23、The softball season for the Lady Bulldogs of Garfield Senior High School in Los Angeles got off to an awful start. The team was just coming back to school full time after COVID, and their season was flooded with injuries and discouraged players. They hadn’t won a single game that season.
Everything that could go wrong that season did. Their home field was even under construction, so they had nowhere to practice. While other teams were training on, their own softball diamonds, the Lady Bulldogs were borrowing space from other school teams.

24、When it comes to our favorite adventures, there’s nothing like a trip centered around wildlife.
Witness East Africa’s Great Migration
One of the most popular trips is undoubtedly witnessing East Africa’s Great Migration. This is an incredible opportunity to see almost two million wildebeest (牛羚), along with zebras and gazelles, begin their journey north from the Serengeti, where they choose to give birth to their young, to the Masai Mara in search of water and better grasslands. The journey is also filled with predators, such as crocodiles and lions, making for dramatic and emotional encounter.

Alaska has more than three thousand rivers and three billion lakes, and is also home to multiple whale species during the summer months. Visitors can choose to see them on small whale-watching boat tours and on personal sea kayaks.
Dive with marine life in the Great Barrier Reef

Unfortunately, the reef has been extremely affected by coral bleaching (漂白), resulting in the loss of reportedly half of its coral. Still, the Great Barrier Reef remains breathtaking, and eco-friendly tours are available.

25、Biodiversity is a concept that's commonly referenced, yet regularly misunderstood. The complex_______ not only refers to the unbelievable variety of life on Earth, but to how everything from genes to entire ecosystems interact to make the planet habitable. The bad news: science shows that biodiversity is _______ worldwide at a faster rate than at any time in human history. That’s obviously devastating for everything in nature--including us.
“If biodiversity disappears, so do people,” says Dr. Stephen Woodley, field ecologist and bio-diversity expert with the International Union for Conservation of Nature. “We are part of the _______ and we do not exist without it.”
Preventing such a catastrophe, says Woodley, begins with understanding why biodiversity is declining, and then taking action to _______ course.
“The two greatest _______ of biodiversity loss are habitat loss, primarily on land, and overexploitation, primarily in the ocean,” Woodley says. He explains that we can solve these problems by permanently _______ more lands and oceans and managing them for their conservation values.
That's the mission of the global Campaign for Nature, a partnership of the Wyss Foundation and the National Geographic Society. Instead of simply protecting 30 percent of the Earth, the_______ also encourages nations, in full partnership with local communities, to focus on the right 30 percent. Those areas, says Woodley, _______ the most important biodiversity, such as endangered species and ecosystems and rare species and ecosystems.
The campaign also recognizes the importance of_______ local rights. Local peoples manage or hold tenure(保有权) over lands that support about 80 percent of the world's biodiversity, making it ________ for these communities to be full partners in developing and implementing strategies.
________, protecting the health of key biodiversity areas is vital for tackling climate change, says National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Dr. Enric Sala. Pairing the international Paris Agreement to combat climate change, Sala's paper asserts, “would ________catastrophic(灾难性的) climate change, conserve species, and secure essential ecosystem services.”
“Biodiversity is stability,” says Sala. “Trees, wetlands, grasslands, peat bogs(泥炭沼泽), salt marshes(盐沼), healthy ocean ecosystems, mangroves(红树林), and plants ________ much of the carbon pollution humans put into the atmosphere. Yet, right now, less than half of the planet is in its natural state, which isn't enough.” Bottom line: Nature needs us to act-now. “Moving to Mars is not a(n) ________,” Sala adds. “The only conditions for our life and for the prosperity of human society are here on Earth ...we are ________ protecting it.”
