Teachers say there's a huge enthusiasm fr schl kids t learn the language, but as they grw up, they're encuraged t fcus n "mre useful" subjects and use English, which are believed t assist them in achieving success in their wrk. In 2016, there were 18, 610 Hawaiian speakers n the islands.
"One hundred thusand is the apprximate number f speakers needed t cnsider the language safe, " says Slmn, prfessr f Hawaiian language at University f Hawai'i at Mana. "The idea is that there are enugh peple passing it n t the next generatin, scializing their children t use the language in all dmains f life, t express all thughts and needs and desires. "
Frtunately, the kids f Pu' öhala Elementary will take the respnsibility t cntinue the wrk f the current yung adults defending the language, expanding access t ‘ölel Hawai'i in part thrugh TikTk and Instagram, and making the language a practical skill in adulthd.

A new study invlving nearly 50,000 peple frm fur cntinents ffers new insights int identifying the quantity f daily walking steps that will best imprve adults' health and lngevity(长寿), and whether the ideal number f steps differs acrss peple f different ages. The study represents an effrt t develp an evidence-based public health message abut the benefits f physical activity. The ften-repeated 10,000-step-a-day saying grew ut f a decades-ld marketing activity fr a Japanese pedmeter(计步器), with n science t back it up.
Led by physical activity prfessr Amanda Paluch, an internatinal grup f scientists cnducted an experiment amng adults aged 18 and lder. They gruped the nearly 50,000 participants int fur cmparative grups accrding t average steps per day. The lwest step grup averaged 3,500 steps; the secnd, 5,800; the third, 7,800; and the furth, 10,900 steps per day. Amng the three higher active grups, there was a 40—53% lwer risk f death, cmpared t the lwest step grup.
Mre specifically, fr adults 60 and lder, the risk f early death leveled ff at abut 6,000—8,000 steps per day, meaning that mre steps than that prvided n additinal benefit fr lngevity, while fr adults yunger than 60, abut 8, 000—10,000 steps per day.
"S, what we saw was this cntinuing reductin in risk as the number f steps increases, until it levels ff. Interestingly, the study fund n definitive assciatin with walking speed." Paluch says.
The new study supprts and expands findings frm anther study led by Paluch befre, which fund that walking at least 7,000 steps a day reduced middle-aged peple's risk f early death. "There's a lt f evidence suggesting that mving even a little mre is beneficial, particularly fr thse wh are ding very little activity." Paluch says. "Mre steps per day are better fr yur health."
8. Why did the scientists carry ut the new study? A . T knw abut peple's health cnditin. B . T explain the pedmeter's wrking principles. C . T determine the best physical activity fr peple. D . T prvide a scientific guideline n daily walking.
9. What des the underlined wrds "leveled ff" in paragraph 3 mean? A . Turned higher. B . Became stable. C . Fell sharply. D . Changed rapidly.
10. What des the experiment find? A . The ld shuld walk as much as pssible. B . Yung peple usually walk mre than the ld. C . The mst beneficial steps differ by age grups. D . Walking pace is the key t aviding early death.
11. What des Paluch advise peple ding little activity t d? A . T walk mre steps. B . T cntrl walking speed. C . T limit walking distance. D . T track the number f steps.

Despite its benefits, drinking milk int adulthd, let alne ther animals' milk, is a strange behavir in the animal kingdm. What makes it even stranger is that an estimated 68 percent f the glbal human ppulatin is actually lactse (乳糖) intlerant. Scientists are still getting t the bttm f why the practice began and cntinued. This research culd unlck new understandings f ur fd cultures and even ur DNA．

9. 000 years t mdern-day Turkey near the sea f Marmara. where milk fats have been fund n ancient pttery. Accrding t Jessica Hendy. a scientist at the University f Yrk. then milk wuld have been part f a diverse diet fr it was mixed with ther fd. Frm its rigins, the technlgy f making use f milk spread int the Caucasus and then acrss Eurpe. By the Brnze Age, peple may have been using cw's milk t feed their babies.
Fr a lng time, researchers believed that milk drinking changed as a cultural practice hand in hand with the spread f genetic mutatins (变异) that allwed peple t tlerate milk int adulthd. But ne recent finding suggests milk drinking ccurred befre these mutatins and might nt even require them. In Eurpe. peple appear t have been drinking milk fr thusands f years befre any genetic ability t drink milk became cmmn. The ancient cheese making equipment might ffer part f the slutin: Fermenting (发酵) milk int ygurt. cheese, r ther prducts reduces the amunt f lactse. In Mnglia. researchers have nt yet fund a genetic mutatin that allws peple t digest lactse, despite the majr rle f milk in that culture. S sme scientists held that there might be ther ptential factrs helping.

I am mst interested in the impact f warming temperatures n snw melting rates, and I have started studying snwmelt since 2009 in Utah and Clrad. When I skied t research sites in Utah t cllect snw fr my experiment, the muntainus landscapes were cvered in dust. 17 It's clear that 2009 was ne f the biggest years fr dust depsitin (沉积) nt snw.
18 I usually have t cver several kilmeters, carrying a 27-kilgramme pack with a shvel (铲子) t dig a snw hle, tls t cut snw and measure its density, and cntainers t cllect snw fr analyses. One year, I hit a dusty area f snw, brke my ski and sliced my leg pen.
In areas with heavy dust depsitin, such as the suthern Rcky Muntains, dust speeds up melting by ne r tw mnths. Warming air temperatures affect snw gathering, but dust builds up ver time and darkens the surface. 19

B. I went fr miles in the wilderness.
C. Ding my research is n easy task.
D. One f the gals is t develp snwmelt mdels.
