Standing n the shre f a lake. I can’t help but marvel at the tens r hundreds f thusands f small rcks that surrund my bts. They were all created frm hard surfaces, their edges sftening ver time.
And I wnder, can we learn frm a pile f rcks?
Even the tallest muntains have wrn dwn; nne are as tall as they were 1.000 years ag. And much like a rck, I’ve fund my attitude has sftened and my desire t better understand thers has expanded with each trip arund the sun.
Once I t was a sharp rck cvered in pinty edges. Tday, after decades f the waters f life cursing ver me, my edges are sfter and mre understanding. I’m less likely t judge and mre interested in learning hw we can exist tgether.
But I’m nt a rck. I’m a human being filled with all the drama built int my DNA.
Tw years ag, while traveling in the Pacific Nrthwest, I watched a restaurant wner ask several peple t leave fr nt wearing masks. Nt frceful and nt rude. On the dr read a sign: “Please wear a mask befre entering ur restaurant. We dn’t like it either, but let’s all d what we can t get thrugh this tgether.”
The grup f yung men wished t argue abut the nte.
I sat watching, understanding bth sides. I’ve been thse guys befre, using my yuthful edges t chip away at the wrld. What I lst, hwever, was the ability t grw frm experiences by lking thrugh the eyes f thers. In learning t be mre pen, I’ve als fund mre happiness and success.
Yu can fit mre runded rcks in a jar than thse with sharp edges. The frmer lk fr ways t adjust and make rm fr thers; the latter never give an inch t accmmdate thers.
Time, like the waters rlling against nce sharp stnes, changes us by washing away ur resistance t seeing the wrld frm anther’s pint f view.
I placed a runded stne int my jacket pcket. Mther Nature is hlding class again.
4. What des the authr cmpare the rcks t?
A. Peple’s abilities. B. Peple’s persnalities. C. What nature ffers us.D. Challenges we cme acrss.
5. Why did the grup f guys argue in the restaurant?
A. They were dissatisfied with the wner’s attitude t them.
B. They were unwilling t d what the wner wished them t.
C. They intended t skip ut n the bill due t the pr service.
D. They were nt allwed t leave the restaurant fr their rudeness.
6. What des the authr want t tell us with this text?
A. We shuld adjust t new cnditins. B. Be brave when in the face f difficulties in life.
C. It’s necessary t cnsider the feelings f thers. D. Being pen and understanding brings yu mre happiness.

Hw are yu feeling tday? Often when we ask peple that questin, they reply ‘nt bad’, r ‘culd be wrse’. But what wuld make us feel ‘perfect’? Maybe we culd live better by being healthier, less stressed, mre mtivated—but hw?
Of curse there are many ways f imprving ur mental health, but smetimes there are small and simple slutins t helping imprve ur wellbeing. It’s smething the TV prgramme Easy Ways t Live Well has been lking at. It suggested several ‘health hacks’ which the prgramme’s presenters tried and gave their ‘seal f apprval’. And maybe they culd help us t.
Firstly, t deal with putting n weight and t cut the calries, the prgramme fund sniffing (嗅) peppermint (薄荷) stps ur lnging fr a snack. Presenter, chef and writer Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall says “a scientific thery called ‘mutual cmpetitin’ shws that a strng smell can distract ur brain frm the fd we’re thinking abut.”
If yur addictin t yur smartphne is getting yu dwn, it’s suggested that turning yur phne screen grey helps yu reduce screen time because a black and white screen becmes less attractive t lk at. With recent studies shwing ur phnes can make us 26% less prductive and increase ur stress, it seems like a n-brainer t try this ‘dim’ idea.
Fancy a swim in ice-cld water? Well, the TV prgramme fund a daily dip in freezing water gets yu used t the stress f ding it and therefre prepares yu fr ther life stresses. And anther way t ‘chill ut’ is t leave yur smartphne at hme, immerse yurself in a frest, and breathe in the fresh air. Frest bathing is the perfect tnic fr the stresses f urban life.
Other life-imprving ideas included things such as singing t reduce pain and walking arund mre t get away frm ur sedentary (久坐不动) lives. But whatever way we chse t adpt, it seems any change t ur lifestyle can help imprve ur bdy and mind.
8. What’s the functin f a series f questins in the first paragraph?
A. T prvide mre backgrund infrmatin.B. T prvke thinking and bring ut the tpic.
C. T expect readers can give specific answers.D. T attract readers t fcus n physical health.
9. What’s the authr’s attitude twards the TV prgramme Easy Ways t Live Well?
A. Favrable.B. Unclear.C. Negative.D. Critical.
10. Which f the fllwing can be inferred frm the passage?
A. The strng smell f peppermint is bund t cut the calries.
B. T remve life stresses, yu must have a swim in freezing water.
C. Making the phne screen clrful makes us mre fcused and efficient.
D. An ice-water swim and frest bathing have the similar effect n stresses.
11. What’s the purpse f the passage?
A. T tell readers hw t be perfect.B. T intrduce a ppular TV prgramme.
C. T ffer sme ways t better well-being.D. T get rid f sme bad habits in daily life.
D
Mst birds, in particular, exhibit sme degree f patterns and clurs. Australia’s zebra finch (斑胸草雀), fr example, was s named because f the zebra-like black and white bars n its tail. But it als has many ther clurs and patterns, frm a bright range bill t fine white sptting alng its reddish-brwn sides.
The zebra finch is Australia’s widely distributed grass-finch species, ccurring thrughut mst f mainland Australia. It’s a cmmn and familiar bird in the drier parts f the cuntry.
When we see such a highly patterned bird we presume all individuals f that species have their spts and bars in the same places. But lk clser and we’ll see that the quantity and design f these patterns varies between individuals. And every nw and then a bird exhibits a mre bvius feather variatin. Occasinally, we see ne that has larger than usual pale areas f feathers r, mre rarely, has lst its nrmal patterning altgether.
Cluratin and patterning in all animals is caused by a range f pigments (色素). Melanin (黑色素) is respnsible fr blacks and brwns, and a lack f this pigment can cause a partial r ttal lss f an individual’s dark patterning. The tw main terms that describe these abnrmalities are albinism (白化病) and leucism (白色亚种). Bth cnditins are genetic and bth can lead t a very similar physical appearance. Leucism, hwever, causes a lack f the pigment cells that prduce melanin. But albinism causes the prductin f melanin pigment t be reduced r absent.
Can we distinguish between the tw cnditins withut the help f a cellular bilgist? Yes. Albin animals have fully unpigmented red eyes. Leucistic animals, n the ther hand, never cmpletely lse pigment frm the eye, althugh they can have blue eyes due t a partial lss f pigment.
Why dn’t we see mre albin r leucistic birds? Because the lack f melanin reduces the strength and lastingness f the affected birds’ feathers, making them mre easily brken. Additinally, the birds’ visin and hearing is negatively affected, making them less able t hunt. The brighter feathers and lack f patterning als make them easier fr attackers t see.
12. What can be learned abut Australia’s zebra finch?
A. It is ne f the rarest birds in Australia.
B. It is mstly cvered with bright range feathers.
C. It acquires its name frm its tail clurs and patterns.
D. It has the same spts and bars in the same places.
13. What des the underlined wrd “presume” mean in paragraph three?
A. Recall.B. Suppse.C. Deny.D. Recmmend.
14. Hw is paragraph fur develped?
A. By setting assumptins.B. By presenting pinins.
C. By giving explanatins.D. By drawing cnclusins.
15. Which f the fllwing crrectly describes albin r leucistic birds?
A. They have quite gd hearing.B. They have cmpletely red eyes.
C They have easily brken feathers.D. They have excellent hunting skills.
