Last year, my husband and I decided t make ur 12-strey building mre f a cmmunity. We live in a small rented apartment in Park Merced, a large husing develpment. I wuld call us lwer-middle-class. A lt f nurses, bus drivers, and tradesmen live here, many f them 1st r 2nd generatin immigrants (移民).
We’re all renters. Renters cme and g and tend nt t see the buildings they live in as their hme. But it can be dne. We started with a mnthly tw-hur scial in the building lbby (前厅) n the secnd Fridays f each mnth. Sme peple came, between 15-30 each time. The events lasted tw hurs, but there wasn’t much t d besides talking, eating snacks and drinking juice. The scials were nice, but mst residents gave them a miss.
Then ne day I was n the nearby campus f San Francisc State University. A yung man frm a scial club fr students had a big sign abut “Building Cmmunity”. I asked him, “Hw d yu d that?” He said they tried t get peple t share smething abut themselves with at least ne ther persn. That made a lt f sense t me.
I bught a large wrld map. At the scial, I taped it n the lbby walls with signs that said “Where We’re Frm. Put a green sticker where yu were brn and yellw stickers where yur grandparents were brn.” Peple put up their stickers and lked where ther peple came frm. We left the map up vernight, and the next day, Saturday, mre peple played. I planned t leave the map and stickers up fr a mnth r mre. They certainly made the lbby mre interesting than the husing prject lk it usually has.
I see that there will be challenges, but I als knw that a strng cmmunity will help us live gd lives. I have the time and energy t d this wrk.

A．The cmmunity was pr.B．She lacked enugh mney.
C．Renters had n sense f belnging.D．Her neighbrs were all immigrants.
5．Hw did the authr find her earlier events?

There’s s much carbn dixide (CO2) in the air that just planting trees and prtecting frests wn’t slve the prblem. When plants and trees die, the carbn they’ve stred gets released again. Mrever, the CO2 in the atmsphere is much mre dilute than in, fr example, waste gas frm a pwer statin r a steel plant. Capturing CO2 frm the air is the mst expensive applicatin f carbn capture.
Direct Air Capture (DAC) is ne type f technlgical carbn remval, which btains CO2 directly frm the atmsphere at any lcatin, unlike carbn capture which is generally carried ut at the pint f emissins. The CO2 can be permanently stred in deep gelgical frmatins r used fr a variety f applicatins.
Graphyte is a US cmpany wrking n DA C． The cmpany claims its carbn capture methd is cheap, mainly because it lets plants d the wrk. The cmpany cllects unwanted wd prducts frm farmers and furniture cmpanies. It dries this “bimass” cmpletely s that it can’t break dwn. Graphyte then smashes (打碎) the dried plants int small bricks which it seals in a special wrapper and buries deep undergrund.
Graphyte says its prcess desn’t use much energy and can wrk anywhere. The plant and tree material the prcess uses wuld release carbn if it wasn’t treated. And the cst is less than$ 100 t capture a tn f CO2. The cmpany is building a factry, but it’s nt running yet.
Nt everyne is excited abut this carbn remval. Sme peple wrry that it will take t lng fr DAC technlgy t becme pwerful enugh t make a difference. Others wrry that fcusing n remving carbn culd take attentin away frm mre imprtant climate actins, like switching frm fssil fuels t renewable energy. But experts say the decisin isn’t t d ne r the ther. The wrld needs t end fssil fuel use and pull carbn ut f the air.
8．What des the authr intend t tell us in the first paragraph?
A．Trees can purify the air in the sky.B．Plants release mre carbn dixide.
C．Remving carbn frm air is challenging.D．CO2 emissin reductin is urgently needed.
9．What des the underlined wrd “dilute” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A．Beneficial.B．Thin.C．Harmful.D．Cncentrated.
10．What can we knw abut Graphyte’s DAC prject?
A．Its cst is relatively lw.B．It is in gd peratin nw.
C．Its wrking cnditin is demanding.D．It turns carbn int building materials.
11．What is the experts’ pinin abut DAC technlgy?
A．It will make a difference sn.
B．It can replace renewable energy in time.
C．It will result in mre envirnmental cncerns.
D．It can wrk tgether with ther climate measures.
Each f us individually is the accumulated (积累) prduct f thusands f generatins that have cme befre us in an unbrken line. Our culture and technlgy tday are als the result f thusands f years f accumulated and remixed cultural knwledge. Cumulative culture allwed humans t adapt t a diversity f envirnments and challenges. But, it is unclear when cumulative culture first develped during ancient human evlutin.
“Our earliest ancestrs have been successful at adapting t eclgical cnditins that require different kinds f prblems t be slved,” said Perreault, an assciate prfessr with the Schl f Human Evlutin and Scial Change. “Cumulative culture is key because it allws human ppulatins t build n and recmbine the slutins f prir generatins and t develp new cmplex slutins t prblems very quickly.”
As a baseline fr the cmplexity f stne tl technlgies achievable withut cumulative culture, Perreault analyzed technlgies used by chimpanzees (黑猩猩). He then analyzed changes in the cmplexity f stne tl-making techniques acrss the past 3.3 millin years f the archaelgical recrd t explre the rigin f cumulative culture. He brke dwn the cmplexity f the stne tl technlgies by the number f steps that each tl-making sequence (序列) invlved.
The results suggested that frm arund 3.3 t 1.8 millin years ag, stne tl-making sequences remained within the range f the baselines. Frm arund 1.8 millin t 600,000 years ag, making sequences began t slightly tp the cmplexity baseline. But, after arund 600,000 years ag, the cmplexity f making sequences rapidly increased. “By 600,000 years ag r s, ancient human ppulatins started relying n unusually cmplex technlgies, and we nly see rapid increases in cmplexity after that time as well,” said Perreault.
Tl-assisted fd-hunting may have been the mtive fr the earliest beginning f the evlutin f cumulative culture. Early ancient humans, 3.4 t 2 millin years ag, likely relied n strategies that require tls—like accessing meat and rgans—leading t changes in brain size, lifetime and bilgy that set the stage fr cumulative culture.
12．What des cumulative culture refer t accrding t the text?
A．Emphasizing individual develpment.
B．Paying attentin t refrming scial structure.
C．Adapting t a changing living cnditin step by step.
D．Building up technlgical imprvements ver generatins.
13．What’s Paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A．Hw Perreault cnducted the research.B．Hw imprtant stne tl technlgies were.
C．What the baseline f cumulative culture was.D．Why Perreault chse chimpanzees fr the study.
14．What happened by 600,000 years ag?
A．Tl-making sequences remained unchanged.
B．The ppulatin f the earth increased sharply.
C．The ancestrs began t make stne tls.
D．The technlgy reached a turning pint.
15．Why are strategies that require tls mentined in the last paragraph?
A．T shw the result f human brains’ changes.
B．T illustrate the mtive f cumulative culture.
C．T indicate the significance f cmmn culture.
D．T stress the eating habits f human ancestrs.
Fr cllege applicants, the essay is the place t shwcase their writing skills and let their unique vice shine thrugh. And it is a student’s chance t really speak directly t the admissins ffice, t make a gd impressin and t bst their chances f being accepted. 16 This can feel like a lt f pressure.
17 They tend t be brad, pen-ended questins, giving students the freedm t write abut a wide range f tpics. In fact, it’s challenging t think f putting yur whle life in ne essay.
Students shuld narrw their fcus and write abut a specific experience r hbby that reveals smething persnal, like hw they think, what they value r what their strengths are. 18 There are certain types f essays that typically stand ut t admissins fficers.
What’s mst imprtant is that a cllege essay is thughtful. 19 Think f the cllege essay as a meaningful glimpse f wh yu are beynd yur ther applicatin materials. After reading yur essay, the reader wn’t fully knw yu—at least nt entirely. Yur bjective is t excite the reader’s curisity and make them eager t get t knw yu. But yu shuld avid hyperble (夸张), which can lse the readers’ trust. 20
If students are having truble brainstrming ptential tpics, they can ask friends r family members fr help. Students can ask peers r family members questins such as, “What are the things yu think I d well?” Or, “What are my ddities?”
A．It’s als wise t avid using irrelevant adverbs and adjectives.
B．But they have nly several hundred wrds t make that happen.
C．It tells a stry that ffers insight int wh a student is as a persn.
D．Hwever, cllege applicants usually encunter ptentials in the essay.
E．Students can als write abut what illustrates an aspect f their backgrund.
F．S students need t utline their essay befre jumping int the actual writing.
G．There are usually several essay tpics t chse frm fr a cllege applicatin.
Yu can imagine hw nvel we fund it when my schl began ffering cking as part f the curriculum (课程). As a grwing by, I seemed t be all day lng. And the gd news was that we culd what we cked. I immediately signed up.
At the beginning f the first class, I slwly with a classic, biled egg alne. T a teenage by, the biled egg might seem like a n-brainer. I was feeling and excited.
Then the class was divided int teams t the cmplex and challenging dish—Rde Stuffed Ht Dgs. The prceeded satisfactrily. Even the baking seemed t prgress as . But my team ran int when we turned n the briler (烤箱) t brwn ur ht dgs. It really wasn’t ur . The members f anther grup were busy their ht dgs ut frm the ven and placing them n the table t cl.

I’ve been skatebarding since I was a child, and fr me, it’s much mre than just a hbby—it’s an essential part f wh I am, 36 (cnnect) me with an energetic cmmunity f like-minded individuals.
Arriving in Beijing as a 20-year-ld frm Germany, I 37 (find) skatebarding t be my cmpass (指南针) in explring this vast and unfamiliar city.
My first impressin f Beijing was its cmbinatin f ancient buildings and mdern architecture, which prvided a mix f skate spts. This cntrasted with the skate parks back hme in Eurpe, which, while well-designed and 38 (functin), lacked the histrical depth and 39 (diverse) fund in Beijing.
The skatebarding cmmunity in Beijing has als taken me 40 surprise. I remember the first time ging ut n a street skating sessin with my Canadian friend. I had sme cncerns 41 (initial), fearing that peple might be a bit 42 (reserve) arund me—a freigner. Yet, my wrries turned ut t be unnecessary. It’s this shared passin fr skatebarding 43 binds this cmmunity tgether tightly acrss the glbe.
While China’s skatebarding scene is still develping, it’s expanding rapidly. Lcal skaters, many f 44 have drawn inspiratin frm Western skate culture, are eager t carve ut their wn identities 45 make meaningful cntributins t the glbal skatebarding scene.

When I was an eleven-year-ld by finishing my last year f elementary schl, my mm gt a new jb and we wuld need t mve. It meant mving away frm my friends and ging t a cmpletely different middle schl than the ne I thught I’d be ging t.
In August, my parents and I gt t take a tur f the schl. That was when we learned that there weren’t any buses that passed ur new neighburhd. It was actually clse t the schl, s that meant I wuld be walking t and frm schl every day. At the time, bth f my parents wrked five days a week, s they fund a babysitter t be there when my tw-year-ld brther and I gt hme and watch us until my parents returned hme.
The schl year started, and in early September, we gt a massive heatwave. The middle schl was an ld building and mst f it was nt air-cnditined. At the end f thse days, I was tired and nt in any md t walk an additinal twenty minutes in the heat, s I used snack mney t call the babysitter. The babysitter, thinking he shuld nt let me suffer in the heat, came t pick me up.
I did try t call hme tw mre times ver the next tw weeks. The secnd time, I gt the sitter again. The third time, Dad answered. He was nt happy with me. “It’s nt that ht! Yu shuldn’t call the sitter away frm the huse. Yu have t start grwing up. Walk hme, and we will talk mre when yu get here.” “Okay,” I tld demanding Dad. “I wuldn’t call the sitter r yu again t be picked up.”
