"I was here"-each generation has its own way of saying it.For today's Chinese youth
overseas,that feeling is no longer expressed by holding up a passport,but by holding up a
familiar textbook against the very landmarks printed on its cover.Now,let's take a closer look at
the landmarks that decorate these textbooks.
Big Ben
For most young Chinese,Big Ben and the red
地路
double-decker bus stand for Britain,as they appeared on
their school English textbook covers.Inspired by these
年回
childhood books,young Chinese initiated a "textbook
relay"by the Thames:They hid textbooks in hidden
spots and whoever found it could take photos beside
real Big Ben and write messages on book margins.
The Golden Gate Bridge
The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge

Waters,a 13-year-old boy from Lehi,Utah,became fascinated with 3D printing after
watching a YouTube channel about the technology.But he wanted to do more than simply make
cool things.He discovered MakeGood,a nonprofit that creates 3D-printed assistive devices for
people with disabilities,and found the perfect way to combine his passion with his desire to help
others.
His summer project was a custom wheelchair designed for a 21-month-old girl.Waters spent
roughly 300 hours designing,printing,testing,and constructing the chair.He also made sure it
included features that could make a real difference for the child and her family.The wheelchair
has pink highlights because pink is the girl's favorite color.It also includes a removable
cupholder and table,along with a space on the back where heavier medical equipment can be
stored.The footrest and headrest can be adjusted as she grows,while the straps()are made
from soft,flexible material for added comfort.
Waters said his favorite part of 3D printing is putting all the individual pieces together,and
this project gave him plenty of that.He also credits his family for supporting him throughout the
process and helping him work through his ideas.
His grandmother,Charlotte Waters,hopes the experience will stay with him long after the
wheelchair is delivered."We hope he always remembers that the greatest legacy anyone can
leave is to make someone else's life better,"she said."His age does not define his ability to make
a difference.His character does."
Waters hopes to pursue "something techie"when he grows up and plans to continue
developing his 3D printing skills so he can help even more people in the future.

El Ninos(厄尔尼诺),which are a temporary warming of parts of the equatorial Pacific,.
affect weather worldwide and increase extreme events,including heat waves,floods and
droughts,costing trillions in damage.A new study suggests that El Nifos,the natural climatic
chaos agent that occurs regularly and raises global temperatures,are getting stronger because of
human-caused climate change.
El Ninos are more than 36%stronger than they were before the industrial age began in the
mid-1800s,according to a study in Science.In the last 40 years alone,they have jumped 16%,
showing that the increase is speeding up.The findings come as a strong El Nifo that formed a
couple months ago is forecast to be the biggest on record in coming months.
"That's important because strong EI Ninos have much stronger impacts on climate hazards
and extremes worldwide,"said lead author Julia Cole.Her study looks back at El Nifios going
back 900 years or so.Cole's team took a novel approach by analyzing 29 coral fossils from the
Galapagos Islands,with the oldest from around year 1100.By measuring proportions of calcium
and other elements and different forms of oxygen,they calculated seawater temperatures.The
temperature curve looks like a hockey stick,consistent with global warming.
An El Nino's strength is determined by measuring water temperature in a region of the
central Pacific and comparing a three-month average to normal.The most recent weekly figure is
at 2.7 degrees Celsius above normal and is expected to keep growing for another two to four
months.Scientists have long theorized that global warming would strengthen El Ninos,but
observational records only go back about 75 years,previously too incomplete to show a trend.
The new finding has caused disagreement.Some experts regard coral records as trustworthy
proof that El Niiios grow stronger as the planet warms.Critics,however,argue that the chemical
signals in corals reflect general ocean warming instead of stronger El Nino cycles,and recent
local data fails to back up the claim.Cole notes that natural ups-and-downs between massive and
mild El Nifos may distort (short-term statistics.
Despite the academic argument,all scientists reach one agreement:we must cut fossil-fuel
use,since no simple solution exists to weaken destructive El Ninos in the future.
28.What does the new Science study find about El Ninos?
A.They are gaining intensity.
B.They occur more frequently.
C.They give rise to most global disasters.
D They are unrelated to natural climate shifts.

29.What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A.The research background.
B.The research process.
C.The research significance.
D.The research objective.
30.What is the major argument against the study?
A.El Ninos have stayed unchanged for centuries.
B.Local data is more trustworthy than fossil data.
C.Coral fossils cannot reflect ancient ocean conditions.
D.The study mistakes ocean warming for El Nino change.
31.What is the main purpose of the last paragraph?
A.To sound an alarm.
B.To offer a solution.
C.To present a finding.
D,To clarify a debate.

In recent years,we've have witnessed a return of interest in products and culture from
before the internet,as shown by rising sales of vinyl records,CDs,books,and board games.
While one might assume these trends are primarily driven by middle-aged and older adults
looking to revisit their youth,young people-particularly Gen Z-are a major force behind this
retro revival(复古复兴).
To understand the psychology behind this phenomenon,researchers at the Human
Flourishing Lab partnered with a cultural insights agency.Their analysis revealed that Gen Z isn't
just passively consuming historical nostalgia();they are actively mining the past to enrich
their lives and plan for the future.For instance,one social media user,expressed a desire to create
physical photo albums to share with visitors,just as previous generations did.Their interest in
old-school technology appears to be driven,in part,by a desire to dial back their digital
engagement and foster a greater appreciation for offline living.
To measure these observations,the team subsequently conducted a nationally representative
survey of over 2,000 U.S.adults.We found that most Gen Z adults feel nostalgic for eras before
they were born (68%),are attracted to their media,styles,hobbies,and traditions (73%),and
believe that new technologies should incorporate their ideas and design elements (78%).
Moreover,about two-thirds of Gen Z report that exploring past eras helps them deal with stress
about modern life (65%)or anxiety about the future (66%).
This phenomenon is not unique to Gen Z.Millennials and Gen Xers also report significant
levels of historical nostalgia,while older generations show less interest in eras that before them.
What distinguishes Gen Z,however,is that those who grew up with smartphones and social
media are increasingly curious about what came before the digital revolution.
Rather than signaling a retreat from technology,Gen Z's embrace of historical nostalgia
appears to reflect a more thoughtful and active approach to digital living.
32.What can we learn about the retro revival?
A.Older adults lead the new trend.
B.Young generations fuel it greatly
C Its products have seen declining sales.
It mainly involves e-books and games.

33.What does the underlined word"dial back"in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Maintain.
B.Increase.
C.Reduce.
D.Understand.
34.What can be inferred from the survey results?
A.73%show preference for new technology.
B.68%attach less attention to the past eras.
C.Nostalgia relieves Gen Z's unease.
D.Nostalgia brings about new challenges.
35.Which of the following best describes Gen Z according to the passage?
A.Mindful.
B.Passive.
C.Obsessive.
D.Trendy.

health metrics like steps,sleep patterns,and stress levels.These tools gathered data and
interpreted it to provide users with insights on progress.
Another critical development was the introduction of virtual personal trainers.Powered by
Al,these trainers could adapt workouts in real time,pushing users when they detected higher
energy levels or lowering the intensity when necessary.39.
The journey is a tale of innovation and evolution.Today,AI in digital fitness has reached a
new level.It can predict injuries by analyzing movement patterns.It also recommends exercises
to prevent them.40.This progression,from simple tracking to predictive coaching,shows
AI's impact on fitness.It has turned the industry into one that is more interactive,personalized,
and safer.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Last summer,a disastrous wildfire swept through our neighborhood in Los Angeles,
destroying our house and thousands of others.My husband,our two children-Rummy,14,and
Willa,12-and I lost almost everything.
Months later,we returned to see what was left.The neighborhood lay flat and empty.Only
chimneys,walls,and our strangely surviving garage remained.Burnt trees stood like ghosts.
There were no dogs,hardly any birds.People wander silently down the middle of the empty
streets.
For my children,the loss was terrible-not just our home,but the trees they had climbed,
their favorite restaurants,their friends'houses.They became quiet and sad.I worried about how
they would ever get through this.
Then an image came to me:white-and-yellow daisies covering the blackened hills.I
remembered Miss Rumphius,a children's book about a woman who scattered flower seeds
everywhere she went.An idea struck me.I told the kids,"What if we spread wildflower seeds in
the ruined places?We could bring color back."
We decided to give it a try.If it worked,maybe we could share the idea with others in the
community who were also struggling to find hope.I found a simple recipe for "seed
bombs"-balls made of seeds,soil,and clay.In the yard of our rental house,we made our first set
of seed balls.It was messy but fun.Rolling the sticky mixture between our hands felt strangely
relaxing.We dried them carefully,wondering if anything would actually grow.
On a cloudy summer day,we returned to our old address.The kids stood on the brick
doorstep-the only thing left of our front door-and threw seed bombs into the empty space.
Then we climbed down into the hole that had been our living room,where we had spent every
Christmas.We placed a pile of seed bombs on the bare ground and crushed them with our boots,
right where the hearth(炉灶)used to be.
We waited,hoping for rain to come soon so that the seeds could sprout )
