Frm a yung age, I cllected rle mdels. In schl, as a teenager, I tried t channel Whitney Hustn. In the wrking wrld, I paid clse attentin t ur female senir managers. By watching and imitating thers-especially wmen f clr wh lked r sunded like me-I gained cnfidence in my wn abilities.
But when I started my wn cmpany, my pl f rle mdels became smaller. Only 2.1% f risk investment ges t wmen-funded cmpanies. “Wh can I lk up t?” I wndered. “Wh can I learn frm?” I decided t create an inspiratin wall in my ffice, with phts f the rle mdels I culd see-wmen like Oprah, Michelle Obama, and Vicky, c-funder f a skincare brand. I never thught I’d meet these wmen, but their success gave me hpe.
Then ne day, a cuple f years ag, I surprised myself with a thught: what if I did reach ut t ne f my rle mdels? I feared rejectin, but my desire fr cnnectin was strnger. I chse Vicky, whse jurney had lng inspired me. I didn’t have her email address. S I tried a cld Instagram message, and she respnded the next day!
That was in 2022. We’ve spken numerus times since, and the cnversatins have been invaluable. They’re rare chances t gain guidance frm a successful wman. But here’s the mst valuable lessn I gained: when Vicky first replied t me, I wasn’t the nly ne excited. Vicky was excited t-because she’s always lking fr ways t supprt ther wmen. All my life, I’d thught f rle mdels as a ne-way relatinship: I’d gain strength frm smene strnger. But the situatin is mre than that.
I nce sent Vicky a care package frm my sunglasses cmpany. She wrte me a thank-yu nte, and texted a selfie f her and her daughter wearing my prducts. Tday, I keep that letter n my desk next t my keybard—a reminder that just as I believe in her, she believes in me. We’re all here t help each ther grw.

Imagine hpping n a schl bus and being transprted t an immersive (沉浸式) educatinal tur f the inside f the human bdy—and n, nt n a fictinal episde f The Magic Schl Bus. This is the kind f experience that Meta hpes t enable fr students, digitally, thrugh its Quest virtual reality (VR) headsets.
Bring VR int mre classrms culd enable new kinds f learning pprtunities. Fr example, it may allw drama students t feel like they’re having an immersive, real-time experience watching Shakespeare’s wrk perfrmed at the Glbe Theatre in the 17 century. New Mexic University is using the headsets t teach criminal justice students t investigate virtual crime scenes, and Mrehuse Cllege has develped a “digital twin campus” t teach students a range f subjects thrugh VR, bth thrugh a partner prgram with Meta t test educatinal applicatins f the technlgy.
But VR als creates cncerns abut digital safety and the ptential harm t humans wh are having mre digital interactins and fewer in-persn nes. Mrever, the cst f invlving VR headsets in the classrm culd be an bstacle t adptin fr the many schls already struggling with limited resurces. While cheaper than sme ther headsets n the market, Meta’s Quest 3 devices still start at $499 each. Mst imprtantly, it remains unclear just hw useful virtual reality is in helping students learn better.
“I think that VR is ne area where additinal research is necessary,” said Vincent Quan, an educatin researcher and c-executive directr f the Abdul Latif Jameel Pverty Actin Lab. “With technlgy, sure, it can have a lt f prmise, but at the same time, there can als be a lt f hype (夸张的宣传), and I think it’s imprtant t carefully evaluate these types f technlgies. Smetimes yu dn’t knw if it’s just innvative and cl versus actually impactful.”
8. Why is The Magic Schl Bus mentined in the first paragraph?
A. T intrduce the tpic f VR.B. T prmte immersive educatin.
C. T recmmend a ppular TV seriesD. T advertise a new means f transprt.
9. Hw can VR benefit students accrding t Paragraph 2?
A. By increasing their in-persn interactins.B. By satisfying diverse learning requirements.
C. By assisting them in understanding cncepts.D. By enabling learning beynd time limitatins.
10. What can be inferred frm the price f VR devices?
A. The price will affect that f similar prducts in the market.
B. The price is quite acceptable t bth teachers and students.
C. VR devices are mre cst-effective than ther learning tls.
D. The price can be a heavy burden fr financially trubled schl.
11. What des Vincent Quan suggest abut VR in educatin?
A. Technlgy will make it useful and cheap.B. Teachers can depend n it in the classrm.
C. It can benefit all students arund the wrld.D. Mre research is needed t evaluate its impact

Hébert has been carrying ut initial experiments with mice, remving small sectins f their brains and injecting slurries f embrynic cells (胚胎细胞). It’s a step tward prving whether such yuthful tissue can survive and take ver imprtant functins.
T be sure, the strategy is nt widely accepted, even amng researchers in the aging field. “On the surface it sunds cmpletely crazy, but I was surprised hw gd a case he culd make fr it,” says Matthew Schlz, CEO f aging research cmpany Oisin Bitechnlgies, wh met with Hébert this year. Schlz is still dubtful thugh. “A new brain is nt ging t be a ppular item,” he says. “The surgical element f it is ging t be very severe, n matter hw yu slice it” Nw, thugh, Hébert’s ideas appear t have gtten supprt frm the US gvernment.
