B Sandesh Kadur, a National Geographic Explorer, has spent 25 years documenting(记录)rare wildlife, transforming his childhood passion into a mission to protect Earth's fragile(脆弱的) ecosystems. When he was young, Kadur was fascinated by Jim Corbett's tales of big cats. Inspired, he once cycled into the jungle with a friend to observe big cats at a watering hole. At night, they really saw a big cat. Bathed in moonlight. he realized his life's goal: to capture and share nature's wonders At 12, he borrowed his father's camera — a "magic box" that froze time. His father, an entomologist(昆虫学家). got him looking at the small things So he began intentionally focusing his lens on small insects, trying to understand what he was looking at. He would develop the camera film weeks later, annotating(注释)the settings and reattempting the shots. As he grew older, his love for nature, however, conflicted with academics. Failing high school, he moved to Brownsville, Texas to study hotel management — a choice that unexpectedly refueled his love for storytelling. In Brownsville, Kadur explored Mexico's cloud forests and landed a job as a jungle tour guide. There, he met filmmaker John Bax, who introduced him to documentary work. When they embarked on a documentary project together, Bax withdrew from it. Kadur then 19 and untrained in film, pursued the project on his own He spent three years filming India's Western Ghats, capturing species like the "smoke cat" for the first time. His debut film, Sahyadris: Mountains of the Monsoon, brought the Western Ghats' biodiversity into attention, aiding its 2012 UNESCO World Heritage status. Through visual storytelling, Kadur offers his audiences glimpses into a rarely - seen natural world, urging them to protect its delicate inhabitants. "Visual art has conveyed stories for millennia. Now we're doing that with technology, and it will continue to advance." said Kadur, "I think the impact of storytelling can last a lifetime. It can last generations." 24. What led Kadur into nature: A. Fever for big cats.  B. Love for adventure. C. Curiosity about filming.  D. Fascination with Jim's tales 25. What was his father's influence on him? A. Teaching him photography skills. B. Introducing him to documentary work. C. Helping him regain love for storytelling. D. Arousing his curiosity about scientific details. 26. What is Kadur's opinion about visual storytelling? A. It well entertains audiences. B. It serves as a bridge for nature. C. Its value lies in expression skills. D. Its impact depends on technology. 27. Which of the following words can best describe Kadur? A. Passionate and devoted. B. Talented and anibitious. C. Independent and committed. D. Responsible and generous. C The sun is setting, brightening your kids' faces as they play in the waves You reach for your phone for this perfect moment. But before you do, here's a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think Taking too many pictures could actually harm the brain's ability to keep memories, says Elizabeth Loftus, a psychology professor at the University of California, Irvine. So we get the photo but kind of lose the memory. Photography "outsources" memories. It works in two ways: We either shake off the responsibility of remembering moments when taking pictures. or we're so distracted (分散注意力的) by the process that we miss the moment altogether. The first explanation is the loss of memory. People know that their camera is recording that moment, so they don't try to remember. Similarly, if you write down someone's phone number, you're less likely to remember it offhand because your brain tells you there's just no need. That's all well and good — until that piece of paper goes missing. The other is distraction. We're distracted by the process of taking a photo — how we hold our phone, composing the photo. such as smiling faces, the background to our liking and clear image, all of which uses up our attention that could otherwise help us memorize However, taking photos can benefit memory — when done mindfully. While taking a photo may be distracting, the act of preparation by focusing on visual (视觉的) details around has some upsides. When people take the time to zoom in (拉近镜头) on specific things, memories become strengthened. Another benefit is that we recall moments more accurately (准确的) with the photos. Memory has been reshaped with the help of new information and new experiences. Thus, photos or videos help us recall moments as if they really happened. Memories die away without a visual record backing them up. Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further. 28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To show the interest in taking photos. B. To make us think of similar experience. C. To introduce readers to the topic. D. To call on readers not to take photos. 29 Why does photography "outsource" memories? A. People depend more on photos to remember than their brains. B. Photos are more detailed and attractive than memories. C. Taking photos is helpful for us to memorize what we like most. D. Many sources influence people's memories during photo - taking. 30 What may likely be discussed next? A. When distraction is most likely to happen B. How to use photo - taking to memorize better. C. How to stay focused while taking photos. D. Situations when taking photos is better. 31. What is the text mainly about? A. We should remember the moment and take photos properly B. Photography does help us memorize the moment C. The fewer photos we take, the better we will remember D. Taking pictures could actually harm the brain's ability to keep memories D Oleg Kononenko has become the first human to achieve 1,000 days of spaceflight over a 16 - year career visiting and living on the International Space Station (ISS). The achievement comes on his fifth flight to space and during his third term as the commander of the ISS. He will become one of the most valuable human biology specimens (生物标本) in the world. Given that both the Artemis Accords and the International Lunar Research Station initiative (倡议) aim to send men and women on longer and longer missions to space, including semi - permanent (半永久的) habitation of the moon and eventually a journey to Mars, scientists need to understand what long - term presence in outer space will do to the human body. To that end, Kononenko, who has routinely spent many hundreds of continuous days and even years in low - Earth orbit. will be providing data points “days, months and years,” after his return, says Emmanuel Urquieta. the former chief medical officer of the NASA - funded Translational Research Institute for Space Health (TRISH), led by Baylor College of Medicine. Urquieta explains that medicine in space is a growing field. and that the effects of the space environment on eye health. bone loss, and blood flow are not well understood, nor are the effects of long - term radiation exposure (辐射暴露) and space sickness. “I'm sure that there will be a lot of research coming up in the future when he comes back to Earth and I'm sure that there will be a very long follow - up with him. you know, days, months, and years after, to try really to understand these very unique data points,” Urquieta says. “When you project the data that we have from six - month missions to 900 days, there's still a huge gap of data that we need to address so that we can safely say that. ‘OK, we have enough data that we can confidently say that we're able to send someone to Mars and make sure that that person is going to come back as healthy as he or she left Earth.’” 32. What do we know about Kononenko? A. He contributed to the establishment of the ISS. B. He discovered a valuable biology specimen. C. He set a record for the most time in space. D. He completed three space flights in 16 years. 33. What do the underlined words “To that end” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. To improve life support systems in space. B. To explore the potential for lunar habitation. C. To select astronauts for a journey to Mars. D. To study the effects of living in space. 34. What can be concluded about Kononenko from the last two paragraphs? A. His long - term data will be crucial. B. He will conduct new space missions. C. He will inspire confidence in others. D. His career will be fruitful. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Increased Focuses on Spaceflight Safety Concerns B. New Opportunities for Space Health Studies C. Future Possibilities for Space Travel D.
