It was a cld May mrning when I received an email frm an ld friend inviting me t jin a 10-day all-girls surf trip. I knew I had t say yes. The trip seemed simple enugh. 10 wmen aged 30 t 45, all cmplete strangers, were t meet n the cast f Prtugal t try smething new: surfing in the Atlantic Ocean. I have always lved traveling, s I eagerly sent an email t my bss asking fr time ff t make the trip.
If there’s ne thing I’ve learned ver my past 33 years, it’s that adults typically spend their days mastering the things they’ve dne befre. It seems like we pride urselves n becming experts in whatever field we’ve fallen int, knwing mre abut less. Nw, in thery, this is a great strategy, as it allws yu t becme really gd at ne particular thing, but it als kind f ends up leaving sme skills lacking.
I met my new surfing cmpanins n the grass f the htel lawn in a small surf twn called Ericeira. Despite ur different persnalities and backgrunds, we were all united in a strng 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 ride.
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 humility (谦虚) 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 lifelng passin, trying it ut inspired me t take mre risks in life. Yu never knw what yu’re capable f if yu dn’t g ut there and try.
24. What inspired the authr t jin the surf trip?
A. Her lve fr seashre surfing.B. Her desire t make new friends.
C. Her need t take a break frm wrk.D. Her passin fr explring smething new.
25. What des the authr think f adults’ fcusing n mastering ne field?
A. It hurts ne’s pride.B. It narrws ne’s ptential.
C. It prmtes ne’s career success.D. It bradens ne’s view f the wrld.
26. Which wrds can best describe the authr’s surfing experience?
A. Relaxing but dangerus.B. Tugh and uninteresting.
C. Challenging but rewarding.D. Surprising and unfrgettable.
27. What can be inferred abut the authr?
A. She used t lack cnfidence in herself.
B. She determined t becme an expert surfer.
C. She discvered her lifelng passin after the trip.
D. She was mre willing t try new experiences in life.
C
Yu hate me. Yu dn’t even knw me and yu hate me. Befre we’ve even spken, yu hate me. At least that’s hw it feels n my end f the call as a female cllectins fficer at a call center.
I dread the mment when I have t lg n t ur phne system first thing in the mrning because I never knw wh is ging t be n the ther end f that call.
Smetimes it’s an easy task. The caller is pleasant and has accepted persnal respnsibility fr their debts, and we get thrugh the phne call with ease. Then there are the nes wh call in lking fr a fight, r lking fr smene t blame. Thrugh the luck f the phne system, that persn is me.
I’ve had peple wh shut at me, call me hrrible names, accuse me persnally f taking their mney and threaten me. Why? I think it’s because I am invisible. I think I wuld be treated with the same level f disrespect if we were face t face. Frtunately fr me, I have had years f experience in custmer service, s I’m fairly rich in nt letting the negative encunters bther me.
The biggest and mst effective skill when it cmes t the jb is empathy (同感). I can appreciate the situatin which the caller is in because I’ve been there. That’s why I’m gd at my jb—I understand what yu’re ging thrugh, and I’m here t help.
Sme days thugh, n matter hw much I try t leave the stress behind when I hang up the phne, it stays with me. I may d sme deep breathing, g fr a quick walk r simply stick my head utside fr a burst f fresh air. I d this s I dn’t carry that negativity n t my next call. That next call may be a persn having the wrst day f their life, but I dn’t want t ever be the ne wh makes it wrse. We are all humans just trying t get by in life, which makes yu and me equal. S please, the next time we talk, remember that.
28. What des the underlined wrd “dread” in paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Enjy.B. Fear.C. Expect.D. Avid.
29. Why des the authr think sme callers treat her badly?
A. They get angry t easily.B. They blame her fr their debts.
C. They d nt see her as a real persn.D. They accuse her f taking their mney.
30. Why des the authr think she is gd at her jb?
A. She can ffer callers best advice.B. She is always respected by callers.
C. She can put herself in thers’ shes.D. She isn’t easily influenced by negativity.
31. What is the authr’s main purpse in writing this text?
A. T call fr understanding f her jb.B. T explain why she is gd at her jb.
C. T intrduce what she is respnsible fr.D. T cmplain abut her being treated badly.

The curtain wuld stp the flating rubbish and then push it tward the shre. Once there, a cnveyr run by a slar-pwered battery wuld carry the waste t a dustbin.
In her backyard pl, Perry used an air cmpressr (压缩机) t send air thrugh a pipe full f hles t create a stream f bubbles. She experimented with different amunts f pressure t make sure there wuld be enugh bubbles t frm a full curtain. “Fr the bubble system t actually wrk and cllect rubbish,” she explained t Science News fr Students, “I have t knw hw much pressure the air cmpressr is suppsed t push ut.”
After she tested her system fr cllecting rubbish, Perry fund that it wrked better than expected. Next, she plans t wrk ut hw t use the pwer f the river t run the air cmpressr.

We all want t knw what happiness means and try t find ways t help make ur life better. Happiness—yu knw it when yu see it, but it’s hard t define.

38 . If yu have a gd sense f well-being, it’s easier t maintain gd habits: exercising, eating a balanced diet and getting enugh sleep.
39 , and they d nt prvide hard evidence f cause and effect. But sme researchers believe that psitive mental states d have a direct effect n the bdy, perhaps by reducing damaging physical prcesses. Fr instance, they fund that ptimism is assciated with lwer levels f inflammatin (炎症).
If what yu mean by happiness is specifically “enjyment f life”, there’s newer evidence t supprt that, t. A study in the Canadian Medical Assciatin Jurnal fund that peple aged 60 and ver wh said they enjyed life less were mre likely t develp disability ver an 8-year perid. 40 . This study des nt prve that physical prblems are caused by less enjyment f life, but suggests a relatinship.
A. But whatever happiness really is
B. It might take mre wrk if yur md is lw
C. Fr nw these studies can nly shw assciatins
D. That refers t the persn, and the situatin he r she is in
E. Being able t travel arund was als related t enjyment f life
F. T manage ur emtins is imprtant fr bth ur bdy and mind
G. It’s nt as simple as “yu must be happy t prevent heart attacks”, thugh
