Amazed, I looked at the cars around me to be sure that we were all seeing the same thing. Every driver fixed his attention on the couple.

Global Summer Camp Stories—Share your experience! Posted on 1st June, 2026 9:30 am
Lily If you’re a high school student (9th grade and above) looking for an amazing summer experience that’s both fun and rewarding, let me tell you about EPGY Summer Institutes—run by Stanford University.This three-week program is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, and I can’t recommend it enough!
What I love most about EPGY is the variety of courses it offers—there’s truly something for everyone, whether you’re into writing, computer programming, math, or even law. There is definitely one for you!
As someone who’s attended this program for two years in a row, I can say that I looked forward to it every summer. My days there followed a nice, balanced routine: after breakfast, we’d head to class. I took Creative Writing and Expository Writing during my two years, and both were incredible in their own way.
In Creative Writing, we wrote poems and short stories and shared our works with our peers, giving each other constructive feedback. We even dove into analyzing short stories by famous authors like Ray Bradbury. Expository Writing was just as great—it gave me the chance to practice writing all kinds of pieces, from memoirs about my own life to persuasive essays and even book reviews.
“All work and no play ” Don’t worry—EPGY gets it! There are tons of fun activities to choose from, so you’ll never be bored. You can sign up for sports teams like basketball or flag football, or try something more relaxing like yoga or swimming. I even tried jewelry making one day, which was way more fun than I expected!
Now, let’s talk about the application process—you need to fill out an application early, so don’t wait until the last minute! You’ll also need to submit your report cards, unless you’re an international student. Of course, there’s an application fee, but the good news is that EPGY offers scholarships for students who have financial difficulties.
These summer experiences are the most precious memories in my life, because I have learned and grown. They are filled with so much fun, so many new skills, and lifelong friendships.

When you live a long time with trees, they become part of you. So it pained me to cut down the old sugar maple, my mental home.
The tree was old when we moved to the farm 36 years ago—we figured she was about 160, the same age as our farmhouse. She had a personality: not straight and narrow, branches extending this way and that. I felt privileged to live under her for so many years.
But she’d been damaged by heavy rains and then drought. Summers were hotter, winters were not as cold. The forester said climate change likely made her more susceptible to fungus. She wasn’t alone: ash trees were killed by beetles; native dogwoods were dying of fungus; hemlocks were attacked by insects. Woods that were once woods are becoming fields again.
We watched her die slowly. “She’s not doing well,” my husband said. Then one season, her entire left side began to fall—some branches crashing onto the house, bark everywhere. Even the birds left. They knew the branches were no longer safe.
Still, I begged for a little longer—I was too attached to her. My children grew up beside her; animals ran and jumped around her; black bears wandered by; and at night I watched the moon circle above her. She was more than a tree—she was a village.
I wondered what she’d seen in 160 years: horses and buggies, log-house farmers, snowy winters, more birds, insects, and bats (now nearly gone). Darker skies, brighter stars; she watched us dig the pond, modernize the house, and change the land. Like my wrinkles, her roots held the story of years gone by—blessed and painful.
My husband cut her down. But that wasn’t the end. Neighbors urged me to repurpose her, so I turned to Corey Snyder, whose business card reads “Turn it, don’t burn it.” A few months later, Snyder gave me three beautiful honey-colored bowls—one for each of our family members. The most unique one had a “bark inclusion,” a dark brown mushroom-shaped mark from a damaged branch. When I asked how he chose their forms, he said, “I let the wood dictate.” The old maple had spoken.
Now, instead of looking up at her, I hold her in my hands. The smooth, light bowls are her second life. She will stay here, rooted deep in my heart.
41. What does the underlined word “privileged” in Para.2 probably mean
A．Feared.
B．Elegant.
C．Fortunate.
D．Stressed.
42. What does the author try to tell us in Paras. 3and 4
A．The dying process of the old tree and the poor condition of other trees.
B．The warning signals of climate change and their influences on people.
C．The typical origin of the species and their life styles on the old tree.
D．The shortage of trees on the farm and the changes in nearby areas.
43. What can we infer from Paras. 5 and 6
A．The author had a deep emotional connection with the old sugar maple.
B．The tree was finally turned into a home for the animals living around it.
C．The tree was cut down by the author’s husband and her neighbors.
D．The author promised her children to save the old sugar maple.
44. The old sugar maple was made into three bowls mainly to _____.
A．inspire people to protect the environment by reusing waste
B．express the author’s worries about extreme climate change
C．keep the memories of the tree alive in a new form
D．stop people from destroying the environment
45. What probably is the best title of the passage

B．Turn It, Don’t Burn It
C．Save trees, save nature
D．My old sugar maple

These days, artificial intelligence or AI, is showing up everywhere in our daily life. What sets AI apart from earlier technologies AI can perform tasks that only humans used to do, and it works at high speed. The current global interest in AI really began in November 2022, when OpenAI released ChatGPT. As the first chatbot of its kind, capable of performing a wide variety of tasks, it quickly captured the public’s imagination and became the fastest-growing app with 100 million users in just two months.
What Is AI
AI is technology that helps machines do complex tasks that are typically associated with human intelligence, such as learning and problem-solving. When people talk about AI today, they mostly mean generative AI—a type of AI system that can create writing, images, videos and computer code. AI chatbots are powered by large language models trained on huge amounts of language data. They work as pattern-analyzing machines, predicting the next proper words to answer questions. AI can copy human speech, but it does not truly think or have self-awareness like the smart robots in movies.
What Can You Do with AI
AI has many practical uses. It can organize information, explain difficult ideas simply, and create plans. It can also work with images and videos, helping people solve daily problems. For students, AI is a great creative partner. It can brainstorm ideas, polish homework, improve resumes, and help with study plans. Many people use AI to make weekly schedules, design workout plans, or even create picture books for children.
Tips for Using AI
There is no best AI tool, so you can try different platforms such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude. The key to using AI well is giving specific and clear prompts（指令）. Avoid asking too broadly. Break big tasks into small steps and provide enough background information. The quality of AI’s answer depends mostly on your request.
What to Watch Out For
AI has clear weaknesses. It may make up false information, so you should not depend on it for health or legal advice. Spending too much time on AI may lead to loneliness and less reallife communication. There are also privacy risks, because personal information shared with AI may not be safe. In addition, some AI-generated pictures and videos look real and can mislead people.
AI is a tool created by humans. We should use it wisely and properly. AI can become a helpful partner in study and daily life.
46. Why did AI attract worldwide attention rapidly after November 2022
A．It developed more rapidly.
B．It was used in digital products.
C．It took the place of human beings.
D．A new intelligent chatbot came out.
47. What can we know about AI from Para. 2
A．It has the same thinking ability as human beings.
B．It owns real consciousness like the robots in films.
C．It works out answers by studying language patterns.
D．It produces language materials for the world on its own.
48. Why does the author explain the use of AI to readers
A．To show AI is the most advanced technology in the world.
B．To illustrate the practical value of AI in different areas.
C．To prove AI can replace human’s work in daily life.
D．To emphasize the necessity of using AI at school.
49. What is the most important thing when we use AI properly
A．Trying different AI platforms.
B．Avoiding asking general questions.
C．Offering detailed and clear instructions.
D．Picking the best and most famous AI products.
50. Which of the following is a possible danger of overusing AI
A．Losing interest in communicating with real people.
B．Making people lack the ability to use computers.
C．Keeping our personal information protected.
D．Leading people toward a brand-new life path.

Imagine this jar is your life.
Take the jar and fill it with rocks. Is the jar full It certainly looks that way, doesn't it Well, now add some pebbles, smaller than the rocks. Give the jar a shake. The pebbles all fit in the spaces in the jar. Is the jar full now Again, it does seem so. But...
Now let’s add some sand. Look! We can fit quite a bit of sand in there, can’t we Surely the jar has to be full now, right Here’s a cup of tea. Pour it slowly... Look at that. It fits into the jar, too!
Let’s think about this. There’s only one jar: that is the one life you have. It’s a life where you can do anything, if you spend your time well. The rocks are the most important things in your life: your family, your friends, your health, your hopes and dreams. The pebbles They are the other important things you need to keep your life going: your job, your house, things like that. What about the sand The sand is all the little things in life, the annoying things that distract you and take up so much of your time if you’re not careful.
What would happen if you put the sand in the jar first You’d never have room for the pebbles, let alone the rocks. In the same way, if you waste your time worrying about all the small things in life, you’ll never have time for the things that are really important to you. So, concentrate on the important things first. Don’t worry about the small stuff!
And the tea That’s easy. No matter how busy you are in life, you should always find time to have a cup of tea and a talk with a good friend!

Treat Others as You Want to Be Treated —A lesson for life
The famous saying “Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you” means we should treat others the way we hope to be treated. It teaches us kindness, respect and understanding in interpersonal communication.
This principle guides me in my daily life. I hate being interrupted while studying, so I always listen carefully when my classmates share ideas. Whenever my classmates meet with study difficulties, I am willing to offer help patiently instead of ignoring them.
This principle is of great importance. At school, it helps us get along well with classmates and build a harmonious campus atmosphere. In society, it reduces conflicts and promotes mutual respect among people. As teenagers, we should keep this lesson in mind and practice it all the time to make our world warmer and more harmonious.
