Tiana Barrn, funder f Jaxx Fntaine D’eau, a high-quality spring water brand fr dgs, regards her bnd with animals as her surce f healing. Her rescued dg frm Hurricane Katrina inspired the business, which she imagined fr five years befre launching in Orange Cunty. “I’ve given my dg bttled water fr years, even befre it was cmmn fr humans,” she explains. Hwever, her decisin t frmalize (使规范化) this practice int a business riginated frm a deeper purpse: “I wanted t hnr the uncnditinal lve animals give us. They fill emtinal gaps that humans smetimes can’t.”
Scientific studies highlight dgs’ ability t imprve mental health — reducing lneliness, stress, and depressin. Tiana’s experience aligns with these findings. Her dg helped her address persnal struggles, ffering cmpaninship even her children culdn’t match. “Animals have pure suls; they’re irreplaceable,” she says. Fr Tiana, this cnnectin ges beynd practicality — it’s emtinal and spiritual.
Launching Jaxx Fntaine D’eau faced cnsiderable barriers: relcating, hme redecratin, and financial risks. Yet Tiana carried n it, driven by perseverance and sympathy. “I’m a fighter. I’ve had a tugh life, but I always get up and fight again. Everything happens in yur jurney when it’s suppsed t, nt when yu want,” she asserts. Her jurney reflects that she ranks animal welfare ver prfit. “This isn’t just a business — it’s a tribute t the lve dgs deserve,” she adds.
Tiana’s stry is nt just abut business success; it’s abut living in grace and trying hard t create a better wrld. She hpes that her stry will inspire thers t respect ne anther, regardless f their differences. “I’m s sensitive t peple and emtins, and it upsets me t see divisin. I dn’t care hw yu chse t live yur life, but be nice t each ther. We’re nt here t judge and be mean,” she emphasizes.

A cating 100 times thinner in thickness than a human hair culd be “ink-jetted” nt yur backpack, cellphne r car rf t capture the sun’s energy, new research frm Oxfrd University’s physics department shws, in a develpment that culd reduce the wrld’s need fr slar farms that take up massive areas f land.
This micr-thin, light-absrbing material is flexible enugh t apply t the surface f almst any building r bject, with the ptential t generate up t nearly twice the amunt f energy f current slar panels. The technlgy cmes at a critical time fr the slar pwer bm as human-caused climate change is rapidly warming the planet, frcing the wrld t accelerate its transitin t clean energy.
Here is hw it wrks: The slar cating is made f materials called pervskites (钙钛矿), which are mre efficient at absrbing the sun’s energy than the silicn (硅)-based panels widely used tday. That’s because its light-absrbing layers can get a wider range f light frm the sun’s spectrum (光谱) than traditinal panels. And mre light means mre energy.
“This is imprtant because it prmises mre slar pwer withut the need fr silicn-based panels r specially-built slar farms,” Junke Wang, ne f the Oxfrd scientists said. “We can fancy pervskite catings being applied t brader types f surface t generate cheap slar pwer, such as the rf f cars and buildings and even the backs f mbile phnes.” At just ver ne micrmeter thick, the cating is 150 times thinner than a silicn wafer used in tday’s slar panels. And unlike existing silicn panels, the pervskites can be applied t almst any surface, including plastics and paper, using tls like an inkjet printer.
A persistent prblem with pervskites, hwever, is stability, which has prevented its develpers frm cmmercializing the technlgy. Sme catings in lab settings have disslved r brken dwn ver shrt perids f time, s are regarded as less durable than tday’s slar panels.
8. What can we learn frm paragraph 1?
A. The cating lks like human hair.B. The slar farm cvers much space.
C. The car rf is used t get electricity.D. The cellphne can absrb slar energy.
9. Why is clean energy transitin urgent accrding t the text?
A. Climate change is speeding up glbal warming.
B. Slar farms are becming t expensive t build.
C. Pervskite catings are mre efficient than silicn panels.
D. The wrld needs t prduce twice as much energy as befre.
10. What makes pervskite better than silicn?
A. It can be made mre clrful.B. It can be made a lt cheaper.
C. It absrbs mre slar energy.D. It has a wider range f layers.
11. What can be inferred abut pervskite panels?
A. They are already ppular in daily life.B. Their efficiency is lwer than expected.
C. They face barriers t wide applicatin.D. Their prductin cst is extremely high.
D
In a time when human achievements hit recrd levels, yung peple increasingly struggle with grwing deep anxiety. The Wrld Happiness Reprt 2023 shws a wrrying pattern: while technlgy and material cmfrts imprve, teenagers’ self-reprted happiness has drpped fr eight straight years. This reveals sciety’s basic misjudgment f what brings fulfillment.
Ancient Greek thinkers knew smething mdern educatin ften ignres: real satisfactin cmes frm inner harmny, nt utside apprval. Scrates’ well-knwn advice t “knw yurself” feels mre urgent tday. The stry f billinaire Jhn De prves this: after gaining wealth and fame, he admits in his memir Empty Mansins, “I spent years climbing ladders t find they were placed against the wrng walls.”
Mdern science backs this ancient idea. Dr. Eleanr Richards’ lng-term study at Cambridge fllwed 1,200 successful peple fr 25 years. Thse wh fcused n internal drives (curisity, skill-building) had 37% higher life satisfactin than thse seeking external rewards (scial status, mney). The gap lay nt in what they achieved, but hw they viewed their gals.
This imbalance harms bth bdy and mind. Acrss cultures, time-tested traditins teach us abut sustainable living. Chinese literati like Ta Yuanming in the 5th century chse rural simplicity, finding cntentment (满足) thrugh harmny with nature — a philsphy eched in Threau’s Walden Pnd experiment. Such wisdm reminds us that purpse-driven living, rather than endless striving, sustains true well-being.
The answer isn’t t avid ambitin, but t rethink success. When Chinese diver Quan Hngchan balanced Olympic training with schl life, she shwed hw athletic excellence and persnal grwth can cexist. Like gymnast Simne Biles’ brave chice, these athletes remind us that true wrth includes bth prfessinal achievement and well-being.
As graduatin nears, students face key decisins: fllw sciety’s success rules, r build what thinker Alain de Bttn calls “true ambitin”? This chice shapes bth careers and life quality. True success, as Seneca said, is “matching daily actins t cre values.” Ultimately, the deepest achievements start within urselves.
12. What causes the decline in teenagers’ happiness?
A. Absence f successful rle mdels.B. Lack f access t advanced technlgy.
C. Insufficient fcus n achievements.D. Overemphasis n external recgnitin.
13. What leads t higher life satisfactin in Richards’ study?
A. Fcus n persnal grwth.B. Ability t get wealth and status.
C. Insistence n traditinal practices.D. Rejectin f mdern expectatins.
14. What can we learn frm paragraph 4?
A. Material wealth blcks true cntentment.
B. Islatin frm sciety ensures inner peace.
C. Purpse-driven simplicity guarantees happiness.
D. Harmny with nature imprves physical strength.
15. Hw des the authr supprt the argument?
A. By sharing anecdtes and listing statistics.
B. By cmparing views and prviding cntrasts.
C. By criticizing technlgy and prmting values.
D. By presenting examples and drawing a cnclusin.

The challenge, hwever, extends beynd just prtecting a crp. It’s abut innvating t meet the demands f a rapidly changing climate.

In the fifth grade, my deskmate was Mia, a shy but clever girl. Being t shy t raise her hand even when she knew the answer, she didn’t participate in class actively. But I did admire her. I tried t draw her attentin, in a rude and stupid way.
One day, I hid her pencil case smewhere in the classrm. When the bell rang, annuncing the end f the day, she began t gather her things. Sn, she fund her pencil bx was gne.
