Bruce Campbell, a retired electrical engineer, wanted to change the behavior of mankind by
showing how we can recycle old things into new and practical - and livable ones.
4
For about $220,000, he purchased a Greek airliner -a Boeing 727-400- that logged about
40,000 flights in its peak, Before Campbell got his hands on his Boeing 727 and transformed it into
the airplane home he lives in, this aircraft saw regular use as it transported all kinds of people to all
sorts of destinations.
After the successful transform, he hosted a big DJ dance party with a couple of friends. The
party, called Turbulence: A Dance party at a 727 in the Woods, happened right on the wing! Guest
who attended the party also got the opportunity to take a look at the airplane home. Overall, they
got the attention of 14,000 Facebook users who were interested in what sounded like an incredible
party.
This talented engineer got another airliner and started on his second airplane home during the
beginning of 2018 on the Kyushu Island coast because he wanted it to serve as a safe place for the
local community as well. Part of Bruce Campbell's vision was to make an airliner that doubled as a
lifeboat in case tsunami (海啸) threats were issued. He wanted the general public to find out that
planes are capable of surviving hundreds of years and the cruelest weather conditions thanks to its
sealed pressure technology.
Campbell adored the excitement that he received when he recycled airplanes and hoped that
people would seriously consider it after they got the chance to see his home during tours and events.
He has posted on his website that it is his goal to “inspire a renaissance (复兴) of thought about
how to employ this remarkable resource”.
24. What drew wide public attention to Campbell's first transformed plane?
A. Its high residential comfort level.
B. Its remarkable transporting capacity.
C. The incredibly high transformation cost
D. The Facebook post of a party held on it.
25. What did Campbell think the second plane could serve as?
A. A tsunami warning center.
B. A meeting place for local community.
C. A temporary shelter in disasters.
D. An engineering workshop.
26. Why did Campbell transform the planes?
A. To direct attention to housing problems.
B. To satisfy his scientific curiosity.
C. To advocate a greener life style.
D. To call for participation in recycling.

Five times stronger than steel, spider silk's unique qualities were recognised by the Ancient
Greeks - and more recently, scientists have looked at applications from medicine to engineering.
Now, one Japanese startup, Spiber, is exploring how spider webs could transform the clothing
industry. The biotech company started by making a spider-silk-like material in the lab and has since
expanded its fabric range to include more sustainable alternatives to wool and cashmere, says Kenji
Higashi, head of business development at Spiber.
Spiders create webs by giving out liquid protein that will later change into silk, Kazuhide
Sekiyama and junichi sugahara, Spiber's founders, decided to create a material that is identical to
spider silk. They studied “thousands of different spider species,” as well as other silk-producing
species, and collected a database of silk varieties.
Having successfully produced the spider silk alternative, the team went on to develop a range
of fabrics by changing the protein order. Spiber's fibers are made by fermenting (发酵) water, sugar
and nutrients with specially modified microbes(改良微生物) in steel tanks to produce protein
polymers to be made into a fiber. Later, the team discovered that the spider silk alternative shrinks
(收缩) when wet, so they modified the protein to get a fiber with desirable properties, such as water
proof and increased strength, which is suitable for an outdoor jacket.
Fashion is one of the most polluting industries in the world. It produces around 2.1 billion
metric tons of CO every year. Higashi says Spiber's biodegradable products are predicted to
generate just one-fifth of the carbon emissions of animal-based fibers once they are in mass
production. And it is now developing a process that will transform abandoned clothes made from
natural materials like cotton into the sugars needed for fermentation.
Currently trying to expand its production and getting ready for a full commercial launch of its
products, Spiber hopes its technology will help to “solve some of the big global challenges that
we're facing,” says Higashi.
28. What is a primary purpose of Spiber's research in the lab?
A. To develop new applications of spider silk. B.To invent a replacement for spider silk.
6
C.To transform the structure of spider silk. D. To study silk-producing spider species.
29. How did the team address the shrinking problem?
A. By adapting the protein. B. By diversifying microbes.
C. By wetting the fiber. D. By lengthening fermenting time.
30. What can best describe Spiber's products?
A. Fancy and stylish. B. Costly yet profitable.
C. Strong and sustainable. D. Lightweight yet resource-consuming.
31. What are the last two paragraphs mainly about?
A. The practical application of Spiber's products.
B. The environmental value of Spiber's products.
C. The technical challenges of Spiber's products.
D. The potential markets of Spiber's products.
D
A new study on 26 chimpanzees (黑猩猩) from zoos around the world found that chimpanzee
can recognise family members and long lost friends even after decades of separation.
The participating chimpanzees were given juice while staring at a screen flashing side by side
photos of other chimps. One animal from each pair of photos had lived with the group for at least a
year, while the other was a stranger. An eye-tracking camera recorded where the participants were
looking and for how long. Data showed their eyes rested longer on familiar groupmates, suggesting
“rich recognition of each other.”
There is also evidence that they became more intent when shown a picture of' a chimpanzee
with whom they'd had more positive interactions, compared with conflicting relationships. In the
most impressive case, a 46-year-old chimpanzee named Louise repeatedly demonstrated “intense”
attention upon seeing photographs of her sister Loretta and nephew Erin, whom she hadn't seen in
more than 26 years. The team said Louise's results represent the longest-lasting social memory
documented in any non-human animal to date.
“We tend to see ourselves as unique special creatures with incredible intellectual (智力的)
capacities that are very different from other animals on earth,” said Laura Simone Lewis, a
postdoctoral fellow in Berkeley's psychology department and lead author of the study. “This study
is showing us how similar we are to chimpanzees.” She noted that the findings support the theory
that long-term social memory in humans and modern day chimps has come from “our last common
ancestor that lived somewhere between 5 to 7 million years ago” who also likely had long-term
social memory.
Now that they have definitive evidence that these endangered species possess long-term social
7
memories, researchers have more questions, including whether chimpanzees miss the individuals
they're no longer with, especially their friends and family. “Our study doesn't determine they are
doing this, but it raises questions about the possibility that they may have the ability to do so,”
Lewis said.
32. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The nature of chimps. B. The method of the study.
C. The analysis of the recorded data. D. The layout of experimental equipment.
33. What does the underlined word “intent” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Attentive. B. Doubtful. C. Hesitant. D.Emotional
34. Why is the example of Louise in paragraph 4 mentioned?
A. To stress chimps are as intelligent as human beings.
B. To explain where chimps’ social memory comes from.
C. To better demonstrate the chimps’ memory length
D. To further prove the existence of chimps’ social memory.
35. What will the research team most probably continue to explore?
A. Whether chimps feel strong emotions to their long lost friends,
B. How to strengthen chimps’ long-term social memories.
C. How chimps recognised their close contacts after long separation.
D. Why chimps possess the amazing social memories.

Napping during the day is an ancient custom that is practiced worldwide. Short naps, which
last from 20 to 30 minutes at the right time, can benefit vitality and overall health in countless ways.
Short naps can boost mental functioning and memory, as well as improve vitality, attention
and reaction time. 36________ Because napping seems to improve creative thinking, some
companies have attempted to introduce napping rooms.
What's more, it appears the brain uses nap time to process information gathered throughout the
day. 37______ A study revealed that short naps also helped people become more confident and
sensible, which resulted in better focus, and efficiency at work. Napping may also lead to an
improved ability to learn new skills, such as a golf swing. This is because these memories or skills
are strengthened in the brain during sleep.
38________ Studies show that more consistent sleep will help lower “fight or flight” chemical
in our bodies. As a result, our blood pressure and heart rates are normalized, Napping appears to
8
help this process for some people.
39_________ One condition associated with napping longer than 30 minutes is sleep inertia
(睡后迟钝). This can harm cognitive function from several minutes up to half an hour. Long or late
afternoon naps can lead to difficulties falling asleep during the night. 40_______
So, to maximize benefits while reducing risks, please keep naps short in the early afternoon to
avoid sleep inertia and nighttime sleep disruptions
A. But napping can come with drawbacks as well.
B. The reason for this phenomenon is mostly unknown.
C. Therefore, that appears to enhance problem-solving abilities.
D. Short naps are also linked to increased productivity and creativity.
E. Napping can also be associated with a reduced risk of heart diseases
F. Napping should not serve as an alternative for enough nighttime rest.
G. Besides, for those aged 60 and up, longer naps may increase the risk for heart diseases
