Amng its treasures is Ninsn’s first New Yrk purchase: The Gld Cast Yesterday and Tday, a 1940s phtbk dcumenting Ghana’s histry befre it gained independence in 1957. “It reminds us where we’ve been and where we’re ging,” he says.

A few mnths ag, when I received an email abut an available alltment(小块菜园地)in my area, I struggled t remember when I had signed up fr ne. It turns ut I had dne s tw years ag, fuelled by my envy fr peple wh have their wn gardens. Back then, all I wanted was a small bit f utdr space that felt like my wn, t plant flwers, r herbs. A place where I culd read and write in the sun, safe frm distractins.
Fast frward t nw, I spend hurs a week swing, weeding, watering and harvesting with my husband after seeking guidance frm family and watching beginner’s gardening YuTube vides. Given that I knew nthing abut gardening at the start, the fact that I’ve managed t grw anything feels like a miracle.

Seasnality has als taken n a new meaning. I knew f curse that all fresh fd has its “seasn”, yet abundant harvests cme with a lessn in impermanence(无常). Fresh prduce ges ff quickly nce ripened and picked. And s I’ve turned t the ld craft f preservatin — learning what t bil and freeze, pickle(腌渍), r make int jam — t make things last.
While gardening is a welcme escape frm the chas f the mdern wrld, yu can’t avid the reality f the climate crisis. This year, a wet summer in the UK meant terrible t mst plants.
As I cntinue t tend my alltment, I d s with a sense f humility, wnder and excitement. What started as a desire fr a small patch f green has grwn int smething much mre significant — a cnnectin t my lcal envirnment, a respect fr the fd I eat and an awareness f the fragile natural systems that sustain us. In the beginning, I was wrried I’d fail the alltment; instead, I’m finding myself grwing alngside it and appreciate what it has brught t me.

When Strauss’s first wife passed away, it was a shck fr him and their then-10-year-ld daughter, Mlly. Seeing her facing a challenge she really wasn’t prepared fr, Strauss naturally turned t what he knws best: strytelling.
“I had the idea that perhaps stries f great heres and the way they met challenges and hardships in their lives culd be inspiratinal t her,” Strauss says. The principal at his daughter’s elementary schl had lst her wn mther when she was nine and develped a clse bnd with Mlly. Her schl hsted the first plays, and the principal advised him t design the plays t fit in with the standard schl curriculum, s that teachers culd achieve their educatin gals alng with Strauss’s bjectives.
Strauss calls his cllectin f plays the Spirit Series, “because it’s a celebratin f the human spirit and because ur jb is t spirit students ver a threshld (门槛) in a transfrmative way”. Unlike in regular theater plays, the Spirit Series plays leave rm fr the children t plug in their wn dialgue, put themselves in the histric figures’ shes and write essays abut big questins psed by the histric figures in the plays, fr instance: What d yu want ut f life when yu grw up?

The results students and teachers reprt are striking: Mre than a quarter f students imprve academically and in scial and emtinal skills. Mre than 90 percent f students reprt imprved teamwrk after participating, and nearly 82 percent f participating teachers said that the series enhances fcus.
Tday, the Spirit Series has expanded int Spirit Crps, which prvides vide-assisted strytelling that Strauss is rlling ut mre widely this year, and Spirit Wrks, a caching prgram fr teachers, “because yu can’t expect students t g where yu can’t lead them,” Strauss says. “Transfrmative utcmes in classrms begin with self-transfrmatin.”

Just ver a decade ag, a stry spread abut a man wh was trapped in his snw-cvered car fr tw mnths during an extremely cld Swedish winter. Peter Skyllberg, 44 years ld at that time, became trapped in his car, near the city f Umea in nrtheast Sweden.
He was discvered 60 days after he went missing — when tw peple n snwmbiles passed the buried car, thinking it was abandned. When they cleared the windw and lked inside, they saw smething mving and infrmed emergency services. Ebbe Nyberg, a lcal plice fficer at the scene, said the man was in a sleeping bag and culd talk a little, but he was very weak. The man appeared t have survived by drinking melted snw, but there was n fd in the car.
Dr. Ulf Segerberg, the chief medical fficer at Nrrland University Hspital, said he had never seen a case like it. He explained that the man survived thanks t the ‌“igl (冰屋) effect” created by his snw-cvered car. Even in very cld temperatures, igls can be warm inside because bdy heat is kept in by the snw walls. The man’s car, cvered in thick snw, wrked like a blanket.
The surce f heat was his bdy’s metablism (新陈代谢), thugh it must have been very lw. Bdy heat is prduced when the bdy turns fd int energy. Since the man hadn’t eaten prperly fr weeks, his metablism wuld have been very slw, but it prduced enugh heat t keep him alive, like a tiny candle in the dark. ‌“If yu have gd clthes, yu wuld survive in thse temperatures and be able t keep yur bdy temperature,” said Dr. Segerberg.
Althugh prtected frm the winter cld, his bdy temperature had drpped t arund 31℃ — which is dangerusly lw. A healthy persn’s temperature is usually arund 37℃. Skyllberg was lucky and nly needed treatment in a regular hspital ward. His stry is remarkable and can prvide sme medical implicatins because f bth the extremely lw temperatures and the extrardinary amunt f time his bdy managed t stand them.
1．What did the tw men d when they fund Peter?
A．They made emergency calls.B．They gave him sme fd.
C．They sent him a sleeping bag.D．They wrapped him in a blanket.
2．Hw did Dr. Ulf Segerberg prbably feel abut Peter’s survival?
A．Universal.B．Upsetting.C．Unbelievable.D．Unaccuntable.
3．Hw did Peter mainly manage t stay alive during the 60 days?
A．By eating fd.B．By candlelight.
C．By wearing thick clthes.D．By his bdy heat.
4．What can we knw frm the last paragraph?
A．The bdy’s metablism speeds up in cld weather.
B．Peter’s case is meaningful in the medical field.
C．A slight drp f bdy temperature is deadly.
D．Peter needed lng-term treatment.

Last summer at a bkstre, my sn Henry was fascinated by the cver f the first nvel frm Peter Brwn’s middle-grade trilgy (三部曲). He then finished it in just tw days. “Dad, why did The Wild Rbt have t be s sad?” He tearfully asked me.
The stry is set n a remte island, where a rbt named Rz learns t survive and cmmunicate with the island’s creatures, and becmes part f the cmmunity. Fr my sn, it was the first bk he discvered n his wn; the first t impact him with the mix f tragedy and jy.
When I finished the bk, I knew why Henry lved it. In ur bk club discussin, he described hw Brwn’s pictures and wrds had made the stry feel real. When talking abut its final scenes, where Rz leaves t find repairs fr her injured bdy, Henry cried again. His previus reading experiences had cheerful, “happily-ever-after” endings, but this bk intrduced him t the beauty f cmplex emtins. I tried t explain hw sadness can enhance the meaning f happy mments, but failed t fully cnvince him.
Once ur discussin ended, Henry requested t buy The Wild Rbt Escapes and instantly fell in lve with it. He read the first tw bks repeatedly, s yu can imagine his excitement when we finally gt a cpy f The Wild Rbt Prtects.

And, here’s smething special abut Rz: her physical clumsiness and cnfusin abut life, cnveyed thrugh her expressive eyes and dwnturned muth. Her stry reflects the challenges f surviving in a strange place, much like a child’s jurney. Readers lve Rz. They learn frm her. Even better, they learn alngside her. Rz gave Henry the pwer t push thrugh the first bk’s sad parts, getting him ready t appreciate that, smetimes, sadness isn’t a bad thing t feel.
1．What made the authr read The Wild Rbt?

As the leader f an imprtant prject, she met unexpected prblems and small mistakes that led t failure. This bad event left her in deep self-dubt, guilt, and a deep fear f taking n new tasks. She started aviding wrk chances, thinking any challenge wuld end in failure, and finally asked a cach fr help.

They made careful answers t hurtful cmments like “Yur prject really failed, didn’t it?” t help her face such wrds withut breaking dwn.
During a key meeting, Lily still fcused t much n her mistakes, seeing them as a sign f her lack f ability. The cach then tld a persnal stry: nce, after preparing a lt fr a public speech, they made mistakes in sme parts but were still praised fr their try.

The entire schl quickly united, standing tgether with Searle. On his return t the schl, he fund 800 students standing utside the gates in the rain, shwing their supprt.
Thugh the gvernment eventually allwed him t return, he decided t leave the schl in 1974.

She’d read bks fr schl, but getting her t d that was like pulling teeth, and n her wn she’d read graphic nvels and listened t “Harry Ptter” audibks. Nne f thse activities became a gateway t deep reading.
As a lifelng reader, I understand hw reading enhances life. Yet, I fund it difficult t cmmunicate this t my daughter. She claimed t dislike reading and her friends als “weren’t int” reading.

During my early years, I fcused n eye-catching landscape phtgraphy. I spent time in the Himalayas, Patagnia and Tasmania and returned with pictures f breathtaking beauty which I thught were “awesme”. But a ne-mnth camping trip t the Menindee lakes alng Darling-Baaka in Australia shifted my perspective; Phtgraphy is mre than taking phts.
As I became increasingly familiar with the place, I learned that human activities led t widespread defrestatin and drught in the area, resulting in many dead trees. Driving acrss the regin, I recalled that Sydney was blanketed by smke fr mnths n end as bushfires swept thrugh the east cast. Frtunately, the La Niña weather cycle reached Australia, increasing rainfall and causing the cntinent’s shrt-lived rivers t spring back t life. Yet, the image f bushfires stayed with me, and I felt driven t d smething. That was when the pht Blaze came int being.
I spke t the lcal authrity, explaining that I hped t create a “burning” tree as a beacn (灯塔) t draw peple’s attentin t defrestatin. They shwed great interest because fire is an integral part f the Australian farming and the natives.
I cnnected a few f the gas canisters (罐) generally used fr barbecues t flexible gas lines called “slinkies”, which culd be wired up the back f the tree, away frm the tree and ut f sight f the public. These prduced an utline f flames when I lit them, as if the tree were n fire. It was lit fr 15 secnds while I gt the sht, and fire-fighting equipment was prepared. Even thugh the tree was dead, it was still a vital habitat. But the gas flames did n damage and the insects that lived inside were unharmed.

I was shcked. Then I realized that the prblem was the questin itself. They culd have written pages n the necessity f cmputers, but writing, in and f itself, simply didn’t strike them as imprtant. This wuld have t change.
As a new unit started, I asked everyne t write a persuasive piece n a health-related tpic f their chice. This time they fund the exercise much mre interesting. Fr the next tw assignments, a persnal-narrative unit fllwed by a creative-writing wrkshp, I nly required that the piece meet the specificatins f its genre (体裁) and that it cntain a thesis. The results were staggering. The students tk n diverse tpics and turned in stries, 10 t 20 pages each, with characters that bradened my view and tuched my heart.
I walked int class believing that writing is imprtant as a means f cmmunicatin. Hwever, my students demnstrated smething mre imprtant t me. When the final bell rang in June, I walked away with a yearbk full f messages abut writing’s mst pwerful significance — the ability t cnnect peple, t put us in anther’s skin, t teach us what it means t be human.

3.【2024浙江1月卷】When was the last time yu used a telephne bx? I mean t make an actual phne call — nt t shelter frm the rain. Ages ag， right? The last time I used a phne bx fr its intended purpse was…2006. I was cnducting auditins (试演) fr my play in my tiny ld shared huse in Lndn. Hping t impress sme talented actrs t cme and wrk fr me fr nthing, I spread sme thrws ver the sfas and lit candles t make it seem a bit mre ”yung prfessinal”.
As I rushed utdrs t empty the wastepaper baskets, the dr swung shut behind me. Suddenly I was lcked utside. My mbile phne was inside, but luckily there was a telephne bx acrss the street. S, I called Directry Assistance, gt put thrugh t ur landlady’s managing agent, and had a spare key sent t me with just enugh time t get back in befre the actrs arrived.
As it has been many years since I last used ne, I shuld hardly be surprised that then are n lnger any public telephnes near my huse.

Often the pairings f bks and settings have been purely accidental: "Mby Dick" n a three-day crss-cuntry train trip: “The Magic Muntain” in a New England beachside cttage with n lcks n the drs, n telephnes r televisins in the rms, and little t d beynd rw n the salt pnd.

Hw appealing t simply fall back n a favrite-nce mre int “The Waves” r “Justine,” which feels almst like cheating, t exciting and t much fun t prperly belng in serius literature.
And then there’s Stendhal’s “The Red and the Black,” which happens t be the name f my favrite ccktail (鸡尾酒) f the summer, created by Michael Ceccni at Savy and BackFrty. It is easy t drink, and kncking back three r fur seems like such a delightful idea. Ceccni's thery: "I take whatever’s fresh at the green market and turn it int liquid."
