Lots of new and amazing things are going on in China’s Tiangong Space Station. Let’s read four interesting stories about it.
a
Shenzhou-19 astronauts did China’s first fruit fly experiment in the Tiangong Space Station. Scientists choose fruit flies because they share similar genes (基因) with humans. They grow fast, so scientists can get clear study results in a short time. The experiment helps learn how space influences living things. It helps people know more about long-term space life for humans.
b
China’s space station has a new hot-air oven. Astronauts can now cook delicious food like chicken wings. In the past, space food was only ready-to-eat. The oven uses special technology to deal with smoke and oil. It keeps the space station safe and clean. With over 190 kinds of food, astronauts have healthy and tasty meals in space.
c
Special mice went to the Tiangong Space Station. It was China’s first space experiment on small mammals (哺乳动物). At first, there were 300 mice. After some strict tests, only 48 mice were kept. Then they took the final test. At last, two male mice and two female mice were chosen. Astronauts studied how space affected their bodies and genes. The study helped keep astronauts safe during long space trips.
d
Astronauts from Shenzhou-19 tested a new robot that can check pipes (管道) in the Chinese space station for the first time in the world. The space station has many pipes, but checking them is difficult and dangerous for astronauts. The smart robot can change its body size to go through different pipes. It is safe and can find problems easily. This great success shows China’s fast development in space technology.
26. Why do scientists choose fruit flies for the experiment?
A. They can live long in space.
B. They are similar to humans in genes.
C. They help people know more about space.
27. What can astronauts do with the hot-air oven?
A. Deal with smoke and oil. B. Cook delicious food. C. Enjoy ready-to-eat meals.
28. How did the scientists choose the mice for the space experiments?
A. Picked 4 from 300 directly. B. Kept 48 first, then chose 4. C. Chose males first, then females.
29. According to passage d, what is difficult and dangerous for astronauts?
A. Checking the pipes. B. Testing the pipe robots. C. Going through different pipes.
30. What do the four passages mainly talk about?
A. China’s future space plans.
B. The importance of space technology.

Rainforests are home to many kinds of plants, birds and animals. Can you believe that a small group of bushes in the Amazon may have more types of ants than all of Britain? About 480 kinds of trees can be found in just 10,000 square meters of rainforest.
Rainforests are the “lungs of the Earth”. They breathe in CO2 and breathe out O2 for all living things. They have their own ways to stay alive—tall trees form a top layer of leaves and branches, protecting themselves, small plants and animals from heavy rain, strong heat and strong winds.
Surprisingly, the trees grow in a special way. Although their leaves and branches are close to each other, they never really touch those of other trees. Scientists think this can help stop tree illnesses from spreading and make it difficult for leaf-eating insects to live. To live in the forest, animals have to climb, jump or fly across these spaces.
Different from what we see in films, the ground of the rainforest is not full of thick leaves and bushes. It is quite clear. Dead leaves turn into food for trees and other living things there.
Rainforests can make 75% of their own rain. Every year, the rain is usually about 2032 mm, and in some places, it can be as much as 10922 mm. Such heavy rain can make small rivers rise about 3 to 6 meters in only two hours. The wet air in rainforests also helps make rain clouds for other countries that need rain.
31. Why are rainforests called the “lungs of the Earth”?
A. Because they have many tall trees.
B. Because they give homes to many animals.
C. Because they take in CO2 and make O2 for the world.
32. How does the top layer of tall trees help the rainforest?
A. It stops trees from touching each other.
B. It protects living things there from bad weather.
C. It provides enough living space for leaf-eating insects.
33. Why don’t the branches and leaves of different trees touch each other?
A. To help animals jump across the spaces.
B. To make leaf-eating insects live more easily.
C. To help stop tree illnesses and harmful insects.
34. What can we learn about rainforests in the last paragraph?
A. They need much rain from other places.
B. The wet air from them helps other countries.
C. Heavy rain in rainforests is bad for small rivers.
35. Which part of the newspaper is this text taken from?
A. Nature. B. Life. C. Science.
【答案】31. C 32. B 33. C 34. B 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇关于雨林的科普说明文。文章主要介绍了雨林中丰富的生物多样性、它们作为“地球之肺”的重要作用、树木独特的生长方式、雨林地面的真实状况,以及雨林对全球降雨和气候的调节功能。
【31题详解】
根据第二段中“Rainforests are the ‘lungs of the Earth’. They breathe in CO2 and breathe out O2 for all living things.”可知,雨林被称为地球之肺是因为它们能吸收二氧化碳并制造氧气。
【32题详解】
根据第二段中“tall trees form a top layer of leaves and branches, protecting themselves, small plants and animals from heavy rain, strong heat and strong winds.”可知,顶层的树木枝叶可以保护那里的生物免受恶劣天气的伤害。
【33题详解】
根据第三段中“Scientists think this can help stop tree illnesses from spreading and make it difficult for leaf-eating insects to live.”可知,不同树木的枝叶互不触碰是为了防止疾病传播和抵御害虫。
【34题详解】
根据最后一段中“The wet air in rainforests also helps make rain clouds for other countries that need rain.”可知,雨林产生的湿润空气还能为那些需要降雨的其他国家形成雨云。
【35题详解】
通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了雨林的自然环境、生态系统以及其对地球气候的影响,属于自然科学的范畴。因此,这篇文章最可能出现在报纸的“自然(Nature)”版块。
B卷(共50分)
一、短文填空。(共10小题;每小题1分,计10分)
短文填空。从下面方框中选出10个单词,将其正确形式填入短文。(每词限用一次)
blind boring build head important opposite possible quick stress train we with
Many people around the world share the same trouble: a poor sense of direction. Sue from the U.K. can hardly travel ____36____ her navigation (导航) app, but she still often ends up going in the wrong direction. Sally from Australia once had great difficulty using paper maps — she had to turn them upside down when ____37____ south. So giving directions at high speed was nearly ____38____. Her husband would always do the ____39____ of what she said, and he was never wrong. Khamboj from India can’t tell east from west without a compass, and Ellen Chiang from the U.S.A. still misses turns or turns too early even with GPS, making driving a(n) ____40____ experience. Like them, many feel helpless when they get lost.
However, U.S. psychologist Margaret Tarampi says our sense of direction isn’t fixed at birth — it can ____41____. The first step is to pay more attention to our environment. Natural landmarks, such as a mountain that marks the north or the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, are great compasses.
While over-depending on GPS can harm our navigational skills, Tarampi doesn’t suggest giving it up. Instead of ____42____ following the road signs, we should learn to match the map with real landmarks and look up from our screens more often. Trying different ways to the same place also allows us ____43____ maps in our mind and connect different locations.
We can practice these skills in our daily lives, learn to use natural landmarks, and avoid over-depending on GPS. ____44____, we should “get out, get lost and go exploring.” The best way to improve our sense of direction is through practice. Getting lost isn’t a mistake; it’s just another way to find ____45____ and learn to navigate the world better.
【答案】36. without
37. heading
38. impossible
39. opposite
40. stressful
41. be trained
42. blindly
43. to build
44. Most importantly
45. ourselves
【解析】
【导语】本文指出方向感差是许多人共有的困扰,但心理学家认为方向感并非天生固定,可以通过有意识的训练和摆脱对GPS的过度依赖来改善。
【36题详解】
句意:来自英国的Sue几乎没有导航应用程序就寸步难行。根据前文“a poor sense of direction”以及空前的“hardly”可知,她方向感很差,没有导航就很难出行,且hardly已含否定含义,应用without表示“没有”,符合语境。
【37题详解】
句意:来自澳大利亚的Sally曾经在使用纸质地图时遇到很大困难——当她朝南走时,她不得不把地图倒过来看。根据When引导的时间状语从句省略结构可知,此处应填现在分词,主语she与head为主谓关系。heading意为“朝……方向行进”,是head的现在分词,符合语境。
【38题详解】
句意:因此快速给出方向指示几乎是不可能的。根据前文Sally连地图都要倒着看可知,她方向感极差,快速指路对她来说是不可能完成的事。impossible是possible反义词,意为“不可能的”。
【39题详解】
句意:她丈夫总是做她说的相反方向的事(朝相反方向走),而且他从未错过。根据前文说Sally方向感很差,以及后文“and he was never wrong”可知,丈夫没错过,应该是丈夫朝Sally指的相反方向走。opposite在此作名词,意为“相反”。
【40题详解】
句意:来自美国的Ellen Chiang即使在有GPS的情况下,仍然会错过转弯或过早转弯,这让开车成为一次充满压力的经历。根据空前描述Ellen即使有GPS仍错过转弯或过早转弯可知,这样的驾驶体验让人非常紧张。修饰名词experience需用形容词,stress加后缀-ful,意为“充满压力的”,符合语境。
【41题详解】
句意:我们的方向感并非天生固定——它可以被训练。根据前文“isn’t fixed at birth”及破折号后的转折可知,方向感是可以通过后天培养的。train意为“训练”,主语it与train是被动关系,前有情态动词be用原形,应填be trained构成被动语态。
【42题详解】
句意:与其盲目地跟随路标,我们应该学会把地图和真实地标联系起来。根据后文建议“look up from our screens more often”可知,不能只是低头盲目跟着导航走。修饰动词,应用副词blindly,意为“盲目地”。
【43题详解】
句意:尝试不同的路线去同一个地方也允许我们在脑海中构建地图。根据固定搭配allow sb. to do sth.可知,此处应用不定式作宾补,to build意为“建立,构建”。
【44题详解】
句意:最重要的是,我们应该“走出去,迷路,去探索。”根据句意,此处在引出一个最重要、最核心的建议,用副词短语作评注性状语修饰整个句子。Most importantly意为“最重要的是”,用于引出最重要的观点。副词置于句首,大写首字母。
【45题详解】
句意:迷路不是一种错误,它只是找到自我、更好地认知这个世界的另一种方式。此处需要动词find的宾语,用反身代词表示找到自我。ourselves是we的反身代词,符合语境。
二、补全短文。根据短文内容,从短文后的A~F选项中,选出5个适当的选项补全短文。(共5小题;每小题1分,计5分)
Recently, a high school Chinese teacher raised an interesting question for her students: “If you had to pick one word to prove you are not an AI, what would it be?” ____46____
The students came up with plenty of warm and meaningful answers. A student chose the word “Mom”, for AI has no family, no mother, and can never experience the warm family bonds that humans own. Another student selected “Worry”. ____47____ Some students picked “Slow” or “Clumsy”, which shows that humans are willing to slow down to enjoy beautiful moments — like a beautiful sunset or gentle sunlight — even if this act seems inefficient to machines.
Words including “Regret”, “Pain” and “Love” were also widely chosen by the students. ____48____ AI is able to learn knowledge and finish tasks quickly, yet it can never truly feel joy or sadness. It cannot cry when getting hurt, nor can it laugh from the bottom of its heart.
____49____ Instead, all these answers show one thing: human warmth is the most important. Human beings have imperfections, rich and deep emotions, as well as special emotional bonds with people around us. These are the valuable parts of being human that no machine can ever copy. ____50____ Every tiny true feeling and every truthful relationship keeps us from being cold, emotionless machines, and this is the heart of being a real person.
A. These feelings are also expressed by AI.
B. There is no standard correct answer to this question.
C. These are all real feelings that come from life experiences.
D. They make us alive, special and truly human in this modern world.
E. It made everyone think about what makes humans special in the AI age.
F. Because AI will never understand nervous feeling like waiting for exam results.
【答案】46. E 47. F 48. C 49. B 50. D
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了一位高中语文老师向学生提出“选一个词证明自己不是人工智能”的问题,学生们给出了诸如“Mom”“Worry”等丰富答案,不同答案体现了人类拥有家庭情感、懂得享受生活、有真实情感等特点,而这些是人工智能无法具备的,进而表明人类的温暖、不完美、丰富情感以及特殊情感联系是作为真实人类的核心,是机器无法复制的。
【46题详解】
第一段“Recently, a high school Chinese teacher raised an interesting question for her students: “If you had to pick one word to prove you are not an AI, what would it be?”提到高中语文老师提出了一个有趣问题“如果必须选一个词证明自己不是AI,会选什么”,E选项“It made everyone think about what makes humans special in the AI age.”(它让每个人思考在人工智能时代是什么让人类与众不同),承接上文老师提出的问题,说明这个问题引发的思考,所以选E。
【47题详解】
第二段“Another student selected “Worry”提到另一个学生选择了“Worry”,F选项“Because AI will never understand nervous feeling like waiting for exam results.”(因为人工智能永远不会理解像等待考试结果时的紧张感觉),解释了选择“Worry”的原因,即AI不理解类似等待考试结果时的那种紧张情绪,所以选F。
【48题详解】
第三段“Words including “Regret”, “Pain” and “Love” were also widely chosen by the students.”提到“Regret”“Pain”和“Love”等词也被学生广泛选择,C选项“These are all real feelings that come from life experiences.”(这些都是来自生活经历的真实感受),对这些被选择的词进行总结,表明它们是源于生活经历的真实情感,所以选C。
【49题详解】
第四段“Instead, all these answers show one thing: human warmth is the most important.”提到“相反,所有这些答案都表明一件事:人类的温暖是最重要的”,B选项“There is no standard correct answer to this question.”(这个问题没有标准的正确答案),与后文“没有标准答案,但体现了人类温暖”相呼应,所以选B。
【50题详解】
第四段“These are the valuable parts of being human that no machine can ever copy.”阐述了人类的不完美、丰富的情感以及特殊的情感纽带是人类有价值的部分,D选项“They make us alive, special and truly human in this modern world.”(它们使我们在这个现代世界中充满活力、与众不同且真正成为人类),进一步说明这些人类独有的特质的重要性,所以选D。
三、阅读表达。(共10小题;计20分)
A. 完成图表(共5小题;每小题2分,计10分)
根据短文内容,完成图表中所缺信息(不超过三个词)。
In the UK, thousands of old and unwanted musical instruments are thrown away every year. Most of them are sent to landfills, which causes serious environmental pollution and a huge waste of resources. Many instruments are still working well, but people throw them away simply because they are no longer needed. Repairing these instruments requires special skills, and many people cannot afford to learn such skills, so few people want to fix them. However, some warm-hearted projects are trying to change this situation and save these instruments.
It is reported that more than 10,000 musical instruments are thrown away in Britain every year. Luckily, more organizations have realized the problem and started to take action. They collect old instruments from families, schools and communities, and then ask skilled workers to repair and clean them. Some groups work hard to reduce musical waste and help reuse old instruments. The Olympias Music Foundation provides free high-quality music lessons for children from poor families. It also started the Recycled Orchestra Project, which collects broken instruments, repairs them carefully and passes them on to young music lovers.
Since repairing instruments requires professional skills, these skills don’t come cheap. As a solution, experienced instrument makers are invited to teach music teachers. With special repair tools and teaching videos, teachers can now deal with some simple problems by themselves. This helps save more instruments from being thrown away and also cuts down the cost of repair.
These meaningful activities not only protect the environment by reducing waste but also help more teenagers develop an interest in music. Many students who had no chance to touch instruments before can now learn and play music happily. Even though many schools have limited budgets for art programs, these projects offer great support for music education.
Today, more and more old instruments are returning to life and making beautiful sounds again. They show us that nothing is useless if we treat it with care, and that music can light up the life of every child who loves it.

B. 根据短文内容,按要求回答问题。(共5小题;每小题2分,计10分)
In a village near a desert lived a young and successful businessman, named James. Although he had a lot, he often felt unhappy due to the endless challenges he faced.
One day, a wise old man came to the village with 100 camels. It’s said he could solve any problem. James went to see him and said, “I’m very unhappy with my life. I always have business worries, family troubles and health problems. Please tell me how to make them disappear.”
The old man smiled and said, “I’ll give you an answer tomorrow morning. But first, can you do a small thing for me?” James agreed. The old man asked him to take care of the 100 camels for the night, making sure that they all sat down and rested before he could go to sleep.
The next morning, the old man asked James how his night went. James said sadly, “I didn’t sleep at all. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get all the camels to sit together. Even if I managed to get some camels to sit on one side, a few others would stand on the other side.”
“That’s true. As I noticed last night, some camels sat down on their own, while others required some effort, and yet many camels did not sit even after much effort. If you had come back later, you would have seen that some of the camels, even though they didn’t sit at first, finally sat down on their own,” the old man said.
James nodded.
The old man continued, “Problems are just like camels—some problems get solved by themselves, some get solved when you put in some effort, and some do not get solved even after you have tried your best. Leave such problems to time. At the right time, these problems themselves will come to an end.”
James felt a sense of understanding. It completely changed the way he saw life’s challenges.

【答案】56. Because he faced endless challenges.
57. He tried hard to get all the camels to sit together, but he failed.
58. They finally sat down on their own later.
59. Some get solved by themselves, some get solved with effort, and some can’t be solved even after trying one’s best.
60. He would leave unsolvable problems to time and stop worrying too much about them.

Lots of new and amazing things are going on in China’s Tiangong Space Station. Let’s read four interesting stories about it.
a
Shenzhou-19 astronauts did China’s first fruit fly experiment in the Tiangong Space Station. Scientists choose fruit flies because they share similar genes (基因) with humans. They grow fast, so scientists can get clear study results in a short time. The experiment helps learn how space influences living things. It helps people know more about long-term space life for humans.
b
China’s space station has a new hot-air oven. Astronauts can now cook delicious food like chicken wings. In the past, space food was only ready-to-eat. The oven uses special technology to deal with smoke and oil. It keeps the space station safe and clean. With over 190 kinds of food, astronauts have healthy and tasty meals in space.
c
Special mice went to the Tiangong Space Station. It was China’s first space experiment on small mammals (哺乳动物). At first, there were 300 mice. After some strict tests, only 48 mice were kept. Then they took the final test. At last, two male mice and two female mice were chosen. Astronauts studied how space affected their bodies and genes. The study helped keep astronauts safe during long space trips.
d
Astronauts from Shenzhou-19 tested a new robot that can check pipes (管道) in the Chinese space station for the first time in the world. The space station has many pipes, but checking them is difficult and dangerous for astronauts. The smart robot can change its body size to go through different pipes. It is safe and can find problems easily. This great success shows China’s fast development in space technology.
26. Why do scientists choose fruit flies for the experiment?
A. They can live long in space.
B. They are similar to humans in genes.
C. They help people know more about space.
27. What can astronauts do with the hot-air oven?
A. Deal with smoke and oil. B. Cook delicious food. C. Enjoy ready-to-eat meals.
28. How did the scientists choose the mice for the space experiments?
A. Picked 4 from 300 directly. B. Kept 48 first, then chose 4. C. Chose males first, then females.
29. According to passage d, what is difficult and dangerous for astronauts?
A. Checking the pipes. B. Testing the pipe robots. C. Going through different pipes.
30. What do the four passages mainly talk about?
A. China’s future space plans.
B. The importance of space technology.
C. Chinese achievements in space technology.
C
Rainforests are home to many kinds of plants, birds and animals. Can you believe that a small group of bushes in the Amazon may have more types of ants than all of Britain? About 480 kinds of trees can be found in just 10,000 square meters of rainforest.
Rainforests are the “lungs of the Earth”. They breathe in CO2 and breathe out O2 for all living things. They have their own ways to stay alive—tall trees form a top layer of leaves and branches, protecting themselves, small plants and animals from heavy rain, strong heat and strong winds.
Surprisingly, the trees grow in a special way. Although their leaves and branches are close to each other, they never really touch those of other trees. Scientists think this can help stop tree illnesses from spreading and make it difficult for leaf-eating insects to live. To live in the forest, animals have to climb, jump or fly across these spaces.
Different from what we see in films, the ground of the rainforest is not full of thick leaves and bushes. It is quite clear. Dead leaves turn into food for trees and other living things there.
Rainforests can make 75% of their own rain. Every year, the rain is usually about 2032 mm, and in some places, it can be as much as 10922 mm. Such heavy rain can make small rivers rise about 3 to 6 meters in only two hours. The wet air in rainforests also helps make rain clouds for other countries that need rain.
31. Why are rainforests called the “lungs of the Earth”?
A. Because they have many tall trees.
B. Because they give homes to many animals.
C. Because they take in CO2 and make O2 for the world.
32. How does the top layer of tall trees help the rainforest?
A. It stops trees from touching each other.
B. It protects living things there from bad weather.
C. It provides enough living space for leaf-eating insects.
33. Why don’t the branches and leaves of different trees touch each other?
A. To help animals jump across the spaces.
B. To make leaf-eating insects live more easily.
C. To help stop tree illnesses and harmful insects.
34. What can we learn about rainforests in the last paragraph?
A. They need much rain from other places.
B. The wet air from them helps other countries.
C. Heavy rain in rainforests is bad for small rivers.
35. Which part of the newspaper is this text taken from?
A. Nature. B. Life. C. Science.

Many people around the world share the same trouble: a poor sense of direction. Sue from the U.K. can hardly travel ____36____ her navigation (导航) app, but she still often ends up going in the wrong direction. Sally from Australia once had great difficulty using paper maps — she had to turn them upside down when ____37____ south. So giving directions at high speed was nearly ____38____. Her husband would always do the ____39____ of what she said, and he was never wrong. Khamboj from India can’t tell east from west without a compass, and Ellen Chiang from the U.S.A. still misses turns or turns too early even with GPS, making driving a(n) ____40____ experience. Like them, many feel helpless when they get lost.
However, U.S. psychologist Margaret Tarampi says our sense of direction isn’t fixed at birth — it can ____41____. The first step is to pay more attention to our environment. Natural landmarks, such as a mountain that marks the north or the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, are great compasses.
While over-depending on GPS can harm our navigational skills, Tarampi doesn’t suggest giving it up. Instead of ____42____ following the road signs, we should learn to match the map with real landmarks and look up from our screens more often. Trying different ways to the same place also allows us ____43____ maps in our mind and connect different locations.
We can practice these skills in our daily lives, learn to use natural landmarks, and avoid over-depending on GPS. ____44____, we should “get out, get lost and go exploring.” The best way to improve our sense of direction is through practice. Getting lost isn’t a mistake; it’s just another way to find ____45____ and learn to navigate the world better.
二、补全短文。根据短文内容,从短文后的A~F选项中,选出5个适当的选项补全短文。(共5小题;每小题1分,计5分)
Recently, a high school Chinese teacher raised an interesting question for her students: “If you had to pick one word to prove you are not an AI, what would it be?” ____46____
The students came up with plenty of warm and meaningful answers. A student chose the word “Mom”, for AI has no family, no mother, and can never experience the warm family bonds that humans own. Another student selected “Worry”. ____47____ Some students picked “Slow” or “Clumsy”, which shows that humans are willing to slow down to enjoy beautiful moments — like a beautiful sunset or gentle sunlight — even if this act seems inefficient to machines.
Words including “Regret”, “Pain” and “Love” were also widely chosen by the students. ____48____ AI is able to learn knowledge and finish tasks quickly, yet it can never truly feel joy or sadness. It cannot cry when getting hurt, nor can it laugh from the bottom of its heart.
____49____ Instead, all these answers show one thing: human warmth is the most important. Human beings have imperfections, rich and deep emotions, as well as special emotional bonds with people around us. These are the valuable parts of being human that no machine can ever copy. ____50____ Every tiny true feeling and every truthful relationship keeps us from being cold, emotionless machines, and this is the heart of being a real person.
A. These feelings are also expressed by AI.
B. There is no standard correct answer to this question.
C. These are all real feelings that come from life experiences.
D. They make us alive, special and truly human in this modern world.
E. It made everyone think about what makes humans special in the AI age.
F. Because AI will never understand nervous feeling like waiting for exam results.

In the UK, thousands of old and unwanted musical instruments are thrown away every year. Most of them are sent to landfills, which causes serious environmental pollution and a huge waste of resources. Many instruments are still working well, but people throw them away simply because they are no longer needed. Repairing these instruments requires special skills, and many people cannot afford to learn such skills, so few people want to fix them. However, some warm-hearted projects are trying to change this situation and save these instruments.
It is reported that more than 10,000 musical instruments are thrown away in Britain every year. Luckily, more organizations have realized the problem and started to take action. They collect old instruments from families, schools and communities, and then ask skilled workers to repair and clean them. Some groups work hard to reduce musical waste and help reuse old instruments. The Olympias Music Foundation provides free high-quality music lessons for children from poor families. It also started the Recycled Orchestra Project, which collects broken instruments, repairs them carefully and passes them on to young music lovers.
Since repairing instruments requires professional skills, these skills don’t come cheap. As a solution, experienced instrument makers are invited to teach music teachers. With special repair tools and teaching videos, teachers can now deal with some simple problems by themselves. This helps save more instruments from being thrown away and also cuts down the cost of repair.
These meaningful activities not only protect the environment by reducing waste but also help more teenagers develop an interest in music. Many students who had no chance to touch instruments before can now learn and play music happily. Even though many schools have limited budgets for art programs, these projects offer great support for music education.
Today, more and more old instruments are returning to life and making beautiful sounds again. They show us that nothing is useless if we treat it with care, and that music can light up the life of every child who loves it.

In a village near a desert lived a young and successful businessman, named James. Although he had a lot, he often felt unhappy due to the endless challenges he faced.
One day, a wise old man came to the village with 100 camels. It’s said he could solve any problem. James went to see him and said, “I’m very unhappy with my life. I always have business worries, family troubles and health problems. Please tell me how to make them disappear.”
The old man smiled and said, “I’ll give you an answer tomorrow morning. But first, can you do a small thing for me?” James agreed. The old man asked him to take care of the 100 camels for the night, making sure that they all sat down and rested before he could go to sleep.
The next morning, the old man asked James how his night went. James said sadly, “I didn’t sleep at all. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get all the camels to sit together. Even if I managed to get some camels to sit on one side, a few others would stand on the other side.”
“That’s true. As I noticed last night, some camels sat down on their own, while others required some effort, and yet many camels did not sit even after much effort. If you had come back later, you would have seen that some of the camels, even though they didn’t sit at first, finally sat down on their own,” the old man said.
James nodded.
The old man continued, “Problems are just like camels—some problems get solved by themselves, some get solved when you put in some effort, and some do not get solved even after you have tried your best. Leave such problems to time. At the right time, these problems themselves will come to an end.”
James felt a sense of understanding. It completely changed the way he saw life’s challenges.
