At The Rachael Ray Foundation (RRF), we’re pretty big animal lovers. As a part of our work, we supply a wide variety of organizations that do good for animals, from rescue to care and more. Get to know a few of them and the work we do together.
Pittsburgh Aviation Animal Rescue Team
RRF helped enable Pittsburgh Aviation Animal Rescue Team (PAART) to purchase a new and bigger plane for its rescue missions which bring animals from danger to safety. Whether it be flying dogs in overcrowded shelters to new homes, saving animals caught in the path of natural disasters, or bringing supplies to shelters in need, the brave PAART pilots are always ready to help.
National Disaster Search Dog Foundation
National Disaster Search Dog Foundation (SDF) works to find and train shelter dogs who have the talent and drive to become search and rescue animals. RRF supports SDF’s efforts to identify and transform rescued dogs into rescuers, to provide lifetime care for these dogs and to find homes for all dogs who enter the SDF training program.
Rachael Ray Save Them All Grants
This is a program administered by Best Friends Animal Society (BFAS) to support Best Friends’ network partners in their lifesaving efforts. The money has been awarded to organizations across the country to fund initiatives such as adoption drives and shelter intake prevention efforts.
North Shore Animal League America Disaster Relief Grants

It was just after 17:00 on a mid-September evening at a historical Church in Harlem, New York City Mostly the low-income black neighborhood sat at dining tables. In front of them was a menu listing three courses, which they only saw on TV. Each dish was prepared with “leftover” ingredients (食材), offered free of charge and placed alongside a blue card that read “you are loved” in hand-written script.
This is one of 14 community centers created around the world in cities like Milan, Paris, Mérida, Lima, Sydney and now New York through three-Michelin starred chef Massimo Bottura’s Food for Soul project. He started the project in 2016 with his wife, Lara Gilmore, to help fight the global problem of food waste by using ingredients that might otherwise be thrown away by suppliers and to give socially and economically vulnerable people access to high quality meals.
Partnering with architects, artists and community leaders, the project is transforming spaces, which are not fully taken advantage of, such as churches and even a historical home into intentionally designed cultural centers equipped with kitchens, dining rooms and other facilities that help create a sense of well-being, connection and inclusion.
When I asked Bottura why he created such thoughtful meals within beautifully appointed spaces for the low-income, he told me that everyone deserves respect and beauty, and of course, healthy food. “They come in and are completely lost because they’re not used to coming into beautiful places like this. But once they’re here, they realize that this place is their place. It’s not my place,” he said.
Bottura’s philosophy is one that comes from the heart. T-shirts worn by volunteers at his community centers say “cooking is an act of love”, and he approaches the food served there with as much care as he does at his restaurants, probably even more, since the diners are extremely stressed and need healthy food to feel better. Bottura insists that it’s important to change the language around the food served in his community centers.
24. Why does the author describe such a scene in the first paragraph
A. To introduce Bottura’s project.
B. To show the appeal of the dishes.
C. To emphasize the warm atmosphere.
D. To explain how the event is organized.
25. According to the text, which of the following statements is correct
A. The dining centers were all transformed from churches.
B. Bottura started the project to practice his cooking skills.
C. The diners felt quite at home when coming in the centers.
D. The low-income can enjoy high quality food at the center.
26. Which of the following best describes Massimo Bottura
A. Skilled and strict. B. Brave and influential.
C. Caring and considerate. D. Wealthy and humorous.
27. What fundamental philosophy does Massimo Bottura express
A. Respect and beauty are for all. B. Beautiful places inspire respect.
C. Cooking should be a profession. D. Community centers bring people together.
C
Proper questioning has become a lost art. The curious four-year-old asks a lot of questions—incessant streams of “Why ” and “Why not ” might sound familiar—but as we grow older, our questioning decreases. In a recent survey of more than 200 of our clients, we found that those with children estimated that 70-80% of their kids’ dialogues with others were comprised of questions. But those same clients said that only 15-25% of their own interactions consisted of questions. Why the drop off
Think back to your time growing up and in school. Chances are that you received the most recognition or reward when you got the correct answers. Later in life, that motivator continues. At work, we often reward those who answer questions, not those who ask them. Questioning conventional wisdom can even lead to being distanced, or considered a threat.
Because expectations for decision-making have gone from “get it done soon” to “get it done now” to “it should have been done yesterday”, we tend to jump to conclusions instead of asking more questions. And the unfortunate side effect of not asking enough questions is poor decision-making. That’s why it’s vital that we slow down and take the time to ask more and better questions. At best, we’ll arrive at better conclusions. At worst, we’ll avoid a lot of rework later on.
Aside from not speaking up enough, many professionals don’t think about how different types of questions can lead to different outcomes. We should lead a conversation by asking the right kinds of questions, based on the problem we’re trying to solve. In some cases, we’ll want to expand our view of the problem rather than keeping it narrowly focused. In others, we may want to challenge basic assumptions or confirm our understanding in order to feel more confident in our conclusions. Therefore, asking the right kinds of questions is what counts in achieving a goal.
28. What does the underlined word “incessant” in paragraph 1 most probably mean
A. Simple. B. Random. C. Constant. D. Annoying.
29. What accounts for the decline of questioning in adulthood
A. One poses a threat to the company if they ask questions.
B. Adults don’t get as many chances as they did in childhood.
C. Those who question popular beliefs are thought to be wise.
D. Those asking questions don’t always get positive feedback.
30. What can we infer from paragraph 3
A. Redoing is unavoidable despite thoughtful questions.
B. Decisions made in a hurry may turn out to be wrong.
C. Better questions can surely bring desirable outcomes.
D. More attention should be paid to making conclusions.
31. What might the author continue talking about
A. Proper questions that should be raised. B. Important goals that we are to achieve.
C. Right kinds of answers to the questions. D. Ways to expand our view of the problem.
D
Over 2,000 years ago, Baiae was the most magnificent resort town in Italy. Wealthy statesmen including Cicero and Caesar were once drawn to its natural springs. But over the centuries, volcanic activity submerged this playground of the Roman nobility, leaving half of it beneath the Mediterranean.
Today, Baiae is one of the world’s few underwater archaeological parks open to visitors wanting to explore the remains of the ancient Roman city. A protected marine area, the site needs to be monitored for damage caused by divers and environmental factors. However, explains Davidde, Italy’s national supervisor for underwater cultural heritage, “Communication underwater is challenging.”
Cabled systems are the most reliable, but they are difficult to maintain and cover a limited operational area. And wireless internet doesn’t work well in water, because of the way water interacts with electromagnetic waves.
So Davidde teamed up with a group of engineers led by Chiara Petrioli, a professor at Sapienza University. Petrioli’s team has developed a network of underwater wireless sensors capable of gathering environmental data and transmitting it to land in real time. The system relies on AI algorithms (算法) to constantly change the network protocol (网络协议). As the sea conditions change, the algorithms adjust the information path, allowing the signal to travel up to two kilometers and data to be sent between transmitters one kilometer apart.
At Baiae, underwater internet allows remote, continuous monitoring of environmental conditions. Besides, it allows divers to communicate with one another and with colleagues above the surface, who can also use the technology to locate them with a high degree of accuracy.
Davidde anticipates that the network will be available to tourists visiting the archaeological site in the coming months. As they swim over the ruins, visitors will use waterproof smart tablets to communicate and to view 3D reconstructions of the ruins.
“Underwater internet has made monitoring of the archaeological site simpler and more efficient,” says Davidde, “At the same time, we can offer the public a new, interactive way to explore the underwater park.”
32. What do we know about Baiae
A. It was noted for natural springs. B. It is a playground for sports lovers.
C. It was destroyed by human activity. D. It is not open to adventurous visitors.
33. What is the third paragraph mainly about
A. Applications of underwater internet.
B. Different types of underwater network.
C. Difficulties of underwater communication.
D. Conditions of the underwater environment.
34. What is the underwater network capable of doing at present
A. Reconstructing the ruins of the underwater park.
B. Making it easier to monitor archaeological sites.
C. Bringing more visitors to submerged Roman city.
D. Only allowing divers to communicate underwater.
35. What is the purpose of this text
A. To explain underwater communication.
B. To analyze the effect of climate change.
C. To introduce a new underwater network.
D. To attract more visitors to explore Baiae.

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。
The perfect moment to apologize is the moment you realize you’ve done something wrong. 36 But when it comes to our own mistakes, we often try to postpone apologizing or avoid it altogether by lying or making excuses for our actions.
Apologizing is seldom comfortable or easy. To be effective, most apologies need to contain the following elements:
37
Start by describing exactly what you did wrong, without avoiding the worst truths. Once the facts are out, admit that your behavior broke a moral rule, and, as a result, you’re in the wrong. Accept responsibility.
An explanation
A truthful explanation is your chance to rebuild a strong, peaceful relationship. By contrast, excuses are made to avoid taking responsibility. Leave them out of your apology.
Expressions of your sincere regret
Anyone who has been on the receiving end of the comment “I’m sorry you feel that way” knows the difference between sincere regret and an attempt to avoid responsibility for bad behavior. 38
Reparations for damage
39 Often there will be nothing tangible to repair. Hearts and relationships are broken more often than objects. In such cases, your efforts should focus on restoring the other person’s dignity.
An apology is the end of our struggle with history. From this truthful place we are free to move forward, whether or not we are forgiven. 40 But it shows that we are willing to be honest about our imperfections and determined in our efforts to do better.
A. Ways for apologizing
B. Full admission of the offence
C. No one likes to be put on the spot
D. Apologizing doesn’t make us perfect.
E. An apology includes real repair work: not just saying “I’m sorry”.
F. You are highly unlikely to be forgiven if you apologize without regret.
G. This seems obvious when we are thinking about someone else’s faults.

第二节（满分25分）
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。
One year ago, when we were in the fifth grade, a new classmate named Jack joined us. He was often late for class and had a strange smell on him, which made the girls not want to be “neighbours” with him, let alone sit next to him. It is said that once, a naughty boy curiously opened his backpack and many crushed soda cans and empty drink bottles that we usually throw into the trash fell out. Therefore, the boys in our class mocked (嘲笑) him as the “trash king”.
Later, during a class meeting, our teacher, Ms. Zhang, told us about his story of using garbage to make inventions. It turns out that Jack is not an ordinary elementary school student, but a “garbage-inspired inventor” who has won the city invention award. According to Ms. Zhang, most of his inventions were picked up from garbage dumps (堆). During that class meeting, Jack showed us his invention of a “domestic wastewater separation system”.
Afterwards, some of us became deeply interested in these small inventions and started to admire Jack’s way of “picking up trash”. We even joined him in picking up trash on weekends and during holidays. From then on, we no longer called him the “trash king”. Instead, we formed a group of five boys and actively searched for usable materials in various garbage dumps around the city. Under Jack’s guidance, we learned that there are many uses for seemingly useless trash. Once, we stayed at school to process the collected materials. Jack mentioned that he was facing a problem with his latest invention—a small cart (手推车/手拉车) for buying vegetables that needed to be lightweight. All other materials were solved except for the wheels. How could we find a suitable material for the wheels We racked our brains (绞尽脑汁) and came up with different ideas, such as using soda cans or taking off the wheels from suitcases. However, Jack reminded us that our group should focus on making inventions from waste rather than causing damage to create them. We were all deep in thought.

When I got home and drank a bottle of water, I suddenly had an idea. What if we could use bottle caps as wheels for Jack’s vegetable cart It seemed like a simple solution, but it could work if we found enough bottle caps. Excited, I shared my idea with the group the next day. Jack’s eyes lit up with enthusiasm as he realized the potential of this suggestion. We immediately set out to collect as many bottle caps as we could find, scouring not only the garbage dumps but also asking friends and family to save them for us.
Finally, we collected enough bottle caps and fixed them as wheels on his vegetable cart. It was a moment of triumph for all of us, seeing our collective efforts and creativity come to fruition. The cart rolled smoothly, and we celebrated our success with high-fives and laughter. This experience taught us the power of collaboration, innovation, and looking beyond the surface of things. Inspired by Jack’s ingenuity, our group continued to explore ways to repurpose waste, knowing that small actions could lead to big changes in our community and beyond.

M: Did you attend the lecture on history given by Prof. Garcia yesterday
W: No, I visited my grandfather. The doctor asked him to stay in the hospital for observation for a week.
M: I wish he would fully recover soon.
W: Thanks. I heard some students claimed they didn’t understand some difficult points in the lecture. How did you find it
M: Well, the lecture was not that hard. It was so attractive that I didn’t hear the bell ring.
W: Could I borrow your notes
M: Oh, don’t you know Prof, Garcia has put the video of his lecture on the website
W: Really Great. I’ll watch it this evening. Hmm... Maybe tomorrow we can discuss about the lecture in class for further understanding of it.
M: Alright. Oh, how hot it is! I’m so thirsty. There is a lemonade stand. I’ll buy you a glass of lemonade.

W: Excuse me. May I see the manager of your store
M: I’m the manager. How can I help you
W: Great. I’m interested in the job advertised on your website. I’m coming to see if there is any opportunity available for me.
M: Yes. And we also put an ad in the local newspaper. Take a seat, please. Would you like to be a shop assistant or a cashier
W: I worked part-time in a small department store during my summer vacation last year. So I prefer doing the work of a shop assistant.
M: All right. Now we really need some people to work from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on weekdays. But I’m not sure if you are qualified for the job. Since most of our customers are foreigners, competence of good communication in English is necessary here.
W: I’ve been learning English for almost 5 years and I’ve made some foreign friends during the period of learning English. And I’ll have no difficulty starting from 5:00 p.m..
M: Good. There is only one thing to be settled. 20 yuan an hour is the maximum we can pay you.
TEXT 10
M: There are studies showing that sleeping is not simply a matter of giving the body a rest. The body is self-repairing and self-recovering to a degree no matter a person is sleeping or not. In fact, a basic amount of movement occurs during sleep in order to make muscle active. There are also two other researches about this. First, a research shows that while there is a change in the brain during sleep, there is no evidence that the total amount of activities of the brain is any less. The second factor is more interesting. Some years ago an experiment dealing with the recording of eye-movements during sleep showed that the average human’s sleep cycle is with eye-movements, some slow, others rapid. People woken during the periods of eye-movements generally reported that they had been dreaming. When woken at other times they reported no dreams. If one group of people were disturbed from their eye-movement sleep for several nights on end, and another group were disturbed for an equal period of time but when they were no eye-movements, the first group began to show some abnormal behaviors while the others seemed unaffected. All this suggests that it was not the disturbance of sleep that mattered, but the disturbance of dreaming.

At The Rachael Ray Foundation (RRF), we’re pretty big animal lovers. As a part of our work, we supply a wide variety of organizations that do good for animals, from rescue to care and more. Get to know a few of them and the work we do together.
Pittsburgh Aviation Animal Rescue Team
RRF helped enable Pittsburgh Aviation Animal Rescue Team (PAART) to purchase a new and bigger plane for its rescue missions which bring animals from danger to safety. Whether it be flying dogs in overcrowded shelters to new homes, saving animals caught in the path of natural disasters, or bringing supplies to shelters in need, the brave PAART pilots are always ready to help.
National Disaster Search Dog Foundation
National Disaster Search Dog Foundation (SDF) works to find and train shelter dogs who have the talent and drive to become search and rescue animals. RRF supports SDF’s efforts to identify and transform rescued dogs into rescuers, to provide lifetime care for these dogs and to find homes for all dogs who enter the SDF training program.
Rachael Ray Save Them All Grants
This is a program administered by Best Friends Animal Society (BFAS) to support Best Friends’ network partners in their lifesaving efforts. The money has been awarded to organizations across the country to fund initiatives such as adoption drives and shelter intake prevention efforts.
North Shore Animal League America Disaster Relief Grants

It was just after 17:00 on a mid-September evening at a historical Church in Harlem, New York City Mostly the low-income black neighborhood sat at dining tables. In front of them was a menu listing three courses, which they only saw on TV. Each dish was prepared with “leftover” ingredients (食材), offered free of charge and placed alongside a blue card that read “you are loved” in hand-written script.
This is one of 14 community centers created around the world in cities like Milan, Paris, Mérida, Lima, Sydney and now New York through three-Michelin starred chef Massimo Bottura’s Food for Soul project. He started the project in 2016 with his wife, Lara Gilmore, to help fight the global problem of food waste by using ingredients that might otherwise be thrown away by suppliers and to give socially and economically vulnerable people access to high quality meals.
Partnering with architects, artists and community leaders, the project is transforming spaces, which are not fully taken advantage of, such as churches and even a historical home into intentionally designed cultural centers equipped with kitchens, dining rooms and other facilities that help create a sense of well-being, connection and inclusion.
When I asked Bottura why he created such thoughtful meals within beautifully appointed spaces for the low-income, he told me that everyone deserves respect and beauty, and of course, healthy food. “They come in and are completely lost because they’re not used to coming into beautiful places like this. But once they’re here, they realize that this place is their place. It’s not my place,” he said.
Bottura’s philosophy is one that comes from the heart. T-shirts worn by volunteers at his community centers say “cooking is an act of love”, and he approaches the food served there with as much care as he does at his restaurants, probably even more, since the diners are extremely stressed and need healthy food to feel better. Bottura insists that it’s important to change the language around the food served in his community centers.
24. Why does the author describe such a scene in the first paragraph
A. To introduce Bottura’s project.
B. To show the appeal of the dishes.
C. To emphasize the warm atmosphere.
D. To explain how the event is organized.
25. According to the text, which of the following statements is correct
A. The dining centers were all transformed from churches.
B. Bottura started the project to practice his cooking skills.
C. The diners felt quite at home when coming in the centers.
D. The low-income can enjoy high quality food at the center.
26. Which of the following best describes Massimo Bottura
A. Skilled and strict. B. Brave and influential.
C. Caring and considerate. D. Wealthy and humorous.
27. What fundamental philosophy does Massimo Bottura express
A. Respect and beauty are for all. B. Beautiful places inspire respect.
C. Cooking should be a profession. D. Community centers bring people together.
C
Proper questioning has become a lost art. The curious four-year-old asks a lot of questions—incessant streams of “Why ” and “Why not ” might sound familiar—but as we grow older, our questioning decreases. In a recent survey of more than 200 of our clients, we found that those with children estimated that 70-80% of their kids’ dialogues with others were comprised of questions. But those same clients said that only 15-25% of their own interactions consisted of questions. Why the drop off
Think back to your time growing up and in school. Chances are that you received the most recognition or reward when you got the correct answers. Later in life, that motivator continues. At work, we often reward those who answer questions, not those who ask them. Questioning conventional wisdom can even lead to being distanced, or considered a threat.
Because expectations for decision-making have gone from “get it done soon” to “get it done now” to “it should have been done yesterday”, we tend to jump to conclusions instead of asking more questions. And the unfortunate side effect of not asking enough questions is poor decision-making. That’s why it’s vital that we slow down and take the time to ask more and better questions. At best, we’ll arrive at better conclusions. At worst, we’ll avoid a lot of rework later on.
Aside from not speaking up enough, many professionals don’t think about how different types of questions can lead to different outcomes. We should lead a conversation by asking the right kinds of questions, based on the problem we’re trying to solve. In some cases, we’ll want to expand our view of the problem rather than keeping it narrowly focused. In others, we may want to challenge basic assumptions or confirm our understanding in order to feel more confident in our conclusions. Therefore, asking the right kinds of questions is what counts in achieving a goal.
28. What does the underlined word “incessant” in paragraph 1 most probably mean
A. Simple. B. Random. C. Constant. D. Annoying.
29. What accounts for the decline of questioning in adulthood
A. One poses a threat to the company if they ask questions.
B. Adults don’t get as many chances as they did in childhood.
C. Those who question popular beliefs are thought to be wise.
D. Those asking questions don’t always get positive feedback.
30. What can we infer from paragraph 3
A. Redoing is unavoidable despite thoughtful questions.
B. Decisions made in a hurry may turn out to be wrong.
C. Better questions can surely bring desirable outcomes.
D. More attention should be paid to making conclusions.
31. What might the author continue talking about
A. Proper questions that should be raised. B. Important goals that we are to achieve.
C. Right kinds of answers to the questions. D. Ways to expand our view of the problem.

Over 2,000 years ago, Baiae was the most magnificent resort town in Italy. Wealthy statesmen including Cicero and Caesar were once drawn to its natural springs. But over the centuries, volcanic activity submerged this playground of the Roman nobility, leaving half of it beneath the Mediterranean.
Today, Baiae is one of the world’s few underwater archaeological parks open to visitors wanting to explore the remains of the ancient Roman city. A protected marine area, the site needs to be monitored for damage caused by divers and environmental factors. However, explains Davidde, Italy’s national supervisor for underwater cultural heritage, “Communication underwater is challenging.”
Cabled systems are the most reliable, but they are difficult to maintain and cover a limited operational area. And wireless internet doesn’t work well in water, because of the way water interacts with electromagnetic waves.
So Davidde teamed up with a group of engineers led by Chiara Petrioli, a professor at Sapienza University. Petrioli’s team has developed a network of underwater wireless sensors capable of gathering environmental data and transmitting it to land in real time. The system relies on AI algorithms (算法) to constantly change the network protocol (网络协议). As the sea conditions change, the algorithms adjust the information path, allowing the signal to travel up to two kilometers and data to be sent between transmitters one kilometer apart.
At Baiae, underwater internet allows remote, continuous monitoring of environmental conditions. Besides, it allows divers to communicate with one another and with colleagues above the surface, who can also use the technology to locate them with a high degree of accuracy.
Davidde anticipates that the network will be available to tourists visiting the archaeological site in the coming months. As they swim over the ruins, visitors will use waterproof smart tablets to communicate and to view 3D reconstructions of the ruins.
“Underwater internet has made monitoring of the archaeological site simpler and more efficient,” says Davidde, “At the same time, we can offer the public a new, interactive way to explore the underwater park.”
32. What do we know about Baiae
A. It was noted for natural springs. B. It is a playground for sports lovers.
C. It was destroyed by human activity. D. It is not open to adventurous visitors.
33. What is the third paragraph mainly about
A. Applications of underwater internet.
B. Different types of underwater network.
C. Difficulties of underwater communication.
D. Conditions of the underwater environment.
34. What is the underwater network capable of doing at present
A. Reconstructing the ruins of the underwater park.
B. Making it easier to monitor archaeological sites.
C. Bringing more visitors to submerged Roman city.
D. Only allowing divers to communicate underwater.
35. What is the purpose of this text
A. To explain underwater communication.
B. To analyze the effect of climate change.
C. To introduce a new underwater network.
D. To attract more visitors to explore Baiae.

The perfect moment to apologize is the moment you realize you’ve done something wrong. 36 But when it comes to our own mistakes, we often try to postpone apologizing or avoid it altogether by lying or making excuses for our actions.
Apologizing is seldom comfortable or easy. To be effective, most apologies need to contain the following elements:
37
Start by describing exactly what you did wrong, without avoiding the worst truths. Once the facts are out, admit that your behavior broke a moral rule, and, as a result, you’re in the wrong. Accept responsibility.
An explanation
A truthful explanation is your chance to rebuild a strong, peaceful relationship. By contrast, excuses are made to avoid taking responsibility. Leave them out of your apology.
Expressions of your sincere regret
Anyone who has been on the receiving end of the comment “I’m sorry you feel that way” knows the difference between sincere regret and an attempt to avoid responsibility for bad behavior. 38
Reparations for damage
39 Often there will be nothing tangible to repair. Hearts and relationships are broken more often than objects. In such cases, your efforts should focus on restoring the other person’s dignity.
An apology is the end of our struggle with history. From this truthful place we are free to move forward, whether or not we are forgiven. 40 But it shows that we are willing to be honest about our imperfections and determined in our efforts to do better.
A. Ways for apologizing
B. Full admission of the offence
C. No one likes to be put on the spot
D. Apologizing doesn’t make us perfect.
E. An apology includes real repair work: not just saying “I’m sorry”.
F. You are highly unlikely to be forgiven if you apologize without regret.
G. This seems obvious when we are thinking about someone else’s faults.

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。
One year ago, when we were in the fifth grade, a new classmate named Jack joined us. He was often late for class and had a strange smell on him, which made the girls not want to be “neighbours” with him, let alone sit next to him. It is said that once, a naughty boy curiously opened his backpack and many crushed soda cans and empty drink bottles that we usually throw into the trash fell out. Therefore, the boys in our class mocked (嘲笑) him as the “trash king”.
Later, during a class meeting, our teacher, Ms. Zhang, told us about his story of using garbage to make inventions. It turns out that Jack is not an ordinary elementary school student, but a “garbage-inspired inventor” who has won the city invention award. According to Ms. Zhang, most of his inventions were picked up from garbage dumps (堆). During that class meeting, Jack showed us his invention of a “domestic wastewater separation system”.
Afterwards, some of us became deeply interested in these small inventions and started to admire Jack’s way of “picking up trash”. We even joined him in picking up trash on weekends and during holidays. From then on, we no longer called him the “trash king”. Instead, we formed a group of five boys and actively searched for usable materials in various garbage dumps around the city. Under Jack’s guidance, we learned that there are many uses for seemingly useless trash. Once, we stayed at school to process the collected materials. Jack mentioned that he was facing a problem with his latest invention—a small cart (手推车/手拉车) for buying vegetables that needed to be lightweight. All other materials were solved except for the wheels. How could we find a suitable material for the wheels We racked our brains (绞尽脑汁) and came up with different ideas, such as using soda cans or taking off the wheels from suitcases. However, Jack reminded us that our group should focus on making inventions from waste rather than causing damage to create them. We were all deep in thought.

When I got home and drank a bottle of water, I suddenly had an idea. What if we could use bottle caps as wheels for Jack’s vegetable cart It seemed like a simple solution, but it could work if we found enough bottle caps. Excited, I shared my idea with the group the next day. Jack’s eyes lit up with enthusiasm as he realized the potential of this suggestion. We immediately set out to collect as many bottle caps as we could find, scouring not only the garbage dumps but also asking friends and family to save them for us.
Finally, we collected enough bottle caps and fixed them as wheels on his vegetable cart. It was a moment of triumph for all of us, seeing our collective efforts and creativity come to fruition. The cart rolled smoothly, and we celebrated our success with high-fives and laughter. This experience taught us the power of collaboration, innovation, and looking beyond the surface of things. Inspired by Jack’s ingenuity, our group continued to explore ways to repurpose waste, knowing that small actions could lead to big changes in our community and beyond.

M: Good. There is only one thing to be settled. 20 yuan an hour is the maximum we can pay you.
TEXT 10
M: There are studies showing that sleeping is not simply a matter of giving the body a rest. The body is self-repairing and self-recovering to a degree no matter a person is sleeping or not. In fact, a basic amount of movement occurs during sleep in order to make muscle active. There are also two other researches about this. First, a research shows that while there is a change in the brain during sleep, there is no evidence that the total amount of activities of the brain is any less. The second factor is more interesting. Some years ago an experiment dealing with the recording of eye-movements during sleep showed that the average human’s sleep cycle is with eye-movements, some slow, others rapid. People woken during the periods of eye-movements generally reported that they had been dreaming. When woken at other times they reported no dreams. If one group of people were disturbed from their eye-movement sleep for several nights on end, and another group were disturbed for an equal period of time but when they were no eye-movements, the first group began to show some abnormal behaviors while the others seemed unaffected. All this suggests that it was not the disturbance of sleep that mattered, but the disturbance of dreaming.
