23、ater has long interested humans greatly. Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever finishing such a thing without man-made aidwe simply weigh too much, and all our weight pushes down through our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.However, several types of animals
24、can walk on water. One of the most interesting is the common basiliskBasilicus basilicus, a lizard (蜥蜴)native to Central and South America. It can run across water for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the waters surface with its feet. The lizard will take as many
25、 as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. For humans to do this, wed need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate hitting. But fortunately there is an alternative: cornflour. By adding enough of this common thickening material to water (and it does take a lot),
26、 you can create a liquid that doesnt behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles(粒子）in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of a
27、n adequately thick liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may sound, its still rather messy and better read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings(浮圈) handy in case you start to sinkand take a shower afterward!28Walking on water hasnt become a rea

31、ally.Many hosts of such shows have become popular for their ability to eat large amounts of food. But these shows have also received criticism for their waste of food. While some hosts actually do consume the amount of food shown, others may be faking it.On Aug 12, CCTV exposed several Chinese hosts
32、 who were pretending to eat large amounts of food while on camera, but actually later threw it away.To discourage this practice, many video and livestreaming platforms, including Douyin, Kuaishow and Bilibili, have removed videos that show food waste, and have promoted messages to “stop food waste a
33、nd eat reasonably.”In June 2020, the United Nations warned that the world is close to the worst food crisis in 50 years.According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, about a third of the worlds foodis wasted every year. In China alone, 50 million tons of food ends up in l

In August, President Xi Jinping stressed the need for safeguarding food security and stopping food waste.According to China Daily, restaurants and catering associations（餐饮协会） in mor
35、e than 18 provinces and all 4 municipal cities（直辖市） have issued guidelines to control food waste.In Shanxi province, local restaurants have been asked to serve half portions to avoid waste. The Wuhan Catering Association proposed that restaurants adopt the “N-1 mode”. For example, a group of 10 dine

Most people believe the best way to build a great team
41、is to gather a group of the most talented individuals. 36Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent?37They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed. For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but
42、 only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent; above that level, the teams performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this trend isnt evident in baseball, where additional individual talent keeps improving the teams performance.To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored
43、the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate(协调) their actions. 38In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent
44、, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is, for example, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the teams perfor
45、mance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, “There is no I in TEAM.” 39Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tug-of-war(拔河比赛), whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with l
46、ess force.40 An A-team may require a balance-not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.AIts not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent.BSports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent.CThe group interaction and its effect drew the researchers attention.DS
47、tars apparently do not follow this basic rule of sportsmanship.ESeveral recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.FBuilding up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.GThis task interdependence （互相依赖）distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.第三部
