In artist Roy Wang’s photos,mythical(神话的)creatures from The Classic of Mountains and Seas emerge in front of historical sites of Guangzhou.
The series of photographs is created by light painting in which the photographer uses light sources to produce different images which are captured by a camera, as if drawing on the photos. Roy Wang, the representative figure of light-painting photography in China, says,“What attracts me most about light painting is that,by using a simple light and against a dark background,I can paint in a free style.”
Wang was a professional athlete. However,his sports career ended in 2012 because of in- juries. His travels led to his interest in photography.Once he saw light-painting photos by Spanish master Pablo Picasso online and was introduced to the technique. He began to try in this field.
In 2013,he started adding the dragon and other creatures from ancient texts to light painting. Wang’s work is inspired by mythical creatures that add a sense of mystery to his photography but at the same time it proves to be difficult to create such images with light.“The mythical creatures are as mysterious as light painting.They both emerge in the darkness, and without an exact shape or form,they are free.I let loose my imagination,based on the descriptions in ancient books,” said Wang.
To Roy Wang,the technique has a wide application in expressing different ideas. Apart from mythical creatures, he has been showing themes relevant to more recent events, such as a series in praise of medical workers during the outbreak of COVID-19.
Tradition will continue to be a creative force for Wang as he wants to add more Chinese elements in his works, including his next series, creating photos that have both aesthetic(美学的)and cultural values.
24.What is special about Roy Wang's paintings?
A. They are made with light.
B. They are drawn on the photos.
C. They tell stories about ancient life. D. They mainly show us historical sites.25. What inspired Wang to start his new career?
A. Sudden injuries. B. Travels with a master.
C. His sports career. D. Photos by Pablo Picasso.
26.What problem does Wang have in photographing mythical creatures?
A.It needs a lot of light to draw the creatures.
B. There are few specific images of the creatures.
C. His technique is not suitable for the creatures
D. He has little knowledge of ancient books.
27.What can we infer about Wang's future works?
A. They will mainly praise medical workers.
B. They will express Wang's ideas about art.
C. They will focus on important recent events.
D. They will contain traditional Chinese culture.

The surface of Mars is etched(蚀刻) with ancient river valleys and lake basins,Some re searchers think that liquid water once flowed on the Red Planet Today,Mars is too cold for much, if any,liquid water to exist,And 3.8 billion years ago,when the flowing water formed,the sun was fainter than it is today,making it even harder to imagine a warm Martian climate,That's why many researchers think Mars may have gone in and out of deep freezes,
Some researchers have suggested that early Mars only melt when large asteroid(小行星) impacts or volcanic eruptions temporarily warmed the planet.But Kasting ,a geologist at Pennsylvania State University thinks warm windows from such dramatic events would have been too brief to carve the vast valleys that exist on Mars .Now, Kasting and his colleagues have come up with an alternative explanation:They think Mars may have experienced a series of climate cycles caused by changes in the strength of the greenhouse effect.
The idea goes like this: When Mars was cold and frozen volcanoes continued to erupt the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide and hydrogen into the atmosphere.There, the gas blanket trapped heat and warmed the planet up until liquid water began to flow,forming Mars rivers and lakes. However, warm temperatures and abundant water would also have sped up certain chemical reactions that consumed carbon dioxide,mitigating the greenhouse effect and cooling the planet back down again.Then the cycle would repeat.
Kasting shared his theory with other astronomers at the December meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco, and in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters. So far, Kasting’s team has only shown that such an explanation is possible.But the researchers say field trips could help test the idea by looking for evidence of multiple warm events, and their duration.
28.What made researchers believe that liquid water once existed on Mars?
A. The color of the planet, B. The natural climate of Mars
C.The temperatures of the sun. D. The geological features of Mars
29.What is Kasting's theory based on?
A. Large asteroids had no impact on Mars.
B. Volcanic eruptions were very frequent on Mars
C. Vast valleys couldn't be formed in a short period of time.
D. Carbon dioxide and hydrogen were abundant in the atmosphere
30. What does the underlined word “mitigating” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Imitating. B. Reducing.
C. Predicting.D. Enhancing.
31. Which of the following might confirm Kasting's theory?
A.The future Mars missions. B. The publication of the journal.
C. The design of the climate model. D. The cooperation with astronomers.
D
As the West dries out and heats up.wildfires get bigger and more destructive, officials tasked with preventing and battling the fires could soon have a new thing to add to their set of tools. The high tech help could come from an area not normally associated with fighting wild fires: artificial intelligence(AI).
Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company,based An Jefferson County,has decades of experience of managing satellites, exploring space and providing information for the US military. By generating more timely information about on-the ground conditions and running computer programs to process huge amounts of data,Lockheed Martin representatives say they can map the extent(范围)of a fire in minutes rather than the hours it can take now They say the Al that the company has applied to military use can improve predictions about a fires direction and speed.
“The situation that wildland firefighters work in is a dynamic environment with multiple activities and responsibilities,”said Dan Lordan, senior manager at Lockheed Martin’s Artificial Intelligence Center.Lockheed Martin aims to use its technology to reduce the time it takes to gather information and make decisions about wildfires.The quicker they can react, the faster they can control the fire and protect people's properties and lives.
Lockheed is working with a software company to build a digital model of a wildfire based on an area’s topography(地形)condition of the plants wind and weather to help forecast where and how it will burn.After the 2020 Cameron Peak fire Colorado's largest wildfire the company used the information about the fire, examined the more timely satellite data on fire conditions, and generated a model that was similar to the actual fire's movement.
“Applying Al to fighting wildfires isn’t about taking people out of the field" Lockheed Martin spokesman said.“Somebody will always be there,but people currently in the field are surrounded by so much data that they can’t sort through it fast enough.That's where AI can help."
32.What do we know about Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company?
A.It has good experience in fighting fires.
B. It works on the follow-up to firefighting.
C. It applied AI to its service for the first time
D. It has played positive roles in various fields.
33.What did Dan Lordan think of the work environment of wildfire fighters?
A. Quite controllable. B. Very stable.
C. Constantly changing. D. Perfectly safe.
34. What is AI used for when people fight wildfires?
A. Building models. B. Processing more data.
C. Replacing firefighters. D. Making final decisions.
35.Which is he most suitable title for the text?
A.Al is helping people fight wildfires
B.Al can fight wildfires automatically
C. AI is used to fight Colorado’s wildfires
D. Al replaces firemen in fighting wildfires
