Here are the Disney movies recommended by Brandon Dammit for this weekend.
Fantasia 2000
Budget: $80 million
Score: 75%
I remember disliking Fantasia 2000 in theaters as a young child, but I have developed a much deeper
appreciation for the fantastic music as an adult. Disney has employed advanced sound tools to produce a movie that
was under-appreciated at its first appearance.
Pete's Dragon
Budget: $65 million
Score: 60%
I love Disney as much as the younger generation. But it's disappointing to see flavorless remakes like The Lion
King and Beauly and the Beast harvest billions at the box office while more soulful remakes like Pete's Dragon is
largely ignored.
The Rescuers Down Under
Budget: $38 million
Score: 70%
I won't lie to you, kind reader. The Rescuers Down Under is the only movie that I've never seen here and my
honor won't allow me to pretend otherwise. According to Disney, it's about the world's bravest mice, Bernard and
Bianca, who race to Australia to save a boy and a rare golden eagle from a cruel hunter. So, you know, normal Disney
stuff.
The Great Mouse Detective
Budget: $14 million
Score: 72%
Picture this: a young mouse named Olivia is committed to discovering the truth of her father's disappearance in
1897 London, and she got the help from his friends, Dr. Dawson and Toby. It's basically Disney's Sherlock Holmes.
21. What does Brandon Dammit like about Fantasia 2000?
A. The plot. B. The dialogue. C. The music. D. The actors.
22. Which remake should receive better acceptance according to Brandon Dammit?
A. The Lion King B. Pete's Dragon.
C. Beauty and the Beast. D. The Rescuers Down Under
23. How much has Disney spent on the Great Mouse Detective?
A. $14 million. B. $38 million. C. $65 million. D. $80 million.

Sara Dykman is on a 10, 000-mile bike trip, following the monarch butterfly from Mexico through the United
States and Canada and back again. The purpose of her journey is not just to mark the butterfly's migrating（迁徙）
road, but to warn about the threat it faces—and what we can do to help it.
When I reached Dykman by phone, she was biking through Iowa cornfields. She said she feels more upset than
usual, because of what she is seeing-or not seeing—on her travels: Fewer butterflies and milkweed. “In the last two
decades, the butterfly population has declined by about 90 percent as a result of the loss of milkweed, a native plant
that the butterflies need as part of their life cycle,” she said.
Butterflies go through a four-stage life cycle. In February and March, the adult monarch butterflies come out of
winter sleep to look for a mate. Then they migrate north and east to lay their eggs on milkweed plants. It takes about
four days for the eggs to hatch. Then the baby caterpillars（毛毛虫）spend much of their time eating milkweed in
order to grow. About two weeks later, the fully grown caterpillars will attach themselves to plant branches or leaves to
change into butterflies.
But Dykman is not in total despair. A solution, she says, exists within the reach of everyone who owns a home:
simply planting some milkweed in the yards to help the butterflies on their journey.
Dykman lives a life as simple and rootless as the butterflies she loves. She doesn't own a house or car or eat out
at restaurants. She carries only what she needs; a sleeping bag and clothing. People help along the way by providing a
place to stay and a meal.
“I have failed at everything normal, but I'm pretty good at doing the less normal things, ” she admits in her
new book Cycling With Butterflies.
“But this trip is about solutions, and it's about helping people see the consequences of their actions, ” she said on
the phone.
24. What is the main purpose of Sara Dykman's bike trip?
A. To live-stream the migrating butterflies.
B. To ask people to grow more native plants.
C. To warn about the environmental problems,
D. To encourage people to protect the butterflies.
25. What can be learned from paragraph 3?
A. Baby caterpillars are very harmful to various crops.
B. Milkweed plays a vital role in a butterfly's life cycle.
C. Non-native plants are growing too fast in Iowa cornfields.
D. Adult butterflies come out of winter sleep later than they did.
26. What can we learn about Sara Dykman?
A. She is a determined conservationist B. She is a good bread-earner.
C. She is a competent employee. D. She is a comfort seeker.
27. What is the text?
A. A diary entry. B. A book review. C. An interview. D. A news report.

Baidu, a Chinese search engine and artificial intelligence firm, announced its latest electric autonomous driving
vehicle, Apollo RT6, on Thursday. The new vehicle is a fully electric vehicle with a steering wheel（方向盘） that
can be removed when not required. It will cost 250, 000 per unit.
“The steering wheel-free design allows more space for extra seating or other additions and the massive cost
reduction will enable us to put tens of thousands of autonomous vehicles into operation across China, ” Robin Li, co-
founder and CEO of Baidu, said at the firm's Baidu World Conference Thursday. “We are moving towards a future
where taking a robotaxi will be half the cost of taking a taxi today. ”
Baidu already runs Apollo Go and Apollo Moon, taxi services using self-driving robotaxis with safety staff
seated in the driver or passenger seat. They have been in operation in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and
Guangzhou, although the service is limited to specific areas. The new vehicle will soon join those robotaxis.
The RT6 has reached the industry's Level 4 out of five possible levels of technology. That means its systems can
operate without a driver but must be preloaded with a detailed map, thus limiting the areas where the vehicles can
operate. Lower levels of self-driving technology have been available for decades. For example, many Level-3 vehicles
allow hands-free highway driving. Other kinds of self-driving robot vehicles are already widely used in factories,
warehouses and other tightly controlled settings.
Compared to previous generations where the technology was mainly used on conventional vehicles, the Apollo
RT6 was designed specifically with fully autonomous driving in mind.
Baidu is best known for its search engine and online advertising services, but in recent years it has invested
heavily in autonomous driving and artificial intelligence technology, including automated personal assistants and AI
chips.
28. What can we know about Apollo RT6?
A. It is free to run in any area. B. It has to operate with a driver.
C. It will be cheaper to operate. D. It can work without a detailed map.
29. The technology of a fully self-driving vehicle should reach ________.
A. Level 2 B. Level 3 C. Level 4 D. Level 5
30. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. A personal assistant. B. A company.
C. A search engine. D. A fully autonomous car.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. An Introduction to Baidu's Latest Vehicle: Apollo RT6
B. Baidu's Future Plan for Its Electric Vehicle: Apollo RT6
C. Limitations of the Level-4 Sell-driving Electric Vchicles
D. The Great Market Potential for Fully Autonomous Vehicles

On Monday, a lawsuit（诉讼）in the US got huge headlines around the world. It deals with a truly 21st century
issue—whether human genes（基因）may be patented.
Myriad Genetics, a biotechnology company, discovered two genes-BRCA 1 and BRCA 2—that are highly
related to breast cancer. Myriad patented its discoveries and a group of researchers challenged that the patent was
illegal.
The US patent law protects the temporary economic rewards inventors get from their inventions. But it also says
a product of nature or a law of nature can't be patented. For example, Einstein couldn't patent on his discovery of
E=mc2.
And until relatively recently, many of the medical researchers voluntarily gave up patents on their inventions.
When Dr. Jonas Salk, the inventor of the polio vaccine（小儿麻痹症疫苗）, was asked in 1955 whether he had a
patent on the vaccine, he replied, “Could you patent the sun? ”
Myriad Genetics, however, says that the genes it identified are not like the sun. It notes that there are 20, 000
genes in the human body and that it has sorted through all those genes and found the two that are closely related
to breast cancer.
Not so, say those challenging the patent. Human genes are products of nature. They are just a part of the human
body. “All Myriad does is take the part out of the body, ” says the challengers' lawyer, Christopher Hansen. “Can the
person who first takes the heart out of the body patent on hearts? ”
Rochelle Dreyfuss, a patent expert who is not associated with this case, is a little more down to earth. “At some
level it is about money, ” he says, “because medicine doesn't happen for free. The patent system is very important to
encourage companies to spend more money on scientific research and development. ”
Then how do other countries handle this tricky situation? Most countries approve patents on genes, but they also
allow other scientists to use the genes freely to do research and develop new medicines and testing methods.
32. Which of the following can be patented according to the US patent law?
A. The law of gravity force. B. A unique orbit found in space.
C. A new medicine based on BRCA 1. D. The basic working principle of planes.
33. What is Christopher Hansen's argument against the patent?
A. A product of nature can't be patented.
B. Public interests should be put before profits.
C. It is unacceptable to the other countries in the world.
D. The connection between genes and cancers is not obvious.
34. What does the underlined phrase “down to earth” in paragraph 7 mean?
A. Angry. B. Rude. C. Smart. D. Practical.
35. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The consequences of the lawsuit. B. Other countries' solution to the case.
C. The public reactions to the news. D. Some scientists' support for the patent.

It's OK to do a little comfort shopping, especially in these tough times. 36 . Here are a few ways to start
controlling that stress-spending and start saving a little smarter—today.
Make a budget. Don't just think about it in your head. You have to write it down. If it's not written down. then it's
not a budget. Once you've taken into account the necessities like food, shelter and savings, don't forget to put aside
some money for fun. Whether your fun budget is $5 a week or $50 a week, it's important to set that money aside.
Money is not just meant to be responsible with. 37 .
Before you reach for the fun budget money, make sure that what you are buying is a love, a thing that will bring
you lasting joy. 38 . Likes are short-term joy. It means you'll forget these things in less than a year. Wants are
just instant satisfaction and you're not going to be interested in such things even a day later.
Sound familiar? We have all purchased some wants—whether it's a T-shirt or a bag that are now gathering dust
in the closet. 39 , because not only you're spending money that you don't have, but you're actually making your
life less enjoyable.
40 . It's a muscle that you just need to practise by creating a saving account that is disconnected from
your mobile phone. So it isn't convenient to stress-spend that hard-earned money.
A. These things may give you lasting joy
B. These wants are particularly damaging
C. Don't worry if it doesn't come easily at first
D. Be cautious about things you just like or want
E. You're also supposed to use it as a tool to make your life enjoyable
F. But don't let stress-spending get in the way of your long-term saving goals
G. Imaging your future self is a joyful way to think about saving for your future

As I rushed out of the office, thoughts of bills and responsibilities clouded my mind. The weight of the month's
financial struggles pressed heavily on my shoulders. I had two hungry mouths to feed, and the absence of a paycheck
only added to the stress. Coming home late from work, I hurried to collect my two children, since they were already
waiting for me.
As I walked through the busy streets, my heart sank when I received the news-no salary again. Panic set in. How
would I manage the mounting bills, the groceries and my children's needs? The future seemed hopeless.
With a heavy heart, I turned toward the school, my mind racing through desperate calculations.
That's when I saw it—a wallet lying on the sidewalk. It was as if fate had given me a lifeline. Hope rose within
me as I approached it. The wallet was large, and when I opened it, my eyes widened in disbelief at the sight of a
substantial amount of cash neatly put inside. I hesitated for a moment, torn between the immediate relief this money
promised and the morality of keeping it.
Curiosity led me to dig in the wallet, but the only other things it contained were a worn-out photo and a business
card. No matter how much I wanted to take the contents, my moral principles and inner voice told me
not to do this. The decision became clear: I couldn't keep this money. It wasn't rightfully mine.
I went through the wallet and picked out the business card. The name and number were there. With a deep breath,
I dialed the number and explained my find to the voice on the other end. The voice was completely emotionless,
saying that he would stop by. This made me a bit annoyed. At some point, I even regretted my decision, but my
conscience（良心）did not allow me to go back on my choice. I had told the voice where the wallet could be picked
up and went to get my children.
