7．There once lived a rich businessman who had a lazy son．The businessman wanted his son to realize the value of labour and said："Today，I want you to go out and earn something，failing which you won't have your meals tonight．"
    He went crying straight to his mother．Her heart melted at her son's eyes．She gave him a gold coin．When the father asked his son what he had earned，the son presented him the gold coin．The father asked him to throw it into a well．
    The next day，he asked his son to earn something．This time he went crying to his sister who gave him a coin．When he showed it to his father he again asked him to throw it in a well．Then the father asked him to earn more money．
    This time since there was no one to help him，the son was forced to go to the market．One shopkeeper told him he would pay him two coins if he carried his trunk to his house．He did so and sweated plenty．As he returned home he was asked to do the same．The son almost cried out．He could not imagine throwing his hard-earned money like this．He cried，"My entire body is aching．You are asking me to throw the money into the well．"
    At this moment，the businessman told him one feels the pain only when the fruits of hard labour are wasted．On the earlier two occasions he was helped and therefore had no pain in throwing the coins into the well．The son had now realized the value of hard work．He promised never to be lazy and to safely keep the father's wealth．The father handed over the keys of his shop to the son and promised to guide him though the rest of the life．

14．If you could be anybody in the world，who would it be？Your neighbour or a super star？A few people have experienced what it might be like to step into the skin of another person，thanks to an unusual virtual reality（虚拟现实）device．Rikke Wahl，an actress，model and artist，was one of the participants in a body swapping experiment at the Be Another lab，a project developed by a group of artists based in Barcelona．She swapped with her partner，an actor，using a machine called The Machine to Be Another and temporarily became a man．"As I looked down，I saw my whole body as a man，dressed in my partner's pants，"she said．"That's the picture I remember best．"
The set-up is relatively simple．Both users wear a virtual reality headset with a camera on the top．The video from each camera is sent to the other person，so what you see is the exact view of your partner．If she moves her arm，you see it．If you move your arm，she sees it．
To get used to seeing another person's body without actually having control of it，participants start by raising their arms and legs very slowly，so that the other can follow along．Eventually，this kind of slow synchronised（同步的）movement becomes comfortable，and participants really start to feel as though they are living in another person's body．
Using such technology promises to alter people's behaviour afterwards-potentially for the better．Studies have shown that virtual reality can be effective in fighting racism-the bias（偏见）that humans have against those who don't look or sound like them．Researchers at the University of Barcelona gave people a questionnaire called the Implicit Association Test，which measures the strength of people's associations between，for instance，black people and adjectives such as good，bad，athletic or awkward．Then they asked them to control the body of a dark skinned digital character using virtual reality glasses，before taking the test again．This time，the participants'bias scores were lower．The idea is that once you've"put yourself in another's shoes"you're less likely to think ill of them，because your brain has internalised the feeling of being that person．
The creators of The Machine to Be Another hope to achieve a similar result．"At the end of body swapping，people feel like holding each other in their arms，"says Arthur Pointeau，a programmer with the project．"It's a really nice way to have this kind of experience．I would really，really recommend it to everyone．"
32．The word"swapping"（paragraph 1）is closest in meaning toA．
A．exchanging B．building C．controlling D．transplanting
33．We can infer from the experiment at the Be Another lab thatC．
A．participants will live more passionately after the experiment
B．we can learn to take control of other people's bodies
C．our feelings are related to our bodily experience
D．the Machine to Be Another can help people change their sexes
34．In the Implicit Association Test，before the participants used virtual reality glasses to control a dark skinned digital character，B．
A．they fought strongly against racism
B．they were more biased against those unlike them
C．they changed their behaviour dramatically
D．they scored lower on the test for racism
35．It can be concluded from the passage thatC．
A．technology helps people realize their dreams
B．our biases could be eliminated through experiments
C．virtual reality helps promote understanding among people
D．our points of view about others need changing constantly．

12．Born with easy-broken bone disease，Zhang Yonghong is only half a meter tall and must use a wheelchair．His thin arms and legs can hardly support any weight，and he is unable to take care of himself．However，his hands are able to produce fine paper-cuts，which will free his daughter from the same disease．
To support himself，he learned how to make paper-cut art from his mother．He sold his artwork and taught his techniques in Xi'an for eight years before discovering his young daughter inherited the disease from him，leading Zhang to move his family to Beijing for his daughter's better treatment five years ago．
The daughter's treatment costs about 30，000 yuan a year．The family's savings was used up in two years，and Zhang was forced to start to sell his work in underground passages with his healthy wife，who soon left him because of the hard life．
With a little help from government，he was lucky to meet some kindhearted people in Beijing．A Hong Kong businessman gave 60，000 yuan to him last year to treat the girl and start a small shop on Qiangulouyuan，which is known as a famous hutong that attracts lots of tourists over holidays．Zhang Rui，a university graduate，spends most of her time helping Zhang sell the paper-cuts，translating the stories the paper-cuts tell into English and selling the works on the roadside of Nanluoguxiang．
However，the artist still lives beyond his income （收入） and struggles to continue his small business．"Selling paper-cuts is his only source of income．Without this，he can't support the family and treat his daughter，"says Zhang Rui，who hopes more people will help Zhang．
