Cancer is a tough disease. When someone hears they have cancer, words of support often feel empty. In such times, actions can show support more powerfully than words. After Lauren’s husband was diagnosed with cancer, she decided to shave his head. But before starting, she shared a heartfelt message.
Lauren is a hairdresser, and hair is a big part of her life. Under her post, she wrote, “Hair is my art, my passion, and my way of making others feel beautiful, confident, and seen. It’s a reflection of who we are, how we feel, and how we present ourselves to the world. But today, I’m choosing to let go of it all, not because hair doesn’t matter, but because some things matter so much more.”
Before shaving her husband’s head, Lauren did something surprising. She turned the clippers on herself. Her husband was shocked and said, “No. No, no, no.” As she continued, his expression changed. He realized that his wife was ready to stand by him through this tough journey. She made a second and a third shave, cutting off large sections of her long hair. At one point, her husband asked, “Why ” Eventually, Lauren sat in the chair, and her husband helped to finish shaving her head. When she was done, she looked like a fuzzy cue ball. Then, her husband sat down, and she shaved his head. They hugged many times during this moment of solidarity.
Lauren’s final words were powerful. She said, “This act isn’t just about hair. It’s about standing with him in his fight, showing him that we are in this together, every step of the way.” She also reflected on the importance of hair, saying, “Yes, hair is important, and it will always be a part of who I am, but at this moment, it’s just hair. What truly matters is the bond we share, the fight we fight, and the love that carries us through.”
4. What did Lauren decide to do after her husband was diagnosed with cancer
A. Cut her own hair. B. Shave her husband’s head.
C Write a heartfelt message. D. Take her husband to the hospital.
5. Why is hair particularly significant to Lauren
A. Because of her profession. B. Because she likes long hair.
C. Because of her husband’s love. D. Because she thinks hair is a necessity.
6. What was Lauren’s husband’s initial reaction when she started shaving her head
A. He felt disappointed with Lauren. B. He laughed and found it amusing.
C. He was supportive and encouraged her. D. He was surprised and tried to stop her.
7 How did Lauren feel about shaving her head
A. She regretted doing it. B. She felt indifferent to it.
C. She believed it was a small act. D. She saw it as a symbol of unity and support.

The warning signs are all there: record-breaking heat failing health, vanishing ice sheets, and more unpredictable weather. And yet we’re still pumping increasing amounts of greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere, threatening our very survival.
A new study by an international team of experts highlights how global methane (甲烷) emissions have been rising rapidly since 2006, particularly since 2020. We’ll perpetuate the trend unless we do something extreme very soon. The study’s authors have then outlined some strategies countries can use to take action, and developed an online tool to help with this.
This continual climb in methane emissions is largely due to the ongoing use of fossil fuels in preference to cleaner alternatives. It’s directly produced by oil, gas, and coal drilling and processing. The increasing release of methane from natural wetlands, caused by a hotter climate, is now also contributing.
“Worldwide efforts to limit climate change are rightly focused on carbon dioxide (CO2), the primary driver,” the team writes in their published paper. “However, since humanity has failed to adequately address climate change for several decades, keeping warming below agreed goals now requires that we address all major climate pollutants.”
There is currently much less methane in our atmosphere than CO2, but methane is a stronger greenhouse gas. We know that methane is a major contributor to the warming of the world, trapping heat like CO2 does. It also contributes to the formation of ozone at ground level, increasing the risk of death through diseases related lungs and heart.
All these different methane sources need to be urgently looked at. The study finds: Methane reduction targets should be applied alongside CO2 reduction targets, and new technologies and policies need to be introduced.
“A change in thinking from governments and organizations is required,” said one of the researchers. “We have created a new online tool to help with the reduction of methane emissions. This tool should help to target reductions effectively and monitor expected improvements.”
8. What does the underlined word “perpetuate” in paragraph 2 mean
A. prevent. B. control. C. continue. D. recognise.
9. What is the main cause of the continuous rise in methane emissions
A. More emission of CO2. B. Ongoing animal farming.
C. Continued use of fossil fuels. D. Modern agricultural development.
10. According to the study, what may increasing methane emissions bring about
A. Health risks caused by ozone. B. Limiting the formation of ozone.
C. A decrease in global temperatures. D. An increase in risk of brain disorder.
11. What is the researcher’s attitude to the new online tool
A. Critical. B. Confident. C. Cautious. D. Disappointed.
D
A study co-led by Professor Rong from City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) and Professor Ke from The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) Faculty of Medicine has confirmed the presence of number sense in rats. This discovery is essential as it establishes an animal model that could help researchers investigate the neural bases of numerical ability and disability in humans.
The research team devised an innovative approach, combining a novel numerical learning task with brain handling techniques and AI modeling. This method was crucial in resolving debates on whether rats possess a natural sense of numbers. The study’s findings offer a deeper understanding of the mechanisms that support numerical cognition.
Number sense is a vital cognitive ability that aids animals in understanding their environment and enhances their survival prospects. It is also a fundamental aspect of mathematical talent, which is a key component of human intelligence. About 3 % to 7 % of people suffer from dyscalculia, a learning disability that affects the ability to learn arithmetic and mathematics of people of normal intelligence. A shortage in number sense is one of the major symptoms.
To separate the influence of numbers from continuous amount, the research team conducted careful quantitative analyses. The study demonstrated that rats, even without prior numerical experience, could develop number sense when trained with sounds representing specific quantities. Remarkably, the rats consistently used the number of sounds, rather than the sounds’ continuous amount, to make choices associated with food rewards.
Professor Ke expressed her excitement about the study’s potential impact. “This research not only uncovers the mystery of how the brain processes numbers but also opens new avenues for studying the neural circuits involved in numerical processing in animals,” she said. “It also reveals light on the genetic factors associated with mathematical ability.”
The findings have broader effects, particularly in the field of AI, where the neural network modeling could inform the development of smarter algorithms (算法). Moreover, the enhanced understanding of the brain’s numerical processing mechanisms could contribute to creating interventions for individuals who struggle with numbers.
12. What is the author’s main purpose in writing paragraph 1
A. To describe the methods used in the research.
B. To highlight the discovery of number sense in rats.
C. To introduce the researchers involved in the study.
D. To explain the significance of number sense in animals.
13. What is the characteristic of people with dyscalculia
A. Abnormal intelligence. B. Difficulty with languages.
C. A lack of number sense. D. Strong mathematical ability.
14. How did the study show rats developed number sense
A. By counting training. B. By brain scans during tasks.
C. By food rewards for numbers. D. By wild behavior observation.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. Do Animals Have Number Sense B. Is AI Used to Model Neural Networks
C. Does Dyscalculia Affect Arithmetic Learning D. Are Mathematical Abilities Essential to Animals

Martin is a high school student who enjoys the friendship with his classmates, but sometimes he wonders what true friendship really is. One day, he expressed his confusion to his mom, who suggested that he organize a team-building activity to explore the real meaning of friendship.
Martin’s mom suggested that he organize an activity at school that would require teamwork and joint support. His mom told him he would get a new bike he always wanted as a prize after understanding the meaning of friendship. Martin thought this was a great idea and decided to talk to his teacher about it. His teacher was very supportive and gave him some valuable advice. With the teacher’s guidance, Martin began planning the event. He chose a weekend and invited his classmates to participate. He carefully designed the activity, preparing various challenges to ensure everyone could get involved. He explained the rules, including how to divide tasks, communicate effectively, and support each other when facing challenges. He emphasized the importance of teamwork and how to build trust and cooperation during the activity.
On the day of the event, Martin and his classmates moved around the campus, searching for hidden markers. They were divided into several groups, each assigned different tasks. Some had to solve puzzles, while others had to complete physical challenges. Some tasks required close cooperation among team members. Martin noticed that some classmates encouraged each other when facing difficulties, while others shared their findings to benefit the whole team. Together, they overcame one obstacle after another, and each success strengthened the team’s cohesion (凝聚力).
Among the challenges, one was impressive. In the challenge, they had to cross a rope bridge over a simulated river. Team members had to support each other to ensure everyone crossed safely. Martin saw classmates who usually didn’t interact much tightly holding each other’s hands, giving courage and support. This scene deeply moved him, making him realize the powerful bond of friendship when facing challenges together.
