10、ted me. The mountain came to represent the opposite of everything that I loved and respected about climbing. What had once been the final mountain climbing goal became the focus of a commercial guiding industry. Over the years, the crowds at Base Camp grew, leaving behind tons of trash. Whenever I w

11、as asked whether Id climb Everest, my answer was always the same: not interested.Thats probably where my personal Everest story would have ended, were it not for an old friend and his obsession (执念) with one of the greatest mysteries. In 1999, Thom Pollard began to explore and found the remains of G

12、eorge Mallory, the celebrated British climber who disappeared while attempting to be the first to climb Everest. But Mallorys partner, Sandy Irvine, and the camera he had likely carried, were not found. The mountain climbing world has been wondering whether they might have reached the top in 1924.Po

13、llards story moved me. I began to pack for the climb and expected that our advanced equipment would make it manageable, perhaps easy. I was wrong. On the highest point on the planet, I was more tired than Id ever been in any climbing. Along the way, I continuously tipped my hat, not just to Mallory

14、and Irvine but to anyone who has the drive to push himself or herself up this route. My search was in vain, but I began to reconsider Everest.I witnessed many climbers, who were much more than just self-centered tourists. We shared route information, weather forecasts, and family photos all united a

15、round common goals.I went to Everest to seek Irvine. But in the end, I found something more difficult to get: the spirit that Irvine and Mallory shared. It was hiding in plain sight, right where it has always been: inside the brave souls who risk so much to follow in storied adventurers footsteps up

19、-eastern Spain, for the opportunity to run for their lives as six fighting bulls are released to charge through the town. There are injuries and deaths every year, but the event is of interest to many people. A paper just published in Science describes the insight the event offers into the psycholog

20、y of panicked crowds.That is a useful topic to explore. Architects, civil engineers and urban planners must try to work out how people will behave in the event of a disaster like a fire, a flood or a terrorist attack so they can design their creations to avoid potentially deadly collisions (碰撞). Unf

21、ortunately, solid information is hard to come by. Daniel Parisi, the papers lead author, realized that the Pamplona bull-runs offered the perfect natural experiment.Dr Parisi and his team went to two different rooftop locations in Pamplona in July 2019, and filmed the runners as the animals were rel

22、eased. Later in the lab, they calculated the speed of the runners, the density (密度) of the crowd, the probability of a runner tripping and falling and the relationship between runner-group density and speed.Perhaps unsurprisingly, the researchers found that runners picked up speed when the bulls dre

23、w near. Less expected was the finding that the speed of individual runners increased with the density of the crowd, which was contrary to a long-held assumption in architectural and urban-design circles that people will slow their pace as group density goes up, in order to lower the risk of a collis

24、ion, which could lead to a fall and, perhaps, injury or death.Yet it seems that, in the heat of the moment, people pay little attention to the danger of colliding with each other, and do not slow down. The responsibility therefore falls upon urban designers to work out how best to plan the construct

28、risis finding shocks the worldD. What architects can learn from a bull-runDOn January 1st, 2018, “gaming disorder” in which games are played uncontrollably, despite causing harm gained recognition from the World Health Organization (WHO). Last year, China, the worlds biggest gaming market, announced

29、 new rules limiting children to just a single hour of play a day. Clinics are appearing around the world, promising to cure patients of their habit.Are games really addictive? Psychologists have different opinions. The case for the defence is that this is just another moral panic. Similar warnings h

30、ave been given about television, rock n roll, jazz, comic books, and even novels. As the newest form of mass media, gaming is merely enduring (忍受) its own time before it finally stops being controversial.However, some argue that unlike rock bands or novelists, games developers have both the motive a

31、nd the means to engineer their products to make them addictive. For one thing, the business-model has changed. In the old days games were bought once and for all. But these days, games are free and money is earned from purchases of in-game goods, which ties playtime directly to developers income. Fo

32、r another, games makers combine psychological theory and data, which helps them maximize the playtime. Smartphones and modern video game machines use their permanent Internet connections to send gameplay data back to developers. That allows products to be constantly adjusted to increase spending on

33、games. The gaming industry should realize that, in the real world, it has a problem, and that problem is growing. Now that gaming addiction comes with an official WHO recognition, diagnoses (诊断) become more common. Clinics are already reporting booming business, as lockdowns have given gamers more t

34、ime to spend with their hobby. And being put together in the public mind, fairly or not, with gambling will not do the industry any favours.32. What is the function of Paragraph 1?A. To arouse the readers interest about the topic.B. To inform the readers of the harmful effects of games.C. To discuss

35、 whether it is necessary to panic about games.D. To show growing public concern about the problem of games.33. Why is television, together with other media forms, mentioned in Paragraph 2?A. To prove that the panic over games will fade away.B. To show that they are as highly addictive as games.C. To

36、 compare the differences among these media forms.D. To argue that these media forms are not harmful at all.34. How do games developers make games addictive?A. They dont charge players for in-game goods.B. They adjust products based on received data.C. They reward top players with more playtime.D. Th
