Rock Climbing is also about the people you meet, as much as the climbing itself. The gym is the perfect place for climbers to meet and share experiences. There are lessons seven days a week on the smaller wall and when someone is ready, they are let loose(放松)on the main wall, but always under observation(观察). The gym has a great safety record and plans to keep it that way.

The gym is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, but lessons are between 12 to 6 p. m. You can get a student package for 700 pounds a month and there are also yearly deals, but daily or weekly deals are not provided.

Probably one of the best things the gym offers is weekend trips for many experienced climbers. You can get out and try a real rock face at the cost of 150 pounds. We arrange hotel accommodation(住宿) for overnight and it's free of charge. It's a lot of fun. It's a great way to meet people, strengthen your body and become part of the rock climbing community.

My mum, on the other hand, wore a simple dress and old shoes. Her clothes looked worn out compared to the others. As we walked past store windows. I couldn't help but notice the difference, I saw young girls in bright dresses and boys in tidy shirts. They looked so modern and confident.

Feeling a bit out of place, I tried to pull my mum towards less busy areas. I didn't want anyone to notice us or, more specifically, notice her. It wasn't because I wasn't proud of my mum. I just felt she deserved (值得) better.

As we walked around, we entered a store with beautiful clothes. The fabrics (面料) felt soft, and the designs were fashionable. My mun's eyes lit up when she saw a lovely sweater. "This would look great on you," she said with a smile.

I checked the price and was shocked, It was much too expensive for us. I knew my mum worked hard to make ends meet. Every penny was made use of in our life. Yet, here she was, willing to spend on a sweater for me.

Looking at her, I realised something. My mum might not have the beautiful clothes or the latest accessories (配饰), but she had a heart of gold. She always put me first, even if it meant giving up her own wants.

Suddenly, I felt a wave of warmth. I hugged her and said to her softly, "Mum, I don't need the sweater. I just need you." She smiled, "I know, dear. But it's nice to have dreams sometimes, right?" We left the store, hand in hand, feeling wealthier than ever.

When you enter into your new school, the first thing is that you need to know the escape (逃跑) map well.

You may find the escape map in every classroom. Please go over it and remember the closest exit (出口) and right way to the exit. What you should do:

*If you see a fire or smell smoke, don't wait. Every room in the school has got a fire alarm (报警器). Use something hard, like a shoe, to break the glass and start the alarm system.

*If you hear the fire alarm, move quickly. Don't stop to get your textbooks and notes. Leave your things in the classroom.

*Don't run! Walk quickly to the playground. Remember to follow the arrows (箭头) on the fire escape map.

*Don't go home! Wait for your teacher to call your name and be sure that you are safe. Be careful. Don't go back into the school buildings until a teacher has told you that it is safe.

Mike, a pediatric cardiologist (小儿心脏病专家), lost a bunch of keys while cycling to the park to meet a friend. The keys were attached to a keychain with a crystal (水晶) photo of his daughter, which held great emotional value for him.

The crystal photo was more than just a decoration; it held his love for his daughter, whose smiling, lovely face always gave him strength, especially during challenging moments at work

When Mike realized the keys were missing, he felt anxious. He thought they might have fallen out of his backpack during the ride. Determined to find them, he retraced his steps and searched almost all the road. However, he still couldn't find them. Then he came up to check with the park service center, but several days later, there were no replies.

As the last effort, Mike turned to social media. He shared a heartfelt post in an online neighborhood group, describing his situation. The post was reshared by several community groups, quickly spreading the word for everyone to keep an eye out for the missing keys.

At the same time, a man named Chris found the keys near a tree in the park. Chris found them when he was on the way back home after caring for his little son at hospital, who had been suffering from serious heart disease. When he saw the photo of the little girl on the keychain, he thought they must be the keys of a parent who loved his or her daughter so much. Wanting to give them back to the owner, however, Chris didn't have any identifying information (识别信息). He considered leaving them on a bench on the roadside, but he was afraid that they might get lost again. Thinking twice, he finally decided to take the keys home, hoping to find the owner in other ways.

From its busy capital of Changsha to the mountainous city of Zhangjiajie, Hunan Province in Central China is (crowd) with lots of foreign tourists.

At the (three) Hunan Tourism Development Conference held in Hengyang in September, provincial officials made sure (spare) no effort in promoting (推动) Hunan's rich cultural and tourism resources to global visitors.

According to a report released by a leading travel company, as of August 25,number of inbound tourism (入境旅游) orders to Hunan increased by 137 percent year-on-year. Over the first six months of 2024, the province welcomed 1.4 million inbound(visitor), making $364 million, 6.68 times more money than the same time last year.

The popularity of inbound tourism in Hunan is (close) tied to supportive policies. The province took some measures, making the 72-hour and the 144-hour transit visa-free policy (过境免签政策), to promote the cultural and (create) tourism industry. The recovery and expansion of international flight routes also made a difference to the development of Hunan's inbound tourism. In February, to enlarge the influence of the capital city's culture and tourism resources, an eight-day cultural tourism promotion event (host) in Osaka, Japan, and Seoul, ROK.

On June l, the 2024 Hunan International Cultural Tourism Festival and Trip Group Global Partner Hunan (Zhangjiajie) Inbound Tourism Conference welcomed more than 1,000foreign guests came from more than 50 countries and regions.

Grow your social network. If you feel you don't have enough people in your life to whom you're connected, you can take active steps to make more relationships to bring more people in your life.Go to parties, community gatherings, and local events where you can meet new people. You never know who you might meet or what chances might appear from these interactions.

Strengthen existing relationships.What if you have enough people in your life but you don't feel connected enough to them or you still have let your friendships go? It is always the fact that people who take small actions, day to day, to stay in touch and to connect with people are the ones who keep their relationships strong.

Accept change. People change all the time, and it means relationships are changing, too.The question is, whether we can notice how we're changing and how the other person is changing and accept that change and maybe even celebrate and support that change rather than push against it.

Good communication with others helps you better build and maintain relationships with them, having a positive effect on you by increasing your sense of happiness. Try to listen actively, express yourself clearly, and learn to give and receive useful feedback. All those practices will help you connect with a diverse range of people and enrich your social interactions.
​​​​​​​

A. Improve your social skills.

B. You need to learn to get used to them.

C. Respect each other's personal feedback.

D. This can be achieved by attending social events.

E. Then what can you do to level up your social life?

F. One important way to improve your social life is quality.

G. Encourage the other person to do the same in different ways.

Martonelli played a HITar, a guitar with AI sensors (传感器) added to it. The sensors can read his movements to create drum-like sounds that accompany(伴随) the guitar music. These sounds cannot be made with a normal guitar. Generative AI grew in popularity last year thanks to a robotic language system. Generative AI can create new sounds, words for music or entire songs on its own. But artists usually use simpler AI to add to their sounds.

Musicians worry that the technology could go too far. Amy plays in an English rock group. She said she is not in support of the music that includes artificially made voices of actual artists. She said she felt the same way about using dead artists' voices in songs. In November, the rock group released a song. It is considered the group's last song and includesa musician's voice, who died in 1980. His sounds were taken from an old recording and recreated with AI.

A famous singer said, "I think AI can have its place in the music production chain." But he added, "This is only possible if the technology is guided in the right way and if there are rules in place to make sure that musicians keep some amount of control."

The researchers first estimated (估算) what the world's economic growth would be without climate change. They then applied those values to the damage to economies if climate change continues at its present pace. There will still be economic growth, but it will be 19 percent lower in most places once the damage of climate change is taken into consideration.

Most at the research group have been centering on extreme weather events such as heat waves, floods, typhoons, hurricanes and other large storms. However, the effects are still mainly driven by average warming or overall temperature increases. The average world temperature last year was a record. That number was 1.35 ℃ above the average during pre-industrial times, before modern technology.

In the US, the southeastern and southwestern states such as New Mexico and Arizona are estimated to suffer the largest economic effects. In Europe, Spain and Italy are likely to feel the effects more than countries like Denmark and Germany. Areas that are usually cold for most of the year — Canada, Russia, Norway, Finland, and Sweden — will have good results from warming.

Experts note that the world's poorest countries are also the least prepared to adapt to climate change. Those countries are least responsible for the change, but they will agonize 60 percent more income loss than wealthy nations.

When I was a little child, I joined George and his mom in going to Erin's house, bringing food and daily supplies with us. Obviously, Erin's family faced economic trouble and could hardly afford food. George and I took several bags of things to the door, rang the bell and ran off. Erin still doesn't know to this day who did that. Since then, I've always given whatever I could afford to help the people in need.

You never knew what my act would lead the people in need to do. A few years ago, I came across a homeless man begging for money to get bread at a bus stop. I could have ignored him, but I felt sorry for him and pulled out my wallet. I only had $ 20 in my hand. I was just a college student. However, I handed him the money, and he promised me that he'd find a job to make a living. When I got on the bus, he smiled at me and said,"I'll remember you forever!"I also smiled. It totally made my day, and I would also never forget his face. Later, I lent my phone to one boy to call his family and managed to help his worried mother find a job online.

Though an act of kindness toward anyone can seem like no big deal to me and cost me nearly nothing, I believe in the effects it can have on other people. Hopefully, they still have faith in humanity. It's the kind of interaction that is more valuable than money. Since doing good is within our power, let's help out more.

No matter what the year has thrown at you, a November trip to a tropical (热带的)island is a great experience. Follow along for four of the best islands to visit in November.

Curacao Island

Curacao Island is surrounded by colorful fish and coral (珊瑚) gardens, making it one of the best diving destinations in the Caribbean. This island packs a lot more than that. The island earned recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site (联合国教科文组织世界遗产)for its historic colored buildings. Besides, November also brings calm waters and clear air, which means excellent visibility for divers.

Sanibel Island

Sanibel Island in November sees the end of the rainy season and fewer crowds. While the weather is still perfect for the beach in Sanibel Island, things cool off at night. So you won't be sweating every minute of the day. Cooler weather opens up opportunities for bike rides around the island. Besides, You could easily find a comfortable house on the seafront without breaking the bank.

Molokai

While November might mark the start of its wet season, lower prices and fewer tourists make travelling to Molokai during this period still attractive. Molokai is often called Hawaii's forgotten island, no big resorts, just untouched landscapes. Besides colorful plants in every direction, Molokai also experiences an increase in cultural events: Thanksgiving festivities and the Hawaii International Film Festival spring to mind.

Raja Ampat

Raja Ampat is almost as untouched as the day it was created. Each island is a forest-covered mountain hiding secret lakes at their base. So why hasn't the place become hot popular in the world of tropical tourism? Well, it's far (and pricey) to get to, and accommodation costs a pretty penny. Apart from that, the area is a protected national park.

Learning and remembering new knowledge or information completely takes time, but don't you wish there is an easier way to remember it?.

Read it out loud

Hearing yourself repeat the information helps you remember it easier..Go slowly through the text so you don't skip over anything important. Try pointing at the words as you read them to help you to remember even better. The more you read the information loud, the easier you can remember it.

Quiz(测验) yourself so you see what topics you still need to review. After you've read through or practiced something, test your memory by reciting everything you just learned. If you need to remember keywords or phrases, try writing down their definitions without looking them up.

Take handwritten notes

You're more likely to remember something you've written down. If you're in a class, listen carefully and write down the keywords and phrases. If you're learning something online or from a book, rewrite what you read.

Teach the information to someone else

Explaining something helps you keep the main points. Have one of your friends listen to you as you try to teach them the subject you've been learning..Since you have to actively recall the information you're teaching， it's beneficial for you to learn and remember the information.

A. Try self-testing

B. Change your practice technique

C. You can find many practice tests online

D. Read aloud if you're studying from a book or website

E. After rewriting it, you will be able to memorize it better

F. Ask them if they understand or if they need a better explanation

G. The following good and effective methods help you pick it up quicker

Jonathan Rogers is a robotics expert at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta. When it comes to a farm environment, he realized robots would face many problems. "Many robots tend to get twisted(弯曲的) together or get stuck,"he says. What's more, he notes, "It's very hard to leave them out for long periods without a human helping them."

What if the robot could move above the crops? Jonathan Rogers says, "The sloths(树懒)move from tree branch to tree branch to avoid having to walk around the forest floor. "Then his team set out to design a robot that could swing hand to hand along wires hung above the field. He named their invention Tarzan after the jungle-swinging character in a movie.

Tarzan is not the first swinging robot. Mark Spong, a robotics researcher at the University of Texas at Dallas notes that some teams have built robots that do gymnastics or copy mammals. But he says he admires Tarzan for its using swinging movement to save energy and the idea of building a wire structure to move around above crops.

Rogers first predicted that Tarzan could help farmers monitor crops with sensors (传感器) and cameras. But he also said future robots might take water to a particularly thirsty plant or fertilize one that needs nutritional support. And adding a third "hand"could allow such a robot to harvest fruits and vegetables. Finally the robot could move off the farm and into the city, helping deal with the traffic and security.
