The teacher starts with the basics: hw t thread a needle. Then, ver the curse f the next 30 minutes, she shws the students a few different stitches (针法), alng with hw t mend a trn shirt. The sewing class is part f a free, ne-day curse at Austin Cmmunity Cllege (ACC) called “Adulting 101”. The students range in age frm their late teens t mid-40s.
ACC has been running such prgrammes fr six years. The wrkshps are designed t help peple “successfully navigate adulthd”, even thse wh, legally and practically, have been navigating it fr quite sme time. The tpics vary frm basic — hw t dress apprpriately fr a jb interview — t advanced, such as hw t file incme taxes.
The rise in need fr adulting classes reflects, in part, the changing nature f childhd and adlescence, which have grwn mre digital and less physical. American teens spend up t nine hurs each day n screens. TikTk and YuTube d ffer handy tutrials n all manner f husewrk, but mst yung users f these platfrms are mre interested in dancing than dishwashers.
Keith Hayward, a prfessr f the University f Cpenhagen, argued that there has been a generatinal shift and that yung peple are less mature than their ancestrs were at the same age. They are escaping frm respnsibilities such as marriage, hme wning and child-raising because “adulting is hard”, as ne f his students put it. He adds that yung peple tday are als less interested in what their elder try t ffer. “If parents are nt prviding advice n life’s many essential tasks, yu’re left with these classes picking up what yu shuld have gained.”
Many will see adulting classes as prf f yungsters’ delayed develpment. But spiled children d nt acknwledge the gaps in their knwledge and try t fill them. Only a grwn-up wuld willingly spend precius free time ding smething as dull as learning hw t mend a shirt.
24. Why is the “Adulting 101” curse pened?
A. T teach digital skills.B. T make adult life smth.
C. T train experienced tailrs.D. T advance academic level.
25. What des the rise in need fr adulting classes reflect abut yung peple tday?
A. Their nature f adulting.B. Their addictin t screens.
C. Their interest in husewrk.D. Their lve fr tutrials.
26. What is Keith Hayward’s attitude twards adulting classes?
A. Dubtful.B. Negative.C. Neutral.D. Psitive.
27. What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A. Adulting classes shuld be started earlier.
B. Practical skills is a sign f becming mature.
C. Adulting classes are very dull fr grwn-ups.
D. Yung peple have a generatin gap with their parents.

Tracking heart activity becmes mre difficult when we mve, a cmmn limitatin f many current wearable devices. But researchers at the University f Missuri have fund inspiratin in an unlikely surce: the starfish.
Studying hw starfish turn themselves ver by crdinating (协调) their five arms, researchers Sicheng Chen and Zheng Yan frm Mizzu’s Cllege f Engineering develped a wearable device that imitates this structure. Their starfish-shaped mnitr can track heart health in real-time, even during mvement.
Unlike traditinal wearables like smartwatches, which rely n a single cntact pint, this device uses five flexible arms that make multiple cntact pints with the skin near the heart. This design keeps it mre stable, allwing it t cllect clearer, mre reliable heart data while the wearer is active. The device cnnects t a smartphne app, giving users real-time health insights and helping t detect ptential heart issues early n.
“Similar t a starfish, ur device has five arms, each equipped with sensrs that capture bth electrical and mechanical heart activity at the same time,” Chen said. “Mst current devices fcus n capturing nly ne signal r require separate devices t track multiple signals at the same time. This allws us t prvide a mre cmplete picture f smene’s heart health.”
The team develped an AI-pwered system that learned frm a large cllectin f heart data, including signals frm bth healthy individuals and peple with heart disease. Using smart technlgy, the system leaves ut mvement-related disruptins (干扰) and analyzes heart signals t determine if smene’s heart is healthy r shwing signs f truble. The findings are shwn n the smartphne app.
This AI-based apprach crrectly identifies heart cnditins mre than 90% f the time. Because the device has Bluetth capability, dctrs can review the data remtely, making it a cnvenient ptin fr at-hme mnitring between medical visits. “This is als a benefit ver traditinal clinical heart tests, which usually requires patients t stay still t get accurate results,” Chen said.
28. Which aspect f starfish inspired researchers?
A. Its special skin.B. Its bdy structure.
C. Its unique habitat.D. Its mving speed.
29. What advantages d the wearables have ver traditinal nes?
A. They cnnect t apps easily.B. They are cnvenient t wear.
C. They have a single cntact pint.D. They are stable with reliable data.
30. Hw des the AI-pwered system wrk?
A. By increasing the accuracy f tracking.
B. By shrtening the prcess f medical visits.
C. By prmting the cnvenience f hme use.
D. By string the data f varius heart prblems.
31. What is stressed abut the AI-based apprach in the last paragraph?
A. Its market future.B. Its Bluetth capability.
C. Its practical applicatin.D. Its limtatin in accuracy.

When asked hw he “chses” wrds fr a translatin, Damin Searls, a famus translatr, likens (比作) it t asking a reader hw they “chse” what Mr. Darcy, the main character in the nvel Pride and Prejudice, lks like when reading it. Neither is s much a chice, he says, but a respnse shaped by the text.
Translating is sme kind f reading and sme kind f writing jined tgether. If yu unpack what reading is, yu’re ging t get mst f the way t the philsphy f translatin. Accrding t Searls, translatin isn’t that different frm ther frms f writing in English. Hwever, what distinguishes translatin is the way translatrs read, a clse reading that engages deeply with a language’s structure.
When “reading like a translatr,” Searls said he must identify which linguistic elements can be mitted (省略) in English and which are intentinal stylistic chices by the authr. When translating Uwe Jhnsn’s nvel, Anniversaries, fr example, he nticed frequent “nt this but that” cnstructins (“the train leaves at nt 7:00 but 6:00”), which are mre cmmn in German than in English.
While it wuld be easy t rephrase fr smther English, he realized Jhnsn used this pattern deliberately t express a persnal visin. “We can’t just erase it because it’s nt just the German language: It’s him, the authr,” Searls said.
Searls als described his prcess when appraching a new translatin. He usually des a slw and precise first draft, which allws him t revise later withut referring t much t the surce material. “As much as yu can avid lking back at the riginal will help yu direct yur attentin t: Des this sund like it shuld sund in English?”
When asked hw t reach the pint f feeling like a reader skilled enugh t translate, Searls respnded that while sme believe mastering the surce language is necessary fr translatin, he sees mre nuance (细微差异). Thugh he knws Nrwegian well enugh t translate the wrks f Jn Fsse, he wuldn’t necessarily feel cmfrtable translating just any Nrwegian bk.
32. What was Searls’ purpse in mentining Mr. Darcy?
A. T explain the wrd chice. B. T analyze Mr. Darcy’s rles.
C. T stress the text understanding.D. T cmpare the different cntexts.
33. What d we learn frm Damin Searls’ translatin f “Anniversaries”?
A. He keeps the authr’s unique language features.
B. He changes German expressins fr smth English.
C. He makes the translatin simple with English structure.
D. He values the readability f the translated text ver the authr’s style.
34. What des the last paragraph mainly cnvey?
A. Translatin is like reading.B. Translatin is a fine-tuning prcess.
C. Translatin ends up with perfectin.D. Translatin imprves when mastered.
35. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Frm Culture t Culture: Bridging the Meanings
B. The Chices f Wrd: A Translatr’s Perspective
C. Frm Reading t Translatin: A Creative Prcess
D. The Art f Translatin: Reading Between Languages

In the heart f Tennessee lies the charming twn f Pigen Frge, a destinatin knwn fr its breathtaking landscapes and warm-hearted cmmunity. The twering peaks, dtting with a vigrus grassland, seemed t stretch twards the heavens, while the gentle mist that clung (依附) t the slpes added an air f mystery.
As we drve alng the winding rads f Pigen Frge, the beauty f the Great Smky Muntains envelped us, and the stresses f daily life melted away in the face f such inspiring beauty.

Just as we were finishing up, ur waitress apprached us with an envelpe. "This is frm M," she said with a smile.
