In the 40 years after Edmund Hilary and Tenzing Nrgay first reached the tp f Munt Everest (珠穆朗玛) in 1953, an average f 12 peple a year fllwed in their ftsteps. In 2023, mre than 1,200 peple attempted the climb.
High-tech equipment and better understanding f the physical impact f high altitudes (海拔) have brught new hpefuls t Everest. But Will Cckrell, in his new bk Everest. Inc, argues that the primary reasn is the establishment f a prfessinal guiding industry.
The guiding industry exists mainly because f Dick Bass. Bass, wh made a frtune in il, bught his way nt three different Everest expeditins (探险) and, in 1985, aged 55, he became bth the ldest and least experienced climber t reach the tp. The sight f an rdinary persn n tp f the wrld generated the establishment f cmpanies t meet the new demand fr turs.
The early years f guided expeditins in the 1990s were successful. In 1992-95, arund 150 peple paid t be led up the muntain, and a third succeeded. During a 1995 expeditin, a strm struck. The guides, eager fr their clients t reach the tp, delayed turning them arund. Three guides and tw climbers died. One f the climbers, Jn Krakauer, criticized the judgment f the guides and the selfishness f inexperienced climbers in his bk Int Thin Air. Many businesses assumed that the bk wuld destry them. Hwever, interest in Everest skyrcketed.
In 2014, 16 guides were buried by falling ice while transprting clients’ equipment. Then, in 2015, an avalanche (雪崩) killed ten guides and nine clients. As a result, many Western cmpanies lst their enthusiasm fr Everest.
Everest. Inc ends n a cnfusing nte. Mre peple are reaching the tp, but mre are dying n the way, t: 18 peple died in 2023, the highest-ever number. “Experts knw mre than ever abut hw t guide clients t climb safely. But that des nt make it a safe place,” said Cckrell.

Feeling burned ut and lking fr reasns t wrk less? A new study shws that wrking nights and vlatile (不稳定的) schedules in yung adulthd can leave yu t suffer frm depressin and pr health in middle age.
The research examined the wrk schedules and sleep patterns f mre than 7,000 Americans ver three decades, frm the ages f 22 thrugh 50. T the surprise f the study’s authr, New Yrk University prfessr Wen-Jui Han, nly ne-quarter f the participants wrked traditinal daytime hurs. The remainder wrked variable hurs. Thse with vlatile wrk schedules reprted a greater likelihd f pr health and depressin at age 50 than thse with mre stable schedules.
“Our wrk nw is making us sick and pr,” Han said in an interview. “Wrk is suppsed t allw us t acquire resurces. But, fr a lt f peple, their wrk desn’t allw them t d s. They actually becme mre and mre miserable (悲惨的) ver time.”
Dr. Alysn Myers, a prfessr at the Albert Einstein Cllege f Medicine, appreciated the new study’s fcus n the cnnectin between wrk schedules, sleep and pr health. The study findings cnfirmed what she sees in many f her diabetes (糖尿病) patients, wh ften get n mre than five hurs f sleep after they wrk night shifts.
Many f the participants in Han’s study wh had vlatile wrk schedules tended t have part-time jbs, in sme cases multiple part-time jbs. “Unfrtunately,” Myers said, “the trend fr a lt f these peple is that they have t wrk mre than ne jb t survive.”
Han wuld like her research t prmte cnversatins abut ways f prviding resurces t help peple live a happy and healthy life when they’re dg-tired bth physically and emtinally because f their wrk.

6. What is Myers’s attitude t peple with vlatile wrk schedules?
A. Understanding.B. Uncncerned.C. Dubtful.D. Critical.
7. What is Han’s expectatin f her research?
A. T prvide resurces fr the pr.
B. T help imprve peple’s well-being.
C. T raise awareness f healthy lifestyles.
D. T initiate dialgues between emplyees.

Animal-like rbts are ppular. And yet, says Barbara Mazzlai, an Italian rbticist, the field f rbtics is far less interested in explring the ther majr categry f living things — plants. She puts the unwillingness dwn t a miscnceptin (误解) abut the usefulness f plant behavir: that they are capable f neither mtin nr perceptin (感知). “It’s nt true at all,” she says.
Dr. Mazzlai and her team recently created FilBt, a rbt based n climbing plants. Like the real thing. FilBt is capable f grwing, attaching t and wrapping itself arund supprts, and adapting itself t an envirnment in respnse t external stimuli.
FilBt imitates the behavirs f a climbing tree using sensrs in its head which is als equipped with a layer f plastic and a heating element. By sftening and extruding (挤压出) the plastic in a circular patter, it can 3D-print its wn bdy at a rate f tw t seven millimeters per minute. Depending n brightness and directin, it changes the heat that the plastic is expsed t — lwer temperatures result in a lighter bdy that increases in size mre quickly, while higher temperatures make it thicker and strnger and grw mre slwly.
The researchers fund that these simple functinalities were enugh t let FilBt mve thrugh a cmplex and unseen envirnment, crss gaps and find things t attach t. The lack f heavy n-bard cmputing hardware, they say, means that it mves easily and requires minimal mnitring, while its slw pace means that it desn’t disturb things arund it. They suppse that this makes it suitable fr ptential applicatins including envirnmental mnitring in hard-t-reach lcatins, r mnitring disaster sites where existing facilities is unstable.
Dr. Mazzlai hpes that such prjects will mtivate ther rbticists t draw inspiratin frm plants. The plant kingdm is a wrld, she says, with a cmpletely different apprach t the animal ne. “And we can develp new technlgies and artificial slutins, because it is s different.”
8. What leads t limited explratin f plant-like rbts?
A. The slw grwth rate f plants.
B. The lack f plant research capability.
C. The misunderstanding f plant behavir.
D. The difficulty f applying plant-like rbts.
9. Hw des FilBt grw?
A. By pressing a mtin sensr.B. By expsing itself t sunlight.
C. By pushing ut sftened plastic.D. By cntrlling utside temperature.
10. What is the purpse f this text?
A. T pint ut the value f rbtics.B. T present a newly invented rbt.
C. T call fr mre research int rbts.D. T crrect a miscnceptin abut plants.
