Peple hate msquites due t their bld-sucking tendencies. Scientists, t, are trubled by msquites and have been researching ways t keep them away.
A team f researchers frm Virginia Tech in the US lked int different kinds f sap. They invited vlunteers t test hw fur different sap flavrs attract msquites. After analyzing the msquites behavir, the researchers discvered several chemicals in the sap that can influence the msquites' "chice f fd". Tw chemicals, ne with the smell f ccnut and anther with the scent f flwers, can keep the insects away.
The team als fund that what matters t msquites is nt just the chemicals, but rather the cmbinatin f chemicals with each persn's smell. Fr example, peple wh attract msquites can be mre attractive t them after using ne type f sap. They can als repel msquites by using anther kind f sap. The finding were "remarkable", said senir authr Clement Vinauger in a news release, adding that he wuld chse a ccnut-scented sap t keep msquites away.
Hw these insects manage t find humans has als made scientists curius. Accrding t a new study published in Current Bilgy, researchers built a "canteen" fr hundreds f msquites. In the 20-by-20-meter facility, there were six pads that had the smell f different humans. The pads were heated t mimic sleeping humans.
They fund that the insects can track scents up t 60 meters. Als, msquites are mst attracted t a kind f chemical called carbxylic(羧基的) acid, which is usually prduced by bacteria n human skin. The smell f ne participant wasn't attractive t the insects, and researchers believed it was due t the persn's diet, which is mainly plant-based fds. By analyzing the chemicals that either attract r repel msquites, scientists are able t imprve msquit repellent. With mre studies, scientists believe changing a persn's diet culd ne day make them "msquit-prf". This is especially beneficial fr regins where msquites carry diseases, such as malaria, CNN reprted.

B. Peple dislike msquites mainly because they carry disease.
C. A Plant-based diet can pssibly prtect peple frm being bitten by msquites.

Frm AI-made jkes t Harry Ptter fashin vides, AI can be used t make funny stuff. But can it be as funny as a human? And if it can, des it present a danger t cmedy writers in the future? That's smething perfrmers have been lking at in this year's Edinburgh Festival Fringe, running frm Aug 4 t 28.
Anyne can put n a shw at the Fringe, and this year even rbts were getting in n the act. One f Fringe's big shws even used a small rbt t cme up with jkes frm audience suggestins, which were then perfrmed by humans. The results culd be very funny, but smetimes they weren't funny at all. That was part f the pint, explained Pitr Mirwski, the shw's c-maker.
"We d nt use humans t shw ff AI; instead, we use AI t shw its limitatins, t shwcase human creativity n the stage," said Mirwski, accrding t the Guardian.
Cmedian Pierre Nvellie said that it will take a lng time fr AI t get gd at creating cmedy. "Cmedy is the last thing that AI is ging t get near," Pierre tld Sky News.
"Even nrmal human cmedians struggle t tune their jkes fr the right crwd at the right time, every time. But that's what's interesting abut stand-up and fun." But ne perfrmer at the Fringe said he's using AI t make jkes fr him because he's ut f ideas. Cmedian Peter Bazely's shw has him playing a supprting rle t "an entirely cmputer-generated cmedian" called AI Jesus. The Fringe review website, Chrtle, talked abut tday's AI cncerns: "In a wrld where artists are wrried that AI culd end up ding their jbs fr them, Bazely is said t be praying this ne will d exactly that."
The reasns fr cmpanies wanting t use AI are certainly understandable, but the dangers they present t many peple's jbs are becming mre and mre real, and that's nt very funny.
Back in March f this year, a letter calling fr a six-mnth stp n advanced AI develpment was signed by ver 1000 peple wrking with AI technlgies including Eln Musk and ther well-knwn tech leaders, reprted The New Yrk Times. Then, in May, leaders in the AI industry signed a dcument frm the Center fr AI Safety warning that AI culd present an exhibitin-level danger and "shuld be a glbal pririty alngside pandemics and nuclear war."
32. Hw des the authr begin this text?
A. By raising questins. B. By listing figures.
C. By making cmparisn. D. By quting thers.
33. Accrding t Mirwski, what may be a purpse f Fringe shw?
A. T shw ff AI's pwer. B. T reveal AI's disadvantages.
C. T present AI's creativity. D. T prmte AI's develpment.
34. What can we infer frm the fifth paragraph?
A. Humans have n imaginatin in making jkes.
B. Mst cmedians give up playing leading rles.
C. AI can always meet different audience's demand.
D. Nt all artists are wrried t be replaced by AI.
35. What is the attitude f the authr tward the applicatin f AI?
A. Psitive. B. Cncerned. C. Objective. D. Indifferent.

Life isn't fair. Sme peple just seem blessed with the ability t effrtlessly charm(吸引) anyne they meet. Well, it might seem like a magic al pwer, but in fact there are a number f factrs at wrk. 36 The answer is: t a large extent, yes yu can.
But first, the bad news. Peple at first judge each ther accrding t physical appearance. With just a glimpse f a face, peple make quick judgements abut each ther's likeability, trustwrthiness and cnfidence. Hw shuld we deal with this? 37 Peple regard a smiling face as mre trustwrthy, warmer and sciable. It sunds like cmmn sense, desn't it? Smile and thers will smile with yu.
What ther tricks might we have? 38 Cnsequently, three things we can d t signal that we are nt a threat: raise ur eyebrws quickly, raise ur heads slightly, and nce again, t smile.
S we've lked at bdy language, but f curse what yu say is hugely imprtant t, unless yu want t just stand there smiling flishly. The glden rule f friendship is if yu make peple feel gd abut themselves, they're ging t like yu. In ther wrds, yu shuld nt talk abut yurself and all yur wnderful achievements. 39 .
Finally, finding cmmn grund helps frm a cnnectin. Charming peple are particularly skilled at seeking ut shared interests r experiences t bnd with thers. 40 And if all else fails, yu can fall back n that mst British tpic: the weather. It can be a nice start f a cnversatin.

When we were finally dismissed frm the last class f the day, the students streamed ut f the classrms. It was anther bring day after schl. I dragged my feet hme as I sighed. Yet anther uneventful day, I thught. Little did I knw that the day wuld take a turn fr the wrse.
The lift lbby(電梯間) f my flat was ld and dirty. The walls, which were painted white, had been dirtied ver many years. I reached my flat's lbby, and pressed the lift buttn and went in. Just then, Mrs Lim, my elderly neighbur, hbbled(蹣跚) in. She lked ancient with tissue paper white hair, wearing a faded ld-fashined dress. I held the lift dr pen, flashing a friendly smile, and plitely greeted her. I asked her hw she felt that day and pressed the buttns. She thanked me fr being s plite, then we were silent fr the rest f the ride.
The lift fell dwn increasingly fast. There were lud clanking sunds here and there while the lift grew slwer and slwer. My heart beat hard and fast as my hands turned cld and wet with sweat. Unfrtunately, the lift came t an abrupt stp at the fifth flr. I pressed the buttns hard several times, but it was f n help. The lights n the buttns had gne ut. It sn dawned n me that we were trapped. An icy fear crept up my spine. Mrs Lim was hysterical(歇斯底里).
