Anna Robert is a nurse in Lankien, South Sudan. She has been working for Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) since 2021, and she has taken part in the Nursing Initiative of the MSF Academy. This program aims to strengthen the skills of nursing staff in MSF-supported hospitals.
Anna decided she wanted to be a nurse when she was a kid. “My auntie was a nurse and she encouraged me to become one. I saw her getting dressed every morning going to work. That inspired me to follow in her footsteps and become a nurse too.” To pursue this goal, Anna came to study at Maridi School of Nursing with a governmental scholarship. There she learned about various medical procedures and patient care techniques. After she graduated, she first worked with different health centers before getting a job with MSF.
Thanks to the Nursing Initiative of the MSF Academy, Anna had the chance to further improve her knowledge and skills. She then returned to her village and became a learning companion (同伴), offering one-on-one guidance to other nurses at the bedside.
“Most of the nurses here don’t have the chance to go to school, so they may be lacking some knowledge,” Anna explained. “I wanted to become a learning companion to transfer the knowledge that I have from college to my colleagues. I am able to translate everything for them and they understand it better than from the class.” Anna never hesitates to share everything she knows, always explaining patiently, again and again.
Anna credits her skills and motivation to the MSF Academy training. “It has really improved the staff’s work, and patient care is simpler now,” she said. Now, with the platform provided by MSF, she continues to inspire and empower her colleagues, proving that shared knowledge multiplies care.
4. What inspired Anna to be a nurse
A．Her aunt’s career example.
B．The MSF Academy training.
C．Her work as a companion.
D．The scholarship opportunity.
5. Which of the following words can best describe Anna according to paragraph 3 and paragraph 4
A．Skilled and ambitious.

C．The Global Reach of MSF’s Mission
D．Training Local Nurses through MSF
C
Imagine you are preparing a class presentation when you suddenly remember you forgot to feed the cat. You grab your phone to text your mum, but an ad jumps out: “50% off your favourite brand!” One tap leads to another; ten minutes later you have looked through reviews, filled a cart and almost missed your own slide. This phenomenon is called “popcorn (爆米花) brain”.
The term was introduced in 2011 by researcher David Levy from the University of Washington. It describes a mental state where attention wanders, and thoughts jump quickly from one topic to another — just like popcorn popping rapidly in a hot pan.
People with popcorn brain find it hard to concentrate or maintain a clear line of thinking. University of California Researcher Gloria Mark tracked 2,000 American office workers and students in her two-decade study on attention with silent screen recorders and heart-rate belts. In 2004 people stayed on one task for 2.5 minutes on average; by 2020 the figure had fallen to 47 seconds. Heart-rate data showed that every extra switch raised a stress hormone (荷尔蒙) by about 7%.
Studies show that digital technology, especially social media, worsens this condition. Data Reportal’s 2024 report pooled screen-time records from 1.3 million users in 40 countries and found further proof. For instance, people in America aged 16 — 24 averaged 7 hours 3 minutes online per day, equaling roughly 17 years of adult life. Such constant digital saturation trains the brain to prefer short bursts of information. As a result, focusing on one task becomes harder. Information overload also affects memory, decision-making, and emotional control.
The cure, tested in follow-up trials, is brief: set clear tech boundaries. Recommended strategies include limiting daily screen time, turning off non-essential notification, and creating tech-free periods or spaces. Building a structured daily routine is also advised: individuals can begin by measuring their current focus duration, then set realistic goals and stick to a fixed schedule for important tasks. This consistent practice strengthens habits and prepares your mind and body to focus on the task for a longer period without getting popcorn brain.
8. How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1
A．By defining a concept.
B．By providing statistics.
C．By giving an example.
D．By describing experiences.
9. What can be inferred from the data in Gloria Mark’s study
A．Attention on a task dropped half in decades.
B．Frequent switching may increase mental stress.
C．People’s average screen time decreased steadily.
D．Shortened screen time may lead to higher heart disease risk.
10. What does the underlined word “saturation” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Exposure.
B．Innovation.
C．Demand.
D．Security
11. According to the passage, what is suggested to prevent getting “popcorn brain”
A．Setting aside no-device areas.
B．Changing daily schedules flexibly.
C．Using more advanced digital devices.
D．Checking essential notification regularly.
D
Known for its role in Game of Thrones (《权力的游戏》), the dire wolf (冰原狼) went extinct over 10,000 years ago. Last April, the US company Colossal Biosciences announced its return, saying that, “for the first time in human history”, they had “restored a once-extinct species through the science of de-extinction”.
Scientists studied a 13,000-year-old dire wolf tooth and a 72,000-year-old ear bone and compared their genes to those of gray wolves to discover differences. Using cells from a gray wolf’s blood, the team edited the 14 key genes in the cells’ nuclei (核) to match those of the dire wolf. The edited nuclei were then put into surrogate (代孕的) dogs’ eggs and became embryos (胚胎), which were put into the dogs that later gave birth to three baby dire wolves.
Some scientists have criticized the project. Professor Nic Rawlence from the University of Otago in New Zealand questioned using fossil (化石) DNA, calling it too damaged to use. “Ancient DNA is like if you put fresh DNA in a 500 degree oven overnight, it comes out like dust,’ Rawlence said. He argued Colossal only created “a hybrid” a gray wolf with dire wolf features.
Colossal isn’t just reviving the dire wolf. Their list includes the woolly mammoth, dodo and Tasmanian tiger. But their mission goes beyond de-extinction: they use the same technique to prevent endangered species from disappearing. For example, they brought back four red wolves, an endangered species, using the same technique of restoring the dire wolf.
Colossal CEO Ben Lamm argues that genetic engineering is crucial to prevent the loss of the planet’s genetic diversity. “If we want a future that is both biodiverse and filled with people,” said Shapiro, Colossal’s chief science officer, “we should see what our big brains can do to reverse some of the bad things we’ve done.”
Yet some warn there could be consequences. Introducing new species can cause damage to native ones, while cloning often leads to health problems in animals and surrogates. As Rawlence told the BBC, “Extinction is still forever. If we don’t have extinction, how are we going to learn ”
12. How did scientists recreate the dire wolf
A．By using fossilized dire wolf embryos.
B．By crossbreeding gray wolves and dogs.
C．By cloning based on preserved dire wolf DNA.
D．By editing gray wolf genes and using surrogates.
13. What is Rawlence’s view of the project
A．It disturbs natural evolution.
B．It relies on outdated techniques.
C．It wastes valuable fossil resources.
D．It falsely claims a complete return of the dire wolf.
14. Why does the author mention red wolves
A．To illustrate the variety of revived species.
B．To highlight the importance of biodiversity.
C．To show Colossal’s broader conservation efforts.
D．To contrast with the dire wolf’s revival process.
15. What can be inferred about the project
A．It dismisses scientific criticism.
B．It poses potential ecological risks.
C．It is expected to end extinction soon.
D．It is likely to be copied by its competitors.

The gym was filled with noises — the bounce of basketballs, the creak of the wooden floor, and the hum of the teammates talking. It was game day, and my mind was in a mess. I should have been focused, ready, but my mind kept racing to places I didn’t want it to go.
For weeks, I’d been carrying the weight of something — anxiety disorder. It wasn’t the diagnosis (诊断) that bothered me, but the fear of what people would think if they knew. I didn’t want anyone to see how badly I was struggling.
I tried to shake the feeling and focus on the game.
“Eliot,” came a voice from behind me. It was Coach Rivera. I straightened up, trying to look like I was prepared, but it was hard. I could feel the familiar tension in my chest.
“You good ” He asked, his tone calm, but there was something else in it — concern, maybe, or an unspoken understanding. “I’m fine,” I said, forcing a smile that felt tight. I could tell he wasn’t buying it.
“Look, you’ve been different lately,” he said quietly, stepping closer. “I know something’s going on with you. You don’t have to hide it from me.” His eyes locked onto mine. My heart raced. I wanted to say something — anything to avoid the conversation — but the words wouldn’t come. There was no denying it — Coach Rivera had seen through me.
