simplest things to do. its the simplest and easiest form of paper art. and paper art can be traced back to japan, where it originated over a thousand years ago. however, theres a special minority who takes paper art to the next level, magically turning the plain white or colored paper into some of the most amazing artworks. check out the following artists and their works!the danish artist peter callesen is famous for his talent in combining the minimalism(极简的) of a white sheet of paper with the complexity of carefully cut and folded paper and uses the two to build out some pleasing works. the british artist su blackwell often goes to secondhand bookstores to look for materials with which she can carve out delicate sculptures. the models look as if they “grow” naturally from the pages of the books. the artist finds inspiration from the book title or a paragraph or picture inside and then spends months carefully slicing each one into an eye-catching paper model. her old book sculptures sell for up to5,000 each.by carefully folding simple pieces of paper, german artist simon schubert creates amazing masterpieces. he turns paper into architectural masterpieces by folding a simple piece of paper to shape the creases(摺缝), then unfolding it to show the fascinating artwork.another master of paper-folding is jen stark. her artwork is often in the form of colorful caves and topographic(地形的) maps. using her vivid imagination and a special knife, she is a modern day magician who turns humble materials like construction paper and glue into fantastic, complicated sculptures that puzzle the eyes. her work draws inspiration from nature.36. according to the passage, paper art _.a. is about plane-folding b. is most rich in japanc. dates back to 1000 b.c. d. is now on a new level37. the british artist mentioned in the passage _. a. combines the minimalism and complexity of paperb. often gets inspired by secondhand booksc. makes architectural masterpieces with simon schubertd. is a magician who uses simple paper materials38. according to the passage, jen stark _.a. is from germany b. works also as a magicianc. creates things too puzzling to understand d. uses paper to build complicated shapes39. what does the underlined word “humble” in the last paragraph probably mean?a. common and popular b. simple and cheap c. useless and priceless d. numb and meaningless40. what can we learn from the artists?a. every dog has its day. b. all that glitters are not gold.c. one cant make brick without straw. d. the greatness may come from ordinariness.bit seems that people are gradually losing their smartness as smartphones become increasingly important assistants in their lives. as we rely too much on technology instead of our brains, many people have lost three basic abilities. the first skill many people have lost is remembering phone numbers. because phone numbers are stored in smartphone contacts, theres now no need to dial a number or look at it again. this is fine until you need to call someone for help, only to find your phone is not around. and some people may also have lost their sense of direction because navigation apps can guide people anywhere they want. people get so dependent on them that when they cant use their smartphones, they get lost and anxious.but the worst lost skills may be social ones, meaning that some people are becoming socially inept(无能的)people often bury themselves in their smartphones. as were too absent-minded by whats happening in the virtual(虚拟的)some of us have lost conversational skills and sometimescant even distinguish whether a person is happy or not.last august, researchers at the university of california, los angeles, studied 51 students aged 11 and 12 who had over five hours screen time every day. their task was to tell the emotions of 48 pictures of faces that were happy, sad, angry or scared. the children made an average of 14. 02 mistakes at the beginning. but after a five-day camp without electronic products, they made only 9.41 mistakes on average. luckily, people still have a chance to get these abilities back. you should try to keep your parents numbers in mind for emergencies. you should also pay more attention to street signs and stores , which will help you to draw a mind map and stop you from getting lost. and the easiest solution to social skill loss is to take a break from electronic products.67.the underlined sentence in the second paragraph implies that . a. you are able to turn to others for help b. others are able to call you anytime and

samrtphonesdtrying hard to break away from smartphones intelligence71the writers attitude towards electronic products is . acritical bsympathetic csupportive doptimisticc. many people are stuck in a life they dont want, held in place by everything from financial restrictions to societal pressures. if you are looking to pursue your dreams, it can be discouraging to change everything at once.
