“The future belngs t thse wh believe in the beauty f their dreams.” Eleanr Rsevelt nce said. If we want t accmplish anything in life, let us remember that we shuld never give up.
Viennese-brn cmpser Frederick Lewe, whm we remember frm his musical scres that include My Fair Lady, Gigi and Camelt, was nt always famus. He learned t play the pian with the great masters f Eurpe and achieved huge success as a musician and cmpser in his early years.
But when he immigrated t the United States he failed as a pianist. Fr a while he tried ther types f wrk. But he never gave up his dream and cntinued t play the pian and write music. During thse years, he culd nt always affrd t make ends meet by playing the pian.
One day, bent ver the keybard, he heard nthing but the music that he played with inspiratin. When he finished and lked up, he was surprised t find that he had an audience—three men wh were seated n the flr. They said nthing and made n mvement tward the pian. Instead they dug int their pckets, tk ut all the mney they had, placed it n the pian and walked ut, empty-handed. Deeply tuched by the beauty f his music, these men recgnized excellence and respnded t it.
Whatever yu d, try yur best. If what yu d is wrth ding and if yu believe that wh yu are is f value, then yu cannt affrd t be cntent with medicrity (平庸). When yu chse the path f excellence thrugh this life, yu will bring ut the best in yurself and receive the best it can ffer in return.

Wherever we g, we are surrunded by histry. Acrss the glbe, cultural heritage is passed dwn thrugh the generatins. It is in the buildings and structures arund us. It is in the arts and artifacts (手工艺品) we treasure. It lives in the languages we speak and the stries we tell. But tday, it is under attack as never befre. Nt nly are the damages f time threatening ur cultural heritage, but cnflicts, climate change, glbalizatin and turism are all exacting a heavy price. Technlgy is nw the mst imprtant weapn in the battle. Here’s hw technlgy is preserving ur cultural heritage.
As yu can imagine, creating the replicas (复制品) by 2D images is extremely time-cnsuming. Increasingly, artificial intelligence(AI)algrithms (算法) allw millins f images t be stred in a matter f hurs.

Human interactin with these lcatins is ding a great deal f harm. Wastes pile up everywhere, causing serius prblems.

We’ll all finally be able t walk thrugh places, lk at (and tuch) artifacts and wrks f art withut ever seeing them with ur wn eyes.
Finally, ur cultural heritage will be preserved by technlgy. Effrts in research, data sharing and prject wrk will help prmte and preserve the cultural heritage f cuntries all acrss the wrld.

Fr emperr penguins, sea ice is essential t survival. The icnic birds, fund nly in Antaretica, breed, lay their eggs and raise their chicks n fast sea ice. They arrive at their breeding sites in late March. In May and June, they lay their eggs, which hatch after 65 days during the Antarctic winter. The chicks then remain n the ice until their luff (绒毛) dwn is replaced by waterprf feathers, finally fledging (长出羽毛) in the summer mnths f December and January.
Last year, sea ice levels in Antaretiaa were at an all-time lw—breaking the recrd first set in 2021. The Bellingshausen Sea regin, t the west f the Antaretic Peninsula, saw the mst extreme reductin f sea ice, with sme areas experiencing a 100% lss. Of the five knwn emperr penguins’ habitats in the Bellingshausen Sea regin, all but ne experienced what was mst likely a ttal breeding failure due t the lss f sea ice, accrding t a paper published tday in Nature Cmmunicatins Earth & Envirnment. Satellite imagery clearly shwed the sea ice had brken up befre the chicks wuld have develped enugh t survive n their wn.
“We have never seen emperr penguins fail t breed at this scale in a single seasn,” the study’s lead authr, Peter Fretwell f the British Antarctic Survey, said in a statement. “The lss f sea ice in this regin during the Antaretic summer made it very unlikely that displaced chicks wuld survive.”
The study team als believe their findings supprt a prjectin that if present warming rates cntinue, mre than 80%f emperr penguins’ habitats will disappear, meaning they have t few individuals t supprt a ppulatin, by 2100.
12. Which f the fllwing is the passage prbably taken frm?
A. A science magazine.B. A science fictin
C. An advertisement.D. A nvel.
13. When may emperr penguins’ eggs hatch?
A. In May.B. In Nvember.C. In August.D. In January.
14. What can we infer frm the secnd paragraph?
A. All emperr penguins suffered breeding failure.
B. Chicks can grw up befre the sea ice breaks up.
C. Mst areas experienced a 100%sea ice lss in Antarctica.
D. Sea ice levels in Antarctica reached the lwest in 2022.
15. What is the main idea f the text?
A. Chicks are bred difficultly in Antarctica.
B. Emperr penguins fail t breed their chicks.
C. Sea ice lss affects emperr penguins’ survival.
D. Climate change affects sea ice lss in Antarctica.

“The future belngs t thse wh believe in the beauty f their dreams.” Eleanr Rsevelt nce said. If we want t accmplish anything in life, let us remember that we shuld never give up.
Viennese-brn cmpser Frederick Lewe, whm we remember frm his musical scres that include My Fair Lady, Gigi and Camelt, was nt always famus. He learned t play the pian with the great masters f Eurpe and achieved huge success as a musician and cmpser in his early years.
But when he immigrated t the United States he failed as a pianist. Fr a while he tried ther types f wrk. But he never gave up his dream and cntinued t play the pian and write music. During thse years, he culd nt always affrd t make ends meet by playing the pian.
One day, bent ver the keybard, he heard nthing but the music that he played with inspiratin. When he finished and lked up, he was surprised t find that he had an audience—three men wh were seated n the flr. They said nthing and made n mvement tward the pian. Instead they dug int their pckets, tk ut all the mney they had, placed it n the pian and walked ut, empty-handed. Deeply tuched by the beauty f his music, these men recgnized excellence and respnded t it.
Whatever yu d, try yur best. If what yu d is wrth ding and if yu believe that wh yu are is f value, then yu cannt affrd t be cntent with medicrity (平庸). When yu chse the path f excellence thrugh this life, yu will bring ut the best in yurself and receive the best it can ffer in return.

Wherever we g, we are surrunded by histry. Acrss the glbe, cultural heritage is passed dwn thrugh the generatins. It is in the buildings and structures arund us. It is in the arts and artifacts (手工艺品) we treasure. It lives in the languages we speak and the stries we tell. But tday, it is under attack as never befre. Nt nly are the damages f time threatening ur cultural heritage, but cnflicts, climate change, glbalizatin and turism are all exacting a heavy price.

Fr emperr penguins, sea ice is essential t survival. The icnic birds, fund nly in Antaretica, breed, lay their eggs and raise their chicks n fast sea ice. They arrive at their breeding sites in late March. In May and June, they lay their eggs, which hatch after 65 days during the Antarctic winter. The chicks then remain n the ice until their luff (绒毛) dwn is replaced by waterprf feathers, finally fledging (长出羽毛) in the summer mnths f December and January.
Last year, sea ice levels in Antaretiaa were at an all-time lw—breaking the recrd first set in 2021. The Bellingshausen Sea regin, t the west f the Antaretic Peninsula, saw the mst extreme reductin f sea ice, with sme areas experiencing a 100% lss. Of the five knwn emperr penguins’ habitats in the Bellingshausen Sea regin, all but ne experienced what was mst likely a ttal breeding failure due t the lss f sea ice, accrding t a paper published tday in Nature Cmmunicatins Earth & Envirnment. Satellite imagery clearly shwed the sea ice had brken up befre the chicks wuld have develped enugh t survive n their wn.
“We have never seen emperr penguins fail t breed at this scale in a single seasn,” the study’s lead authr, Peter Fretwell f the British Antarctic Survey, said in a statement. “The lss f sea ice in this regin during the Antaretic summer made it very unlikely that displaced chicks wuld survive.”
The study team als believe their findings supprt a prjectin that if present warming rates cntinue, mre than 80%f emperr penguins’ habitats will disappear, meaning they have t few individuals t supprt a ppulatin, by 2100.
12. Which f the fllwing is the passage prbably taken frm?

A. All emperr penguins suffered breeding failure.
B. Chicks can grw up befre the sea ice breaks up.
C. Mst areas experienced a 100%sea ice lss in Antarctica.
D. Sea ice levels in Antarctica reached the lwest in 2022.
15. What is the main idea f the text?
