A lot of people admired our neighbor. One day a delivery truck unloaded a large 1 system at their house. And the kids discussed the new sound equipment my neighbor had just bought. Meantime, we were living in a house decorated 2 and dressing our kids in second-hand clothes. We lived a 3 life.
My poor mother-in-law, in town for a visit, got to hear my complaints that night. "I feel so 4 sometimes," I told her, as we 5 the table after dinner. "I know we're doing the right thing, living frugally (节俭的), saving money, but it feels so hard. There're so many things I'd like to 6 , so many things I'd like to do, but we just can't."
She 7 as she folded a cloth napkin in silence. Then she turned to me and said, "When you make a comparison between yourself and others, it's easy to 8 what you don't have.

As the world struggles to deal with the climate crisis, some companies are working to remove polluting carbon dioxide from the air. But two US companies have recently made important progress.
Scientists say large amounts of CO2 must be removed from the CO2 atmosphere and stored. But there's so much CO2 in the atmosphere that just planting trees and protecting forests won't solve the problem. And, when plants and trees die, the carbon they've stored gets released again.
That means humans need to come up with ways of removing carbon from the air and storing it. This is called Direct Air Capture (DAC). The science of removing carbon from the air is challenging, and it's still pretty new. So one puzzle for these companies is how to remove carbon without creating more pollution.
A company called Heirloom has just opened the first DAC plant in the United States. The company heats up the limestone to separate out the CO2, which is concrete. The process is extremely expensive. That's a tiny amount compared to how much carbon needs to be removed from the atmosphere, but the company says it hopes to remove a billion tons per year by 2035.
Some people worry that it will take too long for DAC technology to become powerful enough to make a difference. Others worry that focusing on removing carbon could take attention away from more important climate actions, like switching from fossil fuels to renewable energy. But experts say the decision isn't to do one or the other. The world needs to end fossil fuel use and pull carbon out of the air.
A. Plants and trees do this naturally.
B. That's a huge and challenging goal.
C. Not everyone is excited about carbon removal.
D. Graphyte is another US company working on DAC.
E. The new plant can remove 1,000 tons of CO2 a year.
F. Most DAC processes require a large amount of energy.
G. As a matter of fact, CO2 is just a small part of the gases that make up air. -

An increase in a country's working-age population is a blessing. Lots of workers support relatively few children and retired people. So long as the labor market can absorb an increasing number of job-seekers, output per head will rise. That can boost savings and investment, leading to higher economic growth, more productivity gains and developmental speed-up. Yet for countries that fail to seize this opportunity, the results can be tough.
Consider Thailand. It is rapidly aging. In 2021, the share of Thais aged 65 or over hit 14%, a figure that is often used to define an aged society Soon Thailand will, like Japan, South Korea and most Western countries, see a decreasing supply of workers and flagging productivity and growth without extraordinary measures. Yet unlike Japan and the rest Thailand is not a developed country. It has got old before it has got rich.
This is a big barrier to Thailand's future development. To protect its aging citizens, many of whom are poor, Thailand's government will have to spend more on health care and pensions (养老金). This will make it harder to invest in productivity-boosting skills and infrastructure (基础设施). And where Thailand goes, many developing countries will follow.
One conclusion is that countries with a working-age burst need seeking more economic growth out of it. India may never have a better chance than the present. It is widely accepted that privatization and looser foreign-investment rules could raise its growth rate.
Another conclusion is that developing countries need to start planning for old age earlier. They should reform their pension systems, including by raising retirement ages. They should encourage financial markets, providing options for long-term saving and health insurance. And they should try harder to increase female participation in the labor force. Getting more women into jobs would help deal with the fact that women live longer than men, but tend to have less savings and pensions, leaving them in difficult situations in old age.
(1)、What does "opportunity" in the first paragraph refer to?A、Providing more jobs for working-age laborers. B、Reducing support for children and the elderly. C、Encouraging investment for economic growth D、Increasing economic output and labor productivity.(2)、Why is aging considered a barrier to Thailand's future development?A、It causes a shortage of young workers. B、It forces the country to invest in infrastructure. C、It leads to less investment in economic development. D、It increases the burden on the working-age population.(3)、Why is it important for developing countries to involve more women in labor force?A、To extend women's retirement ages. B、To encourage women to be included in health insurance. C、To equalize the number of men and women in the workplace. D、To settle the conflict between women's long lifespan and small pension.(4)、 What is the best title of the passage?A、Aging Problems in Developing Countries B、Planning Ahead for Aging Societies. C、Challenges and Opportunities of Aging Societies. D、The Role of Female Labors in Addressing the Aging Issue -

AI-generated content has recently won big in the literary world. Japanese author Rie Kudan won one of Japan's most famous literary awards, the Akutagawa Prize, with the help of ChatGPT in The Tokyo Tower of Sympathy.
The book is set in future Japan, where AI has become an important part of people's lives. The story centers around an architect who creates a comfortable prison but struggles with a society that she sees as being overly sympathetic to criminals.
Kudan admitted at a news conference that "around 5 percent of the book's text was taken directly from generative AI," reported kyodo News. She added that there is a scene in the book where an AI chatbot answers the main character's questions and she used AI-generated text in the responses given by AI in the story. The word-for-word content generated by AI was applauded by committee members as "practically flawless", said CNN.
This is not the first time that Al-related works have won prizes. In October 2023, The Land of Machine Memorieswas awarded second prize at China's fifth youth popular science and science fiction competition. The fiction was fully created by AI with the prompts (提示) given by Shen Yang, a professor at Tsinghua University. Surprisingly, just one judge among the six of the competition realized that what they were reading was the product of a machine.
So will literature in the future be all about AI? Debates are still ongoing on the matter. Japanese literary critic Akira Okawada told Tyodo News that "it is difficult for AI to create work that addresses ethical themes in depth". However, Chinese writer Luo Ping holds the positive view. "Improvements in technology will not cause human laziness in creating, but rather will only make them involved in more heated competition. With the help of technology, the starting point of human thinking will only grow higher," Luo told Hongxing News.
"I think this is only the beginning for AI in creating literature," Fu Changyi, a member of Jiangsu Popular Science Writers Association, told online news Guancha. "We will wait and see how the future goes," he added.
(1)、What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?A、To lead in the topic of the text. B、To promote an AI-generated book. C、To introduce a famous Japanese writer. D、To show the advancement of ChatGPT.(2)、What do we know about the book The Tokyo Tower of Sympathy?A、It was fully created by AI. B、It is the first AI-created book winning an award. C、Six judges recognized that it was produced by AI. D、The AI-created content in the book was highly spoken of.(3)、What can we infer from Luo Ping's words?A、Al will bring human thinking to a higher level. B、Human authors will be replaced by AI in the future. C、Human will lose the enthusiasm to create because of AI. D、AI doesn't have the capability to deal with ethical issues(4)、What might be the overall tone of the passage towards AI in literature?A、Concerned. B、Negative. C、Optimistic. D、Indifferent. -

In May 2019, a friend who had previously been involved in the Restless Development Sierra Leone Business Brains project encouraged me to apply for the "Saving Lives II" project. Seeing this as an opportunity to move closer to my ambition of working in the medical field in the near future, I eagerly seized the chance. Fortunately, my performance during the interview led to me being awarded the role.
Following the basic training, I was sent to volunteer in Kurubonla, a remote community located in the northern region of Sierra Leone. This assignment presented challenges such as limited road access and communication networks. At first, I felt concerned about being sent there, but with a determined mindset, I set out on the journey, driven by a passion to contribute to my country's development and to push my personal boundaries.
As I got to know the community, I quickly realized that the challenges extended beyond language barriers and cultural differences; there was also a sense of isolation from my peers. However, I refused to allow these challenges to stop me. I threw myself in my duties, working together with local leaders and community members to identify the most pressing needs. Together, we carried out the projects aimed at improving healthcare, education, and infrastructure (基础设施). Additionally, I organized workshops and training courses to share my knowledge and skills with the locals.
Over time, I witnessed the positive impact of our collective efforts. Healthcare facilities improved, the number of students in schools increased, and the overall quality of life in the community showed signs of improvement. These achievements were not solely mine; they were a testament to the cooperative spirit and commitment of the entire community.
(1)、What do we learn about the author from the first two paragraphs?A、He was unwilling to volunteer in Sierra Leonne. B、He felt excited about the assignment in Kurubonla.

D、He was immediately sent to Kurubonla after he was awarded the role.(2)、What can we infer from paragraph 3?A、He assisted in the projects led by the locals. B、He met with only language and cultural barriers C、He overcame challenges to serve the community. D、He attended the training courses organized by the local leaders.(3)、Which of the following best describes the author's personality?A、Devoted but stubborn. B、Determined and passionate C、Confident and cautious. D、Motivated but moody.(4)、What is the passage mainly about?A、The author's growth through volunteering B、Language and culture in voluntary work C、Collective efforts in community development.
