Want to know what your friends are really like？Take a look at their music playlist.More than 36，000 people，from all over the world，took part in an experiment（实验）.It compared their personalities with how much they liked different musical styles.The results show that personalities do influence what we listen to.Here's what certain musical styles say about who you are.
Rock
Like the sound of loud guitars and heavy drum beats？This type of music sounds very exciting，but fans of it are often quite gentle. Country music
If cowboy hats and guitars get you singing along，it's possible that you're hard-working，preferring traditional styles and values.
Jazz
Fans of this strong music always come up with new ideas and are good at learning.If you like the saxophone of John Coltrane，then you're probably self-confident and easy to get on with. Classical music
If Beethoven and Mozart have you turning up the music，you're probably quiet，but happy with who you are and comfortable with the world around you.
But the experiment didn't tell the whole story：where we grow up，who we often go out with，and our personal experiences play into our taste，too.The songs you choose to be part of your life make you different from others.But no matter what style you like，music is for everyone.And enjoying different types of music lets you get a taste of cultures you might not have experienced before.So experiment with your playlist!

Inside the hall，the door was shut，and the key lay on the glass stand.Poor Alice，who was about one foot high after taking some drink，found a cake on the floor.She went up and soon ate all the cake.
"How strange!How tall I am!" said Alice.She looked down at her feet —they seemed so far off.In fact，she was now over nine feet high，which meant she still couldn't get through the door.She sat down，and had a good cry till there was a large pool all round her.
Suddenly，she heard the sound of feet not far off.It was the Rabbit that had come back，with a tan in his hand.Alice felt so in need of help from someone，that when he came near，she called out， "If you please，sir...." The Rabbit started as if shot，dropped the fan and ran off as fast as possible.
Alice picked up the fan and as the hall was hot，she fanned herself. "Dear，dear!How strange all things are today!I do wish to get out of the hall!"she said.
Then she noticed herself in the glass —she was now not more than two feet high，and still shrinking quite fast.That was the fan!She realized this and dropped it at once，or she would shrink to the size of an ant soon.
Alice was in a sad fear at the quick change. "Things are worse，" said the poor girl， "I was never so small as this.How can I get out？"As she said these words，she lost her footsteps and was up to her chin（下巴）in salt water—her own tears.
Just then Alice noticed a mouse swimming towards her.
"Will it be useful now to speak to this mouse？All things are so strange here，I should think maybe it can talk，at least there's no harm to try." So she swam up.

"Wow!Look at that!Isn't it a real fish？"The bionic（仿生） fish，named"Jinlin"，was swimming lively like a real one.It was developed by researchers at Shanghai Ocean University.This invention isn't just for fun-it shows how humans copy nature to solve problems.That is a science called bionics.
Over millions of years，animals and plants have developed smart ways to survive.For example，kingfishers are experts at moving fast between air and water with very little noise.Through their study，scientists discovered that the birds' long beaks（喙） enabled this ability.Then they used the knowledge to change the front of the high-speed train.This change cut down noise level，increased speed by 10% and greatly saved energy.This combination（结合） of biology and engineering is the key to success in bionics.And it has set the stage for the rise of other new technologies.
Driven by robotics and AI，bionics has grown rapidly.The AI-powered bionic fish"Jinlin" can be used for environmental protection and deep sea exploration.In medicine，bionic arms can work similarly to real arms.Sensors allow the user to "feel"touch and pressure.Motors help the bionic arms make movements，like human muscles（肌肉）.With AI，the bionic arms are able to "learn" new tasks and become smarter over time.These inventions are examples to show how bionics bridges biology and new technologies to solve humans' problems.
Although so much progress has been made，bionics faces challenges.Nature's designs are hard to copy perfectly.As for bionic arms，one key area of development is Brain-Computer Interface（脑机接口）.More work on direct communication between the brain and bionic arms is required to control movements as naturally as real arms.Researchers are also working on creating new materials and structures which can sense and repair themselves.
While there's still a long way to go，the future of bionics is full of possibilities.，Stay hungry.Stay foolish.Maybe you'll be the next one to change the world!
23.Why does the writer mention"Jinlin"at the beginning of the passage？ ______
A. To suggest some new ideas.
B. To lead into the topic of bionics.
C. To explain the habits of fish.
D. To show the importance of bionics.
24.What can we learn from Paragraph 3？ ______
A. Robotics and AI have developed fast because of bionics.
B. The bionic fish "Jinlin" is used for medical purposes.
C. Motors allow the bionic arms to make movements.
D. Sensors help bionic arms learn new tasks over time.
25.According to Paragraph 4，how would scientists make bionic arms more like real ones？ ______
①By connecting motors with smart phones.
②By developing new materials and structures.
③By improving Brain-Computer Interface.
④By changing the shape and look of bionic arms.
A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ③④
26.Which of the following shows the use of bionics？ ______
A. Drawing a picture of birds by watching real birds.
B. Building a house with natural materials like wood.
C. Designing a camera by copying some insects' eyes.
D. Learning to dance by studying monkeys' movements.

27.This July，my family and I visited a museum about chocolate called MUCHO Museo de Chocolate in Mexico City，the capital city of Mexico.
When we first arrived at the museum，we were greeted by our tour guide，the only person who spoke English at the place.She let us taste real，dried cacao beans（可可豆） which are what chocolate is made of.But they were so bitter，way different from normal chocolate.
The museum was divided into three parts.In the first one，we learned that the Mayans considered cacao a magical thing that fed the mind，body，and spirit.They would ground（研磨） the beans into powder and mix it with ingredients（食材） such as chili peppers（辣椒） and salt to create a bitter drink.It was then poured from different heights to create foam（泡沫）.Then in the next room，we got to learn about the beginnings of chocolate，see dried cacao tree leaves hung from the ceiling（天花板），and smell the other ingredients that go into making chocolate.I also took photos in front of a wall covered with more than 2，000 pieces of chocolate!My favorite part was the last one which showed many different pots，cups，and kettles from all over the world.They were used to hold chocolate powder.There was even one from China!
The visit to the chocolate museum was short，but I sure did learn a lot about a very popular treat.I was very amazed at how cultures from ancient times could influence our modern lives in such a way and how communications between different cultures could influence each other.I highly recommend it as a stop for any visitor who loves chocolate and even those who don't.
(1) What is chocolate made of according to the text？ ______
(2) What did the Mayans think of cacao？ ______
(3) In which part can visitors find Chinese pots？ ______
(4) What kind of museum would you like to recommend to your friends？Why？（ Write 30 words or more） ______

OCTOPUSES are famous for their round bodies，big eyes and eight arms. （1） ______ But one thing about them is the same：They are good at disguising（伪装） themselves.Octopuses can change their appearance in less than a second!
An octopus can do this in three ways.One is by using color.An octopus's skin（皮肤） has special cells （细胞）.These cells are full of yellow，brown and red pigments（色素）.When an octopus moves its muscles（肌肉） in a certain way，the cells become large.These cells produce colorful spots（斑点） and other patterns（图案） on the octopus's skin. （2） ______ Under blue light，for example，an octopus's skin will look blue.With these cells，an octopus can produce many different skin colors and patterns.
An octopus can also change the texture（结构） of its skin.When the octopus moves its muscles，its skin can go from smooth to spiky（有尖刺的）.It might then look like a plant.（3） ______ Some octopuses，for example，roll their bodies into balls so they look like rocks.One type of octopus can change its shape to look like other sea animals-especially dangerous ones，such as sea snakes.
Why are octopuses so good at changing their looks？They have to be. （4） ______ Because they have no bones in their bodies，octopuses are like large pieces of meat.Many other sea animals want to eat them.To hide from these animals，octopuses have developed this amazing ability.
