Helping Elephants Live more Happily On Sep. 7, 2025, in the Yok Don National Park of Vietnam, two elephants took a shower as their keepers stood nearby. In the past, people in Vietnam often rode elephants for work and fun. So many elephants got hurt. Over time, there were fewer and fewer elephants left. Luckily, the park is working with Animals Asia, a charity organization. Together, they are helping elephants live happily. Now, elephants can walk around freely. There is also a special center for them to rest. This helps elephants to live longer. ___________________ Manette Baillie from the UK skydived (跳伞) out of a plane on Aug. 25, 2025. She did this to celebrate her birthday. This made the 102-year-old the oldest British skydiver. Baillie said the skydiving was a little scary. However, she chose to do this to get old people to “stay active”. She found many people close to her had health problems. Baillie also did it to help raise money for people in need. It’s not the first time that she has done exciting sports in her old age. Walking for Water Students from Clarence Middle School in New York took part in the 2025 Walk for Water event. They helped raise money to bring clean water to people in Uganda. During the event, students walked a mile with heavy jugs (罐) full of water. In Uganda, children walk a long way to get water. “The water walk is just giving you an idea of what they have to do every day,” Zach said. In 2024, the school helped set up a rainwater facility at the local school in Uganda, which gives clean water to 21 teachers and about 480 students.

As the days are getting colder, you might wish you could magically turn into a bear and spend the winter sleeping. Actually, scientists are looking for ways to let humans hibernate (冬眠), too!
During hibernation, an animal’s heart rate (心率) and breathing slow down. They can save energy when there’s little food in the winter months.
Japanese researchers have found the secret behind hibernation—the “Q neurons (神经元) ”. These neurons in animals’ brains can put them into a hibernation state. The researchers also did surgeries (手术) after turning on the mice’s “Q neurons”. It turned out that the surgeries caused less damage (伤害) to them during their hibernation.
According to the team, humans’“ Q neurons” cannot be turned on and off as easily as the mice’s. But they are confident in copying the mice’s hibernation in humans. That means we could let people in surgery “hibernate”, causing less damage to their bodies.
In recent years, more scientists are waking up to what hibernation can bring. For example, US scientist Katherine Grabek found that when the thirteen-lined ground squirrel (多纹黄鼠) hibernates, it cleans out harmful brain plaques (斑块) that are related to Alzheimer’s in humans. They hope to produce medicine for humans based on this finding.
Some studies on other animals showed that their bodies age more slowly during hibernation. This also provides new ideas for making humans live longer in the future. “New Scientist” magazine says.
31.Which question does Paragraph 2 try to answer
A. Where do animals hibernate
B. Can humans hibernate like animals
C. What is needed for hibernation
D. What are the good points of hibernation
32.What have Japanese researchers found
A. The difficulties in surgeries.
B. Hibernation may work in surgeries.
C. Ways to hibernate in surgeries.
D. New discoveries about human brains.
33.What can we know from Paragraph 5
A. Hibernation only does good to animals.
B. Animals and humans get the same illness.
C. Hibernation may help reduce health risks.
D. Animals can be used for making medicine.
34.What does New Scientist magazine want to show
A. People can hibernate at any time.
B. Hibernation does human bodies no damage.
C. Hibernation is a good idea in winter.
D. People may hibernate to slow down aging.
35.What is the writing purpose of this passage
A. To share findings on hibernation.
B. To show achievements in surgeries.
C. To introduce hibernation.
D. To present new ways of doing surgeries.
C
Full of energy, the world-famous Chinese conductor (指挥) Zheng Xiaoying, 97, still shines on stage. On Oct. 15, two of her works were shown on TV in the US, said China News. Zheng is the first woman opera and symphony (交响乐) conductor in China. She is also the first Chinese conductor to perform at an opera house in other countries.

She has fought against a serious illness over the last 20 years. But nothing can stop her from standing on the stage once again.

A. By performing it many times. B. By teaching them theater manners.
C. By giving them a speech. D. By letting them keep silent.
