  • 2、In contrast to the brightly coloured species of birds, most of mammals are browns and grays, but with a small number of exceptions, of which the most famous is the giant panda. We've had some initial assumption about why they had their markings, but we need to confirm the reason for its mysterious pattern.

    Viewed up close in a zoo, the giant panda is a strikingly notable mix of a white bear with black shoulders and legs, and an extraordinary face with black fur around the eyes and ears. By comparing with other carnivores (食肉动物), we learned that carnivores with white backs are found in snowy environments, and those with dark legs and shoulders are found in shady habitats. This suggested that the fur was an adaptation to be self-protective in different environments.

    Nowadays, giant pandas are kept inside in forests in western China, where they live on their own and there are relatively few predators (捕食者). We are to confirm that the sort of self-protection is effective against giant pandas' former predators from the days when they ranged right across China into Vietnam.

    By comparing the amount of light reflected from the giant panda's fur with natural objects in the background, it's clear that their black fur patches (斑纹) match dark shades and tree trunks, whereas their white patches match bright leaves and snow. Also, pale brown, or muddy fur matches the color of the ground. This provides a medium color which bridges the gap between the very dark and very light visual elements in the natural habitat. Besides, a second form of self-protection lies in something termed disorderly colors and patterns-in which highly visible patches break up its outline by mixing with patches in the background.

    Giant pandas show this form of defensive outline, especially at longer viewing distances of at least 60 meters away. At these distances, the giant panda becomes hardly identifiable as the black fur patches go with the background, dark rocks and tree trunks.

    Although giant pandas in zoos are highly notable to us, it is because we see them up close and surrounded by artificial backgrounds. But when in the wild and at a distance, our research shows that they are beautifully protective to avoid detection.

    (1)、How are giant pandas different from most mammals?
    A、They have exceptional colors and patterns B、They are more brightly colored. C、They are marked with browns and grays. D、Their dark legs match snowy environments.
    (2)、What is the purpose of paragraph 4?
    A、To explain the reason for pandas living in the wild. B、To compare the differences of pandas' body parts in color. C、To confirm pandas' color connection to the habitat. D、To conclude the relationship between light and pandas' colors.
    (3)、What can we infer about giant pandas from the last two paragraphs?
    A、They look darker in the artificial background. B、Their patterns are determined by their backgrounds. C、The effectiveness of defensive colors is related to distance. D、They are more beautifully-colored in the wild than in the zoo.
    (4)、What is the author's attitude towards the research on giant pandas' fur patterns?
    A、Favourable. B、Objective. C、Confused. D、Skeptical.
  • 3、Body Language: The Unspoken Dialogue is a fascinating book, exploring the silent language we all speak — the gestures, postures and expressions represented in over two hundred artworks from galleries worldwide. This work is designed to make human behavior comprehensible to everyday readers through artistic depictions of body language across cultures. In these artistic representations of non-verbal communication, we recognize universal human experiences that cross cultural and historical boundaries.

    In this "visual guide to body language", artworks are carefully selected and arranged to highlight connections across different periods and societies. We observe scenes of people interacting in various social situations — from formal handshakes in business settings to intimate embraces between loved ones. Individuals are portrayed in numerous positions — leaning forward in interest, crossing arms in defense, or nodding in agreement. Though these artworks might have been created centuries apart, they capture moments of human interaction that remain familiar to us all.

    Body language in artworks often serves to reveal the inner world of the subjects — their confidence, anxiety, or social status. Before the scientific study of non-verbal communication, artists intuitively (凭直觉地) understood and captured these subtle signals in their works. In contemporary art, as our understanding of body language has deepened, artists have become more intentional in using gestures and postures as primary elements in their creations — making body language itself the subject matter of their works.

    Some might assume that in our digital age of video calls and virtual meetings, the study of physical body language has become less relevant. From a modern perspective, while technology has changed how we communicate, non-verbal communication remains as significant as any emoji or digital reaction. To fully understand human interaction, we must observe the physical dimension: the eye contact, the posture, and the gestures employed during conversation. And compared to our increasingly digital communications where expressions can be hidden, in-person interaction still provides the richest, most immediate understanding of unspoken feelings.

    (4)、Which can be a suitable title for the text?
    A、The History of Digital Communication. B、Famous Artists and Their Masterpieces. C、How to Improve Your Body Language. D、Understanding People Through Art.
  • 4、In 2025, 71-year-old Hungarian (匈牙利) writer Laszlo Krasznahorkai won the Nobel Prize in Literature. He got this great honor for his "powerful and creative works that show the strength of art even in hard times full of disaster and fear." His life has been an amazing journey closely tied to literature and a love for different cultures.

    Krasznahorkai was born in 1954 in Gyula, Hungary. His early life was full of different experiences — he played jazz piano as a teenager and later studied law at college. But literature soon became his real passion. When he was 13, he read the famous book Moby-Dick. He felt a strong connection with Captain Ahab, the main character. This moment played a big part in shaping his imagination for writing.

    A special trip in 1991 changed his focus to Chinese culture. At that time, he worked as a journalist and visited China. He was deeply surprised by how rich and colorful Chinese culture was, calling it "the world's last living museum of human culture." This trip started a long-lasting fascination; he began using chopsticks at home, listened to Peking Opera often, and became very interested in Li Bai, his favorite Chinese poet. In 1998, he made his dream come true — he traveled across China to follow the places Li Bai once visited.

    Though his works, such as Satantango, are known for their complex and long sentences, they have won praise from readers around the world. Susan Sontag, a famous writer, once compared him to Gogol, another great writer, and said he was a "master of modern Hungarian writing about serious and dark times".
