Mre than 20 years ag, Yung­Chi Cheng, a Yale prfessr in drug develpment fr cancer, had a pineering idea: what if he culd unlck the ptential f ancient Chinese medicines fr treating cancer? What if he culd design btanical drugs that wuld make traditinal cancer treatments wrk better? N ne had dne it befre. Fellw researchers and experts advised him t change curse, because develping btanical drugs was t cmplicated and t risky. But Cheng didn't let the idea g.
Nw, in a landmark mment in cancer research, Cheng and research partners are launching the first internatinal clinical trial fr a btanical drug, YIV­906. Shwu­Huey Liu, a pstdctral researcher in Cheng's Yale lab, spent hurs leafing thrugh ancient Chinese texts at Yale's library, seeking the prperties f Chinese herbs. She returned with Huang Qin Tang, a 1，800­year­ld treatment fr stmach illnesses, based n which the team develped a drug and tested it n ne thusand mice.
What fllwed were years f additinal testing f the drug's effectiveness fr a range f cancers in multiple human studies invlving ver 200 patients. The psitive effects displayed again and again. YIV­906 nt nly reduced the side effects f radiatin treatment, but als led t faster recvery and lnger survival rates.
All they need nw are larger data sets. When the results f the internatinal trial are available abut three years frm nw, YIV­906 may find itself next in a lng line f breakthrugh drugs develped frm natural prducts, which includes a malaria(疟疾)treatment develped frm the Chinese herb qingha, the discvery f which led t a Nbel Prize fr chemist Tu Yuyu.
It has been a lng jurney, but if Cheng and his team are successful, it culd create a new apprach fr treating cancer. They called the new apprach “WE” medicine, a cmbinatin f Western medicine and Eastern medicine. “It's a ttally new mdel. I've met with a lt f dubt, but I think the results will speak fr themselves，” Cheng said.
( )24. What did fellw researchers initially think f Cheng's research?
A. Creative. B. Cmprehensive. C. Cnventinal. D. Challenging.
( )25. Why did Liu refer t ancient Chinese texts?
A. She wanted t questin ancient treatment methds.
B. She desired t find inspiratin fr treating diseases.
C. She tried t dcument the histry f Chinese herbs.
D. She determined t find a cure fr stmach illnesses.
( )26. What des paragraph 3 mainly talk abut?
A. Steps f the drug testing. B. The applicatin f YIV­906.
C. Effects f the clinical trial. D. The effectiveness f YIV­906.
( )27. Why des the authr mentin Chinese herb qingha?
A. T illustrate the value f btanical drugs.
B. T advcate the adptin f “WE” medicine.
C. T praise Tu's cntributins t drug develpment.
D. T highlight its success in medicine develpment.

Media literacy(素养) is finally getting sme late­arriving attentin. Whether it's the increasing awareness f plitical disinfrmatin r the threat f AI, discussins abut media literacy are n the rise. The adptin f media literacy in the classrm, hwever, stagnates．
The driving frce fr prviding kids with media literacy skills ften gets lst in the mral panic ver technlgy and kids. Fear has verrun reasn, and peple can't decide whether t blame scial media, mbile devices, tech cmpanies, r the Internet. They are cncerned with claims that technlgy and scial media are the causes f teenage mental health issues despite the weak assciatins. In respnse, t many slutins are “strich plicies”(鸵鸟政策) that want t ban devices and shut dwn scial media but dn't address mre fundamental issues.
Plicies that set age limits n scial media access and restrict devices during schl t minimize disturbance can be helpful but are incmplete slutins. Scial media didn't invent bullies(霸凌) r the enrmus effect f peer pressure. Scial media platfrms may be a new battlegrund, but they are nt the surce. Unfrtunately, many current plicies ignre the need t teach kids hw t manage these challenges. There is frighteningly little attentin paid t preparing kids t make gd decisins when they will, unavidably, get nline.
On the bright side, the rapid develpment f AI and increasing attentin t the amunt f misinfrmatin nline have helped nrmalize the acceptance f media literacy as a cre skill. While suggestins t limit inapprpriate device use, increase face­t­face scializatin, and engage in utdr play are beneficial, they d nt build the cre skills that will keep kids safe ffline and are fundamental t well­being and life success: gd citizenship, self­awareness and self­cntrl. Thse things take teaching, whether yu are nline r utside.
Media literacy is an essential life skill that, nce learned, can be applied t any cntent. While waiting fr public educatin t catch up, parents and educatrs can build media literacy skills at hme with numerus resurces, ranging frm family technlgy cntracts and discussin guides t easy activities that can be dne at hme with kids.
( )28. What des the underlined wrd “stagnates” in the first paragraph prbably mean?
A. Gets far ahead. B. Falls apart suddenly.
C. Falls well shrt. D. Gets started fficially.
( )29. What causes peple's mral panic ver technlgy and kids?
A. Belief in the rapid grwth f new technlgies.
B. Cncern ver cutting kids ff frm the Internet.
C. Inability t balance the use f scial media and health.
D. Fear f technlgy causing mental health issues in teenagers.
( )30. What des paragraph 3 f the text fcus n?
A. The surces f peer pressure.
B. The benefits f minimizing disturbance.
C. The prblems f current plicies.
D. The disadvantages f scial media platfrms.
( )31. Which f the fllwing belngs t media literacy?
A. Reducing scial media expsure. B. Applying critical thinking t media.
C. Increasing face­t­face interactins. D. Recgnizing the dangers f scial media.
D
Decisin fatigue(决策疲劳) is a psychlgical phenmenn where the quality f decisins declines after a lng sessin f decisin­making. It is caused by the limited mental energy we have fr making chices each day. While many f us believe we are lgical beings capable f weighing every ptin carefully, decisin fatigue shws hw ur mental resurces can be used up ver time.
One f the key studies n this phenmenn was cnducted in the cntext f parle hearings(假释听证会). Researchers fund that judges were mre likely t apprve f parle early in the day r after a meal break. As the day prgressed and the judges made mre decisins, they were increasingly likely t maintain their previus decisins, denying parle simply because it required less mental effrt.
Decisin fatigue nt nly affects majr life chices but als everyday decisins. Fr instance, peple ften reprt struggling t decide what t eat fr dinner after a lng day. Similarly, t many chices, such as when lking thrugh streaming platfrms r nline stres, can leave individuals feeling cnfused, leading them t abandn the prcess entirely r settle fr a less satisfying ptin.
T vercme decisin fatigue, sme well­knwn figures have adpted strategies t simplify their daily rutines. Fr example, Facebk funder Mark Zuckerberg is famus fr wearing the same style f gray T­shirts t minimize unnecessary chices. Similarly, Nbel Prize­winning physicist Albert Einstein was knwn fr wning multiple identical suits t avid wasting energy n deciding what t wear each day. In a different cntext, authr Haruki Murakami has shared that he maintains a strict daily rutine, including specific writing hurs and exercise, t free up mental capacity fr his creative wrk.
Understanding decisin fatigue can help us structure ur lives mre effectively. Priritizing imprtant decisins earlier in the day r setting up rutines t minimize unnecessary chices are strategies t preserve mental energy. By managing ur mental resurces wisely, we can make sund decisins and reduce the stress assciated with verwhelming chices.
( )32. What leads t decisin fatigue accrding t the text?
A. The lack f time t make decisins.
B. The difficulty f making lgical chices.
C. The stress frm making imprtant decisins.
D. The limited mental energy fr decisin­making.
( )33. What des the study n parle hearings reveal?
A. Judges are much stricter after lng breaks.
B. Decisin fatigue can lead t unfair utcmes.
C. Fatigue causes judges t avid cmplicated cases.
D. External factrs have n impact n decisin­making.
( )34. What des the authr suggest readers shpping nline d?
A. Make quick decisins. B. Cmpare different prducts.
C. Limit the number f chices. D. Chse the mst ppular prducts.
( )35. What is the purpse f adpting rutines?
A. T reduce the stress f daily wrk.
B. T increase decisin­making quality.
C. T enhance verall life satisfactin.
D. T create mre decisin­making chances.

I had always been cautius arund Max. He was the quiet kid in ur grade, the ne wh sat at the back f the classrm with his hd(连衣帽) pulled lw ver his face. Max rarely spke t anyne, and when he did, his wrds were rudely brief and ften misunderstd. Rumrs(谣言) abut him spread like wildfire—sme said he gt int fights after schl, thers claimed he had nce stlen a teacher's wallet. I didn't knw if any f them was true, but I stayed away, just like everyne else.
Then ne Friday mrning, Max didn't shw up t class. A lw vice f curisity spread thrugh the rm, and sn enugh, theries abut his absence started flying. “He gt suspended，” whispered a girl next t me. “I heard he struck a guy utside the library.” I wasn't surprised, and ndded in agreement.
Later that day, I fund myself at the park, enjying the first warm day f spring. That's when I saw him—Max—sitting alne n the swings. His usual guarded expressin was gne, and replaced by smething I hadn't expected: sadness. Against my better judgment, I walked ver.
“Hey，” I said awkwardly.
Max lked up, surprised. “What d yu want？”
“I... just saw yu here and thught I'd say hi.”
He gave me a strange lk but said nthing. I was abut t walk away when I nticed a wrinkled piece f paper in his hand. “What's that？” I asked.
Fr a mment, he hesitated. Then, with a shrug, he handed it t me. It was a hspital discharge frm, and the name n it wasn't his—it was his yunger sister's. I lked at him, cnfused.
“She's been sick fr mnths，” Max explained, his vice barely heard. “Yesterday was bad. My mm culdn't leave wrk, s I stayed at the hspital and lked after her all night.”
It hit me then hw wrng we had all been abut Max. The tugh utward appearance, the distance—he wasn't trying t push peple away. He was carrying a weight nne f us understd.
