The paddle (桨) cuts through the water as Paralympian athlete Curtis McGrath pushes his canoe (皮划艇) forward. With each strong move, a quick flash of green and yellow Aboriginal art can be seen on the paddle the special design for Australia’s Paralympic team For McGrath, this pattern, called “The Journey”, carries deep meaning. It matches his own story. as he found strength in sports after losing his legs. It seems symbolic of the idea that talking can support recovering.
Many people find it difficult to talk about serious illness or injury. Serious injuries, like McGrath’s, come with a complex range of emotions including anger, denial. and depression. But sharing such emotions and talking about injuries can help people to manage them.
“For me, to have a good support network around me helped me get through those tough times,” McGrath said during an interview in 2018. Understandably, many people with serious injuries find it easier to talk with others going through the same or a similar experience. This can bring a fuller level of understanding that helps people live with their injury on practical and emotional levels.
“Six months after I got hurt, I got to see people who’d been injured doing things that I didn’t think were possible,” says McGrath. Inspired, he tried a few sports before finding his passion for paracanoeing, which he pursued at the Invictus Games in London, 2014. His efforts led him to win multiple gold medals at the Paralympic Games and World Championships.
McGrath has become a champion for people with a disability, and a motivational speaker. And he’s not afraid to openly discuss his suffering. “It’s important to remember that the hard times never last forever,” advises McGrath. “There’s someone out there that’s going through something similar. It’s your responsibility to reach out to talk and to see what you could be.”
4. Why does the author mention “The Journey” on McGrath’s paddle?
A. To explain the rules of Paralympic canoe design.
B. To show his pride as a Paralympian athlete.
C. To highlight the importance of team spirit.
D. To present his personal recovery story.
5. How can sharing emotions about serious injuries benefit people?

C. It helps them gain material support D. It reduces their dependence on others.
6 What does McGrath advise people to do?
A. Take responsibility B. Develop hobbies.
C. Contain emotions. D. Seek connection.

Cities worldwide are witnessing a transformation in urban environments. Wildlife populations in cities are not only surviving but often surpassing those in rural areas. Urban bird populations in cities like Berlin have increased by over 40% in the past two decades. These aren’t just typical pigeons and sparrows, but hawks and owls, and even non-native species that have found urban environments surprisingly pleasant.
The urban heat island effect, often seen as a negative consequence of city development, creates micro climates many species find irresistible. Warmer temperatures extend growing seasons, provide frost-free zones, and create diverse micro habitats within a single city block. Urban environments also offer abundant food resource. Raccoon in Toronto have learned some techniques to open garbage cans. The constant availability of food waste and reduced animal hunters in nature create what ecologists call “urban ecological release.”
Urban wildlife’s boom (繁荣) not only reshapes ecosystems but brings health benefits to humans. Studies show people in areas with higher biodiversity experience lower rates of autoimmune diseases. Mental health benefits are equally impressive: urban residents who encounter wildlife report lower stress and improved mood. Yet this boom isn’t all positive. Urban animals are developing behaviour changes — increased aggression and interrupted migration routes. Disease spread is also critical as populations grow more crowded, threatening humans and animals alike.
Forward-thinking cities are pioneering architectural innovations. Green roofs in Copenhagen aren’t just for beauty — they’re functioning ecosystems supporting plants, insects, and birds, cutting energy costs by up to 30%while providing paths for wildlife to move. Wildlife bridges like Ecoduct de Woeste Hoeve let over 5,000 deer cross highways safely, reducing wildlife-vehicle accidents by 80%.
The future of urban wildlife coexistence is promising, driven by tech advances and public awareness — smart tech enables wildlife monitoring, and innovative designs create shared livable spaces. Emerging biotech may revolutionize management: genetic tools help study urban animal adaptation, aiding threatened species. The key is reimagining cities as integrated ecosystems. As urbanization grows, coexistence lessons grow more valuable. The question isn’t whether we can live alongside urban wildlife — it’s whether we dare to embrace the possibilities this partnership offers.
8. What can we know about urban wildlife from Paragraph 1?
A They have grown in diversity. B. They are mainly from rural areas.
C. They have adapted to urban pollution. D. They tend to avoid human contact.
9. Why is “urban ecological release” mentioned?
A. To present a new ecological concept. B. To stress the constant city development.
C. To show the wildlife-friendliness of cities. D. To explain the reduced ecological harm.
10. What can the urban wildlife boom bring?
A. Lowered rates of disease spread. B. An improved sense of well-being.
C. Impressive migration routes of wildlife. D. Positive behavioural changes in wildlife.
11. What is crucial for urban wildlife coexistence?
A. A slower pace of urbanization. B. Adjustment to existing ecosystems.
C. Advanced biological technologies. D. An adaptive mindset of coexistence.
D
A novel design approach to gardening has been gaining in popularity worldwide. Referred to as matrix planting, this approach aims for nature to do a lot more of the heavy lifting in the garden, and even some of the designing. Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and power tools, it’s based on an elegantly simple principle: to garden more like nature does.
The concept was born when German city planners sought to plant large areas of parkland after World War II in a reproducible way that would need minimal maintenance. Planners created planting mixes that could be used modularly (模块化). In a matrix garden, plants with similar cultural needs are grouped so that they will grow together above and below ground, forming a cooperative ecosystem that conserves water and discourages weeds.
Dutch plantsman and designer Piet Oudolf’s gardens popularized this style, adding artistic flavors to the planting mixes while playing with color and form, including four-season interest and serving the needs of wildlife. Beautiful year-round, they invite you to enjoy the smallest detail, from the sound of grasses in the gentle wind to the sculpture of odd-looking seed heads.
It takes a lot of thought to look this natural. While matrix gardens appear wild, they are carefully planned, with cultural needs the first consideration. Led by the concept of “right plant, right place,” they match plants that enjoy the same soil, sun and weather conditions, and arrange them according to their patterns of growth.
The benefits are substantial for both gardener and planet. With human inputs dramatically reduced, the garden’s ecology can develop well. Established matrix gardens should not need the life support we give most gardens: fertilizer, dividing, regular watering. Compared to traditional garden plots, they increase carbon absorption, reduce stormwater runoff and boost habitat and biodiversity significantly.
12. What does the underlined word “Eschewing” in the first paragraph mean?
A. Running out of. B. Keeping away from.
C. Putting up with. D. Taking advantage of.
13. Why was the idea of matrix planting introduced?
A. To control weeds in large gardens. B. To bring in foreign species of plants.
C. To conserve soil and water resources. D. To develop low-maintenance parkland.
14. Which of the following best describes Piet Oudolf’s gardens?
A. Traditional. B. Odd-looking.
C. Tasteful. D. Well-protected.
15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The future of gardening is WILD. B. Nature treats all lives as EQUALS.
C. Matrix gardens need more CARE. D. Old garden plots work WONDERS.

阅读下面短文,从短文后选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Whether you’re in class or at work, you might ever be told to stop daydreaming and concentrate. It’s easy for your mind to wander if you aren’t interested in what you’re doing or have better things to think about. ___16___ Understanding how to do it can help. Scientists have looked at what puts people off and found ways to help stay in the zone.
___17___ Research by BBC Science Focus magazine revealed that silence is best for concentration and that the soft background music is great! It also found turning off notifications on your phone, or switching it off altogether, removes a major distraction and helps to focus on the task at hand.
Another possible cure for a short attention span (持续时间) is brain training. Psychologists and scientists are increasingly interested in human ability to get down to work and have looked at what people can change inside the head to become concentrated. They have proved making a task more visually demanding takes up more processing power. ___18___ So, keeping your mind busy might be the answer.
There are more practical tips on keeping your mind focused. ___19___ Finding a workspace where you’re not attracted to do other things is also advisable, or chewing some snacks. It’s possible that the movement in your mouth occupies parts of the brain that might otherwise get distracted.
But according to BBC Science Focus magazine, distraction isn’t all bad. ___20___ If you are always so focused that you never get distracted, you’d miss potential changes, such as threats, in the environment.
A. It is vital for survival.
B. Many people struggle with disturbance.
C. Getting rid of noise is one of the most obvious means.
D. Try making a list or timetable of tasks you have to do.
E. A comfortable environment is useful for concentration.
F. Staying focused can be a challenge for people at any stage.
G. That leaves the brain occupied and unable to process irrelevant things.
