27、There is a curious love triangle that sits at the center of the new documentary Fire of Love. It’s between a man, a woman and a volcano. Well, all of them are volcanoes.
Their names might not be especially well-known today, but in the 1970s and ‘80s, French scientists Katia Krafft and Maurice Krafft were very famous for their photographs and writings about the volcanoes. When they died in 1991 on Mount Unzen in Japan, their deaths were covered globally. But their story has somewhat faded in the public memory in the past three decades? though Werner Herzog did spotlight them in his 2016 documentary Into the Inferno.
The Kraffts? who first bonded over Mount Etna and Mount Stromboli and were married in 1970, witnessed about 140 eruptions on every continent except Antarctica and won an Emmy for their National Geographic documentary Mountains of Fire. They would famously drop everything to get to an active volcano, and were often the first on site. They were also known for their willingness to get dangerously close.
Filmmaker Sara Dosa once met the Kraffts while making an earlier film about Iceland many years ago. In 2020, with the help of Image’ Est, a French museum, and Maurice Krafft’s brother, Bertrand Krafft, Dosa and her team were able to get access to over 180 hours of footage shot by the Kraffts. So Dosa decided to make something about the Kraffts in the true spirit of the Kraffts.
“We wanted to let them play themselves. We see them as the authors of their own story,“ Dosa said. ”This is a co-creation, shot by them and starring them. We’re just stringing together the pieces of their life for the audience to connect with.”
However, Fire of Love is anything but a filmed Wikipedia(维基百科)page. Dosa and her team have drawn on the techniques of French New Wave films to help shape the style of their film, including playful multiple screens.
【1】Where did Katia Krafft and Maurice Krafft pass away?

28、 The World Health Organization (WHO) recently said that it planned to add gaming disorder to its new list of disease classifications, angering the gaming industry but pleasing doctors who hope it may make treatment more easily available.
Some US experts said it would make little difference when it comes to helping people with the disorder, although others said it would bring attention to a disorder that people sometimes don't recognize.
Many of us enjoy video games, but does playing our favorite game for a couple of hours every night mean we're suffering from gaming disorder? Not, according to the WHO.
The symptoms (症状) listed by the WHO include a lack of control over gaming, treating gaming more seriously than other life interests and daily activities, and continuing to play games despite the negative consequences that playing them might have.
“The behavior pattern is enough to result in large damage to one's personal, family, or social life,” the WHO said.
Meanwhile, Douglas Gentile of Iowa State University has carried out influential research into the cause of gaming addiction in young people.
“I and many others had assumed that gaming is not really a problem but is a symptom of other problems,” he told NBC News. Many had thought it was simply a failure of self-control.
To see if it was, Gentile's team studied a group of children who had been gaming for several years.
“We found that when kids became addicted, their anxiety increased and their grades decreased,” Gentile said.
When kids were able to back off from gaming, their symptoms disappeared, he added.
Gentile thinks medical organizations should pay attention to the WHO's suggestion.
“This isn't an issue of opinion; it's an issue of science,” he said.
“This is a major scientific and medical organization. They don't do things lightly and without reason.”
Dr Petros Levounis, chair of psychiatry at the New Jersey Medical School at Rutgers University, said that he hoped the WHO's suggestion would lead to more research into obsessive(过度的) behavior among all types of people.
“Now, there is renewed interest and excitement,” he said.
【1】Which of the following is a sign of gaming disorder according to the WHO?
A.Putting games before everything else.
B.Playing games for several hours every night.
C.Having no hobbies but playing games.
D.Keeping playing until winning the games.
【2】Why is Gentile's research mentioned?
A.To explain the cause of gaming addiction.
B.To show the impact of gaming disorder.
C.To show the reasons behind the WHO's decision.
D.To introduce the study that influenced the WHO's proposal.
【3】What did Levounis think of the WHO's decision?
A.It needed further research to make it more convincing.
B.It would do little to help people with gaming addiction.
C.It would encourage new cures for gaming disorder.
D.It would encourage studies about diseases similar to gaming disorder.
【4】What's the article mainly about?
A.The WHO explaining what gaming disorder is.
B.New research findings about gaming disorder.
C.The benefits of defining gaming as a disease.
D.The discussions about defining gaming disorder as a disease.
29、 The man who invented the World Wide Web a few decades ago is calling for major changes to make it better for humans. In an open letter published on Tuesday, Berners-Lee said that the web was used by half the world's population.
Berners-Lee said the web had clearly created great opportunities for humans to progress and had made life easier for millions of people. Actually, it also has offered opportunities to groups traditionally not heard a new voice in society. However, he added that the web had also provided new ways for cheats to commit crimes (犯罪).
“Against the background of news stories about how the web is misused, it's understandable that many people feel afraid and unsure if the web is really a force for good,” he wrote.
Berners-Lee created a group called the World Wide Web Foundation. He is looking for help from governments, companies and people to become more involved in shaping the web to do more good for humans. His actual plan is called the “Contract (合同) for the Web”.
Under this contract, governments are called on to take steps to make sure all people can connect to the Internet and that personal privacy is respected. Businesses are asked to keep the Internet prices low so more people can use the web. In addition, companies should respect privacy and develop technologies that aim to put people first.
The plan also calls on people to create materials for the web and work with others to make sure that is rich, quality information for everyone. Besides, people should seek to “build strong communities that respect personal speech and human equality.” “The path to make the Internet better is the responsibility of everyone who uses it,” Bermers-Lee added, “Making big changes will not be easy, but will be very well worth it in the end.”
【1】What does Berners-Lee think of the World Wide Web?
A.It is his greatest regret.
B.It stops the progress of humans.
C.It needs improving.
D.It does more harm than good.
【2】What's wrong with the web according to Berners-Lee?
A.It is misused for bad purposes.
B.It is misunderstood by all people.
C.It blocks out a new voice in society.
D.It is expensive for half the world’s population.
【3】What are governments called on to do under the “Contract for the Web”?
A.Put technology first.
B.Create materials for the web.
C.Popularize the Internet.
D.Make the Internet free of charge.
【4】What should people do with the Internet in Berners-Lee's opinion?
A.Be responsible for it.
B.Absolutely reject it.
C.Completely rely on it.
D.Be unconcerned about it.
