Zhang Xin, vi
21、ce-director and principal investigator at the High Magnetic Field Laboratory of the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, said recently that she had noted far fewer women than men in research institutes. For example, for us here at our institute, about 20 percent of scientists are women at a certain
22、 level 一 say, associate professor level - but at my level its less than 10 percent/ Zhang said.Born in 1979 and a returnee from overseas, Zhang has been focusing on research involving magnetic fields and how to use them to improve human health. Take the magnetic resonance imaging machine fbr example
23、. It has a very strong magnet inside and can help doctors see inside your body. It is the most common high magnetic field found in everyday life,“ said Zhang, who has been working in Hefei, Anhui province, since 2021.She had majored in biomedicine through her school years at home and abroad. I chose
24、 medicine because my grandpa was a very excellent doctor and my parents hoped that I could be a doctor too,“ Zhang said. She accomplished that, just not in the medical field. Instead, she earned a PhD, saying its reasonable that ones initial inspiration might come from the family, but a person shoul
25、d not always follow a path designed by other people.Zhang, who has a daughter and a son, said its regrettable that most women spend much of their lives taking care of their family, including the elderly. In China, pressure is coming from society but also from women themselves,“ she said.I try to tak
26、e advantage of all the help I can get,“ Zhang said, noting that she gets a lot from her parents-in-law. Her husband, who is also her colleague at the physical science institutes in Hefei, also spends as much time as possible with their kids, Zhang said. She encourages more fathers to do the same.Aft

31、 associated with a society. It includes material elements, such as clothing, technology, and housing as well as nonmaterial elements, such as gestures and behavioral norms. Since culture is so broad and humans experience the world in a wide variety of ways, under a general cultural umbrella often ex
32、ist many subcultures.There are a number of subcultures in the United States. If the analogy（类比）of a melting pot is applied to American culture, subcultures might be the individual ingredients in the soup. They are in the same container but have characteristics that distinguish them from one another.
33、 Some elements might be similar, and others might provide contrast. Subcultures exist within the dominant culture of a society.Some of the primary values that define the dominant American culture are individualism, competition, and a hearty work ethic. How is a subculture distinguished from the domi
34、nant culture? It is part of the main culture, but its members share one or more common differences. Those differences may be due to shared experiences, customs, traits, or preferences, among other things.Some subcultures are identified by certain qualifiers such as shared race and ethnicity. Others
35、may form around hobbies. Some subcultures are cultivated in opposition to elements of the dominant culture. Oppositional subcultures may be called countercultures. Subcultures can be distinct, with specific definitions and rules. Others are flexible with liminal memberships.Subcultures in America ra
36、nge from the ubiquitous to the obscure. Members of a subculture typically share common beliefs or lifestyles and sometimes incorporate shared clothing styles. Participation in a subculture might be flexible and temporary or strictly observed. One example of subcultures in America is the punk subcult
37、ure which developed in the 1970s and continues to evolve. Early participants in punk rock culture rejected mainstream cultural influences, including politics, fashion, and stage rock and disco music. The stereotypical characteristics of them include distressed clothing, studded leather, combat boots
38、, and colorfully dyed hair.4. Why melting pot is mentioned in the passage?A. To explain how subcultures coexist.B. To explain why subcultures exist in America.C.

FavorableWhen SpaceXs 20th mission lifted off to the International Space Station, beating heart cells were along forthe ride. After 22 day
41、s, the heart cells were returned to Earth - and they were still beating. This experiment marks a significant step toward helping heart patients on Earth in the future.The beating heart cells, called cardiomyocytes （心肌细胞）,were grown from stem cells. “Theyre like magic cells because they can turn into
42、 almost all kinds of cells in our body, including beating heart cells. The heart cells have the potential to treat heart disease for kids and adults. But to repair a damaged heart, we will need a lot more cardiomyocytes. And sometimes its really hard to get that many cells to grow,“ said Chunhui Xu,
43、 researcher and associate professor of pediatrics at Emory University School of Medicine.When her experiment using simulated zero-gravity on Earth showed promising steps toward quickly and safely producing cardiomyocytes, Xu saw space as the proving ground. Her experiment was chosen to fly on the sp
44、ace station in order to determine how the absence of gravity impacts stem cells that are essentially turned into heart cells.The heart cells were frozen, and then thawed（解冻）once they reached the station. This allowed the cells to grow in space fbr 21 days. NASA astronaut Jessica Meir oversaw the exp
45、eriment. This one-of-a-kind place is what makes doing research on the International Space Station so incredibly special. We can test things that we cant do anywhere on Earth,“ Meir said.When these live cells returned to Earth, Xu and her colleagues discovered that the stem cells grow faster in zero
46、gravity. This rapid ability to grow cardiomyocytes could generate a large number of healthy heart cells for children and adults with various heart diseases. With these new findings, the research could lead a more efficient and cost-effective way to develop the heart cells on Earth for patients in ne
47、ed. The cells have great potential to treat children and adults. And the cells could also be used to test new therapies and speed up the development of safe drugs, Xu said.7. What can we know about the experiment conducted in the International Space Station?A. It lasted 20 days in space.B. It found
48、a cure for heart attacks.C. It was watched over by Chunhui Xu.D. It means a lot to heart patients on earth.8. Why did Chunhui Xu send her experiment to space?A. To try heart transplant in space.B. To test a way to speed up stem cell growth.C. To understand how human hearts change in space.D. To stud
49、y the effects of microgravity on brain cells.9. What did Xu and her colleagues find?A Its really hard to get stem cells to grow on the space station.B. The heart cells were easy to froze and thaw on the space station.C. Zero gravity is ideal for stem cells to grow.D. It is costly to grow stem cells.10. What can the new findings contribute to?A.
