That year, her autbigraphy (自传), Iris Apfel: Accidental Icn, was published in 2018.
In a 2015 NPR stry, Apfel tld a reprter Ina Jaffe that she tk pride in having inspired peple ver the years. She remembered meeting ne wman wh claimed that Apfe l had changed her life.

“She became an inspiratin fr s many peple,” jewelry designer Alexis Bittar said in a statement. “Thrugh living her life n her wn terms, it messaged t wmen that they dn’t need t hide in the shadws as they age; they actually can cntinue t glw and get better at what they d and lk like.”

The Great Barrier Reef is the wrld’s lngest reef, measuring 2,027 km. Running parallel(平行的) t the cast f Queensland, Australia, the reef is hme t many species f fish.
The Great Barrier Reef tk thusands f years t frm, and has existed fr thusands f years, but in just a few shrt decades we humans have made remarkable prgress in killing it. The balance f this ecsystem is being destryed. Pisnus castal pllutin, verfishing and unsustainable turism all cntribute t the damage dne. Hwever, the biggest threat f all is climate change, which causes cral bleaching (珊瑚白化) and ther prblems.
Cral bleaching is a prcess that causes cral t turn white in clr when expsed t certain stressrs, such as changes in temperature r light. As water temperatures rise due t climate change, the algae (海藻) living inside cral becmes pisnus and is expelled frm the cral, causing it t lse its clr and a majr surce f fd. Nt nly d the algae prduce cral’s clr, they als prvide 90%f the cral’s energy. Thus, withut the algae, mst crals will die.
Unfrtunately, cral bleaching events are nw ccurring at an alarming rate. Mass cral bleaching events in the Great Barrier Reef have been recrded in 1998, 2002, 2006, 2016, 2017 and 2020, and they are nw expected t becme an annual ccurrence. The Great Barrier Reef is believed t have lst ver 50% f its crals since 1995 and as glbal warming cntinues, this number will cntinue t increase rapidly.
In 2015, the Australian gvernment frmed a plan fr the prtectin and preservatin f the Great Barrier Ree f until 2050. While the plan cntains many great aims t imprve water quality and restre the reef, there are n measures t deal with the rt cause f the issue-climate change.
Slving the mst imprtant prblem f ur generatin will require many slutins, such as supprting the use f renewable energy, keeping fssil fuels in the grund, prtecting frests, reducing plastic prductin and preventing unsustainable business practices.
Repairing the damage dne t the Great Barrier Reef—and ther ecsystems arund the wrld—will be n easy jb, but we believe that individuals, businesses and gvernments will make a change and then there will be hpe in the future.
28. What can we knw abut the Great Barrier Reef?
A. It is a lifeless cral reef structure.
B. It has the mst preserved ecsystem.
C. It is a threat t the survival f human.
D. It has been affected by varius factrs.
29. What des the underlined wrd “expelled” in paragraph 3 prbably mean?
A. Taken ut. B. Given away. C. Driven ut. D. Washed away.
30. What can be inferred frm paragraph 4?
A. Cral reefs are experiencing grwth.
B. The lss f crals is expected t decrease.
C. Cral bleaching takes place mre frequently.
D. The gvernment has taken steps t stp cral bleaching.
31. What is the authr’s attitude t the future f the Great Barrier Reef?
A. Psitive. B. Negative. C. Dubtful. D. Indifferent.

New research frm Barclays Life Skills fund that 70% f the British nticed language changes at wrk ver the last five years. Gen Z, peple aged 18-24, appears t be leading the change. “Our research shws that the next generatin are clearly ging t make their mark n the wrkfrce when it cmes t hw we cmmunicate,” said Kirstie Mackey, head f Barclays Life Skills.
“Yurs truly”, “Yurs sincerely”, and “T whm it may cncern” were the three phrases mstly likely t disappear frm the wrkplace within the next ten years. “Cmpliments” and “Respects” at the end f an email were the furth and fifth mst likely t g extinct. While these phrases are behind the times in the eyes f the British, “thanks!” and “thanks s much” were fund t be increasingly ppular, with 46% and 50% f respndents (受访者) saying these were friendly respnses.
Other mre infrmal phrases, hwever, were cnsidered t be mre divisive—simply ging with the shrt frm fr thank yu, “ta!” was cnsidered ver-familiar by 29% f respndents, but friendly by 23%. And “hiya” was viewed as friendly by 42%, but as ver-familiar by 26%.
The survey shws 49% f Gen Z ften use immediate messaging platfrms at wrk, but just 27%f thse aged ver 55 d s. That age grup still prefers email, saying this methd feels mre prfessinal.
Language expert Laura Bailey says the change tward a mre infrmal way ges hand in hand with the appearance f wrkplace messaging platfrms. “The generatinal differences can be explained by brader changes in what different age grups were familiar with,” Bailey said.
While traditinal letter-writing styles translate int any frm f written cmmunicatin fr lder wrkers, yunger nes have been influenced by changing language styles that spread quickly thrugh scial media, Bailey added.
Barclays Life Skills’ Mackey said that given ffice-prper language was changing, there were a few things t remember. Aviding ver-familiarity with c-wrkers and making sure yur tne(语气) is cnsidered as friendly were tw f them, she said. Anther imprtant cnsideratin was whether a shrt message r email wuld be enugh t express what yu want t say, and thinking abut which chice the email receiver wuld favr, Mackey suggested.
32. What did the new research find abut Gen Z?
A. They prefer frmal language in the wrkplace.
B. They shw less interest in new style f cmmunicatin.
C. They place higher imprtance n direct cmmunicatin.
D. They drive the changes in cmmunicatin styles at wrk.
33. What d the British think f phrases like “Yurs sincerely” and “Respects”?
A. They’re extinct. B. They’re friendly.
C. They’re ver-familiar. D. They’re ld-fashined.
34. What des Bailey say abut immediate messaging platfrms?
A. They may replace emails sn. B. They make ffice language infrmal.
C. They are mre cnvenient than emails. D. They are destrying the English language.
35. Which f the fllwing advice may Mackey give t peple at the wrkplace?

With the pressure f exams, assignments (作业), cllege applicatins, athletics, and scial situatins, high schl students tday need t learn hw t manage stress mre than any generatin befre. 36
Put self-care first
As high schl students, yu’re at the age where yu’re grwing, and yur brains are finishing develping, which means yu need t get mre sleep than yu used t.

Think psitively
Instead f lsing yur mind by assuming the wrst, try picturing the best pssible utcme. Rather than tell yurself “I can’t d this” r “I dn’t have enugh time”, repeat ver and ver in yur mind “I can d this” and “I have plenty f time” until yu believe it. 38 And yu’ll ntice yurself getting creative t make things happen.
Manage yur time
39 Rather than have an endless t-d list that yu’re cnstantly crssing ff, learn the art f time blcking —assigning a certain amunt f time t each task.

Lighten up and laugh a little
Even when yu d yur day-t-day activities, dn’t take things t seriusly-laugh a little. Laughter can deal with stress as well as exercise can. It’s anther healthy escape. 40 Fr example, yu can watch yur favrite mvies r cartns, and read sme funny bks r magazines. Mst imprtantly, yu shuld be able t laugh at yurself even when things dn’t g yur way.
A. Stay rganized and schedule yur time wisely.
B. Here are sme ideas that can help yu deal with high schl.
C. There are things yu can d t prmte a light-hearted nature.
D. The mre yu believe these thughts, the true r they will becme.
E. Make sure yu are paying attentin t yur verall physical health.
F. Humr is a pwerful stress reliever that’s cmparable t physical exercise.

Taking fd with fingers 56 (be) riginally a cmmn way f eating fr humans, but then East Asia and Western Eurpe develped different tableware (餐具) t meet scial and cultural etiquette (礼节). Why did the Chinese invent and use chpsticks instead f 57 (knife) and frks like the Westerners?
