After their three children grew up and left home, Margaret Thompson and her husband, Kenneth, stretched their legs together on walking holidays in Switzerland. In Interlaken, year after year, they would head up the mountain and watch the paragliders (空中滑翔) launch themselves into the sky. Back in town, in a large park, they watched them return to earth. “Some day I’d love to do that,” Thompson told Kenneth.
But there was always so much to do in Interlaken. So she continued to watch the gliders take flight and land. Kenneth died in 2005. Eleven years later, and three decades after those walking holidays, Thompson finally took to the skies herself, in a paraglider with an instructor. Thompson was 80.
Recently, Thompson heard from an instructor that grown men, when airborne, sometimes cry and beg to be brought down. But what she remembers is “feeling free. You feel weightless. It’s quite windy. It blows you around. You sail along and look around you, and see all the toy houses down below. You feel like you are up in heaven somewhere there, watching everyone down below.”
Thirty years seems a long time to hold on to a dream. “It was,” she says. Why did it take so long “I wanted to do it, but I felt somebody should benefit from it.” She did not think of just enjoying the experience “I don’t think so. There had to be a cause at the end of it all,” she says. With her first paraglide, she raised ￡1,500 for Moorfields eye hospital in London, most of it with the aid of social clubs run by the Presbyterian church she regularly attends.
Is she scared of getting older “Fear No. People say: ‘Isn’t getting old awful ’ I say: ‘No. You are free to do more things that you want to do.”
Thompson felt no fear paragliding. “I mean, you sort of say to yourself: Well, if anything happens to me now, I’m OK. People might worry about falling, it being the end of them. But that didn’t bother me at all. When it’s your time, it’s your time. No matter where you are.”

Podcasting (播客) has grown rapidly in recent years, gaining popularity among people who wish to make good use of their time while walking, working, or relaxing. Among its listeners is Leo, a 26-year-old librarian who once found his daily commute (通勤) extremely dull. He frequently killed time by watching meaningless short videos, which left him feeling even more tired and empty afterward.
One day, a friend recommended a podcast featuring inspiring real-life stories. Leo was immediately drawn to it. Unlike short videos, podcasts require focused listening and enable listeners to picture scenes with their own imagination. This active mental participation felt refreshing to Leo. He soon formed a habit of listening for 30 minutes on each journey to and from his workplace, turning previously wasted hours into something meaningful.
He soon made it a daily rule. At first, Leo worried that he would lose interest soon, as he had never been able to concentrate on long audio (音频) shows before. However, the stories were so attractive that he gradually began to look forward to his daily listening time. He explored a wide range of topics, including history, personal experiences, and popular science.
As time went by, Leo became more focused at work and at home, and he gained fresh insights from what he listened muting no longer felt like a tiring burden; instead, he regarded it as a valuable chance for self-improvement. He even began taking brief notes to memorize useful knowledge, such as historical facts or practical life tips, which he later reviewed during breaks.
Leo also shared his favorite podcasts with colleagues and friends. They started exchanging ideas and holding discussions about what they had learned, making his daily life more enriched and satisfying.
“Podcasts transform wasted time into meaningful learning,” Leo commented. “It is incredible how much we can gain simply by listening with full attention.” For him, what once felt like dead hours have now become a journey of continuous learning and curiosity.

D．Pressure that Leo suffered.
11. What message does the author convey
A．Break out of your shell.
B．Change a habit, change your life.
C．Think twice before you act.
D．Master time, master your future.

My name is Nasilele, and I am from Zambia. For the past two years, I have served as a UN peacekeeper in the Central African Republic (CAR). Before this, I was a pilot in my country’s army, a job I deeply enjoyed. Though Zambia is peaceful, I knew many African countries suffered from violent conflicts. I felt it my duty to help innocent people caught in the crossfire (交火), so I joined the United Nations.
The CAR, a small nation of five million, has faced instability since gaining independence from France in the 1950s. Conflicts between the government and rebel (造反的) groups, and even between the army and political leaders, have plagued (困扰) the country. In 2012, a civil war broke out, fueled mainly by clashes between different religions and ethnic groups. Over one million people fled their homes, and many lost their lives. In response, the UN set up a peacekeeping mission there in 2014. Our tasks include protecting civilians, helping the government restore stability, and supporting locals in rebuilding their lives.
Working here is far from easy. Based in the capital Bangui, we often travel to remote villages. Roads are in terrible condition, making trips long and difficult. The climate is hot and humid, and diseases are common. We also stay alert, as armed groups still exist in some areas.
Still, I believe my work matters. I have seen how our presence reduced violence in some regions. We have built schools and hospitals, and provided food and medicine to those in need. Though I miss my family in Zambia, I know I am doing something meaningful. I hope the CAR’s people will one day live in lasting peace, and I will be proud to have been part of that journey.
12. Why did Nasilele become a UN peacekeeper
A．To work for a higher salary.
B．To escape his army pilot job.
C．To help conflict-affected people.
D．To explore different African life.
13. Which can best replace the underlined word “clashes” in paragraph 2
A．Cooperations.
B．Conflicts.
C．Negotiations.
D．Compromises.
14. How does Nasilele find working in the CAR
A．Tough and dangerous.
B．Bitter and annoying.
C．Easy and convenient.
D．Pleasant and colorful.
15. What does Nasilele’s experience show
A．To give is better than to receive.
B．Actions speak louder than words.
C．What goes around comes around.
D．Where there is a will, there is a way.
