I guess fr a wman t survive in a traditinal Chinese kitchen back then, yu had t be the best in smething,” she says.
Tday, Chan leads the kitchen f H Lee Fk, ne f Hng Kng's mst ppular restaurants. After spending mre than a decade wrking in fine dining restaurants in Australia and Singapre, she is ne f a few female chefs wh have risen t the tp f a high-end Chinese restaurant. That's an impressive achievement, given hw unbelievably challenging it has been fr wmen t shw in high-end Chinese kitchens.
Female chefs have lng been a minrity in prfessinal kitchens arund the wrld. But the situatin is even severer in Chinese kitchens.

Given all f these barriers, nt many wmen wuld even cnsider this male-dminated industry as an attractive career path. Thankfully, there are signs f a shift in mindset —the number f female Chinese head chefs has been rising in recent years.
“Even if it's 'a kitchen almst full f men, all everyne cares abut is fd - the cking. They dn't care if yu're a male r female. Gender shuldn't matter,” Chan says.

Despite the bad reputatin f sharks, they are crucial t the health f the marine ecsystem and can even help fight climate change
In the shallws f Shark Bay, Western Australia, seagrass is fd fr the sea cws, which can weigh as much as 500 kg and eat rughly 40 kg f seagrass a day. Sea cws are a rich surce f fd tr tiger sharks. By keeping the sea cw ppulatin cntrlled, tiger sharks here help the seagrass grw sustainably. A bming seagrass meadw stres twice as much CO2 per square mile as frests typically d n land.
But tiger shark numbers are declining. Off Australia's nrtheast cast f Queensland. tiger sharks are estimated t have fallen by at least 71 percent, largely due t verfishing. A reductin in tiger sharks means mre seagrass cnsumed by herbivres （食草动物） and less carbn stred in sea vegetatin. This raised the questin: What if they were absent frm the Shark Bay—wuld the seagrass-dminated ecsystem survive?
T find ut, researchers led by Rb Nwicki f Flrida Internatinal University, spent time in Eastern Australia, where shark numbers were lwer and sea cws ate seagrass largely undisturbed. “When uncntrlled, sea cws can rapidly destry wide areas f seagrass.” said Nwicki.
Thse findings emphasized that tiger sharks were playing an imprtant rle in preventing the reductin f seagrass in Shark Bay. If their ppulatins cntinue t decline, the resilience f carbn-rich cean ecsystems will likely decrease.
When it cmes t stimulating shark numbers, there have been mvements tward mre sustainable fishing; but a large percentage f the industry have nt changed their methds, which is a reasn why the ppulatin f many marine tp predatrs（捕食者） cntinues t decline.
Aside frm supprting sustainable fishing, Nwicki said the nly way t truly prtect marine life is t reduce ur glbal greenhuse gas emissins. “Ultimately, if we are ging t prtect ur ecsystems in the centuries t cme, we are ging t need t slve climate change while undertaking species prtectin at the same time.”
8. Why are tiger sharks vital t the marine ecsystem?
A. They feed n varius sea animals. B. They can stre large amunts f CO2.
C. They can prevent the lss f seagrass. D. They influence marine species' distributin.
9. What des the underlined wrd “resilience” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Sustainability. B. Recvery. C. Preservatin. D. Cnstructin.
10. What is the main cause f the ppulatin reductin f many tp, predatrs?
A. Climate change. B. Lack f prtectin.
C. Unsustainable fishing. D. Lss f seagrass.
11. What's the main idea f the text?
A. The number f tiger sharks is decreasing.
B. Climate change causes the lss f seagrass.
C. Envirnmental prtectin is at the tp f the agenda.
D. Tiger sharks are vital t the health f the marine ecsystem.

St Kilda is a tiny archipelage （群岛） f the Nrth Atlantic Ocean. The islands are amng the mst spectacular, but the greatest fascinatin is that, fr ver a thusand years, peple lived there and pssessed a sense f cmmunity. Cut ff frm the mainland, the islanders had a distinct way f living their lives, mainly eating the seabirds that returned t breed n the rcks.
Islatin als had a big effect upn St Kildans' attitudes and ideas. The peple saenticed themselves year in and year ut, in a cnstant battle t secure a livelihd. In such harsh cnditins, life was nly pssible because the whle cmmunity wrked tgether.
In the 19th century St Kilda was subject t pressures frm the utside wrld. Educatin, religin and turism all: attempted t thrw the St Kildans' way f life int dubt. In the early
20th century, the strength f the cmmunity became weakened as cntact with the rest f Britain increased. When disease cut their numbers, and wind and sea made it difficult t get adequate fd, the St Kildans were frced t turn t the mainland fr assistance.
In 1930, the St Kildans finally agreed t abandn their hmes. They settled n the Scttish mainland, nt realizing it meant thrwing themselves int the 20 century. As adults, they had t accept thse values mst Scts believe in. Fr instance, the islanders fund difficult t base their existence upn mney. 'They had never lived in a wrld where they bught gds and services frm each ther.
The islanders shwed themselves indifferent t the jbs they were given n the mainland. The laburs asked f them were unskilled cmpared with the spectacular skills they had nce perfrmed in rder t kill seabirds. Mrever, killing birds had nce prvided the cmmunity with fd t survive. On the mainland, hwever, the tasks they were asked t perfrm did nt prvide them immediately with what was needed t keep them fed and warm.
The histry f the St Kildans after the evacuatin （撤离）, f their inability and lack f reslutin t fit int urban sciety, makes sad reading. When they were resettled n the mainland, the St Kildans were frced t live in a sciety whse values were unacceptable and incmprehensible t the majrity f them. Fr many, the mve was a tragedy.
12. Accrding t Paragraph 3, the fllwing factrs lead t St Kildans seeking help frm utside EXCEPT
A. unbearable wind B. insufficient fd supply
C. cntact with Britain D. wrsening health
13. After the St Kildans inhabited Sctland, they
A. sn learned hw t buy gds and services frm thers
B. had truble adapting t the value f dminant sciety
C. exhibited willingness t carry ut their given jbs
D. had the pprtunity t shew their skills f killing seabirds
14. Which f the fllwing is NOT abut hw peple used t live n St Kilda?
A. The majr surce f fd was fund lcally. B. It was essential fr peple t help each ther.
C. Very few peple had visited mainland Sctland. D. Mney played an insignificant rle in life.
15. What is the passage mainly cncerned with?
A. The rle f mney in mdern cmmunities.
B. Hw a cmmunity adapted t a different frm f life.
C. The destructin f an ld-fashined cmmunity.
D. Hw a small cmmunity fight against ppsite cnditins.

Recent years have witnessed the great achievements made by ChatGPT, ERNIE bt and ther AI sftware, which bast their capability t generate texts. art wrks r even vides. Thus a discussin abut whether AI will replace humans entirely in the future becmes heated.
Opinins are divided here. The bundaries f what Al can d seem t be cnstantly expanding, leading many t believe its ptential t take ver all the jbs and rles traditinally perfrmed by humans. While thers take it that Al is just a tl created t help us slve prblems and imprve efficiency, naturally lacking the creativity, emtinal intelligence, and adaptability that are unique t human beings.
Frm my perspective. Al still has limitatins in the face f tasks that require human interactin, unlikely t cmpletely replace humans. Mrever, with Al taking ver certain tasks, it frees up humans t fcus n mre innvative and creative wrk. Accrdingly, what we shuld d nw is t equip urselves with abilities t adapt t the new chances.
