27、The 2022 Chinese Visual Ethnographic Photo Biennale(中国民族影像志摄影双年展),which aims to collect and preserve the unique history, culture and cherished memories of China’s a variety of ethnic groups, opened in Beijing on Tuesday.
The exhibition combines a grand narrative of the contemporary lives of Chinese ethnic groups with vivid local scenery, connects ancient Chinese civilization to the new era and mirrors the evolution and rebirth of the traditional culture of the Chinese nation in modernization.
The photographers taking part in the exhibition come from all over China and from various backgrounds such as university students or migrant workers. Some are amateur photographers, while others are professionals.
Liu Hui is one of the photographers whose works are on display at the exhibition. His photos document his in-depth exploration of Daliyaboyi, a village in Yutian county, Northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. Over the past decade, Liu has recorded the lots of changes that have taken place in the village and the impact these have had on villagers’ lives. He has taken more than 150, 000 photos of these villagers who originally lived in the desert. The photos at the exhibition focus on an old herdsman(牧民)in the village. The herdsman and his family have benefited from local poverty-relief policies, moving from the desert to a new town with paved roads. Escaping from a tough environment, the herdsman establishes a new life for himself and his family that blends tradition and modernity.
Yan Shuzhen’s works have also been selected for the exhibition. In a connected series of photos, the photographer creates a window for viewers to appreciate a special traditional ceremony of the Mongolian ethnic group. The cutting hair ceremony is one of the most important and grand ceremonies on the path to adulthood among ethnic Mongolians. During the ceremony, elders send their best wishes for the future to the children taking part, while songs and speeches of praise full of traditional values reveal the rich characteristics of the ethnic group.
At the Biennale, many realistic and moving works grabbed people’s attention. These works demonstrate the progress of China’s ethnic groups and show the backbone(骨气)and full picture of the unified spirit that binds the country’s diverse cultures.
As a spiritual home for the unity of China’s 56 ethnic groups, the Biennale has shown its profound significance in promoting mutual understanding and unity among different ethnic groups in the country.

28、Press your fingers into the back of your head, just above your neck. If you feel a small bony bump (突起), you may find evidence of human evolution: it could be your body responding to common smartphone use in the 21st century.
According to a recent study, published in Scientific Reports, young people increasingly have bony bumps at the base of their skulls, right above the neck, Medical professionals call them enlarged external occipital protuberances. (EEOPs, 枕外隆突)
Australian health scientist David Shahar, author of the study, told the BBC that over the past 10 years he’s seen more and more patients with EEOPs. Together with other researchers from the University of the Sunshine Coast, Australia, they examined 1200 skull X-rays from people aged 18-30. They also measured the bumps and noted each person’s posture (坐立姿势).
They found that one in four people had developed these growths. This led to their theory that smartphones are the cause.
According to their research, looking down at our phones adds stress onto the top of our spines (脊柱). To prevent damage to our spines, Shahar believes our bodies add fresh bony bump to help reduce the extra stress.
In his report, Shahar said the results showed the need for intervention. In other words, we need to change our posture while using our phones.
Apart from EEOPs, other noticeable recent changes in human bodies include smaller jaws, narrower elbows and generally smaller bones. The human body is adapting to modern life, so who knows what people in the future might look like?
【1】What did the recent study find about EEOPs?
A．They grow on one’s neck.
B．They may stop growing when you reach 30.
C．They could lead to many health problems.
D．They increasingly occur among young people.
【2】What is the main cause of EEOPs?
A．Gene problems.
B．Aging bone layers.
C．Cellphone use.
D．Spine injury.
【3】Which of the following would Shahar probably agree with?
A．EEOPs increase the stress on our spines.
B．EEOPs are actually helpful to our spines.
C．Young people’s bones adapt in similar ways.
D．Young people should exercise to improve their posture.
【4】What’s the main purpose of the text?
A．To persuade readers to protect their spines.
B．To recommend some healthy habits of using phones.
C．To explain why human bodies develop EEOPs.
D．To show some recent changes in human bodies.
29、There’s no better way to better understand a foreign culture than through one of its festivals. Here are some interesting festivals in the world.
La Tomatina(Spain)
Last Wednesday of August
This “largest food fight in the world” is believed to have been started with a tomato—but it certainly didn’t end with just one. Now, more than 50,000 people pack the streets of Bunol, Spain, armed with cheap tomatoes, ready to pelt friends and strangers alike. Gloves and safety glasses are suggested as the battle can get quite heated, even though it lasts just an hour. While past years allowed anyone and everyone to take part, the large number of attendees pushed town officials to require tickets.
National Beer Day(Iceland)
March 1
It’s no secret that Icelanders are fond of a bit of partying. After all, when there are days when the sun won’t stop shining, it makes sense to throw a few back to celebrate. However, it wasn’t that long ago(1989) that Iceland was still under a form of prohibition(禁酒令) and unable to sell beer. When the laws were passed to make beer legal on March 1,1989, Icelanders were excited and have since celebrated National Beer Day each March 1 with pub dances and other celebrations that last until the early hours of the morning. Beer has since become the most popular drink in the country.
Lopburi Monkey Banquet(盛宴)(Thailand)
Last Sunday in November
If you’ve ever come in close contact with monkeys, you know that they’re often a bit troublesome, taking a sandwich from your hand without warning or breaking into your hotel minibar if you forget to lock the doors(true story). However, in 1989, in Lopburi, Thailand, a local innkeeper decided to feed the monkeys a banquet as they’re also believed to bring good luck. Thus, a tradition was born and the banquet has grown each year. As the monkeys run into the banquet, they soon get a bit excited and start dancing on the tables and throwing food. For visitors, it’s a highly enjoyable sight—just be sure to wear clothes that you don’t mind being decorated by the monkeys.

30、 Could Buying Paintings Make You Rich?
Is investing in paintings a good way to get rich fast? And how should you invest in art?
“With extreme _______” is the advice of Patrick Connolly, a financial adviser. “We don’t _______ our customers to invest in art because the downsides are greater than the upsides. It doesn’t produce income or earnings. What you _______ is exclusively based on supply and demand, and there are big movements upwards or downwards if there are changes in the economic environment,” he said.
To invest in art as a true investment, you need a starting fund of at least $5,000. But it’s not just about having enough _________ to buy the painting in the first place. Expensive works of art are often stored in protective boxes complete with detectors to monitor humidity and temperature levels, and to protect them from sun damage or other _______ such as a spilled cup of coffee. And if you do put it on your wall, then your insurance costs are likely to be high. If word gets out that you have expensive art hanging on your wall, then you’re likely to be a _______ for thieves.
Art is also not a regulated investment so when things go wrong — for example, an artwork turns out to be a fraud (赝品) — then investors cannot fall back on _______ for any repayment.
Of course given the current environment of low interest rates, that’s still a(n) _______ return than many savings accounts will give you. As art has no association to the stock market, it means paintings can _______ in value even when the market crashes, making it a good option for investment __________.
It is reported that after a decrease in the global art market throughout 2016, auction (拍卖) sales __________ in the first six months of 2017. Yet you don’t necessarily have to be super-wealthy to invest in art. There are a growing number of art fairs and online marketplaces aimed at buyers with a more __________ budget. Most art industry experts suggest that you buy a piece of art because you like it, not because you want to get rich. The most __________ approach is probably to buy something you like and can __________ and, be prepared to keep it just for your own pleasure. If it goes up in value that should be just a(n) __________ benefit.
