Gorman is the youngest poet in U. S. history. She became the youth poet laureate （获奖者）of Los Angeles at age 16 in 2014 and the first national youth poet laureate three years later. She has recently completed her studies at Harvard University.
Her mother, Joan Wicks, teaches middle school in Watts. Shuttling among the neighborhoods gave Gorman a window to the world. Her like for poetry elates at least back to the third grade when her teacher read Ray Bradbury's Dandelion Wine to the class.
Gorman is a lot better at it now, but still working on her confidence as a public speaker. " Until two or maybe three years ago, I couldn't say the letter "r" . Even to this day sometimes I struggle with it. I'd want to say 'girls can change the world' , but I cannot say so many letters in that statement, so I'd say things like 'young women can shape the globe'."
For Gorman, writing became a cure. "I used writing as a form of self-expression to get my word on the page. So the more I recited out loud, the more I was able to teach myself how to pronounce these letters which for so long had been my greatest impediment. " Gorman said she also used a song from Miranda's Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway musical Hamilton to help with her speaking. "But I don't look at my disability as a weakness," said Gorman. "It's made me the performer that I am and the storyteller that I strive to be. ”
In September, Goman will release Change Sings, the first of two children's books. The poet says she desires to publish a book “in which kids could see themselves as change-makers in history, rather than just observers".
24. What happened to Gorman in 2017?
A. Winning the U. S. first youth poet laureate.
B. Graduating from Harvard University.
C. Becoming the youth poet laureate.
D. Turning into a public speaker.
25. What raised Gorman's interest in poetry?
A. Her mother's encouragement.
B. Ray Bradbury's works.
C. Her teacher's effort.
D. Miranda's inspiration.
26. What does the underlined word "impediment" mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Barrier. B. Regret. C. Motivation. D. Achievement.
27. Which of the following best describes Gorman?
A. Modest and fortunate. B. Wise and hardworking.
C. Determined and optimistic. D. Thoughtful and ambitious.
C
It is the stock response to a parent struggling with a crying baby or a bad-tempered teenager； "Treasure every moment because they grow up so fast. Now researchers have found there may be something in the old saying. Watching children grow up really does seem to make time fly. Scientists have found that parents feel time passing more quickly than non — parents.
The findings could be due to the fact that children change fast. "Over ten years, children go through dramatic changes not only in their physical appearance, but also in their understanding abilities and their status," the researchers said. The results could also be a consequence of parents
spending a large amount of their time on their children, they said, even though they found no difference in the time pressures recorded by parents compared with non — parents in the study.
For the study, published in the journal Timing & Time Perception （感知），the researchers asked 431 people aged from 20 to 59 to fill in a subjective time questionnaire, a tool used by psychologists to measure time perception. They were asked： ”How fast did the last ten years pass for you?” An answer of very slowly gave a score of - 2 ； slowly was - 1 ； neither fast nor slow was 0 ； fast was 1 and very fast scored 2. So the higher the score, the faster they felt time had passed. The parents had an average score of 1. 22, compared with 0. 76 for the non — parents.
Participants were also asked how quickly the last year, month and week had passed, but there were no differences between the groups for these shorter intervals （间隔）.Previous studies have suggested that time also seems to speed up when we get older. Research published in 2019 by Duke University in North Carolina suggests this could be due to physical changes in our bodies, with a slowdown in image processing speeding up our perception of time passing.
Days that seemed to last forever in our youth were "not due to experiences being much deeper or meaningful" , the researcher Adrian Bejan said, "but due to the fact that they were being processed rapidly.”
28. What probably makes parents feel time passing more quickly than non — parents?
A. The pressure of raising children. B. Devoting much time to children.
C. The slowdown in image processing. D. Noticing children's daily physical growth.
29. What can be inferred from the text?
A. Time seems to speed up for the young.
B. Parents responded differently to the old saying.
C. Non — parents have deeper experiences.
D. The older people are, the higher scores they may get.
30. What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Experiences. B. Researchers. C. Days. D. Youths.
31. What's the best title for the text?
A. The perception of time passing.
B. Teenagers experience dramatic changes.
C. Time really flies when you are having children.
D. Comparison between parents and non — parents.

China's Tianwen 1 Mars probe （探测器）conducted its fourth orbital （correction on Friday evening, as the spacecraft makes ready for its arrival in orbit around Feb. 10, according to the China National Space Administration.

China would also be the first to successfully orbit, land and deploy （部署）a vehicle in the same mission. According to experts, searching for signs of life on Mars will be the first and foremost scientific goal.

What is niksen? In Dutch, “niksen” literally means "to do nothing". Niksen used to have negative associations of laziness. 36 The world today is more connected and faster. Niksen is allowing ourselves to take time out and consciously switch off, without feeling guilty.
37
It enables you to prioritise （优先）yourself and what you need. Often we think we're busy, but who can't take a half-hour break? Niksen brings the same benefits as mindfulness in terms of mental health, sleep, creativity and enhanced focus. It helps the body and brain recover.
Describe some easy ways people can embrace doing nothing?
It might feel awkward at first. Do a relaxation exercise and let your mind wander. There's a Dutch verb, uitwaaien, to “go out in the wind”. 38 Go out and watch clouds-lie on your back and make up stories. People-watch. Indoors, choose a nice space and make it your own—— make it comfortable, add some flowers, sit by the window and watch the day go by. 39
How can people ensure that niksen becomes a regular and fulfilling part of their life?
It should be a mindset. Schedule time and give yourself permission to do nothing. Start small- five minutes, ten, half an hour a day, up to a few hours at the weekend. Repeat to yourself, "It's a good thing to do nothing," and practise saying, "no, another time," when you're busy and somebody asks for your help. 40
A. It refreshes the mind.
B. How can niksen help people?
C. How did you become an expert in it?
D. Do one thing a day for the purpose of it.
E. I write about mindfulness and psyc
