15、 north China, had been wondering about the structure(构造) of ancient wooden buildings. In 2013, he came across a model of an ancient building made of wood when he visited a private museum of Chinese architecture in Shanghai, which brought back images of the old wooden structure in his hometown.Later,
16、 he decided to devote himself to making toy blocks of dougong, a tool used in ancient buildings, which can be taken apart and reassembled (重新组装). “ I hoped to reveal the secrets of the old buildings to let people experience the fun of learning about these buildings,” Liu said.And he started selling
17、these wooden toy blocks on Taobao, the online shopping platform operated by Alibaba. His family and friends thought the business would be unsuccessful since few people knew about or had an interest in old architecture. Besides, Liu had no knoeledge of the field. But he didnt listen to them since he
18、felt a special connection from his childhood calling him. He started to take crash courses in architecture and construction.Up to now, Liu has launched(推出) nearly 40 products, gaining recognition from industry insiders and popularity among consumers. “ The blocks made me realize there are many struc
19、tures in an ancient building that were overlooked by us. I am ready to buy more models of this kind,” a consumer commented on Taobao.Instead of plastic, Liu insists on using wood to make toy blocks. He said wood is both strong enough to bear weight and flexible enough to survive unfavourable conditi
20、ons. “When we turn real structures into toys,” Liu said, “errors during production are limited to below 0.25mm.” Mass production is expected to lower costs so that more families can afford the toys for their children. Liu expected that more children could learn what dougong is.24.Why did Liu Wenhui

24、rchers say is heavily influenced by fathers. Researchers from Brigham Young University discovered that fathers are in a unique position to help their adolescent children learn persistence.BYU professors Laura Padilla-Walker and Randal Day arrived at these findings after following 325 American famili
25、es over several years. And over time，the persistence gained through fathers led to higher achievement in school.There are relatively few studies that stress the unique role of fathers，Padilla-Walker said. This research also helps to prove that characteristics such as persistence-which can be taught-
26、are key to a childs life success.”Researchers determined that dads need to practice an authoritative parenting style. Authoritative parenting is not authoritarian:rigid,demanding or controlling. Rather，an authoritative parenting style includes some of the following characteristics:children feel warm
27、th and love from their father；responsibility and the reasons behind rules are stressed; children are given an appropriate level of autonomy(自主权).In the study，about 52 percent of the dads exhibited above-average levels of authoritative parenting. A key finding is that over time，children raised by an
28、authoritative father were significantly more likely to develop persistence，which leads to better outcomes in school.This particular study examined 11 to 14-year-olds living in two-parent homes.

32、ion (创新) is not a word Im fond of. Its used too often today, and it has lost its significance. More useful to you, perhaps, is that of its many meanings youll find in a dictionary, and the most powerful is “significant positive change”. If the thing offered represents a significant positive change f
33、or whomever it is offered to, by definition(), its an innovation.All the sayings about beginnings are true, at least in part. The history of innovation is large enough that all the sayings, from Platos famous “Necessity is the mother of invention” to Emersons “Build a better mousetrap and the world
34、will beat a path to your door”, hold some truth.The trap and the myth are that evidence supporting one claim doesnt mean there isnt equally good evidence supporting another. Invention and innovation have many parents: the Taj Mahal was built out of sorrow; the Babylonian Gardens were designed out of
35、 love; and the Brookllyn Bridge was motivated by pride. Name an emotion, motivation, or situation, and youll find an innovation somewhere that it seeded.Steve Jobs, founder of Apple and Pixar, was asked, “ How do you systematize innovation? It is a common question among CEOs and the business communi

Its as absurd a question as asking how to control weather.Jobs, or any CEO, might have a system for trying to manage innovation, or a strategy for m

The Boeing 777 has jet engines engineered for guaranteed 99.99% reliabilitynow thats s system.Its true that innovation is riskier than enginee
38、ring, but that doesnt mean we should use words like system, control, or process so casually.32. Why does the author dislike the word innovation?A. It has too many meanings. B. It is overused.C. He isnt interested in new things.D. There is no real innovation.33. Why does the author give some examples
39、 in Paragraph 3?A. To indicate invention and innovation come from different sources. B. To show innovation was very common in ancient times.C. To indicate the development of inventions.D.
