15、wimmingC. should have a knowledge of first aidD. can do any sport they areinterested inBOne of the major problems facing nursing homes is that patients don't move around enough. All too often the elderly end up sitting and looking at a wall or into a television. They're usually not motivated

16、 ( 有积极性的) to exercise,partly because getting moving again after a long period of inactivity can cause pain, and partly because it's not interesting to sit and look at a wall while you bike.A new research project from Aalborg University in Denmark may have the solution: virtual reality (VR). The

17、project, led by Jon RamBruun-Pedersen, uses the technology to get the elderly on exercise bikes, thus turningexercise into a virtual experience.In Bruun-Pedersen's study, large TV screens were set up in front of the exercise bikes in the nursing home's activity room. While they biked, the21

18、seniors rode through various virtual landscapes on the TV screen. The bikes were connected with the screens so the speed the subjects biked with was related to their speed through the landscape.“ The study showed that seniors were happy with the experience and really lived it, ” says Bruun-Pedersen.

19、 “ They felt as if they had to ride harder to get up the hill on the screen. ”Next, the elderly subjects wore VR glasses with small screens in front of their eyes. The feeling is very true to life, and the elderly subjects vividly （ 逼真地 ） experienced being out in the great outdoors even though they

20、were still on an exercise bike in the activity room.“ We set the study up so the elderly could ride in the same landscapes they knew from the screens. They took to the experience amazingly well, ” Bruun-Pedersen said. “ The seniors' desire to use the exercise bikes greatly increased. ”“ This is

21、really good, ” he says. “ Partly because it's good for them physically to movemore, but also because I wanted them to experience getting out in the world even if it's a virtual world. ”24. According to the text, what is a reason why the elderly seldom movearound?A. They are not in good healt

22、h.B. They are afraid of gettinghurt.C. Doing exercise may be painful.D. It's more interesting towatch TV.25. Whatcan weinfer （推断） about the seniors' experience in Bruun-Pedersen's study?A. The VR glasses helped them bike easier and faster.B. They tried to avoid moving around in the outdo

23、ors.C. They had to ride harder when climbing a virtual hill.D. The faster they biked the quicker they traveled on screen.26. What did the subjects of the study think of their virtual cycling tour?A. Enjoyable. B. Dangerous. C. Relaxing. D. Tiring.27. How is the text mainly developed?A. By giving exa

24、mples.B. By making comparisons.C. By asking questions and answering them.D. By raising a problem and offering the solution.COld paintings are helping experts unlock a mystery about people from longago. Experts say the art and the pyramid belonged to the Mayan civilization. A civilization is a societ

25、y. The Mayas were native peoples who lived more than 1,000 years ago in what is now Mexico and Central America.The murals （ 壁画 ） are about 1,350 years old. So far, experts have discovered about 30 of them in Calakmul, Mexico. They show scenes of everyday Mayanlife. It s a side of the Mayas that has

26、rarely been seen before, even though researchers have studied the civilization for about a century, says expertMichael Coe. “ Wenever had anything like this before, ” Coeexplained. “ This is something that s completely new to us. ”Most Mayanart shows howrulers and royalty （贵族 ） lived. The newly disc

27、overed murals are of regular citizens doing ordinary things, such as shopping and eating. One painting shows a woman selling tamales to a crowd of customers.Another is of people eating corn. Other murals show Mayan goods being transported to market. “ Mostly you get the murals that show gods and kin

28、gs, never anything about daily life, ” Coe says. “ This is like walking into a Mayan supermarket. ”The Mayaswere more than just painters. They developed their own form of math. They also studied science and the universe. The Mayas were writers, as well. They made books out of the bark （ 树皮 ） of fig

29、trees. The civilization also came up with its own form of hieroglyphics.Some of the recently uncovered murals include hieroglyphics that label （标注 ） the people and objects with pictures. Thanks to the paintings, researchers have learned a few new hieroglyphics, including those for the words corn and

30、 salt. “ Some of the hieroglyphics are still very hard to understand, ” Simon Martin, one of the experts studying the symbols, explained. “ I will be working on those and hope to understand them. ” Scientists are busy excavating the rest ofthe pyramid. They re not surewhy the Mayas created the struc

31、ture or the murals on it, but they hope tolearn more as they continue to dig. Martin believes there are at least a dozen murals left to be discovered. The work will be slow going though. The ancient paintings must be treated with care so they re not damaged. “ It s rare to find paintings like these

32、in such good condition, ” Martin said. “ But we know that there are more still to be uncovered. ”28. What did the experts discover in Mexico?A. Several Mayan books.B.

35、tings.D. A form of writing that usespictures.DThe old farmhouse had been too big and too lonely since my husband Martin passed away. I wandered around the empty rooms searching for something to do. As a matter of fact, nothing was fun without Martin. My daughter Jane lived in another town about fift

36、y miles away. It wasn t a great distance, but she was busy with a job and two young boys.One morning, I saw a skinny little dog coming from behind the house. His tail and his head were lowered and he watched me with wary （ 警惕的 ） eyes as he slowly approached. If he hadn t been so dirty he would have

37、probably been white, but he was so caked with mud that it was hard to tell. Sighing, I cut up a few pieces of meat and put them on a paper plate and filled a bowl with water before going back outside. At the sound of the screen door, the dog lifted his head, a hopeful look in his chocolate eyes. I p

38、laced my offerings at the edge of the porch （ 门廊 ） and watched him for a moment. He eyed the plate of meat hungrily and lifted one paw （爪 ） as if to step forward, buthe was afraid. I went back inside the house, knowing he would quickly eat the food once he felt safe.When I went out to get the mail I

39、 saw that the dog was asleep on my porch.I looked through the mail, feeling certain that I would find a card from Jane. Saturday had been my birthday.

41、ile down at him and pat his head. He gave a small whimper （ 呜咽声 ） as if to tell me that he also needed a little love and affection.I looked down at the dog, amazed that he had put aside his own suffering to offer me comfort. He had been on his own, alone, hungry and afraid. He had no way of knowing

42、how I might react to his display （展示 ） of affection. Hecould have been driven away and shouted at, but he gave me what he sensedI needed. He was smelly, but at that moment he was the most attractive dogI had ever seen. I thought that Martin would be a good name for this warm, friendly dog. Now I sti
