On a cld mrning in May, I received a fascinating e-mail frm a high schl friend, inviting me t a 10-day all-female surfing adventure in Prtugal. The ffer was irresistible, and I instantly knew my answer was yes. The trip seemed simple enugh. Ten wmen, ranging frm 30 t 45 years ld, all strangers, wuld gather n the Prtuguese cast t accept the challenge f surfing the Atlantic waves. As a fan f travel, I quickly sught permissin frm my bss fr this nce-in-a-lifetime jurney.
Thrugh my 33 years, I've bserved a cmmn adult tendency: We ften limit urselves t imprving skills we already have. There's a certain pride in imprving ur expert knwledge, becming increasingly knwledgeable in ur chsen fields, yet unintentinally, this fcus ften leaves ther skills undevelped and leads t ignring ther areas f ptential grwth.
Tw days later, I arrived in Ericeira, a charming surf twn, where I met my surfing grup. Despite ur different persnalities and backgrunds, we were all united in a passinate desire t challenge urselves, learn, tackle and grw.
The shres at Ericeira, where the beginners learn t surf, are shallw and cvered with slippery rcks. They make fr sfter waves but are difficult t navigate (驾驭). Guided by ur amazing caches, tgether, we faced the waves. Smetimes, it pured with rain, and the waves crashed arund us, but we were still ut there. And with every slip and fall, wrds f encuragement filled the air. Hnestly, I prbably spent mst f my days frzen t the bne, but that didn't matter because a new level f genuine jy and persnal achievement had been unlcked. Learning a new skill taught me the humbleness that can cme frm ding badly at smething new, and the pride that develps when yu finally manage t grasp smething yu've been wrking n.
While surfing might nt be my calling, trying it ut inspired me t take mre risks in life, t step utside f my cmfrt zne and t never stp believing in myself. Yu never knw what yu're capable f if yu dn't g ut there and try.
24. What mtivated the authr t jin the surf trip t Prtugal?
A. The lnging t seek and enjy a challenge.
B. The need t reunite with a high schl friend.
C. The lve t meet strangers with shared interest.
D. The chance t undertake wrk duties in Prtugal.
25. What is a cmmn tendency amng adults accrding t the authr?
A. They refuse t upgrade their prfessinal skills.
B. They tend t imprve their existing skills nly.
C. They avid explring new areas n purpse.
D. They are t prud t imprve themselves.
26. Which f the fllwing can best describe the authr's surfing experiences?
A. Tugh but wrthwhile. B. Cmmn and smth.
C. Bring and discuraging. D. Relaxing but unpredictable.
27. What des the text want t cnvey?
A. Birds f a feather flck tgether.B. He wh laughs last, laughs best.
C. Life begins at the end f yur cmfrt zne.D. The grass is always greener n the ther side.

Spending time utdrs, especially in green spaces, is ne f the fastest ways t imprve yur health and happiness. It can lwer stress, bld pressure and heart rate. Dctrs are increasingly taking these findings seriusly and using them t their patients.
Nw, a new study published in the Internatinal Jurnal f Envirnmental Health Research adds t the evidence and shws just hw little time it takes t get the benefits f being utside. Spending just 20 minutes in a park — even if yu dn't exercise while yu're there — is enugh t imprve well-being, accrding t the research.
Fr the study, researchers surveyed 94 adults wh visited ne f three urban parks ver the summer and fall. They were given fitness trackers t measure physical activity but were nt tld what t d in the park r hw lng t stay. Each persn als answered questins abut their life satisfactin and md — which were used t calculate a subjective well-being scre, with a maximum value f 55 — befre and after their park visit.
The average park visit lasted 32 minutes, and 30% f peple engaged in at least mderate-intensity (中等强度) physical activity while there. Well-being scres rse during the park visit in 60% f peple, with an average increase f abut 1.5 pints (frm abut 37 t 39). Fr many peple in the study, simply being in green space seemed t be enugh t make a change.
The medical cmmunity is increasingly viewing green space as a place fr their patients t gain physical and mental health benefits. Sme physicians, like Dr. Rbert Zarr, are even writing prescriptins (处方) fr it.
By writing nature prescriptins, physicians are encuraging their patients t get utdrs and take advantage f what many view t be free medicine.
28. What des the underlined wrd "It" in paragraph 1 refer t?

Frm the hills f West Virginia t the flats f rural Australia, sme f the wrld's largest telescpes are listening fr signals frm distant alien (外星的) civilizatins. The prject, knwn as SETI, is an effrt t find artificial lking electrmagnetic-radiatin (电磁辐射) signals that might have cme frm a technlgically advanced civilizatin in a far-away slar system.
A recent study describes ne f several effrts t use machine learning, a subset f AI, t help astrnmers quickly srt thrugh the large amunts f data such surveys generate. As AI reshapes many scientific fields, what prmise des it hld fr the search fr life beynd Earth? "It is a new era fr SETI research that is pening up thanks t machine learning technlgy," says Franck Marchis, a planetary astrnmer at the SETI Institute in Muntain View, Califrnia. Fr decades, the field was restricted by having hardly any data at all. Mst f the SETI searches that fllwed were als limited t a small number f stars.
In 2015, billinaire Yuri Milner funded the biggest SETI prgramme ever: the Breakthrugh Listen prject t search ne millin stars fr signs f intelligent life. But the truble is that these searches generate large amunts f data — including false psitives prduced by Earthly interference(干扰) frm mbile phnes, GPS and ther aspects f mdern life. "The biggest challenge fr us in lking fr SETI signals is nt at this pint getting the data," says Sfia Sheikh, an astrnmer at the SETI Institute." The difficult part is differentiating signals frm Earth technlgy frm the kind f signals we'd be lking fr frm technlgy smewhere else in the Galaxy.
Astrnmers at the University f Califrnia, Ls Angeles (UCLA), say they will launch a cmmunity science prject in which vlunteers will srt thrugh images f radi signals and classify them as ptential types f interference. "SETI will prbably use a mixture f classical and machine-learning appraches t srt thrugh data. Classical algrithms (经典算法) remain excellent at picking up signals, and machine learning can't d everything," says Jean-Luc Margt, an astrnmer at UCLA.
32. What is the purpse f SETI?
A. T search fr alien life in uter space.
B. T explre the gegraphy f Australia.
C. T study the ancient civilizatin f Earth.
D. T send radi signals t the distant slar system.
33. What is the key factr in SETI research?
A. The upgrade f data-string equipment.
B. The applicatin f machine-learning technlgy.
C. The develpment f radi cmmunicatin systems.
D. The inventin f the largest telescpe in the wrld.
34. What is the mst challenging part f the SETI prject?
A. Raising funds fr lng-term research.
B. Obtaining enugh data frm ne millin stars.
C. Distinguishing alien signals frm human signals.
D. Aviding interfering with GPS and mbile phnes.
35. What des the last paragraph mainly talk abut?
A. Advantages f classical algrithms.
B. Further plan fr the SETI prgramme.
C. The gal f the cmmunity-science prject.
D. Imprvements in machine-learning appraches.
