On the first day of school this year,Joseph Riley,the principal of Pocahontas County High School
in West Virginia,dropped by the band classroom and told the 38 students that the school had been
unable to find a band teacher after the former teacher left over the summer to take a teaching position at
a different school.
"I said that we'd have to get them into other classes,"Riley said.Then he gave the students a
second option.If the teens wanted to keep the Warriors band going and teach themselves,the school
would support them.Most students decided to take a different class,but ten students took him up on the
offer.The guys didn't give up in the face of adversity and they found the courage to keep the band
going.
The ten band members elected Hailey Fitzgerald,17,as band director,and then invited two
teachers from the school to serve as advisors.Math teacher Jennifer Nail-Cook agreed to offer support.
They're an ensemble(合s团队)together,”Fitzgerald said.“They also had to solve a problem when
they realized they had too many drummers."The band's latest performance was at their school's
Homecoming Day."When we do our school song,that's probably everybody's favorite,"said Jadyn

Lane,17."To see so many people supporting and cheering us on,that's a huge motivator."

working together to make sure our school still has a band.It's incredible to witness the progress they've
made on their own."

With cities growing faster than ever,more and more neglected(被忽视的)urban spaces are
cropping up all around the world.Dealing with the increase in these neglected spaces poses a serious
problem for virtually every major city,but could art be the answer to this urban problem?
Valero Square,centrally located in Jerusalem's downtown near a busy light rail station and a major
open-air market,should have been a lively community area.Instead,it fell into neglect due to a lack of
people-focused programming,becoming a wasted space that thousands passed by daily without a
second thought.That was,until the introduction of the Warde installation ()which is part of a
greater plan to revitalise(使恢复生机)the neglected urban spaces in Jerusalem's city centre.
The installation features giant red "flowers"which can open and close in reaction to passers-by.
Standing under one of the flowers will cause it to open and stay open until you leave,providing shade
and relief from the hot summer sun.At night-time,it functions as lighting,providing a spotlight while
open and a warm,soft light while closed.The installation is also programmed to react to public
transportation,springing to life as the light rail vehicles arrive and leave the square,warning travellers
not to miss their ride.
Art installations can be powerful in changing the attitudes and behaviour of people in cities.In the
case of Valero Square,the installation has invited people not only to engage with it actively but to
notice a previously neglected site.However,this type of interactive installation is not free from
problems.Over time,the freshness can wear off and the behaviour of passers-by can return to normal.
While it's too early to say if Valero Square has been revived,Warde is an excellent example of how

urban art installations can be a great tool for engaging communities with neglected spaces and getting

Teenagers today have more buying power than ever.In fact,young people are influencing where
the family budget goes more and more.But what influences young people when it comes to making
those spending decisions?
One of the most important factors is peer pressure.Many young people say that they often feel
pressured to conform to their friends'opinions and expectations.When a classmate brings a new
gadget (to school and people remark on how "cool"it is (or not),it strengthens (or challenges)
their membership of a group.
And it seems that peer pressure may be taking on new forms with the development of social media.
Suddenly,rather than a dozen friends at school saying what the latest trend is,there's a whole
world of teenagers online telling you what you should or shouldn't be buying.This often adds to a
feeling of FOMO(fear of missing out),which is when you worry that exciting things are happening
that you are not a part of.
On top of that,many teens are being paid by brands to promote their products online.Businesses
know that the most powerful influence over teenagers is other teenagers.And rather than traditional
advertisements,which are clearly trying to sell a product,promotion from social media celebrities is
made to look real.We watch a young person who we admire talking about going to a certain cinema
chain with her friends.That weekend,we go to the same cinema chain in our own town,without
thinking about the fact that she might have been paid to talk about that particular brand.So how can
you resist such peer pressure?One strategy is to focus on a long-term goal which you need to save for.
If your money is put away for a great holiday next summer,you shouldn't spend it on something you
don't really need or want right now.
32.What does the underlined phrase"conform to"in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Fit with.
B.Ask for.
C.Care about.
D.Argue against.
33.What changes has social media brought to peer pressure?
A.Encouraging more face-to-face interactions.
B.Expanding influence from classmates to global teens.
C.Reducing teenagers'purchasing power significantly.
D.Removing traditional advertisements completely.

Overcoming Adversity
Adversity is a natural part of the human experience,and it presents us with opportunities for
growth and development.Research has shown that individuals who have successfully overcome
adversity often emerge stronger.
Overcoming adversity can lead to the development of important life skills such as problem-
solving,adaptability,and emotional intelligence.36 People who have developed them by
overcoming adversity are better equipped to meet future challenges.
The impact of overcoming adversity extends beyond personal growth and development.37
Research found that individuals who have successfully overcome adversity exhibit lower levels of
stress and anxiety compared to those who have not faced significant challenges.This suggests that
the resilience (and coping strategies developed through overcoming adversity can have long-term
positive effects on mental well-being.
Additionally,individuals who have overcome adversity often serve as sources of inspiration and
motivation for others facing similar challenges.38 This creates a sense of community and support.
While overcoming adversity is a deeply personal and individualized process,there are certain strategies
that can be effective for navigating through challenging times.One such strategy is to develop a growth
mindset ()39 It is different from seeing them as unsolvable problems.Research conducted
by psychologist Carol Dreck has demonstrated the power of a growth mindset in promoting
determination in the face of adversity.
40 Whether it's through friends,family,or support groups,having a strong support network
can provide individuals with the encouragement and guidance they need to navigate through difficult
times.
A.It is useful for solving a difficult personal relationship.
B.This means viewing challenges as opportunities to learn and grow.
C.Overcoming adversity is a challenging part for most human beings.
D.These skills are crucial for success in both personal and professional life.
E.It can also have significant effects on an individual's mental and physical health.
F.They can give hope to those who are struggling by sharing their stories of success.
G.Another effective strategy for overcoming adversity is seeking support from others.

The afternoon was very hot and dry.Sweat ran down Richard's face as the 24-year-old kept
cycling along a rural road.Suddenly,he noticed a small bike lying by the roadside.He immediately got
off the bike and approached the spot,noticing a water bottle and a small pink helmet lying nearby.He
bent closer and saw fresh little muddy footsteps disappearing into the woods.
Richard's eyebrows shot up as he hurried toward the entrance of the thick forest.It seemed highly
unusual for a little kid to be alone there.He had seen several houses on his way here,but even the
nearest one was about five miles away.What would a kid be doing here all alone?Richard was
confused and anxious.
Richard's instincts (told him something was wrong,so he cupped his hands around his
mouth and called out:"Hello,anyone there?"Just as he changed course,he heard a distant cry from the
heart of the woods.It was a little girl's voice crying for help."Help...I'm stuck...Help..."The voice
faded with the wind."I'm coming!Hold on!"Richard rushed toward the voice.As he got closer,he
was shocked by what he saw.
Tree branches moved quickly in circles on the muddy-brown river,the powerful current rushing
through the rocks.He noticed a little girl and a dog holding onto a log (floating in the water.The
current was washing away everything on its course,and the girl was lucky as the log was stuck onto
something under the surface.But it wouldn't hold for long as the current was growing faster and
stronger.
Richard was running out of time.He had to pull the two out to the bank before they were washed
toward the edge of the waterfall,which was just meters away.His mind acted fast,and he ran back to
get something."Hold on!I'll be right back."he promised her.Moments later,Richard returned with a
long length of jungle vine (tied around his waist.
Richard jumped into the river and swam toward them.
Finally getting his breath back,Richard asked the girl how she ended up there.
