Beijing will speed up work to protect and make use of cultural relics in its core functional areas. The city aims to promote public access more heritage (遗产) sites along the Beijing Central Axis (轴), was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2024.

According to the site's office for cultural heritage (apply) and protection, Beijing will take advantage of its unique world heritage resources (enhance) its role as an international exchange center, developing the Central Axis into a space for international events.

Authorities plan to intensify efforts to preserve and display history and culture of the Beijing Central Axis. They intend to promote relevant literary and artistic creation, launch more tailored tourist (route), and enhance urban renewal projects in surrounding areas.

Stretching 7.8 kilometers from Yongding Gate in the south to the Drum and Bell Towers in the north, the Beijing Central Axis was constructed (base) on ancient architectural philosophies to create an ideal layout for a capital city. The Central Axis (date) back to the Yuan Dynasty, while its (long) was extended in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Following its inclusion on the world heritage list, visits to scenic areas along the Central Axis have increased (significant). Cultural and historical sites remain the cornerstone of Beijing's cultural tourism consumption, with the Beijing Central Axis emerging as a must-visit destination for both domestic and international tourists.

Wicker's love for nature led him to5 the idea of adding cicadas to his diet. He was motivated by the global6 of eating cicadas. He7 on social media to find interested diners, and the response was so8 that he had to stop9 attendees due to the great interest.

For dinner, Wicker10 a menu filled with insect delicacies, presented as hors d'oeuvres (开胃菜). The menu included innovative dishes such as pigs in a blanket with cicada heads and bacon-wrapped cicadas.

The11 from his friends were a mix of curiosity and fear. While some were eager to try the12 dishes, others were more13. Wicker's experiment not only provided a unique dining experience but also offered a new view on the14 between humans and the natural world. It encourages people to15 their comfort zones of food and consider insects as a sustainable and nutritious food source.

A student's working memory processes visual and verbal (口头的) information. Too many posters, regulations, or information sources can overload a student's working memory, making it difficult to focus and process information.

The average preschool is overloaded with labels, lists, and rules, which can decrease children's ability to focus and learn. Decorations are sometimes mistaken for quality. Experts point out that reading and writing performances are particularly affected by levels of stimulation, while math benefits from student-centered and personalized classroom designs. Involving students in designing their learning space can give them a sense of ownership and pride.

The color of the classroom is another critical factor. Red and orange can make students feel nervous, while blue and green are calming. Younger children may respond well to bright colors like yellow, but older students benefit from light shades of blue and green. The International Association of Color Consultants North America emphasizes the importance of appropriate color design for creating conducive (有利的) learning environments and promoting health. Such settings are likely to cause students to become uninterested in learning.

Therefore, teachers should be mindful of the impacts of visual stimuli on their students and work to minimize distractions for better academic performance.

A. It distracts students and negatively impacts their academic performance.

B. Classrooms often become text and picture-rich from early education levels.

C. Teachers should consider featuring student works to promote student worth.

D. Alternatively, colorless and poorly lit classrooms are often considered boring.

E. Classroom environments are intended to stimulate enthusiasm and participation.

F. Overstimulation in the environment increases competition for a student's attention.

G. A combination of bright and light colors benefits academic performance and health.

A study led by Federico Rosson of the University of California includes orangutans, chimpanzees, bonobos, and gorillas in zoos. They carried out a video-based study and identified social interactions that contain a mix of playful and annoying elements. They focused on characteristics such as one-sided provocation (挑衅), surprise, looking at the target's face, and repetition of the behavior.

Despite living in different social structures and environments, all four species of great apes tease one another in similar ways. A teaser might grab another's hand or foot to stop their activity. Sometimes apes hid under objects when teasing, reaching out a hand suddenly to pull someone's hair. Targets tended to ignore teasers or try to gently get them away. Sometimes they responded positively with play, or teasing of their own. Other times they just got up and left.

While doing playful teasing, the teaser has to predict the target's response and adjust their behavior based on how the target is likely to respond. Learning to predict how others will respond is a critical skill for highly social animals.

The study of playful teasing may not be limited to apes. "We suspect that other highly social animals such as parrots, dolphins, elephants, whales, and dogs, may also engage in this behavior," said co-researcher, Isabelle Laumer. To gather more data, researchers have surveyed zookeepers and are collecting stories of animal teasing from around the world.

Scientists from Brigham Young University analyzed 148 studies involving over 300,000 participants and found that satisfying social lives are as beneficial for longevity(长寿)as quitting smoking and may even be more crucial than exercise or losing weight. Social connections can influence health through buffering, where support from others helps us adapt emotionally to challenges, reducing stress-caused hormones that weaken the immune(有免疫力)system.

Rebeca, a professor at Harvard University, adds something to this understanding by pointing out the impact of our beliefs about aging on healthy longevity. Her studies show that old people with positive views of aging are much better able to run daily routines. They're more likely to recover from a disabling injury. Her research also suggests that positive attitudes towards aging offer protection against cognitive(认知的)decline.

Rebeca finds people with a positive view of aging lived an average of 8 years longer than those with a negative one. She explains that beliefs are powerful because people with a positive mindset about aging tend to have a good diet and active lifestyle. They also have lower levels of stress hormones. Rebeca emphasizes that age beliefs can be shifted. In one study, adults who wrote about a healthy older person's life once a week for four weeks showed a significant decline in negative perceptions of aging.

Despite the growing elderly population, negative views about aging have worsened, as is shown by Rebeca's analysis of a 200-year database of over 400 million words. The language used around aging has become more negative and dismissive since the late 1800s.Rebeca argues that labeling aging as a disease ignores the strengths and growth potential in later life.

"Richards started memorizing the language's Scrabble word list a year ago," his friend Liz Fagerlund — a New Zealand Scrabble official — told The Associated Press.

"He can't understand why other people can't just do the same thing," Liz Fagerlund said. "He can look at a block of words together, and once they go into his brain as a picture he can just recall that very easily."

Nothing like the New Zealander's achievement had ever happened in Spanish Scrable according to Alejandro Terenzani, a contest organizer, who said, "It was impossible to react negatively; you can only be amazed."

Richards has done this before. In 2015, he became the French-language Scrabble world champion, despite not speaking French. He took the French title again in 2018.

Richards is recognized in international Scrabble as the greatest player of all time. In 2008 he became the first player ever to hold the world US and British titles at the same time, despite having to "forget" 40,000 English words that do not appear in the American Scrabble word list to win in the US.

Scrabble does not require players to know the definitions of words, only what combinations of letters are allowed, but native speakers do have an advantage. Richards' mother once told a New Zealand newspaper that he was not excellent at English in school, never attended university, and took a mathematical approach to the game rather than a linguistic (语言学的) one.

On a sunny afternoon, Emma was riding her bicycle along the quiet path that ran through the park near her home. The warm sun bathed everything in a golden light, and the gentle breeze carried the scent of blooming flowers. She felt at ease, enjoying the simple joy of cycling. Each successful maneuver around a curve filled her with a sense of accomplishment.

Emma's bicycle held special meaning for her. It was a gift from her older brother, who had saved his allowance for months to surprise her on her birthday. He had taken her to several bike shops, carefully listening to her preferences without revealing the surprise. When she unwrapped the box and saw the shiny new bicycle, complete with a bell and streamers, she felt an overwhelming sense of love and gratitude. This wasn't just a toy; it was a symbol of her brother's care and their bond.

Suddenly, a loud crash came from a nearby bush. Startled, Emma stopped and looked over. A young boy stumbled out, holding his arm and looking distressed. He had tripped while chasing after a ball. Without hesitation, Emma dismounted and rushed to his side. "Are you okay?" she asked, concern etched on her face.

"I think I twisted my ankle," the boy replied, his voice trembling. His ankle was swollen, and he struggled to stand. Emma quickly assessed the situation. Just then, another boy appeared, running towards them. It was the one who had been playing with the ball. "I'm so sorry!" he exclaimed, clearly feeling guilty. "Can I help?"

Emma smiled reassuringly. "Of course. Let's get him to the bench over there." Together, they gently helped the injured boy to a nearby bench. Emma used her water bottle to pour cool water on a cloth, which she placed on his ankle to reduce the swelling. The other boy, feeling responsible, offered to go find a park ranger or call for help.

As they waited, the injured boy began to relax, grateful for their kindness. "Thanks for helping me," he said softly. Emma smiled. "That's what friends are for."

The older women customers are among my favorites. Their concern is7; they often wonder if I'm okay and tell me I look tired. One regular, always alone and smiling, is kind and generous, ordering methodically and always8 we have the best ice cream in the city. There's also the guy who comes in frequently to ask if we have the chocolate orange flavor that we only ever have at Christmas. I always have to say no, but his9 brings me joy, especially on days when I'm tired.

As with any job, there are10 moments. My wrist often hurts from repeatedly scooping out ice cream, and it's always annoying when a group of people come in and take way too long to order, holding up all the others11.

In the fall, my full-time job's schedule becomes more12 and I know I'll have to scale back my shifts. I'll miss the13 of the summer season and will14 my favorite customers less often. But the interactions and connections I've made will sustain me until at least next summer. Hopefully, the orange chocolate ice cream will have15 by then.

Accept uncertainty and learn to thrive in it

. You can never be entirely sure what the future holds. Embrace this uncertainty and find ways to flourish within it. Unexpectedly, it might open doors to thrilling opportunities you hadn't considered before. Pour your passion into what matters to you and strive diligently toward your aspirations. That's the best approach you can take..

Distract yourself with another activity

Really can't seem to get it out of your head?. This approach is most effective when you choose an activity that fully captures your attention, like pursuing a hobby or delving into a remarkable book. For instance, I find myself completely immersed when I'm with my horses — whether it's just grooming them or simply spending time in their company, it helps me forget about everything else.

If you find that the above strategies aren't helping you manage your worries, try setting aside a specific time each day to focus on them. During this period, write down all your concerns in your worry journal and commit to stopping once the time is up. This allows you to externalize your worries, getting them out of your head and onto paper, which can be incredibly effective for clearing your mind.
 

A. The charm of life lies in its unpredictability

B. Reach out to a friend to discuss your concerns

C. What happens next is in the hands of the world

D. Chances are, it occurs several times daily, or even more

E. Set aside a specific time for worrying and keep a worry journal

F. Dive into an activity that's totally different and demands your concentration

G. Talking about your worry will help you know about whether your worry is realistic

Despite our awareness of the perils of plastic, fashion's dependence on it persists. A recent report says between 1980 and 2014, production of polyester increased by nearly 900%. Two common plastics, polyester and nylon, account for 69% of all the materials used in clothing globally and that number is expected to increase to 75% by 2030.

So why do we continue to use plastics? The main reason is, of course, cost. The market price for synthetic fibers is significantly less compared to natural fibers, creating a huge incentive for fashion brands to find ways to replace traditionally used natural fibers with synthetic ones. Moreover, making synthetic materials isn't dependent on seasons or farms affected by rainfall or heatwaves, as is the case with cotton and wool.

You've likely seen a lot of brands promoting themselves as sustainable by using plastic bottles to make their clothes. But the problem is, our plastic-based textile economy has led to unsustainable overproduction of clothing that is unhealthy for our communities and our ecosystems. And plastic clothing is still going to impact our health and have a lasting effect on the environment. Textiles made from plastic fibers are responsible for microplastic fiber shedding at every stage of their lives: when they're worn, washed, and disposed of. These microplastics enter the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat. Plus, clothing made from plastic bottles can actually disrupt and shorten its life cycle. When a bottle is transformed into clothing, it often accelerates that bottle's journey to the landfill because we purchase and discard our clothing at such a rapid pace.

While the hidden story of plastic in our clothes doesn't have the happiest of endings — yet! — we can each take measures. Reduce our overall consumption of clothing and textile products and extend the life of our favorite garment. Learning to mend can be a game-changer. When we do make textile purchases, buy and wear natural fiber products, especially those originating from land-based production systems that are working to restore and build ecosystem and soil health.

The location is so isolated that the closest people to Point Nemo are not even on Earth. Astronauts aboard the International Space Station are around 258 miles from the Earth's surface at any given time. Since the inhabited area closest to Point Nemo is more than 1,000 miles away, the humans in space are far closer to the pole of inaccessibility than those on land.

Not even the man who first calculated the precise location of Point Nemo has ever visited it. In 1992, Croatian survey engineer Hrvoje Lukatela set out to find the exact point in the Pacific that was farthest away from any land using a computer program. It is very possible that no human has ever passed through Point Nemo's exact coordinates. As for non-human inhabitants, there aren't very many of those around Point Nemo either. Point Nemo's coordinates fall within the South Pacific Gyre, an enormous rotating current that prevents nutrient-rich water from flowing into the area. Without any food sources, sustaining most life in this part of the ocean is impossible.

Point Nemo does, however, have at least one other eerie claim to its name. Due to its remoteness and distance from shipping routes, the area around Point Nemo was chosen as a "spaceship graveyard". According to CNN, NASA first started using the region in 1971. Since then, more than 263 pieces of space junk have crashed into the area, including some of the world's greatest spacecraft, the Russian Mir space station and NASA's first space station, Skylab.

For Zhu, each malfunctioning wheelchair is like a body succumbing to a cold, a challenge that he has embraced throughout his 10-year career in wheelchair repair. At 33 years old, Zhu showcased his expertise on the world stage during this summer's Paris Paralympics, operating in the repair centers nestled within the Paralympic Village and competition venues.

Operating as a linchpin of support, his role parallels the medical care that athletes receive. Ensuring that wheelchairs are functional and comfortable is paramount for athletes to compete effectively and to live their daily lives harmoniously. Zhu, along with a dedicated technical team, provided complimentary repairs to athletes and officials from around the world, ensuring their equipment was impeccably maintained. Every day presents its unique set of challenges, Zhu reflected. There are instances where a simple loose screw or a rust-stained part needs fixing, but other occasions require thorough examinations where repairs can span from thirty minutes to several hours.

The intricacies of wheelchair functioning can significantly affect an athlete's performance. On the court, athletes depend entirely on their equipment; outside of competitions, these devices afford them mobility and comfort within the Paralympic Village, Zhu explained. Stationed amidst the flurry at the assistive device repair center, Zhu, alongside an array of technicians, remained steadfast in their commitment to excellence. Jennifer Duke, who managed the repair center's front desk, noted that the team was composed of around 180skilled technicians hailing from diverse countries, including Canada, France, and the Netherlands.

Jane Goodall

Jane Goodall is a famous expert on chimpanzees (黑猩猩). When she was 18, Goodall stopped schooling and worked three jobs — as a secretary, assistant film editor, and a waitress — just to pay for her first trip to Africa. In her early 20s, she arrived in Mombasa and worked for the well-known scientist Louis Leakey. Despite lacking a degree, she spent years observing chimpanzees in the wild before earning her PhD. Goodall's journey teaches us that hard work and determination can help us achieve our goals.

Louis Pasteur

Louis Pasteur was one of the most significant scientists of the 19th century. In his youth, he did not stand out academically and was more interested in art. However, he decided to pursue a career in science, applying to the top university, Ecole Normale Superieure. After initially finishing 15th in the entrance exam, he devoted another year to his studies and later ranked 4th. Pasteur's devotion highlights the importance of willpower in achieving success.

Caroline Herschel

Marie Curie may be the most famous female scientist, but she was far from the first. Caroline Herschel began her career as a singer but eventually became a brilliant astronomer. She was the first woman to discover a comet (彗星) and received many honors, including being the first woman paid for her scientific work. Herschel's story emphasizes the importance of following one's passion.

Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci was a knowledgeable person who was expert at various fields from art to science. His innovative ideas, such as drawings of flying machines and advanced engineering studies, remind us to maintain curiosity and explore diverse interests. Da Vinci's life encourages us not to limit ourselves and to remain open-minded in our pursuit of knowledge.
