centuries along the ancient Silk Road in Gansu,China,the paintings and sculptures in Mogao Caves are now recognized as one of the greatest artistic wonders in the world,which offer a look into the multicultural society that survived for more than a thousand years along the crossroad between East and West.Mogao Caves began as a vision of light.One evening in AD 366,a wandering monk(和尚)named Yuezun saw a thousand golden Buddhas(菩萨)shining on a rock.Inspired,he carved a small cave into the rock.Soon,religious communities began carving out larger caves for public acts of devotion.They decorated their caves with Buddhist decorations.One of Mogaos creative peaks came during the seventh and eighth centuries,when the Tang cave painters displayed a fully confident Chinese style,covering whole walls with vivid Buddhist decorations whose color,movement,and naturalism made the landscape come alive.Unlike Indian Buddhists,the Chinese believers wanted to know in detail all the forms of the afterlife,says Zhao Shengliang,an art historian at the Dunhuang Academy.The purpose of all this color and movement was to show Buddhist believers the beauty of the Pure Land-and to convince them that it was real.But the caves have almost every illness now,Zhao once said in the 1980s,pointing out the damage caused by sand,water,sunlight and tourists.This is the dilemma the Dunhuang Academy still faces:how to conserve the caves while introducing them to a wider audience.The number of tourists visiting Mogao reached more than one million in a month in 2019.The water from all the breathing could damage the paintings more than any other factor.Digital technology may provide the solution.At present,the Academy is re-creating the full 3D experience of the caves not at the site itself,but in a new visitors center 15 miles away.Zhao believes that reuniting all of Mogaos treasures in one place,even virtually,will guarantee that they will never again be buried in the sand.This will be a way,he says,to preserve them forever.28.Which of the following best describes Mogao Caves?A.It came into existence in the seventh century.B.It is a mixture of Chinese and foreign cultures.C.The first cave was helped by the local communities.D.It is one of the greatest natural wonders in the world.29.What is the main purpose of the decorations in Mogao Caves?A To encourage artists to be more creative.B.To reflect the happiness in the present world.C.To show the greatness of the golden Buddhas.D.To convince believers of a good life after death.30.What is the biggest threat to the treasures in Mogao Caves now?A.Sand.B.Flood.C.Tourists.D.Sunlight.31.What does Zhao Shengliang think of digital solution?A.Effective.B.Wasteful.C.ImpracticalD.Expensive.DEvery year,thousands of people gather in Spains northeastern city of Pamplona for the opportunity to run for their lives as six fighting bulls are set free to charge through the town.But the event is of interest not just to adventurous tourists.Daniei Parisi and his team realized that the Pamplona bull runs offered a perfect natural experiment to study the activities of frightened crowds.That is a useful topic to explore.Architects,civil engineers and urban planners must try to work out how people will behave in the event of a disaster so they can design their creations to avoid potentially deadly crushes Unfortunately,reliable information is hard to come by.Authorities,after all,are likely to frown on researchers putting volunteers into serious danger simply to study how they might behave.In July 2022,the researchers set up two cameras on the rooftops and recorded the runners behaviors as the animals were charging through the town.Then they brought their recordings back to the lab to calculate the speeds of the runners,the density of the crowd and the probability of a runner tripping and falling.Perhaps unsurprisingly,the researchers found that runners picked up speed when the bulls drew near.Less expected was the finding that the speed of individual runners increased with the density(密度)of the crowd.At the crowds maximum speed of around four metres per second,density reached roughly one runner per square metre.This finding is contrary to a long-held assumption that people will slow their pace as group density goes up.Their data further suggests that,in the heat of the moment,people pay little attention to the danger of running into each other,and do not slow down.Their conclusion?The only option for the urban designers is to plan wider stairs,tunnels,bridges and other passages in the future.32.What attracted Daniel Parisi to Pamplona?A.The beauty of the small Spanish city.B.The behaviors of frightened crowds.C.The unique traditions of the festival.D.The adventurous spirit of the event.33.What does the underlined phrase“frown onin paragraph 3 most probably mean?A.Disapprove.B.Encourage.C.FundD.Permit34.What surprised Daniel Parisi?A.The crowds moved faster as the bulls came near.B.The fastest runners speed reached 4m per second.C.The runners picked up speed as group density went up.D.Some people stopped to help others in the face of danger.35.What is the best title for the text?A.In Pamplona,Wild Tourists Behave BadlyB.In Pamplona,Bulls Run and Tourism GrowsC.Researchers Survived the Bull Run in PamplonaD.Pamplona Bull Run Shows How Crowds Behave第二节第二节(共共 5 小题小题;每小题每小题 2.5 分分,满分满分 12.5 分分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。The easiest way to lose those extra weight and stay fit and healthy is running since it is both
