Accmpanied by her father, using a cmbinatin f aid and free climbing and taking advantage f sme special equipment and rpes fr prtectin, 10-year-ld Selah made it t the tp f El Capitan n June 12 after five days f big wall climbing.
Climbing the challenging and adventurus Nse rute f El Capitan was a labur f lve fr Selah in mre than ne way. Her parents, Mike and Jy Schneiter, fell in lve n this 3,000-plus-ft huge rck and she has always wanted t feel the way that her parents felt when they were up there tgether. Selah shwed great interest in rck climbing at an early age. She wre her first rck-climbing equipment shrtly after she learned t walk. She first dreamed f climbing El Capitan when she was 6 r 7.
El Capitan is a famus muntain-sized rck in Ysemite Natinal Park. Getting t its tp is n easy task. It’s taller, as reprted, than the tallest building in the wrld — Dubai’s Burj Khalifa. El Capitan, with its difficult Nse rute, which runs mre than 3,000 feet high up the centre f the rck’s face, is cnsidered ne f the wrld’s hardest big wall climbs and has attracted the best climbers ver time. But never befre had a yungster accmplished it.
Selah’s achievement caught natinal attentin. Outside Magazine called her the yungest dcumented persn t climb the Nse. Ken Yager, president f the Ysemite Climbing Assciatin, said he als culdn’t think f anyne yunger wh had dne it.
Selah didn’t talk much abut her El Capitan accmplishment. “I’m nt necessarily a special kid r anything like that, she said. “There were a few times when I wuld be s wrn that it smewhat discuraged me frm hlding n. But verall, it was just great t keep ging.”
Selah shared this advice fr ther yung climbers dreaming f big walls, “It desn’t necessarily take a super special persn t achieve smething like that. Yu just have t put yur mind t it.”

T cmmunicate withut wrds, humans use a hst f gestures — whether a wave t wish smene gdbye r a thumbs-up t indicate apprval. Nw researchers have fund, in a particularly plite example, the first dcumented evidence f a symblic gesture used by birds.
Sme birds seem t flutter (拍翅膀) their wings t tell their mates they shuld enter the nest first, suggesting that the animals may cmmunicate with a variety f gestures.
Tshitaka Suzuki at the University f Tky and his clleagues set up hundreds f nest bxes in a frest ppulated with Japanese tits (山雀) near the twn f Karuizawa. Each bx had a 7.5-centimeter-wide hle, just big enugh fr ne bird t squeeze thrugh at a time. During breeding seasn, the team bserved 321 nest visits acrss eight breeding pairs, with the tits ften bringing fd fr their baby birds. If a bird cuple arrived at the nest tgether, each tit wuld land n a nearby branch befre entering. Abut 40 percent f the time, the female fluttered her wings fr a few secnds, with her chest facing the male. This was quickly fllwed by the male entering the nest first, then the female. When neither bird fluttered its wings, which made up 44 percent f nest visitatins, the females usually entered first. Only ne male was seen repeatedly fluttering its wings, which was fllwed by the female entering first. Wing fluttering wasn’t bserved at all when each bird arrived separately.
The team believes that this discvery cnflicts with earlier beliefs that nly a few species use gestures t cmmunicate. “They’ve dne a really gd jb here f shwing there is an assciatin between this mvement, this gesture, and then... the ther bird ding smething,” says Mike Webster, an rnithlgist at Crnell University, wh was nt invlved in the research.
“It’s really strng supprt t the ntin that it’s a symblic gesture. The bird that’s the receiver knws what it means, and it des what it’s suppsed t d.”
“We can cnclude that this wing fluttering cnveys ‘after yu’,” says Suzuki. “This study is the first t shw us clearly by evidence that birds can use wing mvements t cnvey a particular meaning.”
8. What is the aim f Tshitaka Suzuki’s experiment?
A. T find hw the birds’ wings wrk in the wind.
B. T bserve whether birds treat their mates plitely.
C. T prve whether birds can cmmunicate with each ther.
D. T research whether birds can use symblic gestures.
9. Accrding t paragraph 2, why d tits flutter their wings?
A. T shw directin t the ther bird.
B. T signal their mates t enter the nest.
C. T dry ff their wings after flying in the rain.
D. T scare away ptential predatrs near the nest.
10. Hw d the researchers cnduct the study n Japanese tits?
A. By listing sme examples. B. By bserving and cmparing.
C. By reviewing previus data.D. By analyzing cause and effect.
11. What’s the attitude f Mike Webster tward the study?
A. Dubtful.B. Oppsed.C. Favrable.D. Disappinted.

Is scial media really making yung peple antiscial (孤僻的)? A surprising new study finds that children and yung adults wh use these platfrms the mst are actually mre active in the real wrld than thers! The new findings cme frm a lng-term prject called the Trndheim Early Secure Study. Researchers cllected infrmatin frm abut 800 children and yung adults when they were 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18 years ld. This included interviews abut each child’s use f scial media frm year t year. The gal was t determine if using scial media affects a yung persn’s verall scial skills.
T the team’s surprise, participants frequently using these platfrms did nt see their scial skills reduced. “On the cntrary, we find that peple wh use scial media a lt spend mre time with friends ffline than thse wh tend t limit their screen time,” says Prfessr Silje Steinsbekk frm the Nrwegian University f Science and Technlgy’s Department f Psychlgy.
Hwever, scial media can present challenges fr children and teens. Althugh it ffers a cnvenient and cmfrtable way fr thse with scial anxiety t cmmunicate, it can als lead t addictin and misuse. Studies have suggested that yung peple with anxiety are mre easily affected by the negative effects f scial media, which can wrsen their symptms and harm their mental health. Therefre, it is crucial fr parents t mnitr their children’s nline activity and usage
Despite the risks t sme, the team says their findings debunk the belief that scial media causes yung peple t becme scially islated. In fact, their frequent use f scial platfrms may actually give them mre pprtunities t cnnect with ld and new friends and set up chances t g ut and scialize utdrs.
12. What des the study fcus n?
A. The influence f scial media n yung peple.
B. The imprtance f yung peple’s scial skills.
C. Reasns fr peple becming islated frm the cmmunity.
D. Ways t prevent children frm becming addicted t scial media.
13. Wh may prbably be mre active in the real wrld accrding t the study?
A. The ne seldm surfing the Internet.
B. The ne experıencıng scial anxiety.
C. The ne never making friends nline.
D. The ne using scial media frequently.
14. What can be inferred frm paragraph 3?
A. Negative emtins cause teens t misuse scial media.
B. Kids are mre easıly influenced by scial media than adults.
C. Online cmmunicatin can help imprve peple’s mental health
D. Scial media is a duble-edged swrd fr yung peple with anxiety.

My brther Jack was s smart that he earned a full schlarship t Harvard. I ften wished he wasn’t s perfect because it made me feel like I had t wrk twice as hard just t prve myself t thers. On ne hand, his success was a challenge that I enjyed, but n the ther hand, it was an immense pressure that I struggled t cpe with.
T balance his recrd in high schl, I felt like I was cnstantly running n a treadmill (跑步机), dedicating every mment t a nn-stp race. There was n rm fr relaxatin as I pursued that perfect recrd. My life seemed t be cmpressed int a series f endless tasks and deadlines.
“I needed an A,” I repeated t myself befre the bilgy test, s that I wuld maintain my perfect recrd and secure a place n the hnr rll. I studied till the last minute f lunch and rushed t class. I felt a sense f cnfidence as I glanced ver the first page f the test, quickly filling in the answers with a smile. Hwever, as I turned t the last page, my mind went blank. Time ticked by, and sn, the classrm began t empty as students finished their tests and left, except me. “Lara, class ended. I need yu t hand in yur test,” Mrs. Phlem said, stretching ut her hand. Reluctantly, I handed her the test paper.
The next day, I received my test back. I stared dumbfunded at the red mark: 76. Nt even a B. minus, my mind screamed. Just average. It’s ver. N perfect recrd. I felt an unprecedented (前所未有的) sense f frustratin and disappintment. After schl, I dragged my heavy feet back hme. When I pushed pen the dr, Jack was sitting n the cuch, reading. Seeing his leisurely state, I cried, hard t cntain the jealusy and sadness in my heart. Jack immediately nticed the depressin n my face. He asked with cncern, “What’s wrng, Lara?” Blinded by frustratin mixed with a tuch f jealusy, I shuted at him “Hw I wish yu were nt s perfect!”
