Most people， when they retire， get a gold watch. James Harrison deserves so much more than that. Harrison， known as the“Man With the Golden Arm，”has donated blood nearly every week for 60 years. After all those donations， the 81-year-old Australian man“retired”Friday.

According to the Australian Red Cross Blood Service， he has helped saved the lives of more than 2.4 million Australian babies. Harrisons blood has unique， disease-fighting antibodies that have been used to develop an injection called Anti-D， which helps fight against rhesus disease. This disease is a condition where a pregnant womans blood actually starts attacking her unborn babys blood cells. In the worst cases， it can result in brain damage， or death， for the babies.

Harrisons remarkable gift of giving started when he had major chest surgery at the age of 14， whose life was saved thanks to transfusions of donated blood plasma. He made a commitment to pay it back. However， because of Australias regulations， he had to wait until he was 18. Every three weeks， since 1954， James has given blood plasma.

It was a few years later that doctors discovered his blood contained the antibody.“In Australia， up until about 1967， there were literally thousands of women having numerous miscarriages and babies born with brain damage. Doctors dont know why.”Jemma Falkenmire says， a medical worker of the Australian Red Cross Blood Service，“Now every batch of the life-saving medication given to moms at risk has come from Jamesblood. And more than 17% of women in Australia are at risk， so James has helped save a lot of lives.”After all， no more than 43 people around the world in the last 50 years have had the antibodies， however， only 9 donate.

Now that Harrison has given his last blood donation（in Australia you cant donate blood past the age of 81）， Falkenmire and others hope people with similar antibodies in their blood will step up and donate.“All we can do is hope there will be people out there generous enough to do it， and selflessly in the way hes done，”she said.

24. Why is James Harrison called“the man with the golden arm”？

A. He won a gold watch after retirement.

B. He is Australias national hero.

C. He has made a lot of money due to his antibodies in blood.

D. His generous and constant blood donation has saved millions of babieslives.

25. When was James Harrison born？

A. In 1954.B. In 1967.

C. In 1936.D. In 1930.

26. What might Jemma Falkenmire agree with？

A. Jamesblood donation should have been valued earlier to help babies with brain damage.

B. Those with antibodies are supposed to learn from James.

C. Before 1967， doctors in Australia were only bothered by finding treatment to help babies born with brain damage.

D. Jamesblood is vitally important to preventing mothersmiscarriages who are at risk.

27. Which of the following can best describe James Harrison？

B. Kind and persistent.

A team of Griffith University archaeologists has shared in the discovery of what may be the worlds oldest known cave painting， dating back to at least 45，500 years ago. Professor Adam Brumm， an archaeologist on a team behind the groundbreaking discovery revealed today， says what they believe is the worlds oldest known cave painting was“sitting right in front of our noses”.

The Griffith University archaeologists uncovered a cave painting of a wild pig dating back to 45，500 years ago during field research in South Sulawesi in 2017. Its taken the team years of methodical work to publish their paper， out today in Science Advances. The cave painting consists of a figurative depiction of a Sulawesi warty pig， a wild boar that is local to this Indonesian island.

Professor Brumm said the secret location was uncovered in a“pristine， hidden valley”that， according to the locals， no westerners had been to before. They uncovered the location after working in a nearby valley and hearing about the limestone cave of Leang Tedongnge from locals.

“Painted using red ochre pigment， the pig appears to be observing a fight or social interaction between two other warty pigs，”he said. While the fourth image had deteriorated too much to depict， it was likely a pig.“These pigs were the most commonly portrayed animal in the ice age rock art of the island， suggesting they have long been valued both as food and a focus of creative thinking and artistic expression.”

The latest work represents some of the earliest—if not the earliest—archaeological evidence for modern humans in the vast zone of oceanic islands located between Asia and Australia-New Guinea known as“Wallacea”.“Our species must have crossed through Wallacea by watercraft in order to reach Australia by at least 65，000 years ago，”said dating specialist and team co-leader Professor Maxime Aubert.“However， the Wallacean islands are poorly explored and presently the earliest excavated archaeological evidence from this region is much younger in age.”

The team expects that future research in eastern Indonesia will lead to the discovery of much older rock art and other archaeological evidence， dating back at least 65，000 years or possibly earlier.

28. Which of the words has the closest meaning to“groundbreaking”？

A. Concrete.B. Revolutionary.

C. Site-based.D. Invaluable.

29. About the research， what can you infer from the passage？

A. The researchers published their findings immediately.

B. The cave uncovered was never reached by any human beings.

C. The cave painting vividly depicted the fight of three warty pigs.

D. The findings serve as supplementary evidences for humansexistence in the Wallacean islands.

30. What does the pigs portrayed commonly in the rock art reveal？

A. Indonesiansunderstanding of the rock art.

B. The earliest archaeological evidence of humans.

C. Pigsstatus as a source of food and inspiration of art for the early humans.

D. The history of early setters feeding animals asfood.

31. What is the best title of the passage？

A. Hidden“cave popcorn”： worlds oldest cave art

B. Whats new： the mystery life of Sulawesi warty pig

C. Proud of themselves： Indonesianssplendid rock art

D. Years of hard work： a groundbreaking discovery in archeology

In November， the International Council of Museums estimated that 6.1 percent of museums globally were resigned to permanent closure due to the pandemic. The figure was welcomed with enthusiasm： in May， it had reported nearly 13 percent faced demise.

Something is changing for the better. This isnt a story about how galleries and museums have used technology to save themselves during lockdowns（many didnt try； many couldnt afford to try； many tried and failed）. But it is a story of how they weathered lockdowns and ongoing restrictions by using tech to future-proof themselves.

One key tool turned out to be virtual tours. Before 2020， they were less known to the public； quickly， they became one of the few ways for galleries and museums to engage with the public. The V&A in London， which chose Lewis Carrolls Alice books for its 2020 summer show， created a VR game based in Wonderland， enabling people to follow their own White Rabbit， solve the caterpillars mind-bending riddles， visit the Queen of Heartscroquet garden and more.

The advantages are obvious. The crowded conditions in galleries and museums have been miserable for years—witness the Mona Lisa， imprisoned behind bulletproof glass under low-level diffuse lighting and protected by barricades（路障）. Art isnt“available”in any real sense when you can only spend 10 seconds with a piece.

Why do we go to museums and galleries expecting to see originals？ The Victorians didnt. They knew the value of copies and reproductions. In the US in particular， museums lacked“real”antiquities， and plaster casts were highly valued. The casts are not so hard to pick out compared to the original， but what if we produced copies that were exact in information as well as appearance？ As British art critic Jonathan Jones says：“This is not a new age of fakery（贗品）. Its a new era of knowledge.”

With lidar（雷达）， photogrammetry and new printing techniques， great statues and paintings can be recreated anywhere. This promises to spread the crowds and give local museums and galleries a new lease of life. At last， they can become places where we think about art—not merely look at it.

32. The statistics from the International Council of Museums shows that the number of museums at the risk of closure in lockdowns is.

A. deterioratingB. decreasing

C. on the riseD. not affected

33. In the authors opinion， the new technology can play the most important role in helping museums to.

A. save themselves during the lockdowns

B. attract more visitors for commercial purposes

C. get better prepared for current restrictions and future challenges

D. help visitors to gain a deep understanding of artwork

34. What cant we infer about the virtual tours according to the passage？

A. The V&A in London created a VR game based in Wonderland for commercial purposes.

B. The virtual tours can help museums appeal to the public in lockdowns.

C. Despite little information about it before 2020， it has developed at a high speed.

D. The virtual tours can deepen visitorsunderstanding of the artwork.

35. Why does author use the example of

？

A.Topersuademuseumstohavemorevirtualtours.

B. To show how to appreciate an artwork.

C.To prove virtual museumspositive impact on the artwork and visitors.

D. To advertise the power of original artworks.

This time last year， you still regularly got people insisting that social media was the“big bad”of modern society.36Social media turned out to modern societys saviors in many ways.

Human beings are， above all， an incredibly social species and when were cut off from our fellows it can be incredibly stressful.37

Thankfully，38After going from condemning it to depending on it in a short space of time， maybe many people will see that social media isnt strictly a good or bad thing， but that its a thing that can be used for bad or good. For those students obsessed with Facebook and Twitter， they can also use them as a source of learning materials in lockdowns. Grandparents living far away from families can also browse updates of their grandchildren to feel relieved.

Additionally， social media is also a great resource for finding help with your mental health issues.39 And this can make all the difference.

More broadly， the boom in development and use of communication technology could well lead to greater access to mental healthcare.40Remote therapies via Skype or Zoom have been a key area of research for many years， as one major hurdle with mental health problems is to get the sufferer to the clinic. The pandemic will likely make it easier for the therapist to“go to them”， in the virtual sense. Again， this could make all the difference in many cases.

A. social media contribute positively to our mental well-being.

B. And thats exactly what lockdown does to us.

C. Thats why online medical consultation is becoming more and more popular.

D. social media has allowed us to keep in touch with others.

E. It is also convenient for you to reach out and find folk with similar experiences and sympathetic ears.

F. Now though， the picture is somewhat different.

G. More and more patients are forced to stay at home due to the pandemics.

Going out to eat with young children isnt always the easiest thing to do.

Thankfully， many eateries have a nifty little trick to for those kids： crayons. What you may not know， however， is that every one of those crayons wont see the44 of the day again， usually. Thats right. More than a half-million pounds of crayons are45every year， turning into a waxy sludge that never biodegrades due to the fact that any guests wont be pleased to receive some spaghetti or honey mustard crusted used crayons from 46eaters. This was47father and entrepreneur Bryan Ware， after learning about where those crayons 48， decided to launch The Crayon Initiative. As a non-profit organization49 to preserving the environment and enriching the lives of50children， the Crayon Initiative collects donated crayons， then melts them down and remanufactures them， reducing waste. 51 yet， the recycled crayons are distributed to art programs at childrens hospitals across the U.S，52 the lives of young patients during their stay. Now many schools have built53with the Crayon Initiative. There are tons of schools that encourage their students to54 their broken or55 crayons to donate to the organization.

Some student groups get a bit more58 than others：59they actually participate in the crayon recycling process and help to boil the recyclable crayons together， mold them， and repackage them for kids all across the country. They believe the work they have done can help reduce waste， thus making a/an60to those in need.

61（consider）as a soft， romantic color， pink has much to do with feminine62（associate）， but， when you dig a little deeper， pink has many other meanings.

In the 1800s boys were dressed63pink. It was seen as masculine because military uniforms were red and boys， being little men， wore pink while girls were dressed in the weaker color of blue. As the world64（emerge）from the shadow of the First World War， pink became the color of choice for baby girls. In 1937， designer Elsa Schiaparelli chose a shade of hot pink called“shocking pink”as her trademark. This vibrant shade turned the fashion world upside down， making it easy for Elsa65（found）her fashion empire， with everything66（range）from perfume to lipstick following her color trend.
