Chika's father is alive. We were always tld he was dead. Nw differently!
We drve t where Chika was brn. Stepping ut in frnt f me was her father. I asked abut Chika’s infancy. He answered every inquiry with very few wrds. I didn’t ask why he didn’t want Chika back. I reminded myself he had lst his partner in that earthquake, the mther f his children.
I explained the reasn why I came—Chika’s medical cnditin—the brain tumr(肿瘤). I explained that her life culd be in the balance. I said I had a hard questin. If Chika shuld nt survive, is it imprtant t him that she be buried here in Haiti?“It desn't matter,”he said.“Whatever yu think.”
I eventually came t my utmst missin. I wanted him t see his daughter—and her t see him—perhaps because, deep dwn, I dubted abut anther chance. Yet as we drve back tgether, there was part f me feeling as if I had been nudged(轻推) t the side f the picture. Althugh Janine and I have dne with Chika, this man has a certain claim that we never will.
Yurs, nt yurs! The paperwrk at the rphanage(孤儿院) was signed by me. It bligates us t nurture, feed, educate, and prtect yu. But in the end, it is a dcument, nt parenthd. Yurs, nt yurs!We wrestled with this questin many times, Chika. Remember what yu nce asked? Hw did yu find me?I prmised myself yu wuld never feel lst again.
After tw hurs, the father walked ver, shk my hand, and left. That night, Chika rested her head upn my shulder and after a few secnds mumbled,“Mister Mitch? What will yu d while I sleep?”
“I'll read,”I said.“And think abut hw much I lve yu.”
She ndded, her eyes glwed.“That's what I'll d t.”

It cmes in waves. These are nt calming waves, with their cnsistent slapping f the shre, and seafam casting ver the rcks and sand. These are whipping waves, nes that crush sandcastles and sak the beach in its txic waters.
It's that feeling f embarrassment, sitting in class and tunneling dwn thrugh everything yu've ever dne wrng befre—n yur anxius bench—wndering when smene will make a time machine. Maybe thse thughts cnsist f smething embarrassing yu said as a kid. Or that ne time smene caught yu dancing in a public bathrm. But what abut the ther way arund? D yu lk back and laugh at them and their actins? D yu even remember that r is it just a side detail in yur mind?
All f these things re late t “respectable manners”, disciplining yur actins, and dulling happiness.It desn't fcus r highlight grwth. Instead, it tears dwn jy allwing fr self-ridicule. If yu allw grwth and happiness fr thse ther peple, why dn't yu deserve it fr yurself?
Embarrassment is a lighter shade f shame—a shame frmed frm the perceptin f thers and what pinins they might have. It all cmes dwn t sciety:the biling pt f expectatins placed upn us. The perfectin—an expectatin that seems t grw with each year that passes—riddles its waters. But des it matter that much? Shuld we dull happiness when it's a mment f minr imprtance? Then we're left t questin what we shuld be embarrassed abut, what embarrassment is, and why it happens.
Embarrassment and happiness dn't wrk tgether;they are the ppsites f each ther. Unfrtunately, we can't chse ur emtins, but we can chse hw we live and hw we think f thers. Thinking back n embarrassing memries, hw many f them are f ther peple? Prbably few t nne. It's the same way fr everyne else. We are all living ur wn little lives. N ne else can remember that embarrassing mment yu dwell n every night, s why shuld yu?

A. T describe a natural phenmenn.
B. T picture embarrassment in waves.

When caught in the rain, we have all run fr cver—ften t a nearby tree. On the way, we step ver shrt-lived puddles and hastily frmed streams, marveling at hw quickly the sil changes frm supprtive and predictable t untrustwrthy:slippery, sft, and spngy. At first chance we tend t flee,skipping further bservatin.
Given that direct bservatins are ften impracticable, remte bservatin systems are crucial fr capturing phenmena that are frequent and unpredictable. Hwever, the Bimbache cmmunity f ElHierr bserved water running dwn tree bar k during fg events and captured it fr life and agriculture in 1764. If mre cntemprary hydrlgists(水文学家) had watched fg by trees, frest managers may nt have lgged the Bull Run Watershed, which reduced lcal rainfall by 30% in 1982.
Water science faces criticism because f a“techn ptimism that tries t slve all prblems”. In fact, this issue extends beynd water science. An interdisciplinary research team led by Jhn T. VanStan frm Cleveland State University argues that scientists shuld g beynd the labratry t directly bserve weather phenmena. The researchers insist that hands-n bservatin f strm events is crucial fr cmprehending the cmplexities f wet weather.
“Natural scientists seem increasingly cntent t stay dry and rely n remte sensrs and samplers,mdels, and virtual experiments t understand natural systems. Cnsequently, we can miss imprtant strmy phenmena, imaginative inspiratins, and pprtunities t build intuitin—all f which are critical t scientific prgress,”said Van Stan's team.
This type f“umbrella science”, they warn, can miss imprtant lcalized events. Fr instance, in describin g rainwater’s flw frm the frest treetps t the sils, the authrs nte that“if several branches efficiently capture and carry strmwaters t the stem, rainwater inputs t near-stem sils can be mre than100 times greater.”Likewise, water vapr(水蒸气) cluds trapped beneath frest treetp cvers may escape remte detectin, yet be sensitive t scientists n the grund. At the brader scale, these versights can affect Grund Earth systems mdels, which ften underestimate frest treetp water strage.
Direct bservatin, hwever, has gne beynd making up fr the shrtcmings f“umbrella science.”Van Stan and clleagues see cre value in firsthand strm experiences—nt nly fr natural scientists, but als students studying climate change impacts n ecsystems.
12．Hw d peple tend t react t rain?
A. In a defensive manner.B. In a scientific manner.
C. With a wait-and-see attitude.D. With an bservatin-riented attitude.
13．Why are the examples in paragraph 2 used?
A. T argue that direct bservatins are unachievable.
B. T prve that distance bservatin systems make sense.
C. T justify direct bservatin that is assumed unwrkable.
D. T jke abut techn ptimism that fails t slve all prblem.
14．What des Van Stan's research team argue in terms f hands-n bservatin?
A. It is effrtless and precise.B. It is virtual and accepted.
C. It is cmplex yet time-saving.D. It is crucial yet verlked
15．What wuld the authr prbably discuss in the paragraph that fllws?
A. The grunds f starting the research.
B. The scientific values f cnducting the research.
C. The strengths f the research fr ec-majr learners.
D. The expert evaluatins f the research acrss disciplines.

12．答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第一段“When caught in the rain, we have all run fr cver—ften t a nearby tree. On the way, we step ver shrt-lived puddles and hastily frmed streams, marveling at hw quickly the sil changes frm supprtive and predictable t untrustwrthy: slippery, sft, and spngy. At first chance we tend t flee, skipping further bservatin.(下雨的时候，我们都会跑去躲雨_通常是跑到附近的一棵树上。在路上，我们跨过短暂 的水坑和仓促形成的溪流，惊叹于土壤是如何迅速 地从支持和可预测变成不可靠的：滑，软，海绵状。一有机会，我们往往会逃跑，跳过进一步的观 察。)”可知，面对下雨，人们通常会以防御的方式躲雨。故选A。
13．答案：C

Hwever, the Bimbache cmmunity f EIHierr bserved water running dwn tree bar k during fg events and captured it fr life and agriculture in 1764. If mre cntemprary hydrlgists(水文学家）had watched fg by trees, frest managers may nt have lgged the Bull Run Watershed, which reduced lcal rainfall by 30% in 1982.(鉴于直接观测往往不可行， 远程观测系统对于捕捉频繁和不可预测的现象至关重要。然而，ElHierr的Bimbache社区在雾事件期间观察到水从树上流下，并在1764年将其捕获用于生 活和农业。如果当时更多的水文学家能观察到树下 的雾，森林管理者可能就不会砍伐布尔朗流域的树 木了。布尔朗流域在1982年使当地的降雨量减少了30%。)”“可知，作者在第二段使用例子是为了告诉读者，为了证明直接观察是不可行的。故选C。
14．答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据文章第三段“An interdisciplinary research team led by Jhn T. VanStan frm Cleveland State University argues that scientists shuld g beynd the labratry t directly bserve weather phenmena. The researchers insist that hands- n bservatin f strm events is crucial fr cmprehending the cmplexities f wet weather.(克利 夫兰州立大学的Jhn T. VanStan领导的一个跨学科研究小组认为，科学家应该走出实验室，直接观察天 气现象。研究人员坚持认为，亲自观察风暴事件对 于理解潮湿天气的复杂性至关重要。)”以及第四段“Natural scientists seem increasingly cntent t stay dry and rely n remte sensrs and samplers, mdels, and virtual experiments t understand natural systems. Cnsequently, we can miss imprtant strmy phenmena, imaginative inspiratins, and pprtunities t build intuitin—all f which are critical t scientific prgress,”said Van Stan's team.(“自然科学家似乎越 来越满足于保持干燥，依靠远程传感器和采样器、 模型和虚拟实验来了解自然系统。因此，我们可能会错过重要的风暴现象、富有想象力的灵感和建立 直觉的机会——所有这些对科学进步至关重要，”Van Stan的团队说。) ”可知，Van Stan的研究小 组认为实际观察对于理解潮湿天气的复杂性至关重 要，但是自然科学家似乎越来越满足于保持干燥， 依靠远程传感器和采样器、模型和虚拟实验来了解 自然系统。故选D。
15．答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Direct bservatin, hwever, has gne beynd making up fr the shrtcmings f "umbrella science." Van Stan and clleagues see cre value in firsthand strm experiences -nt nly fr natural scientists, but als students studying climate change impacts n ecsystems.(然而，直接观察已经超越了弥补“伞科学”的缺陷。Van Stan和他的同事看到了第一手风暴经验的核心价值——不仅对自然科学家，而且对研究气候变化对生态系统影响的学生。)”可知，文章作者接下来会谈论第一手风暴经验对于研究气候变化对生态系统影响的学生和科学家的优势。故选C。
16．答案：①-⑤FEAGB
解析：这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了培养智慧的几个方法。
