1、This summer I came face-to-face with three deep-rooted fears: heights, bears, and ageing.
Two friends joined me on a four-day wilderness getaway, and since we were all in our seventies, we decided we'd better go while we still could. Our adventure began with a scary drive up a winding mountain road.
On one hike, I found myself hanging onto a wire on a bridge made of two partly rotten (腐烂的) logs, suspended high above rushing rapids. I would never have attempted it without our guide ahead, mouthing encouraging words. Fixing my eyes on her boots, I inched along the shaky logs. Somehow, I made it across, flooded with a rush of intense excitement and huge relief.
Later, after spotting bear tracks, we were told to make loud noises, which soon became a game once the tension faded.
Until suddenly, time stood still.
We had just crossed a stream when the guide whispered, "There's a bear." I looked up in disbelief and saw not one, but two, about ten meters above us— the brown mother in front, her cub behind.
Though scared speechless, I couldn't help noticing how beautiful they looked in their natural setting. I wondered if it would be my last memory. As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken aback, they stopped, and then slowly turned away. Another fear was overcome!
On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a "meaningful" stick, rock, and leaf to share what would "stick" with us, what "rocked," and what we would "leaf" behind. The bond of friendship would stick with me. Women supporting one another truly rocked. And I hoped to leave some fears behind.
Our guide ended by expressing her admiration, praising not only our fitness but also our positive attitude, and saying she hoped to be like us in another thirty or forty years. Those unexpected words warmed my heart and eased my fear of being "over the hill." Being valued for what we had accomplished felt like winning an Olympic medal — even if just for participation.

2、The International Linguistics Olympiad (IOL) is a competition for pre-university students, held in a different country each year since 2003. It challenges participants, both individually and in teams, to solve linguistic (语言学的) puzzles.

A Puzzle
The names of some South American countries are written in Georgian (格鲁吉亚语) with their English translations:
Brazil
Peru
UruguayQ: What is the English name of this country "
"? The Solution
●The Georgian forms of "Peru" and "Uruguay" have the same number of letters as their English names, showing a direct letter match.
●The repeated U in "Uruguay" further confirms Georgian is written left-to-right.
●"Brazil" has fewer letters than the Georgian version, but thanks to the two other names, we already know:
→R, 
→A,
