Kyle Lybarger, often dressed in camo (迷彩服), doesn’t look like a typical social media influencer. Yet, as a forest worker in Alabama, he has found unexpected internet fame by introducing his followers to the overlooked world of southeastern plants. Today, he acts as a guardian for growing rare and endangered plant populations. Ironically, his conservation journey began with an ecological mistake.
A decade ago, while managing a private forest, Lybarger wanted to attract more deer and wild turkeys. He chose an open, rocky area, deciding it would be a good place to plant food for wildlife. He used herbicide (除草剂) to clear existing plants, sowing a foreign seed fix. In the dry, shallow soil, the seeds didn’t take. But around the edges of the land, where he hadn’t used herbicide, a breathtaking picture of colorful, unfamiliar native flowers came into view in the sunlight.
After Lybarger posted the photos of the flowers online, a local botanist reached out, identifying the flowers as rare species. Lybarger realized he had nearly killed off an area with a wild seed bank of countless species just to plant a few foreign ones. “That’s really a light bulb moment (灵光一闪),” he recalls. He recognized this reflected a common human tendency to dominate rather than coexist with nature. Diving into research, he learned that before human settlement, the Southeast was home to expansive grasslands. Over the centuries, human development and fire control allowed foreign trees choked out the once-diverse grasslands, killing native species.
Finding a new mission, Lybarger now knocks on doors to instruct landowners who are unknowing hosts of rare plants to care for those populations. He also uses his massive online platform to raise funds to protect biodiversity. His secret sauce, which immediately carried like wildfire across the nation, is his genuine passion. Lybarger’s story proves that true environmental protection begins when we stop rewriting nature and learn to read it.
4. What made the native flowers come out
A.Herbicide-free soil. B.Wildlife waste.
C.Foreign-seed removal. D.Sufficient sunlight.
5. What does Lybarger’s “light bulb moment” indicate
A.He found a new planting trick. B.He doubted the expert’s words.
C.He decided to study botany. D.He regretted human intervention.
6. What does Lybarger’s current work involve
A.Building online platforms. B.Selling his secret sauce for money.
C.Learning conservation rules. D.Educating landowners on rare plants.
7. Which of the following would be the best title for the text
A.A Campaign Redefines Nature. B.A Mistake Awakens a Guardian.
C.Secrets to Growing Native Plants. D.Hidden Wealth of Vast Grasslands.

Why do life’s challenges make some people stronger and others weaker The answer may lie in how our minds and genes interact. A new research project is now investigating the cognitive and genetic mechanisms that cause some people to flourish and others to struggle.
Until now, research into cognitive biases and genetics has been entirely separate, so bringing them together in this research is really exciting. Previous research clearly tells us that certain sets of genes may lead people to develop anxiety or depression when they experience negative life events. But the new research finds that, in certain situations, those genes can also be a real benefit to people when they’re in supportive environments. If a child with so-called risky genes is in a good school and has much support, he or she can really flourish. We’re beginning to realize that we shouldn’t call them risky genes, but sensitivity genes. This means that some people at risk of mental health problems could, in the right conditions, be really happy.
The other side of the research looks at cognitive biases. People always say: “Why is the media full of negative news stories ” This negativity can result in a society where people feel very anxious all the time. All of our brains are naturally tuned into negativity for evolutionary reasons - it’s more important to spot a predator (捕食者) than food-but this is especially true for anxious or depressed people. They are even more sensitive to the effects of negative information, making it more likely that they will adopt a pessimistic habit of mind. Crucially, these same people who are more affected by negativity are also more likely to be responsive to positive situations and, potentially, to psychological interventions.
Right now, the researchers are on a five-year project and only halfway through. One of the exciting things is the possibility of developing much more personalized treatment options for psychological disorders. Once we know this, we will be in a better position to tailor treatments for individuals, rather than applying the one-size-fits-all approach used now.8. What’s the focus of the new research
8. What’s the focus of the new research
A.Attitudes to different life choices.
B.The influence of negative experiences.
C.Responsive mechanisms to challenges.
D.The relationship between environment and genes.
9. How do the researchers arrive at the realization about “risky genes”
A.By clarifying an assumption. B.By comparing different situations.
C.By adjusting research procedures. D.By analyzing effects of different genes.
10. What makes people sensitive to negativity according to paragraph 3
A.Pressure from modern life. B.Built-in survival mode.
C.Exposure to negative reports. D.Drive for food resources.
11. Who might benefit more from the research
A.People with genetic disorders.
B.People having high-risk lifestyles.
C.People with mental health condition.
D.People unwilling to accept challenges.

Books were stamped with “Human Authored” logos (标识) at this week’s London Book Fair. The Society of Authors described its labelling as “an important logo to protect and promote human creativity instead of AI labelled content in the marketplace.”
Visitors to the fair were also given copies of Don’t Steal This Book, a collection of 10,000writers including Nobel winner Kazuo Ishiguro and Richard Osman, in which the pages are completely blank. The back cover states: “The UK government must not legalize book theft to benefit AI companies.”
The empty book is a protest against AI companies using copyrighted works without permission or payment to train their models — and against UK government proposals that could legalize this practice. Organized by Ed Newton-Rex, a composer and copyright campaigner, the project has drawn vast support from the literary world. The AI industry is “built on stolen work” “This is a crime that has victims,” he added, “Generative AI competes with the creators of the works it trains on, taking away their livelihoods.”
The protest comes just a week before the UK government is due to publish an economic impact assessment of proposed changes to copyright law. The government initially proposed a system, under which AI firms could use copyrighted material unless rights holders refused permission — an exact opposite of copyright law’s core principle. Only 3% of people surveyed backed the plan. The government dropped it but is now considering a “commercial research exception” that would still allow AI companies to use works without approval for commercial training.
For the authors behind Don’t Steal This Book, the blank pages are a powerful symbol: they represent the future of writing if AI companies continue to use creative work without payment — a world where authors are left with nothing. As the Society of Authors put it, the empty book is “a stopgap measure” — but the real solution is a copyright system that protects human creativity, not commercial greed.
12. Why were the books stamped with “Human Authored” logos
A.To show public sympathy for authors.
B.To fight AI’s stealing copyrighted works.
C.To promote newly-published works.
D.To introduce promising authors.
13. What does the underlined word “victims” in paragraph 3 refer to
A.Ordinary readers. B.Literary promotion campaigns.
C.Human writers. D.Generative AI models.
14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A.The protest weakening UK’s economy.
B.Copyright law enjoying public support.
C.AI firms prioritizing commercial profits.
D.The UK government favoring AI companies.
15. How does the Society of Authors view the empty book
A.It is a band-aid fix B.It stands the test of time.
C.It is a game changer. D.It works once and for all.

A classic song says, “Everybody needs good neighbours.” But in 2026, do we still need them Or have we forgotten how to be friendly with those around us 16 But these days, many live next door for years without learning their names. Is neighbourliness disappearing
Studies show we have less contact with neighbours than before. One survey found that 76% of us believe people were closer to neighbours 20 years ago than today. 17
There are reasons behind this fact. People today move homes more often for work or family needs, making long-term connections harder. In smaller communities, people attend the same schools or shops, so they get to know each other easily. But in cities with larger populations, these chance meetings happen less often. 18 Long office hours or irregular remote work means neighbours may not see each other. At the same time, many of us care more about privacy. Often, our only interactions are arguments about noise or shared areas.
19 A global study found that knowing just six neighbours can reduce loneliness and help people feel safer. For older people or those in poor health, informal acts of support from neighbors can be life-changing. Age UK has highlighted how regular neighbourly contact can help older residents stay independent for longer, while reducing social isolation.
Ultimately, there’s no hard and fast rulebook to being a good neighbour. 20 But at the very least, making sure to smile and offer a kind word can go much further than you might think.
A.Our working patterns also play a part.
B.However, having good neighbours still matters.
C.Most people spend more time socializing than working.
D.What feels caring to one may feel unwelcome to another.
E.Once, our front doors remained unlocked for friendly faces.
F.It also found that one in five have never spoken to neighbours.
G.The survey also noted urban residents interact less with neighbours.

Jack’s eyes lit up with realization. “So… we worry so much about the future that we 33 to live now ”
“Exactly,” I replied. “Life is a 34 . If we let fear take over on the way, we’ll miss its wonders.” The students nodded, their faces brightening.

Water plays a crucial role in shaping self-identity and our relationship with the environment. In Chinese culture, water is a fundamental symbol representing nature and harmony, deeply 36 (involve) in philosophy and mythology. It is 37 source of peace for ancient thinkers and is regarded as aesthetically (审美上) powerful in Chinese art and architecture, integrating the human world with the natural one.
Chinese philosophy, 38 (specific) Daoism, views water as the model for cosmic (宇宙的) and social order. Daoism, formed in the 6th century BC, 39 (believe) humans should live in harmony with nature’s Dao — the natural flow of life. The Daode Jing emphasizes the virtues of water, illustrating 40 its qualities shape and guide the principles of social life and personal conduct to a remarkable extent.
In Chinese art, the landscape concept of “shanshui” combines mountains — representing 41 (still), and water — representing change, symbolizing the harmony 42 brevity (短暂) and continuity in nature. Ancient Chinese architecture, such as Hongcun, integrates water-systems 43 reflect the anatomy (解剖) of an ox, 44 (display) the human-nature balance.
Water demonstrates our connection to nature and reminds us of environment crises, like polluted rivers. They highlight the importance of remembering our ancestral ties to this 45 (essence) element.

My most memorable Thanksgiving happened last year at our local church, where a simple outreach program blossomed into a profound lesson on the power of sharing, care, and inclusion.
A week before Thanksgiving, with a few church members, we wanted to give away holiday meals for families in our community. We contacted neighbors and social workers for families who might be struggling. Their responses were overwhelming: a single mother, Amy, working two jobs to pay medical bills; an elderly couple, Mr and Mrs Jones, whose fixed income couldn’t stretch; the Tomas family, displaced by a recent fire...
Eventually, we created a list of 10 families in financial need, each to receive a Thanksgiving food basket. These were carefully prepared baskets with all necessities for a traditional holiday meal: golden stuffing mix, green beans, sweet potatoes, jellied cranberry sauce, flour, butter, onions, and dessert items, and even turkeys and hams.
That night, the fellowship hall buzzed with laughter and emotion. As each family arrived to pick up their basket, their gratitude was evident. Mr and Mrs Jones shared how this would be their first full meal together in weeks. Amy spoke quietly about job losses, and others about hardships. Yet, in that hall, there was warmth restored.
Just as the families were about to leave, a father, mother, and a child with worn but neat clothes stepped in. The father said they had simply heard through word of mouth that a church was giving out food and decided to come. Clearly, they were not on our list. I approached them and explained that we were unable to provide supplies today for an extra family due to limited resources. I felt so sorry as I looked at the family, hoping they would understand the difficult circumstances. The man responded with an awkward smile, saying, “Oh, never mind. We just came to see if anything was available. Thank you anyway.”注意:

第一节 参考范文
Hello everyone,
We took part in the Campus Beautification Day recently. We cleaned up litter, trimmed bushes and watered flowers. Working together, we made our campus much tidier and more beautiful. I also learned the value of labor and teamwork.
I hope we can hold more such activities. Besides, we can divide tasks in advance to improve efficiency. Thank you for listening!
第二节 参考范文
Just as the disappointed family were about to leave, Mrs Jones stopped them. She walked over with her full food basket and offered to share most of her food with them. Other families also came forward one after another. Everyone took out part of their own supplies and put them together. Soon a new complete Thanksgiving basket was made for the poor family.
Seeing the special “basket”, the family were moved to tears. They expressed their sincere thanks again and again. All of us felt warm and joyful. This experience taught me that true happiness lies in sharing and kindness. On that special Thanksgiving, everyone present felt the power of love and mutual help.
