In some countries, many families are choosing camping as an affordable way to vacation due to the cost-of-living crisis (危机). Here are several tips to help make your first camping trip a success.
Camping needs careful planning. Making a detailed list of what to bring ensures nothing important is forgotten. It is advised to pack light and easy-to-set-up tents (帐篷). It's also important to choose equipment suitable for the season. For families, bringing comfort items like favorite books or toys can make the new environment more welcoming for kids. Other necessaries like wet wipes (湿巾) are must-haves.
Camping is more than just setting up a tent. Group camping trips can simplify things, especially when it comes to meals. Sharing meal responsibilities with other families not only reduces the load but also improves the shared experience. Choosing simple and easy-to-prepare foods helps too.
Activities like treasure hunts, campfire stories can turn camping into an adventure. Nature itself offers endless enjoyment, from bird watching to plant recognizing. Moreover, camping is also an opportunity to teach kids valuable life skills and safety lessons. From cooking over a campfire to learning about nature, these experiences are both educational and enjoyable. Safety lessons are also important, like staying within campsites and recognizing dangerous plants.
All in all, camping is a fantastic way to enjoy the outdoors and spend quality time with family.
A. Use the experience to teach life skills.
B. Camping should be an enjoyable adventure.
C. It also includes preparing and planning meals.
D. Allow the kids to take part in planning process.
E. Since children can get untidy, packing extra clothes is necessary.
F. With the right preparation and attitude, it can be an unforgettable experience.
G. However, for first-time campers, especially those with kids, the experience can be challenging.

2、 将下列几个部分(A、B、C、D和E)按题号排序,构成一个符合逻辑的完整语篇。
A. Another is to read to them. Researchers found that 80%of children surveyed say they love being read to. Children aged 6 to 11 whose parents do not read to them anymore say they miss it.
B. The researchers also suggest permitting children to choose their own books. Of all the 6-to 17-year-olds in the study, over 90%said their favorite books are those they chose for themselves.
C. For some people, the warmest memories from childhood come from being read a great story. But reading to children does more than create warm memories. It develops children's language skills and increases their ability to succeed in school.
D. The researchers identify some ways to develop a love of reading in a child. One is simply to have books at home. Elizabeth once wrote and illustrated children's books, so the family always have plenty to read. All her children learn from books.
E. A new report says reading aloud is so important that parents should start as soon as their children are born and continue to read aloud even after their children can read by themselves. For young children, parents should ask questions about the book.

Joseph Frederick Engelberger, the Father of Robotics, was born on July 26, 1925. He received his degree in Electric Engineering in 1949 from Columbia University. He worked as an engineer in a company and then he met George Devol at a party in 1956, two years after Devol had designed and patented (获得专利权) an industrial robotic arm. However, the company where Engelberger worked was closed in the year he met Devol.
Finding himself jobless but with a business partner and an idea, Engelberger co-founded Unimation with Devol, creating the world's first robotics company. Over the next two decades, the Japanese took the lead by investing (投资) heavily in robots to replace people performing certain tasks. In Japan, Engelberger was widely recognized as a key player in Japanese manufacturing quality and efficiency.
After observing his aging parents, Engelberger saw the robotics automation could be used in the medical field. In 1984, Engelberger introduced HelpMate and hoped to start a new industry for in-home robots. He sold his first HelpMate to Danbury Hospital in 1988. The medical robot was so successful that the hospital ended up purchasing another, and within a decade, well over 100 hospitals worldwide operated HelpMates.
Senator Joseph Lieberman delivered a speech in the U. S. Senate in praise and recognition of the inventor, calling HelpMate an example that shows the federal investment in science and technology for patients can lead to new products that create jobs for Americans and make for a better quality of life.
Engelberger liked working. So even after he got into his 80s, he remained active in the promotion and development of robots for use in elder care.
(1)、What happened to Engelberger in 1956?A、He got his college degree. B、He was unemployed. C、He invented a robotic arm. D、He sold his company.(2)、How did the Japanese treat Engelberger?A、With alarm.

With the widespread use of smartphones, emojis(表情符号)have become a popular medium for expressing emotions and ideas. Researchers now believe these expressive symbols can play a significant role in medicine, increasing the response rate of health surveys(调查).
Scientists say that employing emojis in healthcare communications has several benefits, such as general recognition across diverse populations. So the study authors strongly support the use of emojis to bolster communication between patients and physicians.
"By promoting more effective communication between patients and care providers, as well as between physicians themselves, an emoji-based language system with a common agreement of meanings can be developed," says Professor Kendrick Davis, who is an associate professor at the UCR School of Medicine. The professor has been working on creating an emoji-based measurement system for the past two years. And he has even conducted a study using emojis to measure health among college students.
Davis further explains that a significant part of medical communication includes surveys, which are often areas of communication breakdown. "Surveys are usually passed to patients in a variety of different stages of their care. But many surveys are explained with language that can introduce an obstacle. This is where emojis, which are friendly and widely used, come into play by replacing survey language that can be hard for some patients to understand," he says. The authors also point out that while effective communication is important for successful treatment and care, certain health conditions such as brain injury can cause major obstacles. In such cases, emojis could be helpful.
However, Davis also acknowledges the importance of qualitative(定性的)methods. He expresses an interest in partnering researchers whose methodologies are heavily qualitative.
(1)、Why does the author mention the use of smartphones in paragraph 1?A、To introduce the functions of emojis. B、To explain why emojis develop fast. C、To tell us where emojis are mainly used. D、To show emojis have become widely used.(2)、What does "bolster" underlined in paragraph 2 mean?A、Improve. B、Start. C、Predict. D、Suggest.(3)、Which of the following may Professor Kendrick Davis agree with?A、Emojis shouldn't be used in letters from doctors. B、Physicians are poor at communicating with patients. C、Major obstacles can be caused by emojis sometimes. D、Emojis can help patients finish medical surveys better. -

100-year-old Alfred Larson has been through a lot in his lifetime, but one thing that keeps him going is bluebirds.
When Alfred retired in 1978, he wanted to find a hobby or something to do that would keep him busy and provide him with a sense of purpose. When he read a National Geographic article about crafting wooden nest boxes for bluebirds to help improve their populations, he decided to give it a try. Alfred explained that he started building nest boxes on his ranch (大牧场) using left-over pieces of wood.
More than four decades later, Alfred is still going strong and promoting bluebird conservation efforts. Alfred is now monitoring nearly 350 nest boxes on six different trails (小路) in Southwest Idaho. He said, "I settled on a simple design that was easy to build and easy to monitor. I kept adding more boxes on these trails, and these birds responded." Alfred's boxes give bluebirds a lot of help in survival. "Without his work, we can't see so many bluebirds now," said Pearman, the author of Mountain Bluebird Trail Monitoring Guide.
To celebrate his achievements, filmmaker Matthew Podolsky worked with Alfred for weeks to create a 30-minute documentary—Bluebird Man. The film explores how everything led him to the work he does today and his efforts in bluebird protection. "I remember the first trip I took to the bluebird trail with Alfred, and I was very surprised by the speed with which he moved from box to box," said Podolsky. "He was hiking across difficult and uneven terrain (地形). I often struggled to keep up with him. Sometimes we'd check more than 100 boxes and be driving home in the dark."
The impact he's had on the populations of bluebirds in North America will continue.
(1)、How did Alfred help save bluebirds?A、By feeding them personally. B、By preventing illegal hunting. C、By making wooden nests for them. D、By writing articles about them.(2)、What can we infer from paragraph 3?A、The number of bluebirds in Southwest Idaho decreases. B、Alfred makes a big difference to bluebird conservation. C、Climate change is threatening the survival of bluebirds now. D、Alfred's efforts have greatly inspired others to protect bluebirds.(3)、What might be the documentary mainly about?A、How the natural habitat of bluebirds disappeared. B、How bluebirds have survived in the past four decades. C、What influence humans have on bluebirds. D、What Alfred does every day to protect bluebirds. -
6、 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。
That night, I quarreled with my mother, then stormed out of the house. While on the road, I remembered that I did not have any money in my pocket, I did not even take my cell phone with me to make a call home.
At the same time, I went through a noodle shop, and I suddenly felt very hungry. I wished for a bowl of noodles, but I had no money!
The seller saw me standing before the counter and asked, "Hey little girl, you want to eat a bowl?"
"But … but I do not carry money …" I shyly replied.
"Okay, I'll treat you." the seller said, "come in, I will cook you a bowl."
A few minutes later the owner brought me a steaming bowl of noodles. After eating some pieces, I cried.
"What is it?" He asked.
"Nothing. I am just touched by your kindness!" I said as I wiped my tears. "Even a stranger on the street gives me a bowl of noodles, and my mother, after a quarrel, chased me out of the house. She is cruel (残忍的)!!"
The seller sighed, "Girl, why did you think so? Think again. I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you felt that way. Your mother has been taking care of you since you were little, why were you not grateful and why did you hurt your mom?"
I was really surprised after hearing that.
Why did I not think of that? A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful, and my mother has raised me since I was little and I have never felt so, not even a little.
