Playing vide games is nt usually an utdr activity, but gaming and nature aren’t unrelated. Sme f the
games are filled with beautiful scenes f nature, like the blue flax flwers in the fantasy game Guild Wars 2 which
were inspired by real-life plants. “We have fund vide games and nature are well cnnected,” said vide gamers
Hannah Yung and Aleks Atanasvski, wh lved nature. “Then we came up with a way t allw game enthusiasts
t grw the plants they lve in their favrite games.” The result was an fficial cllabratin between Guild Wars
and SeedSaga. “It’s the partnership using the gamers’ lve f getting rewards frm their favrite game and having
the pprtunity t grw smething in the real wrld like they wuld d in the game,” Yung said.
SeedSaga is a btanical pilt, the first f its kind, which allws the players f Guild Wars t apply fr seed
packs featuring the artistic frms frm the game. “The skills that yu have in the gaming wrld — like watering
virtual gardens — can be applied in the real wrld,” Yung said.
The first campaign was limited with nly 30 seed packages that went ut in April 2024. “Because games are
inspired by real-life plants, there are a large number f plants in the game that are exactly the same as thse in
nature,” Atanasvski said. “The applicatins pured in and mst applicants had t wait fr next time. If nly we
had made ne thusand bags f seed packages.”
“On scial media, what many peple are talking abut is nt the games themselves, like the missins they’re
ding, but sptting the landscapes and appreciating them just like they d if they are n a hike in the real wrld,”
said Yung. “The things peple talk abut are s similar t what they might see in a frest r smething really
amazing in nature. I think ur initiative is nt just a matter f games having seed packages. We want t remind
them that in nature they can have the same feeling and the surprise they get in the game.”
4. What inspired Yung and Atanasvski t put frward the initiative?
A. Their awareness f a special link. B. Their encunter with a flwer lver.
第 4页/共 13页
C. Their wrk experience in gardening. D. Their passin fr creating vide games.
5. What can be knwn abut the first campaign?
A. It was limited t tp-level games. B. There were insufficient applicants.
C. It was well received amng games. D. Real-life plants fr it were hard t find.
6. What des Yung mst prbably expect vide gamers t d?
A. Get clse t nature in the real wrld. B. Discuss their missins in the games.
C. Share seed packages with each ther. D. Avid spending time n scial media.
7. What is the best title fr the text?

With the cmpletin f the Human Genme Prject mre than 20 years ag, and the discvery f the duble
helix structure f DNA enjying its 70th birthday last year, yu might assume that we knw hw life wrks. Think
again!
Evlutin has a 4 billin-year head start n us. Hwever, several aspects f the standard picture f hw life
wrks-the idea f the genme as a blueprint, f genes as instructins fr building an rganism, f prteins as
precisely tailred mlecular machines and mre- have wildly reduced the cmplexity f life.
In the excellent bk Hw Life Wrks, Philip Ball explres the new bilgy, revealing life t be a far richer,
mre delicate affair than we have understd. Ball explains that life is a system f many levels—genes, prteins,
cells, tissues, and bdy mdules-each with its wn rules and principles, s there is n unique place t lk fr an
answer t it.
Als, Hw Life Wrks is a much mre appealing title than the verused questin f “What is life?”. We shuld
be less cncerned with what a thing is, and rather mre fcused n what a thing des. Defining a living thing
implies an unchangeable ideal type, but this will run cunter t the Darwinian principle that living things are
fur-dimensinal, ever changing in time as well as space.
But it’s an idea that is deeply rted within ur culture. Ball pints ut that we rely n metaphrs (比喻) t
explain and explre the cmplexities f life, but nne suffice. We are taught that cells are machines, thugh n
machine we have invented behaves like the simplest cell; that DNA is a cde r a blueprint, thugh it is neither;
that the brain is a cmputer, thugh n cmputer behaves like a brain at all.
Ball is a terrific writer, pumping ut bks n incredibly diverse subjects. There’s a wealth f well-researched
第 5页/共 13页
infrmatin in here, and sme details that are a bit chewy fr the lay reader. But the bk serves as an essential
intrductin n ur never-ending quest t understand life.
8. What des paragraph 2 intend t state?
A. The research f bilgy is tricky.
B. Human evlutin is a lengthy prcess.
C. Genes determine the structure f living things.
D. Cmmnly held mdels f life are versimplified.
9. What des the underlined phrase “run cunter t” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. G against. B. Refer t. C. Accunt fr. D. Cntribute t.
10. What is Ball’s attitude t using metaphrs t explain life?
A. Tlerant. B. Disapprving. C. Objective. D. Indecisive.
11. What is the purpse f the text?
A. T review a bk. B. T intrduce genetic map.
C. T hnur a writer. D. T crrect a misperceptin.
D
At tp universities, there’s a phenmenn knwn as “Stanfrd Duck Syndrme (综合征)”. Like ducks,
students appear t mve gracefully (优雅地). Hwever, beneath the surface, they’re kicking desperately t keep up.
Experts frm Stanfrd’s Health Services uncvered this trubling trend: during the day, many Stanfrd
students are seen scializing in cafés, seemingly withut any stress r the need t study. Hwever, at night, they
start studying, smetimes fr the entire night, trying t maintain the image f effrtless success. This cmes at a
high price: tiredness and anxiety are widespread. Furthermre, it leads t a cmmn miscnceptin: true geniuses
achieve success with ease, while thse wrking hard are less capable.
In an effrt t challenge this miscnceptin, researchers designed an experiment. Participants were asked t
bserve a series f clrs carefully while scientists tracked their brain activity thrughut the prcess. The
experiment was divided int tw parts: ne with easily distinguishable clrs and the ther with clrs that were
quite similar, requiring mre effrt t differentiate. As the difficulty f the task increased, there was a nticeable
increase in brain activity, particularly in areas linked t memry and abstract reasning.
The study reveals that as tasks require mre effrt, mre areas f the brain becme engaged. Grwth desn’t
cme frm talent alne but frm the cnsistent applicatin f effrt. Our brain functins like a muscle. Withut
effrt, even ur inbrn talents will fade ver time.
第 6页/共 13页
This pushes us t recnsider the underlying culture that might lead t this phenmenn. Instead f fcusing
t much n utcmes r singing high praise fr inbrn talents, we shuld emphasize the learning prcess and
cntinuus imprvement. By encuraging a culture that values effrt, we can help students realize that intelligence
is nt fixed but grws thrugh hard wrk. Such a shift wuld nt nly reduce the pressures assciated with the
“Stanfrd Duck Syndrme”, but als have a prfund impact n persnal develpment and the future f educatin.
12. What phenmenn des the “Stanfrd Duck Syndrme” prbably describe?
A. Priritizing effrt ver well-being.
B. Relieving stress thrugh scial activities.
C. Displaying graceful images t attract thers.
D. Hiding hard wrk t appear naturally gifted.
13. Hw des the experiment in paragraph 3 challenge the miscnceptin?
A. By shwing effrt fuels the brain activity.
B. By prving fcus enhances brain functin.
C. By linking clr recgnitin t intelligence.
D. By assciating careful bservatin with talent.
14. What is the authr’s main cncern abut “Stanfrd Duck Syndrme”?
A. It values the learning prcess ver utcmes.
B. It causes stress and false ideas abut success.
C. It prevents students frm recgnizing their talents.
D. It makes students priritize scializing ver studying.
15. Which f the fllwing might the authr agree with?
A. Frtune favrs thse with a clear visin.
B. Sweat is the ink that writes a masterpiece.
C. Wrk in silence and let success make the nise.
D. Keep mving frward even when n ne sees it.

When I was seven years ld, my family mved frm Mexic t America. In Mexic, I was a cheerful girl wh
lved making peple laugh with my jkes and inventing fun games t play with my friends. Hwever, when I
arrived in America, I fund it hard t fit in, and I became quieter.
We lived in a small huse with a mdest yard where we grew vegetables-my respnsibility. While I tk pride
in watching them grw, there were times when I dreamed f having a beautiful garden like my schlmate Luella’s,
with its delicate tulips (郁金香). Althugh Luella lived in the same neighbrhd as me, we barely knew each
ther.
It was after a trnad that Luella and I finally became clse friends.
The trnad struck n a Sunday afternn. The gentle breeze transfrmed int a strng wind, and thick gray
cluds filled the sky. Gradually, the trnad tk shape, starting as a thin rpe and grwing int a large black
funnel (漏斗). My entire family gathered in the bathrm, seeking shelter frm the strm. Terrified, I sat clse t
my mm, knees in my chest. After the strm had passed, ur wrries and fears were replaced by relief that we were
unharmed and that ur huse had remained undamaged.
As I stepped utside, I witnessed the extent f the damage the trnad had caused t ur neighbrhd. Acrss
the street, a tall tree had fallen, crushing Luella’s garden in frnt f her yellw huse. We hurried ver t check n
it. Frtunately, her family seemed t be away at the time, and n ne was injured. Hwever, her nce-beautiful
garden was in ruins, with the fallen tree destrying the tulips and debris (碎片) spread everywhere. I culd nly
imagine hw heartbrken they must feel seeing this.
Then my mm’s usual wrds rang in my ear, “It is mre blessed t give than t receive,” and my family
started t think abut hw we culd help.
