I didn’t g t Santiag, Chile t lk fr friendship. In fact, Chile was nt even n my wish list.
A mid-life crisis wman, I gt a chance t study abrad. I nly wanted t learn abut glbal business, taste Suth American cuisine, and check “study abrad” ff my wish list.
On the fifth day, I jined a grup fr a neighbrhd wrk prject aided by the anti-pverty (扶贫) rganizatin. Our tasks were t build a water twer and paint the cmmunity center. Upn arrival, I culdn’t believe my eyes. It was like a scene ut f a hrrible film. That mment redefined pverty fr me because I had never seen such terrible living cnditins.

After we fed everybdy and the dishes were washed, my day was ver. But I fund myself hesitant (犹豫的) t leave. It was as if I had knwn her my whle life. I had nt predicted the unselfish heart I wuld encunter, and it was mving.
As we were waiting fr the car t pick us up, Nadia shwed me her plants that are well-maintained. I culd see that despite the hard cnditins she was passinate abut life. She made me eager t be a strnger persn. She shwed me that pverty was external, but happiness was internal (内在的).

Plenty f scientific wrk prves that children, and even adults, wh learn sign language, gain the benefits nt nly in the ability t cmmunicate with ther sign language users, but als in the wider academic wrld.
Deaf children wh learn sign language at an early age tend t perfrm better academically. This is partly due t their increased ability t cmmunicate with thse arund them. Hwever, it is als because sign language is nt, as many peple mistakenly think, a system f gestures representing wrds, but a cmplete and cmplex language system. Thus, children wh learn sign language have already learnt abut the way language wrks, which will help in future studies.
Again, fr nn-deaf children and adults wh learn sign language, the academic advantages spill ver int scial and cultural nes. Firstly, learning sign language allws the speaker t cmmunicate with a whle new cmmunity f peple and gain an understanding f hw they cmmunicate within their cmmunity. Secndly, learning a language gives rise t greater cnfidence fr that persn, as he is able t cmmunicate with smene wh may struggle t d s. And the skills f language learning can easily be applied t learning ther languages but als t ther academic pursuits.
There can be n dubt that learning sign language is a useful endeavur fr anyne — whether they are deaf themselves and live in a huse with ther deaf peple r whether they are nn-deaf and d nt knw anyne wh is. The scial, cultural and academic advantages f learning this cmplex language are diverse and shuld nt be taken lightly. And, especially with children, learning a language which helps peple with a disadvantage may encurage them in the future t d mre — vlunteering and ther such wrk. This means that the nn-deaf child can be given a sense f scial respnsibility at an early age and taught t embrace (接受) all peple — nt in spite f their differences but because f them.
8. What is sign language accrding t the authr?
A. It is a creative way f expressing ideas.
B. It is a cmplete cmplex language system.
C. It is a primary language f disabled peple.
D. It is a system f gestures representing wrds.
9. What des the underlined wrd “endeavur” in paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A. Attempt.B. Experiment.C. Incident.D. Feedback.
10. What quality can a nn-deaf child wh learns sign language acquire?
A. Being cmpetitive.B. Being curageus.
C. Being respnsible.D. Being psitive.
11. What cnclusin can we draw frm the text?
A. Learning sign language brings peple an advantage f finding a future jb.
B. The numerus advantages f learning sign language shuld be taken seriusly.
C. Nn-deaf children shuld learn sign language due t the differences f the deaf peple .
D. It’s unnecessary fr nn-deaf persn wh desn’t knw any deaf peple t learn sign language.

The new e-skin imprves tasks requiring accuracy and frce cntrl, vercming a big challenge in advancing technlgy. Unlike traditinal e-skins, this new e-skin stays accurate even when it stretches. “Much like human skin has t stretch and bend as we mve, s des e-skin,” explains Nanshu Lu, a prfessr in the Cckrell Schl.
The breakthrugh lies in an innvative hybrid respnse pressure sensr that Lu and her partners have develped ver years. Lu sees the stretchable e-skin as an imprtant part f a rbt hand that can mirrr the sftness and sensitivity f a human hand. This new e-skin technlgy senses pressure frm cntact, letting the attached machine knw hw much frce t use t, fr example, hld a cup r tuch a persn. In demnstratins, the new e-skin allwed the rbt hand t adapt t varius sensitive tasks, such as accurately measuring human pulse (脉搏) and pulse waves, securely hlding bjects withut drpping them and even handling unexpected items like cins inside a glass r pressing n a ptat chip withut breaking it.
Lu and her team are currently explring ptential applicatins, including partnering t build a rbtic arm equipped with the e-skin technlgy. They have als applied fr a basic patent fr the e-skin, indicating its ptential fr business use. In a wrld where the aging ppulatin exceeds (超过) the number f caregivers, the need fr efficient and gentle care slutins is necessary. Lu believes rbts equipped with advanced technlgies like the stretchable e-skin culd play a vital rle in dealing with this glbal challenge.
Beynd medicine, human-caring rbts culd be used in disasters. They culd search fr injured and trapped peple in an earthquake r a cllapsed building. Frm healthcare t disaster respnse, the ptential is significant. With further develpment and cperatin with rbtics cmpanies, Lu hpes t see this e-skin technlgy make its way t the market, marking the beginning f a new era f human-rbt interactin and care.
12. What advantage des the new e-skin have ver traditinal e-skins?
A. It keeps accurate even when stretching.
B. It enables rbts t mve at a fast speed.
C. It allws rbt hands t bend int all shapes.
D. It helps rbt hands cntrl with less frce.
13. What is paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A. The wide applicatins f the new e-skin.
B. The imprtant develpment f the new e-skin.
C. The majr challenge f the pressure sensr.
D. The strng functin f the pressure sensr.
14. What can rbts with the new e-skin d fr the glbal challenge f aging ppulatin?
A. Reduce healthcare csts.B. Limit glbal business use.
C. Replace human caregivers.D. Imprve medical care efficiency.
15. What is the authr’s attitude t the future f the new e-skin?
A. Dubtful.B. UnclearC. Psitive.D. Disapprving.

I was mving as fast as I culd, stepping frm rck t rck alng the uneven jetty(栈桥). Far ahead, I culd see the back f my brther’s hair and the bright range f his shrts.
“T slw, sister!” I heard Sam yell as he jumped with ease.
“I’ll shw him,” I thught, and attempted a duble jump. What a mistake! “Ouch!” My she was stuck between tw rcks. I bent dwn and that’s when I saw it: a shiny, square shaped stne, attached t a glittery gld chain. It was just lying there n the wet sand, and a few secnds later it was in my pcket.
