　　Every year in early April, tens of thousands of people in China visit the tombs of their parents, grandparents and ancestors. It is Tomb Sweeping Day, the traditional Chinese festival to remember the dead.

　　Tomb Sweeping Day falls on April 4 this year. On the day, Chinese families will sweep the tombs and clean away the grass around them. Then they burn paper money and put flowers and fruit in front of the tombs. They hope the dead can enjoy them and bring the family good luck.

　　However, it is not only the Chinese who remember the dead. People in other countries also have festivals for the dead.

　　In Japan, O-Bon Festival(盂兰盆节) is one of the most important festivals. It is held from the August 13 to 16. It is also a holiday that serves as a family reunion. During O-Bon, Japanese people return to their hometown and visit their ancestors’ tombs. They also believe their ancestors’ spirits return home to be reunited with their family. People perform a “bon odori” dance (盆舞) to welcome the spirits. On the last day of O-Bon, they put paper lanterns in a river to send off the spirits.

　　In Russia, people remember their ancestors on the Day of Rejoicing(欣喜). It’s usually in late April or early May. The name of this festival means birth and happiness. Russians believe that people shouldn’t feel sad for the dead because death means birth in another world. On the Day of Rejoicing, Russian people draw beautiful pictures on eggs and put them in front of the tombs. After that they have a picnic together. They hope for a good life for both the living and the dead.

　　Some people seem to have extraordinary(非凡的) memories. Zheng Aiqiang, a “memory athlete” TV show Super Brain, can remember 2,660 numbers in just one hour!

　　You would think people like this have special brains. But according to a recent study by researchers from the United States and the Netherland(荷兰), the brain structure of ordinary people and 23 of the world’s leading memory athletes shows no difference.

　　That’s because good memories can be trained. New research in the journal Neuron (《神经元》) suggests that you can become a super memorizer with just six weeks of hard training.

　　Researchers found that a technique(技巧) called loci, invented by the ancient Greeks, can greatly help improve memory.

　　By using loci, you are using your imagination to improve the brain’s memory networks. You can link something you need to remember with a place that you know very well. For example, to remember a list of numbers, imagine yourself walking through your house. Each thing is linked to a number. For example, zero could be the handle on the door and five could be the painting on the wall.

　　In one study, some ordinary people were given 20 minutes to remember 72 nouns. First they could only remember 26 words. But when they were taught loci, they could remember 62 words.

　　“Not everyone can become a memory champion. But everyone using the technique can improve a lot from the level they are at,” said Boris Konrad, one of the researchers in the study.

　　20. According to the study, ____________.

　　a. memory athletes have special brains

　　b. ordinary people and memory athletes have similar brain structures

　　c. hard training can make a person a super memorizer

　　d. the ancient Greeks had the most powerful memory at that time

　　A. ab B. bc C.cd D.ac

　　21. What does the underlined word “link” mean?

　　A. 关联 B. 理解 C. 归类 D. 排序

　　22. When using loci to remember something, you link the thing with a _______.

　　A. place B. number C. name D. painting

　　23. Which of the following about the study is NOT TRUE?

　　A. People were given 20 minutes to remember the 72 words.

　　B. They could remember 26 words in their own way.

　　C. They could remember all the words by using loci.

　　D. Loci helped them remember 36 more words.

　　C

　　Flies are buzzing. Most people think they are dirty and annoying. But in Bryan Lessard’s eyes, flies are beautiful insects with great abilities.

　　Lessard is a researcher at Australia’s CSIRO (联邦科学与工业研究组织). He is an expert on flies. According to Lessard, more than 159,000 types of flies have been found around the world. The number forms 10-15 percent of all known animals on Earth!

　　Shocked? The truth is that you can never get away from flies, Lessard says. If you are a chocolate lover, you really should thank flies. Because there would be no chocolate without them!

　　A tiny kind of fly is the only known pollinator(授粉者) of the flower of the coco plant. These special flies are native to countries that are rich in cocoa, such as Brazil and Ecuador. They play a great role in the world’s big sales of chocolates. Flies, as well as some other insects, also pollinate Australia’s tea trees. Flies are a huge driver of the economy, but we take them for granted.

　　Flies can also be useful in other cool ways. Take black soldier flies for example, scientists in Australia, India and US are turning black soldier fly larvae(幼虫) into a nutritious feed for livestock(家禽). The larvae are 45 percent protein. They find that chickens fed on the larvae grow larger, and don’t experience any harmful side effects. As well as that, Chinese researchers from Wuhan Huazhong Agricultural University have made oil from the black soldier fly larvae and turned the liquid into a form of biodiesel(生物柴油). So someday our cars could be powered by flies!

　　24. Which of the following about flies is NOT TRUE according to Lessard?

　　A. They are the dirtiest animals in the world.

　　B. Over 159,000 species of flies have been found.

　　C. They make up 10-15 percent of known animals on Earth.

　　D. It’s impossible for humans to get away from them.

　　25. What does the second last paragraph talk about?

　　A.How chocolate is made from the cocoa plant.

　　B. Flies are important for cocoa plants and tea trees.

　　C. Why there are special flies in some countries.

　　D. People don’t know much about flies.

　　26. Scientists found that black soldier fly larvae _____________.

　　A.can be a great feed for livestock

　　B. are rich in 54 percent protein

　　C. can help chickens grow healthily

　　D. can produce oil to power a car

　　D

　　How nice are you? Do you give money to homeless people? Do you offer your seat to someone in need on a bus?

　　Many people believe that confident people think more highly of themselves, while those who have low self-esteem(自尊) think less of their qualities. However, a new study says it might not be true, reported the Guardian.

　　The study was done by Jonathan Freeman, a psychologist professor from the University of London, UK. He found that 98 percent of British people consider themselves to be among the nicest 50 percent of the population.

　　In the study, Freeman first asked some people to rate their own niceness. Then he got people to answer questions like “Do you give directions to strangers?” and “ Have you ever donated blood?” The results showed that people are not as nice as they think they are. Two thirds of them seldom helped other carry shopping bags, and only a quarter of them donated blood.

　　In another study by psychologists from universities in Chicago and Virginia, US, some people were shown pictures of themselves. Some pictures had been slightly changed to make them appear more attractive. When asked to pick the unchanged pictures, people usually choose the more attractive ones.

　　So, why do we think we’re nicer than we actually are?

　　There are many theories(理论). A popular one says we unconsciously(无意识地) deceive(欺骗) ourselves, so that we can get confidence without knowing lying to ourselves or each other.

　　How can we solve it? Other studies show that there is a simple way: feedback. Compare others’ opinions toward yourself with your own and you will see a clearer picture.

　　27. What did the new study find?

　　A.confident people have more good qualities.

　　B. People with low self-esteem are mostly not nice.

　　C. People are not as nice as they think they are.

　　D. Confident people don’t like those with low self-esteem.

　　28. Which of the following about Freeman’s study is NOT true?

　　A. Freeman is a British psychologist.

　　B. About 98 percent of British people think they are nice people.

　　C. The people answered some questions about niceness.

　　D. One fourth of the people helped others carry heavy bags.

　　28. According to the theory, people chose the more attractive pictures of themselves

　　because _____________.

　　A. they were not happy with their looks

　　B. it was hard to tell small differences

　　C. they lied to themselves without knowing it

　　D. They wanted themselves to look good.

　　30. What does the story mainly talk about?

　　A. How to be a nicer person. B. Others’ opinions toward you.

　　C. How to know ourselves well. D. Peoples’ opinions of their own niceness.
