During the spring break, her 14-year old daughter, Emily Moore, took a part-time job, and42 minimum wage. But before she could spend the money, Emily had an idea. The news in Kansas City that week had been filled with stories about a police officer, Jimmy Moss, who was badly hurt in a car accident in the line of duty. He was in 43 condition. Emily and her unemployed mother had never forgotten how 44 the police had been when Taylor was robbed in the street one day. Emily decided to45 the money to Officer Moss's family. Her mom 46 agreed.

When she explained the family's 49 , the officers could hardly believe it. "With her current financial50 , we encouraged her to keep the money," the department later explained. "She51 , saying the officer's family needed it and the police needed to know they were 52 ."
By then, that feeling of support was mutual. The police set up a GoFundMe page for Taylor, whom they named "The Woman with the Heart of Gold." As of January 11, 2023, they had 53 $165,405 Even better: Officer Moss, who had a 1 percent chance of54 , is out of the hospital and 55 .

How to Organize Your Digital Files
Searching for a file on your computer is a whole lot easier than digging through a pile of papers, yet it'sfar from being a perfect system. Lately, it's been hit-or-miss for me.I hope some of these tipswill help you.
Use "resources", "in progress", "final", and "scrap" folders for projects.
There are plenty of ways to title your subfolders for projects,but one of the most intuitive(使用简便的)is to have folders for stages of your project.
The "resources" folder is for things like images, documents, and other items that are needed to completeyour project. "Final," as you might imagine, is for the project files once the project has beenapproved and is done. "Scrap" is for anything you want to save from the project that doesn't belong in the"final" folder.
It's near impossible to find a photo quickly when you have thousands of photos all named somethinglike "20211108_0978234.jpg." So for photos, I like to have a date structure and folders for key events orcategories, such as: 2021 >01 (for the month)>2021-01 Mom and Dad 50 Anniversary LA. This way, youcan either browse your photos by year and month or search for folders that include "Mom", "Dad","Anniversary", or "LA. "
Use tags.
In addition to creating a folder structure that works for you, consider tagging files. Say,for example, you want to see all of your photos for all of your holiday celebrations. You can set up a tag for"holidays." And then to narrow down the results, you can search using the tag.
A.With tags, you can connect multiple files across folders.
B.For photos, use a date structure and keywords for your folders.
C.This way,you can always know which is the final project file to grab.
D.The standards will keep files organized and make them easier on the eye.
E."In progress" is for the current working version or versions of the project.
F.To find files more efficiently, I've been rearranging my digital filing system.
G.Move your photos to a more specific folder or back them up on an external storage device.

What is the purpose of lightning? The new study published at the end of April in Science found thatlightning may play a bigger role in global climate change than was previously known by the scientificcommunity.
Many are familiar with the potentially deadly dangers posed by lightning, which is blamed for anaverage of 43 deaths in the United States each year, based on data from 1989 to 2018. Although the odds ofbeing struck are quite low-1 in 1, 222, 000 in a given year and 1 in 15, 300 in a lifetime many in theweather community have long urged people to take proper precautions to stay safe in storms. However, theresearchers recently uncovered a surprising and beneficial impact of lightning.
The study, which included contributions from nine atmospheric researchers across a dozen universities,was based on an airborne research flight conducted by a NASA DC-8 storm-chasing plane in 2012.Researchers initially thought there was a problem with the equipment on the plane, which was being used tomeasure the hydroxyl radicals(羟基自由基) in the atmosphere until they realized increases they observedcorresponded with lightning flashes. ABC News reported.
Hydroxyl radicals,described as a "chemical scavenger(清洗剂)"by Science Direct, are importantchemical compounds found in the atmosphere due to the reactive nature with other organic molecules(分子).Researchers previously understood that lightning could help to clean the atmosphere, but there was noevidence that it could generate compounds like these radicals. "No one has seen that much in the atmospherefrom natural processes, ever," Brune said. As a result, the study estimates that somewhere between 2% and16% of the oxidizing(氧化),or cleaning that happens naturally in the Earth's atmosphere, is done bylightning.
Why is this significant? The oxidation process helps to reduce chemicals like carbon monoxide andmethane in the atmosphere. These chemicals, known for being greenhouse gases, have been proven tocontribute to rising temperatures associated with climate change. Researchers say that more studies willneed to be conducted to verify the degree to which lightning contributes to the fight against global climatechange.
(1)、What do the statistics in Para 2 tell us about lightning?A、It threatens human lives. B、It can only harm people. C、It is a strange phenomenon. D、It happens quite frequently.(2)、What led to the new discovery in the text?A、The equipment failure on the storm-chasing plane. B、The lightning flashes observed by the research team. C、The airborne research conducted by NASA scientists. D、The increase of Hydroxyl radicals during lightning.(3)、How does Brune feel about the finding?A、Doubtful. B、Frustrated. C、Amazed. D、Ambiguous.(4)、What is the main idea of the text?A、Hydroxyl radicals clean the atmosphere. B、Oxidizing is a natural result of lightning. C、Lightning may help address climate change. D、Greenhouse gases contribute to rising temperature. -

15、 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Mike licked the last of the mint chocolate chip ice cream. It was almost time to leave. He jumped into the car with his parents and headed off to the Olympic-sized pool for the big swim meet
When his race came up, Mike was confident. He was strong and swift. Mike climbed out of the pool, smiling. He had just won first place, making him the fastest boy in his age group
"Congratulations, son, " his father said. His mom gave him a hug, even though he was soaking wet.
A week later it was time for another swim meet. Like before, Mike decided to enjoy his favorite ice cream flavor. Mike remembered that the last time he had won a race, he also ate mint chocolate chip ice cream first. Maybe he'd win again
He took first place again in his race. Mike was feeling pretty good. As it turned cut, Mike decided to have some mint chocolate chip ice cream before every one of the next few swim meets. He began to think of it as his lucky charm. After several months of placing in the top positions of every race he swam, Mike was feeling unbeatable. And he wouldn't admit it, but all that ice cream was adding a few pounds to his athletic swimmer's build
It didn't take long after that for Mike to start coming in second place-and then third—and then last place in his races. The lucky mint chocolate chip ice cream had lost its magic
On the day of his next swim meet, his mother sat down at the table with him. "Mike, we all love ice cream, but it's not healthy for your body to eat so much of it. Maybe it's time to quit the sweet treats for a while, especially before you go swimming. "
Mike unwillingly agreed. He went to the swim meet, and didn't perform well. His father offered to go running with him a few days a week to help him feel better and strengthen his muscles. The extra-weight soon disappeared, and Mike found himself breathing easier at swim practices. Then came the last meet of the season, and Mike wasn't sure what to expect.

For most people, death is hard to think about. We tend to avoid the subject-involuntarily, even. The philosopher. Stephen Cave offers one explanation for this avoidance in his 2012 book, Immorality. "Death, " he writes, "presents itself as both inevitable and impossible. " You can know rationally that you will die, yet struggle to understand your nonexistence. Put another way, you cannot be conscious of your own consciousnesses.
So we dismiss death form our thoughts. But this leads us to make choice in life that actually reduce our happiness. People who express more regrets tend to be those who postpone profound activities that yield meaning, such as appreciating beauty or spending more time with loved ones. When we avoid thoughts of death, we unconsciously assume that tomorrow will look a lot like today, so we can do tomorrow what we could today. But when we focus on death, that increases the stakes at play in the present, and clarifies what we should do with our time.
By forcing ourselves to think about death, our resources-use decisions change. I ask my 20-something graduate students to estimate how many Thanksgivings they realistically have left with their parents, and then to consider how they should spend those remaining occasions. This usually simulates a strong emotional reaction. But it can also alter such decisions as where they choose to live and work. This highlights that facing discomfort and thinking seriously about the impermanence of your mortal life are important for making decisions that enhance your happiness.
There are other benefits. For example, paradoxical though it may seem, considering death can encourage positive thinking, as researchers found in 2007. People prepared to think about their death tended to focus on favorable emotional information around them, and to interpret random words in a pleasanter way. You begin to think extremely clearly, and realize that you have a choice about how to see present moment—and choose the positive.
If you insist ignoring your own death, you are likely to make decisions that cause you to sleepwalk through life. You may not be dead yet, but you are not fully alive either. I you can look across that border with resolve and confidence, you will experience every day fully and deeply.
(1)、What is the main idea of paragraph 1?A、People's fear of death. B、People's escape from death. C、People's acceptance of death. D、People's struggle against death.(2)、What will happen to us if we don't focus on death?A、Enjoying a lot more happiness. B、Taking better advantage of time. C、Postponing big things until tomorrow. D、Engaging in more meaningful activities.(3)、What's the author's purpose in mentioning his graduate students?A、To argue for the changes in making big decisions B、To show doubts about facing discomfort of death C、To compare students' different attitudes to death D、To argue against the necessity of considering death(4)、What does the author suggest readers do in the passage?A、Avoid thinking about your death. B、Live a better life by ignoring death C、Step away from death and live better D、Think about your death and live better
