Standing 70 feet abve the water, mst wuld be seized by fear. Yet, Kaylea Arnett is “as cl as a cucumber”. As a frmer diving star, Arnett’s jurney is nt ne f careful planning, but f a “free spirit” stepping int the unknwn. After graduating with a unique cmbinatin f philsphy and language science, Arnett faced a crssrads. Withut a set plan, she fllwed her passin fr diving t Macau, China, jining the circus. Mving frm traditinal 10-meter platfrms t 25-meter heights was a psychlgical challenge. “Ging twice as high as I was used t was scary at first, but nce yu d it, it’s really addicting,” she recalled. This marked her first majr shift: transfrming fear int an “addictive” pursuit f heights.
When the glbal public event frze the entertainment industry, Arnett adjusted t the change by running a cffee shp in Mexic. Eventually, she secured a highly-regarded spt in Cirque du Sleil’s “O”—a water shw held at the Bellagi in Las Vegas. Fr three years, she enjyed the stability f perfrming fr cheers rather than scres. Hwever, a quiet urge began t grw. She started questining her chices, disturbed by the pssibility f future regrets. “It’s always been kncking n the dr, and I’ve just never pened that dr yet,” she admitted. This internal struggle between the “laid-back lifestyle” f shws and the high-pressure wrld f cmpetitin defined her next turning pint.
Deciding t “check every bucket list”, Arnett threw herself back int cmpetitin in 2024. Her return was triumphant, placing her amng the wrld’s tp high divers with a ptential Olympic future in 2028.
Reflecting n her wandering path, Arnett views herself as a “tumbleweed”, a nd t her Texas rts. “Wherever life takes yu, just be able t adapt t that situatin,” she said. Fr Arnett, life is an cean f pssibilities where the “wind f destiny (命运)” guides her tward ever-greater heights.

B. She is an adaptable adventurer.
C. She is afraid f heights when standing abve water.
D. She was greatly influenced by the majr she chse.

In Kentucky, a unique site serves as bth a farm and a pwer plant. While large-scale slar arrays (大规模光伏阵列) ften use sheep t manage grass and plants, the develper Silicn Ranch is testing a mre ambitius prject: integrating slar energy with cattle. This practice, knwn as agrivltaics, aims t maximize land use by cmbining renewable energy with fd prductin.
“The cmbinatin f slar and cattle culd transfrm the renewable energy landscape,” says Nick de Vries, Silicn Ranch’s chief technlgy fficer. By using vast stretches f grazing land (牧场), cmpanies can expand slar capacity withut taking up land fr agricultural businesses. This is vital in regins like Kentucky, where land cmpetitin is a majr cncern.
Hwever, cattle present unique challenges cmpared t sheep. “They’re very large animals,” de Vries explains. “Cattle brush against things. They like t push.” Unlike sheep, which easily fit under slar panels, cattle can damage equipment. T slve this, Silicn Ranch develped CattleTracker. The main idea is that panels are easiest t damage when they are standing straight up. The CattleTracker system adjusts the panels t stay hrizntal when cattle are nearby, preventing the animals frm running int them.
Furthermre, the system ges well with traditinal farming. Wrkers mve cattle peridically t allw grass t recver. Slar panels can perate with nrmal tracking when cattle are away and switch t “limited tracking” mde when they return. This marriage f technlgy and agriculture als fcuses n managing bidiversity and increasing the sil’s capacity t stre carbn.
Despite a shift in gvernment plicy and the reductin f renewable energy subsidies (补贴), de Vries remains ptimistic. While gvernment-funded research has helped us understand the envirnmental effects f slar grazing, he believes the industry shuld nt rely nly n subsidies. “Yu shuld aim fr a gd business slutin, and then find what’s ging t wrk in ther places,” he states. If successful, this mdel culd turn a climate challenge int a sustainable (可持续的), net-psitive slutin fr bth energy and fd.
8. Why is the prject in Kentucky significant?
A. It reslves land use cnflicts.B. It bsts lcal sheep farming.
C. It reduces slar energy csts.D. It creates new jbs fr the natives.
9. What is the cre functin f the CattleTracker system?
A. T track the mvement f cattle.
B. T mnitr the health cnditin f cattle.
C. T increase the efficiency f slar panels.
D. T prtect equipment frm ptential damage.
10. What des de Vries suggest fr the industry’s future?
A. Expanding scientific research scale.B. Seeking mre gvernment subsidies.
C. Pursuing market-driven grwth mdels.D. Restructuring gvernment energy plicies.
11. What wuld be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Agrivltaics: Saving Kentucky’s Agriculture
B. Challenges in Raising Cattle n Slar Farms
C. Technlgy’s Influence n Kentucky’s Animals
D. New Partnership: Slar Pwer Meets Cattle Grazing

As AI systems take n increasingly humanlike tasks, there’s been a push t understand hw they “see” the wrld. “Our brains use clever ways t pick ut details frm ur busy surrundings,” says Eiji Watanabe, an assciate prfessr f neurphysilgy. Relying n them ften leads t ptical illusins (视错觉), which were nce thught t be unique t humans. Yet, certain AI mdels fall fr the same visual tricks, particularly thse designed t cpy human brain pathways.
In his study, Watanabe and his team tested a deep neural netwrk called “PredNet” by shwing it still images that humans view as mving, such as the “rtating (转动) snakes” illusin. It was fund that the AI’s predictive system generated “illusry mtin” just like a human brain did. Fr example, after being trained n thusands f natural vides, PredNet began t predict future frames based n past experience. When faced with specific patterns, the AI mistakenly “saw” rtatin in a still image, matching the human experience.
While cpying human perceptin (感知) may be a sign f advanced AI, it may als lead t unexpected errrs in critical tasks. The same mechanisms (机制) that allw fr rapid prcessing can cause visual errrs. In AI-driven technlgies like medical imaging r self-driving cars, misinterpreting a still bject as mving culd lead t serius cnsequences.
Watanabe’s study als fund that creating a perfect artificial visual system was difficult. Fr instance, even thugh AI can cpy the illusin, it lacks a key human feature: the “attentin mechanism.” If a human fixes their eyes n ne spt, the illusin ften stps; hwever, the AI cntinues t perceive mtin acrss the entire image.
Hwever, Watanabe sees these mistakes as a valuable pprtunity t understand the human brain. When AI falls fr an illusin, it supprts theries like “predictive cding” — the cncept that we see what we expect t see. These mdels ffer a way t study cmplex brain functins and sensry differences withut the mral cncerns f human experimentatin.
12. Which aspect f AI systems des Watanabe’s study fcus n?
A. Their verall prcessing speed.B. Their perceptin f the wrld.
C. Their precisin in srting images.D. Their applicatin in medical fields.
13. What causes AI t experience the “illusry mtin”?
A. Its reliance n previus visual knwledge.
B. Its inability t detect sme specific patterns.
C. Its absence f an imprtant attentin mechanism.
D. Its design independent f human brain pathways.
14. Hw des AI differ frm humans in visual perceptin?
A. It lacks a fcus-based self-crrectin system.
B. It prcesses visual details at a slwer rate.
C. It fails t distinguish mtin frm rtatin.
D. It ignres crucial details f still images.
15. What value des Watanabe find in AI’s making visual mistakes?
A. It shws the disadvantage f predictive cding.
B. It ffers a mral way t study the human brain.
C. It explains the cmplexity f sensry differences.
D. It helps t create perfect artificial visual systems.

My nine-year-ld daughter lked up at me, hping I wuld jin her fr a walk n the beach. But my never-ending t-d list jumped instantly, and my eyes drifted t the dinner dishes piled high in the sink, a silent refusal frming in my mind.
I planned t tell her we culd g tmrrw—I had t wash the dishes, and the whle day’s busyness exhausted me. Staring at her eager eyes, I remembered making the same excuse the night befre, and I culd nt help but ntice the disappintment in her eyes. It was ur first summer living by the beach, and my daughter’s lve fr the beach was far beynd my imaginatin. Spending the entire day playing in the sand and waves was never enugh fr her. She whispered that summer was slipping away, and I knew she was right— summer in New England was always shrt, and if I kept putting it ff, we might miss it entirely. Finally, I tld her we culd g but nly fr a quick walk. She rushed t put n her flip-flps (拖鞋).
As we walked alng the shreline, she stpped nw and then t gaze at the beach beneath her feet and the sky in the distance. She wuld glance at the setting sun and the beautiful pink-and-range sky. But my mind was always elsewhere, barely nticing the beautiful scenery arund us. After just fifteen minutes, I urged her t head back hme.
My attitude did nt change at all ver the next week. Every night, I accmpanied her alng the beach walk unwillingly, never truly calming dwn t enjy the mment. T me, it was just anther task I had t finish, bringing n jy at all.
Then ne day, everything changed. As we apprached the dunes (沙丘), the clr f the sky began t shift gradually. When we reached a place, a breathtaking sunset unflded befre ur eyes— shades f range, yellw, and red lit up the sky like a natural painting. My daughter and I std there in surprise, all my restlessness and impatience fading away in that very mment.
