Fr mre than ten years, I was a screen and TV writer, navigating the shark - filled waters f Hllywd. Despite the cnstant and unavidable ups and dwns f this life, I realized many f my dreams including wrking with stars like Lucas and writing an Emmy - winning TV shw. Then, my life tk an unexpected turn. In 2011, I agreed t teach a class. I discvered a deep lve fr it—the engagement with students and the stable incme were welcme changes.
As my writing career slwed, my wife encuraged me t pursue mre teaching. I researched and fund a psitin at UC Riverside. I said "Yes" t the interview, gt the jb, and within years became a prfessr. Academia became my fcus, but I remained a writer at heart. I decided t write my first nvel, free frm deadlines, simply fr the creative jy.
In 2015, an email asked if I was interested in a talk in the cmmunity. I said "Yes". The challenge was big: a 15 - minute speech in frnt f 500 peple and three cameras. Hwever, I succeeded, and the talk was well - received. After the speech was upladed t the internet, it led t an email frm Publishizer, suggesting a bk n my talk's tpic. I instead recmmended my nvel. They asked if I wanted t launch a pre - sale campaign t attract readers. I said "Yes".
Publishizer's funder advised me t find an editr. Again, I said "Yes". I hired Lauren Hughes, whse insightful feedback was incredibly encuraging. I accepted her ntes and revised the manuscript. The pre - sale campaign sld ver 300 bks, generating interest frm many readers. S my first nvel was published.
All this happened because I cnsistently said "Yes" t new pprtunities, embracing challenges withut knwing the utcme. This philsphy keeps me engaged against the pull f aging. As a prfessr, I urge students t be psitive. I dn't knw hw my nvel will be received, but when asked if I have a bk ut, I can prudly say "Yes".

Each year, an estimated ne billin birds die frm windw cllisins (碰撞事故) in the USA, making glass a tp threat alngside cats and habitat lss. During migratin seasns, hundreds f millins f birds fly at night. At dawn, they alight t rest and encunter glass, a material evlutin has nt prepared them fr.
Vlunteers with grups like Lights Out DC walk urban rutes at dawn t rescue injured birds and dcument deaths. They find that transparent windws appear as passable space t birds, while reflective surfaces mirrr trees and sky, creating deadly illusins (错觉). Mst cllisins ccur at lwer heights, belw the treeline, and are nt limited t cities, thugh mnitring effrts are cncentrated there.
In Washingtn, DC, data cllected ver years shws that abut half a dzen buildings with specific architectural features, like glass atriums (中庭) that lead birds t walls, accunt fr a large share f deaths.
The prblem gained natinal attentin in Octber 2023 when nearly a thusand birds died in ne night after hitting Chicag's McCrmick Place Cnventin Center. This event encuraged the frmatin f the Bird Cllisin Preventin Alliance, uniting ver a hundred rganizatins t share resurces and scientific slutins, fcusing n practical actin rather than plitical debate.
After the mass casualty event, the Chicag cnventin center applied a special windw film with a patterned dt matrix (矩阵). The data cllected befre and after shwed a dramatic 95% reductin in bird cllisins. While renvating large buildings can be cstly, incrprating bird - friendly designs frm the start f new cnstructin is mre reasnable.
Only a few American cities, including Washingtn, DC, have carried ut bird - friendly building standards. Fr thers, change relies n advcacy. The impact f residential hmes is als significant, and hmewners can help by treating windws near bird feeders r where cllisins have ccurred befre. Fr vlunteers dcumenting the lsses, each death highlights a tragic cnflict between nature's marvels and the human - built envirnment.
28. Which can explain the underlined wrd "alight" in the first paragraph?
A. Cntinue.B. Land.C. Gather.D. Remember.
29. Why d the birds die frm windw cllisins?
A. They fly t fast t stp.
B. They are attracted by city lights.C. They mistake reflectins fr real habitat.D. They cannt fly ver high - rise buildings.
30. What did the Chicag cnventin center's actin shw?
A. It was difficult fr us t prtect birds.
B. New cnstructins must use a dt matrix.
C. There was much plitical debate abut the film.
D. Effective methds helped prevent the cllisins.
31. What can we learn frm the last paragraph?
A. Mst cities already have the practical standards.
B. Hmewners cannt help prevent the cllisins.
C. Wider adptin f bird - friendly standards is needed.
D. The advcacy f prtecting birds is n lnger necessary.

Abut 20 millin peple die each year due t cardivascular (心血管的) disease. Luckily, a team f researchers frm the University f Nttingham in the UK have develped a machine - learning algrithm (算法) that can predict yur likelihd f having a heart attack r strke as well as any dctr.
The American Heart Assciatin (AHA) has develped a series f guidelines fr estimating a patient's cardivascular risk which is based n eight factrs including age, chlesterl level and bld pressure. On average, this system crrectly guesses a persn's risk at a rate f 72.8 percent.
That's pretty accurate, but Stephen Weng and his team set abut t make it better. They built fur cmputer learning algrithms, and then fed them data frm 378,256 patients in the United Kingdm. The systems first used arund 295,267 recrds t generate their internal predictive mdels. Then they used the remaining recrds t test and refine them.
The algrithms results significantly utperfrmed the AHA guidelines, ranging frm 74.5 t 76.4 percent accuracy. The neural (神经的) netwrk algrithm tested highest, beating the existing guidelines by 7.6 percent while raising 1.6 percent fewer false alarms.
Out f the 83,000 patient set f test recrds, this system culd have saved 355 extra lives. In additin, the AI systems identified a number f risk factrs and predictrs nt cvered in the existing guidelines, like severe mental illness and the cnsumptin f ral crticsterids (皮质激素类). "There are a lt f interactins in bilgical systems," Weng tld Science. "That's the reality f the human bdy. What cmputer science allws us t d is explre thse assciatins."
This is where AI can transfrm preventative medicine. By using vast datasets t uncver cmplex, nn - linear risk interactins beynd human analysis, these algrithms can enable earlier, mre precise interventins. This represents a significant step tward a future where data - driven predictins fundamentally reshape practive healthcare, mving beynd standardized checklists t persnalized risk assessment.
32. Hw did the researchers get the findings?
A. By analyzing patient data.B. By testing 20 millin peple.
C. By asking dctrs fr pinins.D. By fllwing the guidelines f AHA.
33. What is an advantage f the netwrk algrithm cmpared with the previus system?
A. Lwer cst.B. Simpler peratin.C. Wider applicability.D. Higher accuracy.
34. What can be implied in Weng's wrds in paragraph 5?
A. Human bdies are t cmplex t study.
B. AI can help explre bdy interactins.
C. Dctrs knw a little abut ur bdies.
D. There are many algrithms abut medicine.
35. What des the last paragraph mainly talk abut?
A. Algrithms are mainly fr treatment.
B. AI will replace human dctrs in future.
C. Standardized checklists are still the best.
D. AI's ptential in preventative medicine.

Take Regular Breaks t Bst Fcus
When was the last time yu stepped away frm yur cmputer? Fr many, it's been t lng. 36 A study frm the University f Illinis ffers a clear slutin: regular breaks. It cnfirms that taking time t step back vastly imprves fcus, whether yu're deep in wrk tasks r immersed in a gaming sessin. The prblem is that mst peple simply cannt remember t take a break, s intentinal planning is key t making this habit stick.
37 Dn't rely n memry—add breaks t yur calendar app and turn n ntificatins t avid missing them. Treat these breaks with the same seriusness as a wrk meeting. If calendars dn't wrk fr yu, set repeating alarms n yur phne. T make it even easier, build breaks int a cnsistent rutine: fr example, a shrt walk every day at 10 am r making a cup f tea each afternn at 2 pm. 38
The Pmdr Technique is anther ppular and effective apprach. Its name cmes frm the tmat - shaped kitchen timer used by creatr Francesc Cirill when he first develped the methd. 39 Yu pick a specific task, set a timer fr 25 minutes, and wrk intensely during that perid. When the timer ges ff, take a 5 - minute break. After cmpleting fur such wrk - and - break cycles, take a lnger break—usually arund 30 minutes—befre starting again.
Fr thse wh find it hard t stp wrking even when they knw they shuld, break - reminder apps available n the market are great chices. 40 What makes them effective is that they pp up ver whatever yu're ding, frcing yu t pause. Each break als cmes with a helpful suggestin, like turning yur head tward natural light r ding simple stretches.
A. Mst f them are free and reliable.
B. The fllwing steps utline hw it wrks.
C. This culd be slwing dwn yur efficiency.
D. That means yu dn't have t stay fcused all the time.
E. The factrs explain why it can imprve yur cncentratin.
F. These small mments help turn breaks int an autmatic habit.
G. Scheduling breaks int yur daily rutine is an effective methd.

My 10-year-ld sn, Alex, and I were flying frm ur hme in Seattle, Washingtn, t visit my parents in Bstn, Massachusetts. It had been eight mnths since we last saw them, and Alex was bth excited and nervus abut the trip. His grandparents had always been his favrite peple in the wrld, and he culdn't wait t see them again.
As usual, the flight frm Seattle t Bstn was packed. When we arrived at the gate, I nticed a grup f cllege students waiting t bard. They were part f a vlunteer team heading t a cmmunity service prject. I jked with Alex that we wuld still be kay if anything went wrng, given hw helpful vlunteers usually are. Little did I knw hw true thse wrds wuld becme.
Because we had checked in late, Alex and I were unable t get seats tgether. We were separated by the aisle(过道), which wasn't ideal, especially since Alex had a fear f flying and had planned t hld my hand the entire way. I tried t reassure him, but he was visibly anxius.
When the tw passengers wh were seated next t me barded, I asked if they wuld be willing t switch seats with Alex and me s we culd sit tgether. They plitely declined, saying they preferred t stay in their assigned seats. Meanwhile, a few rws ahead, a yung cuple with their tw yung kids was in distress. There had been a mix - up with their barding passes, and the family were split up.
