Curriculum(课程) During the sessions,our professional instructors cover diverse topics about food and nutrition that are esseniial for teenagers to sustain a healthy lifcstylc.The curriculum mainly includes deveioping a moderate portion and preparing meais for various categories such as athletes,picky eaters,and people with eating disorder. We challenge our teens by making creative recipes with limited tools,or missing ingredients. Our recipes will involve trying a popular dish from a local restaurant and improving it. We will ask our teens to look up the price for the ingredients we are using to calculate the cost of our meals. Al the end of every session,we gather around the community table made from recycied chopsticks,where we enjoy the delicious meal teens wurked so hard to create. Targeted Groups Teen Nights arc suitable for all learning styles from traditional schooling to alternative education for exceptional learners.

B They now call it "Batesian mimicry"-the amazing skill for survival I first saw in the whispering green of the Amazon.I am Henry Walter Bates.My story began not with butterflies,but as the eldest son of a stocking (maker in Leicester.Yet,a boy's passion for collecting insects and an important meeting with Alfred Russel Wallace,Darwin's future co-theorist,sent me toward what he called "the great engine of change"in the tropics. For eleven years,the Amazon was my home,my school,and my proving ground. I faced constant dangers from disease-carrying mosquitoes and snakes to flooding rains.I was struck down by both yellow fever and malaria.My routine was strict: mornings collecting,afternoons reading and preparing my finds.I was usually in bed by nine.My field journals,filled with detailed drawings and notes in dark ink,were my defense against the.dampness and insects.I learned the local languages and customs,for without the crucial guidance of its people,I would have been completely lost in that vast wilderness. It was a time of extraordinary variety.I brought back over 14,000 kinds of insccts -8,000 new to science.But the real wonder was not the count,but a pattern I noticed. It started with a puzzle:why could slow-flving butterflies like the Heliconius escape birds?Later I discovered they were poisonous and bitter-iasting.Then the dceper iruth emerged:harmless Dismorphia had evoived (to copy the bright warning colours of the Heliconius.These mimics(模仿者)，avoided by their natural cncmies, survived to pass on their colours.Ifere was evolution by natural selection,written piainiy on butterfly wings. I published my paper in 1862,three years after Darwin's On the Origin of Species That this "mimicry",discovered in remote jungles,could offer timely field support for his great theory remains my proudest achievement.They say I "wrotc the book"on 第2页共10页 field study.I simply followed my fascination,one find at a time,from my father's Leicester workshop into the heart of nature's grandest design. 4 Who was Henry Walter Bates? A.A stocking maker from Leicestar. B.Darwin's'co-theorist on evolution C.A scientist who studied insects. D.A writer documenting tropical lif. 5.What did Bates consider was essential to his life and work in the Amazon A.Keeping a strict daily schedule. B.Geiting assistance from the locals. C.Collecting and studying samples. D.Staying healthy in the rainforest. 6.What was the pattern Bates discovered? A.Birds avoided eating bitter-tasting insects. B.Slow-flying butterflies escaped birds'attack. C.The bright colours of butterflies signalled danger. D.Harmless species copied the look of poisonous ones. 7.Which of the following best describes Bates?. A.Brave and passionate. B.Strict and humble. C.Ambitious and sociable D.Independent and proud. C The centuries-old practice of spreading crushed limestone (on farmland can improve crop yields(产量)by making soil less acidic(酸性的).'This custom is typically considered a source of greenhouse gas emissions,but new findings suggest "liming"may actually help remove large amounts of CO2 from the atmosphere "Liming can be a carbon source or sink.Practical tests suggest this is a pretty efficient carbon sink,"says Noah Planavsky at Yale University.This could offer new motivation to spread more limestone on the worid's farms-but liming won't have this effect everywhere. Currently,most crushed limestone spread on fields is counted as an emission source because its carbon is released as CO2 when it dissolves (in acidic soil. However,,Tim jesper Sunrhoit aiso at Yaie,argues this accouniing(解样）is incompicte.Soiis are very acidic duc to fertiliser use and fossil-fuei poilution,and other alkaline (minerals in soil will release carbon even without iimestone. He savs added acidity,not liming,is to blame for cmissions. 第3页共10贡 To accurately assess liming's emissions,researchers should compare CO2 release and uptake (with and without liming.Suhrhoff,Planavsky and colleagues studied the Mississippi river basin,calculating the net carbon effect of liming between 1900 and 2015.They used geochemical models and data on soil- acidity changes from fertiliser and liming,and compared results with Mississippi alkalinity measurements.Their new approach showed liming in this region removed about 300 to 400 million tonnes of CO2 instead of generating emissions. Planavsky says liming could be paired with spreading crushed volcanic rocks on farms to remove more C02.Wolfram Buss at the Australian National University warns that what worked in the Mississippi may not work everywherc,as liming can be a net CO2 source in some systems. The next step is to identify regions needing liming most.Planavsky says,"It could promote practices aiding crop yields and removing billions of tonnes of CO2, helping low-income farmers who can't afford optimal liming. 8.What does the underlined word "sink"in paragraph 2 most probably mean? A.A place to wash hands. B.A tool for farming. C.A thing to absorb substances. D.A type of geological rock 9.According to Tim Jesper Suhrhoff,what is the real cause of CO2 emissions in soil? A.Natural alkaline substances. B.Crushed limestonc dissolving. C.Fossil-fuel pollution and fertilizer use.D.Crushed volcanic rock spreading 10.What is the next step for liming research? A.Stopping liming in acidic soil.B.Finding areas most in need of liming C.Reducing costs for all farmers.D.Expanding voleanic rock use globally. 11.What is the main idea of the passage? A.Liming has been increasing greenbouse gases. B.Reducing soil acidity henefits crop production. C.Global agriculture should universally adopt liming. D.New studies indicate liming's potential CO2 absorption D Each year,more than 1.2 billion new smarlphones are produccd worldwide.This process consumes vast amounts of energy and natural resources,while also generating huge quantities of electronic waste,as people often replace perfectly fimnctional devices every few years.Io address this challenge,researchers have proposed a new approach repurposing old phones into small-scale data ceniers for practicul use. "innovation often begins not with something new,but with a new way of thinking about the old,"said Huber,an associate professor at MIT.The research team showed that outdated smartphones can be effectively transformed into tiny data centers capable of processing and storing data for real-world applications.They also 第4页共10页 discovered that building such a system is surprisingly inexpensive -about 8 euros per device -making it a highly offordable solution. In their experiment,the scientists carefully removed the batteries to avoid chemical leakage and connected four old phones using 3D-printed cases.The system was powered externally and tested in practical environments.One successful trial involved underwater sea life monitoring,where the device automatically-recorded and analyzed marine species -a task that usually requires divers.With this new device, the entire process could be done automatically underwater. These repurposed devices hold promise for a'wide range of smart city applications.For instance,they could be installed()at bus stops to monitor passenger flow and help urban planners optimize transportation schedules and routes, making public transport run more smoothly and reducing waiting time for passengers. This method not only reduces e-waste but also supports sustainable digital solutions for modern communities. "This is a smart,green rethink of our throwaway tech culture.Sustainability is not only about protecting the future -it is about reimagining the present,where yesterday's devices become tomorrow's opportunities,"added Ulrich,an Associate Professor of Software Engineering.With modest investment and creative thinking, outdated technology can serve new purposes,contributing to a greener digital society while helping to solve the growing problem of electronic waste. 12.What is a feature of the new approach mentioned? A.It is cost-effective. B.It is data-based. C.It is business-driven.D.It is skill-intensive 13.What does the underwater trial show? A.The risks of underwater tasks B.The necessity of imovative tools. C.The challenges of ocean research. D.The practicality of the new device. 14.What does the underlined word "optimize"in paragraph 4 mean. A.Improve B.Observe C.Cancel D.Expand. 15.Which can be a suitable title for the texl? A.Electronic Engineering:An Eco-Digital Guide B.Repurposing Old Phones:A Green Solution C.The Problem of Global Smartpnone Waste D.The Sustainability of Smarl Cily Development 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读"下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最住选项。逃项 中有两项为多余选项。 Why we shouid exercise as a family 第5页共10页 We've all heard the saying "The family that plays together stays together."

It was a hummingbird ()desperately trying to escape.She was covered in spider- webs (and was barely able to move her wings.She stopped her struggle the instant I picked her up. With the bird in my cupped hand,I looked around to see how she had gotten in. The broken window glass was the likely answer.I stuffed a piece of cloth into the hole and took her outside,closing the door securely behind me. When I opened my hand,the bird did not fly away;she sat looking at me with her bright eyes.I removed the sticky spider-webs that covered her head and wings. Still,she made no attempt to fly.Perhaps she had been struggling against the window too long and was too tired?Or too thirsty? As I carried her up the blackberry-lined path toward my car where I kept a water bottle,she began to move.I stopped,and she soon took wing but did not immediately fly away. Hovering ()she approached within six inches of my face.For a very long. 第9页共10页 moment,this tiny creature looked into my eyes,turning her head from side to side. Then she flew quickly out of sight. During the cookout,1 told my hosts about the hummingbird incident.They promised to fix the window.As I was departing,my friends walked me to my car.I was standing by the car when a hummingbird flew to the center of our group and began hovering.She turned from person to person until she came to me.She again looked directly into my eyes,then let out a squeaking call and was gone.For a moment, all were speechless.Then someone said,"She must have come to say goodbye." 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； A few weeks later,I went to the farm again I was just about to leave when the hummingbird appeared
