sympathetic. D.Disapproving.

27、On Dec 3rd, Time magazine announced that 15-year old scientist Gitanjali Rao was its Kid of the Year for 2020. Gitanjali was chosen from over 5,000 young leaders for her scientific work and for inspiring others to also create change.

Time magazine has long been famous for its “Person of the Year”, which highlights someone who really made a difference during the year. Last year, climate activist Greta Thunberg became the first person under 25 to be chosen as Time’s Person of the Year.

This year, the magazine decided to recognize young leaders in the United States, with its first kids between ever Kid of the Year choice. Time worked with the TV channel Nickelodeon to look at the ages of 8 and 16 who were really making a difference, no matter how small.

Andrea Delbanco, the editor of TIME for Kids, says “Small steps can lead to big change. These are everyday kids making change in their communities.”

When Gitanjali was 11, she invented a system for testing drinking water for lead. Lead is a dangerous metal that’s sometimes found in drinking water especially in places with older pipes. The invention earned her the title of America’s ‘Top Young Scientist’ in the Discovery Education 3M Young Scientist Challenge.

One of Gitanjali’s more recent creations is an app called Kindly, which she hopes will help cut down on online bullying. The program helps filter (过滤) messages that may be hurtful before they get sent. Kindly is also available as an extension (扩展插件) for the web browser Chrome.

One thing that really impressed Time’s judges was the efforts Gitanjali has made to influence others. She’s worked with schools, clubs, museums, and other groups around the world to teach over 30,000 other young people how to come up with their own solutions to problems.

“I don’t look like your typical scientist,” she says. That’s one reason she works so hard to encourage others to make their own changes in the world. “It’s not easy when you don’t see anyone else like you. So I really want to put out that message: If I can do it, you can do it, and anyone can do it.”

B．To cut down on online bullying.

C．To serve as an extension for Chrome.

D．To help filter hurtful messages beforehand.

【4】What can we infer from the article about the decisive (决定性的) factor that Gitanjai was chosen?

B．Her creations that have benefited people.
