Camp Invention 2026: A Summer of Creativity
Camp Invention, run by the National Inventors Hall of Fame, is a famous summer camp with over 35 years
of history, offering hands-on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) activities to help kids build
confidence and problem-solving skills.
In the 2026 program, Spark, curious campers will transform into confident creators as they launch a space
mission, solve an animal mystery, explore entrepreneurship and learn to protect their own creations!
Space Exploring
Kids will build a DIY rocket and launch a space mission to study a new planet’s atmosphere, terrain (地形)
and ecosystem. They will also take part in a Rover (探测车) Race and do interesting experiments in a Space Lab.
Mystery Solving
With the help of a group of robotic capybaras (水豚), kids will develop detective skills. They will investigate
footprints, collect fur and analyze evidence to solve an animal mystery.
Waves Making
Inspired by a surfer’s journey, campers will design and build product models, introduce their creative ideas
to attract investment, and construct a boat with a large advertising board. Setting sail on the water, they aim to make
waves and stand out in the competitive market.
Idea Guarding
Campers will be guided to design programs to encrypt (加密) their creations with codes, and safeguard their
intellectual property from being stolen.
The activities, designed for kids from kindergarten to sixth grade, are facilitated and taught by qualified
educators. Annually, Camp Invention programs benefit more than 147,000 children and partner with 2,600 schools
and districts across the nation. To find a nearby camp, visit invent.org/camp or call 234-901-6085.

“I felt like I was leaving a part of myself in China! I have integrated myself into the culture and connected
with the people here, even though the journey was really tough,” said Calista Ajibola, a British student aged 18,
who has just completed a two-year boarding school scholarship program in China, launched by the UK charity
Engage with China.
Yet her early days in China were far from easy. Culture shocks were striking for Ajibola. The endless
high-rise apartments instead of low houses, the “motorcycle army” dominating the roads and the mosquito bites in
the burning hot summer were all unusual for a British pupil. The language barrier, however, proved an even greater
frustration. Though she had studied Mandarin for five years and achieved a top grade in her GCSE exam, she was
rarely understood in real conversations. “People often couldn’t understand me when I first arrived in China and
would ask me to switch to English. I had scored a nine in my GCSE Mandarin exam, so it was incredibly
frustrating, at times even disheartening,” she recalled.
But as time went on, armed with the courage to make mistakes, a determination to improve, hours of practice,
and plenty of help from her Chinese teacher, she gradually mastered real-life communication. Eventually, her
Mandarin reached the point where she could guide her family around China, chat with taxi drivers, bargain over
prices, and sort out problems that came up. Looking back, she had no regrets about the difficult start. “If I had the
chance to live it all again, I wouldn’t change a thing,” she reflected.
Now back in the UK, Ajibola carries more than language skills — she holds a “China literacy” that has
broadened her worldview. Her story is shared by 34 British students who have completed the program since 2023,
with a third group set to depart soon. For Ajibola, that step led to a transformative chapter she would never forget
— a quiet testament (证明) to the idea that though languages differ and customs vary, genuine connections between
cultures go beyond borders; they are universal and shared.
4．Why did Calista Ajibola say “I felt like I was leaving a part of myself in China!”
A．She lost part of her cultural identity.
B．She regretted her tough journey to China.
C．She grew attached to China deeply.
D．She struggled to adapt to life in China.
5．What troubled Ajibola most at first in China
A．Hot weather.
B．Motorcycle dominance.
C．Mosquito bites.
D．Communication barriers.
6．Which of the following words can best describe Ajibola
A．Determined and adaptable.
B．Outgoing and modest.
C．Courageous and patient.
D．Talented and humorous.
7．What does the last paragraph mainly tell us
A．More British students will join the program soon.
B．Language ability is key to fitting into a new culture.
C．Ajibola’s experience shows a universal bond across cultures.
D．Ajibola now works as a cultural bridge ambassador in Britain.
Laundry pods (洗衣凝珠) have quickly become popular among consumers. People enjoy the mess-free ease
of these pre-measured bags that melt easily in the washing machine, so many have given up traditional liquid or
powder detergent (洗涤剂). It is reported that more than 20 billion plastic laundry and dishwasher pods are used
every year.
But are they environmentally friendly New research shows they may not be. The outer film of laundry pods
is made of PVA, a kind of plastic that does not biodegrade. A study published in the International Journal of
Environmental Research and Public Health shows that over 75% of plastic pieces from these pods can be released
into oceans, rivers and soil. In wastewater, this plastic film can take in harmful chemicals and heavy metals, and
then pass these pollutants up the food chain.
Environmental supporters point out that most consumers have no idea that laundry pods contain plastic.
“People should know that pods are plastic and PVA is entering our water and even our bodies,” says Julia Cohen of
Plastic Pollution Coalition, a nonprofit group.
The Plastic Pollution Coalition, together with Blueland, an eco-friendly cleaning product company, has
asked the US Environmental Protection Agency to ban PVA in consumer goods. They hope to gain public support
for their request.
Sarah Paiji Yoo, co-founder of Blueland, said many industry experts knew these pods were not readily
broken down, yet they still promoted their use. Yoo added that there is little official research on where PVA ends up
after washing, which is why Blueland supported the recent study.
While the study reached no final conclusions, researchers have warned that with billions of pods being used
yearly, further study is urgently needed. In their opinions, few studies have examined PVA’s real behavior in nature,
and more research is key to understanding its influence on human health and the environment.
8．What do we know about laundry pods
A．They have replaced all other cleaners.
B．They are popular for their convenience.
C．They will not produce any plastic waste.
D．They cost less than traditional detergents.
9．What does the underlined word “biodegrade” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A．Melt easily. B．Break down naturally. C．Wash away quickly. D．Mix
completely.
10．What can be inferred about PVA from the text
A．It may pose hidden risks to human health.
B．It is hard to detect in natural environments.
C．It is widely studied for its environmental harm.
D．It has been proven to destroy food chains directly.
11．What is the main idea of the text
A．Laundry pods enjoy great popularity around the world.
B．Researchers call for more study on traditional detergents.
C．Several companies are developing new cleaning products.
D．The plastic film in laundry pods brings environmental worries.
Imagine standing in front of a painting, its colors and shapes pulling you into a world of emotion and thought.
What is happening in your brain at that moment And how can these experiences shape your mental health Eric
Kandel, a Nobel Prize-winning neuroscientist, looks into these questions in his books, exploring the deep
connections among art, neuroscience and psychology.
Specifically, Kandel emphasizes that art’s meaning emerges from the interaction between the work and the
viewer’s brain. Each person brings his or her own memories, emotions and cultural context to the experience,
making it deeply personal. This mirrors a cornerstone of mental health care: Therapy (疗法) must be tailored to the
individual, just as two people may interpret the same painting differently.
When we experience art, multiple brain systems come alive. The visual and sensory systems decode colors
and shapes. The limbic system (边缘系统 ), the brain’s emotional center, stirs feelings like awe or sorrow. This
multi-layered engagement makes art uniquely positioned to influence mental health. For those with depression, art
can help them reconnect with the world; for those processing trauma (精神创伤), it provides a safe space to explore
difficult emotions.
Kandel highlights the shared principles of reductionism in art and science. Artists reduce complex ideas to
essential elements, while neuroscientists break down brain processes into neural circuits (神经回路). This approach
helps in mental health care: psychotherapy simplifies overwhelming emotions, and neuroscience informs targeted
treatments. Engaging with art also stimulates neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to adapt — which is crucial for
breaking rigid thought patterns caused by depression, anxiety or trauma.
The integration of art into mental health care is supported by Kandel’s scientific framework. Art therapy,
mindful observation of art and developing empathy through art are practical applications. Kandel’s work reminds
us that art is more than aesthetics — it is a window into the human mind and a powerful tool for healing.
12．What is the main purpose of the questions in paragraph 1
A．To stress the effect of art on mental health.
B．To explain the importance of neuroscience.
C．To inspire readers to reflect on their feelings.
D．To interest readers in the art-brain connection.
13．What can be inferred about neuroplasticity from paragraph 4
A．It is mainly aroused by artistic creation.
B．It makes mental disorders harder to treat.
C．It can be activated to ease mental sufferings.
D．It causes rigid thought patterns in the brain.
14．What is the author’s attitude towards integrating art into mental health care
A．Supportive. B．Doubtful. C．Neutral. D．Critical.
15．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．The Link Between Emotion and Memory.
B．Eric Kandel’s Achievements in Neuroscience.
C．Art Appreciation: A New Type of Psychotherapy.
D．Art Heals the Brain: Insights from Neuroscience.
Self-doubt and insecurity are emotions we all encounter at some point. The feeling of not fully trusting your
own abilities can be overwhelming. Fortunately, confidence is not something you are born with. 16 . Here
are practical ways to boost your self-respect and face the world confidently.
Practice gratitude. Recognizing all the good in your life helps you remember that you have a lot going for
you. Start keeping a gratitude list to help you focus on the positives. 17 — these can be a kind message
from a friend, a small success, or even a lovely moment in daily life. When you’re feeling down, read through your
list to lift your spirits.
Let go of perfectionism. No one is perfect, so why hold yourself to such high standards Set expectations for
yourself as you would for your best friend. You are likely more forgiving with them, so why not do the same for
yourself 18 .
Surround yourself with positive, supportive people. 19 . Spend time with the people in your life
who leave you feeling awesome. Make plans with friends and family members who make you feel good about you.
Help others. Being a positive force in the world boosts your self-confidence. One can make a positive impact
by doing random acts of kindness and by lending a helping hand. 20 , like helping out in the soup
kitchens or animal shelters if you have the time. Helping others not only benefits those around you but also
strengthens your sense of purpose and self-worth.
A．In fact, it is a skill that can be developed
B．Volunteer for a cause that you really care about
C．Offering a helping hand to those in your immediate circle
D．You can write down the things you are thankful for every day
E．These individuals help you stay focused on your best qualities
F．Don’t be too hard on yourself if others around are much better than you
G．All you can do is your best, and it’s okay if some days your best is a little less

五、书面表达
47．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was sixteen, I worked in a fast food restaurant. And I hated it.
It didn’t start out that way. When I first started working, that little restaurant was my whole social life. I’d
been a sheltered (不谙世事的 ) kid, and it was exciting to hang around with such a diverse group of teens and
young adults. For a while, I loved everything about it: making the food on the line, learning a whole new cuisine
I’d never eaten before, joking with coworkers and customers at the front counter.
And that was before they assigned me to work the drive-through (汽车取餐窗口). I was certain the ringing
of the order bell would make me lose my mind. Ridiculously loud vehicles hurt my eardrums. There were people
who spoke so softly that I assumed they were talking to each other until they shouted at me because I hadn’t
responded. There were people who left their radios on, which also covered their voices. Other people came to the
window, smelling of smoke, using language I didn’t approve of, and shouting at their children and partners. They
complained about me for getting orders wrong after they had changed their minds five times.
I came to fear every day I was scheduled to work. I arrived with a bad attitude and left ready to bite the head
off anyone who looked at me wrong. I’d reply to customers in flat, uninterested tones, my words short and without
warmth. When I had to ask someone to repeat their order, my voice held obvious impatience. I stopped smiling,
stopped saying the usual greetings, and would hand over their food with a stiff (僵硬的) arm, my eyes avoiding
their stare for fear of any possible conflict.
It didn’t take me long to realize this was unsustainable. Nothing was going to change unless it was me. I had
two choices: be miserable, bad-tempered, and hate my life, or figure out how to get into a better mental space at
work. That night, I lay awake, struggling bitterly to make my choice.

The next day, I stepped up to the drive-through with a small plan.

Dear Chris,
I’m writing to share an unforgettable experience of shooting a short video for our school-based course. Last
weekend, my classmates and I went to a nearby village to shoot the video themed “Rural Observation: Green Is
Gold”.
The beautiful rural scenery of clear streams and green fields unfolds in my video. Meanwhile, tourists flood
in to enjoy the breathtaking landscape, while villagers are selling local products happily. The harmony between
humans and nature perfectly interprets the essence of “Green is gold”.
Through my lens, I understood that it is the beautiful ecological environment that brings us a better life. I’ve
attached the video and hope you’ll enjoy it!
Yours,
Li Hua
47．One possible version:
The next day, I stepped up to the drive-through with a small plan. Instead of focusing on everything that was
wrong, bad, or annoying about the people, I began seeing positives, trying to pay a genuine compliment to each one.
“Those nails are a really cool design.” “I like your shirt!” These heartfelt praises found their way straight to
people’s hearts. Every person I complimented froze for a second, but I could clearly see their expressions soften
instantly. Soon we’d share a brief but pleasant chat about where they had their nails done or where they bought the
shirt. Cheerful conversations and bright laughter filled the drive-through all day long.
By the end of the day, I went home happy for the first time in weeks. The fear and anxiety that had weighed
on me for so long were gone. I no longer hated my work, but greeted it with delight and expectation. The people
appearing at my window remained the same. What had truly changed was my perspective and my decision to treat
others with kindness. Never should we underestimate the power of a simple compliment, for such sincere
appreciation can dissolve conflicts, warm hearts and bring light to both others and ourselves.
