21、Instead of getting the latest video game system or meeting a celebrity, a young boy who was diagnosed with a life-threatening illness last year has used his Make-A-Wish opportunity to help the homeless in his community.

Abraham and his mother, Miriam, have a passion for taking care of the homeless around their neighborhood in Jackson, Mississippi. The pair have a history of providing food to the needy every third Saturday, and they recently got added help from the Make-A-Wish foundation in Mississippi after he was diagnosed with a rare disease, aplastic anemia, in 2020.

The condition causes the body to stop producing enough new blood cells, leaving patients exhausted and easier to suffer infection and uncontrolled bleeding. Abraham later experienced a successful bone marrow transplant (骨髓移植) and found out he was qualified to have one of his dreams fulfilled by Make-A-Wish. It didn’t take long for Abraham to think of the perfect choice. He would continue the mission that was important to him and his mom. With the help of the foundation, Abraham fed about 80 people in Jackson in September.

When the homeless people got the plate, some of them would come back and sing to them and thank them. “And it just really feels good; it warms our hearts. And my parents always taught me that it’s a blessing to be a blessing,” Abraham said.

Not only that, but Make-A-Wish said they would help Abraham feed the homeless in Jackson every third Saturday until August 2022, ensuring that he could help even more people in need.

Abraham did receive a few gifts from Make-A-Wish, including a new laptop, a ring light, and a microphone to help him start a channel on a social media platform. He also plans to start a non-profit called “Abraham’s Table” to continue his mission.

22、   A new study has shown how computers and robots powered by artificial intelligence can read human eye movements to “read” human personalities.

The eyes, they say, are the windows to the soul. And if that is true, computers and robots powered by complex artificial intelligence algorithms(算法) may soon have the ability to peer into your soul. That is the result of a new study on the connection between eye movements and personality, conducted by neuroscience researchers based at the University of South Australia and Published in the scientific Journal Frontiers in Neuroscience.

“Eye movements during an everyday task predict aspects of our personality,” wrote the researchers, led by University of South Australia neuroscientist Tobias Loetscher, whose team follows 42 study subjects around the university campus recording their eye movements, then determines their personality traits(特点) with “well-established questionnaires” for determining personality type, according to a summary of the study published by the site Science Daily.

The researchers fed the data into their Al algorithms and found that computers running the algorithms were able to record human eye movements and immediately determine a person's major personality traits, such as “neuroticism, agreeableness, conscientiousness, as well as perceptual(感知的) curiosity”, the scientists wrote.

“The new findings could improve the way human beings interact with their computers and other high-tech devices, even robots, allowing for more natural and realistic social interactions with machines,” Loetscher said.

“People are always looking for improved, personalized services. Today’s robots and computers are not socially aware so they cannot adapt to non-verbal information,” Loetscher said in a statement quoted by Indian Express. This research provides opportunities to develop robots and computers so that they can become more natural, and better at interpreting human social signals.”

The study revealed previously undiscovered relations between specific personality characteristics and specific eye movement tendencies, according to a summary in Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper.

【1】What do the underlined words “peer into” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A. Stare at. B. Understand.

C. Search for. D. Concern about.

【2】How did the researchers conduct the research?

A. It was carried out in a lab.

B. 42 subjects’ eye movements were recorded.

C. The students’ daily movements were tracked.

D. Its subjects’ personalities were determined by computer.

【3】What can we know according to Tobias Loetscher?

A. Robots and computers are socially conscious.

B. People care less about improved, personalized services.

C. Today’s robots and computers can accustom to non-verbal information.

D. The discovery will improve the interaction between human beings and machines.

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Human Personality Traits

B. What Human Eye Movements Are

C. Tell Personalities by Eye Movements.

D. How Humans and Machines Can Interact

23、   Taking an afternoon nap could keep your brain sharp, a new study has said. Adults ages 60 and older who took afternoon naps showed signs of better mental ability compared to those who didn’t nap, according to a study published in General Psychiatry earlier this week.

Researchers analyzed napping habits in 2, 214 older Chinese people and measured their cognitive abilities using several cognitive tests. Participants took the Mini-Mental State Examination and the Beijing version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, both of which test for memory, language and other cognitive abilities. In every category listed in the study, nappers tested statistically higher on average compared to their non-napping counterparts.

Researchers did not gather data from people under 60, so a correlation cannot be drawn between napping and younger generations. The study also noted that there are conflicting studies about the benefits and risks of napping.

Sleeping behaviors can be affected by a multitude of factors, said Dr. David Neubauer, associate professor at Johns Hopkins University. “Daily routines, medication use and sleep disorders can all play a role in how frequently someone takes a nap.” he said.

Neubauer recommended taking a shorter “power nap” of up to 20 minutes to decrease the chances of transitioning into slow-wave sleep, which makes people feel groggy when they wake up. “Napping can be a healthy part of an older adult’s day”, Neubauer acknowledged, but make sure “sleepiness isn’t due to a treatable nighttime sleep disorder.” Older individuals who want to do all they can to preserve their cognitive functioning should put nighttime sleep first.

【1】What is the best way to keep a better cognitive ability for the old?

A．Take a nap every day.

B．Take sleep disorder seriously.

C．Have a good sleep at night.

D．Do exercise regularly.

【2】How did the researchers reach the conclusion?

A．By taking the examinations and assessment.

B．By analyzing napping habits and giving tests.

C．By measuring nappers’ ability and analyzing them.

D．By doing an experiment.

【3】Which has NO effect on one’s sleeping behaviors?

A．Taking a nap.

B．Medicine treatment

C．Sleep problems

D．Everyday activities.

【4】What can we know about “slow-wave sleep”?

A．It appears in short nap up to 20 minutes.

B．People should avoid it in their naps.

C．It is a healthy part of an elder’s day.

D．It was recommended by Neubauer.
