Dan Mancina is a skatebarder whse jaw-drpping vides get hundreds f thusands f views. Mancina als happens t be blind, and vides f him using his white cane (手杖) as he skatebards have gained admiratin frm fans arund the wrld.
“I’ve lst my visin slwly thrughut my life,” Mancina said. It wasn’t until his mid-20s that his cnditin—an eye disease started t affect his day-t-day life, stpping him frm driving and biking. The Michigan native started skating at seven, and gt int it mre seriusly at 13, saying the sprt helps him express himself. He stpped skating fr a cuple f years. This perid, the 35-year-ld said, was his “lwest pint”.
Hwever, mbility training helped him gain cnfidence. Slwly, he returned t ding what he lved. Mancina started filming shrt vides f his prgress and psting them nline and met a new grup f peple t skate with, gaining enugh cnfidence t return t the streets. “I was just actually trying it, and then realized I was still the same persn and that I culd still d all the things that I lve,” he said.
Nw, Mancina wants t create spaces where visually impaired (视力受损的) peple can enjy the sprt. “I wanted t build the first skatepark designed fr visually impaired peple, s I
started a fundatin called ‘Keep Pushing’ and have been raising mney ever since fr a few years nw,” he said. The park, set t be built in Michigan, will use adaptive methds, such as increasing the size f bstacles, t make it safe and accessible.
“T change the perceptin f the visually impaired, I started my scial media stuff. Sme peple think it’s crazy fr a blind peple t skate. It's nt that crazy in my head. I just enjy skating.

In Flrida’s Everglades, few species are mre clsely tied t the habitat’s health than an endangered bird, the snail kite. The Everglade snail kite eats just ne thing: snails, a species that relies almst entirely n a resurce usually abundant in the freshwater marshes (沼泽).
Over the last century, as much f the Everglades dried up, drughts cntributed t the snail kite’s decline, and by 2007, there were fewer than 800 remaining. But the kite has bunced back recently thanks t an extic(外来的)snail. It’s a rare case f an invasive(侵入的) species having a psitive impact.
Rbert Fletcher, a University f Flrida prfessr wh directs a snail kite mnitring prgram, said the invasive species was first sptted in 2004. Within a few years, it had expanded thrugh much f the Everglades. “And it was arund that time,” he said, “that we started t see snail kite number increase.”
N ne’s sure abut hw the extic snails were intrduced int the Everglades. They’re related t Flrida's apple snails and are cmmnly used in hme aquariums(鱼缸). The invader, the island apple snail, is larger than its Flrida cusin. It lays eggs in the thusands visible n the stalks (茎) f many f the marsh plants.
Effrts t restre Flrida's Everglades have helped the snail kite and restred native
vegetatin. It's been in the wrks fr mre than 30 years with a cst f mre than $20 billin. But prgress is increasing gradually, althugh hard t measure. In the meantime, scientists say the invasive snail may have helped pull Flrida's endangered snail kite back frm the threat f extinctin.
But Fletcher is cncerned abut the ptential impact the species will have n the Everglades ver the lng term. He said, “What we shuld be thinking abut is hw we restre native snails t get thse benefits rather than relying n this nn-native species that can have damaging impacts n the ecsystem.” The invasive snails may already have caused lsses t sme native marsh plants, indicating that truble may cme very sn.
28. What des the underlined phrase “bunced back” in paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Recvered.B. Departed.C. Emerged.D. Jumped.
29. What is a majr cause f the snail kite’s decline?
A. The disappearance f their habitat.
B. The shrtage f fd due t drughts.
C. The increasing number f ther species.
D. The intrductin f an invasive species.
30.What d we knw abut the invasive snails?
A. Their eggs are hard t spt n the stalks
B. They are smaller than native apple snails.
C. Hme aquariums are an ideal habitat fr them.
D. They increase in ppulatin arund the Everglades.
31. What cnclusin can be drawn frm the last tw paragraphs?
A. Human effrts apparently have prven t be effective.
B. The benefits f the invasive snails utweigh the harms.
C. The invasive snails pse little threat t the lcal ecsystem.
D. Restring the native ecsystem is cstly but necessary in the lng run.

Research has shwn that listening t music while shwering, taking a walk r travelling t schl culd affect yur ability t think utside the bx and cme up with artistic r creative things t d. Experts say being bred can lead t daydreaming plus the birth f new ideas.
While there is nthing wrng with listening t music, ding s when taking a shwer r ging fr a walk takes away time that culd be spent thinking abut yurself and yur life—the perfect time t let yur creative juices flw. Happiness expert Gretchen Rubin said, “Yu need this pen-searching time in rder fr new ideas t spring up. This is why peple get ideas in the shwer r in the middle f the night—it’s a perid f time when the brain creates its wn fun. It’s when I’m bred that I have big insights because my brain is pen and trying t entertain itself.”
A recent study by psychlgists shwed the same prcess at wrk. In the research, tw grups f peple were expected t cme up with prpsals. They were then asked t cmplete the task in tw backgrunds. One is in a quiet rm while the ther is with music playing. Researchers fund, cmpared t participants wh cmpleted tasks in a quiet backgrund, participants wh listened t music perfrmed less creatively.
S, is it best t thrw away the bath-time tunes? Mst peple said the research was a real md killer. One said, “Smetimes, I need the music t cver all the thughts I dn’t want t
think.” Anther cmmented, “Many peple have t much ging n in their heads. That’s why they listen t music in the shwer, by which they can actually relax.” But ther listeners said they liked having quiet time while travelling hme at the end f the day.
In any case, striking a gd balance and listening t music smetimes but being quiet at ther times culd be the best balance in ur life.
32. What d the experts find accrding t the first paragraph?
A. Keeping ur minds busy brings in new ideas.
B. Listening t music helps t bring inspiratin.
C. Taking a walk keeps us frm daydreaming.
D. Feeling bred tends t stir up ur creativity.
33. Hw des the psychlgists d the research?
A. By bserving thrugh daily life.
B. By referring t frmer reprts.
C. By carrying ut an experiment.
D. By filling up a questinnaire.
34. Hw d mst peple find the result f the research?
A. Unacceptable. B. Misleading.
C. Cnfusing.D. Cnvincing.
35. What is the best title fr the text?
A. Des yur playlist really appeal t yu?
B. Is it time t thrw away yur playlist?
C. Listening t music keeps us mentally fit
D. Being quiet is always a gd habit fr us

Why Bundaries at Wrk Are Essential
What is a bundary, yu ask? A bundary is a limit defining yu in relatin t smene r smething. 36 If yu have infrmed smene that this is yur ffice space, yur desk, r yur chair, yu have attempted t set physical bundaries.
Letting c-wrkers knw yu are nt cmfrtable shaking their hands r hugging them at a hliday party, especially with Cvid at this time, is anther example f setting a physical bundary. It is ften easier t understand a physical bundary. Emtinal r mental bundaries may be subtler (更微妙的). 37
Emtinal bundaries are related t ur feelings and hw smething r smene’s behavir affects us. Fr example, if a bss treats yu disrespectfully by yelling at yu r a clleague frequently interrupts yu in meetings, yu are likely t feel hurt, embarrassed, and perhaps angry. Understandably, by having a curageus cnversatin with bth yur bss and c-wrker abut their behavir, the impact it has n yu, and yur expectatins regarding future behavir, yu are setting healthy emtinal bundaries fr yurself at wrk.
Smetimes we set a bundary that is a cmbinatin f bth a physical and emtinal ne. 38 One example f this is being repeatedly asked t wrk late during the week/weekends r while n vacatin. Anther example is being required t see t many clients r patients t the
pint we feel tired at the end f the day and exhausted by Friday. Often, the abve wrkplace demands lead t increased stress and a high ptential fr burnut (倦怠) ver time.
Mental bundaries are related t ur beliefs, values, cultural nrms, ethics (道德), and standards. Fr example, yu value a wrkplace culture that treats emplyees and clients with respect and dignity and acts ethically. After six mnths, yu realize that cmpany leaders are repeatedly behaving in ways nt cnsistent with this. 39 Over time, this may lead t significant stress and physical symptms within.
40 Bundaries serve many functins. They help prtect us, clarify ur respnsibility, preserve ur physical and emtinal energy, and live ur values and standards. Learning the skill f bundary setting helps empwer us t priritize ur values and well-being and better manage ur stress. Identifying, setting, and maintaining bundaries are skills — valuable skills that, unfrtunately, we are ften nt taught in schl r the wrkplace.
A.Why are bundaries imprtant?
B.Hwever, they are equally, if nt mre, imprtant.
C.Therefre, we need t tell the difference between them.
D.Setting a bundary in the abve example may be quite helpful.
E.Bundaries can be physical, mental, emtinal, tangible, r intangible.
F.Yur values and ethical standards dn’t match with yur cmpany’s, which likely will lead t internal cnflict.
G.Such bundaries ften invlve being asked t d mre than we feel capable f fr an extended perid f time.

“WELCOME TO HELL, LADIES!” says Mr. Smith, the 41 f the adult ballet class. I frce a smile as he presses dwn n my stiff (僵硬的)back, attempting t be a little mre 42 .
When I was a little girl, I 43 elegantly dancing acrss the stage like the Swan Princess. With several reasns, my hpes f taking ballet lessns were killed. But every s ften, usually while watching a brilliant perfrmance f Swan Lake, thse little 44 f unfulfilled desire wuld speak up and say that I shuld take lessns befre it’s t late.
And here I am — mre than 50 years — finally 45 fr it.
I’m an abslute 46 , but 30 years lder than the rest f the participants in the adult class. We are practising “prt de bras”, a ballet term fr the 47 f the arms. I flutter (挥动) my arms, awakening my inner 48 . “Yur hands, they lk like claws f a chicken,” Mr. Smith 49 , “N ne wants t lk at that. It’s ugly.” He pints his finger at varius bdy parts while 50 giving feedback, “Head up, neck lng, chest prud, stmach in, back straight, bttm tight.” Every time he lks at me, I instantly knw that I’ve missed smething. S I take nte f every previus adjustment t gain his apprval.
After a few sessins, I find myself lking frward t taking ballet classes with a mix f anxiety and excitement. Between classes, I 51 my psture in every windw I pass. I’m 52 . My hands are less claw-like and my psture a little straighter. And I cnstantly imagine I’m n stage, hlding the audience entirely in my 53 .
Learning ballet as an adult has been a much bigger 54 than I expected, but I’m glad that I tk actin and that ballet still 55 t me as it did when I was a little girl.

It was the day f the big crss-cuntry run. Students frm seven different primary schls in and arund the small twn were warming up and walking the rute(路线)thrugh thick evergreen frest.
I lked arund and finally sptted David, wh was standing by himself ff t the side by a fence. He was small fr ten years ld. His usual big tthy smile was absent tday. I walked ver and asked him why he wasn’t with the ther children. He hesitated and then said he had decided nt t run.
What was wrng? He had wrked s hard fr this event!
I quickly searched the crwd fr the schl’s cach and asked him what had happened. “I was afraid that kids frm ther schls wuld laugh at him,” he explained uncmfrtably. “I gave him the chice t run r nt, and let him decide.”
I bit back my frustratin(懊恼). I knew the cach meant well—he thught he was ding the right thing. After making sure that David culd run if he wanted, I turned t find him cming twards me, his small bdy rcking frm side t side as he swung his feet frward.
David had a brain disease which prevented him frm walking r running like ther children, but at schl his classmates thught f him as a regular kid. He always participated t the best f his ability in whatever they were ding. That was why nne f the children thught it unusual that David had decided t jin the crss-cuntry team. It just tk him lnger—that’s all. David had nt missed a single practice, and althugh he always finished his run lng after the ther children, he did always finish. As a special educatin teacher at the schl, I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was prud f his strng determinatin.
