I worked at a local station of the Berlin fire department. We got an alert (警报) around 8:25pm that Friday and rushed to the fire engine, where the printout from the dispatcher (调度员) said there was a nine-year-old boy locked in a safe.

I asked myself: if it were a safe, would it be airtight? I was aware that it might already be too late by the time we arrived. I had to plan for a bad outcome. On the other hand, if we were in time, how long would it take us to open the safe? I knew it would be an incredibly difficult task. It's what safes are designed for—not to be opened.

It took less than five minutes to reach the property. When I saw a woman crying on the street,

I knew the situation was serious. She was the boy's mother and she led us into the basement. She told us the boy was alive and we started talking to him; he was very calm. We asked how it had happened: during a game of hide and seek with his five-year-old brother, he had thought the safe would be a good place to hide.

The boy's parents had got the house from his mother's father. The unlocked safe had been there when they moved in and was in an area they didn't use much. The boy's little brother had shut the safe, then, when he couldn't open it again. The only person who knew the combination was the boy's late grandfather.

From the outset, the biggest priority was getting oxygen to the boy. We got oxygen from the hospital. The boy said that he could feel a thin stream of air. I asked his parents if anyone had opened the safe before and they said no. So we had to guess a six-digit code (密码). We started typing them in—but we had to wait 10 minutes between each attempt before we could try again. So quickly we tried them all. No luck.

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

What did you have for dinner Tuesday night of last week? If someone  (ask) you that question Wednesday morning, you would  (possible) have had no problem recalling what you had for dinner the night before.

But as days pass, the memories of all the other meals you  (eat) since then start to interfere (干扰) with your memory of that one particular meal. This is a good example of psychologists call the interference theory of forgetting. Forgetting is the result of  (vary) memories interfering with one another. The more similar two or more events are  one another, the more likely interference will occur.

Getting rid of interference altogether is impossible, but there are a few things you can do to minimize its effects. One of the best things you can do is rehearse (排练) new information in order to better commit it to memory. In fact, many experts recommend overlearning important information,  involves rehearsing the material over and over again until it can be reproduced perfectly with no errors. Another strategy for fighting interference is to switch up your routine and avoid  (study) similar material back to back. Sleep also plays an essential role in memory  (form). Sleeping after you learn something new is  efficient way to turn new memories into lasting ones.

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

I used to stutter (口吃) quite badly. I felt very 1  , like I was less of a human being.

I didn't have any 2 when I left special school. So I got a job as a trainee hotel porter. I enjoyed it because I was meeting new people and earning my own 3 . I felt like a proper adult. But the other men 4 me mentally because of my disability. They'd imitate (模仿) me 5 because of my speech impediment (障碍). I got very down. I was 6 inside.

The stepping stone to self-belief for me was 7 I got help from KeyRing—an organization which helps disabled people to live 8 . I couldn't write very well, but I could 9 that. Apps on computers meant I could dictate (口授) my emails. I got the government 10 for disabled people in work. It paid for me to help with paperwork two mornings a week.

11  I heard about a job going at the human rights charity CHANGE. I got an 12  that got me the job of international project consultant. I travel all over the world to 13  professionals to work better with people with learning disabilities. This builds my 14  . I lost my stutter in the end.

My learning disability was a bit of me, but it doesn't 15 me. It's just a label people put on me. It hasn't stopped me having a life.

The art of learning how to think

Learning how to think is really the whole point of going to university because it is one of the few periods in your life when you get time to do it.

Like any skill, successful thinking takes practice. The more time you spend thinking and the more ideas you come up with, the more likely it is that some of them will be good ones.  Your thinking will never improve if it consists entirely of thinking how much of a failure you are.

 Geniuses generally come up with their brilliant innovations by thinking about a subject in lots of different ways and establishing connections between apparently different ideas. On the other hand, there are times when you need to know what you are supposed to be thinking about and why, and to stay reasonably focused.

If you are having trouble thinking, it may be because you lack another skill that would make it easier. It could be that you don't have a wide enough vocabulary to put your thoughts into words. If you share a house with violinists and pianists, you may have trouble hearing yourself think.

One way to sharpen this skill is to think critically about what other people are thinking. Thinking is not always something that needs to be done alone.  So, if your housemates ever abandon their instruments, engage them in conversation, look for holes in their arguments,and explain your own.

If you get really good at thinking while at university, you may be able to think of a way to carry that on. 

A. Proper thinking is about creating an argument.

B. It enables us to become more independent thinkers.

C. If they're all rubbish, try not to keep thinking about it.

D. And thus it saves you actually doing anything once you leave.

E. You may also be in the wrong environment for productive thought.

F. Having a one-track mind won't improve your power of thinking anyway.

G. In fact, communicating your thoughts can help to develop and clarify them.

In the joyful summer Chadalavada spent with Jayasree, his grandmother in 2018, the pair watched endless movies. Late one evening, Jayasree, who had recently been diagnosed (诊断) with Alzheimer's, got up in her nightdress and went to make tea at her home in India. After she returned to her bedroom, Chadalavada went into the kitchen to find that his grandmother had left the gas on!

Chadalavada decided to invent a wearable device to help people like his grandmother. Now aged 17, Chadalavada is ready to start making the Alpha Monitor. The device, which can be worn as an armband, sets off an alarm when the wearer with Alzheimer's starts to move and warns a caregiver if the patient falls or wanders off.

Most similar devices run on Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, so when a person moves out of their frequencies' limited range the connection is lost and with it the monitoring. But the Alpha Monitor can detect a person more than a mile away in cities and three miles in the countryside thanks to the long-range technology, known as LoRa, it uses.

Teaching himself with YouTube videos about robotics and electronics, Chadalavada has developed several prototypes (模型). To understand the needs of people with Alzheimer's, he spent time in a day centre run by the Alzheimer's and Related Disorders Society of India. There, the cofounder told him that the device "had to be something light that can be worn on any part of the body". She says: "Many patients don't like having to wear a watch and they take it off."

In March, when Chadalavada's school exams are over, he will put the finishing touches to the monitor, with the aim of getting the device ready for market by September. He is confident that it should be sold at an affordable price for most people.

Chadalavada hopes to study robotics at a university abroad. His aim is simple: "I want to create products to help people in India for the whole world."

Is it possible to build muscle and meanwhile lose fat? Please allow us to bring the following two facts to your attention first.

Fact 1: Losing fat requires a caloric deficit, which means consuming less calories than your body needs so that stored body fat is used for energy instead.

Fact 2: Building muscle requires a caloric surplus, which means consuming more calories than your body needs so that new muscle tissue can be created.

And it's this realization that leads those of us who want to build muscle and lose fat ideally at the exact same time to wonder just how we're supposed to make it happen.

There was a story that all the kids told at my school. I don' t know if they believed it but some of them certainly acted as if they did. On the way from my home to school there was a little old cottage. You could only just see the cottage, as if it were trying to hide itself behind the lemonade trees and bushy garden. At times, but not very often, the children had seen a little old woman make her way along the cracked leaf-covered path from the front door to the mailbox. Her fingers were twisted in funny shapes, her body was bent over and her back hunched (弓背). If she lifted her head to look at you, her face was all wrinkly. " The witch (女巫) at Number 97"  was how most kids spoke of her. " Don' t look in her eyes, "  you could hear them say. " She' ll capture you in a magic spell, take you into the house and never release you again. " 

In the mornings and at the end of the day, my friends and I would pass Number 97 in a group. We felt safer and more secure in numbers. But now, I played the recorder so well that I was asked to join the school band, and that meant staying after school one afternoon a week to rehearse (排练). So I had to walk home all by myself. 

I set out as I normally would but as I began to approach the little old cottage it looked scarier than ever. For a while I hesitated, not knowing what to do. I wanted to run but felt I really needed to just walk my way through the experience. I took some deep breaths and tried to think of something different: Home, supper and my bed. While thinking of those things, the dreadful look of the old cottage seemed to fade. When I started thinking about the witch again, the cottage loomed big and frightening in my thoughts. " No, "  I said to myself, " Concentrate on how good it will feel to get home, "  and with that I started to feel easier.

C. V. Raman, one of the greatest Indian  (physicist), was born in 1888. His father was a lecturer in math and physics, so C. V. Raman  (expose) to scientific things from  early age. He attended Presidency College in 1902,  (get) his BA in 1904. And later he got MA in 1907.  he was a brilliant student, there weren' t many chances for scientists in India at that time. Therefore, after finishing his studies, he went  (work) for the Indian Finance Department and carried out his experimental research on acoustics (声学). 

He was  (eventual) offered a professorship in physics at the University of Calcutta in 1917 and stayed for the next 15 years, achieving fame for his research there. In 1930, he  (win) the Nobel Prize for his work on the scattering of light. Raman found when light passes  a transparent (透明的) sample of a substance, most of the light remains unchanged but a small part of it has different wavelengths. This later is known as the Raman effect and is  (use) for physical and chemical analysis of gases, liquids and solids, including biological tissue. 

It was about 5 am on Saturday when Amanda Tanner and her husband were suddenly awakened by their dog, Axel. When the 1  couple was slow to respond, the dog kept trying to get their 2 . Her husband finally went downstairs and opened the door to let the dog outside, but Axel didn' t 3 . Instead, the dog stopped in front of the door of the couple' s 17-year-old son, Gabriel, and wouldn' t 4 : Inside, their son was having a stroke (中风). When Gabriel' s dad 5  the teen, he quickly realized something was wrong. The boy was slurring (说话含糊不清) his speech and couldn' t 6  his right side. The family rushed their son to the emergency room 7 . 

By waking the parents up and leading them to the boy, the dog made a " massive"  8  in Gabriel' s outcome, says Dr. Sabih Effendi, who treated the teen. " It' s very 9  that their dog alerted and started this whole process of getting everyone 10  and going downstairs, "  Effendi says. " When somebody' s acutely having a stroke, the neurons (神经元) are dying. If he was not found and another three or four hours went by, there would have been more and more brain 11 . " 

" I am beyond 12  for whatever sensitivity Axel has to tell us what' s going on and to have moved that so fast, Amanda said. Tanner 13  to make a little medal of honor for him to go on his collar. "  He' s now 14 , with following Gabriel everywhere, "  Amanda says. " He' s now sleeping with Gabriel, and Gabriel' s door is open so he can go in and out. He' s always been very sensitive to everything and everybody' s 15  at home. "
