In August 2024, tw high schl students, Rsa Mendza Ssa and Shanni Valeria Mra Fajard, frm Mexic were awarded the Diplma f Excellence at the 2024 Stckhlm Junir Water Prize. It is a cmpetitin fr students aged 15 t 20 wh have develped research prjects that can help slve majr water challenges. The cmpetitin attracts tens f thusands f students frm abut 35 cuntries each year.
The tw girls develped a prcess t efficiently reuse inked water, a cmmn side prduct in varius industries, making it a useful resurce fr grwing vegetables. This methd nt nly helps t save water but als prmtes green agriculture.
The prject idea was inspired by the girls’ link with their cmmunity’s textile heritage. “In ur village, textiles are nt just prducts; they are a symbl f ur traditins, made with techniques passed dwn thrugh generatins,” explained Ssa, “but the use f artificial dyes (染料)mled t the direct dispsal f dirty water int ur envirnment.” This threatened their lcal water bdies and sil, endangering bth the lcals’ health and their envirnmentally friendly practices.
Faced with this dilemma, they made a filtratin(过滤)system at hme with materials frm their area. They filled fur cntainers with different kinds f materials, including cttn, charcal, gravel, and sand. Then they measured pH levels and clratin befre and after filtratin. They nted changes in pH values, which nw ranged frm 7 t 8, making the water safe t drink.
The filtered water was then used t help spinach and radish seeds grw, and mre tests are being planned fr ther apprpriate vegetables. “By recycling and using water again, we can keep the envirnment clean while preserving ur heritage,” said Ssa.
24. What was the main achievement f the tw Mexican girls?
A. Develping water testing equipment.B. Inventing new textile dyeing techniques.
C. Establishing a preservatin rganizatin.D. Recycling inked water fr green agriculture.
25. What inspired the tw girls’ prject?
A. The mtivatin t save water.B. The pllutin caused by textile.
C. The demand fr useful resurces.D. The science cmpetitin held by schl.
26. Why did the girls measure the pH levels f the filtrated water?
A. T cmpare the water envirnment.B. T recrd the water quality changes.
C. T prve the effectiveness f the system.D. T find ut suitable materials fr filtratin.
27. Which statement best describes the impact f the prject?
A. It benefits eclgical and cultural prtectin.
B. It prmtes internatinal water cmpetitins.
C. It priritizes industrial prfits ver traditins.
D. It addresses the lcal gvernment’s strategies.

Many travellers are familiar with the UNESCO’s Wrld Heritage List. Hwever, less is knwn abut the rganizatin’s List f Wrld Heritage in Danger. It currently specifies 53 Wrld Heritage sites under threat f “serius and specific dangers” due t factrs such as climate change, armed cnflict, and develpment pressures. The accelerated degeneratin f these cultural treasures is a reality that shuld cncern the wrld, since the yunger generatin may nt have the pprtunity t visit them.
Fr this reasn, insurance cmpany Budget Direct, and NeMam Studis, a creative studi based in the UK, have created a series f GIFs t restre Wrld Heritage sites and demnstrate what these ruins wuld have lked like if they had been preserved.
Drawing attentin t sites at risk, the prject aims t give everyne the pprtunity t visit these sites virtually. It started with in-depth research arund the sites n the List f Wrld Heritage in Danger. Based n the results, the team made a selectin accrding t tw main criteria: First, they were man-made places. Secnd, they still had standing elements. Fcusing n the selected sites, the team wrked with architects Jelena Ppvic and Keremcan Kirilmaz and industrial designer Erdem Batirbek t research and illustrate six f these legendary lcatins.
In this series f GIFs, six sites are digitally restred t their frmer glry. They include Hatra in Iraq, Leptis Magna in Libya, Palmyra in Syria, Prtbel-San Lrenz in Panama, Nan Madl in the Federated States f Micrnesia as well as the Old City f Jerusalem and its Walls.
Time des nt stand still, and neither des technlgy. Thanks t these phtrealistic images and electrnic devices, we can travel, withut leaving hme, t thse places that, whatever their future may be, will always be part f the cllective memry.
