On a cld mrning in May, I received a fascinating email frm a high schl friend. inviting me t a 10-day all-female surfing adventure in Prtugal. The ffer was irresistible, and I instantly knew my answer was yes.
The trip seemed simple enugh. Ten wmen, ranging frm 30 t 45 years ld, all strangers, will gather n the Prtuguese cast t embrace the challenge f surfing the Atlantic waves.
As a travel enthusiast, I quickly sught permissin frm my bss fr this nce-in-a- lifetime jurney.
Thrugh my 33 years, I’ve bserved a cmmn adult tendency: we ften limit urselves t refining skills we already pssess. There’s a certain pride in imprving ur expertise, becming increasingly knwledgeable in ur chsen fields, yet unintentinally, this fcus ften leaves ther skills undevelped and leads t neglecting ther areas f ptential grwth.
Tw days later, I arrived in Ericeira, a charming surf twn, where I met my surfing grup. Despite ur different persnalities and backgrunds, we were all united in a persistent desire t challenge urselves, learn, tackle and grw.
The shres at Ericeira, where the beginners learn t surf, are shallw and cvered with slippery rcks. They make fr sfter waves but are difficult t navigate (驾驭).
Guided by ur amazing caches, tgether, we faced the waves. Smetimes, it pured with rain, and the waves crashed arund us, but we were still ut there. And with every slip and fall, wrds f encuragement filled the air.
Hnestly, I prbably spent mst f my days frzen t the bne, but that didn’t matter because a new level f genuine jy and persnal achievement had been unlcked.
Learning a new skill taught me the humbleness that can cme frm ding badly at smething new, and the pride that develps when yu finally manage t grasp smething yu’ve been wrking n.
While surfing might nt be my calling, trying it ut inspired me t take mre risks in life, t step utside f my cmfrt zne and t never stp believing in myself. Yu never knw what yu’re capable f if yu dn’t g ut there and try.
41. What mtivated the authr t jin the surf trip t Prtugal?

B. The need t recnnect with a high schl friend.
C. The chance t undertake wrk duties in Prtugal.
D. The desire t embrace a challenge and learn a new skill.

A. It narrws ne’s abilities.B. It is essential fr career success.
C. It disrupts ne’s wrk-life balance.D. It develps creativity and explratin.
43. Which f the fllwing wrds best describe the authr’s surfing experience?

Since 2001, rbtic tls have revlutinized the practice f surgery. They have greatly reduced the stress and physical demands nrmally placed n surgens and have made certain prcedures pssible.
One example is "keyhle surgery", r minimally invasive (微创) surgery, which nrmally requires surgens t stand at awkward angles and make difficult mvements with their hands t make a cut inside the patient. But in June 2022, surgen James Ansell used 3D glasses and tw jysticks (操纵杆) t cntrl fur rbtic arms t perfrm a prcedure t remve a cancerus tumr (肿瘤). "My clleague said . that this feels like cheating, " Ansell said t The Guardian.
Anther area f surgery that has had majr technlgical breakthrughs in recent years is telesurgery. Telesurgery, r remte surgery, is the use f technlgy that allws a surgen t perfrm a prcedure n a patient nt in the same physical lcatin.
Nrmally, telesurgery relies n a wired cnnectin due t cncerns f harming the patient if a wireless cnnectin were t drp during surgery, but China made several advancements in wireless telesurgery based n 5G technlgy.
China achieved the first 5G-based remte peratin in March 2019 invlving a brain surgery prcedure between a surgen in Sanya and a patient in Beijing, a distance ttaling nearly 3, 000 kilmeters, reprted CGTN. Mre recently, a team f surgens successfully cmpleted remte micrn-level eye surgery n rabbits lcated in a different city, reprted China Daily. The rabbits were at the Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhu, Guangdng prvince, whereas the surgical team wh perated n them via a 5G rbt were at the Hainan Eye Hspital in Haiku, Hainan prvince.
Lking t the future, peple hpe that remte surgery culd becme cmmnplace t help heal injured sldiers n the battlefield while keeping surgens at a safe distance. Sme even believe that rbtic systems, cmbined with AI, culd ne day surpass human surgens. In 2022, engineers at Jhns Hpkins University in the US used their Smart Tissue Autnmus Rbt (STAR) t suture (缝合)the ends f a severed intestine (断肠) in fur pigs, shwing that certain prcedures can be dne autnmusly by rbts.
But, given current technlgical limitatins and the high csts f these rbts which can cst millins f dllars, the cmplete rbt takever f surgery may still be a while ff.
46. What des the "keyhle surgery" example intend t shw?
A. The cmplexity f rbtic surgery.
B. The challenges in using rbtic tls.
C. The prgress enabled by rbtic tls.
D. The need fr advanced 3D technlgy.
47. What significant achievement did China make in the field f telesurgery?
A. Achieving remte surgery using a wired cnnectin.
B. Cmpleting remte eye surgery n humans successfully.
C. Cnducting the first 5G-based remte peratin n rabbits.
D. Perfrming the first wireless brain surgery with 5G technlgy.
48. What can be inferred abut rbts in the medical field frm the passage?
A. They have nt yet been in use.
B. They are currently in high demand.
C. They have surpassed human capabilities.
D. Their develpment still has a lng way t g.
49. What prevents the widespread adptin f rbtic surgery systems?
A. Unavailability f 5G technlgy.
B. Resistance frm medical institutins.
C. Technlgical limitatins and high csts.
D. Lack f skilled surgens t perate them.
50. What is the main idea f the passage?
A. The benefits f remte surgery.

If yu give up the effrt simply because yu’ve run int difficulty, yu’re nt nly giving yurself a reasn t call yurself a failure, yu’re als depriving (剥夺) yurself f the pprtunity t learn.

This ability t vercme difficulties desn’t cme abut autmatically, yet it is a talent yu can fster. Indeed, it may seem like a lsing plan, especially if yu dn’t see results right away. Instead f lsing hpe, keep n ging.
Have yu ever disappinted yurself despite yur effrts when yu’ve encuntered challenges in adapting t changing circumstances? Suppse yu haven’t been able t figure ut a way arund them r culdn’t determine a wrkable apprach. Is this a terrible thing? Des it mean yu’re certain t frever be at the end f the line when it cmes t accmplishments? It’s nt like that. What it des indicate, hwever, is that yu may yet keep sme unfrgiving thughts abut yur wn abilities. Yu may, fr example, nt trust yur instincts (本能) r yu might nt believe yu’re capable enugh f taking a calculated risk.
51. We can infer frm the first paragraph that ______.
A. running int difficulty is a valid reasn t stp trying

A
Our university prvides an extensive range f curses fr undergraduates and graduate students, including BA and PhD prgrams, as well as the pprtunity t pursue a minr in creative writing. Our curriculum ffers a wide variety f educatinal ptins t suit diverse academic interests and career gals.
 Writing the musical bk
Study and create the dramatic text f musical theater. The curse starts with a grunding in the basics f text writing by studying utstanding examples f bk writing, frm Arthur Laurent’s Gypsy t Brian Yrkey's Pulitzer-winning Next T Nrmal. Students write a series f shrt scenes (5-10 pages) t be read alud and critiqued (评判) in class, with the ultimate gal f cmpleting an riginal r adapted bk fr a ne-act musical (30-60 pages).
 Intrductin t creative writing
Learning t write creatively is like learning t sing, in that the writer is being her wn instrument. The writer’s specific sensibility and especial cmpetencies determine the range f excellence that the writer can cmfrtably perate in.
This curse will fcus n three genres: petry, creative nn-fictin, and fictin. Mre particularly, the curse will fcus n the snnet, the prfile, and the shrt stry. Each sectin will feed int the next: the stanza (诗节) preparing us fr the paragraph, and the interview leading int third persn pint-f-view.

Tw days later, I arrived in Ericeira, a charming surf twn, where I met my surfing grup. Despite ur different persnalities and backgrunds, we were all united in a persistent desire t challenge urselves, learn, tackle and grw.
The shres at Ericeira, where the beginners learn t surf, are shallw and cvered with slippery rcks. They make fr sfter waves but are difficult t navigate (驾驭).
Guided by ur amazing caches, tgether, we faced the waves. Smetimes, it pured with rain, and the waves crashed arund us, but we were still ut there. And with every slip and fall, wrds f encuragement filled the air.
Hnestly, I prbably spent mst f my days frzen t the bne, but that didn’t matter because a new level f genuine jy and persnal achievement had been unlcked.
Learning a new skill taught me the humbleness that can cme frm ding badly at smething new, and the pride that develps when yu finally manage t grasp smething yu’ve been wrking n.
While surfing might nt be my calling, trying it ut inspired me t take mre risks in life, t step utside f my cmfrt zne and t never stp believing in myself. Yu never knw what yu’re capable f if yu dn’t g ut there and try.

Since 2001, rbtic tls have revlutinized the practice f surgery. They have greatly reduced the stress and physical demands nrmally placed n surgens and have made certain prcedures pssible.
One example is "keyhle surgery", r minimally invasive (微创) surgery, which nrmally requires surgens t stand at awkward angles and make difficult mvements with their hands t make a cut inside the patient. But in June 2022, surgen James Ansell used 3D glasses and tw jysticks (操纵杆) t cntrl fur rbtic arms t perfrm a prcedure t remve a cancerus tumr (肿瘤). "My clleague said . that this feels like cheating, " Ansell said t The Guardian.
Anther area f surgery that has had majr technlgical breakthrughs in recent years is telesurgery. Telesurgery, r remte surgery, is the use f technlgy that allws a surgen t perfrm a prcedure n a patient nt in the same physical lcatin.
Nrmally, telesurgery relies n a wired cnnectin due t cncerns f harming the patient if a wireless cnnectin were t drp during surgery, but China made several advancements in wireless telesurgery based n 5G technlgy.
China achieved the first 5G-based remte peratin in March 2019 invlving a brain surgery prcedure between a surgen in Sanya and a patient in Beijing, a distance ttaling nearly 3, 000 kilmeters, reprted CGTN.

Sme even believe that rbtic systems, cmbined with AI, culd ne day surpass human surgens. In 2022, engineers at Jhns Hpkins University in the US used their Smart Tissue Autnmus Rbt (STAR) t suture (缝合)the ends f a severed intestine (断肠) in fur pigs, shwing that certain prcedures can be dne autnmusly by rbts.
But, given current technlgical limitatins and the high csts f these rbts which can cst millins f dllars, the cmplete rbt takever f surgery may still be a while ff.
