Here, it changed into something sad and symphonic: blues. Blues was not born in Chicago, but it was here that it found a new voice and began to

It was here in Sun Studios in the summer of 1951 that Ike Turner and his band the Delta Cats recorded “Rocket 88”, widely regarded as the first rock and roll song.

16、.B. Jazz.C. Hip-hop.D. Rock and roll.BOn Monday, Xu Mengtao won her first Olympic gold in womens aerials (空中技巧) at the 2022 Beijing Winter Games. It was not hard to see what it meant for Xu: When the score 108. 61 came up with a “1” by her name, she pointed one, then two fingers to the sky and let o
17、ut a scream. “Xu is one of the handful of women to consistently try the high-risk triple flips (三周空翻) over the years,” said American Ashley Caldwell, another triple-flip enthusiast who finished fourth. “While triple flips are not unheard of among the women, the list of athletes who have tried them c
18、onsistently is short. At the last two Olympics, only four of the 12 finalists tried triple flips in the final round.”Womens aerials is a sport full of risk-takers but all the risks are very calculated. Since the competitions go through a series of qualifying and elimination (淘汰) rounds that include
19、only one jump each, only a select few over the years have been willing to give up the certainty of a solid score with a double flip for the triple flips. Xu doesnt adopt the strategy and keeps trying the triple flips. “It adds extra some might say unnecessary risk to the early rounds,” Xu once said.
20、 “But Im OK sacrificing some good competition results to make the sport look good.”Failures at the last three Olympics tested the limits of how much Xu was willing to sacrifice. In meet after meet, from Vancouver to Sochi to Pyeongchan, her strategy kept her away from the gold medal but she kept pus

This is a winning night for womens aerials, too,” Xu said after the award ceremony. “If a lot of girls are doing triple flips up there and I fall, there would still be a lot of girls who would do well. If I mess up, thats OK.”24. What can we infer f

24、t describes Xu Mengtao?A. Determined.B. Curious.C. Calculating.D. Outgoing.CTheres more information out about the results of Finlands much-watched basic income experiment, and it should prove particularly interesting to policymakers around the world who are considering introducing such a system. The
25、 idea of a basic income involves giving citizens a fixed amount of money for nothing. Finland ran an experiment with two thousand unemployed people through 2017 and 2018, and its Labour Institute for Economic Research (Kela) started reporting on the results in February.In its first report, Kela said
26、 the basic income didnt much affect the amount of work that the subjects picked up during the experiment, but it did make them feel more confident about their ability to find work.On Thursday, Kela released further results, noting that survey respondents felt less stressed about their finances and m
27、ore in control of their lives but also that the basic income appeared to change the way they felt about society. Heres where it gets interesting for policymakers. According to Kela, “Respondents who received a basic income had more trust in other people and in public institutions politicians, politi
28、cal parties, police and the courts than members of the control group.”The idea of basic income has gained attention in recent years, largely due to fears over automations effect on employment. In the US, a universal basic income is one of the core proposals of 2020 presidential candidate Andrew Yang
29、, who insisted that it would not make people lazier. The Finnish results seem to back him up on that. In India, the Congress party is promising basic income for 250 million of Indias poorest people. The UKs Labour Party is also warming to the idea, and plans to add a basic income to its next campaig
30、n.28. Which country has already tried the basic income experiment?A. The US.B. The UK.C. Finland.D. India.29. What did Kelas initial report say about the experiment?A. It reduced peoples willingness to work.B. It made people more confident to find jobs.C. It increased peoples trust in public institu

The acceptance of the idea of basic income.D. The benefits of a universal basic income.31. From which is the text p
32、robably taken?A. A newspaper.B. A science fiction.C. A textbook.D. A lab report.DOne of the greatest mysteries in science is just how Earth went from a planet with minimal oxygen to the breathable air we have now. Scientists long figured that cyanobacteria (蓝细菌) were involved, but couldnt tell what
33、started the great oxygen-producing cycle. A new study published in Mondays Nature Geoscience may provide the key. It theorizes that Earths gradually lengthened day from six hours to the current 24 hours kick-starts cyanobacteria into producing lots of oxygen, making most of life as we know it possib
34、le. Here are the takeaways of the study. About 2. 4 billion years ago, there was so little oxygen in Earths atmosphere that it could barely be measured, so no animal or plant could live. Instead, lots of bacteria breathed in CO2, and in the case of cyanobacteria, produced oxygen in the earliest form
35、 of photosynthesis (光合作用). At first it wasnt much. But in about 400 million years, as Earths rotation (旋转) gradually slowed down and the day was lengthened from six hours to the present 24 hours, the cyanobacteria breathed more and more oxygen into Earths atmosphere until it reached one-tenth the am
36、ount of oxygen we have now. The increased oxygen allowed plants to join in the oxygen-making party. The authors of the study put their theory to test with the bacteria found on a 24-meter-deep seabed in Lake Huron. They exposed the smelly bacteria, which are very similar to the cyanobacteria living
37、around 2. 4 billion years ago, to varying amounts of light, and found that the more continuous light the bacteria got, the more oxygen they produced. “What makes the idea so convincing is that it doesnt require any big biological changes in bacteria or the worlds oceans,” said Tim Lyons, a professor
38、 at the University of California, Riverside, who wasnt part of the research team. “This may be a simple but plausible explanation for Earths oxygen increase.”32. What started the oxygen-producing cycle according to the new study?A. Earths faster rotation.B. The lengthened daytime.C The bacteria in L
39、ake Huron.D. The appearance of plants on Earth.33. What is the main purpose of the experiment?A. To protect the cyanobacteria.B. To study the similarities of the bacteria.C. To provide evidence for the theory.D. To improve the oxygen level on seabed.34 What does the underlined word “plausible” in th
40、e last paragraph mean?A. Reasonable.B. Sincere.C. Complex.D. Unacceptable.35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. The Rotation of Earth Is Slowing DownB. Cyanobacterias Role Has to Be Re-examinedC. A Breakthrough Is Achieved in Ocean ProtectionD. Earths Slowing Rotation Increa
