Leaving India fr the United Kingdm t cntinue my research career, I felt mre ut f place than befre. At wrk, I shied away frm discussins, let alne putting frward my pinins. I was afraid my clleagues wuld see me thrugh and realize hw weak I really felt. Sme mrnings, just stepping ut f my rm and ging int the lab seemed a challenging task.
That began t change after a quiet breakdwn in the lab urged me t cntact the university’s mental health services. I was advised t attend a cncert by a famus singer frm my mtherland. There I was in the packed cncert hall, surrunded by strangers— all f us clapping and singing alng t the familiar sngs. It was a cmplete victry. I’ve changed a lt since then.
Sn, I planned a day trip t a picturesque city a few hurs away. As I tk pictures f the beautiful surrundings, and enjyed a lemnade there, I realized nbdy was really paying any attentin t me. My cnfidence and self-recgnitin grew as I enjyed mre lcal day trips. My grwing self-cnfidence carried ver t wrk, where I started t speak up and put frward my pinins. I began t ask questins during departmental discussins.
S, when an imprtant cnference relevant t ur research came arund, I felt cmfrtable registering t attend n my wn even if my clleagues weren’t interested in it. Nt nly did I meet the speakers, but I als intrduced myself t ther attendees and industry representatives, chatting abut their prducts. The experience inspired me t evaluate my wn prfessinal interests.
Since then, I have had cnfidence t mve t ther cuntries, enthusiastic abut new pprtunities. Traveling alne did nt give me any magical pwer, but taught me that I have the cmpetence t grw and succeed, just like everyne arund me, and it helped me get rid f the self-dubt that used t hld me back.

Have yu ever wndered what wild animals d when n ne is watching?
Lw cst, dependable and small mdern cameras ffered a big help. Cameras placed in hard-t-reach places have sht everything frm small desert cats t larger snw-lving feline in the nrthern Rcky Muntains. Scientists have been able t dcument the “private” mments f wildlife with leading technlgy.
Grant harries is a gvernment bilgist with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service in Albuquerque, New Mexic. In his wrds, “there's n dubt that these wild cameras are imprtant tls t learn new infrmatin n wildlife.”
Harries said sme images help scientists see the effects f climate change. Fr example, the desert animal javelina and the tree-lving catimundi have been caught n cameras nrth f their nrmal habitat. Harries said this culd mean glbal warming is expanding their range nrthward.
Researchers with the Wyming Migratin Initiative, r WMI, are amng thse using wild cameras alng with glbal psitining systems, r gaps. They attach GPS devices t elf, mule deer and antelpe in and arund Yellw stne Natinal Park. Then they can recrd their migratins. But WMI directr Matt hew Kauffman says as thse devices are limited, s is the amunt f infrmatin they can gather frm gaps. Hwever, cameras can be left in very wild areas fr days, weeks r even mnths. They can prvide infrmatin n hw many animals are mving ver a given perid f time. Putting thse cameras in place required careful planning. Wild vide can shw details abut animal behavir. Hwever, wild cameras have their prblems t. Animals such as wlverines and bears smetimes attack them. Scientists d nt knw if the attacks are the result f anger r interest. Als, the devices have becme ppular tls t help hunters lk fr animals. Sme peple argue that it is unfair t use the cameras that way.
Even with such prblems, wild cameras are clearly an imprtant scientific tl in researching wild animals.
8. What des the underlined wrd “dcument” mean?
A. Remind.B. Enrich.C. Appreciate.D. Recrd.
9. Which f the fllwing helps scientists knw abut climate change?
A. Where animals g.B. What animals eat.
C. Hw active animals are.D. When animals mve.
10. Why d sme peple argue against the cameras?
A. It is difficult t fix the cameras.B. They might bring threats t animals.
C. It is hard t achieve careful planning.D. They make animals angry.
11. What is the authr's attitude twards wild cameras?

China has been planting seaweed fr abut 1,700 years . Castal ppulatins harvested a variety f algae first as a surce f fd and animal feed, but later fr industrial and nutritinal purpses as the practice became mre widespread- Tday, China remains the wrld’s biggest prducer f farmed seaweed, but many ther cuntries start t realize the ptential f planting seaweed.
Certain red seaweed varieties cntain up t 25% prtein, but thers are als rich in irn and ther minerals. Seaweed planting becmes ht aquaculture which is nw shting up. In Alaska, where the largest seaweed farm in Nrth America is lcated, farmers prduced ver 112,000 punds f seaweed in 2019 — a 200% increase frm Alaska’s first cmmercial harvest in 2017. Occupying just a few acres, seaweed planting is ecnmical, relatively simple and cmes with a lt f envirnmental benefits.
Research shws that seaweed culd play a key rle beynd serving as a surce f nutrients and fd, but als in the fight against sme f the wrst prblems: climate change and cean pllutin. Seaweed desn’t need t be fed r fertilized, as the crp gets everything it needs frm sunlight and the natural nutrients already fund in the cean water. There are, f curse, sme disadvantages t seaweed farming. Fr example, verprducing seaweed culd influence the amunt f natural light available t ther cean species. In additin, technlgy fr transprting, drying, and turning seaweed int bifuel and fd can take up resurces and give ff CO2. It’s als pssible that these crps culd remve t many nutrients frm the wild ecsystem.
Hwever, as research cntinues t search int sustainable seaweed farming methds, we may discver that advantages win ver disadvantages.
The ecnmic value f dealing with nutrient pllutin, fr example, may reduce csts fr wastewater treatment; the same ges fr turning seaweed int bifuel, fertilizer, r fuel depending n water quality. The balance will cme dwn t a cmbinatin f plicy and scientific research .
12. Why des the authr mentin seaweed farming in Alaska?
A. T shw seaweed planting is grwing fast.
B. T annunce seaweed planting is ec-friendly.
C. T state seaweed is easy t plant acrss the wrld.
D. T prve seaweed planting has large ecnmic benefits .
13. Which is the disadvantage f seaweed planting?
A. Remving ther cean species.B. Cnsuming t many nutrients.
C. Taking up t much space.D. Causing ptential cean pllutin.
14. Hw is paragraph 3 mainly develped?
A By making a cmparisn.B. By prviding evidence.
C. By using classificatins.D. By analyzing the backgrund.
15. What can we infer abut seaweed farming in the last paragraph?
A. There are arguments ver it.B. Turning seaweed int fuel is necessary.
C. It needs jint effrts t imprve.D. Dealing with nutrient pllutin csts a lt.

Leaving India fr the United Kingdm t cntinue my research career, I felt mre ut f place than befre. At wrk, I shied away frm discussins, let alne putting frward my pinins. I was afraid my clleagues wuld see me thrugh and realize hw weak I really felt. Sme mrnings, just stepping ut f my rm and ging int the lab seemed a challenging task.
That began t change after a quiet breakdwn in the lab urged me t cntact the university’s mental health services. I was advised t attend a cncert by a famus singer frm my mtherland. There I was in the packed cncert hall, surrunded by strangers— all f us clapping and singing alng t the familiar sngs. It was a cmplete victry. I’ve changed a lt since then.
Sn, I planned a day trip t a picturesque city a few hurs away. As I tk pictures f the beautiful surrundings, and enjyed a lemnade there, I realized nbdy was really paying any attentin t me.

The experience inspired me t evaluate my wn prfessinal interests.
Since then, I have had cnfidence t mve t ther cuntries, enthusiastic abut new pprtunities. Traveling alne did nt give me any magical pwer, but taught me that I have the cmpetence t grw and succeed, just like everyne arund me, and it helped me get rid f the self-dubt that used t hld me back.

Have yu ever wndered what wild animals d when n ne is watching?
Lw cst, dependable and small mdern cameras ffered a big help. Cameras placed in hard-t-reach places have sht everything frm small desert cats t larger snw-lving feline in the nrthern Rcky Muntains. Scientists have been able t dcument the “private” mments f wildlife with leading technlgy.
Grant harries is a gvernment bilgist with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service in Albuquerque, New Mexic. In his wrds, “there's n dubt that these wild cameras are imprtant tls t learn new infrmatin n wildlife.”
Harries said sme images help scientists see the effects f climate change. Fr example, the desert animal javelina and the tree-lving catimundi have been caught n cameras nrth f their nrmal habitat. Harries said this culd mean glbal warming is expanding their range nrthward.
Researchers with the Wyming Migratin Initiative, r WMI, are amng thse using wild cameras alng with glbal psitining systems, r gaps. They attach GPS devices t elf, mule deer and antelpe in and arund Yellw stne Natinal Park. Then they can recrd their migratins. But WMI directr Matt hew Kauffman says as thse devices are limited, s is the amunt f infrmatin they can gather frm gaps. Hwever, cameras can be left in very wild areas fr days, weeks r even mnths. They can prvide infrmatin n hw many animals are mving ver a given perid f time. Putting thse cameras in place required careful planning. Wild vide can shw details abut animal behavir. Hwever, wild cameras have their prblems t. Animals such as wlverines and bears smetimes attack them. Scientists d nt knw if the attacks are the result f anger r interest. Als, the devices have becme ppular tls t help hunters lk fr animals. Sme peple argue that it is unfair t use the cameras that way.
Even with such prblems, wild cameras are clearly an imprtant scientific tl in researching wild animals.

China has been planting seaweed fr abut 1,700 years . Castal ppulatins harvested a variety f algae first as a surce f fd and animal feed, but later fr industrial and nutritinal purpses as the practice became mre widespread- Tday, China remains the wrld’s biggest prducer f farmed seaweed, but many ther cuntries start t realize the ptential f planting seaweed.
Certain red seaweed varieties cntain up t 25% prtein, but thers are als rich in irn and ther minerals. Seaweed planting becmes ht aquaculture which is nw shting up. In Alaska, where the largest seaweed farm in Nrth America is lcated, farmers prduced ver 112,000 punds f seaweed in 2019 — a 200% increase frm Alaska’s first cmmercial harvest in 2017. Occupying just a few acres, seaweed planting is ecnmical, relatively simple and cmes with a lt f envirnmental benefits.
Research shws that seaweed culd play a key rle beynd serving as a surce f nutrients and fd, but als in the fight against sme f the wrst prblems: climate change and cean pllutin. Seaweed desn’t need t be fed r fertilized, as the crp gets everything it needs frm sunlight and the natural nutrients already fund in the cean water. There are, f curse, sme disadvantages t seaweed farming. Fr example, verprducing seaweed culd influence the amunt f natural light available t ther cean species. In additin, technlgy fr transprting, drying, and turning seaweed int bifuel and fd can take up resurces and give ff CO2. It’s als pssible that these crps culd remve t many nutrients frm the wild ecsystem.
Hwever, as research cntinues t search int sustainable seaweed farming methds, we may discver that advantages win ver disadvantages.
The ecnmic value f dealing with nutrient pllutin, fr example, may reduce csts fr wastewater treatment; the same ges fr turning seaweed int bifuel, fertilizer, r fuel depending n water quality. The balance will cme dwn t a cmbinatin f plicy and scientific research .
12. Why des the authr mentin seaweed farming in Alaska?
A. T shw seaweed planting is grwing fast.
B. T annunce seaweed planting is ec-friendly.
C. T state seaweed is easy t plant acrss the wrld.
D. T prve seaweed planting has large ecnmic benefits .
13. Which is the disadvantage f seaweed planting?
A. Remving ther cean species.B. Cnsuming t many nutrients.
C. Taking up t much space.D. Causing ptential cean pllutin.
14. Hw is paragraph 3 mainly develped?
A By making a cmparisn.B. By prviding evidence.
C. By using classificatins.D. By analyzing the backgrund.
15. What can we infer abut seaweed farming in the last paragraph?
A. There are arguments ver it.B. Turning seaweed int fuel is necessary.

Once, when I was a teenager, my father and I were standing in line t buy tickets fr the circus. Finally, there was nly ne family between us and the ticket cunter.

One culd sense they had never been t the circus befre. It prmised t be highlight f their yung lives. The father and mther were at the head f the pack, standing prud as culd be. The mther was hlding her husband’s hand, lking up at him as if t say, “Yu are my knight in shining armr.”

The ticket lady gave the price. The man’s wife let g f his hand, her head drpped, and his lips began t shake. The father leaned a little clser and asked, “Hw much did yu say?”
