Living in Hanau, Germany, 67-year-ld Rita Ebel, wh uses a wheelchair fr mst f her mbility, discvered that many lcal businesses were nt accessible after her accident. The cmmn respnse frm shp wners was that she culd simply knck n the dr fr assistance. Hwever, Rita knew that fr smene like her, wh values independence, this was nt a practical slutin.
Taking initiative, Rita decided t create her wn wheelchair ramps (坡道), but with a creative twist. Instead f traditinal materials, she began cnstructing ramps using clrful ty bricks. Hwever, as she started her prject, she quickly realized that acquiring enugh bricks was a challenge in itself. Many peple hld nt their brick cllectins with fndness. Furthermre, she fund that mst available sets were nt suited fr her ram p designs.
In a mment f helplessness, she reached ut n scial media fr assistance. T her delight, the respnse was verwhelming. “My first dnr asked hw many pieces f bricks I wuld need t finish my very first ramp,” she shared. After estimating that she might need arund 1,000 pieces, she was thrilled when he arrived with tw large bxes f ty bricks.
Since embarking n this heartwarming effrt in 2019, Rita has built numerus ramps, earning her the lvely title f “Brick Oma”, r “Brick Grandma”. Her clrful creatins have transfrmed shps acrss Hanau, including sweet shps and grcery stres, making them mre accessible, ne brick at a time.
The clrful ramps als serve as a helpful visual cue fr thse with lw visin, signaling an incline (倾斜) ahead. Building a ram p typically takes Rita just three t fur hurs, and as dnatins cntinue t pur in, she is grateful fr the supprt. Her landlrd even prvided her with extra space t stre the grwing brick cllectin.
Rita Ebel’s jurney is a beautiful reminder f the pwer f cmmunity, creativity, and the firm spirit t uplift thers. Thrugh her clrful brick ramps, she is nt nly paving the way fr greater accessibility but als spreading happiness and hpe thrughut her belved Hanau.

The way peple express emtins while helping thers can influence whether their assistance is welcmed, hated, r rewarded, accrding t new research frm Washingtn State University’s Carsn Cllege f Business.
“Recipients (受助者) are nt passive; they pick up n emtinal signals and use them t infer why smene is helping,” said Stephen Lee, assistant prfessr f management at Washingtn State University. “If they sense the helper is mtivated by self-interest r respnsibility, it changes the way they perceive the help and whether they are willing t return the favr.”
The findings were based n three studies and a pilt study invlving wrking adults and student participants. Participants were asked t either recall real-wrld helping experiences, take part in an interactive task in a behaviral lab, r respnd t a situatin interacting with a cwrker. Acrss all the studies, scially engaging emtins cnsistently led t perceptins f prscial (亲社会的) mtives, strnger relatinships, and greater willingness t reward.
Fr leaders and managers, the study highlights the rle f emtinal expressins in shaping a culture f cperatin. Rather than encuraging helping behavir fr its wn sake, Lee recmmends fstering a wrkplace envirnment where emplyees feel genuine gratitude fr their clleagues and develp a natural sense f sympathy fr thers’ challenges.
“Helping that stems frm gratitude r cncern fr thers is mre likely t create psitive, lasting relatinships,” Lee said. “If leaders can mdel thse kinds f emtins in hw they help their teams, it sets the tne fr a mre supprtive and engaged wrkplace.”
At the individual level, emplyees can als benefit frm reflecting n their wn experiences f receiving help r by practicing perspective-taking — appraches that naturally fster mre authentic emtins and scial cnnectins.
“When we express genuine gratitude r sympathy, we’re nt just benefiting urselves,” Lee said. “We’re strengthening ur wrkplace relatinships and building a mre resilient culture f cperatin.”
8. What can we knw abut recipients f help?
A. They dn’t care hw help is ffered.B. They feel it necessary t return the favr.
C. They dislike receiving help frm strangers.D. They can detect mtives behind the help.
9. What des the study suggest abut expressing psitive emtins while helping?
A. It makes the task easier fr the helper.
B. It imprves the recipient’s self-respect.
C. It encurages the recipient t help thers.
D. It reduces the need fr direct cmmunicatin.
10. Why des the authr mentin perspective-taking?
A. T explain why helping is difficult.
B. T shw hw t imprve hnest emtins.
C. T prve that emplyees need mre training.
D. T discuss hw cwrkers can avid cnflicts.
11. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Emtinal Expressins Shape Hw Help Is Received
B. Strengthening Relatinship Thrugh Help with Heart
C. Expressing Emtins at Wrk Determines Prductivity
D. Building Bridges Thrugh Genuine Emtinal Expressin

Frm mushrms that cast a sft green glw t planktn (浮游生物) that gives ff sparkling blue, glwing plants are nthing new fr nature. Nw, scientists are bringing that light t huseplants. Reprting in the Cell Press jurnal Matter n August 27, researchers crafted glw-in-the-dark succulents (肉质植物) that recharge in sunlight, injected with light-emitting cmpunds, the plants can shine in varius clrs and match a small night light at their brightest. The simple, lw-cst methd may help lay the fundatin fr sustainable, plant-based lighting systems.
“Picture the wrld f science fictin mvie Avatar, where glwing plants light up an entire ecsystem,” says first authr Shuting Liu f Suth China Agricultural University. “We wanted t make that visin pssible using materials we already wrk with in the lab. Imagine glwing trees replacing streetlights.”
Glwing greenery isn’t a new idea. Past studies have designed similar plants using genetic engineering. But the glw is ften weak and is typically nly available in green. The methds were als cmplex and cstly.
Instead f changing cells t glw thrugh genetic mdificatin, researchers frm Suth China Agricultural University used afterglw phsphr (磷光粉) particles — materials similar t thse fund in glw-in-the-dark tys. These cmpunds absrb light and release it slwly ver time. Fr the particles t travel thrugh leaf tissues, the researchers had t get the size just right: arund 7 micrmeters, rughly the width f a red bld cell.
“Smaller particles mved easily within the plant but they had lw brightness,” says leading researcher Shuting Liu. “Larger particles glwed brighter but culdn’t travel far inside the plant.”
The glwing succulents’ light fades ver time, and the team is still studying the lng-term safety f the materials fr the plants. Still, the cncept culd ffer a sustainable alternative fr lw-intensity lighting in pathways, gardens, r indr decratin. The team is als explring hw the methd can light up plants beynd succulents.
12. What can be inferred abut glwing plants in nature?
A. They are rarely fund in the wild.
B. They are cmpletely artificial creatins.
C. They have been studied fr a lng time.
D. They seldm give ut ther light but blue.
13. Hw did Shuting Liu intrduce her study n glwing plants?
A. By giving examples.
B. By defining a cncept.
C. By prviding statistics.
D. By imagining a scene.
14. What is the main advantage f the new methd cmpared t previus appraches?
A. It is simpler and less expensive.
B. It prduces mre clrful light.
C. It is mre envirnmentally friendly.
D. It suits a wider range f plant species.
15. What shuld be paid special attentin t when chsing phsphr particles?
A. Weight.B. Measure.
C. Quantity.D. Clr.
