I used t believe that creativity depended n speed. Ideas had t be captured befre they faded, and designs had t be cmpleted befre dubt appeared. Nthing challenged this belief mre than watching my grandmther weave (编织) by the windw. Her hands mved with a calm patience I fund unbearable, and althugh wden frames filled ur hme with quiet clr, I rarely stayed lng enugh t understand them.
Years later, just befre I left fr design schl, she handed me a small wven bracelet (手镯). I accepted it plitely while imagining the fast-paced wrld ahead: new techniques, cmpetitins, and the excitement f becming a designer. The bracelet disappeared int my luggage and, sn after, int my memry.
City life rewarded me with everything that I thught mattered. Prfessrs praised my technique, classmates admired hw quickly I wrked, and exhibitins displayed my early prjects. Yet the same remark returned again and again: my designs were skillful but seemed t lack a heartbeat. I tried t ignre it. But late at night, when the studi grew silent, a strange emptiness settled ver me. The mre plished my wrk became, the less related I felt t it.
One winter afternn, while searching thrugh a drawer, I fund the frgtten bracelet. As I studied it clsely, I nticed intentin in every irregular line and a rhythm shaped by pauses (暂停) and chices. Fr the first time, I realized that craft was nt slw but thughtful. I placed the bracelet n my wrist and returned t the studi with a new sense f directin.
In the mnths that fllwed, traditinal weaving quietly entered my mdern designs. Sft threads crssed clean structures, and handwven patterns mixed with digital frms. My prfessrs immediately sensed the change and praised the wrk as alive and grunded.
At my graduatin exhibitin, visitrs paused in frnt f my pieces, tracing the wven details hidden within the frms. When asked abut my inspiratin, I simply raised my wrist. In that mment, I understd that creativity did nt grw frm speed but frm attentin and patience.

In recent years, a trend knwn as the “dpamine detx” (多巴胺戒断) has becme ppular, especially amng yung peple wh feel stressed ut by cnstant digital stimulatin. During a detx, participants avid activities that bring quick pleasure — such as scrlling thrugh scial media, eating junk fd, playing vide games r watching endless nline cntent. Supprters believe that mdern life verstimulates the brain, making it harder fr peple t enjy simple mments. A perid f self-cntrl, they claim, can help peple reset and find jy in rdinary experiences again.
What truly is behind this trend, hwever, is nt scientific prf but peple’s dissatisfactin with their wn habits. Many feel stuck in cycles shaped by ntificatins (通知) and the feed cntrlled by big data. But neurscientists pint ut that the scientific explanatin behind dpamine detx is misleading. Dpamine is nt simply a pleasure chemical, nr is it smething that runs ut. It plays essential rles in mvement, learning, and decisin-making. Its lss, as seen in illnesses such as Parkinsn’s disease, leads t serius prblems. Within the brain’s reward system, dpamine signals when an utcme is better r wrse than expected, gradually helping t turn repeated behavirs int autmatic habits.
Habits can be beneficial because they save mental effrt. Yet they can als lck peple when the behavir cntinues even withut real enjyment. Digital platfrms take advantage f this tendency by prviding quick, unpredictable rewards that keep users ensnared. In this sense, taking an intentinal break can indeed weaken ld patterns — nt by “repairing” dpamine, but thrugh the brain’s natural ability t change.
Studies shw that shrt breaks frm scial media may have limited impact, pssibly because peple feel left ut. Lnger breaks, especially when taken as a grup, seem mre effective. In ne British study, students stayed ff scial media fr three weeks and later reprted better sleep and imprved md.
A dpamine detx, then, is less scientifically grunded treatment and mre a practical way t reset habits. Its real value lies in helping peple regain fcus, reduce unhealthy rutines, and make rm fr activities that truly enrich their lives.
8. What leads t the rise f the dpamine detx?
A. Public’s eagerness t fllw a trend.
B. The recmmendatin frm the experts.
C. The misinterpretatin f dpamine’s functin.
D. Peple’s disappintment with their behaviral patterns.
9. What d we knw abut dpamine?
A. It is vital t human well-being.
B. It is easily exhausted if verused.
C. It serves merely as a pleasure chemical.
D. It prevents the frmatin f autmatic habits.
10. What des the underlined wrd “ensnared” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Alarmed.B. Trapped.
C. Examined.D. Infrmed.
11. What is the authr’s attitude twards the dpamine detx?
A. Objective.B. Unclear.
C. Critical.D. Uncaring.

In the Blivian Amazn, the wide grasslands and calm lakes arund Lake Rgaguad and Lake Ginebra appear untuched. Yet research nw shws that these landscapes were shaped fr centuries by peple wh learned t live with a challenging envirnment. Their achievements, hidden beneath the sil, are helping scientists understand hw humans and nature nce supprted each ther and hw they still can tday.
Recent investigatins cmbined n-the-grund surveys with LiDAR mapping t uncver ancient settlements dating frm 600 t 1400 CE. At Paqui, evidence shws a gradual shift frm simple living t rganized farming. Peple built canals t guide seasnal flds, created raised fields t grw crps, and left behind fd remains that reveal a steady imprvement in farming and daily life. At Jasschaja, later cmmunities expanded this system, managing nearby frests and increasing crp diversity. Tgether, these sites shw a lng traditin f adapting t climate and water cycles rather than resisting them.
Acrss the regin, unusual patterns — circles, straight lines, and lng platfrms — are clearly visible frm abve. These shapes are nt natural. They are large-scale earthwrks designed t cntrl water, imprve sil, and create stable places t live in a landscape that can shift dramatically between rainy and dry seasns. Their variety suggests generatins f experimentatin, reflecting bth perseverance (毅力) and creativity.
Investigatins als shw that peple cmbined fishing, hunting, and farming t frm a balanced diet. Remains f fish and small mammals reveal hw clsely their survival depended n understanding rich wetland resurces.
Tday, Cayubaba and Mvima cmmunities still live in these areas. Their knwledge f seasns, plants, and wildlife ffers researchers valuable guidance. Thrugh cperatin, lcal residents and scientists are prtecting cultural sites and supprting cnservatin prgrams in the surrunding wetlands.
As the Amazn faces rising defrestatin (毁林) and climate pressure, the Blivian Amazn prvides a reminder; lng-term survival cmes frm wrking with nature’s rhythms. The ancient systems fund here suggest that sustainable living is nt a mdern inventin but a lessn carried frward frm thse wh shaped the land with care.
12. Why are Paqui and Jasschaja mentined in paragraph 2?
A. T illustrate the challenges fr early settlers.
B. T cmpare the lifestyles f the tw cmmunities.
C. T prvide prf f adaptive ancient practices.
D. T list the advantage f ancient farming methds.
13. What d recent investigatins reveal?
A. Farming mattered mst t ancient life.
B. Peple survived n nature skillfully.
C. Seasnal variatin shaped the landscape.
D. Wetland resurces were richer than expected.
14. What rle des the Blivian Amazn play?
A. A testing grund fr new research.
B. A birthplace f ancient civilizatin.
C. A living example f sustainable living.
D. A pineer in mdern cnservatin effrts.
15. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Lessns frm the Past: Hw t Live with Nature
B. Ancient Wisdm Prtects the Amazn’s Bidiversity
C. Technlgy Uncvers Secrets f the Blivian Wetlands
D. Frgtten Cities: A Witness t Blivia’s Lst Civilizatins

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Life ften presents challenges that test ur curage, determinatin and patience. One experience that taught me the true meaning f perseverance ccurred during my final year in secndary schl. At that time, ur schl rganized a debate cmpetitin, and after a strict selectin prcess, I was chsen t represent my class. Althugh I had always enjyed public speaking in smaller settings, the thught f facing a large audience filled with teachers and students as well as judges made me extremely nervus. The fear f frgetting my lines r failing t cunter (反驳) my ppnents’ arguments grew great in my mind.
The challenge became even mre discuraging when I received the fficial debate tpic. A wave f panic washed ver me. My knwledge abut the subject was very limited. Meanwhile, I learned that we wuld cmpete against students frm Class 2. They were nt nly experienced debaters but als well-prepared and cnfident, especially Lily, a debater wh had wn many cmpetitins. Self-dubt cluded my thughts, and fr a mment, I seriusly cnsidered giving up t avid ptential shame. Hwever, my English teacher, Mrs. Wilsn, nticed my anxiety. She tk me aside and said, “True grwth happens utside yur cmfrt zne. Preparatin and cnfidence are the keys t turning fear int success.” Her wrds started an emtinal respnse within me.
Fllwing her advice, I immediately set ut t make full preparatins. I spent cuntless hurs after schl researching nline, seeking infrmatin frm the schl library, and tirelessly reading bks and articles n educatinal technlgy. I carefully wrte dwn key pints, structured my arguments, and predicted the ptential cunter. Each day, I wuld practice fr hurs in frnt f the mirrr, carefully bserving my psture and expressins. I even turned t senir students wh had previusly perfrmed very well in debate cmpetitins, practicing my delivery and receiving their cnstructive feedback. Gradually, thrugh these great effrts, my initial fear turned int great determinatin. The strng anxiety was replaced by fcused readiness t face the challenge ahead.
