STEM Summer Programs for High School Students
STEM, representing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, is vital for innovation. Summer programs for high school students provide great experiences that inspire interest and career aspirations in these important fields.
Program in Math for Young Scientists
This program is a six week intensive mathematics program designed for students across the globe.

Besides learning, there is also “fun time” built into the weekly schedule so that students are able to have non math related activities.
Simons Summer Research
It is a seven week program located at Stony Brook University. Students will have the opportunity to participate in special workshops, tours and events free of charge. They will conclude the program by producing a written research abstract and research poster.
Future Matters Program
It is an 8 week paid summer research experience for high school students. This is a hands on program for students interested in going after a career in medical research. Students will attend seminars led by faculty and participate in discussions with peers.
Research Science Institute
It is the first cost free summer program of its kind. During this six week program, students will dive deeper into the world of science and engineering by experiencing the entire research cycle. In this program students attend classes conducted by famous professors and prepare written and oral presentations to present their research.

(2025·汕尾市四校联考)
Are you an open book, your face broadcasting every passing emotion, or more of a poker face, not showing what you are feeling Scientists at Nottingham Trent University say that wearing your heart on your face, could actually give you a significant social advantage.
The study, led by Eithne Kavanagh, a research fellow at NTU's School of Social Sciences, involving over 1，300 participants, noticed striking variations in how much people moved their faces during conversations. Importantly, this expressiveness emerged as a stable individual quality. People displayed similar levels of facial expressiveness across different contexts, with different social partners, and even over time periods up to four months.
The researchers say that facial expressiveness is linked to personality, with more agreeable individuals displaying more lively faces. Facial expressiveness can also translate into concrete social benefits. In a negotiation task, more expressive individuals are more likely to secure a larger slice of a reward. The researchers suggest that for agreeable folks, dynamic facial expressions may serve as a tool for building good relationship and smoothing over conflicts. Across the board, the results point to facial expressiveness serving an“affiliative (有亲和力的) function，” or a social glue that develops liking and smoother interactions.
Expressiveness is also linked to being seen as more “readable，” suggesting that a lively face makes one's intentions and mental states easier for others to decipher. Beyond frequency of facial movements, people who employ facial expressions more strategically to suit social goals, such as looking friendly in a greeting, are also more well liked.
The findings challenge the “poker face” common belief that a still and unemotional appearance is always most advantageous. Instead, they suggest that for most people, allowing one's face to mirror inner states and intentions can invite warmer reactions. As the researchers conclude, “Being facially expressive is socially advantageous.” So, the next time you catch yourself making lines on your forehead, or flashing a smile, know that your face just might be working overtime on your behalf.
语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项科学研究，研究表明面部表情丰富的人在社交中有显著优势，这种优势可以转化为具体的社交利益。文章最后指出，对于大多数人来说，让自己的脸反映内心的状态和意图可以引发更热烈的反应。
4．What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about concerning the study
A.Its impact.
B．Its findings.
C．Its limitations.
D．Its significance.
解析：B　主旨大意题。根据第二段“The study, led by Eithne Kavanagh, a research fellow at NTU's School of Social Sciences, involving over 1，300 participants, noticed striking variations in how much people moved their faces during conversations. Importantly, this expressiveness emerged as a stable individual quality.

(这项研究由诺丁汉特伦特大学社会科学学院研究员Eithne Kavanagh领导，有1，300多名参与者。研究注意到人们在谈话中面部动作的多少存在显著差异。重要的是，这种表现力成为一种稳定的个人品质。人们在不同的情境中、与不同的社交伙伴在一起时，甚至在长达四个月的时间段内，都表现出相似程度的面部表情丰富度。)”可知，本段主要介绍了研究发现人们在谈话中面部动作的多少存在显著差异，而且是一种稳定的个人品质。因此，本段主要在讲这项研究的发现。故选B。
5．What may facial expressiveness serve as in negotiation settings
A．A way to frighten competitors.
B．A method to hide personalities.
C．A tool to show personal quality.
D．A strategy to settle disagreement.
解析：D　推理判断题。根据第三段中“In a negotiation task, more expressive individuals are more likely to secure a larger slice of a reward. The researchers suggest that for agreeable folks, dynamic facial expressions may serve as a tool for building good relationship and smoothing over conflicts.(在谈判任务中，更有表现力的人更有可能获得更大的奖励。研究人员建议，对于和蔼可亲的人来说，动态面部表情可能是建立良好关系和缓和矛盾的工具。)”可知，在谈判中，面部表情可能是建立良好关系和缓和矛盾的工具，帮助有表现力的人获得更大利益。因此，面部表情在谈判环境中可能作为一种解决分歧的策略。故选D。
6．What does the underlined word “decipher” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Copy. B．Overlook.
C．Remember D．Interpret.
解析：D　词句猜测题。根据画线词所在句“Expressiveness is also linked to being seen as more ‘readable，’ suggesting that a lively face makes one's intentions and mental states easier for others to decipher. (表情丰富也与被认为更‘可读’有关，这表明一张生动的脸让人的意图和精神状态更容易被decipher。)”中“Expressiveness is also linked to being seen as more ‘readable，’”可知，丰富的表情更“可读”，即更容易被理解和解读，所以“一张生动的脸更容易被人解读意图和精神状态”。画线词decipher与interpret同义，意为“解读”。故选D。
7．What may the author advise based on the findings of the study
A．Always wearing a still face.
B．Learning to be an open book.
C．Speaking out inner emotions.
D．Forcing a smile through tears.
解析：B　推理判断题。根据最后一段“The findings challenge the ‘poker face’ common belief that a still and unemotional appearance is always most advantageous. Instead, they suggest that for most people, allowing one's face to mirror inner states and intentions can invite warmer reactions. (这些发现挑战了‘扑克脸’的普遍信念，即静止不动、面无表情的外表总是最有利的。相反，它们表明，对于大多数人来说，让自己的脸反映内心的状态和意图可以引发更热情的反应。)”可知，研究表明面部表情丰富的人在社交中有显著优势，所以对于大多数人来说，让自己的脸反映内心的状态和意图可以引发更热情的反应。因此作者可能建议我们要学会像一本打开的书一样，不要隐藏自己的情感和意图，要通过面部表情表达出来。故选B。

Everything you know is in your brain.For what you don't, you can ask the web.However, as you can imagine, in the past there were no computers and no web at all.Think about people living 3，500 years ago, in places where pyramids towered above them.The lack of explanations about how things worked inspired the ancients to make discoveries and feed their curiosity.
But do not think they knew nothing：In fact, we still wonder how the Egyptians could build the pyramids using their own, rather rudimentary equipment.They wrote down their knowledge on books(called papyrus scrolls)so that later people could benefit from their skills.
Living safer and healthier was a top priority for the ancients：When they hurt their heads in battles, they used to heal their wounds using the cures, some of which were recorded on a papyrus now known as the Edwin Smith Papyrus.Interestingly, this is the oldest written evidence of the word“brain”we have on Earth, and it dates back to 3，500 years ago!
However, writing the word“brain”on a papyrus did not solve all the questions about it.Around 2，500 years ago, for example, ancient Greeks wondered whether mind and soul lay in the brain or in the heart.
2，000 years ago, Roman physician Galen of Pergamon was sure he had solved the question：It was the brain, not the heart, that was the center of mental life.However, Galen had to convince the people around him that what he had discovered was true.It was not easy, mostly because people held their earlier beliefs.Every neuroscientist, just like Galen did, has to carefully observe reality, focus on something that is really interesting, think about how it can work, perform experiments, and discuss the data they get.This way, they can obtain convincing evidence to be shared with others.
语篇导读：在没有电脑和网络的时代，人们是如何对未知事物进行探索的？精神生活的中心是大脑还是心脏？本文主要介绍了古埃及人、古希腊人和古罗马人的相关探索，以及他们所表现出的科学精神。
8．What encouraged the ancients to make discoveries
A.The hope for keeping curiosity.
B．The need for writing books.
C．The search for explanations.
D．The wish to work faster.
解析：C　细节理解题。结合第一段中“The lack of explanations about how things worked inspired the ancients to make discoveries and feed their curiosity.”可知，对万物如何运行的解释的缺乏激发古人去进行探索，以满足他们的好奇心。故选C。
9．Which word can best replace“rudimentary”underlined in paragraph 2
A．Complicated. B．Primitive.
C．Electrical. D．Protective.
解析：B　词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句语境可知，此处表示“事实上，我们仍然想知道埃及人是如何用他们自己相当原始的设备建造金字塔的。”，故rudimentary意为“原始的；早期的”，B项与其意思最为接近。故选B。
10．What can be learned about the Edwin Smith Papyrus
A．It was probably a medical text.
B．It was finished 2，500 years ago.
C．It was considered useless at first.
D．It was written by Galen of Pergamon.
解析：A　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“...heal their wounds using the cures, some of which were recorded on a papyrus now known as the Edwin Smith Papyrus.”可知，当他们在战斗中受伤时，他们会用某种治疗方法来疗伤，一些治疗方法被记录在现在被称为《艾德温·史密斯纸草文稿》的书上，由此可推知，这很有可能是一本医学方面的书籍，故选A。
11．How did Galen convince people of his discovery
A.By finding evidence from papyrus scrolls.
B．By asking many scientists to support him.
C．By following strict scientific methods.
D．By teaching people to do experiments.
解析：C　推理判断题。结合文章最后一段中“...carefully observe reality, focus on something that is really interesting...discuss the data they get.”可知，这些都是科学研究的步骤，因此盖伦是通过遵循严谨的科学研究方法说服人们认可他的发现的。故选C。

There's little scientific agreement on how much money is enough to make humans happy.1. After that, higher incomes don't necessarily lead to greater happiness. But other research finds no such cutoff point. Money may not be a path to absolute joy, but it can certainly help. Here are a few research supported suggestions on how to get the most happiness out of your spending：
●EXPERIENCES MAKE US HAPPIER THAN THINGS
Cornell University psychology professor Gilovich says that buying an experience will probably result in more happiness than buying new things.
2. That's great for surviving after a major negative change or the loss of a sense like sight or smell. But that adaptation is not so helpful if you're looking to enhance your well being. Humans will soon get used to a new dining table or a fancier car. But experiences remain novel—and connect us to other people.
Beyond that, our tendency to compare material objects is greater than our tendency to compare experiences. It's easy to compare the size of a house or the price of clothing.3. “You build your experience around you，” says Gilovich, which means you get your own, unique memories to treasure and your own social connections to develop.
●TIME IS WORTH THE MONEY
Don't want to clean your bathroom Hate cleaning out the car？4. A 2017 study published in PNAS found that buying time for activities you enjoy brings consistent emotional rewards.
●SPEND ON OTHERS
Like spending on experiences, “prosocial” spending helps build social connections.5. Social psychologist Lara Aknin notes that giving creates a positive cycle. She says, “Giving to others makes us happy. The happier you are, the more likely you are to do it again.”
A．But experiences are often more personal.
B．This includes giving to charity or treating a friend.
C．That doesn't mean money can solve all one's problems.
D．For one thing, humans have a habit of adapting to new situations.
E．Most people fall into one of the two groups, the researchers found.
F．One 2010 study suggests an annual income of $75，000 is the magic number.
G.If you can afford to buy your way out of the tasks you most dislike, you should.
语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了金钱与幸福感之间的关系，并提供了几条基于研究的建议，帮助人们通过合理消费获得更多的幸福感。
解析：
1．F　根据上文“There's little scientific agreement on how much money is enough to make humans happy. (关于多少钱才足以让人快乐，科学界几乎没有一致意见。)”可知，本空需要引出关于金钱与幸福关系的一个具体观点或研究，因此选项F“One 2010 study suggests an annual income of $75，000 is the magic number. (2010年的一项研究表明，年收入75，000美元是一个神奇的数字。)”介绍2010年的一项研究，能承接上文，符合语境。故选F。
2．D　根据下文“That's great for surviving after a major negative change or the loss of a sense like sight or smell. But that adaptation is not so helpful if you're looking to enhance your well being. Humans will soon get used to a new dining table or a fancier car. But experiences remain novel—and connect us to other people. (在经历了重大的负面变化或失去视觉或嗅觉等感官后，这对生存是很有帮助的。但如果你想提高幸福感，这种适应并不是很有帮助。人类很快就会习惯新的餐桌或更漂亮的汽车。但体验仍然是新奇的，并将我们与其他人联系起来。)”可知，本空需要引出人类对新情况的适应这一话题，选项D“For one thing, humans have a habit of adapting to new situations. (一方面，人类有适应新环境的习惯。)”能引起下文，符合逻辑。故选D。
3．A　根据上文“Beyond that, our tendency to compare material objects is greater than our tendency to compare experiences. It's easy to compare the size of a house or the price of clothing. (除此之外，我们的倾向比较物质对象大于比较经历。比较房子的大小或衣服的价格是很容易的。)”可知，前文介绍了物质的比较，本空应谈论经历与物质对象的不同之处。A选项“But experiences are often more personal. (但经历往往更个人化。)”能承接上文，指出了经历与物质对象的不同之处，符合语境。故选A。
4．G　根据上文“Don't want to clean your bathroom Hate cleaning out the car (不想打扫浴室？讨厌清理汽车？)”可知，本空需要给出对这些问题的建议或解决方案。G选项“If you can afford to buy your way out of the tasks you most dislike, you should. (如果你有能力用金钱摆脱你最不喜欢的任务，你应该这样做。)”给出了一个实际的建议，能承接上文，符合语境。故选G。
5．B　根据上文“Like spending on experiences，‘prosocial’ spending helps build social connections. (与体验消费一样，‘亲社会’消费有助于建立社会联系。)”可知，本空需要解释什么是“亲社会”消费。B选项“This includes giving to charity or treating a friend. (这包括捐给慈善机构或招待朋友。)”解释了“亲社会”消费的具体内容，能承接上文，符合语境。故选B。

Dear Mike，
It was delightful to receive your letter asking about the recent volunteer event our school hosted, themed “Green Life, Healthy Plogging”. I'm thrilled to share the exciting details with you.
The primary aim of this event was to promote environmental awareness and a healthier lifestyle among students and the community. The event itself was a vibrant fusion of physical exercise and environmental action. Participants, armed with gloves and reusable bags, embarked on a jogging route that took them through various parts of our city, including parks, streets, and riverside paths.
Participating in this event left me with a profound sense of fulfillment and optimism. It reminded me that every small step we take towards a greener, healthier lifestyle contributes to a larger, collective effort.
Yours，
Li Hua
