fairs. While ther graduates were busy ging thrugh interviews, Jiang and her classmates easily landed jbs due t

In the Digital Age, we’ve grwn accustmed t instant gratificatin. With a few clicks, we can access
infrmatin, shp nline, and cmmunicate with peple acrss the glbe. Hwever, this cnvenience has led t a
decline in patience. Research suggests that practicing patience can actually imprve ur well-being and lead t
better utcmes in varius aspects f life.
第 5页/共 12页
Patience has lng been regarded as a virtue, and nw, scientific evidence firmly supprts its numerus benefits.
Studies have shwn that practicing gratitude and patience can reduce stress, increase happiness, and even imprve
decisin-making skills. Fr example, delaying immediate rewards in favr f lng-term benefits can lead t greater
satisfactin and success. This is because patience allws us t think mre clearly and avid impulsive actins that
may have negative cnsequences.
Mrever, patience is crucial in building strng relatinships. In a wrld where instant cmmunicatin is the
nrm, peple ften expect immediate respnses. Hwever, taking the time t listen and understand thers can lead
t deeper cnnectins and mre meaningful interactins. Fr instance, putting ff watching a favrite shw t
spend quality time with family r friends can strengthen bnds and create lasting memries.
Despite these benefits, many peple struggle t be patient. The cnstant stream f ntificatins and the
pressure t respnd immediately can make it difficult t practice patience. Hwever, small changes in behavir can
make a big difference. Fr example, setting aside specific times t check emails r scial media can help reduce
the-urge t respnd immediately. Additinally, practicing mindfulness and fcusing n the present mment; can
imprve ne’s ability t remain patient.
While the Digital Age has brught many cnveniences, it has als weakened ur patience. By acknwledging
the significance f patience and making a cnscius-effrt-t-cultivate-it-in-ur-daily-lives, we can experience
remarkable imprvements in ur mental health, and verall quality f life.

As peple are becming mre scially cnscius abut where their fd cmes frm and hw it impacts the
planet, they are chsing animal-free plant-based ptins. Cw-free meat has been arund fr quite sme time and
the ppularity f brands like Beynd Meat and cultivated meat frm Aleph Farms and thers are saring. While
there are a large number f plant-based milk substitutes, nne f them have the same taste f cw’s milk. Nw, an
Israeli fd-tech startup Remilk created real dairy prducts withut harming a single cw r the planet.
The cmpany stresses that their prduct Remilk is nt a milk substitute but rather is the real deal. Made frm a
special prcess called micrbial fermentatin (微生物发酵), milk is manufactured in a lab instead f in a cw. And
the end prduct is very healthy. “In a very simple way, we take the gene that encdes fr the milk prtein,” said
Aviv Wlff, CEO f Remilk. “The gene functins as an instructin bk fr the prductin f the prtein it encdes.
And s, we insert the gene int a micrbe that we’ve develped and it instructs ur micrbe t prduce the specific
prtein in a very efficient way.”
The cmpany says that the lab-prduced milk tastes identical t the real thing and they hpe t eventually
replace cws by creating every dairy prduct sld. They expect t rll ut plant-based cheese and ygurt in additin
t milk. “Remilk was funded with the missin t stp using animals t prduce ur fd because, as dairy lvers,
we realize that giving up n milk is nt an ptin,” Wlff said. “But tday’s milk cmes with an unreasnable price
tag. The dairy industry is destructive t ur planet, ur health, and ur animals, and is simply nt sustainable
anymre.”
The envirnmental price tag f dairy farming is way t high. Accrding t the Wrld Wildlife Fund, dairy
cws add a huge amunt f greenhuse gasses t the atmsphere and cntribute t glbal warming and climate
change as well as ful the air arund them. Dairy peratins cnsume large amunts f water and run-ff f
manure (粪肥) and fertilizers frm these farms get int lcal waterways. The prductin f Remilk uses nly 5
percent f the resurces and prduces nly I percent f the waste f prducing cw’s milk accrding t the
cmpany. And they accmplish this by being 100 percent cruelty-free unlike dairy farms.
12. What is paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A. The prductin f Remilk. B. The nutritinal value f Remilk.
C. The rle f gene in making prtein D. The prcess f micrbial fermentatin.
13. What can we knw frm Wlff’s wrds in paragraph 3?
A. Remilk was set up fr animal prtectin. B. Dairy industries shuld be shut dwn.
第 7页/共 12页
C. Remilk aims t prduce animal-free fd. D. Prices f cw’s milk are saring these days.
14. What des the underlined wrd “ful” prbably mean in the last paragraph?
A. Clean. B. Heat. C. Pllute. D. Cnsume.
15. What can we infer frm the passage?
A. Drawing n gene technlgy, Remilk has develped a variety f dairy prducts.
B. Cnventinal dairy industry is anything but ec-friendly.
C. The new technlgy adpted by Remilk transfrms the gene f cws.
D. It’ll be sme time befre the public get accustmed t the milk substitutes.

My stry started ne autumn mrning, at the bend n a path.
I was 13 years ld, and was n the way t schl. It was the first time I had caught sight f a fx. Fascinated t
the pint that I frgt all fear, I dared t g up t it. I had never cme s clse t a wild animal. There was nbdy
else arund, nly me and the fx.
“Hey, fx!” I tried t greet it, thugh my vice was s weak that it felt like I was saying hell t myself. It
didn’t hear me. It stayed there and I watched it. My heart was beating flat ut. It was s cute. Fr a mment, I
thught I might be able t tuch it.
Thrughut the day at schl, I culd nly think f the fx at the big beech (山毛榉) tree. At my return t the
place where we met, I was sure I’d find it there.
And I did. This time I gathered a little bit mre curage and called ut t it, “Fx!” Of curse it escaped. But
that nly made me lng t meet it again. I decided that if I culd find its kennel (洞) and catch it, I wuld try and
tame (驯服) it, making it my friend.
Thus, I spent mst f my free time in the frests trying t find the fx during the fllwing mnths. But I
never saw it again befre winter came. During the winter, I fllwed its ftprints far acrss the fields. Suddenly I
was alarmed by the hwling f wlves near me. I ran away frightened, stumbled and hurt my ankle. It healed very
slwly, s that I had t stay at hme during the winter, reading a bk abut animals f the frest and fxes.
