22、Did you know that badminton is also a fast-paced competitive sport? Badminton has been a Summer Olympic sport since 1992. Para-badminton will be included in the 2020 Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo. Here’s what you need to know if your child is interested in badminton.

Badminton is played on a 44-foot-long rectangular (矩形的) court that is 17 feet wide for singles and 20 feet wide for doubles. It is divided in the middle by a net placed 5 feet off the ground, like volleyball, not at ground level like tennis.

In competition, each match is a set of three games played to 21 points. There is a one-minute break when a player or team reaches 11 points, and a two-minute break in between the first and second games and the second and third games.

Age kids can start: About 6 years old.

Best for kids who: Have good skills, are patient and hardworking, and can handle the pressure of one-on-one or two-on-two competition.

Team or individual: Matches can be singles (one-on-one) or doubles (two-on-two).

Fun fact: Badminton is the only sport that has mixed doubles event in the Olympic Games.

Costs: Beginners are expected to pay $30 to $40 for an entry-level racquet (球拍). Badminton shoes are similar in price to other athletic shoes. Join a club or team for lessons. A one-hour group lesson for beginners should cost $20 to $25, with costs increasing as your child moves up the ranks. You will also pay entry fees for competitions.

Time commitment required: Beginners will play for just an hour or two per week.

Potential for injury: Players have a very low risk of injury. Players who wear glasses should use eye protection.

23、Every driver loves sailing through a series of green lights without having to stop and wait at a traffic light. Now, thanks to artificial intelligence, German researchers have found a way to reduce time spent at intersections. And they have gone further than that. This innovation is now being tested in the small German town of Lemgo.

For the research, scientists first studied algorithms taken from a busy intersection to learn about traffic patterns and where improvements were most needed. Actually, it is necessary to adjust waiting time at intersections as conventional methods are inflexible and cannot interpret all traffic flow patterns.

The new AI method uses radar sensors and high-resolution cameras to interpret traffic patterns in real time. They can determine the speed of traffic as well as waiting time and combine this with self-learning algorithms.

The intelligent lights are said to improve traffic flow by 10 to 15 percent, which results in money saved. (The EU estimates that traffic jams create economic damage that adds up to 100 billion Euros a year.) Aside from reducing commuting time, these traffic lights will reduce noise and CO2 emissions from cars moving slowly at intersections.

Another exciting development in this research focuses on pedestrians crossing intersections. Using AI, researchers can confirm how many people are waiting at a pedestrian crossing and whether some of these people will need extra time to cross the street. Using a 3D points cloud, they can tell if someone has disabilities or is elderly without identifying the individual.

Testing will be done until this summer in the German towns of Lemgo and Bielefeld, with researchers optimistic that it will be adopted abroad. “We are the first team in the world to test deep reinforcement learning for traffic light control under real-world conditions. And our testing work has encouraged others to make similar efforts,” scientist Arthur Müller said.

【1】What can the new AI method do?

A．Interpret real-time traffic patterns.

B．Offer directions to lost pedestrians.

C．Control traffic lights without sensors.

D．Identify individual car drivers quickly.

【2】What is paragraph 4 mainly about?

A．Potential economic damage caused by traffic jams.

B．The problems with the AI method in the real world.

C．The benefits brought by the intelligent traffic lights.

D．Pedestrians’ efforts to create a better environment.

【3】How might the AI method benefit the pedestrians with special needs?

A．By leading them to a special crossing.

B．By providing AI-based guiding service.

C．By shutting down the lights for a while.

D．By lengthening the time for green lights.

【4】What can we know about the team’s testing work?

A．It is based on similar testing efforts.

B．It is pioneering and inspiring.

C．It has failed in real conditions.

D．It has been well adopted abroad.

24、Even people who tend to think conventionally, such as accountants, can be creative, a recent study suggests, if they can look at emotional situations in a different light. In a set of experiments, researchers found that conventional thinkers came up with more creative ideas than peers after they practised “emotional reappraisal”. This means viewing a situation through another emotional lens, such as trying to see an anger-inducing event as one that is neutral or hopeful.

The study indicates that creativity is something that can be trained.“Whenever we break away from our existing perspective and try to think about something that’s different from our initial reaction, there’s a creative element to it. If we can practise or train that flexible-thinking muscle, it may help us be more creative over time,”said lead author Lily Zhu, an assistant professor at Washington State University.

For the study, Zhu and her colleagues conducted two similar experiments. In the first experiment with 335 people recruited through a crowdsourcing platform, the participants were first ranked on their openness levels and then shown a film scene designed to elicit (引起) anger. While viewing, they were given different instructions: to suppress their emotions, to think about something else to distract themselves or to try emotional reappraisal—looking at the scene through another lens. Some were also given no instruction on how to regulate their feelings.

After viewing the film, the participants were asked to come up with an idea to use an empty space in their building. Those ideas were then evaluated by a panel of experts who did not know anything about the participants. Ideas such as using the space for “napping capsules” were considered highly creative whereas ideas like opening a similar cafeteria as before were considered low in creativity.

The next experiment had a different group of 177 participants write about an experience that made them angry. They were then tasked with either writing about it again from a different emotional perspective or writing about something else as a distraction.

In both experiments, conventional thinking participants who tried emotional reappraisal came up with more creative ideas than other conventional thinkers who used suppression, distraction or no emotional regulation strategy at all. Notably, for participants who were considered creative thinkers to begin with, emotional reappraisal did not seem to have much effect on their creativity.

As to the implications of the study, Zhu suggested that supervisors in workplace should develop trainings to cultivate creative thinking skills in employees. Individuals can also practise emotional reappraisal when confronted with a crisis or challenge instead of suppressing negative emotions.

【1】Which of the following is most probably an example of emotional reappraisal?

A．Considering an occurrence objectively.

B．Taking one’s success as an opportunity.

C．Distracting oneself from an annoying event.

D．Regarding disappointment as a turning point.

【2】From the study, we know that ________.

A．creative thinkers’ creativity was enhanced after practising emotional reappraisal

B．evaluating experts had adequate information about the research subjects

C．the research findings could be applied to the training of employees

D．the first experiment aimed to select the most creative design

【3】Which would be the best title for the passage?

A．Change Feelings to Boost Creativity

B．Effective Strategies to Manage Emotions

C．Think Over to Explore Creative Potential

D．A New Way to Remove Negative Emotions

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

I live with my husband, Tyrone, in San Luis Obispo, California, about three miles from the beach. Every few years, the humpback whales come into the bay for a few days while migrating. November 2020 was one of those times, so we took out our yellow double kayak (皮艇) to watch the wildlife. We paddled (用桨划船) out the sea and saw seals, dolphins, and about 20 whales feeding on silverfish. We were in amazement watching these graceful giant creatures — each one about 50 feet long—spray through their blowholes.

At the time, my friend Liz was staying with us. The next day, I asked her if she wanted to go out on the water to see them. With no such experience, she refused. “There’s nothing to worry about,” I assured her. “The boat is stable, and we can turn back anytime.” Finally, she agreed to join me. I didn’t want her to miss this great experience and regret it later.

At 8:30 the following morning when we got out on the water, there were already about 15 other kayakers and surfers in the bay. After a half-hour, we had our first whale sighting: two humpbacks swimming toward us. How amazing to be that close to a creature that size, I thought, as the whales dipped under the waterline.

When the whales went down, they left what looked like oil on the water. I figured if we paddled toward that spot, we’d be safe from the whales, since they’d just left. We followed them at a distance—or what I thought was a distance. Suddenly, a tightly packed group of silverfish started jumping out of the water into our kayak. Oh no! We were being attacked.
