The 2024 Nobel Prize Owners

The human brain is generally considered the most powerful and flexible computer. Yet for decades, scientists

have been seeking to change that by machine-learning approaches that imitate (模仿) the brain’s ability. The 2024

Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded on Tuesday to U.S. scientist John Hopfield and British-Canadian scientist

Geoffrey Hinton, each of whom used the tools of physics to develop artificial neural networks (人工神经网络) that

lay bases for many of today’s most advanced artificial intelligence applications.

The Nobel Prize in Chemistry goes to biochemist David Baker, and Google DeepMind scientists Demis

Hassabis and John Jumper, for predicting protein (蛋白质) shapes and functions —and for creating entirely new

ones that can improve health and the environment. The 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded on Wednesday

to three scientists for discovering how proteins do their jobs.

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature will be awarded to Han Kang. In her works, Han Kang faces historical

hurts and unseen sets of rules and in each of her works, shows the weakness of human life. She knows the

connections between body and soul, the living and the dead, and in her poetic and experimental style she has

become an innovator (革新者).

1. If you are interested in physics, who will you want to know more about?

A. John Hopfield. B. David Baker. C. John Jumper. D. Han Kang.

2. How many 2024 Nobel Prize owners were mentioned in the text?

A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.

3. In which column of the magazine can the text be found?

A. Sports. B. Science. C. Health. D. Shopping.

Bike Batman is a 30-year-old married engineer who lives in Seattle

Washington. He’s a cyclist who also

buys and sells bikes as a hobby.

About three years ago, he was looking for a bike for his wife. He found one on Craigslist, a website where

people list things they want to sell. As he often did, he also looked at Bike Index, a popular website that allows

users to register their bikes and post reports when they’re taken. The bike, which he was considering purchasing,

clearly matched one reported stolen on Bike Index. Then he called the person who claimed to be the bike’s owner

and arranged to meet him — supposedly to complete the sale. When the two men met, Bike Batman told the thief,

“You’ve got two options. You can wait until a police officer gets here, or you can just get out of here.” You can

imagine what the thief did.

After that first success, Bike Batman developed a safer routine. When he sees questionable bike ads on

Craigslist, he cross-references the image with bikes reported on Bike Index. Once he has checked and confirmed it

with the owner, he arranges a meet-up with the thief and will call the Seattle police department so that officers can

participate in the action. In more than half of the 22 cases in which he has got back and returned bikes, the thieves

have been arrested (逮捕). In one case, Bike Batman even helped a family recover a wide range of prized

possessions that suspects had stolen during a home burglary.

His nickname came from a discussion with a police officer who suggested he be called “Robin Hood”. Since

he wasn’t exactly stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, “Batman” seemed a better fit. The idea of a

superhero punishing criminals feels pretty silly to him, but the main reason he continues his work is to keep up

Seattle’s reputation as a friendly city.

4. What will Bike Batman first do when discovering a questionable bike?

A. He’ll contact the real bike owner. B. He’ll arrange to meet the thief.

C. He’ll call the police department. D. He’ll look up the bike’s information.

5. What does the underlined word “cross-reference” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. Compare. B. Upload. C. Provide. D. Beautify.

6. Bike Batman helps find the lost bikes to ______.

A. become famous B. help poor people

punish bike thieves D. build a friendly city

7. What can we learn from the passage?

A. The thieves refused to return the bikes.

B. The police failed to perform their duties.

C. Bike Batman began his good deeds by accident.

D. Bike Batman felt silly to see the thieves arrested.

Talking about glasses, not just any kind but those that are kind to the planet, we mean the green glasses. Have

you heard of glasses that look stylish, feel comfortable, and most importantly, don’t harm the environment? Let’s

get to know more about the sustainable glasses.

You might be surprised to learn how far your glasses are from green. They’re often made from plastic and

metal, which use a lot of energy and resources to produce. The process of making them can be harmful to the

environment. From the harmful chemicals used in the frames ( 镜框 ) to the energy needed to get them to you,

there’s a lot that can be improved.

As for the new type of glasses, we pay special attention to how the glasses are made. Companies that care

about the environment will make sure their glasses last a long time, from when they start making them to when

they’re no longer needed. This means they use materials that come from renewable sources rather than limit

themselves to local materials. For example, they might use wood from forests that are managed well or recycled

materials. They also use energy-saving machines and try to reduce waste. In a word, they make sure that the glasses

are made in a responsible way. To our customers, green glasses are the best option for us to protect our eyes and the

planet at the same time. By choosing these glasses, we’re helping the planet and making a positive change.

The future of glasses is looking bright! The way glasses are made is changing, with green materials and

methods. As more people become interested in green products and technology improves, there will be more green

choices available. Choose green glasses that look great and help the planet. Be part of the change and see the future

in a better way.

8. What does the underlined word “sustainable” in paragraph 1 probably mean?

A. Limited. B. Eco-friendly. C. Expensive. D. Old-fashioned.

9. Which can best describe the new type of glasses?

A. It uses plastic frames. B. It adopts the latest design.

C. Its material is got locally. D. Its entire lifecycle is considered.

10. What is the writer’s attitude towards the future of the glasses?

A. Optimistic. B. Worried. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.

11. What is the purpose of the passage?

A. To inform the history of glasses production.

B. To show the latest fashion trends in glasses.

C. To persuade readers to choose the green glasses.
