阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Biodiversity, the foundation of ecosystems and human societies, is crucial to maintaining essential ecological processes. However, it is declining globally, with Asia—a region rich in biodiversity—facing significant threats from human activities and climate change. These challenges are damaging ecosystems across the region, from mangroves (红树林) in the Sundarbans to Japan's northern islands.
周周练
Deforestation and Land Use Change
Deforestation and changes in land use are major threats to biodiversity. Increasing population pressures and agricultural expansion lead to the change of forests into farmland, urban areas, and industrial zones. Southeast Asia, particularly countries like Indonesia and Myanmar, experiences some of the world's highest deforestation rates as forests are cleared for palm oil plantations or infrastructure (基础设施) projects. This loss and breaking up of habitats endanger species by affecting their ability to feed and reproduce.

Pollution and the overuse of resources also degrade ecosystems. Industrial activities, such as Bangladesh's textile industry, release untreated wastewater into rivers, destroying aquatic habitats and harming downstream communities. Overfishing and illegal wildlife trade further endanger species, leading to ecosystem imbalances.
周周练
Climate Change and Extreme Weather
Climate change worsens these problems by increasing the frequency of cyclones, floods, and droughts. Seaside habitats like the Bay of Bengal's mangrove forests face severe problems due to rising sea levels, which cause saltwater spread and threaten both biodiversity and livelihoods. The IPCC warns that extreme weather is likely to increase in South and Southeast Asia.
周周练
Invasive Species and Disease
Invasive alien species pose another serious risk. For instance, the apple snail, introduced to Southeast Asia from South America, now affects 1.4 million hectares of rice fields in the Philippines, reducing crop yields and threatening native species.
Addressing these interconnected challenges requires coordinated global efforts, sustainable practices, and policies to protect Asia's rich biodiversity for future generations.

My husband Robert and I had volunteered to help build an irrigation (灌溉) system for bananas in Zambia. The Heart of Africa Mission is run by local Zambians, with a focus on community development. We were there to share our agricultural experience and knowledge with the African farmers.
周周练
We left snow-covered Alberta, Canada in January. We spent the next four weeks working side by side with the local Zambians in a banana plantation (种植园). The banana plantation would help make the Heart of Africa Mission self-supporting. It would also teach banana farming to the students there. Students would go on to teach others. It has done that and more. Through the jobs created, several families now have food, education for their children, and enough housing. The plantation is producing well and is a source of great pride for all who work there.
周周练
My husband worked hard at building the irrigation system. But the story he tells most often is of the young man who stopped us on one of our walks somewhere. He pointed to his bike, and laughing widely, told Robert, “Look, look, it still works.” Robert had repaired it for him. A bike in Zambia is like a truck in North America—necessary transportation for people and produce. Robert's small effort made a big difference in this man's life.

“We sure appreciate your sacrifice (牺牲),” our organizer often says. For us it was never a sacrifice, only an honor to have the chance to work in a place so far from our own, to be able to exchange ideas and thoughts. All this happened while living in a beautiful sunny country in the green of the rainy season, while at home in Alberta, the snow would cover the landscape for months. No, the volunteer work was never a sacrifice. It was only an honor.

If you are a bean, nut, and seed lover, nutritionists say that you are on a good diet as these are some of the healthiest foods. Locally, nutritionists say these are very much affordable sources of protein, fibre, iron, and vitamins that offer many health benefits.
周周练
Gerald Ruzindana, a nutrition and wellness expert, says protein is a vital nutrient that plays a key role in maintaining and repairing the body, and legumes (豆科植物) are high in amino acids (氨基酸), the building blocks of protein. He says that people should consider consuming legumes on a daily basis. “With their presence of proteins, consuming legumes helps heal and make new tissues in the body,” he says. Legumes are also linked to significantly lower risks of heart disease, high blood pressure according to studies.
周周练
“It's surprising how many people still don't understand the benefits that come with consuming legumes,” says Erick Musengimana, a nutritionist at Rwanda Diabetes Association. He adds that legumes provide fibre, protein, carbohydrate, B vitamins, and because they are plant foods, they are cholesterol-free as well, which makes them a perfect option. From studies, one serving of legumes, which is one-half cup, provides about 115 calories, 20g of carbohydrate, 7-9g of fibre, 8g of protein, and 1g of fat. It has also been established that legumes are an essential part of many healthy eating patterns, including the Mediterranean style of eating and vegetarian.
周周练
Along with being a highly nutritious food, evidence shows that legumes can play an important role in the prevention and management of a number of health conditions. Also, nutritionists say that a diet that regularly includes legumes may help with weight control, because of its fibre content and protein, as this means that it will slowly get digested after consumption, therefore, aiding in satiety.

A humorous remark at just the right time can go a long way. Benevolent (善意的) humour helps medical assistants (MAs) cope positively with their stressful working day, according to a new study by the Martin Luther University (MLU) and the Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training. The researchers surveyed more than 600 MAs and found that those who preferred light, well-intended humour were more satisfied with their work and received more positive feedback. Dark humour, such as sarcasm (嘲讽), was more likely to have disadvantages.
周周练
Medical assistants mostly work in primary healthcare, especially medical practices. In Germany, becoming an MA requires three years of vocational training. Their daily routine is highly demanding: they handle administrative tasks, take blood samples, and apply wound dressings. “Medical assistants are in very close contact with patients most of the day. They have significant responsibility and experience high stress,” says Julia Raceke, a doctoral researcher at MLU. While humour has long been known to help healthcare workers manage stress, less is understood about the impacts of different humour styles.
周周练
The researchers conducted an online survey of over 600 MAs to better understand the relationship between job satisfaction and humour styles. Participants shared their humour preferences and provided information on their workplace well-being and perceived competence.
周周练
Results indicated that those who preferred positive, benevolent humour were generally more satisfied with their jobs. These MAs also reported receiving more positive feedback and feeling that they made a greater difference at work. Surprisingly, not all forms of dark humour connected negatively with well-being—satire and irony showed no negative effects. However, cynicism and sarcasm were mostly harmful. Still, the researchers noted that occasional sarcasm among colleagues might help release frustration.
周周练
According to the researchers, humour is one of several factors influencing workplace well-being. Using humour consciously and appropriately can make patient interactions more pleasant. The findings may also help develop new training programs to enhance MAs' social and emotional skills through online tools.

D.Medical assistants prefer dark humour to benevolent humour.

Welcoming Tablet Integration in Classroom
While many may question the potential drawbacks concerning distractions and eyesight, I firmly support introducing tablets into our classrooms.
周周练
First, tablets unlock personalized self-learning. With adaptive learning apps, students can progress at their own pace—advanced learners dive deeper while others receive tailored support, making education more inclusive and efficient.

Last weekend, our school painting club was set to host a major exhibition on Monday. As the person responsible for the event, I was busy with the preparations. The room was filled with both excitement and pressure. I was carefully placing each painting in the right place, making sure they were perfectly spaced. At the same time, I was setting up the lighting to show the details of the artworks and preparing the informational cards that would go with each piece. The clock was running, and I had a mountain of tasks to complete.

In the middle of all this, I realized that Mike, who was supposed to help with the setup, was nowhere to be found. Just as I was about to call him to check where he was, my phone rang. It was Mike. “I'm really sorry for not being there on time,” he said, his voice filled with worry. “My mom suddenly fell ill, and I have to stay with her. I'm afraid that I won't be able to help today.”

Realizing the seriousness of his situation, I asked him to take care of his mother. I understood family always came first. However, there was a lot of work to be done, and Mike's absence left a big gap in our preparations. He was supposed to help with setting up the larger paintings and managing the guestbook. Other members of our team had their own tasks to complete. With no one else around at that moment, I was at a loss what to do. I couldn't hide my growing frustration.

As I stood there, trying to figure out a solution, my friend John happened to walk by. Noticing the worried look on my face, he came to my side and asked if something was wrong. I quickly explained the situation, telling him that Mike's sudden absence had messed up our schedule. John listened carefully and then said, “It sounds like you need someone to step in and take over some of the tasks. I can help out.” Hearing his words, the weight lifted off me.
