Museums struggle with dropping income, so it's time to invent new ways of doing things. This
article aims to offer some inspiration to drive sales and recover financially.
Pop-up Store
While in London, the British museum is closed until August 27,2020, in China it is open for
business. Since July 2020, the museum has drawn curious visitors to its pop-up store Shanghai
Shimao Festival City. Visitors could take a selfie (自拍) in the photo walls and pick their favorite
souvenir from over two hundred kinds of Egyptian creative products.
Home of Vegetables
The Vegetable Museum in China's Shouguang City, known as "Home of Vegetables", combined
live-streaming with e-commerce smartly. As people wished to grow kitchen gardens and eat fresh
during lockdown, the museum seized the chance to share knowledge of growing vegetables over
7,000 years and cooperate with local farmers to sell fresh produce. Over six million yuan of
vegetables were sold in two weeks, enabling both the museum and farmers to survive a challenging
time.
Historical Figures with a Twist
The Suzhou Museum designed tea bags inspired by the Four Scholars of Jiangnan. However,
the package showed these young scholars singing karaoke and pumping iron just like today's
youngsters. Over 4.6 million yuan of tea bags were sold in two months.
The Palace Museum in Beijing has transformed Yongzheng, an emperor from the Qing Dynasty,
into a trendsetter who wears sunglasses and skateboards. Young Chinese find his way of expression
very authentic and amusing. Thus products with his quotes were very popular gifts.
21. Where can visitors buy some Egyptian souvenirs?
A. The Palace Museum. B. The Suzhou Museum.
C. Shanghai Shimao Festival City. D. The Vegetable Museum in Shouguang City.
22. What contributed to the sales of vegetables?
A. New ways of growing vegetables.
B. The modern marketing strategy.
C. The popularity of kitchen gardens.
D. The long history of vegetable planting.
23. How did the Suzhou Museum and the Palace Museum recover financially?

Man goes viral with 1.7 million views after filming himself playing piano duets (二重奏) with a
mystery neighbor on the other side of the wall.
Giorgio Lo Porto is an Italian living in the UK and making TikTok videos. On January 31st,
Giorgio posted a video of him listening to his neighbor playing the piano and it seemed that he was
really enjoying the concert. Then, on February 6th, he posted a follow-up video saying that he had
left a note to his neighbor letting him know that he loved his playing and asking if he could play
"My Heart Will Co On". The neighbor's answer was clear as we can hear them playing in the
background.
On Valentine's Day, he wrote another note to the neighbor suggesting that they could play a
duet: "……and I said as soon as I stop，you start." The TikToker was very excited and nervous, not
knowing if the neighbor would answer him, but he recorded himself starting to play the piece "River
Flows In You". The neighbor answered the call and continued to play the melody. When Giorgio
heard the notes coming from the other side of the wall, you can really see in his face how moved he
was and the caption of the video says: "It was really fun."
The fun didn't end there. The two pianists agreed to "meet" on the weekend. Giorgio wrote:
"This was our way of saying 'I don't know who you are, but I'm here. You're not alone.'"
The identity of the neighbor at that point was still a mystery. But the time to meet finally came.
Turns out, his name was Emil and he was 78-year-old who lost his wife due to Covid-19. The only
consolation left to Emil was his piano. He was trying to heal his heart by playing music his wife
loved.
This whole situation of communicating with a stranger through music and later getting to know
the pianist's heartbreaking story inspired Giorgio to write his own music piece. He explains in a
video that it is "about fighting loneliness, about kindness…" This is the first piece that Giorgio. ever
composed, and he named it Dear Emil.
24. Why did Giorgio leave a note to Emil?
A. He felt a little homesick for Italy. B. He decided to free Emil from sufferings.
C. He was deeply impressed by his melody. D. He wanted to make comments on his music.
25. How was the process of Giorgio and Emil's interaction?
A. It was tiresome to Emil. B. It was slow but heartwarming.
C. It was vital for Giorgio's career. D. It was amazing but heartbreaking.
26. What does the underlined word "consolation" in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Stuff. B. Pension. C. Entertainment. D. Comfort.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Magic of Music B. The Origin of Dear Emil
C. An Unforgettable Me D. Two Pianos between a Wall

Stingrays are an instantly recognizable fish, with their pancake-like bodies that swim gracefully
through the water. Their flat bodies allow them to sit on the bottom of the ocean, river or lake,
disguising themselves to predators (食肉动物) swimming above as they hunt their prey (猎物) on
the floor. Their eyes sit on the top of their body，while their mouths are on the bottom. They each
have a long tail with a toxin-filled barb (充满毒素的倒钩). When they feel threatened，they can Jift
their barbed tails upward and injure potential predators. Most species of stingrays sport dull colors
that help with disguise, though some do have more lively colors. Stingrays eat prey like worms while
freshwater stingrays eat insects as well.
As those creatures move through the water，they generate bioelectric fields. Stingrays are able
to detect these bioelectric fields of the animals around them using a network of special sensory
organs called ampullae of Lorenzini. These organs are small, fluid-filled electrical receptors that are
located near the stingray's mouth and look like tiny black holes in the animal's skin. Once they've
located and captured their prey with the help of these sensory organs, stingrays use their hard teeth to
break the shells of their victims, and can even chew their meal.
In 2006, Australian television personality Steve Irwin died when a stingray's barbed tail pierced
his heart. Irwin was being filmed for a show called "Ocean's Deadliest" when he swam too close to a
stingray. However, death from stingrays is rare. A stingray's poison is generally only deadly when its
barb pierces people's neck or chest. Otherwise, contact with a stingray's. barb anywhere else on the
body causes pain similar to a jellyfish (水母) sting.
Scientists also believe that stingrays have the ability to detect the Earth's magnetic fields and
the orientation of electric currents generated by objects in the water. They could then use that
information to navigate in the open ocean. However, this ability could potentially cause problems for
the animals as offshore energy technologies like wind and wave energy become more popular, thus
disturbing stingrays' ability to accurately detect their surroundings. This could influence stingrays'
feeding and migration patterns.
28. What can we know about stingrays?
A. They hardly feed on insects.
B. They have a big ball-like fat bod.
C. Their barbed tails serve as a defence.
D. Their body colors vary with the environment.
29. What is the ampullae of Lorenzini used for?
A. Hunting prey. B. Frightening prey.
C. Protecting sensory organs. D. Producing a bioelectric field.
30. Why is Irwin's death mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A. To explain jellyfish stings cause death.
B. To show it was an occasional accident.
C. To prove photographing undersea is risky.
D. To stress stingrays are ocean's deadliest.
31. What does the last paragraph mainly focus on?
A. Stingrays' ability to detect magnetic fields.
B. The popularity of wind and wave energy.
C. Stingrays' feeding and migration patterns.
D. The technological impact. on stingrays' life.
D
Boston wants to be smarter. The city has taken advantage of tiny sensors, big data and other
technologies to become more responsive to its residents' needs. But technology alone is not
sufficient to make today's cities livable. Boston has discovered that it also needs to reach the
old-fashioned low-tech community and integrate that technology with city life.
Kris Carter, co-chair of the Mayor's Office of New Urban Mechanics, rolled out Boston's smart
city program in 2014.It started with an app that residents could download to report locations where
sidewalks needed repair. The city checked those reports and ranked them in a database, which repair
workers used to prioritize (确定优先顺序) their work.
The system worked beautifully，except for one problem: most of the alerts came from wealthier
neighborhoods, where the concentration of smartphone-equipped residents was highest. "The
complaints that had been coming in from the app didn't always reveal the greatest community need
for repairs," explains Carter.
Boston's high-tech initiatives shouldn't disproportionately (不成比例地) benefit the already
well-resourced. Under Carter, technology is getting into the city's functioning and daily life, but with
a special eye to serving those populations and neighborhoods that need the most support. "What we
want to know is how to target problems in a smart way that addresses both needs and equity (公正)
goals," he says.
Carter's group has moved away from the model common to many smart city initiatives of
letting tech-savvy (精通科技产品的) residents and high-tech companies drive the process. Instead，
they run meetings in local libraries and other public spaces to find out what problems people in
different neighborhoods care about solving. When it came to sidewalks, Boston introduced a second
method of collecting repair tips. In addition to its smartphone app, it hired people to get out and walk
the city's 1,700 miles of sidewalks to take notes on their condition.
Whether using low-tech or high-tech approaches, says Carter, to stay smart, a city needs to
continually reassess its options to spot opportunities to improve residents' lives.
32. What is Boston like now?
A. It's well-equipped. B. It's old-fashioned.
C. It's highly livable. D. It's badly maintained.
33. What's the problem with Boston's app?
A. It gets many inaccurate reports.
B. It fails to serve the whole society.
C. It always makes repair workers copfused.
D. It is ranked very low among various apps.
34. What did Carter's group do to better the smart city program?
A. They rolled out a second app.
B. They reduced the running costs.
C. They asked the neighborhood for help.
D. They employed people to collect repair tips.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. A commonly-adopted model was launched.
B. A smart city involves more than technology.
C. The app-backed system makes the city smarter.
D. The disadvantaged voiced complaints about high-tech.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
There is one question that most parents seem to fear more than any other when it comes to
talking to their kids about money. 36 If you said "How much money do you make?", you are
exactly right, according to Jayne Pearl, author of several books about what she calls financial
parenting.
There are two main reasons why most parents don't talk to their kids about money and help
them develop critical financial skills, said Pearl. 37 Second, many parents feel like they don't
know a lot about money and then don't have the confidence that they can teach their kids about it.
38 For some answers, we asked some kids how they would handle things if they were in
charge. Grace Szostak, who just started middle school this year, said she would get one of those toy
cash registers and have her kids do a little role play with it, selling stuff to each other to understand
the concept of. money and learn how to count it.
Pearl said parents shouldn't hesitate to talk to their kids about the-mistakes they've made,
including the risks of credit card debt. 39 . Its goal, she believes, is to start teaching kids about
financial responsibility, but it's better not to connect the weekly money to grades and behavior.
If you get past your insecurities about money and eventually talk to your kids, they'll definitely
benefit. Kids are ultimately going to need to know how to handle their own money. 40
A. Can you guess what that might be?
B. Why don't parents talk to their kids about money?
C. She's also a big believer in giving kids an allowance.
D. For one, they're terrified they're not good role models.
E. So the earlier you teach them to handle money, the better.
F. So how can you actually start talking to your kids about money?
G. They think teaching kids about money requires a Ph.D. in finance.
