21、Mind-wandering can help boost our mood
Prior research suggests a wandering mind is an unhappy mind: We tend to be less happy when we're not focused on what we're doing. That's likely true.【1】 For example, as one 2013 study showed, when people found their wandering thoughts more interesting, their moods actually improved while mind-wandering. Similarly, other studies have found that thinking about people you love or thinking more about your potential future than about what happened in the past produces positive results.
How you use mind-wandering may also be important. 【2】 It has been mostly unexplored in previous research, but likely has distinct effects. As one 2017 study found, people who use daydreaming for self-reflection typically have more pleasant thoughts than people who simply think about unpleasant experiences.
There is even some evidence that mind-wandering may be more of an antidote (缓解方法) to depression than a cause. People who are depressed may simply replay events from their past to better understand what happened to cause their dark mood and avoid future problems. Also, when researchers studied whether a negative mood preceded or allowed a mind-wandering episode, they found poor moods led to more mind-wandering but not vice versa. 【3】
Now, findings from a 2021 study suggest that mind-wandering that is more freely moving can actually improve your mood. In this study, participants were prompted randomly via cell phone over three days to report how they were feeling and how much their thoughts were freely moving and related to what they were doing. After analyzing the data, the researchers found that when people's thoughts were of-task, they generally felt more negative—similar to what earlier findings showed. 【4】“Our findings suggest there might be positive aspects of mind-wandering," the researchers conclude.
【5】 If I simply put myself in a space that lets my mind move freely, I don’t get depressed. On the contrary, I'm happier because of it.
A．In some cases, people intentionally mind-wander.
B．Mind-wandering is part of our human inheritance.
C．Again, I find that science supports my own experience.
D．There may be a right and a wrong way to mind-wander.
E．But if their thoughts were free -moving, it had the opposite effect.
F．In fact, the content of wandering thoughts makes a big difference.
G．It suggests that mind-wandering may be helping people feel better.
22、 As doctors and nurses struggle for medical supplies to fight coronavirus pandemic,help is coming from an unlikely place﹣high school students. The Careen Technical Education Charter High Scholl（CTEC）,US,has been using its nine 3D printers to make face masks for healthcare workers on the frontline.
Face masks have been particularly challenging to find across the US since the outbreak Valerie Castro,16, a CTEC student,is part of a team of teachers and students who came up with improvement that cut almost 30 minutes off the time it takes to build a face mask.
"That's what makes this school kind of different. " Gavin Newsom, Governor of the State of California，said. "Even though all these bad things are happening，we're able to make an impact positively . It's like leaving your little mark on the world. " Makerbot，a New York﹣based company that makes 3D printers，has also helped CTEC to maximize the building process. They've been churning out nearly 100 masks each day, and that production rate is set to be three times as 20 more 3D printers come online at the school.
CTEC staff and students have provided masks to hospitals，dentists, urgent care centers and retirement homes in Fresno County and the surrounding areas in California. "I was shocked," Stacy Vohra told school staff in video. "We were so thrilled to have the donation from CTEC. This is something that we've been needing. "
"The entire staff has switched from daily teaching to face mask production，" said Jonathan Delano，director of CTEC. "When the new 3D printers arrive，some of them will go to students' houses so kids can help with the hands﹣on process. "
"That's how we get through these things，" Delano said. "Our high school focuses on giving back to society. Students should know the skills they hold can have an impact on a community. "

B.Astonished and excited.
C.Disappointed and frustrated.
D.Inspired and joyful.
【4】What's the main idea of this passage？

23、Welcome to Vietnam!
Day 1: Endangered Primates and Stunning Landscape Of Ninh Binh
After breakfast take the electric car to the Endangered Primates Rescue Centre. Here, they focus on the conservation of the gibbons (长臂猿) and langur (叶猴). You will have chance to see how the staff feed them in captivity and semi-wild areas of primary forest. Then you’ll see how their behavior is studied in semi-wild conditions and how they are prepared for full release into the wild.
Day 2: Cruising Halong Bay
A delicious lunch will be served as you slowly sail through this Halong Bay. It was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1994. Mid-afternoon head to the Vung Vieng fishing village by local rowing boats to explore the interesting daily lives of its inhabitants. In the evening you will experience a Vietnamese cooking meal served in the main dining room. Evenings are beautiful on Halong Bay. Relax on the top deck and take in the transformation of the bay.
Day 3: Discover Hue the Authentic Way
Today, you will get a taste of what real life is like in Hue. One of the city’s most famous cooking experiences is the Royal Dinner. You will have a unique experience where you will have a private audience with descendant (后裔) of the last royal family of Vietnam, in her own home. Spend time tasting the real dishes that were once served to royalty.
Day 4: Walk to the Hang Tien Cave
Hang Tien is actually two huge caves, one of which is over 3km long. The wonder lies in unusual rock formations, such as breathtaking rock formations that look like terraced rice fields, giving the caves an otherworldly feel.

24、Less than 5 percent of elephants die from cancer, and researchers may have finally figured out why.
According to a study from The University of Chicago, elephants produce "zombie genes" (僵尸基因)that can help protect the animal from cancer.
Here's how it works: Humans and other animals carry one copy of a " master tumor suppressor" Gene(主肿瘤抑制基因). Elephants have 20 copies. Scientists found that gene can cause a "zombie gene" to come back to life with a new purpose: killing cells in damaged DNA.
This is beneficial. because it acts in response to genetic mistakes, errors made when the DNA is being repaired, said Vincent Lynch, an assistant professor of human genetics at the University of Chicago and the study's lead author, in a statement. " Getting rid of that cell can prevent a subsequent cancer. "
Scientists say the gene also helps elephants enjoy long lives. They likely emerged roughly 25 to 30 million years ago, when small - sized ancestors of modern elephants grew bigger, Lynch said.
Researchers want to conduct more studies to find out exactly how the genes in elephants kill off cells in damaged DNA. That could help humans: Studying how animals' bodies fight off cancer could lead to strategies to treat people. An estimated 17% of people worldwide die of cancer, according to the study published in the journal Cell Reports.
"If we can understand how these genomic changes (基因组变化 ) are contributing to cancer resistance, then we'll be able to start thinking about how we translate these to our patients. "Joshua Schiffman professor of pediatrics at University of Utah and an investigator at Huntsman Cancer Institute, said in an interview with CNN.

A. They have less "zombie genes".
B. They eat less meat and more grass.

【2】The "master tumor suppressor" gene brings the following benefits except that .

C. it can kill cells, in damaged DNA D. it can bring "zombie genes" back to life
【3】What does the underlined word "these" in the last paragraph refer to?
A. genomic changes B. cancer resistance
C. animals bodies D. cells in damaged DNA
【4】What is still a "puzzle" for researchers?
A. How many people die of cancer.
B. What kind of gene can kill the cancer
C. Why we adopt the strategies to treat people.
D. How the genes defeat the cells in damaged DNA.
