26、The Winner's Guide to Success
Do you know what makes people successful? To find out the answers, an American reporter recently visited some of the most successful people around the world.【1】
●Be responsible for yourself.
Sometimes you may want to blame others for your failure to get ahead. In fact, when you say someone or something apart from yourself is stopping you from making success, you're giving away your own power.【2】
●Write a plan.
It is very difficult to try to get what you want without a good plan. It is just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away. 【3】Without this "map", you may waste your time, money and also your energy; while with the "map", you'll enjoy the "trip" and get what you want in the shortest possible time.
● 【4】
Nothing great is easy to get. So you must be ready to work hard—even harder than you have ever done. If you are not willing to pay the price, you won't get anything valuable.
●Never give up.
【5】When you are doing something, you must tell yourself again and again: Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success, but giving up means the death of hope.
A.A good plan is like a map to you.
B.It seems to us that everyone knows this, but it is easier said than done.
C.Some people achieve success much later in life because they didn't work hard earlier.
D.You're saying, "You have more control over my life than I do."
E.Here are some keys to success that they give.
F.Someone else's opinion of you doesn't have to become your reality.
G.Be willing to pay the price.
27、There are many ecosystems that are truly suffering from degradation. The solution is that they can be restored by re-introducing several animal species. The United Nations funded a study that shows that if you introduce 20 specific large mammals you can successfully restore a lot of the planet.
Some roles that species play in the environment are critical, so the loss of any of these can harm the world. So that means that on the other hand, re-introducing a species can produce positive results. When a few wolves were re-introduced to Yellowstone Park is one of the most cited examples. There is no doubt that the re-introduced wolves did restore the ecosystem.
Dr. Carly, a scientist, along with her team, was able to identify 13 herbivores and 7 predators that if re-introduced, could help restore a lot of what we’ve destroyed in nature. One species can benefit its environment in a dramatic way, helping create more soil insects and worms.
The team compared environments from 500 years ago to conditions of modern environments to know how travel and the industrial revolution have influenced the planet. And at last they figured out that only 16% of the world still has undamaged wild mammal communities and just 6% looks similar to what it looked like pre-1500.
They suggested that a 54% expansion in territory home to undamaged mammal communities can easily be accomplished, especially in South America and northern areas of Africa. In Europe, re-introducing beaver, bison, wolf, and reindeer could really make a dramatic impact. However, just wolves and wild horses could make a difference to Asia.
“Our recommendations may not be suitable everywhere in the world — local assessments will judge if hunting pressures or the lack of adequate preys mean other issues need addressing before reintroducing them. However, our findings show there are huge areas of the world that could be suitable for large mammal restoration if other factors are managed,” said Dr. Carly.
【1】What role did the wolves play in Yellowstone Park?
A.Protecting nature from being destroyed.
B.Keeping the balance of the ecosystem.
C.Creating better soil for other animals.
D.Attracting more visits to the famous park.
【2】Why did the team compare environments in different periods?
A.To find out some suitable large mammals.
B.To find out how travel and the industrial revolution have affected the earth.
C.To summarize the influence of human’s activities.
D.To find out the nature of the undamaged environment.
【3】What animal could probably restore large parts of Asia?
A.Reindeer.
B.Bison.
C.Wolf.
D.Beaver.
【4】What is advised to do before animals are reintroduced ?
A.Make a law to ban hunting.
B.Provide sufficient food for them.
C.Solve other environmental problems.
D.Assess the potential surroundings.
28、After orbiting Earth for six months, the three crew members of China’s Shenzhou XIII mission have departed (离开) from the Tiangong space station and returned to the mother planet on Saturday morning, finishing the nation’s longest manned spaceflight.
The reentry capsule (返回舱) touched down on the Dongfeng Landing Site in the Gobi Desert at 9: 57 am. Carrying the mission crew (机组人员) , the Shenzhou XIII spacecraft undocked from the Tiangong station at 12: 44 am. It circled the Earth several times to gradually approach the mother planet.
In the last hours of their stay inside the Tiangong, the astronauts worked with ground controllers to transmit some experimental data back to Earth and sort out materials. Zhai Zhigang and his crewmates spent 183 days in an orbit about 400 kilometers above the Earth since their Shenzhou XIII spacecraft was launched on Oct 16. And they were the second inhabitants (居民) of China’s lasting space station named Tiangong. The crew has set a new record for China’s longest spaceflight, almost doubling the previous record of 92 days created by the crew in the Shenzhou XII mission.
During the Shenzhou XIII mission, the astronauts carried out two spacewalks that totaled more than 12 hours. The crew members also carried out two science lectures from the space station for Chinese students. In those lectures, which were live streamed worldwide by China Media Group, the astronauts showed viewers how they live and work inside the space station and the physical phenomena. In one experiment, Wang Yaping used a Bing Dwen Dwen toy, the popular mascot of the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games, to show how objects fly in weightless environment.
Such lectures were based on the country’s manned spaceflights and presented by the astronauts. Featuring interactive teaching, the activitities were mainly targeted at youngsters as the students on the ground were able to communicate with the three astronauts in real time during the class. The agency said the Shenzhou XIII’s space-based lessons marked the start of the Tiangong Class series, China’s first extraterrestrial (地球外的) lecture series that aims to popularize space science and inspire youngsters to pursue their “science and space dreams”.
【1】What can be learned about the Shenzhou XIII spacecraft?
A.The mission crew were the first inhabitants of Tiangong.

29、For several months, Cara has been working up the courage to ask her mother about what she saw on the Internet. Not long ago, the 11-year-old found out that her mother had been posting her photos in her blog, without her agreement, for much of her life. "There are pictures I don't like of myself. It would be an embarrassment(令人尴尬的事)if my friends see those photos online," she said. "Now I'm even worried anytime someone has a phone out around me. I'm afraid that my photos could be taken and posted somewhere."

While many kids may not yet have accounts(账户)themselves, their parents, schools, sports teams, and organizations have been building an online presence for them since their birth. According to a study from the Levin College of Law at the University of Florida, 92 percent of kids under the age of 2 already have their own life online.
"The blog posts are sure to follow the children into adulthood," says the study. "Therefore, we have to be careful about putting the children's personal information online."
