Maxim is a wheelchair dancer, and does both ballroom
10、style dancing and figure skating on ice.He initially took up dancing when he was 14 years old as a way to strengthen his body-in particular his left arm and fingers which had limited functionality at the time. Gradually, he began to think about becoming the standing partner of a person using a wheel
11、chair; however, his challenges with balance meant it wasnt going to be possible. His mother and coach suggested he get into a wheelchair himself. He unwillingly got into a wheelchair but was quickly pleased by his progress.The possibilities without a partner were limited, so Maxim went on in search
12、of a dance partner. With only some practice with his first partner, the pair took part in their first tournament, where they performed well. While his start in partner dancing was good, finding a right partner wasnt easy. His mother would get in touch with the girls parents or coaches and the vast m
13、ajority had very rude reactions as soon as they found out he was disabled.His coaches drove him to grow and develop as a dancer, and came up with some great techniques to help him. His dancing was improved even further when his third coach forced him to think in the way a standing dancer did. Maxim
14、says this is what helped his performance to look like dancing rather than just rolling back and forth on the dance floor.Maxim says his greatest pride is having taken his dancing skills on ice. He is the first high level figure skater in a wheelchair, and still the only one to this day. Maxim is tak
15、ing a break from dance because of health issues, but he recently participated in a Russian Virtual Reality Project which aims to motivate people with disabilities to get more active in real life.4.

18、ues.B. Thinking like a standing dancer.C. Helping people with disabilities.D. Making some progress in dancing.CWhat acts of kindness will make us the happiest, and who tends to benefit the most? A newly-published review of decades of kindness research provides some answers.In this paper, researchers
19、 analyzed the results from 126 research articles looking at almost 200, 000 participants from around the world. The studies they chose measured well-being in various ways, including both mental and physical health. Some were experiments, where people did a kindness practice to observe its effects, w
20、hile others just surveyed people about how kind and happy they were.As expected, people who were kind tended to have higher well-being. Lead researcher Bryant Hui was astounded that the relationship wasnt stronger than it was, but he was still encouraged by the results.One thing Hui and his colleagu
21、es found was that people who performed random, informal acts of kindness, like bringing a meal to a sad friend, tended to be happier than people who performed more formal acts of kindness, like volunteering in a soup kitchen.The researchers also found that people who were kind tended to be higher in
22、 eudaimonic happiness(a sense of meaning and purpose in life) more than hedonic happiness(a sense of pleasure and comfort). Perhaps this makes sense, given that being kind takes effort, which reduces comfort but could make people feel better about themselves and their abilities, which would provide
23、a sense of meaning.Being kind came with greater eudaimonic happiness for women than for men, too. According to Hui, this could be because, in many cultures, women are expected to be kinder than men; so, they may have more to gain from it. And younger participants experienced more happiness when they
24、 were kind than older participants, perhaps for developmental reasons, he says.Hui isnt sure why acting kind might have these different effects on different groups, but he points to theories put forth by researcher Elizabeth Midlarsky: Being kind may make us feel better about ourselves as a person o
25、r about the meaning of our lives, help us forget our own troubles and stresses, or help us be more socially-connected with others.8. What does the data in the second paragraph intend to show?A.

Which of the following acts of kindness can make one feel happier according to paragraph 4?A. Volunteering in a h
27、ospital.B. Cleaning a community.C. Returning a lost item to its owner.D. Collecting donations for the poor.11. What do the researchers find from the paper?A. Being kind has different effects on different groups.B. Eudaimonic happiness makes people feel comfort.C. The younger experienced more happine
28、ss than the older.D. Female participants are kinder than male ones.DLuggage-free travel, boarding queues and self-flying planes will be common for travelers in 20 years time.

Hammond bets that
31、 planes will be flying themselves in 2040. No pilots and no supervision.
