10、d a book from every country in a year to find out what I was missing.So I created a blog called “A Year of Reading the World” and asked for suggestions of titles that I could read in English.The response was amazing. Before I knew it, people all over the planet were suggesting ideas and offering to
11、help. Some posted titles of books from their home countries. Others did hours of research on my behalf. In addition, several writers, like Panamas Juan David Morgan, sent me unpublished translations of their novels, giving me a rare opportunity to read works otherwise unavailable to the 62 percent o
12、f Britons who only speak English. Even with such an extraordinary team of bibliophiles (藏书家) behind me, however, sourcing books was no easy task.This was particularly true for Portuguese-speaking African countries. Theres precious little to offer as far as states such as the Comoros, Madagascar and
13、Mozambique I had to rely on unpublished manuscripts (手稿) for several of these.Then there were places where stories are rarely written down. If youre after a good story in the Marshall Islands, for example, youre more likely to go and hear one of the local storytellers than you are to pick up a book.
14、All in all, tracking down stories like these took as much time as the reading. It was tough to fit it all in around work and many were the nights when I sat bleary-eyed (困倦而视线模糊的) into the small hours to make sure I stuck to my target of reading one book every 1.87 days.But the effort was worth it.
15、As I made my way through the planets literary landscapes, extraordinary things started to happen. Far from simply armchair traveling, I found I was inhabiting the mental space of the storytellers. It took me inside the thoughts of individuals living far away and showed me the world through their eye
16、s. These stories not only opened my mind to the different aspects of life in other places, but opened my heart to the way people there might feel.Lands that had once seemed exotic and remote became close and familiar to me places I could identify with. At its best, I learned, fiction makes the world
17、 real.21. What can we learn about the readers of the blog “A Year of Reading the World”?A. They should feel free to upload their book reviews.B They are welcome to share their storytelling skills.C. They are asked to give advice on what book to read about their country.D. They have to send a list of
18、 their favorite books from other countries.22. Why is the literature of the Marshall Islands rarely known to the world?A. The quality of literature there is very poor.B. Most of its literature is written in Portuguese.C. Writers there are unwilling to publish their manuscripts.D. The countrys litera
19、ture is mostly in the form of oral stories.23. Which of the following would the author probably agree with?A. She spent far more time searching for books than reading them.B. She found the reading challenge exhausting but rewarding.C. Book researchers overseas could help her with her challenge.D. Re
20、ading foreign books would spare her the trouble of traveling.BIt might sound like an imaginary character out of a book: The goldfish who could drive. But its real. Israeli researchers created a robotic car and reported that they taught fish to navigate it on land.The team had been dreaming up ways t
21、o test fish navigation (航行) for a while, according to Shachar Givon, first author of the published study.“We are always trying to challenge ourselves and our fish. The idea of having the fish navigate on land seemed exactly like the impossible sort of challenge we like to tackle. Lucky for us, it wa
22、s not so impossible,” said Givon.This experiment is known as “domain transfer methodology(方法论)”, which means determining whether a species is able to perform tasks outside its natural environment.First, the team created a water-filled tank on wheels that moved in response to the movements of the fis
23、h. Then they taught the goldfish how to drive it.The fish first had to connect their own swimming movements to the movements of the vehicle so they could navigate it. Then they were given a destination: a pink target board in a room that resulted in a food reward when the vehicle touched it. A compu
24、terized camera system attached to this “fish operated vehicle” recorded and translated the fishs swimming directions.After several days of training, the fish successfully navigated the vehicle to the target from different starting positions in the room even if they faced obstacles like false targets
25、 or hitting a wall. Some did particularly well.Although previous studies have shown that fish can navigate within water-related environments, the authors suggest this study shows the ability to navigate is universal to all species and independent of the environment.By controlling different variables
26、 (变量), the team also showed that the fish used a combination of cues to navigate, including the targets color and location.24. Which research process is mentioned in the experiment?A. A watery tank that could move in water was created.B. A computerized system to guide the fish was adopted.C. The fis
27、h were rewarded when they performed correctly.D. The vehicles were navigated from the same starting positions.25. Whats the assumed finding of Givons study?A. Some fish can drive the car without cues.B. Fish cannot navigate the car when meeting obstacles.C. The goldfish have better navigational skil
28、ls than other fish.D. The ability to navigate is unattached to the environment.26. What can be the best title for the text?A. All Species Can NavigateB. Goldfish Turn Out to Be Real DriversC. Fish Navigation Meets New ChallengesD Animal Experiments Are Essential in ResearchCUnlike any other art form
29、, movies require hundreds of people and piles of money. With such financial risks, studios want to attract as many people as possible and make a big profit. I often complain that chasing profits ruins movies. Imagine if Italian painter Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) had to satisfy investors for The L
30、ast Supper.In May, Paramount released its trailer (预告片) for a live-action Sonic the Hedgehog movie. Everyone was excited, including me. I love this character, in part because hes ridiculous. Hedgehogs (刺猬) arent fast, nor are they blue. Had the games designers ever actually seen a hedgehog? Who care
31、s? Sonic has always looked cool. Nobody would play a video game featuring a realistic hedgehog character.When I saw the movie trailer, though, I worried. Sonics eyes were too far apart and his big teeth looked like they would eat my fingers. His body looked like a child wearing pajamas(睡衣). Sonic di
32、dnt look cool. He looked like the half-human result of a failed genetic experiment.You know the internet. People there will fight you for saying the sky is blue. This time, however, the internet stood together: Sonic looked TERRIBLE. People joked about it all over social media. Paramount couldnt ign
33、ore this online outrage and quickly announced a redesign, at great cost to the company.At first, I thought it was awesome. Back when I was a kid, there was no social media. We would have been stuck with creepy, crappy (怪异且蹩脚的) Sonic and his terrifying teeth. After the redesign, Sonic looks cooler th
34、an ever. Im glad the studio broke its budget to get Sonic right.But Im a little worried, too. What if this starts a trend? What if directors keep going to Sina Weibo or Twitter to make people happy? One thing Ive learned in life is that if you try to make everybody happy, nobody will be happy.If an
35、art form only exists to make money by giving audiences what they expect, can we really call it “art” anymore? Some of my favorite movies are ones that nobody liked at first. Usually, what makes them good is the same thing that made them unpopular. Studios might end up with lots of money but we would
