Susan Tsang's journey to becoming a field biologist is as unconventional as it is inspiring. Growing up in New York City, Susan spent four hours daily on commute (通勤)to school, leaving little time for outdoor exploration. It made her an unlikely candidate for a career in field biology.
Susan's enthusiasm for the natural world was fueled during a visit to the AmericanMuseum of Natural History. The dinosaur fossils (化石) awakened her desire to explore nature, which eventually led her to pursue a PhD program focused on bat biology.
Susan's first field exploration was to Indonesia, with the task of catching wild bats. With her advisor unable to help, Susan teamed up with Sigit, an experienced local researcher. They excitedly set up nets for trapping bats near a waterfall. While preparing their equipment, they discovered a bamboo structure leaking fresh water. Thinking it might be useful for their base camp, they tried to fix it, only to have water erupt everywhere, soaking (浸 湿) them completely. Unfortunately,a storm was approaching. Realizing their day was lost, they walked back to base camp. They talked and laughed, forming a deep bond.
This adventure provided Susan with not only practical skills but also an invaluable lesson about adaptability and teamwork. It enhanced the significance of practical experience. She recognized that true understanding comes from directly observing the subjects of study — views that cannot be gained only from textbooks. Over the years, whenever faced with doubts regarding her capability, she remembers what her advisor told her about the experience, “The first day you came pletely wet, yet genuinely happy. The next day you went right back out. That's when I knew this is where you truly belonged.”
Susan Tsang's journey illustrates the transformative power of experience and perseverance. From a city girl to a committed field biologist, Susan's success highlights the importance of pursuing one's enthusiasm, no matter the odds.

Once widely distributed worldwide, peregrine falcon (游隼) numbers began to decline after World War II due to substances to kill harmful insects, which weakened the birds'eggshells (蛋壳). They were placed on the endangered species list in 1970. InYosemite, the last known pair were seen in 1941.
The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned most uses of chemicals in1974. In 1978, four climbers discovered an active pereprine falcon nest on Yosemite's ElCapitan, marking its return to the area after decades. They reported their find to conservationists. who came up with an ambitious plan, enlisting climbers’ help to collect eggshell samples for test ng.
The eggs were delicate, so researchers decided to hatch them in a laboratory, then return the chicks to the nest. Rock climbers helped with this, too, but much to the chagrin of the protective peregrine falcon parents: As the climbers carefully removed eggs or replaced chicks, the falcons dive-bombed them — one bird even attacked a climber and struck his backpack.
For decades, climbers and the park service have teamed up to help protect the bird. The park temporarily closes the climbing routes during egg-laying seasons. Buffer zones are created to prevent helicopters(直升机) from getting too close.
Peregrine falcons were removed from the endangered species list in 1999. As many as40,000 individuals may now be flying freely in North America, and their numbers are on the rise. “Peregnnes are at the top of the food chain. ” says Frank Dean, president of YosemiteConservancy. “So to have them bounce back is a sign of the health of the entire Yosemite ecosystem. ”
Rock climbers and peregrine falcons could easily be in conflict, since rock climbing can disturb nesting falcons and is listed as a potential threat to the species. But instead, they have formed an unlikely partnership without which peregrine falcons might still be struggling to gain a foothold in Yosemite. The birds’ recovery, is a rare success story of humans prioritizing the needs of other species above their own.
28. What led to the decline of peregrine falcons
A. Climbing business. B. Chemical use.
C. Commercial hunting. D. Climate change.
29. What does the underlined word“chagrin” mean in paragraph 3
A. Displeasure. B. Disappointment. C. Delight. D. Relief.
30. Which can best describe the recovery work
A. Tiring and inadequate. B. Demanding and fruitless.
C. Risky but productive. D. Conventional but incredible.
31. What message does the text deliver
A. Human prioritizing wildlife's need is rare.
B. People's behaviors disturb natural balance.
C. Unique teamwork adds richness to ecosystem.
D. Extinct birds’ comeback is a natural evolution.
D
A new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS)challenges long-held assumptions about human cooperation. Traditionally, cooperation has been studied through repeated interactions that allow individuals to build trust and win-win relationships, adjusting their behavior based on others’ actions. However, many real-world situations, such as volunteering or donating to crisis relief, involve one-time decisions with no anticipated future interactions. This study, co-authored by Dr. Natalie Struwe, Prof. EstherBlanco alongside Prof. James Walker, explored how individuals cooperate when they only have one opportunity to do so within a social group.
Their experiments involving over 2,000 participants examined the benefits from cooperation in public good provision. Despite increased benefits, there was no significant change in how much individuals were willing to cooperate. As participants did not expect others to cooperate more when benefits increased, they were unlikely to increase their own cooperation efforts — even when the benefits of cooperation doubled.
“Our findings highlight a gap in our understanding of cooperative behavior in single-encounter settings,” said Dr. Struwe. “Self-interest conflicts with social interests. With higher benefits from cooperation, however, this conflict is much lower and we would expect to see much higher cooperation rates. But, we were surprised to find that even significantly increased benefits did not lead to greater cooperation efforts.”
“We couldn't believe the results ourselves at first, double-checked the data several times, and repeated the study with several populations,” said Professor Esther Blanco. “In the end, we gathered nearly 2,000 data points. conducting experiments online with the general population from the UK. No matter what we did, the results remained consistent. Participants were willing to invest about 40% of their available money to boost group earnings, regardless of the setting. ”
“Cooperation in one-time situations is more common than we think.” explainedProf. Walker. The study's results have important implications for encouraging cooperation in urgent, one-time scenarios like disaster relief and highlight the need for a deeper understanding of cooperative behavior,a defining characteristic of humanity.
32. What did the previous study center on
A. Cooperation shown in crises.
B. Interaction boosted by bonds.
C. Interaction repeated among strangers.
D. Cooperation based on constant interactions.
33. What factor may affect participants' willingness to cooperate
A. Expectations of others. B. Higher rewards.
C. Joint efforts of the team. D. Interest conflicts.
34. What is Blanco's finding about cooperation levels
A. They increased regularly. B. They varied greatly.
C. They were relatively stable. D. They were unpredictable.
35. What would be the best title for the article
A. The Impact of Trust on Cooperation Decisions
B. Reevaluating Benefits in Cooperative Behavior
C. Human Interaction: Beyond Long-Term Firm Cooperation
D. Rethinking Cooperation: Insights from One-Time Decisions

There was a time in my life when I enjoyed violin very much. But when it came to performing in front of other people, I always became nervous and got discouraged frequently with my inability to play as well as I could when practieing alone. The fear of making mistakes made my hand tremble, overshadowing the joy I found in music. I worried that a single wrong note would break the connection I hoped to create with my listeners.
Determined to overcome this fear, I joined my high school orchestra (管弦乐队) as a freshmen. At our first class, the conductor announced that we would have the opportunity to perform in San Antonio, and everyone was excited about the trip.
A few weeks before the actual trip, one of my friends sent me a video of Joshua Bell,a
well-known violinist, performing at a subway station. I was particularly fascinated by one piece that he played for the passersby. And he earned $32. 17 for that piece.
I was deeply moved by the emotional richness and complexity of the piece, and I felt a strong desire to express its beauty. I imagined myself performing it confidently, just likeBell. I started practicing it like crazy. However, the difficulty of the piece and the constant repetitions and adjustments wore me out to the point where I; almost considered just giving up. But it was a worthi-chāllenge and Ithought I could-master it, with my unique style.
Several weeks later, our-orchestra, group were staying at a hotel in San Antonio. As we were hanging out, we found a beautiful courtyard just in front of the hotel. The friend who sent me the video and I were talking about how Joshua Bell's performance at the subway station went viral on the social media.

Suddenly, he suggested that -play for the hotel eustomers in the courtyard. I tried not to mind the mistakes halfway through the performance as before.

W: In the UK, changes are coming to how junk food is advertised. Starting in October2025, online ads for unhealthy food and drinks will be banned. On TV, these ads will only be allowed to be played after 9 p. m. [18] This new rule aims to address childhood weight issues. Statistics from the 2022-2023 school year show that over 20percent of children aged 4 to 5 years old in England were overweight.
This number increases in older children starting middle school, with more than 36percent being too fat.
The UK government thinks that seeing fewer ads for junk food will help kids eat better. Usman Ahmad Mushtaq, the UK's deputy health minister, has said that less advertising could lead to healthier eating habits among children.
However, not everyone agrees with this plan. Some people think that banning ads doesn't address the real reasons kids want junk food. [19] Dina Rabie from theLondon School of Economics suggested that children's experiences with junk food influence their choices more than ads do. She believes teaching kids about healthy eating is more important.
