After a 10-year prject t cunt tuna and ther large fish in the wrld's ceans, scientists have made a very surprising discvery: these fish are almst gne. Because f t much fishing, almst 90 percent f the wrldwide ppulatin f large fish—the nes we usually eat—has disappeared. If we dn’t act, these animals will ttally disappear. That will influence every animal in the cean.
The demand fr fish is grwing. Almst a billin peple arund the wrld get their prtein (蛋白质) mstly frm fish. Dctrs praise seafd fr being lw in fat. But what seems like a healthy chice fr humans is causing a disaster t ur ceans. “Peple are cnsuming (消费) t much,” says Lance Mrgan, a scientist at the Marine Cnservatin Bilgy Institute.
A dish f tuna in restaurants csts mre than just ne animal's life. When fish like tuna disappear frm the ecsystem (生态系统), the cean’s fd chain (链) breaks dwn. Animals such as sharks, which nrmally eat tuna, may die because they find n fd.
The news may be scary, but taking actin frm nw n can prevent harm that hasn’t happened yet. Wrld rganizatins are rdering cuntries t stp fishing t much. The Mnterey Bay Aquarium gives seafd chices t anyne hping t keep healthy withut destrying the envirnment.
“If yu care abut wildlife, first spend time and think abut yur wn values and beliefs,” says Mrgan. “Then decide what yu’re ging t eat.”

Zigng, a city in Sichuan Prvince, is knwn as the hme f Chinese lanterns. These lanterns are even called “the best lanterns in the wrld”.
The histry f Chinese lanterns ges back ver 2,000 years t the Western Han Dynasty. At first, peple made simple lanterns with bamb and paper fr lighting. Later, they hung lanterns during festivals t make a happy atmsphere. By the Tang Dynasty, the Zigng Lantern Festival started. At that time, lanterns became mre beautiful—peple painted flwers, birds and stries n them. As time went n, Zigng lanterns develped by mixing traditinal culture with mdern technlgies.
In 2008, the Zigng Lantern Festival was listed as a natinal intangible cultural heritage (国家级非物质文化遗产). Tday, it has becme a famus symbl f Chinese culture t be knwn arund the wrld.
Wan Sngta, an inheritr (继承人) f Zigng lantern-making, said making a big exhibitin lantern requires 17 steps, and each step needs teamwrk. Fr example, a sundial-shaped (日晷) lantern made by his team tk 80 makers mre than 50 days t finish. Unlike lanterns in ther places, Zigng’s use mdern tech like AI. They cnnect lights, sunds and mvements very well.
What’s mre, the theme f the lantern can be chsen in different ways. Zhang Fanglai frm the Clrful Lantern Museum f China said any design can be made int lanterns, and peple are encuraged t turn their ideas int real wrks. The rich themes f the lanterns shw lcals’ creativity and warmth.
The gvernment encurages peple t learn lantern-making. Withut dubt, the heart f the Zigng Lantern Festival’s success is the lcal traditin f wrking tgether. S far, Zigng lanterns have reached ver 80 cuntries. It’s believed they will g t every crner f the wrld in the future.
1．When did the Zigng Lantern Festival begin?

Frm a baby t an adult, we g thrugh a prcess f learning t behave in ways acceptable t the sciety—ften referred t as “scializatin” r “scial skills”. Withut these skills, frming meaningful relatinships can be challenging. In recent years, Chinese scial media has seen grwing discussins abut scializatin. Many yung peple express wrry ver what they see as their wn “lack f scializatin.” Using this term, they describe feelings f embarrassment and uncertainty in scial situatins.
One majr reasn ften mentined is exam-fcused educatin, which is believed t lead students t value grades ver everything else. As a result, many yung adults feel unprepared fr real-wrld scial situatins. Sme even feel like children “pretending t be adults,” struggling t deal with a cmplex scial envirnment.
Yan Yunxiang, a scial science expert, has intrduced the cncept f “extended yuth”, suggesting that many peple tday chse t delay taking n adult rles due t related burdens and risks. This “refusal t grw up” deepens the feelings f scial inadequacy, which makes yung peple feel less cnfident in fitting int the real wrld.
Researchers als pint t digital cmmunicatin as anther pssible reasn. Yunger generatins spend mre time interacting thrugh screens rather than in persn. While nline interactin has its place, it cannt fully replace face-t-face cntact. A well-knwn study by Albert Mehrabian has fund that 7% f cmmunicatin is based n wrds, 38% thrugh tne and vice, and 55% thrugh bdy language. That means when we cmmunicate thrugh calls r texts, we may nt fully understand thers.
The gd news is that it’s never t late t imprve yur scial skills. Make a cnscius effrt t jin in mre real-wrld cnversatins and practice active listening. Thrugh regular interactin, yu can level up skills such as reading nnverbal (非言语的) clues and guiding a cnversatin smthly. These experiences can help yu better understand the unwritten rules f scializing.

3．What des “inadequacy” prbably mean in paragraph 3?
A．Inability.B．Hesitatin.C．Lneliness.D．Impatience.
4．What des Albert Mehrabian’s study shw?
A．Telephne calls can replace text- based messages.B．Much infrmatin is missing in nline interactin.
C．Tne f vice is mre effective than bdy language.D．The wrds we use are nt s imprtant fr meaning.

B．It is imprtant t reduce unwritten rules in scial life.
C．It is cmmn in sciety and will be changed naturally.
D．It is manageable and can be imprved thrugh practice.
In the dry deserts in nrthwest China, smething amazing is happening. Land that was nce cvered in sand and almst lifeless nw has rws f shiny black slar panels (太阳能板) stretching as far as the eye can see. These are nt just slar panels—they are part f China’s plan t turn deserts int energy factries.
In Inner Mnglia, a prject called the Slar Great Wall cvers a large area f desert. It aims t prduce enugh electricity t light up several majr cities in eastern China by 2030. But these panels turn ut t d mre than prducing pwer. The shadw they prvide has slwed dwn water evapratin, allwing plants like grass t grw in the desert. Over the past five years, the area that was 98% sand nw has up t 80% plant cverage. This nt nly stps sandstrms but als creates habitats fr animals like gats and birds.
Meanwhile, in the high muntains f Qinghai, herders (牧民) als benefit frm slar panels. Standing 1.2 metres high, they act like huge umbrellas. The shadw they prvide prtects the sheep frm the burning heat in summer, while the space under the panels grws fresh grass. This harmnius mixture f traditinal herding and mdern technlgy allws herders t sell wl and electricity as well, with many nearly dubling their incme.
This success is nt just lcal. Chinese cmpanies are sharing their ideas wrldwide. In Argentina, a slar farm built with China’s help nw prvides pwer fr 100,000 hmes and brings in mney fr lcal farmers. In Saudi Arabia, plans are in prgress t build slar farms in deserts using methds develped in China. Even African natins like Namibia are practicing Chinese slar technlgy t reduce their dependence n fssil fuels like cal and il.
Frm deserts t farms, China’s slar revlutin ffers a pssibility f sustainable (可持续的) develpment. As the sun sets ver the Gbi Desert, the panels cntinue their quiet wrk—a reminder that the future f energy might just be written in sunlight and sand.

Fr centuries, sailrs have tld amazing stries f “milky seas”. Imagine sailing at night when suddenly the entire cean turns bright white. It prduces a steady light and glws like a field f heavy snw. It is s large that it can be seen even frm space! Sailrs als reprt that the cean becmes strangely calm during these events.
Fr a lng time, it was a mystery between myth and science. It is s rare that there is nly ne knwn phtgraph f it, taken in 2019. Nw, by creating a database frm ld sailr reprts and mdern satellite pictures, scientists have becme detectives and managed t study the situatin.
Scientists believe the primary surce f the light is billins f tiny bacteria in the water. This is different frm the quick and sudden bright light f planktn (浮游生物). Accrding t their study, the glwing bacteria might live with a type f algae (藻类) that creates calming slime (黏液) n the surface f water.
Their detective wrk als discvered ther fascinating details. Fr example, milky seas are nt just small patches f light. They can be very huge, smetimes cvering an area larger than a state. Besides, their appearance may be cnnected t climate patterns like La Niña, which bring nutrient-rich waters t the surface, feeding the bacteria.
Yet, fr all its beauty, this impressive scene might hld a darker meaning. The bacteria thught t cause milky seas is als a knwn “killer” f sme fish. As the scientists nte, if these milky seas becme mre cmmn, it culd be a very clear warning sign frm the cean itself.
1．What is the cean like when there is a milky sea?
A．The water suddenly becmes cler.B．The water is unusually thick and still.
C．The water changes int ice vernight.D．The water becmes very clear quickly.
2．Why was it s difficult fr scientists t study milky seas directly?
A．The glwing area was dangerus t cme clse.B．Satellites culdn’t take clear pictures f the cean.
C．They were believed t be myths made up by sailrs.D．The events were very uncmmn and unpredictable.
3．Where des the light in a milky sea cme frm?
A．Calming slime.B．Glwing algae.C．Glwing bacteria.D．Shining planktn.
4．What is this article mainly abut?
A．A mysterius event in the cean.B．A discvery f deep-sea creatures.
C．A situatin causing climate change.D．Sea pllutin resulting frm sailing.

Thugh amng the mst ppular pets, huse cats remain mysterius (神秘的) t many. While we knw exactly when they’re hungry, it is ften unclear what they pay attentin t at ther times. Nw, researchers have fund that these independent animals can learn the names f ther cats they live with. Sme might even cnnect their human friends’ faces with their names.
The researchers examined the actins f cats living in hmes with at least tw cats, and cmpared them with cats living in cat cafes (咖啡馆). In the test, each cat was shwn a pht f a cat they knew n a screen while a recrded vice played crrect and incrrect names. When the name did nt match the cat they were lking at, the huse cats wuld fix their eyes n it lnger and tilt (倾斜) their heads, as if thinking. “Is this certain t be my friend’s name?”
Hwever, cats living in cat cafes did nt act the same way. The researchers suggest that this is because cafe cats are called by a number f names by different visitrs. As a result, they have less chance t hear ne exact name repeated ver and ver again, making it harder fr them t learn it prperly.
The researchers als wndered whether cats can learn human names. The results were less clear than with cat names, but a pattern appeared: Cats that had lived with a larger family f humans fr a lnger time seemed better at cnnecting human faces with names.
Unless we can invent a machine that truly understands animals’ thughts, it’s impssible t knw fr sure what is ging n in a cat’s mind. But this study shws that thrugh everyday family life, cats d seem t remember which name ges with which persn. This finding prves ur pet cats are really quite smart——they learn far mre frm living with us than we ften realize.
1．What can we learn abut cats frm paragraph 1?
A．They depend n humans t much.B．They are the mst mysterius pets.

3．Why didn’t the cafe cats act the same as the huse cats?
A．They weren’t as smart as huse cats.B．They didn’t live with a large family.
C．The visitrs were nt their wners.D．They heard different names frm peple.
4．What can we infer (推断) frm the research?

On August 14, 2025, Beijing held the wrld’s first Humanid Rbt Games (人形机器人比赛). The event tk place at the Natinal Speed Skating Oval. Over 500 rbts frm 16 cuntries frmed 280 teams. The three-day cmpetitins had three fun parts—sprts, perfrmance shws and daily tasks.
In sprts events, rbts jined running races, high jump and sccer. The mst exciting part was a 5v5 sccer game where the rbts culd make decisins all by themselves withut human help. Fr perfrmance shws, rbts danced in grups and did cl kung fu. 60 small rbts even wre clrful Chinese pera clthes t put n a wnderful shw that made everyne cheer. In daily task tests, rbts finished jbs like cleaning htel rms in 20 minutes r putting hspital medicines in rder.
Besides, teams frm tp universities (such as Tsinghua University and Peking University) and cmpanies tk part. They jined teams frm ther cuntries. A Chinese fficial said every rbt was “making histry”. Smetimes rbts stumbled while perfrming, but the event’s gal was t make technlgy better thrugh real practice. He said, “We allw rbts t fall r even make mistakes smetimes. Letting rbts fall 100 times n the field is better than 1,000 tests in the lab (实验室).”
This special event nt nly shws that China has made great prgress in AI rbt technlgy but als lets us see a bright future where humans and machines wrk tgether happily t make life better.

There are challenges (挑战) t recycling clthes. But a cmpany in France is trying t make it easier.
The cmpany is called CETIA．It built tw machines that use artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能) t help recycle clthes and shes. With AI technlgy, ne machine can find and cut ff zippers and buttns (拉链和纽扣) n clthes, while the ther machine can pull ff sles (鞋底) frm shes easily.
This sunds simple, but n ne has ever dne it befre. “N ne was recycling sles because it was hard t separate (分离) them frm shes,” said Chle Salmn Legagneur, directr f CETIA．Peple had t put the shes n an ven t melt (熔化) the glue and pull ff the sles by hand. But CETIA’s machine can d it much mre easily.
Sme clthes can be recycled int materials fr huses r rads. But mst clthes d nt becme new clthes again. That’s because clthes have different materials that must be separated carefully by hand. That usually takes a lng time and is expensive. But CETIA’s machine can d the separatin faster and better than peple. It can even separate clthes by clr and material, making it easier t recycle them int new clthes.
Recycling clthes and shes is imprtant because it reduces waste and can even create new jbs. CETIA is ding amazing wrk by develping thse recycling machines. They’re shwing us that with smart thinking, we can find ways t slve big prblems.

When yu take ntes in yur classes, will yu g back and lk ver them? Or d yu actually frget all f the infrmatin yu wrte dwn after class? A useful nte-taking methd (方法) can nt nly save yur time, but als help yu better understand what yu have learned.
This well-knwn nte-taking methd is called the Crnell Nte-taking System which was first develped by Walter Pauk at Crnell University. Accrding t Crnell Ntes, each page is divided int several parts: the nte-taking clumn (栏), the cue (提示) clumn and the summary (总结) space.
The biggest nte-taking clumn is used t write dwn ntes while yu are in class r reading an article. The key pint is that yu dn’t write dwn what yu hear wrd by wrd. What yu write dwn needs t be very brief. Yu can use symbls r keywrds instead f lng sentences.
Yu can write sme questins in the cue clumn. The next step is t cver the nte-taking clumn with a piece f paper. Then, by nly lking at the questins abut key wrds, try t repeat in yur wn wrds.
The summary space is t help yu lk back n what yu’ve learned. Questins may als be useful. Fr example, what’s the meaning f these facts? Yu can als write dwn yur wn ideas and persnal feelings. Dn’t frget t review frm time t time s that yu will remember the infrmatin mre easily.
After a few mnths f using this handy nte-taking methd, yu’ll finally be able t remember what yu have learned.

Whether yu’re telling smene hw t get t yur huse r guiding a stranger t a lcal museum, yu shuld knw hw t give gd directins. Giving directins, thugh, is harder than just telling smene hw t get t a certain lcatin. Let’s learn hw t guide thers better.
First, instead f directing a persn frm beginning t end, think f it as directing him frm landmark (地标) t landmark. And mentin imprtant and hard-t-miss landmarks. These will give the persn an idea f the prgress he’s making and als let the persn knw if he’s still n the path yu advised him t take.
If yu can’t describe the rute (路线) clearly in wrds, draw a map. A map allws the persn t imagine where he’s ging. Yu can als include details, such as the lcatin f landmarks, n yur map. Als, the map can give the persn smething t hld n t s he wn’t frget yur directins.
Althugh it might be cnvenient t give smene directins t yur favurite shrtcut (近路), it culd d mre harm than gd. Instead, give the simplest directins. This will reduce the risk f the persn getting lst. When cnsidering the simplest rute, chse rutes with fewer turns, even if the persn takes a bit lnger, r pick rutes where the persn can stay n ne rad fr a lng time. Avid suggesting rutes yu haven’t persnally taken.
Finally, dn’t rush when giving directins. Take time t explain imprtant details, such as pssible dangers. If yu dn’t speak slwly r clearly, the persn may miss an imprtant piece f infrmatin. At the same time, avid using wrds, phrases, r names that nly lcals knw. Any example yu use shuld be recgnisable (可辨认的) t smene frm utside yur cmmunity.

It is ften said, “Yu can’t live nly n air.” But nw the Chinese scientists will tell yu: Maybe yu can.
A team f Chinese scientists have develped a new technlgy. They turned CO₂, ne f the main greenhuse gases, int starch (淀粉).
Starch is the main part f flur, rice and crn that we eat every day. Usually, it’s created by plants with CO₂, water and sunlight. Accrding t the team’s directr Ma Yanhe, it takes the plants nearly 60 steps t prduce starch. But nw, the team, after six years f hard wrk, has fund a simpler way t d this, with nly 11 steps.
“Our study shws that creating smething like starch is pssible in a lab, and this technlgy may be helpful in many areas,” said Ma.
The scientists first turned CO₂ and hydrgen (氢气) int methanl (甲醇). Then they turned these small and simple methanl mlecules (分子) int bigger and mre cmplex nes. Finally, the starch was prduced.
This methd makes it pssible t prduce fd in factries, replacing traditinal farming. This will nt nly help make plenty f fd, but als save water and land. It may als help recycle CO₂ t deal with climate change, accrding t China Daily.
The study can be helpful in space, t. Astrnauts (宇航员) may n lnger need t wrry abut their fd as they travel in space. They may simply turn the CO₂ they breathe ut int the fd they eat!
1．What’s the main part f flur, rice and crn?

B．They prduced rice and crn n the farm.
C．They turned CO₂ and hydrgen int methanl.
D．They made methanl mlecules int bigger nes.
3．What des the underlined wrd “cmplex” mean in Chinese?
A．轻盈的B．单一的C．复杂的D．环保的
4．The technlgy may be helpful in the fllwing areas EXCEPT ________.
A．prducing fdB．putting sunlight t gd use
C．saving water and landD．dealing with climate change
5．Accrding t the passage, which f the fllwing is TRUE?
A．It is pssible t turn CO₂ int crn nw.
