3、the cast causes maximum emotional impact. (Coming to theaters.)Summer of Soul (Questlove)This documentary about a series of open-air concerts in Harlem in 1969, connecting impressive performances with interviews with musicians and audience members, is a shot of pure joy. But the film is more than a
4、time capsule: Its a history lesson and an argument for why art matters, and what it can do, especially in time of anxiety. (Streaming on Hulu.)Bring Your Own Brigade (Lucy Walker)This documentary about California wildfires of September 2021 is also, almost by accident, an exploration of the countrys
5、 response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The picture Walker paints is complicated, partly because thats the way people are: panicked, generous, stupid and brave. The movie is hardly optimistic, but its open-mindedness provides a buffer against despair. (In theaters.)The Velvet Underground (Todd Haynes)Li
6、ke “Summer of Soul”, this documentary revisits the music of the 1960s in a spirit that is more historical than just recalling the past. Rather than gathering present-day musicians to celebrate their ancestors, Haynes concentrates on the Velvet, a band, and on the artistic scene that inspired them. I

9、y made of steel or aluminum (铝) but now there is a unique company that is growing bikes on trees, literally. These bicycles are made of British grown ash trees by Welsh maker Andy Dix. His Hay-on-Wye company, Twmpa Frames, is making bikes that are of high performance and environmentally sustainable.
10、“Its great to push for more bikes and fewer cars on the road, but theres no escaping the fact that the bike industry as a whole is pretty energy intensive,” Dix told Cycling Industry, “Ive always tried to minimize environmental impact in my work. Rather than relying on heavily-processed metals, or l
11、ayers of plastic that will one day end up in landfill, Im building bikes from captured carbon, in a process powered by sunlight.”It took two years to build the prototype (雏形) that was made from ash wood. Dix tested the wooden bike on the roughest roads he could find and discovered that it was comfor
12、table, durable, and excellent at absorbing shakes. He put more than 3,000 miles on the bike. Dix explained, “I was running along battered roads that would have shaken me to bits on a aluminum bike. The penny dropped. Not only could I make a bike out of wood, but it had inherent advantages over other
13、 materials.”Though cutting down trees can add to more carbon in the atmosphere, sustainable tree farming is possible. Dix said that manufacturing a British tonne of aluminum results in carbon emissions of 4,532 kg while producing a tonne of wood only emits 457 kg. Currently, the cost of a new Twmpa
14、Cycle is out-of-reach for many bicycle riders; but the idea of using sustainable materials like ash trees could start a new cycling revolution that puts the environment first.

17、novation, No DevelopmentDAmusing? Bike Riding Is Taking offThe complexities of human relations are difficult enough for adults to identifyand they have at least some idea of the rules. Children have yet to learn those rules. Infants (婴儿) are, nevertheless, able quickly to identify close relationship
18、s between other people, and thus to build up a map of the social world around them.How this comes out has puzzled sociologists for decades. In a paper just published in Science, Ashley Thomas of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology proposes a partial answer: saliva (唾液) shared by kissing, for e
19、xample, or the common use of an eating or drinking tool.The researchers came to the conclusion based on a series of studies. They selected two groups of several dozen youngsters. One was a set of babies aged between eight and ten months. The other was a group of toddlers aged between 16 and 18 month
20、s.Each infant was shown a video of an adult interacting with a puppet (木偶), followed by another video of that puppet in trouble while the same adult, and also a stranger, looked on. When the interaction in the first video appeared to involve the sharing of salivapuppet and adult taking constant bite
21、s from an orange in turnboth sets of infants looked mainly at that same adult in the second video, and not the stranger. When the interaction in the first video was friendly but less thick, such as passing a ball back and forth, the infants had equal expectations of both adults when shown the second
22、 video.The conclusion was reconfirmed by subsequently replacing the puppet with a different one and repeating the second test. In this case the children showed no consistent expectation about which adult would intervene to relieve the puppets trouble.Conducting her experiment by video enabled Dr. Th
23、omas to cast her search for trial participants beyond Massachusetts. She nevertheless decided, in this first instance, to limit things to the United States. Future runs, she hopes, will reach beyond that countrys borders.8What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 2 refer to?AAdults identifyi

26、erage.DDiverse experimental methods.One of the most powerful social desires expressed by teenagers is to be thought of as cool and popular by their peers(同龄人), which is quite natural.Often, the terms “cool” and “popular” get used interchangeably as if they were just different labels for the same per
27、ception. On closer examination, however, it becomes clear that they are quite different and have a fairly complicated relationship with each other.Lets start by examining what popularity is all about. At first glance, popularity is easy to define and recognize: A popular person is an individual who
28、is well-known, well-liked, and admired by others. However, the sources of the social power possessed by popular people can be quite different. Specifically, sociometric popularity (SP) primarily reflects “like ability” and it is linked with qualities such as being kind and trustworthy. However, peer
29、-perceived popularity (PP) is based upon a judgment of how popular others think that person is among his or her peers. It reflects what we might call “status” and is often related with less desirable qualities such as being dominant, aggressive, or “stuck-up”.So, popularity is a more complicated con
30、cept than it may seem. As complicated as popularity is, coolness is even more so.Coolness is a broader category than popularity. One can be cool by having cool stuff, by doing cool stuff, or by just plain “being cool”. It is a combination of self presentation, fashion, and attitude. Its push back ag
31、ainst norms and authority that may label itself as not caring about traditional routes to success such as academic achievement and being “too cool for school”.Hence, coolness and popularity represent two completely independent terms. The pursuit of being cool and popular will probably always be part
32、 of the human experience, especially among young people. In and of itself, this is neither good nor bad. But it may be useful to be aware of the differences in these qualities and be clear about exactly what it is that we are pursuing.12What is a common understanding of coolness and popularity?AThey
33、 contradict each other.BThey share a complex connection.CThey are simply the same concept.DThey can only be owned by the young.13Why does the author mention SP and PP in paragraph 3?ATo make a proposal.BTo illustrate a concept.CTo classify popularity.DTo list typical qualities.14Which can be regarde
34、d as being cool?AFollowing suit.BPrioritizing others.CObserving traditions.DChallenging authority.15What does the author think of the pursuit of coolness and popularity?AIts unblamable.BIts rewarding.CIts undesirable.DIts shameful.二、七选五It may come as a surprise that the fashion industry is one of th
35、e most polluting industries in the world, especially when it comes to carbon emissions and water usage. _16_ Clothing production releases 10% of worldwide carbon emissions. Although cotton is often offered as a more sustainable material, one cotton shirt requires 2, 700 liters of water to make, whic
36、h is enough for one person to drink eight cups per day for 2.5 years._17_ However, its undeniable that sustainable companies like Reformation and Organic Basics are out of most peoples price ranges. Fast-fashion clothing companies have the advantage of low prices, and when it comes down to it, most
37、people will choose low prices over sustainability. So, how can people buy sustainable clothing when its not affordable?_18_ Actually, there are other ways to practice sustainable habits. Of course, the best way to limit waste is to not buy any new clothes. For example, saving up to buy more sustaina
38、ble clothes and then wearing them for many years is healthier for the environment and your wallet. _19_ Then you can combine them with your statement pieces to get a variety of new outfits that still feel stylish and dont generate waste. Certainly, buying second-hand clothing is also a great option.
39、With ever-changing fashion trends moving at breakneck speed, consumers are easily persuaded into buying latest designs to stay stylish and sustainable. _20_ Honestly, its unnecessary. Wearing what makes you feel confident will make you look good, and the earth will thank you for your efforts.AThe re
