4 of the best films to watch this May
Hypnotic
A police detective, haunted by the disappearance of his daughter, is investigating a series of bank robberies when a mystery woman tells him about “hypnotics” (催眠): people who have the power to make others believe and do anything they want by uttering a single sentence.
Released on 11 May in Australia, 12 May in the US & 26 May in the UK
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3
It’s been six years since Marvel’s second Guardians of the Galaxy film came out. Star-Lord, Gamora, Rocket, Drax and their buddies are finally back for more interstellar adventures — and this time they’re up against the High Evolutionary.
On general release from 5 May
The Little Mermaid
Another month, another live-action-and-CGI remake of a classic Disney cartoon. But this one is more distinctive than most, because a black actress, Halle Bailey, is playing the title character, who was white in the 1989 cartoon. Besides, the film’s director, Rob Marshall argues that his version of The Little Mermaid is progressive in other ways, too. He said she and Prince Eric “really teach the world about prejudice and about breaking down barriers and walls between these two worlds.” Also, there’s a singing crab.
On general release from 24 May
Fast X
Yes, it’s the tenth film in the unstoppable petrol head series, which started with indie (独立小公司的) thrillers about undercover cops and illegal street racers and now becomes global science-fiction blockbusters featuring some of Hollywood’s biggest names.

Recently, a new kind of tourism has sprung up in China. Called “special forces style tourism”, this new kind of tourism features visiting multiple scenic interests in a short, intense period, most often on weekends. It is popular among college students, reported China Youth Daily.
Yu Yinghua in Shanghai Lixin University of Accounting and Finance is one of them. The 22-year-old started the “special forces style tourism” in March after she was attracted by such experiences of Xiaohongshu travel bloggers. “Confined (限制) to the school for almost three years due to the pandemic, I’m hungry to take trips in my spare time, ” said Yu.
Her most recent trip was to Shanghai. Starting at 7 am, the 22-year-old visited nine local attractions. “That day, I walked almost 30, 000 steps,” Yu said, “Though it’s a bit tiring, I enjoy the trip as much as day-long trips. It still lets me have a better understanding of the cities I go to. ” Unlike Yu who traveled in nearby cities, Chen Junjun, a doctoral student at Shanghai Advanced Research Institute, CAS, likes to travel far to rid herself of academic stress. In April, the 24-year-old took a two-day trip to Xi’an, Shaanxi. During her trip, she visited all the scenic sites in the city. “Juggling (同时应付) many academic responsibilities, such a trip can bring a splash of color (一抹亮色) to my stressful life!” said Chen.
Even so, the 24-year-old added that such tourism is not suitable for everyone. Chen said that it’s labor-consuming as visitors have to see as many sites as possible in an intensive (集中的) period. To some extent, such trips are not flexible as long-day trips in which you can change your plan as you like. “Thus, abundant energy and a calm mind are necessary for special forces style tourism, ” said Chen.

Chinese American novelist Li Yiyun’s The Book of Goose has won the 2023 Faulkner Award for Fiction. “Li’s The Book of Goose is a dazzling, conventions-defying, nuanced (细腻入微的) novel, ” stated the judging panel for the 2023 Faulkner Award.
First published in September 2022, The Book of Goose is “a gripping, heartbreaking new novel about female friendship, art, and memory, ” which is centered-around a conversation between its two protagonists (主角) — Agnes and Fabienne — on happiness and tells the story of how two French girls succeeded in literature after World War II.
Back in her younger years, Li did not believe she would go on such a long literary journey. After graduating from Peking University in 1966 with a bachelor’s in biological science, she went on to do her master’s in immunology (免疫学) at the University of Iowa, US.
What changed her life track was a community writing workshop in 1997. Without any specific purpose in mind, Li attended the workshop just like how “a housewife goes to a yoga class for fun,” she recalled. After that, Li began to write stories in English although she had no prior writing experience. Her efforts later earned her international fame.
Now Li is the author of several works of fiction, including Must I Go, Where Reasons End, and A Thousand Years of Good Prayers which have won her many awards. Her works have been translated into a dozen of languages, with some even adapted into movies.
Her works touch on thought-provoking topics like humanity, emotion, and cultural divide. She has been dedicated to exploring the different sides of human nature and the conflicts people face when coming from different cultural backgrounds. “I do have an interest in imperfections,” Li said. “I think it’s a matter of character. Some people will say I like the dark side, that is also character. ”

On March 22, 2021, the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution published a new map of undiscovered species. This new effort is of great importance for Walter Jetz, study co-author and professor at Yale University, US. “At the current pace of global environmental change, there is no doubt that many species will die out before we have ever learned about their existence and had the chance to consider their fate,” Jetz said.
Less than a decade ago, Yale researchers mapped out the world’s life. Now Yale researchers have launched a more ambitious project—creating a map where life has yet to be discovered, whose goal is to help support biodiversity discovery and preservation across the globe. According to the researchers, “Conservative estimates suggest only 13 to 18 percent of all living species have been identified, although this number could be as low as 1.5 percent.” In the rapidly changing global environment, researchers are racing against time to discover the remaining species.
“Finding the missing pieces of the Earth’s biodiversity puzzle is therefore crucial to improve biodiversity conservation worldwide, ” explained lead author Mario Moura, a biologist at the Federal University of Paraiba in Brazil. The map of undiscovered life is based on a model estimating where unknown species likely exist today, based on environmental, biological and sociological factors. The most undiscovered vertebrates (脊 椎 动 物) —potentially 25 percent of all future discoveries — are expected to live in Brazil, Colombia, Madagascar and Indonesia. Tropical forests in these countries need protection and we must stop deforestation (滥砍滥伐) rates to discover our biodiversity.
“It is a fascinating project that allows us to better know biodiversity patterns on the planet, ” Moura said. “We hope to motivate citizen scientists and biodiversity enthusiasts about the importance of species discovery and ignite (点燃) discussions and agreements from those responsible for decision-making and conservation planning.”
12. Why is the new map so important?A.It is of environment-friendly importance. |
B.It will prevent most species dying out. |
C.It helps improve biodiversity conservation only in some countries. |
D.It helps support biodiversity discovery and preservation across the globe. |
A.It is a race against time to discover the remaining species. |
B.Only 13 to 18 percent of all living species have been identified. |
C.Many species will go extinct after we have ever learned about them. |
D.The new map is based on a model estimating where the world’s species exist. |
A.Mapping the World’s Life |
B.Mapping Hidden Animals |
C.A New Map of Biodiversity |
D.Mapping Endangered Species |
A.The importance of species discovery. |
B.The impact of deforestation on undiscovered species. |
C.Scientists’ new researches on biodiversity conservation. |
D.The more specific things we can do to help species discovery. |
In recent years, research studies in some top US universities have found that emotional intelligence or EQ (short for Emotional Quotient) can be the key to success.
The concept of EQ was first introduced by psychologist John Mayer in the 1990s and has gained popularity since, especially because it is said to be something that you can try to improve. Someone who has high emotional intelligence can supposedly build strong relationships, achieve their goals and manage their emotions.
When doing research on links between emotion-understanding ability and risk-taking, a 2012 Yale study found emotional intelligence is critical to decision making.
So, if you’re trying to succeed, work on your emotional intelligence and it may just make a difference!
A.These are key areas for success in most jobs! |
B.It’s most likely that, during your career, you will need to work in a team. |
C.Having high emotional intelligence, or EQ, helps you perform well in risk-taking. |
D.Keeping a clear head and avoiding taking risks are important factors for success. |
E.Having high emotional intelligence, or EQ, can help you succeed, especially at work. |
F.Results showed two main reasons why these individuals excelled were both linked to EQ. |
G.They investigated the way that leaders come to a decision when they are under pressure. |

Jenny was the only child in her home. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn’t help weeping sorrowfully when she thought of the scolding from her mother. Wandering aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat, but it was not possible for her, since she had nothing with her. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she sighed and had to leave.
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles?”
“Oh, yes. . . but I don’t have money on me…” she replied.
“That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man. “Come in.”
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently.
“What is it?” asked the man kindly.
“Nothing, actually I was just touched by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped her tears. “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so merciless compared to a stranger!”
