Lately, an 86. 6-metre-tall mass-timber（拼接木材） twer in Milwaukee, Wiscnsin designed by Krb+Assciates Architects, has been certified as the wrld's tallest timber building. Lcated in a neighburhd near the lakefrnt, the 25-stre y twer is made almst entirely frm timber except fr the base, elevatrs and stair shafts（竖井）.
The structure tk nly tw years t build. It has a cncrete-framed pdium（基座） at the base that is six streys tall and the 19-stre y timber twer rises frm the pdium. The cre cntaining the elevatr shaft and staircase is made f cncrete t help the building deal with wind and earthquakes, as well as fr fire safety reasns. "Our cres are cncrete, "Krb+Assciates Architects funder Jasn Krb said.
Thrntn Tmasetti assciate Alejandr Fernandez, wh wrked n the prject, said that the city required a three-hur fire rating fr the clumns, s the team wrked with the Frest Prducts Labratry t ptimize the clumns t meet this standard. "We think it was the first three-hur fire testing n clumns, " said Fernandez, adding that the flr plates had a tw-hur rating, meaning the cmpnents can burn fr tw hurs withut lsing structural integrity.
Because f requirements preventing external wd expsure and the develper's desire t capture the lake views, the utside f the structure is made almst entirely f glass and metal panelling.
Bth Krb and Fernandez agreed that many f the drivers behind the prject were ecnmic——frm the real estate perspective f the facade（建筑物正面） t the cst restrictins f the timber. Much f the wd was surced frm Austria because surcing high-quality supplies frm Nrth American manufacturers wuld have been t expensive. Ecnmic benefits were increased by labur usage f the prject. Krb estimated that the prject used abut 25 per cent f the nsite labur required fr a cncrete structure and that it was cmpleted in abut half the time.
Bth Fernandez and Krb believe that the twer will prvide further prf f cncept fr develpers wh are lking t create innvative structures frm timber. And mid-rise develpments like these that "attract peple t the urban cre"are a "gd"thing, Krb added.

The plastic value chain faces tw key challenges：cntrlling plastic waste and reducing greenhuse gas emissins. The chemical industry has a unique rle t play in addressing these challenges. Cperatin between upstream and dwnstream partners is essential t develp slutins that reduce plastic pllutin and emissins in plastic prductin. SABIC（Saudi Basic Industries Crpratin）is at the frefrnt f these effrts.
SABIC has set specific gals, including a cmmitment t achieve carbn neutrality（碳中和） by 2050. T realize this gal, the cmpany has utlined a Carbn Neutrality Radmap that fcuses n five pathways：energy efficiency；renewable energy；electrificatin；carbn capture, usage and strage（CCUS）；and green/blue hydrgen.
Recgnizing the scale f the challenges, SABIC understands that prgress cannt be made alne. The cmpany actively cperates thrugh initiatives, such as the Lw — Carbn Emitting Technlgies（LCET） initiative, where chemical cmpanies wrk tgether t accelerate the develpment f technlgy slutins fr carbn neutrality.
Partnerships are als vital in addressing plastic waste. SABIC is a funding member f the Alliance（联盟） t End Plastic Waste, an rganizatin that brings stakehlders（利益相关者） frm acrss the value chain tgether t take cllective actin n the grund. The alliance wrks twards a future where plastic prducts never end up in landfills r ceans, but instead are reused r transfrmed int new prducts. SABIC is als actively invlved in driving the transitin frm a linear t a circular carbn ecnmy. As respnsible plastic prducers, SABIC recgnizes the imprtance f ffering sustainable materials t custmers.
Althugh the chemical industry has made significant prgress, there is still mre wrk t d t achieve the gals. SABIC is already making prgress n the cmplex, lng—term effrt required and will cntinue t partner with thers t increase the slutins needed t push meaningful change.

One recent reprt fund that adults in the US check their phnes, n average, 344 times a day——nce every fur minutes——and spend almst three hurs a day n their devices in ttal. The prblem fr many f us is that ne quick phne-related task leads t a quick check f ur email r scial media feeds, and suddenly we've been sucked int endless scrlling（滚屏）.
It's a vicius circle. The mre useful ur phnes becme, the mre we use them. The mre we use them, the mre we lay neural pathways in ur brains that lead t picking up ur phnes fr whatever task is at hand——and the mre we feel an urge t check ur phne even when we dn't have t.
What we d knw is that the simple distractin f checking a phne r seeing a ntificatin can have negative cnsequences. This isn't very surprising；we knw that, in general, multitasking harms memry and perfrmance. One f the mst dangerus examples is phne use while driving.
In anther recent study, researchers asked participants t either put their phnes next t them s they were visible （like n a desk）, nearby and ut f sight （like in a bag r pcket）, r in anther rm. Participants then cmpleted a series f tasks t test their abilities t prcess and remember infrmatin, their prblem-slving, and their fcus. They were fund t perfrm far better when their phnes were in anther rm instead f nearby——whether visible, pwered n r nt. That held true even thugh mst f the participant s claimed nt t be cnsciusly（有意识地） thinking abut their devices.
The mere prximity（靠近） f a phne, it seems, cntributes t"brain drain" Our brains may be subcnsciusly hard at wrk in cntrlling the desire t check ur phnes, r cnstantly mnitring the envirnment t see if we shuld check ur phne（eg, waiting fr a ntificatin）. Either way, this diverted attentin can make ding anything else mre difficult. The nly"fix", the researchers fund, was putting the device in a different rm entirely.
13. Hw des the authr bring up the tpic f the text?
A . By ffering a piece f news. B . By sharing a magazine article. C . By describing his wn experience. D . By citing previus research findings.
14. What des the underlined wrd" vicius" in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A . Full. B . Magic. C . Tight. D . Bad.
15. What des the authr advise us t d t avid mbile phne distractin?
A . Never wait fr a ntificatin. B . Use ur phne as little as pssible. C . Stay away frm ur phne when ding things. D . Fcus n ne thing when finishing difficult things.
16. What's the best title fr the text?
A . The Prs and Cns f Using Mbile Phnes. B . Hw Have Mbile Phnes Changed Our Brains Negatively? C . The Cnsequences f Using Mbile Phnes. D . D Yu Want t Cntrl the Desire t Check Yur Mbile Phnes?

Cnflict is a nrmal part f any healthy relatinship. 17 The key is nt t fear r try t avid cnflict but t learn hw, t slve it in a healthy way.
When cnflict is mismanaged, it can cause great harm t a relatinship, but, when handled in a respectful, psitive way, 18 Whether yu're experiencing cnflict, at hme, wrk, r schl, learning skills can help yu reslve differences in a healthy way and build strnger, mre rewarding relatinships.
19 It ccurs whenever peple disagree ver their values, mtivatins, perceptins, ideas, r desires. Smetimes these differences appear trivial, but when a cnflict triggers strng feelings, a deep persnal need is ften at the cre f the prblem. These needs can range frm the need t feel safe and secure r respected and valued, t the need fr greater clseness and intimacy.
Think abut the ppsing needs f a tddler and a parent. The child's need is t explre, s venturing t the street r the cliff edge meets that need. But the parent's need is t prtect the child's safety, a heed that can nly be met by limiting the tddler's explratin. 20
The ability t successfully reslve cnflict depends n yur ability t： 21 By staying calm, yu can accurately read and interpret verbal and nnverbal cmmunicatin. Cntrl yur emtins and behavir. When yu're in cntrl f yur emtins, yu can cmmunicate yur needs withut threatening, intimidating, r punishing thers.
