24、The size and shape of your ears show your character more than any other part of the face. Other parts of the face change shape as we get older, but ears do not change their shape. They only change in size.
Reading people’s character from their ears is an old science. In very old times people thought that a person with big ears had a good and generous character. They thought that a person with pale, small ears was dangerous. They also thought that the shape of the ear showed if a person was musical. Today, too many people believe that the size and the shape of the ear help you know if a person is musical.
Ears are all different, and each characteristic has a meaning. Next time when you look at a person, see if his ears are large, medium-size or small. Look at the lobes (the lowest part of the ear). Do they stick to the face? Ears that are always red mean a person may easily get angry, or he / she just has high blood pressure(高血压). Ears that are always cold and pale mean a person has a nervous character. And a big inside hole of the ear means a person is musical.
【1】As a baby grows up, _________.
A. the eyes may not change
B. the ears will not change in size
C. the face may not change
D. the ears will not change in shape
【2】We can guess Beethoven(a world-famous musician) may have________.
A. ears with a big inside hole B. round white ears
C. ears with a hole in the lobes D. big red ears
【3】What is the best title of the article?_________
A. Ears don’t change B. The change of ears
C. Ears and characters D. Ears and colour
【4】Which sentence is right according to the passage?
A. Mr. Smith’s ears have big inside holes, he may be nervous.
B. Jack’s ears are always small and pale, he may have high blood pressure.
C. Tony’s ears are sometimes red, he may easily get angry.
D. Mary’s ears are big, she may be a good and generous person.
25、
Do you know who was described as “superhuman” by the great inventor and astronomer Galileo? It was Archimedes who solved the king’s problem of the golden crown while taking a bath. He was perhaps one of the most outstanding scientists in the world. He was a mathematician, physicist, engineer, weapon designer and inventor. He was wise in philosophy, active in mathematics and physics. He was also recognized as one of the finest engineers of his time. He was born on the island of Sicily in the city of Syracuse around the year 287 BC and died in 212 BC.
Archimedes showed great love for mathematics. He made many discoveries. For example, he determined the exact value of pi. He invented and developed methods similar to calculus (微积分) and used them to find the area of a circle and an accurate estimation (估计值) of the value of pi.
Today he is regarded as one of the greatest mathematicians in history. Archimedes used his mathematical skills and talents to create useful inventions. One of his most famous inventions is called the Archimedes’ Screw. It was a device that could lift water to higher levels. One of its first uses was to pump water out from a leaking ship. It is still used today in some places to move water from low places to high places. This invention influenced Leonardo da Vinci as he worked on developing the functioning flying machine.
Can you imagine counting the sand in the universe? Archimedes once tried to calculate the number of sand grains in the universe. Obviously, it was impossible but it goes to show that he was too smart. His intellectual curiosity and achievements to mathematics, in general, would go on to encourage other mathematicians as well. Most of his achievements were by far ahead of his time. Archimedes was in deed a genius.

26、It seems that paleontology (古生物学) has nothing to do with fun. However, some online videos about it have become popular with young people. These videos are created by Fun Stuff, a science account (账户) on Bilibili. It has posted about 150 videos. And these videos have been viewed over 100 million times in total.
The creators behind Fun Stuff are Tang Cheng and Cai Chunlin. They’re a couple and both of them studied science at university.

In 2018, Tang and Cai began to translate some English science videos and shared them on Bilibili. The next year, they began to make their first video. It is about an amazing animal living half a billion years ago. In the video, Tang talks about the animals’ appearance and habits and why it died out. The special narration (解说) style and clear explanation of scientific facts soon made the video a hit. Since then, the couple has made a lot of videos about ancient creatures.
