10、f 2017. As Katie Paterson, the creator of the Future Library, puts it: “Future Library is an artwork for future generations.” These projects, more than a century in the making, are part of a new wave of slow art intended to push viewers and Participants to think beyond their own lifetimes. They aim
11、to challenge todays short-term thinking and the brief attention spans of modern consumers, forcing people into considering works more deliberately. In their way, too, they are fighting against modern culturenot just regarding money, but also the way in which artistic worth is measured by attention.
12、In a similar fashion, every April on Slow Art Day, visitors are encouraged to stare at five works of art for 10 minutes at a timea tough task for the average museum visitor, who typically spends less than30seconds on each piece of art. - 3 -Like the Future Library, the century cameras are very much
13、a project for cities, since its in cities that time runs fastest and the pace of life is fastest. “Since I started living in a city, Ive somehow been quite disconnected,” Anne Beate Hovind, the Future Library project manager, who described how working on the library drew her back to the Pace of life

Now theyre finding some theories may apply to one group of monkeys. Researchers recently taught six monkeys how t
18、o use money. They gave the monkeys small metal disks(圆片) that could be used like cash and showed them some yummy apple pieces. The monkeys soon figured out that if they gave one of the disks to a scientist, they d receive a piece of apple in return. If you think that is all the monkeys can figure ou
19、t, you are wrong. Two researchers, Jake and Allison, acted as apple sellers in the experiments. The monkeys were tested one at a time and had 12 disks to spend in each experiment. Jake always showed the monkeys one apple piece, while Allison always showed two pieces. But thats not necessarily what t
20、hey gave the monkeys. The number of apple pieces given for a disk was determined at random. Experiment One: Allison showed two pieces of apples but gave both pieces only half the time. The other half, she took one piece away and gave the monkey just the remaining piece. Jake, on the other hand, alwa
21、ys gave exactly what he - 4 -showed: one piece for each disk. The monkeys chose to trade more with Allison. Experiment Two: Allison continued to sometimes gave two pieces and sometimes one piece. But now, half the time, Jake gave the one apple piece he was showing, and half the time he added a bonus
22、. Guess what? The monkeys chose to trade more with Jake. In the first experiment, the monkeys correctly figured out that if they traded with Allison, theyd end up with more treats. In the second one, when a monkey received two pieces from Jake, it seemed like again. When Allison gave the monkey only
23、 one piece instead of the two she showed, it seemed like a loss. The monkeys preferred trading with Jake because theyd rather take a chance of seeming to win than seeming to lose. We also sometimes make silly business decisions just to avoid the feeling that were getting less, even when were not. Wo
24、uld you have made the same choices?28. What conclusion might experts draw from the first experiment?A. The monkeys show certain business sense. B. Business theories can apply to all monkeys. C. People are smarter in terms of finance. D. Its easy to teach monkeys how to trade. 29. What does a bonus i
25、n paragraph 5 refer to?A. A metal disk. B. An apple piece. C. A chance. D. A coin. 30. Why did the monkeys choose to trade more with Jake in the second experiment?A. Because Jake always gave them two apple pieces. B. Because the apple pieces from Jake were yummy. C. Because they didnt like the feeli
26、ng of losing. D. Because they get more apple pieces from Jake. 31. What could be the best title for the passage?A. Peoples Business Decision: Lose or Gain? B. Monekys Business Sense: Smart or Silly?C. Shopping for Bargain: Same or different? D. Disk for Apple: Who to Trade with?DCities usually have
27、a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade.

Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their live
31、s.But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found.
