SSI Advanced Adventurer Course

•2 sessions of 8h

•The AAC starts on every Wednesday and Saturday, lasting 2 days

•Fees: $450

Exploration, Excitement, Experiences

That’s what the Advanced Adventurer course is all about. You don’t have to be “advanced” to take it — it’s designed to advance your diving, so you can start right after earning your Open Water Diver certification. The course helps build confidence and expand your scuba skills through different Adventure Dives.

Who should take this course?

Open Water Divers who are at least 12 years old are ready to step up and sign up for an Advanced Adventurer course. Divers under 18 may only participate in certain Adventures Dives — check with your SSI Instructor.

What will you learn?

You’ll plan your learning path with your instructor by choosing from a long list of Adventure Dives. There are two required dives — Deep and Underwater Navigation — and you choose the other three. During the Deep Adventure Dive, you learn how to plan dives to deal with the physiological effects and challenges of deeper scuba diving. The Underwater Navigation Adventure Dive helps improve your navigation skills. The other knowledge and skills you get vary with your interest and the adventures you have — photography, fish identification, exploring wrecks and many more.

What scuba equipment will you use?

Beyond basic scuba equipment, you’ll need a compass and a dive knife. You may also use specialized equipment depending on the Adventure Dives you choose. Your SSI Instructor will explain the equipment that you need and may suggest additional equipment.

1. On which of the following dates can you take the course?

A. From Friday to Saturday. B. From Saturday to Sunday.

C. From Tuesday to Wednesday. D. From Wednesday to Saturday.

2. How many dives can you learn during the course?

C. Advanced scuba skills. D. Open Water Diver certification.

They said it couldn’t be done. They said he was crazy. They said he would never make it.

But Duane Hansen and his beautiful pumpkin, which he named Berta, proved them all wrong. Like Cinderella’s fairy godmother, this Nebraska man proved that you really can turn a pumpkin into a functional vehicle — in this case, a seaworthy vessel(船).

Yes, you read that right. Hansen wanted to celebrate his 60th birthday by hollowing out his prized 846-pound pumpkin and sailing down the Missouri River inside it. Not only did Hansen enjoy a pumpkin sail on his special day, but his 38-mile journey also landed him a world record! In case you wondered, the previous world record for the longest sail in a pumpkin was 25 miles, set by a North Dakota man in 2018.

It wasn’t an easy journey. Growing a pumpkin big enough to use as a boat is already a challenge. Then, there was his chosen waterway. The city of Bellevue, Nebraska, posted a photogragh of Hansen on the water that offers a reminder of just how big the Missouri River is.

“He has always said that you can do anything you want and I’m just so proud,” Hansen’s daughter Morgan Buchholz said.

Hansen reportedly spent nearly a decade trying to grow a pumpkin big enough to work as a sailing vessel. He was inspired to begin his mission after meeting a woman who had previously won “the Biggest Pumpkin Competition”. He asked her many questions about her experience.

As for his pumpkin-sailing future, “I’m done with this.” Hansen said that the voyage made his knees ache. The wake (尾流) from boats was rough, and when they passed, he said he had to stop everything and just hang on. “If somebody breaks this record, I will, like, bow down to them because they are tough,” he said.

4. Why did Hansen go on a pumpkin journey?

A. To observe his birthday. B. To show his prized pumpkin.

C. To break a world record. D. To prove pumpkin could be a vessel.

5. What did Hansen do to make his journey possible?

A. He chose a calm waterway.

B. He talked with the previous record holder.

C. He convinced his family to support his plan.

D. He worked a long time to grow the pumpkin.

6. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A. His knees got seriously injured in the sailing.

B. His vessel tured over in the wake from boats.

C. Hansen will respect whoever breaks his record.

D. Hansen will continue the pumpkin-sailing in future.

7. What does Hansen’s story tell us?

A. It is never too old to learn.

B. Time and tide wait for no man.

C. Where there’s a will, there’s a way.

D. Fear always springs from ignorance

C

As the climate crisis speeds up, Europe is warming faster than any other region, according to a new State of the  Climate in Europe report from the World Meteorological Organization.

The WMO report comes ahead of the UN’s international climate summit in Egypt, and is one in a series of reports over the past several weeks that show how the world is off-track on its climate goals. Not only are countries  missing  the mark on their efforts to reduce planet-warming fossil fuel emissions (排放物), but measurements show temperatures are already skyrocketing.

Some continents are feeling that rise more than others. Wednesday’s report shows temperatures in Europe have increased at more than twice the global average over the past 30 years — at a rate of about 0.5 degrees Celsius per decade.

Recent reports show how the region’s temperature rise is fueling extreme weather.

Year-to-date through July, the number of wildfires in the EU was four times the 15-year average. A deadly, record-breaking heatwave in the UK harmed public health and bent infrastructure (基础设施). Exceptional drought troubled the continent this summer, drying up some of the world’s most economically important rivers. And that drought that came on the heels of some of the most destructive floods Europe has ever seen.

“Europe presents a live picture of a warming world and reminds us that even well-prepared societies are not safe  from impacts of extreme weather events,” said WMO Secretary-General Petteri Taalas in a forward on the report.

“European society is vulnerable (易受伤害) to climate variability and change, but Europe is also at the  forefront of the international effort to address climate change and to develop innovative solutions to adapt to the new climate Europeans will have to live with,” Carlo Buontempo, director of the Copernicus Climate Change Service, said in a statement.

Taalas said in his forward that although Europe’s pace on cutting planet-warming emissions has been “good,” their  ambition on this front “should be further increased.”

8. What can we learn about the world’s climate goals from the WMO report?

A. They are unrealistic. B. They are easy to reach.

C. They are taken seriously. D. They are far from being achieved.

9. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?

A. The economic losses in Europe.

B. The causes of the climate crisis in Europe.

C. The increase of extreme weather in Europe.

D. The most destructive natural disaster in Europe.

10. What is Buontempo’s attitude towards Europe’s effort to fight climate change?

A. Doubtful. B. Favorable.

C. Unclear. D. Intolerant.

11. What should Europe do to further cut emissions according to Taalas?

A. Take the lead. B. Set a higher goal.

C. Make better preparations. D. Carry on their good work.

D

U.S. teens spend more than eight hours a day on screens, and there’s growing concern over how social media may affect their mental health. Now, a new study has found that limiting screen time to about one hour a day helped anxious teens feel better about their body image and their appearance.

The study arose from the personal experience of Helen Thai, a doctoral student in psychology at MeGill University. “What I noticed when I was engaging in social media was that I couldn’t help but compare myself,” Thai says. She was well aware that social media posts often feature polished, airbrushed or filtered images that can alter (改变) appearances in an unrealistic way, but it still affected her negatively.

So, Thai and a team of researchers decided to test whether cutting time on social media platforms including Instagram, TikTok and Snapchat would improve body image. They recruited a few hundred volunteers, all of whom had experienced symptoms of anxiety or depression, which could make them vulnerable to the effects of social media. Half of the participants were asked to reduce their social media to 60 minutes a day for three weeks while the other half continued to use social media with no restrictions, which averaged about three hours per day.

The researchers gave the participants surveys at the beginning and end of the study, which included statements such as “I’m pretty happy about the way I look,” and “I am satisfied with my weight.” Among the group that cut social media use, the overall score on appearance improved from 2.95 to 3.15 on a 5-point scale. This may seem like a small change, but any shift in such a short period of time is striking, the authors say.

“The study is encouraging, but it only included people who had symptoms of anxiety or depression. It’s worth evaluating this approach with other groups, such as people with or at risk of eating disorders. It’s also possible that the benefits of cutting back could extend more broadly to anyone in this age group,” says Psychologist Andrea Graham, co-director of the Center for Behavioral Intervention at Northwestern University.

12. What problem may social media bring to teenagers according to Thai?

A. They may become addicted to the Internet.

B. They tend to become sensitive to others’ comments.

C. They may have unrealistic expectations of their image.

D. They tend to compare themselves with the images posted online.

13. What can we learn about the participants during the study?

A. They scored their appearance twice.

B. Half of them stopped using social media.

C. They hoped to improve their body image.

D Most of them showed dissatisfaction with their weight.

14. What did Graham think of the study?

A. It was a good try but had limitations.

B. It was well designed but poorly conducted.

C. It was a failure but the methods deserved praise.

D. It was encouraging but the evidence was unreliable.

15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A. Shorter Screen Time, Better Feelings on Look

B. How to Help Teenagers Limit Screen time

C. How Social Media Changes Teenagers

D. Less Anxiety, Better Image

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

I looked around at the other patients waiting to see the doctor. Maybe they all had more romantic plans for the evening on this Valentine’s Day, but for now the group seemed anti-social. Three people had their heads down, staring at cell phones. Another was absorbed in a magazine. The receptionist tapped at her computer. Everyone was in their own little world.

But I couldn’t judge them for it. I would probably be buried in my cell phone too—if I hadn’t forgotten to charge it before I left home. It would have been nice to strike up a conversation to pass the time on this day, a day of love and friendship. Instead I sat patiently in my plastic chair as a couple of new people took distant seats.

“Roberta? The doctor’s ready for you,” the nurse called. At least I’ll have some kind of human connection, I thought.

My checkup went well, and I breezed out of the office to my little Honda in a space right out front. I got in and tured the key. Nothing. Oh, no. Not again. I’d sent the car to the garage several times already for this very problem and thought it had finally been fixed.

I reached for my cell phone to call AAA — then remembered. It was dead, like my car. I would have to use the phone inside. A few people glanced up when I came back into the waiting room, then quickly went back to what they were doing. I went straight to the reception desk, but the receptionist was not there. So I tured back to the people in the waiting room.

“I wouldn’t normally do this,” I said to the group, hoping that I sounded apologetic. Several people tured toward me to listen. “But my car won’t start …”

The nurse popped her head into the room. “You in trouble, Roberta?” she said. “I’ll go and take a look.” I followed the nurse outside. As I passed through the door, I felt someone was behind me.

注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右;

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

I turned to see all the other patients following me.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

I said a quick prayer and turned the key.
