Things I’ve Learned From My First Year Of High School
I just finished my first year of high school, and it has been 11 different from middle school. High school
has brought me so many different experiences. Some I am grateful for, yet some have not been beneficial. However, all of them have taught me so many different things, and I would not have been able to 12 my first year of high school without them. The things I have learned have been so helpful to me and can also 13 to things outside of school.
1. You’re expected to demonstrate maturity and responsibility
High school teachers won’t 14 “hold your hand” as much as middle school teachers did. Your teachers may move faster through lessons. When you have questions or meet with 15 challenges, it’s important to speak up. If speaking up makes you nervous at first, you can start by using email to build your 16 level and confidence.
High school teachers enforce higher standards, and most don’t tolerate some of the behaviors that were acceptable in middle school. Again, the goal is to prepare you for college and real life. Even if the 17 seems tough at first, remember that you’re learning helpful and important life skills.
2. Find out who your true friends are
Genuine friends are friends that you can tell everything to and they will not tell anyone else without your permission. They are also there whenever you need them, whether that is to rant or you just need a shoulder to cry on. When you find your true friends, stick with them. The thing about friends is: quality over 18 .
To be honest, high school is not easy at first, but with time, you will get to appreciate and 19 everything around your experiences. The memory will never 20 , because it is the most memorable journey. I have learned so much during my first year of high school, and I am sure that I am going to learn a lot more.

The digital revolution has had a huge impact on every aspect of our society. For content creators, life looks nothing like it did just a couple of decades ago.

Video was only consumed in two ways: television or cinema. Nowadays, you’ll probably run out of fingers 22 how many video formats (格式) there are out there, let alone the number of platforms and devices on which video is played.

If, for example, you want to 23 a video website, the type of file you’ll need to use will most likely to be different from the one you’ll have to create for your social media accounts. In order to make this whole process a lot easier, we have put together a list of the most common
video formats and which ones you should use for each purpose.
So what’s the best video format
24 , there isn’t a cure-all when it comes to video sharing. The good thing is that it’s actually really easy to 25 between video formats. If you do so, be sure to always save the original file in order to avoid 26 of image quality due to file compression(压缩).
Here are three of the most common video uses and the 27 formats for each of them:
Social media: MP4 is supported by Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, IGTV, and YouTube. Facebook also 28 MOV, while YouTube accepts most video formats.
TV and computers: AVI, MOV, and MKV 29 the highest quality image which makes them great options for big screen streaming.

No museum in the United States is as famous as the Metropolitan Museum of Art(the Met), which is filled
with 51 from all over the world, including collections from Ancient Egypt and classical antiquity. Visiting “the Met” is an art 52 unlike any other, and like much in New York, it’s impossible to see all the museum has to offer in one day (or even two days, for that matter). If you’ve never been there, then you should visit its permanent collections (the first floor’s Greek and Roman art, 53 art and the second floor’s Islamic art exhibits are especially popular with travelers). If you have already 54 the Met a time or two, then plan your next trip around the semiannual exhibits by the Costume Institute, or head to The Met Cloisters, an offshoot museum that includes medieval Europe’s art and 55 located in Fort Tyron Park.
Travelers love the Met,so they call the facilities and artwork 56 . Many people 57 surfing the museum’s website to decide what you’d like to see ahead of your visit. You can also apply for a special guided tour for a more deep 58 of the museum’s content.
The museum is located at 1000 Fifth Ave., on the eastern perimeter of Central Park. You can visit the museum from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. daily, with extended hours on Friday and Saturday until 9 p.m. Suggested 59 to the Met is $25 for adults, $17 for seniors and $12 for students; kids younger than 12 can enter for free with a paying adult. You can purchase tickets 60 or in person. If you are a resident of New York state or a student in New York, New Jersey or Connecticut, the admission is “pay what you wish.”

Lin Wanqi, a 26-year-old resident of Shanghai, was among the earliest to try Luckin Coffee’s new Moutai-flavored latte. She was curious about how her beloved coffee tastes with Chinese liquor in it, 61 to sample this “young people’s first sip of Moutai”. “The aroma of the alcohol is very strong and is well blended with the milk,” Lin told.
The partnership between China’s top liquor maker Kweichow Moutai and domestic coffee chain Luckin Coffee has become both a hot topic and a moneymaker, selling 5.42 million cups and grossing (总共赚得) 100 million yuan just on Sept 4, the product’s 62 date, China Daily reported. The coffee drink, 63 with an iconic Moutai-themed label and containing less than 0.5 percent (alcohol by volume) of 53 degrees Moutai, is priced at 38 yuan, although consumers can get it for 19 yuan using coupons.
“I 64 the spirit of innovation of the two brands, and the spirit is also shared by young people,” said Lin.
In recent years, Moutai has embarked on various creative campaigns to 65 to younger customers, introducing products like Moutai ice cream, scented sachets (香囊) and canvas bags. “This partnership lets Moutai make its brand younger,” Li Honghui, a marketing director for drinks, also pointed out that such innovative cooperation can bring 66 to both brands. “Through partnerships, brands can share resources, expand the market, and bring more diversified products to consumers,”Li said.
In 2023, China’s brand partnership market is 67 to surpass a scale of 100 billion yuan and is projected to approach 300 billion yuan by 2025, according to China Quality Daily.
However, flawed partnerships may lead to negative consequences. Take the collaboration between Chinese coffee chain Manner and French luxury brand Louis Vuitton (LV), for example. Consumers could get a free LV canvas bag by buying at least two books in the coffee shop. The two books would cost at least 580 yuan. The campaign was harshly criticized for the high barrier of 68 to receive the gift and many people doubted whether it was worth the price.
Similarly, in July this year, milk tea brand Heytea and jewellery brand Chow Tai Fook jointly launched a peach-flavored drink, which was mocked by internet users as neither 69 nor tasty. They said that peaches had nothing to do with Chow Tai Fook, and that the drink was too sweet with not enough peaches. “It’s important to 70 the high quality of the products in these partnerships rather than merely generate hype (炒作),” Li said.

Workcations: The travel trend mixing work and play
“After working from home for over a year, I needed a change in atmosphere,” says Vedika Bhaia, a Kolkata-based marketing entrepreneur and content creator. Last summer, she and a friend went on a 15-day trip through India’s Parvati Valley, 91 the natural environment while balancing a full workload on a laptop.
Though she was used to working 92 , Bhaia says the ‘work-from-anywhere’ mentality (思维模式)created by the pandemic pushed her to take a trip that combined work and leisure. “I knew travelling would do 93 for my mental health. It would help me 94 the creative block I was having as well,” she says.
The popularity of workcations may seem to conflict with the firmly 95 idea that we should keep work and play apart – after all, better awareness of work-related mental health stressors has left us more conscious than ever of the importance of 96 boundaries between our professional and personal lives. Yet experts argue that the adaptability we’ve developed during the pandemic has 97 us well to enjoy a break that combines work and play. And given the benefits workers see in them – like more chances to explore new places while fulfilling our day-to-day responsibilities – workcations are likely to become a practice lasting well beyond the pandemic.
Of course, there may well be some people who prefer to commit fully to either work or play, rather than combine the two activities. Rachel Fu, professor of tourism, says that whether people enjoy the workcation experience will depend on “a variety of individual personalities and behavioural choices”; some may feel they are only on holiday if they are totally free from work, for example. But Fu suspects that many white-collar workers have 98 the skills needed to pull off workcations during the pandemic. “Our behaviours have been forced to change,” she says. “Home is school, home is where we work. We have all been trained to switch: ‘OK, now we have a Zoom meeting’. I think after the past two years, we can switch from one thing to the next very 99 . ”
Given the level of interest from workers now accustomed to staying productive in multiple environments, workcations look like a practice that’s here to stay. “As long as you deliver, many companies don’t care where you’re working from,” says Fu. Accommodating workers will be in companies’ interests; it’s already clear that 100 will be key to keeping workers, especially as the new generation of workers, in particular, value the ability to work from anywhere.

Danger in the desert
That day we were deep in Chile’s Atacama Desert. There the 101 could often be compared to Mars. Our team of four female microbiologists watched as a car full of curious men pulled up beside us. Because we were strangers in a(n) 102 place, our minds immediately jumped to ways we could protect ourselves. So, 103 , our Chilean fellow guide lifted the strong tool she’d been using to dig up plant roots. The rest of us tried to look braver than we felt.
We had come to this desert to conduct DNA studies on giant horsetails that somehow grow well in one of Earth’s driest places. We were searching for plants in the most remote locations, where they would be 104 by human activities such as mining and agriculture.
We’d been warned that the trip could be dangerous. Because we were traveling so far from fuel sources, we were told to take along a can of gas. Our destination was at the end of a(n) 105 single-lane dirt road lined with burned-out vehicles that had not successfully negotiated the steep downslope. Our sample site was near a village, and the people might not, we were told, 106 positively to us. We were instructed to report our travel plans at the nearest police station so that search parties would know where to look for us if we disappeared.
We had found the amazing plants and their bright green stocks 107 over our heads. They aroused the 108 of ancient wetland plants. The men approached as we finished collecting our samples. We waited tensely as a man 109 the car and walked toward us. To our surprise and relief, he politely invited us to visit their village—they wanted to show us a lovely church of which they were proud. That day, we learned about more than the microbiomes that help desert plants grow well. We also met a(n) 110 community who had likewise

Jenny Carter an NHS coordinator is an “extreme night owl,” one of an estimated 8.2% of the population whose natural inclination(倾向)is to fall asleep well after midnight. Left to her own devices, she’d prefer to go to bed around 3 a.m. and wake up about noon.
Why do night owls exist There is no single 111 accepted theory, but evolutionary biologists think that communities with more variation in chronotypes(睡眠类型)may have been more likely to survive.
Another theory is that variation is 112 how genetics works. Right from birth, our personal biological clocks are already 113 . Genetics establishes a person’s chronotype. Colin Espie, professor of sleep medicine at the University of Oxford, says this 114 differences in hair eye and skin color or height.
Natural night owls are 115 different from insomniacs or people who stay up until the early hours because of family or work circumstances. Being a night owl isn’t a problem.
But this isn’t always well understood. Jessica Batchelor is a medical writer who feels most productive at 11 p.m. “I can’t tell anyone when I went to sleep, woke up, showered or ate a meal without being 116 ,” she says “I struggle with feelings of guilt and shame.”
This mentality is rooted in our agrarian(耕地的)past when farm work had to begin at dawn.
Our culture mistakenly associates sleeping little and rising early with 117 . It is often extolled(颂扬)as a habit of successful people: for instance in the 118 with Margaret Thatcher’s four-hour rest, or articles about “sleepless-elite” CEOs who start their days with a 4 a.m. jog.
Actually, there is nothing wrong with staying up late as long as you’re getting a good amount of sleep every night; 119 , early risers have no special biological advantage. What research has not disproved, however, is that morning people tend to get more done.
The productivity expert Laura Vanderkam 120 that people should consider switching their schedule not because it’s necessarily better but because it’s practical.
Waking up earlier to work out, make headway on a creative project or enjoy a stress-free cup of coffee can help make it easier to accomplish more without sacrificing time for yourself.

Get rid of mosquitoes, but how

Mosquitoes need less than a centimeter of water to lay eggs. A female can lay hundreds of eggs at a time. So, check your 125 to see if there is anywhere that collects water. Water can easily collect in small 126 —a child’s toy, a trash can lid, or a cooking pot.
Even if the amount of standing water seems small, 127 it. Make holes in the bottoms of containers that can hold 128 water. Other standing water such as in ponds and bird baths can be 129 with chemicals.
There are other things you can do to protect yourself. Put screens in your doors and windows or keep them closed. And cut down on time spent outdoors between the early evening and the early morning. Mosquitoes are most 130 during that time.

Things I’ve Learned From My First Year Of High School
I just finished my first year of high school, and it has been 11 different from middle school. High school has brought me so many different experiences. Some I am grateful for, yet some have not been beneficial. However, all of them have taught me so many different things, and I would not have been able to 12 my first year of high school without them. The things I have learned have been so helpful to me and can also 13 to things outside of school.
1. You’re expected to demonstrate maturity and responsibility
High school teachers won’t 14 “hold your hand” as much as middle school teachers did. Your teachers may move faster through lessons. When you have questions or meet with 15 challenges, it’s important to speak up. If speaking up makes you nervous at first, you can start by using email to build your 16 level and confidence.
High school teachers enforce higher standards, and most don’t tolerate some of the behaviors that were acceptable in middle school. Again, the goal is to prepare you for college and real life. Even if the 17 seems tough at first, remember that you’re learning helpful and important life skills.
2. Find out who your true friends are
Genuine friends are friends that you can tell everything to and they will not tell anyone else without your permission. They are also there whenever you need them, whether that is to rant or you just need a shoulder to cry on. When you find your true friends, stick with them. The thing about friends is: quality over 18 .
To be honest, high school is not easy at first, but with time, you will get to appreciate and 19 everything around your experiences. The memory will never 20 , because it is the most memorable journey. I have learned so much during my first year of high school, and I am sure that I am going to learn a lot more.

The digital revolution has had a huge impact on every aspect of our society. For content creators, life looks nothing like it did just a couple of decades ago. Back then, all you had to do is to take the tape off the camera and put it on your 21 player. At most, you had to read an article to understand the difference between HS and Betamax. Video was only consumed in two ways: television or cinema. Nowadays, you’ll probably run out of fingers 22 how many video formats (格式) there are out there, let alone the number of platforms and devices on which video is played.
Understanding what each video format is and does is no child’s play. In fact, it is a “must” if you want your
work to look the best regardless of where and how it is played. If, for example, you want to 23 a video website, the type of file you’ll need to use will most likely to be different from the one you’ll have to create for your social media accounts. In order to make this whole process a lot easier, we have put together a list of the most common video formats and which ones you should use for each purpose.
So what’s the best video format
24 , there isn’t a cure-all when it comes to video sharing. The good thing is that it’s actually really easy to 25 between video formats. If you do so, be sure to always save the original file in order to avoid 26 of image quality due to file compression(压缩).
Here are three of the most common video uses and the 27 formats for each of them:
Social media: MP4 is supported by Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, IGTV, and YouTube. Facebook also 28 MOV, while YouTube accepts most video formats.
TV and computers: AVI, MOV, and MKV 29 the highest quality image which makes them great options for big screen streaming.
Website: WEBM and HTML5 are the video formats meant for your account. However, using tools such as Wix Video will allow you to work with almost any file 30 , as well as offer you much more control over your work.

Perri Klass and her mother, Sheil a Solomon Klass, both gifted professional writers, prove to be ideal co-writers as they examine their decades of motherhood, daughterhood, and the wonderful ways their lives have overlapped(重叠).
Perri notes with 41 how closely her own life has mirrored her mother’s: both have fulltime careers; both have published books, articles, and stories; each has three children; they both love to read. They also love to travel ---- in fact, they often take trips together. But in truth, the harder they look at their lives, the more they acknowledge their big 42 in circumstance and basic nature.
A child of the Depression(大萧条), Sheil a was raised in Brooklyn by parents who considered 43 a luxury for girls. Starting with her college education, she has fought for everything she’s ever accomplished. Perri, on the other hand, grew up 44 in the New Jersey suburbs of the1960s and 1970s. For Sheila, wasting time or money is a crime, and luxury is 45 while Perri enjoys the occasional small luxury, but has not been successful at trying to persuade her mother into enjoying even the tiniest thing she likes.
Each writing in her own unmistakable voice, Perri and Sheil a take turns 46 the joys and pains, the love and bitterness, the minor troubles and lasting respect that have always bonded them together. Sheil a describes the adventure of giving birth to Perri in a tiny town in Trinidad where her husband was doing 47 fieldwork. Perri admits that she can’t sort out all the mess in the households, even though she knows it drives her mother crazy. Together they compare thoughts on bringing up children and working, admit long-hidden sorrows, and enjoy precious memories.
Looking deep into the lives they have lived 48 and together, Perri and Sheil a tell their mother-daughter story with honesty, humor, enthusiasm, and admiration for each other. A written 49 in two voices, Every Mother Is a Daughter is a duet(二重奏) that produces a deep, strong sound with the experiences that all mothers and daughters will 50 .

No museum in the United States is as famous as the Metropolitan Museum of Art(the Met), which is filled with 51 from all over the world, including collections from Ancient Egypt and classical antiquity. Visiting “the Met” is an art 52 unlike any other, and like much in New York, it’s impossible to see all the museum has to offer in one day (or even two days, for that matter). If you’ve never been there, then you should visit its permanent collections (the first floor’s Greek and Roman art, 53 art and the second floor’s Islamic art exhibits are especially popular with travelers). If you have already 54 the Met a time or two, then plan your next trip around the semiannual exhibits by the Costume Institute, or head to The Met Cloisters, an offshoot museum that includes medieval Europe’s art and 55 located in Fort Tyron Park.
Travelers love the Met,so they call the facilities and artwork 56 . Many people 57 surfing the museum’s website to decide what you’d like to see ahead of your visit. You can also apply for a special guided tour for a more deep 58 of the museum’s content.
The museum is located at 1000 Fifth Ave., on the eastern perimeter of Central Park. You can visit the museum from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. daily, with extended hours on Friday and Saturday until 9 p.m. Suggested 59 to the Met is $25 for adults, $17 for seniors and $12 for students; kids younger than 12 can enter for free with a paying adult. You can purchase tickets 60 or in person. If you are a resident of New York state or a student in New York, New Jersey or Connecticut, the admission is “pay what you wish.”

Lin Wanqi, a 26-year-old resident of Shanghai, was among the earliest to try Luckin Coffee’s new Moutai-
flavored latte. She was curious about how her beloved coffee tastes with Chinese liquor in it, 61 to sample this “young people’s first sip of Moutai”. “The aroma of the alcohol is very strong and is well blended with the milk,” Lin told.
The partnership between China’s top liquor maker Kweichow Moutai and domestic coffee chain Luckin Coffee has become both a hot topic and a moneymaker, selling 5.42 million cups and grossing (总共赚得) 100 million yuan just on Sept 4, the product’s 62 date, China Daily reported. The coffee drink, 63 with an iconic Moutai-themed label and containing less than 0.5 percent (alcohol by volume) of 53 degrees Moutai, is priced at 38 yuan, although consumers can get it for 19 yuan using coupons.
“I 64 the spirit of innovation of the two brands, and the spirit is also shared by young people,” said Lin. In recent years, Moutai has embarked on various creative campaigns to 65 to younger customers, introducing products like Moutai ice cream, scented sachets (香囊) and canvas bags. “This partnership lets Moutai make its brand younger,” Li Honghui, a marketing director for drinks, also pointed out that such innovative cooperation can bring 66 to both brands. “Through partnerships, brands can share resources, expand the market, and bring more diversified products to consumers,”Li said.
In 2023, China’s brand partnership market is 67 to surpass a scale of 100 billion yuan and is projected to approach 300 billion yuan by 2025, according to China Quality Daily.
However, flawed partnerships may lead to negative consequences. Take the collaboration between Chinese coffee chain Manner and French luxury brand Louis Vuitton (LV), for example. Consumers could get a free LV canvas bag by buying at least two books in the coffee shop. The two books would cost at least 580 yuan. The campaign was harshly criticized for the high barrier of 68 to receive the gift and many people doubted whether it was worth the price.
Similarly, in July this year, milk tea brand Heytea and jewellery brand Chow Tai Fook jointly launched a peach-flavored drink, which was mocked by internet users as neither 69 nor tasty.

China Set to Make Own Ballpoint Pen Tips (圆珠笔笔头)
One of China’s major stainless steel(不锈钢) producers has independently developed the special steel needed to make the ballpoint pen tips and plans to mass-produce the material to replace 71 in two years.
The group has spent five years on research and development to 72 the technology, ending a long-term Chinese reliance(依赖)on foreign pen tips.
Without this technology, China’s pen manufacturers, which produce 38 billion ballpoint pens per year, have had to buy the 73 parts from overseas markets, costing the industry $17.3 million a year, according to the China National Light Industry Council.
“It will be one of our 74 products in the long run, and we will try more materials for tips of ballpoint pens to remain competitive,” said Li Jianmin, director of TISCO’s research and development center.
Wang Huimian, TISCO’s senior engineer, said the company will invest more 75 and manpower to develop next-generation ballpoint pen tips in a(n) 76 way to further compete with rivals(竞争对手) in Japan and Switzerland.
“If these factors are ignored, its 77 won’t attract customers.” said Wang.
The successful home-made pen tips have also won wide popularity on 78 social platform because a wide range-of netizens (网民) ‘believe that it is going to motivate our national manufacturers.
Making such products requires high-precision 79 .Special micro elements must be added to liquid steel to make a quality tip that can write continually for at least 800 meters.
Eager to enhance its earning ability, the company 80 that it planned to produce-10.5 million metric tons of steel this year, including 4.5 million stainless steel products.
Zhao Ying, a researcher at the Institute of Industrial Economics of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences in Beijing, said, “All these elements can be reached only through long-term investment and increasing development” he said.

It is usually a common practice that journal websites offer readers their free online editions of articles and other information. However, America’s most popular newspaper website announced that the era of free online journalism is drawing to a 81 . The New York Times has become the biggest publisher yet to set out plans for a pay wall around its digital offering, 82 the accepted practice that Internet users will not pay for news.
Struggling with a decline of 83 and a downward tendency in street corner sales, The New York Times intends to introduce a “metered” model. Readers will be required to pay when they have exceeded a set number of its online articles per month.
The decision puts the 159-year-old newspaper on the 84 side of an increasingly wide chasm (鸿沟) in the media industry. But others, including the Guardian, have said they will not charge Internet readers.
The New York Time’s publisher, Arthur Sulzberger, 85 that the idea was a gamble; 86 a print circulation of 995, 000 on weekdays and 1.4 million on Sundays, the New York Times is the third bestselling American newspaper, behind the Wall Street Journal and USA Today.

Workcations: The travel trend mixing work and play
“After working from home for over a year, I needed a change in atmosphere,” says Vedika Bhaia, a Kolkata-based marketing entrepreneur and content creator. Last summer, she and a friend went on a 15-day trip through India’s Parvati Valley, 91 the natural environment while balancing a full workload on a laptop.
Though she was used to working 92 , Bhaia says the ‘work-from-anywhere’ mentality (思维模式)created by the pandemic pushed her to take a trip that combined work and leisure. “I knew travelling would do 93 for my mental health. It would help me 94 the creative block I was having as well,” she says.
The popularity of workcations may seem to conflict with the firmly 95 idea that we should keep work and play apart – after all, better awareness of work-related mental health stressors has left us more conscious than ever of the importance of 96 boundaries between our professional and personal lives. Yet experts argue that the adaptability we’ve developed during the pandemic has 97 us well to enjoy a break that combines work and play. And given the benefits workers see in them – like more chances to explore new places while fulfilling our day-to-day responsibilities – workcations are likely to become a practice lasting well beyond the pandemic.
Of course, there may well be some people who prefer to commit fully to either work or play, rather than combine the two activities. Rachel Fu, professor of tourism, says that whether people enjoy the workcation experience will depend on “a variety of individual personalities and behavioural choices”; some may feel they are only on holiday if they are totally free from work, for example. But Fu suspects that many white-collar workers have 98 the skills needed to pull off workcations during the pandemic. “Our behaviours have been forced to change,” she says. “Home is school, home is where we work. We have all been trained to switch: ‘OK, now we have a Zoom meeting’. I think after the past two years, we can switch from one thing to the next very 99 . ”
Given the level of interest from workers now accustomed to staying productive in multiple environments, workcations look like a practice that’s here to stay. “As long as you deliver, many companies don’t care where you’re working from,” says Fu. Accommodating workers will be in companies’ interests; it’s already clear that 100 will be key to keeping workers, especially as the new generation of workers, in particular, value the ability to work from anywhere.

Danger in the desert
That day we were deep in Chile’s Atacama Desert. There the 101 could often be compared to Mars. Our team of four female microbiologists watched as a car full of curious men pulled up beside us. Because we were strangers in a(n) 102 place, our minds immediately jumped to ways we could protect ourselves. So, 103 , our Chilean fellow guide lifted the strong tool she’d been using to dig up plant roots. The rest of us tried to look braver than we felt.
We had come to this desert to conduct DNA studies on giant horsetails that somehow grow well in one of Earth’s driest places. We were searching for plants in the most remote locations, where they would be 104 by human activities such as mining and agriculture.
We’d been warned that the trip could be dangerous. Because we were traveling so far from fuel sources, we were told to take along a can of gas. Our destination was at the end of a(n) 105 single-lane dirt road lined with burned-out vehicles that had not successfully negotiated the steep downslope. Our sample site was near a village, and the people might not, we were told, 106 positively to us. We were instructed to report our travel plans at the nearest police station so that search parties would know where to look for us if we disappeared.
We had found the amazing plants and their bright green stocks 107 over our heads. They aroused the 108 of ancient wetland plants. The men approached as we finished collecting our samples. We waited tensely as a man 109 the car and walked toward us. To our surprise and relief, he politely invited us to visit their village—they wanted to show us a lovely church of which they were proud. That day, we learned about more than the microbiomes that help desert plants grow well. We also met a(n) 110 community who had likewise beautifully adapted to their challenging home.

Jenny Carter an NHS coordinator is an “extreme night owl,” one of an estimated 8.2% of the population whose natural inclination(倾向)is to fall asleep well after midnight. Left to her own devices, she’d prefer to go to bed around 3 a.m. and wake up about noon.
Why do night owls exist There is no single 111 accepted theory, but evolutionary biologists think that communities with more variation in chronotypes(睡眠类型)may have been more likely to survive.
Another theory is that variation is 112 how genetics works. Right from birth, our personal biological clocks are already 113 . Genetics establishes a person’s chronotype. Colin Espie, professor of sleep medicine at the University of Oxford, says this 114 differences in hair eye and skin color or height.
Natural night owls are 115 different from insomniacs or people who stay up until the early hours because of family or work circumstances. Being a night owl isn’t a problem.
But this isn’t always well understood. Jessica Batchelor is a medical writer who feels most productive at 11 p.m. “I can’t tell anyone when I went to sleep, woke up, showered or ate a meal without being 116 ,” she says “I struggle with feelings of guilt and shame.”
This mentality is rooted in our agrarian(耕地的)past when farm work had to begin at dawn.
Our culture mistakenly associates sleeping little and rising early with 117 . It is often extolled(颂扬)as a habit of successful people: for instance in the 118 with Margaret Thatcher’s four-hour rest, or articles about “sleepless-elite” CEOs who start their days with a 4 a.m. jog.
Actually, there is nothing wrong with staying up late as long as you’re getting a good amount of sleep every night; 119 , early risers have no special biological advantage. What research has not disproved, however, is that morning people tend to get more done.
The productivity expert Laura Vanderkam 120 that people should consider switching their schedule not because it’s necessarily better but because it’s practical.
Waking up earlier to work out, make headway on a creative project or enjoy a stress-free cup of coffee can help make it easier to accomplish more without sacrificing time for yourself.

Get rid of mosquitoes, but how
Almost everyone who spends time outdoors has experienced mosquitoes. These bloodsucking insects give itchy bites and can spread disease. But how can you avoid them and protect yourself
Jessica Damiano is a gardening expert. In a recent story, Damiano said the best control is 121 . And she gave suggestions on how to 122 mosquito populations.
It may seem difficult to avoid mosquitoes, as most of the areas in the world are 123 populated with them. People who live near 124 of water, such as lakeside, may experience more mosquitoes. But there are several measures you can take to reduce their numbers.
Mosquitoes need less than a centimeter of water to lay eggs. A female can lay hundreds of eggs at a time. So, check your 125 to see if there is anywhere that collects water. Water can easily collect in small 126 —a child’s toy, a trash can lid, or a cooking pot.
Even if the amount of standing water seems small, 127 it. Make holes in the bottoms of containers that can hold 128 water. Other standing water such as in ponds and bird baths can be 129 with chemicals.
There are other things you can do to protect yourself. Put screens in your doors and windows or keep them closed. And cut down on time spent outdoors between the early evening and the early morning. Mosquitoes are most 130 during that time.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen:
We’re at a tipping point in human history, between gaining the stars and losing the planet we call home. At the same time as we’re discovering this treasure of potentially 131 worlds, our own planet is sinking. 2014 was the hottest year on record. Glaciers and sea ice are now disappearing in a matter of decades. These planetary-scale environmental changes are rapidly 132 our ability to alter their course.
I’m not a climate scientist, I’m an astronomer. You could say that I look for 133 alien real estate. Now, as somebody who is deeply 134 in the search for life in the universe, I can tell you that the more you look for planets like Earth, the more you appreciate our own planet itself. Each one of these new worlds 135 a comparison between the newly discovered planet and the planets we know best: those of our own Solar System.
Consider our neighbor, Mars. Though the Martian view 136 the deserts of our own home world, Mars is a pretty terrible place to live considering the extent to which we have not 137 the deserts of our own planet. Even in the driest, highest places on Earth, the air is sweet and thick with oxygen exhaled (呼气) from thousands of miles away by our rainforests.
I worry that Mars and other planets carries with it a long, dark shadow: the 138 by some that Mars will be there to save us from the destruction of the only truly livable planet we know of, the Earth. As much as I love interplanetary 139 , I deeply disagree with this idea. There are many excellent reasons to go to Mars, but for anyone to tell you that Mars will be there to back up humanity is like the captain of the Titanic telling you that the real party is happening later on the lifeboats.
If we truly believe in our ability to 140 the hostile environments of Mars for human habitation, then we should be able to surmount the far easier task of preserving the habitability of the Earth.

UCLA environmental law professor Sean Hecht was walking across the campus recently when he photographed four food-delivery robots that couldn’t figure out a way around a pile of discarded electric scooters.
“Automated food delivery robots were apparently all 141 behind a carelessly placed scooter. I just observed a couple of students clearing a path out of pity for the robots,” Hecht tweeted, “This is our future, I guess.” Twitter jumped on Hecht’s post with enthusiasm: Some said they would have helped the robots. Others said, no way, no help. Some joked about turning the robots over onto their backs.
It’s not easy being a delivery robot. They have been kicked by angry pedestrians, peed on by dogs, and 142 by heavy glass doors, among other misfortunes. They’ve become popular 143 of online fail videos. In these videos they can be seen falling down stairs, bumping into a fire hydrant (消防栓) and 144 up a ramp (斜坡) much too quickly. And, of course, crashing.
There are also some potential 145 to overcome before delivery robots can be widely adopted. Many people still have concerns with their safety, not to mention the possibility of sidewalk congestion (拥堵) and job loss. Plus, they have a fairly low carrying capacity, which is a/an 146 factor to the limited number and type of deliveries that they can complete. Moreover, the robots need to remain within a certain radius (半径) of a charging station, so they are also 147 in their potential range. This could make their 148 slow, especially in those areas which are located farther from the country’s major city centers. It is also worth noting that even if the delivery robots themselves are powered by electricity, the source of the electricity may not be environmentally friendly. This is another concern that will need to be 149 as their usage grows.
Society’s growing 150 for contactless delivery services have helped driven up demand for delivery bots. It seems, however, that these machines still have a long way to go.
