brken watches back t life. The master watchmaker never expected many peple t care. But tday, the 54-year-ld Sctsman has ver 2.5 millin fllwers nline by simply fixing watches.
Williams runs a small repair shp in Edinburgh. He started psting vides ut f bredm. He takes apart disabled watches ther shps have given up n. One vide, restring a 1940s military watch run ver by a tractr, has been viewed ver 80 millin times.
“I call myself a ‘restratin artist’, but really, I’m just smene wh likes t fix things,” Williams
said. Unlike fast autmated prductin lines, his wrk is very slw. “Yu aren’t just fixing a machine; yu are repairing a memry,” he says. “A custmer sent me his father’s watch last week. It hadn’t wrked fr 35 years. When I gt the secnd hand mving again, he cried.”
Many peple walk past brken watches in flea markets, seeing nly waste. But Williams sees
smething they dn’t. Williams’ success is part f the “mending mvement” nline, a stand against thrwaway culture. While his shp mainly fixes expensive watches, he als supprts repairing cheap but meaningful items. “Peple ask, ‘Is it wrthwhile fixing a 50-year-ld watch?’” I tell them, “Can yu replace the memry f yur wedding day?’” he says.
Althugh his father was a clckmaker, Williams didn’t want t fllw that path at first. He chse t study design instead. After lsing his jb during the 2008 financial crisis, he returned t
the family wrkbench. “I dn’t regret chsing a different path first,” he says. “This isn’t just a jb; it’s my family’s heritage.”
He nw sells restratin tl sets fr beginners and ffers nline lessns t help keep
watchmaking alive. “My gal is t make peple understand that ‘brken’ desn’t mean ‘garbage’,” he says. “With patience, anything can tick again.” As Williams likes t say, dn’t judge a watch by its silence.
Why did Williams start psting vides?
T shw ff great skills.B. T pass the
time.
C. T ease thers’ bredm.D.Tdraw
attentin.
What des Williams mean by mentining “repairing a memry”?
Old watches hld emtinal value.B. Old watches imprve memry.
C. Old watches keep valuable phts.D. Old watches have resale value.
What can we describe Williams’ career path?
Easy and prmising.B. Smth and prfitable.
C. Risky yet successful.D. Winding yet meaningful.
What can we learn frm the text?
A watched pt never bils.B. Rme was nt
built in a day.
C. Better t mend than t end.D. A penny saved
is a penny earned.
C（选必一 U3 Cnservatin）
“I knw I’m part f the factrs causing the climate crisis frm ur climate lessns. These are man-made issues,” explains Srun Skly, a 12th grader in suthern Cambdia. “When humans take t much frm the natural envirnment, we create emissins and pllute the envirnment.”
Skly has witnessed the damage firsthand. “I see flds and heat, and we are highly affected,” she recalls. In 2023, her schl was hit hard by a recrd-breaking heatwave. With n fans and
temperatures rcketing past 40℃, students had t skip classes. Her experience has reflected a
larger reality. In 2024, ver 3.38 millin students in Cambdia faced climate-related schl clsures and class cancellatins.
In class, Skly learns hw t reduce her carbn ftprint by saving electricity, planting trees,
and aviding plastic. “I dn’t feel that nt ding anything is right,” says her classmate Svichara. “Even if the issue is glbal, we still can d smething.” Yunger students are fllwing suit. Ke
Tevy, a sixth grader, helps care fr her schl’s garden. “I dn’t use plastic bags, bttles r even cups here because they pllute ur envirnment,” she says firmly.
What makes these students special is that they becme teachers at hme. Tevy never allws
her mther t take new plastic bags at the market. “We have many used bags at hme, s I try t push t reuse them,” she explains. She als brings her wn water bttle t schl. Similarly, Skly encurages her parents t plant mre trees. “Once in a while, we feel guilty when we use plastic,” she admits. “That is why we try nt t becme plluters.”
Accrding t their principal, sme parents have started listening. They learn frm their
children and begin t cut dwn n plastic waste and save electricity. “We need t take actin,” Skly cncludes. “It starts with us setting an example. We learned it in class, s nw we’ve gtta
live it.”
Hw is the tpic presented in the first paragraph?
By citing a student.B. By defining a cncept.
C. By prviding statistics.D. By making a cmparisn.
What des the authr mainly present in paragraph 2?
The shrtage f cling devices wrldwide.
The imprtance f envirnmental knwledge.
The severity f the climate impact n educatin.
The difficulty in keeping nrmal schl peratins.
What des the underlined wrds “fllwing suit” in paragraph 3 mean?
Fllwing thers t a new place.B. Wearing a frmal set f suit.
C. Ding the same things as thers.D. Giving up n a challenging task.
What can be a suitable title fr the text?
Learning Climate Science in SchlsB. Turning Climate Lessns int Real Actin
C. Hw Parents Learn t Reduce Plastic UseD. Hw t Fight with Climate Crisis Glbally
D（必修三 U9 Learning）
Fr many parents and educatrs, keeping children cnstantly engaged in prductive activities is a tp pririty. Frm pian lessns t math tutring, a child’s schedule is ften packed frm mrning t night. The enemy is “bredm”. Mst parents wrry that t much idle time will hld back their child’s grwth and limit their future ptential. Hwever, a grwing number f psychlgists argue that bredm is nt the enemy; in fact, it is a key element fr creativity and mental develpment.
When a child cmplains, “I’m bred,” an adult’s first reactin is ften t prvide a slutin, like
turning n a tablet r suggesting a game. But by ding s, we may be rbbing children f a valuable pprtunity. Bredm creates a mental state where the mind, n lnger ccupied by external input, begins t wander. This wandering is the birthplace f creativity. Withut a screen t watch r a structured activity t fllw, a child is frced t use their wn imaginatin t invent games, tell stries, r explre their surrundings.
This idea is supprted by research. Studies have shwn that peple wh engaged in a “bring”
task (like cpying numbers frm a phne bk) afterward perfrmed better n creative
prblem-slving tests than thse wh did a relaxing task first. The thery is that bredm signals t the brain that the current situatin is lacking, which mtivates the brain t seek ut new and
mre rewarding mental space. Bredm, in ther wrds, tells the mind it’s time t d smething.
Of curse, nt all bredm is equal. Cnstant, unstructured bredm withut any resurces r a safe envirnment can be negative, leading t feelings f frustratin r hpelessness. The key is balanced bredm. This means prviding children with a rich envirnment, bks, art supplies, a backyard, and then stepping back t let them figure things ut fr themselves.
Next time yur child says, “I’m bred,” try t resist the urge t slve the prblem. Instead, yu
might say, “That’s great. See what yu can cme up with.” Yu might be surprised by the creativity that fllws.
What d mst parents believe abut bredm?
It limits children’s develpment.B. It damages kids’ physical health.
C. It arises frm t heavy burden.D. It reduces children’s imaginatin.
Why des bredm inspire creativity frm the brain’s wrking rule?
It enables the brain t rest.B. It helps kids
slve challenges.
C. It increases self-cnfidence.D. It drives the brain t seek mre.
What influence will unstructured bredm bring t children?
Better prblem-slving skills.B. Negative feelings like disappintment.
C. Willingness t explre nature.D. Mre dependence n electrnic prducts.
What advice des the authr give parents when their kids feel bred?
Share creative stries with kids.B. Offer activities t cheer kids up.
C. Leave kids alne and ignre them.D. Inspire kids t amuse themselves.

When J.K. Rwling spke at a Harvard graduatin ceremny, sme may have been surprised
by the tpic she chse: “The Benefits f Failure”. Rwling’s first nvel was rejected by 12 publishers befre it was finally published. 36 She discvered that she had a strng will and mre
discipline than she had expected.
Similarly, Steve Jbs was fired frm the cmpany he had c-funded. He felt despair and
rejectin. Hwever, in his view, “it was the best thing that culd have ever happened t me.” 37
It was replaced by the lightness f being a beginner again, which freed him t enter ne f the mst creative perids in his life.
Vera Wang, a talented fashin designer, was bitterly disappinted when she did nt make the 1968 US Olympic team. She gave up sprt and jined a magazine as an assistant. 38.
Hwever, this setback prmpted her t set up her wn bridal fashin label. The rest is histry.
39 At tugh mment in their lives, they shwed grit. Put simply, grit is a passin fr
smething and the persistence in hard wrk and stick t it. It’s very easy t give up when we hit setbacks. But peple wh have grit keep ging.
S, hw can we becme “grittier”? 40 If we can learn hw t manage failure, we’ll learn
hw t succeed. By wrking thrugh a series f failures, we are better prepared fr the bigger challenges facing us in the adult wrld. We will have the resilience we need t keep ging. We will have true grit.
The heaviness f being successful was gne.
This is where the imprtance f failure cmes in.
All these individuals share smething in cmmn.
Hwever, it was this experience that helped her t succeed.
Yet, she acquired frm this experience advanced writing skills.
Fr them, grit is f great imprtance in healing their anxius mind.
After 15 years at the magazine, she was passed ver fr prmtin t editr-in-chief.

My dad finally tk us camping by the sea. I had been lking frward t it, but maybe fr the wrng reasn. I thught I culd g nline and text my friends all day. After all, what was the pint f a beautiful beach if yu culdn’t share it? I imagined psting phts and watching the likes pile up. That sunded like the perfect day.
We gt there arund nn. The sun was bright, the water was a deep sparkling blue, and the sand felt warm beneath my feet. My little brther Jack ran straight int the shallw water, screaming with jy. My sister Lily, nly six, started picking up shells ne by ne, hlding each t her

fund a smth rck t sit n, pulled ut my phne, and started scrlling.
My dad std at the water’s edge, lking ut at the sea. “Isn’t it beautiful?” he said sftly. I ndded withut lking up.

The sun climbed higher, and I stayed right where I was.
Then I saw my dad walking tward me. His face was serius, nt angry but disappinted. “Have yu seen the sea?” he asked. I said nthing. “Have yu heard yur brther laugh?” Still nthing. He reached dwn, tk my phne gently but firmly frm my hands, and put it int his bag. “N phne fr the rest f the day,” he said. I was s angry that I culd feel my face burn. I crssed my arms
tightly and sat there n the rck, refusing t mve, refusing t speak, and refusing t even lk at anyne. The faint sund f playful vices and laughter murmured in my ears.

After a while, I lked up at the busy Jack and Lily. “Des the sea really have the magic f filling
their hearts with jy?” I wndered in my mind. Thugh cnfused, I decided t have a sht. The instant my feet tuched the seawater, a wave f freshness and cmfrt washed ver me. When I held a shell t my ear, I seemed t hear the wild cry f the cean. Driven by an urge deep within me, I stepped clser and jined in their games. When the setting sun cast sft rays upn us and the bundless sea, we knew it was time t head back.
When we gt back t the tent, Dad handed me my phne. “Here yu are!” he said. I was still
bathed in the jy f the sea, almst questining whether I needed t carry my phne arund at all. Sensing my hesitatin, Dad placed the phne gently int my palm and added, “It’s great t embrace technlgical advances, but what really cunts is hw we make the mst f them. ” His
