Grwing up, I idealised independence. I always wanted my wn effrts t be enugh. When I decided t pursue a pstgraduate degree, I wanted t develp a nvel research prgramme and quickly establish myself as an independent scientist. But I was unrealistically ptimistic abut what I culd achieve.
As I began designing experiments, my cmmittee members warned me abut the challenges I wuld face. But my need fr independence drve me t push frward with my research plan. As a result, the first fur years f my pstgraduate career were defined by a series f failures.
During my secnd year, I failed my cmprehensive exam because my prpsal was unclear. During my third year, I discvered that after treating thusands f seeds, I btained just ne plant I culd use fr experiments. By my furth year, my desperatin t succeed vershadwed my desire fr independence.
My adviser and I devised (想出) a smewhat unusual slutin: I wuld spend three mnths in a cllabrating (合作的) lab t btain specialised training. I wrked extensively with ther students, cnstantly asked questins, and helped with nging prjects t learn everything I culd. Finally, I cnducted an elegant experiment that wuld nt have been pssible withut the help f the members in the lab.
My adviser saw this experience as a grundbreaking success, emphasising the cllabrating skills I acquired. A few mnths later, when I repeated the experiment in my hme lab, I prduced mre publishable data. By learning when t ask fr help, I eventually fund myself n the way t becming an independent scientist.

Habit frmatin is the prcess by which behaviurs becme autmatic. Peple develp cuntless habits as they explre the wrld, whether they are aware f them r nt. Understanding hw habits take shape may be helpful in changing bad habits.
Habits are built thrugh learning and repetitin.

Over time, thughts f the behaviur and ultimately the behaviur itself are likely t be triggered(触发) by these cues.
A “habit lp(环)” is a way f describing several related elements that prduce habits. These elements are called the cue, the rutine, and the reward. Fr example, stress culd serve as a cue that ne respnds t by eating, which prduces the reward﹣the reductin f stress. While a rutine invlves repeated behaviur, it’s nt necessarily perfrmed in respnse t a deep﹣rted urge, as a habit is.
Old habits can be difficult t shake, and healthy habits are ften harder t develp. But thrugh repetitin, it’s pssible t frm new habits. The amunt f time needed t build a habit will depend n multiple factrs, including the individual and the intended behaviur. While yu are able t pick up a new habit in a few weeks, it takes many mnths t build a healthy habit. Take sme time t think abut what leads t bad habits and re﹣evaluate what yu get ut f them (r dn’t). Cnsider and keep in mind why yu want t make a change, including hw the change reflects yur values.

Recent research suggests that if an argument gets reslved, the emtinal respnse tied t it is significantly reduced r almst cmpletely erased. Thus, it may be wrth bringing up issues with yur friends, family members, r classmates rather than hlding them back.
There is a difference between arguing and fighting. Arguing is that yu and yur ppnent present yur cncerns and discuss the feelings and issues related t thse cncerns. Yu can engage in an argument respectfully withut stirring up（激起） anger. Fighting, hwever, usually invlves persnal attacks, raising f vices, and strming ut. Discussing yur issues and reslving them instead f stuffing them dwn can imprve yur emtinal health. In a study, 2.000 peple were asked t recrd their feelings and experiences fr eight days in a rw. When peple had an argument that they cnsidered reslved, they had half the reactivity （情绪反应） f thse wh avided an argument. Reactivity is an increase in negative emtins r a decrease in psitive emtins. In ther wrds, reslving an argument cuts yur negative feelings by half. One day later, peple wh had a reslved argument reprted n increase f negative emtins cmpared with thse wh avided an argument. This means that reslving an argument can feel like yu have reached a state f reslutin——and yu are less likely t be annyed.
Mrever, the lder yu are, the mre likely yu will cme t a reslutin after an argument. This may be because mre life experience usually leads t mre defined pririties. Yu are mre likely t distinguish between what matters and what des nt.
It is easier t avid a discussin, but risking talking abut it may eventually lead t a better utcme.
40. Accrding t this passage, what is arguing？
41. Why is it that “the lder yu are, the mre likely yu will cme t a reslutin after an argument”？
42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
Reslving arguments can imprve yur emtinal health, because it increases yur reactivity and reduces the chance f yu getting angry.

When I think abut running a timed mile in elementary schl PE class, I can still feel the full-bdy sensatin f stress. The mile run was part f the Natinal Physical Fitness Test, a bi annual assessment given t elementary thrugh high schl students, which included five events: the mile run, sit-ups, pull-ups r push-ups, a sit-and-reach and a shuttle run.
Twice a year, the tp 15 percent f participants natinwide were hnred with a Physical Fitness Award. At my schl, the winners’names were painted n ne f the gym’s walls. Fr years I stared admiringly at thse names, wndering if I wuld ever make the cut. But n matter hw hard I tried, I culd never pull my chin abve the bar.
I believe deeply in the value f physical activity fr bth the mind and the bdy. Hwever, it wasn’t until I was in my 30s and had run a half-dzen half-marathns, at a cmfrtable pace, that I even began t believe I was a sprtswman. I’ve heard similar stries frm many peple. My friend Natalia, a grup fitness instructr, said that fr years she saw herself as lacking athleticism thanks t her experience in PE class. It was nly when she tk a fitness class that she began t see herself as physically capable.
Their experiences, and my wn, made me believe even if PE class and fitness assessment fail t make yu develp a psitive relatinship with sprts, there is definitely a psitive pprtunity t make it a surce f jy in yur life.
It’s taken years t meet myself where I am. When I run a mile these days, I feel s gd by the end that I want t run anther. I still can’t d a traditinal pull-up, but a trainer at my gym recently intrduced me t assisted pull-ups with resistance bands; I delight in finally feeling up t the task.

Hw Gratitude Makes Yu Happier
Chsing t be thankful may well be an easy and accessible way t bst yur happiness. We usually think f happiness as a subjective sense f well-being, a feeling f jy and satisfactin. But mre than just an emtin r fleeting (短暂的) feeling, happiness als includes a deep sense f meaning, wrth and purpse in life. Gratitude supprts happiness in ways related t all f these.
Research has shwn gratitude has far-reaching effects n ur physical health. When peple are thankful, they’re mre likely t exercise, eat better, and take care f their health. Much evidence pints t lwer stress, reduced pain and imprved immune systems as a result f being thankful. Even better bld pressure and psitive effects n the heart have been linked t gratitude.
Gratitude has a strng psitive impact n mental health as well. It increases self-esteem, enhances psitive emtins and makes us mre ptimistic since experiencing gratitude activates neurtransmitters like dpamine, which we assciate with pleasure, and sertnin, which regulates ur md. It als prmtes feelings like trust and genersity, which are induced by xytcin, a hrmne released by the brain.
Just like a muscle, thankfulness is smething we need t exercise mre ften. One way is t learn frm the Scandinavians, wh, the UN’s Wrld Happiness Reprt suggests, are the happiest peple in the wrld. It’s wrth pausing t think abut why. Scandinavians themselves are determining their levels f happiness. They are appreciative f a functining sciety where they have ecnmic security and where scial institutins supprt everyne. Yet, there is smething else. They value “mderatin”, a just enugh-ness. They dn’t chase happiness r wrk vertime fr mnths at a time. They remain grateful fr a healthy wrk-life balance. As a result f this satisfactin and cntentment, they feel their lives have value.
S, take sme time t be thankful. It can impact yur happiness and enhance many aspects f yur life.

When Eugenie Gerge first heard that her friend passed the accuntant exam, her heart sank.

Besides, mental health can als affect yur ability t participate in smene else’s jy. Negative emtins like anger r dislike may lead t the ppsite f freudenfreude.
Luckily, the ability f freudenfreude can be exercised. T help peple strengthen jy-sharing muscles, Chambliss and his clleagues develped a prgramme called Freudenfreude Enhancement Training practices. They fund that depressed students wh used the practices fr tw weeks had an easier time expressing freudenfreude, which enhanced their relatinships and imprved their mds.

What We Really Knw Abut ASMR
If yu spend time n YuTube r TikTk, yu may have cme acrss vides f smene whispering int a micrphne, carefully slicing stacks f slime, r slwly ripping strips f paper. These vides are designed t trigger an autnmus sensry meridian (经络) respnse, r ASMR, a pleasant feeling that travels frm the tp f the head dwn the back f the neck t the upper spine.
Watching vides that trigger ASMR is thught t lead t psitive respnses thrughut the bdy including enhanced md, relaxatin, and even pain relief. But can yu really achieve these benefits just by watching a shrt vide?A systematic review published seeks t answer that questin. German researchers cmbined the data frm 54 studies t better help us understand ASMR and its effects.
But first, where did this idea cme frm?There are references t feelings similar t ASMR in classic literature dating back t the early 1900s. The cntemprary definitins f ASMR sprang frm a discussin frum n a health-fcused website in2007. A YuTuber named Jennifer Allen cined the term in 2010.
Based n the previus studies, the researchers cncluded that examples f triggers include whispering, tapping, and natural sunds, and it is imprtant t nte that specific triggers f ASMR and the intensity f the respnse vary widely by individuals. They als explred its benefits. Clear evidence shws that ASMR can reduce stress and anxiety. Data als shws that it can imprve shrt-term memry. In specific cases, participants watching ASMR vides had lwer heart rates and bld pressure, physical signals f relaxatin. In additin, they fund that ASMR triggers brain activity patterns assciated with relaxatin and stress relief.
Despite the encuraging results, the authrs nted that many f the ASMR studies had small sample sizes and a lack f diversity amng participants; mre research is needed t truly understand the impacts f ASMR.
Luckily, it’s true that watching sensry vides f peple brushing their hair, whispering, and making sft repetitive nises can lead t relaxatin and stress relief. The best thing abut ASMR is that there are minimal side effects. S if yu’re feeling anxius r stressed, it might be wrth watching a few minutes f ASMR vides t see if they help!

The legendary hrrr authr H. P. Lvecraft wrte that “the ldest and strngest emtin f mankind is fear, and the ldest and strngest kind f fear is fear f the unknwn.”
Uncertainty causes peple t see threats everywhere they lk, and at the same time it makes them likely t react emtinally. Even minr perids f unpredictability can cause significant negative effects. Research n traffic jam, fr example, has fund that the lack f cntrl drivers feel sends stress and anger levels thrugh the rf. Uncertain bus, train, and plane delays are als majr surces f uncertainty-triggered distress. One study fund that giving peple up-t-the-minute wait times was an effective way t limit anxiety and frustratin. Even if the wait fr a bus turned ut t be lng, remving the element f uncertainty made cmmuters feel better.
Different peple respnd t uncertainty in different ways. Unfrtunately, many are unhelpful cping strategies.
Peple wh struggle with uncertainty ften respnd t it by wrrying. They als tend t think that wrrying will smehw help them prepare fr what’s t cme. This is false. The mre peple engage in wrrying, the less they feel cnfident in their ability t slve a prblem and the wrse their slutins tend t be.
Trying t seek ut new and helpful infrmatin can als backfire. BMC Public Health fund that peple can nly prcess and make sense f a limited infrmatin, and that cnsuming t much new infrmatin can lead t cnfusin and increased uncertainty.

Hgan was ne f the greatest glfers f the 20th century, an accmplishment he achieved thrugh tireless practice. Fr him, every practice sessin had a purpse. He spent years breaking dwn each phase f the glf swing and testing new methds fr each part. The result was near perfectin. Hgan finished his career with nine majr champinships. During his prime, ther glfers attributed his remarkable success t “Hgan’s secret”. Tday, experts have a new term fr his style f imprvement: deliberate practice.
Deliberate practice refers t a special type f practice that is purpseful and systematic. While regular practice might include mindless repetitins, deliberate practice requires fcused attentin and is cnducted with the specific gal f imprving perfrmance. When Hgan carefully recnstructed each step f his glf swing, he was engaging in deliberate practice. He was finely tuning his technique.
The greatest challenge f deliberate practice is t remain fcused. In the beginning, shwing up and putting in yur repeated practice is the mst imprtant thing. But after a while we begin t carelessly verlk small errrs and miss daily pprtunities fr imprvement. This is because the natural tendency f the human brain is t transfrm repeated behavirs int autmatic habits. The mre we repeat a task, the mre mindless it becmes. Mindless activity is the enemy f deliberate practice. The danger f practicing the same thing again and again is that prgress becmes assumed. T ften, we assume we are getting better simply because we are gaining experience. In reality, we are merely reinfrcing ur current habits—nt imprving them.
Deliberate practice always fllws the same pattern: break the verall prcess dwn int parts, identify yur weaknesses, test new strategies fr each sectin, and then integrate yur learning int the verall prcess.
Deliberate practice des nt mean that yu can fashin yurself int anything with enugh wrk and effrt, thugh. While human beings d pssess a remarkable ability t develp their skills, genes put limits n hw far any individual can g. But genetics d nt determine perfrmance.

AI art, aka (又名) cmputatin art r generative art, refers t the creatin f any artwrk thrugh the use f artificial intelligence prgrams. This can include art frms like music, phtgraphy and vide, but in this article we’ll fcus n 2D and 3D illustrative art.
AI art shuld nt be cnfused with digital art, which refers t artwrks created using any type f digital sftware. Typically, with digital art, the creatr has t emply sme level f artistic skill and technique, and understand hw t use tls such as Adbe Illustratr.
With AI art, in cntrast, yu typically nly have t type in a text prmpt (提示词). A finished artwrk is then created by generative AI algrithms withut any further input needed.
AI art is cntrversial (有争议的) within the art and design prfessins fr tw main reasns.

And that’s inevitably (不可避免的) ging t lead t jb lsses and the lss f freelance wrk t prfessinal artists. The secnd reasn is that AI art generatrs are trained n art made by humans. Yet in mst cases, these artists have nt been paid fr this sampling f their wrk. And by cpying their style, which they may have taken decades f hard wrk t develp, AI art generatrs are arguably carrying ut the biggest theft in histry.

The artist cmmunity is nw in a similar psitin, n a massive scale. AI art generatrs are taking ut the equivalent f 5,000 francs f value multiple times a secnd, and yet artists aren’t getting a penny. A number f curt cases are testing ut this argument in curt.

Milrem Rbtics, an Estnian cmpany, has develped an autnmus rbt frester. The new rbt frester can plant a hectare f frest in less than six hurs. The rbtic planters are equipped with Lidar (Light Detectin and Ranging) which uses laser pulses t build up a three-dimensinal image f the rbts’ surrundings and glbal psitining (GPS) t navigate precisely.

The rbt frester is designed fr wrking in cmmercial frests and it culd be used t restre natural frests, t. Defrestatin (滥伐) cntributes 15% f all glbal greenhuse gas emissins. Cnservatinists say, “We lse 10 millin hectares f trees every year t agriculture and lgging and we need t plant a trillin trees t reverse frest cver lss t help slw dwn climate change.” A mature tree can capture an average f 0.62 metric tns f carbn dixide ver its lifetime — equivalent t the carbn emissins frm driving a car 2,400 kilmetres.

The Pwer and Prblems f Ec-Turism
Ec-turism gained its ppularity ver the past tw decades. At its cre, ec-turism prmtes sustainable travel practices that benefit lcal cmmunities and prtect the envirnment. Hwever, like any significant trend, it is vital t analyze its impact and understand bth its merits (好处) and ptential shrtcmings.
Ec-turism emerged as a respnse t the damaging effects f mass turism. Castal twns were being transfrmed int cmmercial centers, but the luxury resrts rarely invested back int the cmmunity. Over time, ecsystems suffered, lcal cultures were vershadwed, and the very essence f these destinatins was at risk. On the ther hand, ec-turism fcuses n smaller grups, envirnmental educatin, and lcal engagement.
One f the primary merits f ec-turism is its emphasis n envirnmental cnservatin. It helps prtect endangered species and refrest areas affected by defrestatin. Take the muntain grillas f Rwanda fr instance, turism incme has played a crucial rle in their cnservatin effrts, bringing them back frm the edge f extinctin.
Furthermre, ec-turism ften ensures that lcal cmmunities benefit ecnmically. Instead f leaving prfits t internatinal crpratins, the incme ften stays within the cmmunity. Lcal artisans, guides, and service prviders receive a mre significant piece f the pie, ensuring that turism acts as a tl fr sci-ecnmic grwth.
Yet, ec-turism is nt withut its prblems. The term “ec-turism” is smetimes misused r verused. Sme businesses might claim themselves as “ec-friendly” purely as a marketing strategy, withut truly making sustainable practices.
In cnclusin, ec-turism represents a significant change twards mre sustainable travel, placing emphasis n the envirnment and lcal cmmunities. Hwever, as with any majr mvement, it’s essential t apprach it with a critical eye. By ding s, we can ensure that ur passin fr travelling desn’t cme at the cst f ur planet r its inhabitants, but rather enriches bth the traveler and the destinatin.

We’ve all seen the little kids—lsing temper in the ty stre, screaming in restaurants and generally making a scene in public. Fr their parents, giving in t a kid’s mnstrus behavir helps t end the mess and gain sme peace and quiet, and this is where verindulgence begins.
Accrding t Kathy Webb, a psychtherapist in Brunswick, verindulgence is the result f parents’ beliefs. A lt f verindulging parents believe their children shuld be happy all the time, which is the reasn why the parents try t avid cnflict at all csts. They als hld that verindulgence equals lve, but experts insist that being verly permissive and indulgent is nt a healthy kind f lve.
Overindulgence can create a myriad f wrng attitudes and behavirs in children. When verindulged, children develp unrealistic expectatins which d nt serve them as they grw. Healthy parenting, Webb said, means giving children uncnditinal lve, quality time, healthy discipline and respect fr what is apprpriate. “Healthy parents prmte gd values and use everyday life experiences t teach their children,” she said.
Many parents dn’t intentinally verindulge, but fail t fllw thrugh n cnsequences. “Cnsequences help children develp their wn self-guidance skills,” Webb said. “Withut cnsequences, children never learn t discipline themselves.”
But parents wh have verindulged shuldn’t just thrw up their hands and walk away frm the situatin, feeling like failures. There are steps that can be taken t turn family life arund. “All is nt lst,” Webb said. “Yu just have t take it step by step.” Identifying prblems and what can be dne t crrect them are the first steps.

A new study fund that light pllutin is making the night sky brighter and the stars dimmer. Man-made lighting is the main cause, making the night sky abut 10 percent brighter each year.
The result was a much faster rate f change than scientists had estimated. The research team gave an example t explain the result. If a child is brn where 250 stars can be seen n a clear night, by the time that child turns 18, nly 100 stars will be seen.

Twns and cities are replacing lder streetlights with mdern LEDS that are mre carefully directed dwnwards, where the light is useful.

Peple frm different generatins ften live and wrk tgether. Smetimes they’re happy being tgether, ther times they’re nt. One f the reasns fr their unhappiness maybe a generatin gap. A generatin gap is the difference between tw r mre generatins—nt the differences between their years but the differences between the generatins’ ideas, attitudes, and interests. Of curse, peple can have differences and still be happy tgether, but accrding t the experts, cmmunicatin between the generatins helps everyne get alng.
Gd cmmunicatin between the generatins starts in the family. These days many families are changing their cmmunicatin style. They are mving frm a “ne-way” style t a “tw-way” style f cmmunicatin. T shw this change, let’s cmpare tw families:
The Smith family uses the “ne-way” style f cmmunicatin. Mr. and Mrs. Smith shw interest in their children, but they dn’t discuss prblems f feelings. The parents make all the rules and decisins. They dn’t ask fr their children’s pinins. They explain their decisins t their children, but they dn’t discuss them. The explanatin is clear and the children understand. The cmmunicatin ges ne way: frm the parents t the children.
The Jnes family uses the “tw-way” style f cmmunicatin. Mr. and Mrs. Jnes shw interest in their children and ask fr their pinins. They discuss prblems and express their feelings. The family makes rules and decisins tgether after a discussin. The cmmunicatin ges tw ways: frm parents t children and frm children t parents.
Better cmmunicatin between generatins at hme means better cmmunicatin between generatins at wrk and in the cmmunity. When peple frm different generatins understand each ther better, they learn frm each ther mre. This helps them frm strnger bnds, wrk tgether mre easily. As a result, peple f all ages can team up effectively and cme up with new ideas in different parts f life.
