He was a few years into a new passion: scuba (水肺) diving. He sa
11、ys spending time under water is like visiting an alien planet full of strange creatures.Dylan grew up in Maple Valley Washington, just outside of the liberal blue bubble of Seattle. Dylan learned young how to hunt and do farm work. On October 31, 2012, he decided to marry his love of scuba diving wi
12、th his desire to be self-sufficient and harvest his own food. That gray morning, the goal was to pull a giant pacific octopus from its den, wrestle it to the surface and take it home for dinner.He and a friend headed to the popular dive site at Cove 2 in West Seattle. With his bare hands, Dylancaugh

Once you start to panic, youll drown,” said Dylan, recalling his 45-minute hand-to-tentacle (触须) battle with the octopus.But when he hauled it out of the water, people nearby didnt look very happy. Dylan and his dive partner threw the octop
14、us in the back of their truck and quickly left the scene.Even though what Dylan did was perfectly legal and even though octopus is on restaurant menus all over the Northwest, the taking of this particular octopus touched a nerve. Adult members of the diving community that Dylan was so excited to be

18、listening to various types of music while they paint, write, or draw. Many believe that music helps boost creativity, but an international study conducted by English and Swedish researchers is challenging that belief. Their findings indicate music actually stymies creativity.To come to their conclus
19、ions, researchers had participants complete verbal insight problems designed to inspire creativity while sitting in a quiet room, and then again while music played in the background. They found that background music “significantly damaged” the participants ability to complete tasks associated with v
20、erbal creativity. The research team also tested background noises such as those commonly heard in a library, but found that such noises had no impact on subjects creativity. The tasks were simple word games. For example, participants were given three words, such as dress, dial, and flower. Then, the
21、y were asked to find a single word associated with all three that could be combined to form a common phrase or word. The single word, in this case, would be “sun” (sundress, sunflower, etc). Participants completed the tasks in either a quiet room, or while exposed to three different types of music;
22、music with unfamiliar lyrics, instrumental music, or music with familiar lyrics.“We found strong evidence of damaged performance when playing background music in comparison to quiet background conditions,” says co-author Dr. Neil McLatchie of Lancaster University.Dr. McLatchie and his colleagues the
23、orize that music interferes with the verbal working memory processes of the brain, blocking creativity. Also, as far as the library background noises having seemingly no effect, the studys authors believe that was the case because library noises create a “steady state” environment that doesnt disrup
24、t concentration. Its worth mentioning that even familiar music with wellknown lyrics damaged participants creativity, regardless of whether or not it caused a positive reaction, or whether participants typically studied or created while listening to music.“To conclude, the findings here challenge th
25、e popular view that music strengthens creativity, and instead demonstrate that music, regardless of the presence of semantic (语义的) content (no lyrics, familiar lyrics or unfamiliar lyrics), consistently disrupts creative performance in insight problem solving,” the study reads.24. Why are Mozart and
26、 Metallica mentioned at the beginning?A. To prove they are very creative. B. To introduce the topic of the text.C. To show the importance of music. D. To offer some background information.25. What does the underlined word “stymies” in the first paragraph probably mean?A. Blocks. B. Boosts. C. Inspir
27、es. D. Strengthens.26. If the participants were given the words fire, place and book during the game, a proper answer could be .A. man B. store C. work D. birth27. What do we know about the study?A. The tasks were very difficult for participants to finish.B. All participants were exposed to two diff
28、erent types of music.C. Music with famous lyrics didnt harm participants creativity.D. Library background noises hardly affected participants creativity.CHeart disease is one of the major killers in the world today. Many who suffer from it must have heart transplants. However, its difficult to get a
29、 suitable heart donation, and even if a patient survives the wait, his or her body often rejects the heart.But there is now new hope for sufferers of heart disease. According to a study published in the journal Advanced Science, researchers from Israels Tel Aviv University printed a 3D human heart o
30、n April 15.“This is the first time anyone anywhere has successfully engineered and printed an entire heart,” professor Tal Dvir told CNN. Unlike the previous 3D-printed heart structure, the new heart is complete with cells, blood vessels, chambers and other structures a heart needs to function norma
31、lly. But scientists still have more to figure out before the 3D-printed heart can be fitted into the body. For one thing, the experimental heart is only the size of a thumb. And, although it can contract like a muscle, it cannot pump out blood like a real one. At present, the heart prototype is like
32、 a tiny airplane that has all of the right parts, but cant fly.However, the development is still regarded as a major breakthrough in medicine.In the experiment, the researchers turned human fat tissue into human heart tissue with stem cell technology. The tissue was then turned into “bio-ink” for a 3D printer to ensure that tissue in the heart came from the patients themselves. So ideally, if it were to be placed in th
