He studied it and realized be was looking at a town’s central business district from a bird’s-eye view. He thought, “On the right-band side you should see the three-platform train station”—and there it was. “And on the left-hand side you should see a big fountain”—and there it was.
Everything just started to match.
When he stood in front of the house where he grew up as a child, be saw a lady standing in the entrance. “There’s something about me,” be thought—and it took him a few seconds but he finally remembered what she used to look like.
“My mother looked so much shorter than I remembered. But she came forth and walked forward, and I walked forward, and my feelings and tears and the chemical in my brain, you know, it was like a nuclear fusion (核聚变).

22、After traveling more than seven months in space,Tianwen I is one step closer to Mars! Tianwen 1,China's first Mars probe, successfully entered Mars orbit in February, according to the China National Space Administration (CNSA).【1】
A small step on the red planet will be a big step for human beings. Humans have launched 46 Mars exploration missions since October 1960, but only 19 of them have been successful.【2】 .Tianwen I aims to achieve “orbiting, landing, and roving"all in one jourmey, which will make the country the world's first to accomplish all three goals with one probe, mission scientists said.
Among the three tasks, touchdown on the red planet is the most difficult.The result mainly depends on the "breathtaking seven minutes, which will deploy multiple cutting-edge technologies and accurate timing of each action, including the burning of engines and opening of parachutes to ensure a safe landing. 【3】
February was Mars month. NASA's Perseverance Rover landed on Mars on Feb 19, and China's Tianwen I and United Arab Emirates'(UAE) Hope have arrived within orbit of the redplanet. 【4】 The Mars mission Hope Probe successfully entered the orbit of Mars on Feb 9, the Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC) announced. Perseverance landed in a deep crater near the planet's equator called Jezero and will collect samples of rock and soil for further research, according to the BBC. Tianwen I's ultimate goal is to land a rover on Mars in May or June,and it will conduct scientific investigations on Mars' soil, geological structure, environment, atmosphere and water.
A．Although they started their Mars journeys at almost the same time, their missions vary.
B．It's China's first spacecraft to Mars,and the missions are rather ambitious.
C．It will stay in orbit for about three months before landing on the red planet.
D．After the "Chang'e series" lunar exploration mission came another space exploration project.
E．CNSA is willing to work together with the international community to make new and greater contributions to exploring the mysteries of the universe.
F．The previous success of Chang'e 5 has accumulated experience in this regard, which boosts confidence.
23、A wild Siberian tiger that appeared in a village in Mishan, Northeast China's Heilongjiang province, and hurt a villager has been caught and sent to the China Hengdaohezi Feline （猫科的）Breeding Center in Hengdaohezi township of Mudanjiang city, Science and Technology Daily reported on Saturday.
At about 6 am on Friday, April 23, 2021, local police received a report that a tiger was found in a residential house that was no longer used in Linhu village in Mishan and had hurt a female villager working at the farmland. A group of police officers immediately arrived at the village to secure the scene and evacuate （疏散） the crowd.
Soon after getting the news, wildlife experts and Cui Yan, an expert from the Heilongjiang Endangered Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center, set out from Yichun for the village. After arriving at about 7 pm, the experts successfully caught the tiger into a cage by using an anesthetic （麻醉剂）.
“If we find a wild Siberian tiger in the wild, we just drive it into the mountains,” Cui told Science and Technology Daily. “But this tiger wandered away from where it was supposed to be into the village and might hurt more people, so we had to catch it.” “It was estimated to weigh over 200 kilograms,” he said “We strictly followed anesthetic procedure and finally caught it successfully.” “The tiger has no injury and can move quickly,” Cui said. “We judged that it was not from neighboring Russia because it wasn't wearing a collar. It may have come from the nearby administrative region of the China Tiger and Leopard National Park.”
Experts have collected the blood of the tiger for DNA provenance （出处） identification. On Saturday at noon, the tiger was transported to the China Hengdaohezi Feline Breeding Center for medical examination and health monitoring.
The injured villager had to undergo surgery at Mishan People's Hospital on Friday.
“She suffered some muscle damage and now is in stable condition,” said a nurse from the hospital.

24、All day long, litter builds up between brain cells.A study now finds that trash(垃圾)is washed away by fluids in the brain during sleep.That's potentially good news because such garbage(废物) includes a substance linked to Alzheimer's disease.
Evidence of this brain washing emerged in a study on mice.But the finding gave researchers an idea of what may happen in the brains of sleeping people.
A sleep researcher at the University of WisconsinMadison, Chiara Cirelli called the new finding “eyeopening and exciting”.
Maiken Nedergaard is a neuroscientist.Her team had been studying a drainage process in the brain that acts like a sewer system(排水系统). What the scientists hadn't expected was to find that this system performs a different role during sleep than it does while animals are awake.As animals slept, fluids began flowing from the brain into the spaces between brain cells.These fluids washed away the junk that had built up while animals were awake.
Other studies had shown that during waking hours, brain cells pump out bits of protein and other substances.The longer someone stays awake, the more litter builds up.That trash includes proteins that gather in the brains of people with Alzheimer's disease, which causes people to lose the ability to think, learn and remember.
Once mice fell asleep, fluids flowed into their brains.“It was almost like you opened a tap”, Nedergaard said.As the fluid passed through the spaces between brain cells, it washed away the litter.The tap slowed to a trickle(涓流) when mice woke up.
The scientists then looked closely at the brain cells.They found that the cells shrank during slumber(睡眠)—enough to open space through which the fluid can flow freely.When mice were awake, the cells swelled, lessening the fluid's flow.
The newfound housecleaning activity occurs in a part of the brain that few people study, noted scientist Houzel.“That space between brain cells is usually disregarded.It's considered just space, ”she said.
The new discovery also may help scientists solve an ageold mystery：Why do animals sleep？Every animal does it.Without it, they die, although no one knows why.Some studies suggest that the brain solidifies memories during sleep.However, Nedergaard notes, “You don't die from forgetting what you learned yesterday.”
【1】According to the text, Maiken's discovery was________.
A．a real surprise
B．a natural result
C．a big reward
D．a personal purpose
【2】When we are awake, ________.
A．brain cells take in more proteins

D．our brains have more fluids flow

A．is in fact a kind of space
B．has ever been carefully studied
C．used to be regarded as unimportant
D．is where litter is stored in the end
