Undertourism
Overtourism has made travel headlines for a couple of years, pushing sustainable travelers to do their part by traveling in the off-season, shopping local, or 1 cities burdened with too many tourists. ·However, there is a growing trend on the opposite side of the coin: undertourism, the phenomenon of inadequate levels of tourism.
While some cities cope with overcrowded streets, others are actively 2 tourists. Increasingly, destinations take advantage of undertourism as a benefit — like Norway’s 2017 declaration to “rescue tired travelers from overcrowded European cities by flying them to Oslo.”
The bright side of undertourism? Being a mindful, 3 traveler is important no matter where you go. It’s a chance for travelers to plot paths where their money makes a real 4 . Travelers looking for genuine experiences could do better for themselves — and their destinations — by heading off the 5 track.
Here are two “undertourist-ed” destinations recommended by travel writers:
Flores and Sumba in Indonesia
Traveller writer Kylie McLaughlin admitted Indonesia’s need for tourists is shocking considering how popular Bali (巴厘岛-印尼的岛屿) is among vacationers. But Bali is only one island. And Indonesia’s archipelago (群岛) has a population of 260million across islands still 6 by tourists. Fellow travel writer Ilona Biro said Flores and Sumba have similar 7
Western Mongolia
Writer Aubrey Menarndt says traveling to 8 destinations makes her journeys feel like she is discovering something new. Hiking in Mongolia’s Bayan-Olgii provided such an adventure.
“In the still-deep snow of late May, my friend and I climbed a peak to view the 9 of China, Russia, and Mongolia. The only being we encountered on our way was a(n) 10 mountain dog who motivated and kept us company in exchange for snacks,” she said.

How AI Is Changing Students’ Life
AI is changing students’ life. In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has 11 many parts of student life. From AI writing assistants and smart learning apps to voice translation tools and virtual tutors, students today are surrounded by 12 technology. For many teenagers, AI has become not only a study tool but also a part of daily routine.
One of the most 13 aspects of AI is its ability to make learning more efficient. Students can get grammar corrections, math solutions, and essay suggestions in seconds. Many AI platforms also offer students special 14 , which make learning tools cheaper and more accessible, especially for families who cannot 15 expensive tutoring. In this way, well-developed Al tools help narrow the learning gap between students from different backgrounds.
However, relying too much on AI may bring challenges. Some students become overly 16 to AI, depending on it for homework and writing. This may reduce their critical thinking and creativity. It can also be 17 when a student uses AI-generated content that doesn’t match their real ability and is questioned by teachers. AI might 18 quick answers, but it does not teach students how to think deeply or express themselves in their own voice.
Another issue is culture and communication. Al tools are often trained on global data and may ignore local values or school rules. For example, they might misunderstand local 19 or suggest examples that are not suitable for classroom use. Students need to develop the ability to judge what AI gives them instead of trusting it blindly.
Overall, AI is a double-edged sword. On one hand, it brings great convenience and learning support. On the other hand, it may lead to over-dependence and shallow learning if not used 20 . As AI continues to develop, students must learn how to use it wisely. Teachers and parents also have a role to play in helping young people find a healthy balance between technology and personal effort.

TCM teas are hotter in health market
Herbal tea inspired by traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is being prepared at a TCM hospital in Dingxi, Gansu province, in December. Several Chinese hospitals have found their 1 in the country’s growing health drinks market by prescribing herbal formulas (开处方) that target minor 2 , from calming nerves and aiding sleep to promoting healthy hair.
Yunnan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine recently launched five herbal medicine formulas for drinking. On the first day of the market 3 , 10,000 doses (剂量) were sold.
Wan Xixi, deputy director of the hospital’s medical administration department, says these formulas are finished 4 on prescriptions from famous TCM practitioners (从业人员). Each dose of herbs is 5 packaged and can be boiled for easy consumption at home. “The bags of dried herbs are not 6 for purchase on the market. To obtain them, individuals must obtain a prescription as they are tailored to individual differences,” Wan explains.
In recent years, an increasing number of health-conscious people have developed a strong interest in such herbal tea drinks.
Many Chinese hospitals, especially TCM hospitals, are keen to promote their special herbal tea formulas, some of which change seasonally. For example, in summer, they focus on formulas of smoked tea for 7 from summer heat. In winter, herbal tea formulas for throat clearing are more popular.
In addition to hospitals, many pharmacies (药房), including the 8 brand Beijing Tong Ren Tang, have seen a boost in herbal tea sales.
Pharmacies 9 buyers that while some herbs are available in drink form and others, and can be consumed as food, herbal formulas are still 10 medicine and should be taken under proper medical supervision.

Sometimes it’s the simplest daily practice that can have the biggest impact on your health, and yoga is proof of that. Although most forms of yoga aren’t considered to be as intense as other workout regimens, practising yoga on a daily basis has been scientifically demonstrated to help you mentally and 11 . Through breath work, meditation and holding poses that increase strength and 12 the body and mind gain benefits from yoga that positively impact your long-term health. It’s no 13 people have been practising yoga for over 5000 years, and that the number of Australians practising yoga doubled between 2008 and 2017 to over two million, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
Yoga teacher, Jenni Tarmar, shares, “we have a 14 of research demonstrating that a regular mindfulness practice - the act of paying attention to the sensation in the body, thoughts and emotions without judgment - can reduce stress and help us to feel calmer, more productive, and 15 more even-keeled in our daily lives.”
After evaluating yoga history and research, one 2014 review published in Frontiers in Human Neouroscience concluded that 16 yoga practice can help facilitate self-regulation. Another study of adolescents between the ages of 13 and 18 found that practising yoga positively benefited emotional regulation and self-esteem. “Movement releases beneficial neurotransmitters (神经转发器) in the brain, which helps us feel good as well as assist in 17 regulation,” says yoga instructor, Evan Lawrence. “One of the things that I like about yoga specifically is that there is, at the same time, a focus on physical movement and 18 .”
According to associate professor of psychiatry, Dr Gail Saltz, “practising yoga improves overall blood 19 to the body, including the brain, which is helpful for cognition and memory.”
One 2019 review published in Brain Plasticity concluded that behavioural interventions like yoga can help “mitigate age-related and neurodegenerative decline” due to the positive effects a daily practice has on different parts of the 20 brain, like the hippocampus (which plays a major role in learning and memory) and the prefrontal cortex (cognitive control functions).

The population of the world is increasing rapidly. By 2030, there could be 8.0 billion people on earth. Will there be 1 food for all these people, or will we have a food shortage? Some scientists think fish farming could 2 this problem. However, other scientists worry that fish farming could cause serious environmental problems.
Fish farming is not a 3 thing. There were fish farms in China 3, 000 years ago. Today, about one-third of the fish we eat comes from fish farms.
Most fish farms raise plant-eating fish. Popular kinds of plant-eating fish are carp, tilapia, and catfish. Unfortunately, many fish farms are starting to raise meat-eating fish. A popular type of meat-eating fish is salmon. These meat-eating fish live on 4 food made from wild fish. However, it takes up to 5 tons of wild fish to produce just 1 ton of farm-raised salmon. The 5 of wild fish is already decreasing.
Eventually, many types of wild fish could go 6 . What will we do then? 7 of fish farming also say that farm-raised fish is unhealthy for humans. They say the fish contains dangerous chemicals. They also blame the issue on fish farming because it pollutes the water. Another criticism is that farm-raised fish can spread diseases to wild fish.
Some people say that the farming methods being used now hasn’t 8 enough fish anyway. Instead of putting fish farms in lakes or near the coast, they say that the fish farms should be moved far out into the ocean. Several countries have already 9 with deep-ocean farms. In the future, fish farms might be large cages that move across the ocean.
Like most things, there is both a good and a bad side to fish farming. Fish farming may help to 10 millions of people. At the same time, however, fish farming may damage the environment.

Rhinoceros horns(犀牛角) are big business. Traditional Chinese medicine uses them to treat rheumatism and gout, even though they have no actual pharmaceutical properties beyond placebo(安慰剂). And craftsmen carve them into dagger handles. A kilogram can thus 11 as much as $60,000, so there is tremendous incentive for poachers to hunt the animals. Since almost all rhinoceros populations are endangered, several 12 , this is a serious problem.
Some conservationists therefore suggest that a way to reduce pressure on the animals might be to 13 the market with fakes. This, they hope, would reduce the value of real horns and 14 , the motivation to hunt rhinos.
That would require the fake s to be good. But Fritz Vollrath, a zoologist at Oxford University, thinks his skills as a forger(伪造者) are up to the challenge. As he writes in Scientific Reports, he and his colleagues from Fudan University, in Shanghai, have come up with a cheap and easy-to-make fake 15 similar to the real thing.
The main ingredient of Dr. Vollrath’s forged horns is horsehair. Despite their 16 appearances, horses and rhinos are reasonably closely related. Horses do not have horns, of course. But, technically, neither do rhinos. The “horns” of rhinoceros are composed of hairs 17 tightly together using a mixture of dead cells.
Examination under a microscope showed that hairs collected from horses’ tails had similar features to those found in the horns of rhinos except that horse hairs had a special layer 18 in those of the rhino, but the researchers were able to remove this with a solution of lithium bromide.(溴化锂溶液)
They bundled the treated horse hairs as tightly as they could in a matrix of a special glue, and then left the bundles in an oven to dry. The result was a rough material that, with some 19 , looked like rhino horn.
Whether to launch 20 fakes onto the rhinoceros-horn market would truly reduce prices and demand remains to be tested. But it might. It is an old trick in warfare to leave the enemy with forged, worthless money. Something similar may yet help save the rhino.

A nation’s reality shows do not arise from nowhere. In the late nineteen-nineties, one of the most popular programs on Russian television was “Intercept,” in which police officers 1 and beat contestants who were trying to steal cars. In the late spring of 2016, billboards appeared across Britain, 2 a show that would attempt to remake society altogether. “No poverty. No bankers’ bonuses. No cyber-bullying.” Each poster asked the same question: “What if we could start again?”
The show was called “Eden,” and it was about to 3 on Channel 4. The channel had been looking for an equivalent 4 since giving up the franchise(特权)of “Big Brother” in 2010, and “Eden,” with a rumored budget of fifteen million pounds, was the next contender. A group of twenty-three skilled strangers would live in the 5 isolated from the world, for a year. The cast members would build their own shelters and hunt and grow their food while a small crew and a set of remote cameras observed every minute of the “society”.
Onscreen, “Eden” was slow and sincere. Filming had started in late March, and the participants were figuring out how to farm and how to feed themselves. The program was honest, as if it wasn’t sure if it was a documentary or something more performative. The cast seemed 6 too. They appeared divided about whether they should build a round tent and throw parties on the beach or dedicate more time to growing cabbage in the soil. At the same time, a male group discussed 7 weaker members out of the group. During its initial run of four episodes, “Eden” s audience, which began with two million viewers, nearly 8 .
The show went off the screen. The plan had been to broadcast four mini-seasons, 9 the community’s progress throughout the year. But “Eden” did not return. In October, its Twitter feeds 10 up. However, unlike other reality shows, the makers of “Eden” persevered. The experiment went on.

Sakamoto Ryuichi, who died on March 28th after a long battle with cancer, once described his musical method thus: “I open my ears to the world.” But what Mr. Sakamoto heard, few others could. As a member of the Japanese techno-pop band Yellow Magic Orchestra, he helped 11 modern electronic music. His passing elicited tributes from musical luminaries (杰出人物) around the world, testimony to the influence of his genre- 12 career.
Mr. Sakamoto was born in Tokyo in 1952 and took to music early. He graduated from one of Tokyo’s top conservatories, where he studied Western classical music, becoming especially 13 by Claude Debussy. There, he also explored an interest in the traditional music of Okinawa as well as in that of India and Africa.
Early in his career, Mr. Sakamoto trained his ears on the sound of technology. Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO), a group he formed in 1978 alongside Hosono Haruomi and Takahashi Yukihiro, used synthesizers in instrumental songs 14 for dancing — a 15 combination at the time. “Errors or noises absorb me and I wonder if a new cultural 16 could emerge from this deficiency,”
YMO’s success made Mr. Sakamoto a star in Japan, leading to a role opposite David Bowie in Oshima Nagisa’s 1983 film “Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence”. Mr. Sakamoto agreed to act in the movie on 17 that he could score (配乐) it. His compositions, which blended melodic piano chords, sweeping synthesizers and Javanese gamelan, propelled him to global fame — and established him as an artist 18 east and west.
Unusually for a Japanese musician, Mr. Sakamoto used his fame to speak out on social and political issues, including environmental preservation and the oppression of Okinawans. Nuclear power was a particular problem. “They know nuclear power is unnecessary and dangerous,” he railed in an interview in 2006, five years before an earthquake and tsunami rocked north-east Japan and triggered a nuclear meltdown in Fukushima. In the 19 of the disaster, Mr. Sakamoto travelled often to the region to support local residents.
In 2014 a first cancer diagnosis shook Mr. Sakamoto’s life. But even that could not 20 his longing to hear more. The next year he composed the score for Mr. Iñárritu’s “The Revenant”. In “Coda”, a documentary about Mr. Sakamoto released two years later, he can be seen traversing the North Pole and dropping microphones underneath the ice. “I’m fishing the sound,” he says, grinning at the camera, before declaring his catch “the purest I’ve ever heard”.

Tree climbing is a curious form of travel. Discovering a trunk with a clear path to the crown is as fascinating as finding a ladder to the moon; this is the 1 of climbing, a method of getting away from the boring everyday life.
Putting physical space between ourselves and our daily routines cannot be 2 . After days spent writing papers and finishing assignments, climbing brings a step back from a wholly 3 environment. Tree tops are spaces that renew our 4 for small pleasures: reading a book, talking to a friend or enjoying a cup of coffee. Sitting on a branch provides a kind of 5 amnesia (失忆) in the natural world that allows us to forget street-level worries. When we sit alone in the greenwood, a new loneliness is experienced — the comfort of clear thought. Crossing roads or making phone calls, we are too engaged to look up. Tree climbing provides the 6 link to our love of nature in our childhood.
Living in the city, a vital part of us becomes 7 and our natural instincts are restricted. The city becomes more crowded by the day but we must not allow our need for space to 8 out the tree world. Our 9 with nature mustn’t be limited to advertisements or watching mice running over rail lines.
Now 10 the geographic drawing on your phone and try looking on the world from a branch. You might be surprised at the vision itself: a secret garden in the sky.

Teens need real jobs, not elite internships
The vogue for teenagers doing prestigious internships or having “enrichment experiences” may have gone too far in the narrow swath of society that can afford this dubious (微不足道的) luxury. Well-meaning parents believe that they’re offering their kids something better than a/an 11 , traditional summer job. But are they?
When I was in college, I worked at Bartley’s Burger Cottage. My hair and clothes smelled like grease, and I had to learn the precise 12 of the “Kennedy Burger” and maybe 47 other burgers, but it was a great job. There was something relaxing or liberating about doing work completely unrelated to our futures or career goals or creative 13 . Would we have been happier if we were interning at publishing houses or consulting firms? I am not so sure.
While it can seem like kids in fancy internships with carefully curated resumes are better prepared for life, that may not be entirely true. One of my daughter’s friends told me about missing a flight for a very important presentation at her internship that Monday. She ended up spending money she had been saving up for the school year to buy a very expensive ticket to make it back in time, and getting 14 any sleep. When she arrived, it turned out no one was around to hear her very important presentation.
In that internship, she felt anxious, a little 15 , and was fairly quiet. But in her restaurant job she was more relaxed. She found herself opening up to strangers, learning to banter (打趣), to talk to anyone, to put people at 16 .
Working in a restaurant or store is a/an 17 class in human interaction. You learn how to respond to 18 , to pettiness (吹毛求疵), to demanding or fickle desires, to unruly or unfair 19 , which are highly useful skills to master when you are young. You are exposed to a variety of colorful strangers. You figure out how to manage all kinds of situations. And, of course, learning to 20 people is something you need in every profession, in every walk of life.

We are increasingly learning that our guts (肠胃) and our brains are intimately linked. But while there has been extensive research into how our diets can accelerate brain aging, less is known about the foods that can prevent cognitive 31 .
“The 32 field of Nutritional Cognitive Neuroscience uncovers specific foods and nutrients that promote brain health across the lifespan,” Aron Barbey, director of the Center for Brain, Biology and Behavior at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, told Newsweek. “Central to this effort is the discovery of nutrient profiles that can be used in nutritional interventions 33 at enhancing brain health.”
In a new study, published in the journal Nature Aging, Barbey, Jisheng Wu, and Christopher Zwilling used state-of-the-art technology to establish a set of specific nutrient profiles associated with better cognitive performance in adults over the age of 65, offering a 34 path towards designing nutritional interventions to promote healthy brain aging.
The study involved 100 cognitively healthy participants aged 65 to 75. The analysis 35 two types of brain aging among the participants: accelerated and slower than expected. And those with slower brain aging had a distinct nutritional profile. The researchers said that this nutritional profile is closely linked with nutrients found in the Mediterranean diet, which has 36 been associated with healthy brain aging.
The Mediterranean diet is 37 by a diet rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and olive oil, with a moderate intake of cheese and fish and a limited intake of red and processed meat. This study provides a more 38 analysis of these associations.
“First, it’s one of the largest and most comprehensive studies to use blood-based biomarkers to investigate the 39 between diet and brain health,” he said. “Second, it goes beyond traditional cognitive tests by employing multimodal neuroimaging measures, and provides a more complete picture of brain health.”
However, Barbey noted that further research was needed to confirm these results. Observational studies like this one need to be followed by controlled trials conducted 40 to confirm the effectiveness of the identified nutrient profile in promoting brain health.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章围绕“旅游不足”这一现象展开,将其与“旅游过度”进行对比,介绍了旅游不足现象及其带来的影响,并推荐了相关旅游目的地。
1.考查动名词。句意:几年来,过度旅游一直是旅游领域的头条新闻,促使可持续的旅行者在淡季旅行,在当地购物,或者避开游客太多的城市,以此来尽自己的一份力量。与“traveling in the off-season, shopping local”并列,表达“避开”游客过多的城市,应用动名词形式。故选D。
2.考查现在分词。句意:当一些城市应对拥挤的街道时,另一些城市正在积极吸引游客。“are actively ______ tourists”需现在分词,意为“积极吸引游客”,与前半句“过度拥挤”形成对比,“seeking”表示“寻求、吸引”。故选F。
3.考查形容词。 句意:无论你去哪里,做一个有意识的旅行者都很重要。修饰“traveler”,“mindful, conscious”强调“有意识的、细心的”,符合“负责任旅行”的语境。故选H。
4.考查名词。 句意:对于旅行者来说,这是一个机会,他们可以规划出自己的钱能真正发挥作用的路线。固定搭配“make a real difference”,表示“产生真正的影响”,指游客的消费能切实帮助目的地。故选E。
5.考查固定短语。 句意:寻求真正体验的旅行者如果不走寻常路,对自己和目的地都有好处。固定短语beaten track意为“常规的路,老路”,符合句意,故选A。
6.考查过去分词。 句意:印度尼西亚的群岛有2.6亿人口,其中一些岛屿尚未被游客发现。设空处修饰名词作定语,“islands still undiscovered by tourists”表示“仍未被游客发现的岛屿”,强调未被开发状态,应用过去分词。故选G。
7.考查名词。 句意:旅行作家伊洛娜·比罗说,弗洛雷斯和松巴岛也有类似的吸引力。“similar appeal”指“类似的吸引力”,说明Flores和Sumba与巴厘岛一样有旅游价值,但未被过度关注。故选B。
8.考查形容词。 句意:作家奥布里·梅纳恩特说,去市场不太发达的目的地旅行让她觉得自己在发现一些新东西。修饰“destinations”,“undermarketed”表示“营销不足的”,符合“旅游不足”中目的地未被充分推广的特点。故选K。
9.考查名词。 句意:五月末,我和朋友在厚厚的积雪中爬上了一座山峰,想看看中国、俄罗斯和蒙古的交界处。“the intersection of China, Russia, and Mongolia”指“中、俄、蒙三国交界处”,符合句意,故选C。
10.考查形容词。 句意:我们在路上唯一遇到的是一只值得信赖的山地狗,它激励着我们,陪伴着我们,以换取零食。修饰“mountain dog”,“trustworthy”意为“值得信赖的”,与后文 “陪伴并激励游客”的描述一致。故选J。

How AI Is Changing Students’ Life
AI is changing students’ life. In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has 11 many parts of student life. From AI writing assistants and smart learning apps to voice translation tools and virtual tutors, students today are surrounded by 12 technology. For many teenagers, AI has become not only a study tool but also a part of daily routine.
One of the most 13 aspects of AI is its ability to make learning more efficient. Students can get grammar corrections, math solutions, and essay suggestions in seconds. Many AI platforms also offer students special 14 , which make learning tools cheaper and more accessible, especially for families who cannot 15 expensive tutoring. In this way, well-developed Al tools help narrow the learning gap between students from different backgrounds.
However, relying too much on AI may bring challenges. Some students become overly 16 to AI, depending on it for homework and writing. This may reduce their critical thinking and creativity. It can also be 17 when a student uses AI-generated content that doesn’t match their real ability and is questioned by teachers. AI might 18 quick answers, but it does not teach students how to think deeply or express themselves in their own voice.
Another issue is culture and communication. Al tools are often trained on global data and may ignore local values or school rules. For example, they might misunderstand local 19 or suggest examples that are not suitable for classroom use. Students need to develop the ability to judge what AI gives them instead of trusting it blindly.
Overall, AI is a double-edged sword. On one hand, it brings great convenience and learning support. On the other hand, it may lead to over-dependence and shallow learning if not used 20 . As AI continues to develop, students must learn how to use it wisely. Teachers and parents also have a role to play in helping young people find a healthy balance between technology and personal effort.

Yoga teacher, Jenni Tarmar, shares, “we have a 14 of research demonstrating that a regular mindfulness practice - the act of paying attention to the sensation in the body, thoughts and emotions without judgment - can reduce stress and help us to feel calmer, more productive, and 15 more even-keeled in our daily lives.”
After evaluating yoga history and research, one 2014 review published in Frontiers in Human Neouroscience concluded that 16 yoga practice can help facilitate self-regulation. Another study of adolescents between the ages of 13 and 18 found that practising yoga positively benefited emotional regulation and self-esteem. “Movement releases beneficial neurotransmitters (神经转发器) in the brain, which helps us feel good as well as assist in 17 regulation,” says yoga instructor, Evan Lawrence. “One of the things that I like about yoga specifically is that there is, at the same time, a focus on physical movement and 18 .”

One 2019 review published in Brain Plasticity concluded that behavioural interventions like yoga can help “mitigate age-related and neurodegenerative decline” due to the positive effects a daily practice has on different parts of the 20 brain, like the hippocampus (which plays a major role in learning and memory) and the prefrontal cortex (cognitive control functions).

The population of the world is increasing rapidly. By 2030, there could be 8.0 billion people on earth. Will there be 1 food for all these people, or will we have a food shortage? Some scientists think fish farming could 2 this problem. However, other scientists worry that fish farming could cause serious environmental problems.
Fish farming is not a 3 thing. There were fish farms in China 3, 000 years ago. Today, about one-third of the fish we eat comes from fish farms.
Most fish farms raise plant-eating fish. Popular kinds of plant-eating fish are carp, tilapia, and catfish. Unfortunately, many fish farms are starting to raise meat-eating fish. A popular type of meat-eating fish is salmon. These meat-eating fish live on 4 food made from wild fish. However, it takes up to 5 tons of wild fish to produce just 1 ton of farm-raised salmon. The 5 of wild fish is already decreasing.
Eventually, many types of wild fish could go 6 . What will we do then? 7 of fish farming also say that farm-raised fish is unhealthy for humans. They say the fish contains dangerous chemicals. They also blame the issue on fish farming because it pollutes the water. Another criticism is that farm-raised fish can spread diseases to wild fish.
Some people say that the farming methods being used now hasn’t 8 enough fish anyway. Instead of putting fish farms in lakes or near the coast, they say that the fish farms should be moved far out into the ocean. Several countries have already 9 with deep-ocean farms. In the future, fish farms might be large cages that move across the ocean.
Like most things, there is both a good and a bad side to fish farming. Fish farming may help to 10 millions of people. At the same time, however, fish farming may damage the environment.

Rhinoceros horns(犀牛角) are big business. Traditional Chinese medicine uses them to treat rheumatism and gout, even though they have no actual pharmaceutical properties beyond placebo(安慰剂). And craftsmen carve them into dagger handles. A kilogram can thus 11 as much as $60,000, so there is tremendous incentive for poachers to hunt the animals. Since almost all rhinoceros populations are endangered, several 12 , this is a serious problem.
Some conservationists therefore suggest that a way to reduce pressure on the animals might be to 13 the market with fakes. This, they hope, would reduce the value of real horns and 14 , the motivation to hunt rhinos.
That would require the fake s to be good. But Fritz Vollrath, a zoologist at Oxford University, thinks his skills as a forger(伪造者) are up to the challenge. As he writes in Scientific Reports, he and his colleagues from Fudan University, in Shanghai, have come up with a cheap and easy-to-make fake 15 similar to the real thing.
The main ingredient of Dr. Vollrath’s forged horns is horsehair. Despite their 16 appearances, horses and rhinos are reasonably closely related. Horses do not have horns, of course. But, technically, neither do rhinos. The “horns” of rhinoceros are composed of hairs 17 tightly together using a mixture of dead cells.
Examination under a microscope showed that hairs collected from horses’ tails had similar features to those found in the horns of rhinos except that horse hairs had a special layer 18 in those of the rhino, but the researchers were able to remove this with a solution of lithium bromide.(溴化锂溶液)
They bundled the treated horse hairs as tightly as they could in a matrix of a special glue, and then left the bundles in an oven to dry. The result was a rough material that, with some 19 , looked like rhino horn.
Whether to launch 20 fakes onto the rhinoceros-horn market would truly reduce prices and demand remains to be tested. But it might. It is an old trick in warfare to leave the enemy with forged, worthless money. Something similar may yet help save the rhino.

A group of twenty-three skilled strangers would live in the 5 isolated from the world, for a year. The cast members would build their own shelters and hunt and grow their food while a small crew and a set of remote cameras observed every minute of the “society”.
Onscreen, “Eden” was slow and sincere. Filming had started in late March, and the participants were figuring out how to farm and how to feed themselves. The program was honest, as if it wasn’t sure if it was a documentary or something more performative. The cast seemed 6 too. They appeared divided about whether they should build a round tent and throw parties on the beach or dedicate more time to growing cabbage in the soil.

Sakamoto Ryuichi, who died on March 28th after a long battle with cancer, once described his musical method thus: “I open my ears to the world.” But what Mr. Sakamoto heard, few others could. As a member of the Japanese techno-pop band Yellow Magic Orchestra, he helped 11 modern electronic music. His passing elicited tributes from musical luminaries (杰出人物) around the world, testimony to the influence of his genre- 12 career.
Mr. Sakamoto was born in Tokyo in 1952 and took to music early. He graduated from one of Tokyo’s top conservatories, where he studied Western classical music, becoming especially 13 by Claude Debussy. There, he also explored an interest in the traditional music of Okinawa as well as in that of India and Africa.
Early in his career, Mr. Sakamoto trained his ears on the sound of technology. Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO), a group he formed in 1978 alongside Hosono Haruomi and Takahashi Yukihiro, used synthesizers in instrumental songs 14 for dancing — a 15 combination at the time. “Errors or noises absorb me and I wonder if a new cultural 16 could emerge from this deficiency,”
YMO’s success made Mr. Sakamoto a star in Japan, leading to a role opposite David Bowie in Oshima Nagisa’s 1983 film “Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence”. Mr. Sakamoto agreed to act in the movie on 17 that he could score (配乐) it. His compositions, which blended melodic piano chords, sweeping synthesizers and Javanese gamelan, propelled him to global fame — and established him as an artist 18 east and west.
Unusually for a Japanese musician, Mr. Sakamoto used his fame to speak out on social and political issues, including environmental preservation and the oppression of Okinawans. Nuclear power was a particular problem. “They know nuclear power is unnecessary and dangerous,” he railed in an interview in 2006, five years before an earthquake and tsunami rocked north-east Japan and triggered a nuclear meltdown in Fukushima. In the 19 of the disaster, Mr. Sakamoto travelled often to the region to support local residents.
In 2014 a first cancer diagnosis shook Mr. Sakamoto’s life. But even that could not 20 his longing to hear more. The next year he composed the score for Mr. Iñárritu’s “The Revenant”. In “Coda”, a documentary about Mr. Sakamoto released two years later, he can be seen traversing the North Pole and dropping microphones underneath the ice. “I’m fishing the sound,” he says, grinning at the camera, before declaring his catch “the purest I’ve ever heard”.

Tree climbing is a curious form of travel. Discovering a trunk with a clear path to the crown is as fascinating as finding a ladder to the moon; this is the 1 of climbing, a method of getting away from the boring everyday life.
Putting physical space between ourselves and our daily routines cannot be 2 . After days spent writing papers and finishing assignments, climbing brings a step back from a wholly 3 environment. Tree tops are spaces that renew our 4 for small pleasures: reading a book, talking to a friend or enjoying a cup of coffee. Sitting on a branch provides a kind of 5 amnesia (失忆) in the natural world that allows us to forget street-level worries. When we sit alone in the greenwood, a new loneliness is experienced — the comfort of clear thought. Crossing roads or making phone calls, we are too engaged to look up. Tree climbing provides the 6 link to our love of nature in our childhood.
Living in the city, a vital part of us becomes 7 and our natural instincts are restricted. The city becomes more crowded by the day but we must not allow our need for space to 8 out the tree world. Our 9 with nature mustn’t be limited to advertisements or watching mice running over rail lines.
Now 10 the geographic drawing on your phone and try looking on the world from a branch. You might be surprised at the vision itself: a secret garden in the sky.

Teens need real jobs, not elite internships
The vogue for teenagers doing prestigious internships or having “enrichment experiences” may have gone too far in the narrow swath of society that can afford this dubious (微不足道的) luxury. Well-meaning parents believe that they’re offering their kids something better than a/an 11 , traditional summer job. But are they?
When I was in college, I worked at Bartley’s Burger Cottage. My hair and clothes smelled like grease, and I had to learn the precise 12 of the “Kennedy Burger” and maybe 47 other burgers, but it was a great job. There was something relaxing or liberating about doing work completely unrelated to our futures or career goals or creative 13 . Would we have been happier if we were interning at publishing houses or consulting firms? I am not so sure.
While it can seem like kids in fancy internships with carefully curated resumes are better prepared for life, that may not be entirely true. One of my daughter’s friends told me about missing a flight for a very important presentation at her internship that Monday. She ended up spending money she had been saving up for the school year to buy a very expensive ticket to make it back in time, and getting 14 any sleep. When she arrived, it turned out no one was around to hear her very important presentation.
In that internship, she felt anxious, a little 15 , and was fairly quiet. But in her restaurant job she was more relaxed. She found herself opening up to strangers, learning to banter (打趣), to talk to anyone, to put people at 16 .
Working in a restaurant or store is a/an 17 class in human interaction. You learn how to respond to 18 , to pettiness (吹毛求疵), to demanding or fickle desires, to unruly or unfair 19 , which are highly useful skills to master when you are young. You are exposed to a variety of colorful strangers. You figure out how to manage all kinds of situations. And, of course, learning to 20 people is something you need in every profession, in every walk of life.

We are increasingly learning that our guts (肠胃) and our brains are intimately linked. But while there has been extensive research into how our diets can accelerate brain aging, less is known about the foods that can prevent cognitive 31 .
“The 32 field of Nutritional Cognitive Neuroscience uncovers specific foods and nutrients that promote brain health across the lifespan,” Aron Barbey, director of the Center for Brain, Biology and Behavior at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, told Newsweek. “Central to this effort is the discovery of nutrient profiles that can be used in nutritional interventions 33 at enhancing brain health.”
In a new study, published in the journal Nature Aging, Barbey, Jisheng Wu, and Christopher Zwilling used state-of-the-art technology to establish a set of specific nutrient profiles associated with better cognitive performance in adults over the age of 65, offering a 34 path towards designing nutritional interventions to promote healthy brain aging.
The study involved 100 cognitively healthy participants aged 65 to 75. The analysis 35 two types of brain aging among the participants: accelerated and slower than expected. And those with slower brain aging had a distinct nutritional profile. The researchers said that this nutritional profile is closely linked with nutrients found in the Mediterranean diet, which has 36 been associated with healthy brain aging.
The Mediterranean diet is 37 by a diet rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and olive oil, with a moderate intake of cheese and fish and a limited intake of red and processed meat. This study provides a more 38 analysis of these associations.
“First, it’s one of the largest and most comprehensive studies to use blood-based biomarkers to investigate the 39 between diet and brain health,” he said. “Second, it goes beyond traditional cognitive tests by employing multimodal neuroimaging measures, and provides a more complete picture of brain health.”
However, Barbey noted that further research was needed to confirm these results. Observational studies like this one need to be followed by controlled trials conducted 40 to confirm the effectiveness of the identified nutrient profile in promoting brain health.

34.考查形容词。句意:在《自然衰老》杂志上发表的一项新研究中,Barbey、Jisheng Wu和Christopher Zwilling利用最先进的技术建立了一套与65岁以上成年人更好的认知表现相关的特定营养成分,为设计营养干预措施促进健康的大脑衰老提供了一条有希望的途径。空格处位于名词之前修饰名词,所以需要填入形容词;根据前文“Barbey, Jisheng Wu, and Christopher Zwilling used state-of-the-art technology to establish a set of specific nutrient profiles associated with better cognitive performance in adults over the age of 65 (Barbey、Jisheng Wu和Christopher Zwilling利用最先进的技术建立了一套与65岁以上成年人更好的认知表现相关的特定营养成分)”可知,此处是提供了有希望的途径。形容词promising意为“有前途的,有希望的”符合句意,在句中作定语。故选J。
35.考查动词以及时态。句意:分析显示,参与者的大脑衰老有两种类型:比预期的更快和更慢。根据空格后“比预期的更快和更慢”可知,此处指的是揭示了两种情况,reveal意为“揭示”符合句意;在句中作谓语,此处描述的是过去的事情,所以用一般过去时。故选I。
36.考查副词。句意:研究人员说,这种营养状况与地中海饮食中的营养物质密切相关,地中海饮食曾被认为与健康的大脑衰老有关。空格处位于动词之前,因此需要填入副词,根据空格前“这种营养状况与地中海饮食中的营养物质密切相关”,可知,此处指的是地中海饮食曾经被认为与健康的大脑有关。previously意为“先前地”为副词,符合句意,在句中作状语。故选G。
37.考查动词以及被动语态。句意:地中海饮食的特点是饮食中富含全谷物、水果、蔬菜和橄榄油,适量摄入奶酪和鱼类,少量摄入红肉和加工肉。根据空格后“a diet rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and olive oil, with a moderate intake of cheese and fish and a limited intake of red and processed meat”可知,此处指的是地中海饮食的特点。characterize“成为……特征”;主语The Mediterranean diet与动词characterize之间为被动关系,空格前有be动词,所以用过去分词构成一般现在时的被动语态。故选B。
38.考查形容词。句意:本研究对这些关联提供了更客观的分析。空格处位于名词之前,修饰名词,所以需要填入形容词。根据前文“The researchers said that this nutritional profile is closely linked with nutrients found in the Mediterranean diet, which has ____6____ been associated with healthy brain aging. (研究人员说,这种营养状况与地中海饮食中的营养物质密切相关,地中海饮食曾被认为与健康的大脑衰老有关。)”可知,此处指的是客观的研究,形容词objective意为“客观的”,符合句意。故选F。
39.考查名词。句意:他说:“首先,这是使用基于血液的生物标志物来调查饮食和大脑健康之间关系的规模最大、最全面的研究之一。”设空处在句中作宾语,根据上文“This study provides a more ____8____ analysis of these associations.”可知,此处指的是饮食和大脑之间的联系。名词connection意为“联系”,符合句意。故选C。
40.考查副词。句意:然而,Barbey指出,需要进一步的研究来证实这些结果。像这样的观察性研究之后,需要随机进行对照试验,以确认所确定的营养成分在促进大脑健康方面的有效性。空格处修饰动词,所以要用副词;根据空格前“而,Barbey指出,需要进一步的研究来证实这些结果。”可知,此处需要随机进行对照试验。randomly意为“随机地”,符合句意。故选H。
