Camp on the James River
We have several campsites right on the scenic James River. We provide portable toilets and a garbage can, but have no drinking water, showers or electricity.
Campsite Fees
$35 a night for up to 5 people;
$7 for each additional person (Max: 10);
Children under 12 years old camp for free.
Campsite Descriptions
Site 1: This site has two areas, an upper and a lower, each with a stone fire ring and a picnic table. The upper area is flat and far enough away from the river. The lower area is right on the river and floods frequently. Put your tent in either spot.
Site 2: This site has a great view of the flowing James River. Access to the river is through a small hole in the bushes. A great spot for relaxing in the shade of mature trees. Stone fire ring and picnic table included.
Site 3: This site has a couple of paths that will lead you down the fairly steep(陡峭的)bank to the river. The river in front of the site is usually waist-deep and gently flowing. Great for fishing and cooling off.
Site 4: This is the most primitive site we have. With only one neighbor(Site 3), it is very private and remote. The river is literally a stone's throw from your picnic table and stone fire ring. This site has shallow(knee-deep) moving water located, which is suitable for fishing!

David Thompson sat on a hard bench behind the long narrow desk and watched the flies fly lazily in the sun. The drone of the younger boys reading letters and the older boys reciting Latin verbs made him sleepy. David had to force his eyes to stay open. He wanted to learn something new
He looked up at the schoolmaster's high desk in the front of the room. The new teacher, Mr. John Adam, was from Harvard College. David's father had been impressed with him. The boys had already had several other teachers, but none of them seemed to inspire David. So far, there was nothing to show that this one was special, though he'd only been there two days.
“It's too hot to sit and memorize lessons,” the schoolmaster said. “We' ll move outdoors for the next part of our lesson.” He led the group of boys into the schoolyard.“You younger boys, dig for grubs and beetles(幼虫和甲虫). Count their feet. See if you can describe their shells(壳).”
David watched the teacher surrounded by laughing young students. No one had ever used the schoolyard itself for a classroom. “What next?” he thought. Soon he didn't have time to think about the younger boys, for he was running after butterflies and dragonflies himself.
David and his friends liked this new way of learning.
“It will be a clear night tonight. Go outside and look at the sky,” said the schoolmaster. “Look at the stars ad notice their brightness and the patterns they make. These patterns have names from Greek mythology(神话), names like Orion, Aries, and others. Tomorrow we will learn about the ancient stories on them.”
“How is the new schoolmaster?” asked David's father that evening, when David announced he was going out to look at the sky.
“He's different from any schoolmaster we' ve had,” David admitted. “He seems interested in everything around him, and he wants us to be curious too. He even used the schoolyard as a classroom”
“So Mr. John Adams and his new ways make school useful to you after all,” joked David's father.
“I believe he has,” said David. “I know I won't forget the lessons he has taught us”
24. What does the underlined word “drone” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Clear speaking voices. B. Low dull sounds.
C. Enthusiastic responses. D. High spirits.
25. Which statement shows that the new schoolmaster understood the children?
A.“It's too hot to sit and memorize lessons…”
B.“See if you can describe their shells…”
C.“Go outside and look at the sky…”
D.“Tomorrow we will learn about the ancient stories…”
26. From paragraph 9, we can learn that .
A. David's father had met the new schoolmaster
B. David had thought poorly of school before
C. David's father was not satisfied with the new ways
D. David had shown his father his homework
27. What is the main idea of this story?
A. Science is all around us.
B. School provides us with the best education.
C. There is more than one way to learn.
D. Homework is an important part of education.
C
My brother once said, “I’d love for us all to live together, but it's just not practical. “This reflects a Western way of thinking that values independence over living with family. However, as housing costs rise and families face elder care challenges, this way of thinking is changing. Living with several generations—— common in places like China—— is becoming popular in the UK.
Recent reports showed that 1.8 million UK households now include two or more adult generations. Census(人口普查) data showed that 71 percent of Britons would consider it in the future. Money is a big reason: The cost-of-living crisis makes sharing rent, utilities(水电费) and groceries practical. For aging parents, avoiding expensive care facilities lowers financial pressure. However, focusing only on money misses the deeper benefits.
Living together isn't just about sharing bills; it's about sharing lives. It creates support systems: Grandparents look after children, adults help with chores and teens learn patience and care from elders. In a society facing loneliness, especially among seniors, being close allows daily contact that phone calls can't replace. My brother's wish for a “big house “wasn’t only old memories—— it showed that separated families often miss these moments.
Of course, there are challenges. Privacy concerns, different routines and small spaces require give-and-take(互相谦让). But modern design, from granny flats to shared common areas, can help. The key is to set boundaries while respecting each other.
Some people say living with several generations feels like going backward. I see it as progress: using tradition to solve modern problems. China's model worked not because of duty, but because it understood that family members need each other. As we rethink aging, childcare and housing costs in the West, combining households offers more than just saving money—— it can bring back the sense of community we' ve lost.
Living with several generations isn't for everyone, but calling it“ impractical” ignores its potential. It is a caring response to today's pressures, one that turns “my burden(负担)” into “our shared life”. Let's stop seeing it as a sacrifice and start valuing it as a choice worth considering.
28. What does the author suggest about the Western view of family life?
A. It prefers wealth to relationships.
B. It sees independence as important.
C. It values privacy more than support.
D. It ignores tradition in modern times.
29. What deeper role of multi-generational living does the author highlight?
A. It strengthens family connections.
B. It encourages respect for traditions.
C. It prepares children for adulthood.
D. It reduces dependence on society.
30. Why does the author mention China's model of living?
A. To criticize Western values.
B. To provide a cultural difference.
C. To show a successful example.
D. To defend traditional duties.
31. What does the author consider multi-generational living?
A. It is modern yet imperfect.
B. It is practical yet a short-term fix.
C. It is outdated but unavoidable.
D. It is challenging but helpful.
D
What did you have for breakfast today? And how did you celebrate your last birthday? When you think back to these events, you' re using episodeic memory(情景记忆)—— the ability to recall personal experiences tied to specific times and places. But how does your brain keep these memories separate without mixing them up?
Scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles, in the US believe this is thanks to a “memory reset button” in our brainstem(脑干). This small region, called the locus coeruleus(蓝斑核), helps organize and separate our memories.
In the study, 36 volunteers took part in a memory task. Lying in an MRI scanner(核磁共振扫描仪), they were shown a series of pictures of different objects. Meanwhile, several simple tones were played over and over again, first in one ear and then in the other with a different pitch(音调). The pitch change aimed to change the context(情境) and create an event boundary.
According to a previous study by Kansas State University in the US, event boundaries help the brain organize episodeic memory by changing our perception(感知) and attention. Ever walked into a room and suddenly forgot why? That's an event boundary—— entering or exiting a room—— at work.
After the experiment, scientists tested how well the volunteers could recall the order of the pictures. The result showed that it was harder to do when the series of pictures crossed an event boundary. This suggests that changes in sound made the brain store memories separately. What's more, MRI scans showed that the locus coeruleus became highly active when event boundaries appeared, but not so much otherwise.
Earlier research showed that the hippocampus(海马体), another brain region, helps shape episodeic memory by both linking events close together in time and separating those further apart. But what tells the hippocampus when to change modes? MRI scans suggest that “the locus coeruleus may provide the critical‘ start’ signal to the hippocampus, as if saying,' Hey, we' re in a new event now’,” said Lila Davachi, one of the researchers.
The new understanding could lead to better treatments for memory-related problems like Alzheimer's disease, where the locus coeruleus is overactive. These conditions might be managed by calming the locus coeruleus through medication, slow breathing or even using stress balls.
32. How does the author introduce the research in the beginning?
A. By sharing experiences. B. By raising questions.
C. By imagining scenes. D. By explaining a theory.
33. What was the purpose of playing tones with different pitches in the experiment?
A. To create real-life situations. B. To test volunteers’ hearing ability.
C. To mark a shift to a new context. D. To increase the difficulty of the task.
34. What did the MRI scans reveal about the locus coeruleus during the experiment?
A. It showed higher activity at event boundaries.
B. It sent signals to the hippocampus regularly.
C. It controlled volunteers’ memory recall order.
D. It helped link pictures to specific sounds.
35. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The difficulty of treating memory-related disease.
B. The potential applications of the research findings.
C. The drawbacks of the small-scale experiment.
D. The future research directions for memory.

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佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Improve your attention span
May I have your attention, please? I' ll try and be quick, as I probably only have about47 seconds before your mind starts wandering(走神). That, according to psychologist Dr Gloria Mark, is now our average attention span(注意力持续时间), based on her latest study of people's use of screens in the workplace. Of course, this figure have its limits. As other psychologists have argued your concentration can vary so much, the very idea of an “average" attention span is almost meaningless. 36 .
Nevertheless, it's likely your attention span is decreasing. As one recent survey suggests, nearly half the population nowadays feels as if theirs is worse than it was. 37 .
Of course, we can silence our phone notifications(通知) and put on noise- canceling headphones. 38 . Unknowingly, you' re“interrupting” yourself all day long, according to Mark. Even while reading this, you may have gotten the sudden desire to look something up online, check your emails or do something else. “It’s something we do without realizing, “said Mark.
39 . Lining up your most mentally taxing tasks with your natural peaks(顶峰) of focus is key to concentration, says Mark. Her research has found that, on average, these high points occur around 10 a. m. in the morning and around 2-3 p. m. in the afternoon. 40 , depending on whether you' re more of a morning person or a night person. “If a person is an early type, their peak focus would be earlier—— before 10 a. m.,” explains Mark. “And if they' re a late type, their peak focus will be later.”
A. There are differences around these times
B. Don't expect to always be focused and productive
C. One solution to this is to pay attention to your body clock
D. Because of this, there isn't even scientific agreement on how to measure focus
E. With the ever-present pull of our emails and social media, it's easy to see why
F. However, even when we' ve done all that, there's still the enemy within to deal with
G. While we don't all have the same attention span, truly paying attention to something is universal

Several years ago, I met a girl through our local community theater. She's in her late teens— much 41 than me.
I' ve been involved in musical theater for years, while she was more of a(n) 42 . Whenever she sought advice, I was 43 to provide guidance. She's a really sweet girl who works hard and is deeply 44 about musicals, but she came from a low- income family that couldn't 45 to pay for extra classes.
Recently, she shared some 46 news with me. She had 47 a trial singing class(试听课) with a teacher who is a friend of mine, and she loved it.

Given her upcoming birthday next month, I discussed the matter with my friend, who 51 agreed to reduce the class fees. Also, I prepared a special gift: a voucher(代金券)for 12 singing lessons. I placed it in an envelope, 52 the stage manager to give it to her 53 after rehearsals(彩排) without revealing who it's from.
Although I haven't seen her reaction, I like to imagine her 54 and joy when she discovered this chance to pursue her dreams. Sometimes, the greatest 55 comes from helping others without expectation of recognition.
