When 12-year-old Erica Fernandez volunteered to help clean up the beach in her new hometown, Oxnard,
California, she could barely speak English. She was just a kid helping 20 adults take care of the beach. She and her
family had recently arrived in California from a small town in Mexico.
Erica started going door to door in her mainly Spanish-speaking farmworker community. “I always loved the
ocean,” she says, “so it made me really sad to see this beautiful beach full of trash. That’s why I decided to help.”
Erica cared too much to stay silent. Having grown up in a tiny town in the Mexican state of Michoacán, she
had a strong motivation to care for nature. “We grew our own food and raised our own animals. Taking care of
nature was part of survival.” She wanted to bring that same spirit to her new life in California.
As her English improved, she talked to kids in her high school about what was going on. “I didn’t know if they
would listen to me. My English wasn’t good and I was only sixteen,” she says. As she nervously approached the
microphone, she was informed that time was running out. One minute and thirty seconds was all she had. “I couldn’
t give my prepared speech, so I just spoke from my heart.”
The result was electrifying. When Erica was finished, people stood up and broke into applause. One of the
teachers said, “I’m very moved by your words, Erica. When I was your age, I was playing video games.”
Only the second person in her family to go to college, Erica wants to become an environmental lawyer so she
can fight for the environment and for the rights of communities. She wants other young people to speak out when
they see something wrong, even if they feel shy about it at first. “We are the future. The future is ours.”

Traditional Chinese opera has been revitalized in recent years, frequently breaking out with spectacular
performances and showing strong artistic prowess. An immersive Shaoxing Opera, “New Dragon Gate Inn”,
performed by Xiao Bai Hua, one of the most remarkable Shaoxing Opera troupes from Zhejiang Province, has
emerged as a phenomenal hit.
The “New Dragon Gate Inn” Shaoxing Opera draws inspiration from the classic martial arts film of the same
name. The story is set against the backdrop of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and tells the tale of martial arts
heroes encountering skilled agents of the traitors at the Dragon Gate Inn located in a vast desert.
Shaoxing Opera, the second most popular of all traditional Chinese operas, originated from south of the
Yangtze River. It has a unique form of storytelling that combines classical singing, dancing and acting into one.
Like many classical art forms, it faced decreasing interest from younger audiences until the groundbreaking “New
Dragon Gate Inn” broke the spell.
The plot breaks away from the traditional focus on the love stories and explores the theme of the martial world.
What’s more, the young team incorporates short videos into the production, successfully generating widespread
attention.
The success of “New Dragon Gate Inn” comes not only from the charm of the work itself, but also from the
cultural heritage and artistic confidence of the Shaoxing Opera genre. “Today, we are putting in great efforts to
make Shaoxing Opera more accessible and relatable to the younger generation. This is a positive step in the revival
of this ancient art,” said Xu Yena, who acts in the show as the landlady of the inn.

We’ve all heard the age-old advice to drink eight cups of water a day. But if you fall short, don’t worry: That
advice is probably wrong anyway. That’s according to new research. which found that for most healthy adults,
there is no real benefit to drinking eight cups of water a day.
The advice to drink eight cups of water a day comes from a 1945 recommendation from the Food and
Nutrition Board of the National Research Council, which encouraged adults to consume about 64 ounces of water
daily. The recommendation referred to a person’s total daily intake of water, including from all their foods and
drinks, but it was widely misinterpreted to mean that people should drink 8-ounce glasses of water every day.
To see how much water people really need, Herman Pontzer, a professor at Duke University and his
co-authors analyzed data on 5,600 people. The participants were tracked with a gold-standard technique called
“doubly labeled water”, which uses water laced with tracers that can be used to track the body’s production of
carbon dioxide, allowing the researchers to get precise measurements of the participants’ daily energy consumption.
The researchers determined how much water the participants lost and replaced each day. a measurement
known as water turnover (水周转率). They found that a person’s daily water turnover was largely determined by
第 6页/共 11页
their size and their level of body fat, which contains less water than muscle and other organs. The more “fat-free”
mass a person has, the more water they need.
The research showed that how much water you need changes over your lifetime. In general, our water needs
peak between the ages of 20 and 50 and then decline in parallel with the slowing down of our metabolisms (新陈代
谢).
So how much water should you drink The answer is simple: Drink when you’re thirsty. Prioritize water, and
try to avoid sugary drinks, which can cause metabolic problems. “If you’re paying attention to your body and
drinking when you feel like you need to, then you should be fine,” Pontzer said.
12. What is the author’s attitude toward the advice to drink eight cups of water a day
A. Critical. B. Supportive. C. Tolerant. D. Uncertain.
13. What can be known about the research conducted by Pontzer
A. It was conducted in 1945.
B. It tracked participants’ daily water turnover.
C. It studied participants’ feelings about drinking water.
D. It found that body fat contains less water than muscle and other organs.
14. Which of the following is correct according to the passage
A. When people get older, they should drink more water.
B. Drinking 64 ounces of water per day is beneficial to people.
C. When people have more muscles, they need relatively more water.
D. Drinking water with sugar can help improve metabolism.
15. Which is the best way to determine how much water to drink
A. By following the advice of experts.
B. By drinking as much water as possible.
C. By paying attention to one’s body and drinking when thirsty.
D. By measuring one’s water turnover.

10 to 14 miles per hour, depending on the terrain and weight of the bike and rider.

The pedal assist on e-bikes can encourage riders to bike farther and more often than they would on a
traditional bike, leading to more exercise long-term. This also makes e-bikes a multifunctional option for older
riders and individuals with disabilities that would otherwise prevent them from biking. ___19___

kilograms each year. That’s equivalent to the emissions produced by one passenger flying economy from

Last year, I started doing some volunteer work for a charity in my town that helps disabled children. I found
out that the charity needed to buy some new wheelchairs, but that they really didn’t have the money. So, I started to
think about what I could do to raise money.
When I mentioned this to my friends, they said, “Well, why don’t you run the London Marathon !” They
laughed and so did I — we all know that I’m not an athlete at all. I’d never done any running before. But later, I
started to think that it might not be a bad idea.
I approached the charity and discussed the possibility of participating in the marathon on their behalf. They
were excited with the idea and agreed to appoint me as their representative. With their support, I purchased the
necessary running equipment and began my training journey.
Every night, I laced up my running shoes and hit the sidewalk, determined to build my endurance. After a
month of consistent training, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that I could comfortably run nearly five
kilometers. However, the reality remained: the marathon covered a challenging distance of 42 kilometers.
第 10页/共 11页
With the race only five months away, I intensified my training efforts. I pushed myself to the limits, knowing
that completing the marathon was not only a personal achievement but also a means to secure funds for four
much-needed wheelchairs. The thought of making a difference in the lives of disabled children motivated me to
persevere.
As the race day approached, I filled my mind with determination and excitement. I knew that crossing the
finish line would symbolize the end of my hard work and the success of a noble cause. With the support of my
friends and the charity, I could run 25 kilometers during my training sessions.
