Wild Times In The Lone Star State
Whether you are enjoying the atmosphere in old-time towns, hiking into untouched wilderness
or preparing for horseback adventures, the plains, grasslands and valleys of Texas make for an
astonishing journey. This is a land rich in natural wonders — read on to discover how you could
absorb yourself in a little authentic western culture.
Hike ANatural Wonder
Located in the Texas, Palo Duro is the second largest canyon (峡谷) in North America, dropping
more than 240 metres. The highlight of a long walk in this rough but beautiful region is to climb to the
Lighthouse, a sandstone rock structure. From here, you will be amazed at the view across miles of
dramatic Texas wilderness.
Enjoy An Enchanted Dusk
Shaped like a large, pink loaf of bread, the Enchanted Rock stands 130m high at the top. Hike up
to its summit before sunset to take in the view across the uneven land below — and listen carefully: as
night falls, you might just hear the rock start to make a screeching noise, just as the old legends insist it
does at dusk.
Meet The Real Cowboys
Fort Worth, as Texans will tell you, is known as Cowtown. Every morning and afternoon, a herd
of longhorns moves along Exchange Avenue in the world’s only daily cattle drive. The cows are

When I was in senior high school, I was scared of writing application letters. One of my biggest
fears was the fear of rejection. Keeping myself in a safe space and doing things that I know I can
perform well was my favorite pastime. But I knew I had to make a change, so I tried to apply for the
college myself.
When I received the first reply letter, I was taking a class then. My heart was beating wildly while
I waited for the school internet to connect faster. When I saw the letter starting with “Thank you for
your application. After a careful review…”, I felt my face growing hotter. Although it was a college I
was not thinking of going to even if I did get in, I was heart-broken.
This fear is applicable anywhere else: the fear of having your projects or ideas rejected or even
the fear of being rejected from your friend group, to name but a few. I cannot tell you how many times
I passed up the opportunity because I always thought there were better applicants out there, and for
this reason, I missed out on so many opportunities to grow.
Even nowadays, when I get a rejection letter from a scholarship application, I have the same
immediate reaction, no matter how many rejections I’ve gone through. But the aftermath (创伤) does
get easier. Every time I am rejected, I am able to bounce back and hand in another application more
quickly. Along the journey of rejections, I realize that I am not incompetent, but that everyone else
may be more capable. And that is okay.
This fear will never truly go away. I’m still terrified to write and publish my articles. But it is
thrilling to know that I write what I want to say, explore my mind and learn more about myself.
Uncertainty is scary, but without experiencing the scariness, we would never grow, would we

For 32 years, Brenda Richardson has provided nutrition (营养 ) services to a diverse group of
people aged 50 and older. Her journey began in college when she took a nutrition course that lit up her
passion to become a registered nutritionist.
After earning an undergraduate degree in dietetics (膳食营养学) and institution administration,
Richardson was selected to practice at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C.. Later,
she worked at several military emergency facilities and then became the hospital chief of clinical
dietetics. She also left active duty to work as a food buyer and nutrition educator for schools. “I am
excited to see the real impact that food, nutrition and dining can have on the prevention and
management of malnutrition and the quality of life for each kid.” she recalled.
In 1987, Richardson was offered a role serving a different population in long-term care. She was
not only a consultant for independent living, assisted living and nursing facilities, but also worked with
food producers and distributors to develop dietary supplement products for seniors. Additionally, she
volunteered with some organizations, where she provided education and training for their members to
serve the elderly. “While I enjoy working in emergency care and schools, I prefer working with my
colleagues to prove the value of nutrition for healthy aging,” she said. “It is so rewarding to see
improvements in person-centered care, the prevention and management of malnutrition and other
diseases, and the positive impact nutrition on individuals’ daily lives.”
In 2019, after being nominated by the Health Care Community Dietetics Practice Group and
Indiana Academy of Nutrition, Richardson received the Lenna Frances Cooper Memorial Lecture
Award. “This is a great honor that represents Cooper’s heritage and leadership in the field of nutrition
and dietetics,” she said. “Her heritage has enabled me to improve my life through evidence-based
nutrition. I am honored and humble.”

If you’ve ever cooked a complex meal with someone, you know the level of cooperation required.
American researchers recently showed that in a virtual kitchen, artificial intelligence (AI) learned how
to cooperate with a human just by watching humans work together.
There are some ways researchers have already trained AI to work with people. Many approaches
involve reinforcement learning, where an AI interacts with an environment online — which can
include other AIs or humans — and is rewarded for making decisions that lead to desired outcomes.
Google DeepMind’s program AlphaGo, for example, learned the board game Go using reinforcement
learning.
But starting training an AI from zero to interact with people through complete trial and error can
waste a lot of time and can be risky. Another choice is to train one AI to model human behavior, and
then use that as a tireless human replacement for another AI to learn to interact with. Researchers have
used this method in a simple game. But repeating human behavior in more complex settings can be
difficult.
Thus in the study, researchers used offline reinforcement learning — a method for developing
strategies by analyzing recorded behavior rather than through real-time interaction. Previously, offline
reinforcement learning had been used mostly to help virtual robots move or to help AIs solve mazes
(迷宫), but here it was applied to the tricky problem of working with humans. Instead of learning by
interacting with people, this AI learned by watching human interactions.
“The research work introduces a way for AI to learn to team up with humans, without even
practicing with us. It could help improve human-AI interactions.” says Nikolaidis, director of a lab.
In the future, humans will increasingly work with AI, both online and in the physical world.
Sometimes we’ll want an AI to silently guide our choices and strategies, like a good teammate who
knows our weaknesses. “It solves an important problem — how AI can learn to work with people,”
says Nikolaidis.
32. What is the function of reinforcement learning in the passage
A. It’s howAI learned to work with people.
B. It’s how researchers helped AI learn cooking.
C. It’s how Google DeepMind developed AlphaGo.
D. It’s howAI got rewards for making correct choices.

A. It relies on real-time interaction. B. It helps AI learn by interacting with people.
C. It takes less time and has less danger. D. It is realized through mistakes and corrections.

How to WorkWith Different Cultures
Working effectively with different cultures is a necessary skill for anyone in a culturally diverse
work environment. Cultural variations in the workplace may range from simple regional differences,
such as varying dialects, to different perspectives on timeliness, productivity, and communication.
36 3
Be aware of your words and actions. What seems appropriate to you may not be a cultural
standard to another person. Before you give someone at work a high five or a pat on the back, take a
moment to consider your actions. Based on what you know about that culture, is touching in the
workplace appropriate 37 Is what you’re about to say possibly rude If so, figure out a way
to rephrase.
Practice patience. It may take a while for you to get used to working with people from different
cultures. Don’t worry, that’s normal. Try not to get angry if communication takes a little extra effort at
first. For example, maybe you are now working with someone whose first language is not your mother
tongue. In this case, they might not understand your point. 38 3Try saying, “Ok, I can see I’m
not making myself clear. How can I help us get on the same page ”
Look at issues from a different perspective. Don’t assume that you are all looking at the issue
from the same angle. It’s possible that you might think you’re working with the same goals in mind,
but that you have a different understanding of the process or outcomes. 39 Looking at an issue
from another perspective can help you find solutions that you might not have considered.
40 But if you put yourself in the right frame of mind, you will likely find it a rewarding
experience despite some challenges.
A. An important strategy is asking questions.
B. A good rule is to consider your words before you speak.
C. Learning to communicate better helps you work with people.
D. There are suggestions for you to work with different cultures.
E. Once someone explains their viewpoint, take some time to reflect.
F. Instead of getting impatient, try to treat it as a learning experience.
G. If you’ve never worked with different cultures before, it can be difficult.

The Best Trip for Actors
School Field trips are always fun and filled with learning. Sometimes students visit a museum or
a zoo. But one year when I was teaching in senior one, I joined some ninth graders on the best field
trip ever.
At that time, I helped the drama coach after school. We were getting the drama classmates ready
to present Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. At first, the students had a hard time with the old English
words. They would laugh and act silly instead of saying their lines correctly. But lucky for us, we were
taking them on a field trip to the Ashland Shakespearean Festival which would change all that.
In the spring break, we all rode a big yellow school bus for eight hours for the town of Ashland in
Southern Oregon. All year long, Ashland fulfills one purpose: The Shakespearean Festival.
The whole town is set up like England during Shakespeare’s time, with the Globe Theatre, an
outdoor theatre, and actors in full costume. The students enjoyed seeing the town set up like their
Romeo and Juliet set. Over the next few days, we watched two plays, one was King Lear, the other is
Romeo and Juliet. When watching Romeo and Juliet, the students’ faces lit up because they knew the
plot of this play. Seth and Emma, the students who played Romeo and Juliet, carefully listened to the
actors as they said their lines. I could tell from their reactions that they understood the play a little
better. They saw the actors move across the stage in the same way we had instructed them to move,
and that helped reinforce those movements in their minds. They were able to see how powerful the
story was; in fact, at the end, Seth and Emma were wiping tears from their cheeks.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为 100词左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。
On the long bus ride home, the students discussed the play.
