10、 on the tradition, fashion designer Mary Yu, 41, who has been attending classes teaching knot button-making techniques, is trying to renew the design of qipao by taking symbols from Chinese history and literature.I feel I should look into Chinese culture and learn more about the past. People should
11、have an in-depth understanding of their culture in order to move on, Yu says. Fashion design requires a profound knowledge of ones culture before visualizing it.After a period of wearing foreign brands all the time, there will be a day when one looks back to traditional Chinese culture. It is about
12、finding the stuff that exists in your genes and suits you best.Yu set up her own qipao brand in 2016. Most of the clothes were made by tailors based in Shenzhen and Hangzhou, for their lower cost and more traditional work.In the constantly evolving fashion industry, qipao is catching up with the tim
13、es. Zippers, digital print patterns and new materials such as lace and denim have been introduced to a new generation. More daring ideas like 3D printed qipao have also become a reality.

Qipao is seen as a symbol of wealth in modern China.CWhile the human world is suffering from the novel coronavirus outbreak, our planet is actually showing certain signs of recovery from the damage caused by human activity. According to the BBC, new satellite images released by the
18、 European Space Agency showed that levels of air pollutants and greenhouse gases have fallen sharply in major cities in Europe and the United States ever since the lockdown started.This is a great example of how the world can change overnight as soon as people change their behavior-especially after
19、recent discoveries in Antarctica.An international team of 89 scientists found that the ice in Greenland and Antarctica is melting six times faster in the 2010s than it was in the 1990s. And in February, Argentinas Marambio research station in Antarctica recorded a record high temperature of 20.75 on
20、 the continent.So what exactly will happen if the temperature keeps rising and the ice keeps melting? A third study might give you an idea. A team of scientists drilled a hole into the seafloor in west Antarctica and extracted material from underground, in which they found traces of roots, spores an
21、d pollen-typical products of a rainforest-that dated back 90 million years ago. In other words, Antarctica was very likely a rainforest back when the dinosaurs walked on Earth.But given the fact that the South Pole has four months of darkness winter-even millions of years ago-scientists believe that
22、 the rainforest could only exist if the greenhouse gas concentrations were extremely high back then to keep the continent warm when there was little or no sunlight. We didnt know that this Cretaceous (白垩纪的)greenhouse climate was that extreme, Johann Klages of the Alfred Wegener Institute in Germany
23、and a co-author of the research told the Guardian. It shows us what carbon dioxide is able to do.Ice or no ice, Antarctica will be-and has always been-fine with extreme changes. The human world, however, may not be.Now, during the coronavirus lockdown, weve seen the changes resulting from less human
24、 activity. Hopefully, well hold on to those changes-not for Antarctica or the planet, but for ourselves.8. What message does the author mainly want to convey in the first paragraph?A.

There is little we can do to recover the environment in Antarctica.D. Limiting human activities can be used to slow down global warming.DMost of us use web browsers(浏览
29、器)out of habit. However, there are a lot of similar apps for us to choose in the appstore. They serve the same purpose: visiting a website. So if the differences are minimal, why bother looking for something else?As a matter of fact, a new type of internet navigator(导航器), called a private browser, h
30、as emerged over the last three years. What stands out is that they minimize the data gathered about us by blocking the technologies used to track us, when most mainstream browsers, such as Chrome from Google, have been trying to develop a new way to target us with ads.Private browsers generally rely
31、 on something called private mode, which is a browsing session that does not record a history of the websites you have visited. Firefox Focus, DuckDuckGo and Brave are all similar private browsers, but with some important differences.Firefox Focus, available only for mobile devices like iPhones and
32、Android smartphones, is the basic one. You input a web address and, when done browsing, hit the trash icon to erase the session. Quitting the app automatically purges the history.The DuckDuckGo browser, also available only for mobile devices, is more like a traditional browser. The company says it i
33、s more focused on privacy because its ads do not track peoples online behavior. When done browsing, you can hit the flame icon at the bottom to erase the session.Brave is also more like a traditional web browser. It includes a private mode that must be turned on if you dont want people scrutinizing(
34、仔细检查)your web history. Brave is so aggressive about blocking trackers that in the process, it almost always blocks ads entirely. The other private browsers block ads less frequently.For most people, not seeing ads is undoubtedly a benefit. Brendan Eich, the chief executive of Brave, said, If everybo
