________ .I can take your order over the phone.

During my final year of college, I shared a small dorm room with my classmate Kim. I was never a tidy person — my side of the room always looked like a disaster area, covered with books, shirts, and single socks. Kim, on the other hand, was extremely organized. She labeled each of her drawers and even color-coded her class schedule. She arranged her pens by color and folded her sweaters according to the season; everything had its own spot. Our contrasting habits often made us irritate (惹恼) each other.

One evening in the middle of October, things reached a breaking point. After evening self-study, I casually kicked off my basketball shoes. One of them accidentally slid under Kim's bed. When she found it, her face turned bright red with anger. She picked up the shoe and threw it violently toward my side. It hit my desk lamp, knocking it over. The lamp fell to the floor, and the light bulb broke into pieces all over the pile of T-shirts I had intended to fold. I jumped up, shouting at her for being so disrespectful. She shouted back, complaining about my constant mess. We both rushed toward the door, each determined to be the first to slam (砰地关上) it shut.

We might not have come back that night if the phone hadn't rung just then. I sat on my bed, still angry. Kim picked up the phone. From her brief, unsteady responses, I could tell something was wrong. After she hung up, she crawled (匍匐) into her bed, pulled the covers over herself, and began to cry. The room suddenly fell into a heavy silence, filled with a new kind of unease.

Yang Chen-Ning: A Physics Giant

Nobel laureate and towering figure in physics, Yang Chen-Ning, passed away in Beijing at the age of 103. Tsinghua University, his long-time academic home, announced the news, honoring him "immortal" in an official obituary (讣告).

Born in 1922, Yang's academic path was anything but (convention). His most celebrated achievement came in 1957 when he and Tsung-Dao Lee were awarded the Nobel Prize for their work on parity non-conservation, discovery overturned a fundamental concept in physics. Furthermore, the Yang-Mills theory, (develop) with Robert Mills, is now recognized as a cornerstone of the Standard Model.

Beyond his scientific contributions, Yang was a pivotal figure in (bridge) China and the global scientific community. After returning for landmark visit in 1971, he consistently urged that more overseas scholars (follow) his example, earning him (recognize) as a pioneer in facilitating academic exchanges.

In his later years, Yang devoted himself (whole) to education and research at Tsinghua. His passing marks the conclusion of a century-long life. The university has proposed (establish) a museum in his honor. Yang's story continues to inspire future generations of scientists worldwide.

Like many children, I found comfort in1 — the joy that comes from ordinary moments2 themselves. Repetition builds a pattern that quietly3 our comfort zones. Perhaps that's why, while others struggle to recall their earliest years, I remember mine so4 — because the foundation of my childhood was messed up by a dramatic shift.

My early years were5 between two completely different parts of the world: the familiar calm of the United States and the chaos of the Philippines. My San Francisco memories are6 joys: sidewalk pigeons, ice cream, and seafood dinners with my family. Energetic and loud, I got in trouble at school for talking too much but never7 that enthusiasm.

At six, I moved to the Philippines,8 by dusty roads, no hot water and frequent power cuts. I was9 and felt "different" from locals, but I gradually10: went to school, learned the language and tried cheap street food. A candlelit night during a power failure changed me — neighbors11; I made close friends and saw inconvenience become warm12.

After four years, we returned to California, where everything felt both13 and unreal — I carried "two childhoods" inside. Those years taught me abundance and shortage coexist, and14 "less" brings more. Now, I no longer fear change — all because that early15 led me to value connection over routine.

The study, conducted by Davis, Locker, and Williams, recruited 215 undergraduates, mostly women, who completed a battery of questionnaires measuring their attitudes toward celebrities, materialistic values, and narcissistic tendencies. Participants also answered newly created questions that assessed how similar they felt to their favorite celebrity in terms of personality, appearance, or lifestyle.

Celebrity worship was assessed with the Celebrity Attitude Scale (量表). Materialism was measured by examining how much value people place on owning things, how important possessions are to their identity, and whether they believe material goods make them happier. Narcissism was measured in two forms: grandiose narcissism (characterized by confidence, entitlement, and dominance) and vulnerable narcissism (marked by insecurity, sensitivity to criticism, and a preoccupation with self-image).

The results showed a consistent relationship between celebrity worship and materialism. People who scored higher on celebrity worship also tended to place greater importance on money, status, and possessions. When it came to narcissism, only the vulnerable type, people with higher levels of emotional insecurity and self-focus, were more likely to feel strongly connected to celebrities. Most importantly, perceived similarity — whether in appearance, behavior, or personality — stood out as one of the strongest predictors of celebrity worship.

The researchers concluded, "celebrity worship is a complex construct, but perceived similarity with a favorite celebrity and vulnerable narcissism may be fruitful avenues for future research." Still, an important question remains: do people idolize celebrities because they already feel similar to them, or do they start to see themselves as similar after forming an emotional attachment?

We brought Comet home that day. He soon fell ill and grew alarmingly weak — his ribs stuck out, his eyes swelled, and his fur dulled. He became so fragile that I feared touching him, though he clearly needed care.

Some years later, I went home one afternoon after having had an emotional breakdown. My whole life was upside down. I felt hollow, dead, an empty shell of a person. I had no idea what pieces were even worth picking up again.

I found Comet curled up in a corner that afternoon. He'd been asleep, but he lifted his head and looked at me when I came in. I reached a hand toward him. He nuzzled it, immediately burst into a deep, loud purr, and gave me a perfectly content cat grin. I moved my hand down to scratch his back and sides, and he stretched luxuriously, giving me looks of absolute adoration.

At that point, it hit me: this cat loved me. The cat I didn't want, the cat I couldn't bear to take care of when his life depended on it, loved me. And he would always love me. No matter what was going on in my life, Comet would still look up from a nap when I entered the room, would still love to be touched by me.

I believe love issteadfast. I believe that real love, whether it comes from your families, or a shelter cat, is offered determinedly and unconditionally. Love is what enables us to pick up the pieces of our broken lives and go on.

As we placed rocks representing2 moments onto a growing tower, the stones became smaller, showing how even small hurts leave lasting3. We added tiny rocks for support to keep the tower steady, demonstrating that even the smallest acts of care can help provide4 during difficult times.

In the most touching moment of this lesson, my daughter quietly5 the rock tower we had built together. With a gentle6, the tower fell. "No matter how we arrange our pain, we can choose to let it7," she said softly.

After the tower fell, my daughter shared a simple8. "Why care about all the bad things that have happened? They don't9," she said, her words cutting through the silence.

Then, with a smile, she10 me a new rock and asked, "What's the best thing that ever happened to you?"

From there, we began building a new tower with11, more stable stones. Unlike the first one, it didn't need any extra12. It stood firm, quietly showing how focusing on the good can bring a stronger, more balanced13.

The final lesson on healing is clear: Focus on the positives and let go of the negatives; what we focus on14 our strength and peace as we move forward, guiding our journey toward15.

Keep it real. The human eye is very good at spotting the difference between a "social smile"，where just the mouth muscles are working, and a "real smile", which reaches the eyes. If you force a smile for the photo, it risks making you look not genuine.

Get the eyeballing right. A straight gaze looks aggressive, while gazing down at the camera seems commanding and gazing up small and weak. Whichever option you choose, it's best to avoid extremes.

Design your body language. The wider your body stretches, the more relaxed you look. Think of a king looking down thoughtfully from his throne. If you're making a gesture, or the wind is blowing your hair, you look lively and playful—that's great as long as it's real. Again, people are good at detecting insincerity.

Avoid using selfies, which often come out looking either vain or self-conscious. There are lots of studios offering shots—and videos—that look attractive and natural. Talk to the photographer to make sure he/she puts you at ease, because that's how you want to look on the site. Make the trip as fun and loving as possible—when there's someone you love behind the camera, you'll show an affectionate look unconsciously, and people are more likely to think, "I want that person to look at me like that！"

A. Find your photographer.

B. Be creative in your photography.

C. Looking slightly at an angle is often the friendliest.

D. You will discover a lot about yourself through your photo.

E. Have your photo taken when you are really enjoying yourself.

F. Similarly，the stiller you are，the more formal and confident you seem.

G. For a cheaper option，ask a close friend to go somewhere nice with you and snap away.

I went on to work with Sauria for more years and he set me up for success in science. From the start, Sauria showed a level of trust in my experimental skills that I did not always think I deserved. Even when I used 10,000 times more of an expensive reagent (试剂) than I should have, Sauria didn't roll his eyes. Instead, he guided me through how the reagent works, making it a teachable moment. He also told me stories of his own mistakes, helping me gain lessons from the situation and do better.

After a few months in the lab, Sauria and I started a project together that required us to write a computer program. That was something I had experience in, and it felt great to teach him. Over the years, he's always been open to a two-way exchange of information, which has led us to develop many successful projects. We even published a paper together — just the two of us. With these results, my confidence increased gradually during the process.

Looking back, I'm thankful to meet the mentor who drilled into me a desire to learn and gave me freedom to contribute my own ideas. I hope all mentors have their own inner excitement about new knowledge and skills and pass it on to others, because undergraduate researchers aren't just an extra pair of hands in the lab — we're also future scientists who need direction and encouragement.
