My grandparents actively practised simplicity. They bth grew up in very large families and lived thrugh the Great Depressin. Saving fr a rainy day and aviding superfluus spending was their life guide. Rather than seeking fulfillment thrugh material items, they chse t spend really simple life tgether, with family and in nature.
Over the years my grandparents nticed dramatic changes in their cmmunity. Every year mre farmland was destryed t build larger and larger hmes.

My grandparents avided cnsumptive lifestyle by painting and repairing the huse themselves. They lived in a small hme, but had a huge garden. They lved gardening and planting because it reduced their grcery bill, imprved their health, and gave them an excuse t be utside. They als reused and recycled everything. Fr instance, they had driven the same car fr ver 15 years and didn’t buy a new ne until the ld Chevrlet was wrn ut.
Thrugh their example I learned an imprtant lessn: It is pssible t live a simple and fulfilling life. My grandparents taught me that living a simple life isn’t abut self-deprivatin (剥夺) .

Nature has inspired researchers t develp a rbtic gripper (抓取器) that behaves like an elephant’s trunk (象鼻) t pick up and put dwn bjects withut breaking them. The University f New Suth Wales (UNSW) Sydney researchers said the technlgy culd be widely applied in industries where breakable bjects are handled, such as agriculture, fd and the scientific explratin industries — even fr human rescue peratins.
Dr Thanh Nh D, UNSW Medical Rbtics Lab directr, said the gripper culd reach cnsumers in the next 12 t 16 mnths if his team fund an industry partner. “Our new sft fabric gripper is thin, flat, lightweight and can grip varius bjects — even in narrw ces — fr example, a pen inside a tube,” Dr D said. “This gripper als has an imprved real-time frce sensr which is 15 times mre sensitive than traditinal designs and detects the grip strength required t prevent damage t bjects it’s handling. The gripper bdy can change, enabling it t hld bjects f varius shapes and weights.”
Dr D said the researchers fund inspiratin in nature when designing their sft fabric gripper. “Animals such as an elephant use the sft structures f their bdies t hld bjects. These animals can d this because f a cmbinatin f highly sensitive rgans, the sense f tuch and the strength f thusands f muscles withut bne — fr example, an elephant's trunk has up t 40,000 muscles. S, we wanted t cpy these gripping abilities,” he said.
Dr D said the researchers’ new sft gripper was an imprvement n existing designs that had disadvantages that limited their applicatin. “Many sft grippers are based n human hand-like structures with multiple inward-bending fingers, but this makes them unsuitable t grip bjects that are strangely shaped, heavy r big, r bjects smaller r larger than the gripper’s pening. Many existing sft grippers als lack the ability t prvide sensry infrmatin and flexibility, which means yu can’t use them with breakable bjects r in narrw ces,” he said. “Our technlgy can grip lng bjects and get them frm narrw ces, as well as get int hles t pick up bjects.”
12. What is Dr Thanh Nh D’s team trying t d at the mment?
A. Perfect the gripper. B. Partner with agriculturalists.
C. Put the gripper n the market.D. Increase their new prducts’sales.
13. What is a characteristic f this rbtic gripper?
A. It is quite hard. B. It can change t meet needs.
C. It cmes in different shapes.D. It is able t send real-time warnings.
14. What is paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. Hw the researchers carried ut the study.
B. What the researchers want t achieve.
C. Where the researchers gt the idea.
D. Why the researchers lve nature.
15. What is the prblem with the existing grippers?
A. They are very weak. B. They are big and heavy.
C. They have limited applicatins. D. They wrk differently frm human hands.

Dear teachers and students,
There is n denying that electricity plays a great rle in ur life. Hwever, it is being cnsumed t much, which is a waste f mney and cntributes t glbal warming. Therefre, as the chief editr f ur schl newper, I am writing t call n everyne t save electricity.
First f all, the simplest way t save electricity is t turn ff lights whenever yu leave a rm. Besides, pen up yur curtains and let the sun shine in. Using natural light whenever pssible instead f artificial light can greatly reduce the amunt f electricity yu use during the day. Last but nt least, it is advisable t replace utdated energy-cnsuming appliances with energy-efficient nes, which saves mre in the lng run.
Every little bit cunts. Let’s make jint effrts t save energy and live a green lw-carbn life.

Tired and sad, she sat dwn in frnt f the huse. “Where wuld my mther be?” she wndered. “Was she still angry with me?” Again, the scene f the quarrel appeared in her mind. She remembered her rudeness t her mther. Realizing that all the sclding frm her mther was due t the fact that her mther really cared a lt abut her, she felt rather ashamed, and tears began t rll dwn her cheeks.
Paragraph 2:
A gentle tuch n her hair called her mind back. She raised her head and saw the familiar face f her mther. “Here yu cme! I’ve been lking fr yu,” she said, tired and relieved. Jenny culdn’t help thrwing herself int her mther’s arms. “Mum, I’m s srry and thank yu fr what yu have dne fr me.” She expressed her sincere aplgy and great gratitude. Hearing this, her mther smiled, patting her back gently.
