But before he ever came up with the theory of relativity, Einstein was a 23-year-old patent clerk, working for the minimum wage. Young Einstein decided to e
2、arn some extra cash tutoring physics. He put up an ad, and Maurice Solovine, a student of philosophy, responded. The two did not do much traditional studying, but instead chatted about philosophy. Conrad Habicht, a mathematician and a friend of Einstein, joined their debates. They jokingly called th

Henri Poincare.Growing up in rural Jiangsu Province, Yu Jigao showed a strong interest in fine arts at an early age and studied on his own for years. His hard
13、 work paid off later. In the early 1950s, he made his way to Nanjing Normal University, where he learned painting theories and techniques from some famous artists. It was then that Yu found his lifelong artistic zeal for gongbi. Gongbi paintings usually describe birds and flowers, symbols of beauty
14、and joy, in an artistic way with intense color.After graduation from the art school in 1957, Yu began his professional career at the Chinese Painting Institute of Jiangsu. He has since published a series of art collections. Since 1959, Yu has contributed a series of works to many important sites. Yu
15、s works have also been displayed in a range of national and international exhibitions. From 1986 to 1997, he held his exhibitions in such places as Beijing, Guangzhou and New York. Both the themes and artistic techniques have won widespread praise in the past years.While observing traditional rules,
16、 he uses accurate lines, powerful brush movements as well as the interplay between dark and light to represent the harmony of nature. Though he adopts a realistic style, he tries to enrich his works with spiritual beauty through his brush. Yu says, “That feeling turns into the images of singing bird
17、s and elegant flowers in my paintings.” Thanks to his careful observation of nature and artistic sensitivity, Yu is able to combine realistic description with artistic expression in his brushwork.Now as deputy director of the Academy of Chinese Gongbi Painting of Flowers andBirds and a national top-
18、level artist, Yu maintains a simple and easy-going style. In addition to artistic creation, Yu has devoted himself to promoting his painting style as the cultural heritage of China. Art is part of my life J Yu says. I am proud to be a flower-bird painter. I hope to create a bright future for it thro

The moment you ask for directions, you reveal that you are lost. Seeking assistance can feel like you are broadcasting your incompetence. New
22、 research suggests that as early as seven, children begin to connect asking for help with looking incompetent in front of others for the same reason.To learn more about how children think about reputation, researchers prepared simple stories and then asked children questions about the scenes to allo
23、w kids to present their thinking. They asked 576 children, aged four to nine, to predict the behavior of two kids in a story. One of the characters genuinely wanted to be smart, and the other merely wanted to seem smart to others. They told children that both kids did poorly on a test. They then ask
24、ed which of these characters would be more likely to raise their hand in front of their class or to ask the teacher for help. The four-year-old children were equally likely to choose either of the two kids as the one who would seek help. But by age seven or eight, children thought that the kid who w
25、anted to seem smart would be less likely to ask for assistance. When assistance could be sought privately, children thought both characters were equally likely to ask for it.The research shows that children may avoid seeking help when others are present. Their unwillingness can seriously stop academ
26、ic progress. To improve in any field, one must work hard, take on challenging tasks and ask questions. These efforts can be difficult when someone is concerned with their appearance to others.Such barriers likely require reputation-based solutions. First, adults should lower the social risks of seek
27、ing help. For instance, teachers can give children more opportunities to seek assistance privately. Parents can point out how a childs question starts a valuable conversation in which the entire family get to talk and learn together. Adults can praise kids for seeking assistance. These responses sen
28、d a strong signal that other people accept and attach importance to willingness to ask for aid and that seeking help is part of a path to success.8 . Why do children fear to ask others for help?A. They always suffer rejection.B , They are afraid of losing face.C. They make others feel embarrassed.D.
29、 They lack communicative competence.9. How did the researchers get their result?A. By doing comparative analysis.B , By referring to previous data.C. By seeking help from teachers.D. By grouping adults and kids.10. What does the research show about children?A. They care less about their appearance t
30、han before.B , They prefer helping others to being helped.C. They are more willing to seek help in public.D. They tend to ask for assistance in private.11. What can people do to remove childrens reputation-based barriers?A. Expose children to social risks.B Value childrens efforts to get help.C. Poi
31、nt out childrens errors in the conversation.D. Create opportunities for children to seek help openly.From airplanes to apartments, most spaces are now designed with sound-absorbing materials that help decrease various sounds of everyday life. But most of the sound-absorbing materials that can cancel
32、 out human voices, traffic noise and music are made from plastic foams （泡沫）that arent easily recycled or degraded. Now, researchers reporting in ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering have created a biodegradable film （薄膜）obtained from seaweed, which effectively absorbs sounds in this range.Control
33、ling and optimizing the way sound moves throughout a room is key to creating functional spaces. Foam sound-absorbing panels are a common solution, and they come in a variety of materials and thicknesses tailored to specific sound requirements. Most of these foams, however, are made from a type of pl
34、astic material and other chemical substances that are obtained from natural-oil or petrol. To avoid petrochemicals, researchers have explored more renewable sources and biodegradable sound-absorbing alternatives. But many current options are made from plant fibers that dont effectively decrease nois
35、es in the most useful range of sound frequencies, or they are too thick or difficult to produce. So, Chindams team wanted to develop a biodegradable material from a plant, which would be simple to produce and could absorb a range of sounds.The team created films of agar （琼月旨），a material that comes f
36、rom seaweed, along with other additives developed from plants and varied the thickness of the films. After running the materials through a battery of tests, the researchers measured how well the films reduced sound across a range of frequencies. To do this, the team created a sound tube in which a s
37、peaker is placed at one end, and the test film is fitted over the other end. Microphones in the middle of the tube measured the amount of sound sent by the speaker and the amount of sound reflected off the film. These experiments showed that the films with many small holes made with the highest conc
38、entrations of agar had the greatest sound-absorbing qualities and performed similarly to traditional sound-absorbing foams. The researchers plan to explore ways to change the agar films to give them other desirable properties, such as flame resistance, and will explore other biologically obtained fi
39、lm materials.12. What is the disadvantage of plastic foams?A. They take up too much space.B , They cannot absorb sounds effectively.C. They have difficulty achieving sustainable use.D. They cannot meet specific sound requirements.13. Which kind of sound-absorbing material would Chindams team develop
40、?A. One made from plant fibers.B. One produced toughly and tiredly.C. One developed from petrochemicals.D. One obtained easily and effectively.14. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The purpose of film research.B. A series of tests on the new material.C. A tool of measuring the film thicknes

Here are a few tips for helping teens understand the importance of money management.Family goal settingSetting financial goals as a family can be a great way to solve a current money problem and
43、 involve the whole family in cutting back on spending. 16 They can also belarge such as saving for a family vacation. The idea is to get children and parents to work together toward a common financial goal.17Letting teens pay for goods or services will help them develop healthy financial habits.Bala
