Summeville Steam Special
May 9, 2026 — November 8, 2026
Step aboard for an unforgettable day with the Summerville Steam Special — a classic rail trip from Chattanooga to Summerville, Georgia. Experience the sights, sounds, and nostalgia of vintage (复古的) rail travel aboard a fully restored steam locomotive (蒸汽机车). Perfect for families, history lovers, and train enthusiasts!
The Summerville Steam Special departs at 9:00 a.m. and returns to Chattanooga around 6:00 p.m., offering a relaxed, unhurried day aboard vintage railcars. This is a full-day trip following a classic Southern rail route. Passing through charming towns includes: Chickamauga; Rock Spring; LaFayette; Trion; Summerville. For many guests, the best part is hearing a real steam-powered locomotive sound through the Georgia foothills.
Please note: The Summerville Depot does not have a platform ramp (斜坡). Those with mobility concerns should consider this before planning dining or layover activities.
Extend Your Journey: Optional Overnight Getaway Experience
For guests who want to turn their train ride into a true escape, a limited Overnight Getaway Package is available on select 2026 departures. Instead of returning home the same evening, guests spend the night in one of Chickamauga’s welcoming historic inns, allowing you to slow down, explore downtown shops and restaurants, and enjoy the destination at a more leisurely pace.

There are millions of life forms sharing our planet-so many, in fact, that scientists estimate the total could reach 10 million species. And now, everyday people are playing a surprising role in discovering and protecting them-all from their phones. The app at the centre of it all is iNaturalist, a free platform that’s quietly become one of the most powerful tools in modern science. What started as a simple way to identify plants and animals has grown into a global movement.
“Currently we have about 6 million people using the platform every month,” said executive director Scott Loarie. Altogether, the community has more than 9 million users, logging more than 300 million observations across 197 countries-documenting over 557,000 species.
And sometimes, those observations lead to incredible discoveries. It happens all the time. Almost every month iNaturalist will get a new species described. A man in the Andes found an unexpected visitor in his cabin. He grabbed his camera and took the first-ever photographs of this species, which happened to be sitting on a toilet.
But behind the fun and quirky discoveries is something much more powerful. Every photo uploaded to iNaturalist includes a time and location stamp-turning casual snapshots into valuable scientific data. It’s not just a photo. It has a date, and it has a location. It turns out that most data for most species on the planet now comes from this little app.
That information is helping scientists track major environmental changes in real time. For example, it’s been used to monitor the spread of invasive species like the lanternfly, which has expanded from Asia into the US East Coast. For many users, the biggest reward is realizing they’re making a real difference. “People go like, ‘Wow, I’m actually part of the solution. By taking this photo, I’m helping science,’” Loarie said.
4. What can be said about iNaturalist from the first paragraph
A．It offers ideas for global travel.
B．It charges for identification.
C．It has won global recognition.
D．It is designed for scientists.
5. Why does the author mention the man in the Andes
A．To warn about wild animals.
B．To compare different species.
C．To prepare for emergencies.
D．To show unexpected discoveries.
6. What does the underlined word “quirky” in Paragraph 4 mean
A．Unusual.
B．Serious.
C．Simple.
D．Dangerous.
7. What do iNaturalist users find most rewarding
A．Gaining scientific fame.
B．Contributing to science.
C．Receiving financial rewards.
D．Learning photography skills.

Can generative artificial intelligence systems like ChatGPT genuinely create original ideas A new study led by Professor Karim Jerbi from the Department of Psychology at the Université de Montréal, made a direct comparison between human creativity and the creativity of large language models, pointing to a significant shift.
Researchers evaluated several leading large language models, including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and others, and compared their performance with results from more than 100,000 human participants. They found that while some AI models now outperform the average person, peak creativity remains firmly human. In fact, when researchers examined the most creative half of participants, their average scores surpassed (超越) those of every AI model tested. The gap grew even larger among the top 10 percent of the most creative individuals.
These findings raised an important question. Is AI creativity fixed, or can it be shaped The study shows that creativity in AI can be adjusted by changing technical settings, particularly the model’s temperature. This parameter (参数) controls how predictable or adventurous the generated responses are. At lower temperature settings, AI produces safer and more conventional outputs. At higher temperatures, responses become more varied, less predictable, and more exploratory, allowing the system to move beyond familiar ideas.
The study offers a balanced perspective on fears that artificial intelligence could replace creative professionals. While AI systems can now match or exceed average human creativity on certain tasks, they still have clear limitations and rely on human direction.
Rather than signaling the end of creative careers, the findings suggest a future where AI serves as a creative assistant. By expanding ideas and opening new paths for exploration, AI may help expand human imagination rather than replace it. “By directly comparing human and machine capabilities, studies like ours push us to rethink what we mean by creativity,” concludes Professor Karim Jerbi.
8. What can we know from Paragraph 2
A．AI defeats humans completely.
B．AI fails to create original ideas.
C．AI depends on human guidance.
D．AI can do better than average humans.
9. How does the “temperature” setting affect AI creativity according to Paragraph 3
A．It fixes technical bugs.
B．It controls output variety.
C．It ensures content safety.
D．It decides the response speed.
10. What role is AI expected to play in the future
A．A helper for imagination.
B．A threat to creative jobs.
C．An independent creator.
D．A replacement for humans.
11. What can be the best title for the text
A．AI Systems Have Fixed Creativity
B．Temperature Settings Control AI’s Future
C．Human Creativity Still Leads in the AI Era
D．Montréal Study Discovers AI’s Limitations
D
Understanding soil processes is essential for addressing global issues of food security, disease transmission (传播) and climate change. However, techniques for observing soil biology are lacking. Artificial soil-like materials have been developed to help scientists image the secret world of plant roots. This could help biologists, chemists and physicists improve crops and identify ways to prevent the outbreak of plant-based diseases.
The transparent (透明的) soil was developed by theoretical biologist Lionel Dupuy at the James Hutton Institute in Dundee, Scotland. It gives scientists a much better and more realistic window into how a plant’s rhizosphere-the roots and the organisms living within them-works. It is composed of a material called Nafion, which has a low refractive index (折射率) and high transparency. Nafion is normally used in power-generating fuel cells that also has the ability to support bacteria and can be changed to copy the chemicals of natural soils.
“My initial aim was to develop microscopy techniques to observe and study how roots get round obstacles or find best tracks towards water and nutrients,” Dupuy says. “I was looking for a way to create 3D obstacles for the roots and still be able to observe them. However, as we progressed in our work, it became clear that we could make a new substrate (基质) similar to real soil, which could have many applications.”
Nafion-based soil is extremely expensive (five dollars per gram), but researchers are looking into finding a more affordable material. In particular, Teflon FEP is more widely available and solutions using this material could be made cheaper.
“Future work will focus on controlling a greater range of chemical and physical properties so that transparent soils can be applied to various disciplines of soil biology,” Dupuy says. “I think there is also a real challenge to make this technique low cost so that it can be used by everyone and on a larger scale.”
12. Why were artificial soil-like materials developed
A．To reduce global food production costs.
B．To know about the mystery of plant roots.
C．To prevent the outbreak of crop diseases.
D．To replace natural soils in agriculture.
13. What can be inferred about the material Nafion from Paragraph 2
A．It allows more air in.
B．It is made of natural soil.
C．It has multiple functions.
D．It is widely used in farming.
14. What does Dupuy’s statement imply about his study
A．It got around many obstacles.
B．Nothing valuable was found.
C．It wasted too much of his energy.
D．Its results exceeded expectations.
15. What does Dupuy think of bringing down the price of Nafion-based soil
A．It’s an uphill battle.
B．It’s a piece of cake.
C．It’s a wild goose chase.
D．It’s a double-edged sword.

How to adopt green habits and make them a new normal Here are five tips that help you form sustainable new habits.
16
To form a habit you need to plan exactly what you are going to do and when you are going to do it. And this needs to be realistic. Do you actually have the time and resources you need to do this It is important that the situation or cue (触发提示) is clearly defined and will stand out to you.
Make it fun.
17 And this is one reason to plan behaviours you enjoy. For example, if you want to eat more plant-based foods, find ones that you find delicious. Habits also form quicker when the behaviour is more rewarding in the moment that it is performed.
Change your environment.
The best way to break a habit is to not encounter the habit cue. The easiest way to make a habit is to increase the chances that you will do it each time the opportunity or cue presents itself. 18 We need to add friction (阻力) for things we don’t want to do and remove it for those that we do.
Track your behaviour.
It’s easy to make a plan and then forget about it when life gets busy. 19 If you aren’t, then why not What do you need to change about the plan or the environment You can track your behaviour in many ways: on a piece of paper on the fridge, in an app or in your diary.
Don’t give up.
While working on your habit, remember that every time you do it you are strengthening the association in your brain between the situation and the action, making it easier for you to do it the next time. Don’t give up if you miss the odd occasion. 20
A．Make a specific plan.
B．Experts call this friction.
C．Just start again and keep going.
D．Find some like-minded individuals.
E．This may seem like a long time but it’s worth the effort.
F．You are more likely to follow through on your plan if it is enjoyable.
G．To form a habit, you need to keep checking in to see if you are following through.

What began as a classroom assignment turned out to be a life-changing gift, proving that a little creativity and compassion (同情) can play a huge role in helping someone regain their world.
McGuire, an architecture student, was a person full of optimism and enthusiasm for life. He had an outgoing personality and a love for adventure. Hiking was his passion; he would spend hours walking in mountains and forests, enjoying the peace and beauty of nature. Camping was another activity he adored; lying under the starry sky at night and waking up to the morning sun, he enjoyed every moment of being close to nature.
However, everything changed in October 2024 when he was involved in a motorcycle accident. This accident severely limited his mobility, confining him to places with hard and flat surfaces. He soon found that an ordinary wheelchair was a real struggle on anything but smooth and level ground. After the accident, McGuire was filled with despair. The freedom he once took for granted was now out of reach. He was constantly upset and struggled to come to terms with his new reality.
Then, a chance introduction changed everything. A mutual friend introduced McGuire to a group of engineering students at Tennessee Tech University who were seeking a meaningful project. Braden Hopper, John Avery, and Luke White, three bright and caring young men, immediately recognized the opportunity to make a real difference.
They visited McGuire, listening attentively as he described his dreams of returning to the wilderness. Moved by his determination, they devoted countless hours to designing a solution. Together, they built a custom all-terrain (全地形) wheelchair they call “The Chariot”.
The result was nothing short of incredible — this is a firm and powerful chair, specially designed for outdoor use, aiming to help McGuire regain the sense of freedom that he believes he has lost.

Finally, the day of delivery arrived. The three engineering students pushed the new all-terrain wheelchair to McGuire’s home excitedly. McGuire looked at the special wheelchair carefully, his eyes shining with excitement. He sat on it tentatively and tried moving around. It worked perfectly on rough roads and uneven ground, just as they had designed.
“It gives me back my legs,” McGuire whispered, voice choking with emotion. He expressed sincere thanks to the three kind students. From then on, McGuire could go hiking and camping again. This meaningful project not only helped him regain his freedom but also taught everyone that kindness and creativity can bring great warmth and hope to others.
