Shane Grss is frm Saskatchewan, Canada, a prvince far away frm the sea, s his first underwater experiences were in a cld, green lake with a dispsable film camera. Despite this, he’s always been fascinated by the cean, especially sharks, and watched Jaws cuntless times. After backpacking thrugh Australia in 2009 and diving alng the way, he decided t pursue his passin seriusly. In 2011, he mved t the Bahamas t wrk as a dive instructr, which allwed him t spend mre time in the water and imprve his phtgraphy skills.
In 2017, while diving at ne f their regular spts, “Sea Garden”, Grss and his girlfriend encuntered a turtle (海龟). They were deeply upset at the terrible scene—the turtle was trapped, struggling, and ultimately dying. Realizing there was nthing they culd d t save it, Grss remved the abandned fishing line wrapped arund the turtle and dcumented the mment. His phtgraph later wn first place in the cnservatin categry f the 2019 Internatinal Ocean Art Underwater Pht Cmpetitin, bringing attentin t the prblem f sea waste that ften ges unseen.
When asked abut his apprach t creating remarkable underwater phtgraphy, Shane Grss advises underwater phtgraphers t g beynd just ne image. He encurages them t dcument the entire scene they’re passinate abut, even if it means taking sme shts abve the water. Once yu have a stry t tell, create a sht list and keep shting until yu have recrded it fully.
Fr Shane, spending time in the cean is deeply fulfilling. “I live a marine (海洋的) lifestyle,” he says. “But mst peple dn’t share this cnnectin.” T bridge this gap, he created Bahamas Underwater, a bk cmbining stries and vivid imagery t intrduce peple t marine ecsystems and their wnders. Shane recmmends that taking time t admire the breathtaking views f the cean shuld be the initial step tward creating meaningful change — a shift frm indifference t active care.
4. What can we learn abut Shane Grss frm paragraph 1?
A. He grew up in the castal area.B. He lnged t be a dive instructr.
C. He fllwed his childhd passin.D. He did academic research n sharks.
5. Why did Shane take a pht f the sea turtle?
A. T criticize verfishing.B. T prtect natural habitats.
C. T save the injured animal.D. T highlight marine pllutin.
6. What is the key t gd underwater phtgraphy accrding t paragraph 3?
A. A large image.B. A unique scene.C. A cmplete stry.D. A strng mtivatin.
7. What des Shane suggest as the first step tward caring fr the cean?
A. Prmting green lifestyles.B. Appreciating cean’s beauty.
C. Sharing marine knwledge.D. Dcumenting nature’s wnders.

Distractin is ften said t be the majr cgnitive (认知的) crisis f ur time. In a recent article in The Atlantic, Rse Hrwitch nted that “university students have truble staying fcused n even a pem”, and many American middle and high schls have shifted frm literary texts t shrter passages.
Actually, accusatins f declining attentin are nthing new in mdernity. Even in the early 20th century, Ezra Pund bserved a shift frm petry t prse (散文), explaining it as a result f readers’ inability t engage with the linguistic cmplexity f petry. Over the decades, similar cmplaints abut attentin have cntinued.
Yet, Hrwitch suggests that rather than a lss f reading ability, we may be witnessing a shift in cnsumptin habits. Students nw view reading bks much like listening t ld recrd albums — utdated. Meanwhile, the ppularity f audibks cntinues t grw. This suggests that the issue is nt an inability t read lng nvels but rather a shift in what peple value. “Students can still read bks,” Hrwitch wrte. “They’re just chsing nt t.”
This raises a deeper questin: What kind f attentin d we truly need, and why? Psychlgists distinguish between fcused attentin and brader attentin. In the famus Invisible Grilla Experiment, participants cunting basketball passes failed t ntice a persn in a grilla suit dancing in the backgrund. A wider fcus, in cntrast, may engage different cgnitive skills and ffer unique benefits.
Culd the yunger generatin be develping valuable attentin mdes we fail t recgnize? What f the rapid, quick-fire, written exchanges f instant messaging? The art f making shrt and clever statements in 140 r 280 characters? What abut the skills and quick reactins needed in vide games? These new ways f engaging with cntent challenge us t rethink — with histry as ur guide — hw we might apprach lng-frm culture in fresh and flexible ways.
8. What des the underlined wrd “accusatins” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Criticisms.B. Origins.C. Trends.D. Indicatrs.
9. What des the increase f audibk listeners imply accrding t Hrwitch?
A. Printed bks are less accessible.B. Reading preferences have changed.
C. Digital reading devices are mre ppular.D. Mdern peple have limited reading time.
10. Why des the authr mentin the Invisible Grilla Experiment in paragraph 4?
A. T display the difficulty f multitasking.
B. T illustrate the limitatin f fcused attentin.
C. T prve the wide presence f distractin in daily life.
D. T stress the imprtance f cgnitive flexibility in sprts.
11. What will prbably be discussed next?
A. Mre valuable lessns taught by histry.B. Challenges facing the yung generatin.
C. The impact f technlgy n literacy skills.D. Strategies fr bk reading in the digital age.
D
Needles, thugh essential fr delivering many vital medicines, are nt ppular amng patients. Many peple experience discmfrt r anxiety at the sight f a needle, making injectins (注射) an unpleasant experience. Nw, new research led by Givanni Travers at the Massachusetts Institute f Technlgy (MIT) ffers a way t give medicine withut this discmfrt—by cpying hw squids (鱿鱼) sht ink and water.
Dr. Travers’s tiny autmated injectrs are packaged in capsules that patients can swallw. Once inside the digestive system, the capsules break dwn, releasing the injectrs, which then deliver drugs thrugh the surface layer f stmach r ther digestive rgans and int the subsurface tissues belw. This methd allws patients t receive treatment withut seeing r feeling a needle.
Althugh the technique is prmising, it is nt yet entirely reliable. Fr an injectr t wrk effectively, it must be psitined almst perfectly upright against the target tissue. With skin injectins, a medical prfessinal can adjust the angle by hand, but inside the digestive system, this is much mre difficult.
T slve this prblem, Dr. Traver s turned t squids, which can sht ink and water at high pressure in multiple directins. Inspired by this natural ability, he and his team wrked with a medical cmpany t develp tiny spring-laded devices that release fast streams f medicine when activated. Tests n digestive tissues frm pigs and dgs shwed that the devices can effectively give injectins even at angles belw 70°.
While human trials have yet t begin, Dr. Traver s hpes the technlgy will sn help peple with diabetes, a disease that requires the patients t get multiple injectins daily. A mre cnvenient delivery system culd make treatment easier and less stressful. But the ptential applicatins extend beynd diabetes—similar devices may ne day be used t administer vaccines, making immunizatin (免疫接种) mre accessible. If all ges well, fear f needles culd becme a thing f the past.
12. What can we learn abut the new injectrs frm the first tw paragraphs?
A. They are made frm squid ink.B. They are invisible t human eyes.
C. They enjy ppularity amng patients.D. They perate within the digestive system.
13. What challenge des Travers’s technique face?
A. Keeping the injectr at a crrect angle.B. Finding a prper site fr drug delivery.
C. Having reliable medical prfessinals.D. Accessing the deep digestive system.
14. What can we infer abut the technlgy frm the last paragraph?
A. It prves effective in human trials.B. It may cure peple f needle anxiety.
C. It shws prmises fr future applicatins.D. It will reduce the cst f diabetes treatment.
15. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. The Secret f Squid Ink ShtingB. Painless Injectin: A Gift frm Squid
C. Nature: A Guide fr Medical InnvatinD. The Develpment f Injectin Techniques

Mary watched as students crwded arund a ntice annuncing that the schl’s radi statin was lking fr a secnd hst. Butterflies filled her stmach—she had always dreamed f becming a campus hst.
The radi statin was a big deal: it aired music, schl annuncements, and entertaining shws that everyne tuned int during lunch breaks. Olivia, the current hst, was cnfident and talented, earning widespread admiratin. In cntrast, Mary was naturally shy, and speaking in frnt f thers made her nervus. Still, she decided t give it a try, even as a classmate remarked, “Yu? Yu can barely read alud in class withut stumbling (磕磕绊绊)!”
Nt discuraged, Mary practiced every evening by reading alud frm her textbks. At first, she stumbled ver her wrds, but gradually her reading grew smther and her prnunciatin clearer. She even brrwed bks n public speaking frm the library t learn vcal techniques. While her classmates chatted and laughed, she quietly absrbed every detail, determined t build her skills.
The day f the interview finally arrived. Hlding the cld micrphne, Mary felt her hands grw sweaty. She read the required texts perfectly—rehearsed (排练) thusands f times—but she struggled during the imprvised (即兴的) part.
“Sir, I’ve been practicing fr mnths, and I’m willing t wrk hard t learn,” she begged.
Mr. Carter smiled gently and said, “I appreciate yur determinatin and yur excellent reading. But during a live bradcast, anything can happen, and yu need t draw yur audience’s attentin with genuine emtin rather than simply reading frm a script.”
That day, n ne passed the interview; everyne left except Mary. Lst in thught, she realized, “The prblem isn’t with my prnunciatin r reading…” It suddenly struck her that she culd jin the radi team in a supprting rle t learn what it truly takes t be a hst.
