Classic Cantnese Dishes and Their Hidden Stries
Cantnese cuisine, ne f China’s eight majr culinary styles, is admired wrldwide fr its fresh ingredients, delicate flavrs, and strict respect fr the riginal taste f fd. What many diners fail t realize is that beneath the simple appearance f many classic Cantnese dishes lie prfund histrical backgrunds, emtinal meanings, and even life philsphies. They are nt merely fd; they are carriers f culture.
White Cut Chicken
The mst icnic dish f Cantnese banquets, white cut chicken, seems extremely simple: biled in water, served with plain sauce. Yet its standard is extremely high. The chicken must be tender, juicy, and glden-skinned. Histrically, this dish represented sincerity. In ancient Guangdng, families served white cut chicken during festivals and imprtant events t shw hnr t guests. Its plainness was seen as a virtue — true gdness needs n strng decratin.
Sha Xing Sha Ru
This slw-cked prk dish has been passed dwn fr hundreds f years. It was first ppular amng schlars and pets, wh valued its sft, mild taste.

It teaches a quiet truth: valuable things ften take time and patience, which matches the character f many Cantnese peple.
Steamed Grass Carp with Spring Onins

Chefs emphasize that the fish shuld be s fresh that it tastes almst like it is still alive. The dish reminds peple t value simplicity and nature, ideas deeply rted in Cantnese culture.
Wan Du Sha

One f the mst incredible changes I’ve made in my life, which has undubtedly made me a happier persn and a better friend, is learning t let g f judging peple.
Once, I visited an ld friend wh was actively neglecting his wn health — he was verweight and had high bld pressure, and yet he ate junk fd and never exercised. I knew he culd imprve his health by changing his daily decisins. S I judged him, gt angry with him, indirectly insulted him with my pininated (武断的) cmmentary, and then we parted n bad terms, which made me regret fr a lng time.
I was unaware f what my friend was ging thrugh. The truth is, he had been deeply depressed abut his pr health, feeling ugly, scared, and he was determined t imprve himself. He was truly wnderful but I wasn’t appreciating him. Instead, I was nly fcusing n hw much “better” I was! That was really my fault.
In shrt, I actively remind myself NOT t judge. Be kind, humble, pen and teachable. There is a stry behind every persn. Ask abut their stries, and then listen. There’s a reasn why they are the way they are. Think abut that, and respect them fr wh they are. Magnify their strengths, nt their weaknesses. The mre yu see the gd in ther peple, the mre gd yu will uncver in yurself. This is hw t make a difference. We all take different rads seeking fulfillment and jy. That smene isn’t n yur rad desn’t mean they’re lst. It’s OK t be upset, but it’s never OK t be cruel. In disagreement with thers, deal nly with the present situatin; dn’t bring up the past r any ther frm f drama.
The mst memrable peple in yur life will be the nes wh lved yu when yu were nt very lvable. Remember this, and return the favr when yu’re able. N matter what happens, be gd t the peple arund yu. Being gd is a peaceful way t live, and a beautiful legacy t leave behind.
4. Why did the authr get mad with his friend?
A. He lked dwn upn his friend.B. He wasn’t used t his friend’s rutine.
C. His friend cared little abut his health.D. His friend never paid a visit t the dctr.
5. What des the underlined phrase “parted n bad terms” in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. left each ther unhappily.B. Frgave each ther.
C. Discussed this in anther place.D. Cntinued t d ther things.
6. Hw shuld we get alng with thers accrding t the authr?
A. Share ur stries with them.B. Fcus n the gd in them.
C. Give them sme advice.D. Help them thrugh criticizing.

Artificial intelligence is fundamentally changing the way mdern industries perate, frm finance t cybersecurity (网络安全). This transfrmatin is driven by its great ptential t increase efficiency and encurage innvatin. Hwever, as a pwerful technlgy, it als brings imprtant risks that must be carefully managed while peple seek its benefits.
One f the mst cnvincing advantages f AI is imprving peratinal efficiency. By autmating (自动化) repetitive and time-cnsuming (消耗) tasks, AI enhances human prductivity, allwing emplyees t fcus n higher-level strategic wrk. It simplifies wrkflws, frm creating dcuments t analyzing cmplex data. This ability t quickly prcess huge amunts f infrmatin allws fr faster, data-based decisins while greatly lwering the chance f human errr, delivering significant value and freeing up resurces.
In the field f cybersecurity, AI prvides a mre active defense system. It can detect unusual patterns in netwrk traffic mre accurately than traditinal methds, enabling faster and mre precise respnses t threats. Furthermre, by examining past data, AI can predict pssible attack patterns, helping rganizatins take preventive steps befre threats fully develp. This practical apprach is key t identifying and stpping cyberattacks befre they cause majr damage.
On the ther hand, using AI als invlves cnsiderable risks, especially regarding data privacy. As AI systems handle enrmus amunts f data, they ften wrk with sensitive infrmatin, raising imprtant rule-fllwing issues. Withut prper management, AI culd expse persnal data, leading t serius leakage. The lack f cmplete AI rules in many areas makes this challenge even harder. Mrever, AI itself creates new weaknesses that can be taken advantage f. The disadvantages in cybersecurity ften cncern its harmful use by cybercriminals. Additinally, when AI systems deal with regulated data, they can face cmplicated rule-fllwing issues, causing legal and security risks.
In cnclusin, AI presents a mix f imprtant rewards and serius risks. While the pssible dangers require serius attentin, rganizatins can strategically use AI’s pwer t increase prductivity, imprve security, and supprt grwth thrugh strng plicies and careful management, thus successfully managing its cmplexities.
8. Hw des AI imprve peratinal efficiency accrding t the text?
A. By bsting innvatin and managing risks.
B. By handling finance and cybersecurity wrk.
C. By prviding direct help t d strategic wrk.
D. By autmating tasks and cutting human errrs.
9. What is the main functin f AI in cybersecurity?
A. It prcesses cmplicated data faster.
B. It detects and attacks unusual patterns.
C. It defends against threat in an active way.
D. It helps make strng plicies and regulatins.
10. Which statement wuld the authr mst likely agree with?
A. AI needs t be strictly limited in its use.
B. AI will sn replace mst f human jbs.
C. AI values benefits ver manageable risks.
D. AI gives rise t actual risks t data privacy.

Almst ne in five adults in the US lives with a mental illness. A number f scientific studies have shwn that nature experiences may benefit peple’s psychlgical well-being and cgnitive (认知的) functin. Experts are starting t recgnize interacting with nature as ne way t imprve mental health. But it has been difficult t find ways t quantify these benefits in a useful manner fr cities r rganizatins that want t integrate nature t imprve mental health.
“Thinking abut the direct mental health benefits that nature cntact prvides is imprtant t take int accunt when planning hw t cnserve nature and integrate it int ur cities,” says Greg Bratman, an assistant prfessr at the University f Washingtn, ffers a cnceptual mdel fr this in his study.
The study utlines hw city planners, landscape architects, develpers, and thers culd eventually anticipate the mental health impacts f decisins related t the envirnment. Many gvernments already cnsider this with regard t ther aspects f human health. Fr example, trees planted in cities imprve air quality r reduce urban heat island effects, and parks built in specific neighbrhds encurage physical activity. But these actins dn’t usually directly factr in the mental health benefits that trees r a restred park might prvide.
Then researchers built a mdel t help make meaningful, infrmed decisins abut envirnmental prjects and hw they may impact mental health. It includes fur steps fr planners t cnsider: elements f nature included in a prject, say at a schl r acrss the whle city; amunt f cntact peple will have with nature; hw peple interact with nature; and hw peple may benefit frm thse interactins, based n the latest scientific evidence.
“If the evidence shws that nature cntact helps t buffer (缓冲) against negative impacts frm ther envirnmental predictrs f health, then access t these landscapes can be cnsidered a matter f envirnmental justice. We hpe this framewrk will cntribute t this discussin,” Bratman says. “Eventually, it culd be develped and ptentially used t help address health disparities in underserved cmmunities.”
12. What challenges planners in using nature t imprve mental health?
A. The high cst f green space prjects.B. The difficulty in measuring the benefits.
C. The lack f scientific studies n nature.D. The lw awareness f mental illnesses.
13. What is the purpse f Bratman’s cnceptual mdel?
A. T help decide n envirnmental issues.B. T shw benefits f nature fr mental health.
C. T seek medical treatment fr mental illnesses.D. T replace traditinal urban planning methds.
14. What shuld the gvernment cnsider in envirnmental prjects accrding t the mdel?
A. Increasing the number f urban cmmunities.
B. Simplifying natural elements in the cmmunity.
C. Giving peple advice n hw t interact with nature.
D. Calculating the frequency f peple’s nature cntact.
15. What is the authr’s attitude twards Bratman’s cnceptual mdel?
A. DubtfulB. ObjectiveC. DisapprvingD. Uninterested
