His job was to listen to school kids read, thus4 their learning and boosting their confidence. He listened to the readers attentively and never corrected or laughed at them when they tripped over words. His encouraging eyes5 the little readers' enthusiasm, and they didn't6 a single page. After reading, students would put a7 on Henry's nose, which he'd catch in his mouth.

One day, a special education student joined us. Noticing his fear, Henry lay on the floor8 the boy's shaking knees as he9 to read his picture book. Words10 in his throat. Henry licked his hands, and the boy tried again: "Cat… in…" Then a wet nose pushed the page with a picture of a hat. "CAT IN THE HAT!" the boy shouted. The teacher was amazed, "That is the first time this student has ever read11!"

Over 200 school visits, Henry received over 600 biscuits as rewards and12 silent fears into brave voices. Children may grow up, but my red-furred listener remained constant in his13. He never missed a single visit, always arriving with the same14 to listen. It served as a gentle15 that a little bit of love and patience can truly make a difference.

Firstly, humor simplifies tough scientific knowledge.. For example, explaining AI in self-driving cars with a funny analogy about "machines learning like clumsy toddlers" makes abstract ideas easy for non-professional groups to understand.. Scientists sharing clever and humorous stories about laboratory experiments on social media often attract more interactions than dry academic posts. Additionally, humor humanizes scientists, as seen in popular science lectures where light-hearted jokes help audiences feel closer to researchers.

. The hidden risks deserve our attention. If the content itself is untrue, humor can even replace facts, leading the audience to form wrong opinions about scientific knowledge just based on the amusing posts they see. Overusing sarcasm or negative humor also has the opposite effect, as it will quickly make scientists lose the public's trust and damage their credibility.

Proper humor use requires a balance between vivid expression and professional precision. It should neither overshadow the core scientific information nor be so shallow that it loses seriousness.. Scientists who master this balance can effectively narrow the divide with the public, making science more welcoming and popular.

A. It also boosts audience engagement effectively.

B. Therefore, scientists should prioritize humor to gain popularity.

C. It helps break the impression of scientists being cold and distant.

D. A little humor can greatly enhance scientists' communication effect.

E. Humor in scientific communication is a double-edged sword, though.

F. It's a helper in making complex concepts understandable to ordinary people.

G. Thus humor needs to be employed with great care in scientific communication.

The researchers drew inspiration from the remarkable efficiency and endurance of monarch butterflies, known to have incredibly long migrations between Canada and Mexico. Every autumn, millions of Monarch butterflies start a 3,000-mile journey from their North American breeding grounds to the warmer climate of southwestern Mexico for the winter.

These new robotic wings achieve energy-efficient flight by combining movement with passive bending, which was rarely copied outside the natural world. The team, led by Professor Oliver Gutfleisch and Dr. Denys Makarov, used a combination of flexible plastic fixed with tiny magnetic particles (颗粒) to build the wings.

The team found that the magnetic particles, when exposed to external magnetic fields, caused the wings to bend in a manner similar to that of butterflies. Achieving the desired design proved challenging; however, after testing fewer than 12 different designs, the team could develop wings strikingly similar to those that evolved in butterflies.

Looking ahead, these new wings could have a wide range of applications. One could be environmental research in which winged robots monitor pollinator populations or measure air quality. They could also be helpful in disasters, with their small, energy-efficient design, enabling robots to navigate dangerous areas for search and rescue operations. The team also pointed out that the new design could also be readily adapted for medical sciences.

The principle of using magnetic particles in this way could also open doors for developing new kinds of artificial muscles or other innovative materials that can change shape on demand. While the robotic wings currently rely on external magnetic fields to change shape, the team is optimistic about integrating man-made magnetic field generators into future upgrades of the technology. "We plan to explore what changes to magnetic fields can enable more complex movements and control," explained Muhammad Bilal Khan, another lead author.

Bushby began his adventure in Punta Arenas, Chile, trekking north through South and North America, finally reaching Alaska. In 2006, he attempted one of the most dangerous legs of the journey: crossing the frozen Bering Strait into Siberia. Armed with a gun to scare off polar bears and forced to leap between moving blocks of ice, he achieved what few people on Earth have ever done.

His challenges didn't stop there. Last year, when he couldn't safely travel through a European country, he took on a new challenge — swimming across the Caspian Sea. With a support team and co-swimmer Angela Maxwell, Bushby spent 31 days completing the 179-mile crossing, swimming a total of 132 hours.

After reaching Azerbaijan, he continued through Turkey, and now stands less than 2,000 miles from home. He hopes to recenter Europe this summer and walk into Hull by September 2026. Returning home after nearly three decades, he admits, will feel unrealistic. He left when he was 29. He will return at 58. He says reuniting with family will mean "getting to know each other again".

Bushby walks an average of 30km a day and rests wherever he can find shelter. His mission, called the Goliath Expedition, has outlasted five UK prime ministers, a global health incident, and numerous wars — but his spirit remains as strong as it was in 1998. And the world is cheering him on as he enters the final chapter of one of the most extraordinary human endurance journeys ever attempted.

In a martial arts club in Yaounde's Mimboman neighborhood, the steady beat of feet and sharp shouts fill the room as (score) of students mirror the fluent, forceful movements of their instructor, Martin Mangwandjo. Beneath the bright sun, the 29-year-old moves with confidence and ease, relying on walking sticks due to a congenital (先天性的) disease. Over the years, for him, Chinese martial arts (be) more than a physical practice.

Martin's passion began in childhood, sparked by unexpected encounter with Chinese culture through martial arts films (feature) legends like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan. Through persistence and self-training, his confidence grew. His journey took a (decide) turn during a performance in which with his skill and determination, he (impress) a visiting Chinese martial arts master Xiao who offered to train him personally and taught him many aspects of Chinese culture like traditional Chinese medicine, kung fu, and tai chi.

Over time, Martin's understanding of martial arts deepened. "I found in martial arts a certain power, a certain physical strength I could employ (defend) myself in any dangerous situation," he said. "I also felt a sense of fulfillment with the understanding we all remain the same even if we may be born with certain physical limitations."

More than a practitioner, Martin now sees himself as a "cultural ambassador". "My wish is to see many Africans and Cameroonians, even those with disabilities like myself, take an interest in Chinese culture and Chinese martial arts in particular, I have found a source of moral strength that enabled me to overcome any situation or difficulty in life," he said.

Optimism and pessimism are both powerful forces, and each of us must choose which we want to shape our outlook and our expectations. There is enough good and bad in everyone's life to find a sensible basis for either optimism or pessimism. It's our decision: From which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in hope or down in despair?

The way you look at life will determine how you feel, how you perform and how well you will get along with the other people. On the contrary, negative thoughts, attitudes, and expectations feed on themselves; they become a self-fulfilling prediction. Pessimism creates a dark place where no one wants to live.

Optimism doesn't need to be naïve (轻信的). Some of them are not dealt with easily. But what a difference optimism makes in the attitude of the problem solver! For example, through the years I've heard some people say that the money spent on our space program has been wasted. "Instead of spending $455 million to put a man on the moon," they say, "why not spend that money here on earth on the poverty problem?" But when you ask them exactly how they would spend that money to solve the poverty problem, most of them don't have an answer. "Give me a solution," I tell them, "and I'll raise you the money. " An optimist does not just criticize.

Optimism distracts our attention away from negativism and channels it into positive, constructive thinking. When you're an optimist, you're more concerned with problem-solving than with useless complaints about issues. It takes a dreamer-someone with hopelessly optimistic ideas, great persistence, and unlimited confidence to tackle a problem that big. It's your choice.

A. The good in life far outweighs the bad.

B. We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or curse (诅咒).

C. An optimistic attitude is not a luxury; it's a necessity.

D. He thinks in positive terms about how to address the issue.

E. You can be an optimist and still recognize that problems exist.

F. In fact, without optimism, issues as big and ongoing as poverty have no hope of solution.

G. America's space program resulted in many positive discoveries that have benefited mankind.

His research shows users of car-sharing platforms reduce their impact by only 3 to 18 percent — much less than 51 or 37 percent claimed in previous research. This is caused by so-called "rebound effects", which are rarely accounted for by companies or even researchers.

For example, shared vehicles are replaced with new models more frequently than private cars. Additionally, the introduction of sharing schemes (方案) can encourage people to drive when they would have otherwise taken public transport. These rebound effects turn out to be highly influential. Amatuni also found users of sharing platforms don't significantly reduce their driving. "And if they do, they often take buses and trains, which aren't emission - free," he says. While public transport is usually a better option, its impact is not negligible. So, this data must be included to make an accurate assessment.

Similarly, Amatuni discovered that a second-hand phone only offsets (抵消) about one-third of a new phone's production. Rebound effects are the cause. If people couldn't sell their old devices, they would use them for longer.

In other words, reuse both extends the lifetime of a device — by giving it a new owner — but also shortens it, as people tend to sell their newly bought devices sooner.

Amatuni doesn't want people to conclude taking small steps towards sustainability is pointless. "Our intentions are still what's most important," he says, "but meanwhile, people need to realise there're no easy fixes." He recommends prioritising overall consumption reduction rather than continuing current habits while trying to make them more efficient.

I became a mentor (导师) during my second year of Ph. D. but didn't get much guidance on how to do it. I learned only by doing. There were moments I felt proud of. One student started out quiet and unsure, but over time grew into a most independent and confident young researcher. Before graduating, she told me, "You are the reason I stuck with this." That moment stayed with me. But so did the other one — the silence, the absences, the slow fade-out. Had I failed her?

It wasn't until the final year of my Ph. D. that I came across a leaflet for a mentorship training workshop. Skeptical at first, I decided to try it. The program, called Entering Mentoring, brought together graduate students for weekly discussions. For the first time, I had the space to explore the invisible labor and emotional complexity of mentoring. One session asked us to reflect on our own practices. I began to realize what might have been missing in my relationship with the student who had drifted away. I had never invited her to share her goals or concerns. I could have been more attentive to her unspoken struggles.

After the workshop, I began changing how I interacted with students. I now start by asking how they're doing, not just experimental details. This shift has led to more honest conversations. I've learned that good mentors are built through reflection and training. I wish I'd attended that workshop earlier, but I'm grateful I did at all.
