一、
Today, I've been recording an audio book. I am excited that I have realized my life—long dream.
I will never forget at primary school I used to wait with breathless anticipation to take my turn reading out a paragraph of great works in front. At my secondary school, when students were encouraged to select and present a reading at "morning talk", I often added my name to the list.
This was all handy background for my career in broadcasting. But, much as I enjoy hosting shows and interviewing people, I often find myself missing the simple pleasures of reading out loud. I'd thought about putting myself forward as a narrator(朗讀者) for audio books. But I'm not an actor. I can't do regional accents or play female voice. Non-fiction, then, seemed the obvious target, but I felt that such books were best read by their authors. If it were authors' own voice, their stories would touch me.
Recently, delivering my son's nightly bedtime story has reawakened my love for reading out loud—highlights so far have included Charlotte's Web. But I never thought I'd get the opportunity to do it professionally.
Then, last month, I was contacted by James Plunkett, author of End State, a forthcoming book about political ideas. He had no desire to read his book out loud, but as a fan of my program, he thought I might do a reasonable job.
So, I've spent this week in a studio, simply reading stuff out loud. And I'm LOVING IT!
Obviously, it's an entirely unexpected experience. It's disheartening when the recording eeds to be stopped because I've just carelessly skipped over a 'the', or had to clear my throat, or catch my breath. I've also learned how many words I've been mispronouncing my entire life: behavioural is BE-HAYVE-YOU-RAL, not BE-HAYVE-EE-AH-RUL. Though tackling this 339-page book doesn't turn out to be that easy, I've found the whole process awesome, and hope this becomes the first of many.

One of my earliest memories is of getting keen on fishing in a stream near our house, and while I was standing there waiting for the fish to bite, I'd start noticing all the wildlife. I'd rush home and tell my parents all about the animals and birds I'd seen. Later on I learnt some from my uncle and I watched wildlife series on TV. Then I bought my first camera, and a photographer was born!
I'm busy all the time now that I'm better known, and I work spring, summer, autumn, winter, with hardly a break sometimes. I have to get the most out of each day, so I often find myself making notes for articles, or editing images, maybe, while waiting in a hide for a bird to appear. I try to be patient, but luckily there's usually nobody to hear if I get cross and start complaining to myself!
I've been working as a wildlife female photographer for ten years now and have a pretty strong reputation, though I say so myself. I use the most advanced cameras and lenses I can get hold of, but that doesn't make me different from any other professional photographer. And I put in lots of hours, but again, that's something we all have to do. I think what I'm known for is being able to come up with exceptional images in poor conditions. And wildlife is a popular area at the moment.
My range of clients varies from someone just wanting a picture to hang in their sitting room, to picture libraries and major wildlife charities. I've been fortunate enough to win a couple of international competitions. A while ago I spent ages checking the proofs of a book of what I think are my most beautiful photos—it's out in the shops now, in fact. Something I haven't done, which would be fun, is to travel round the country showing a selection of my images at local art galleries and libraries. I like the idea of the contact with the public. But who knows what else will occur to me?

His interest in Chinese language and characters dates from 1972, when Richard Sears, was a 22-year-old physics major at Portland State University in Oregon. To Sears, the characters were complex with many strokes(筆畫) and almost no apparent logic. But when he could get an explanation of a Chinese character’s original meaning and an interpretation of its pictographs(象形文字), it would suddenly become apparent how all the strokes had come to be. “I’m a physicist, so I don’t like blind memorization. I knew that Chinese characters came from pictographs and I wanted to know the stories behind the Chinese characters.”
As he studied, Sears found that many of the explanations were conflicting and even the experts were at odds. He decided to computerize the characters, so that he could separate good opinions from bad ones. He scanned about 96,000 ancient characters and established the database of them.
In 2002 he got his website up and named it Chinese Etymology, where visitors can check for free the development of Chinese characters in various forms, from the original pictographs to the modern simplified forms. The clicks to the website went up to 600,000 in one day. Overnight he became American Uncle Hanzi, a nickname(綽號) given by Chinese netizens.
Besides, he has explained the origin of 15,000 modern characters. For example, the character jia (home) has a rooftop and a pig underneath. In southern China where it rains a lot, people put their houses on stilts(木樁), so if it flooded, the inside of the house would not get wet. So, the pigs live underneath the house.
Last year, Sears set up his studio in Nanjing that focuses on applying AR, animation(動畫) and artificial intelligence to tell stories of Chinese culture and character origins. He has made over 60 such videos in English with Chinese subtitles for Bilibili, a video website. “They have both entertainment and educational value,” he says.
In the meantime, Sears has been updating the database. “My philosophy is huo dao lao xue dao lao.”

A. To make his life in China much easier.
B. To become an expert at Chinese characters.
C. To solve some related problems in physics.
D. To memorize Chinese characters more easily.
10.What does “were at odds” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Held different views. B. Showed no interest.
C. Had no doubt at all. D. Were under attack.
11.What did Sears do to tell the stories behind the Chinese characters?
A. He established a database for all the ancient Chinese characters.
B. He built a website about the development of Chinese characters’ forms.
C. He illustrated the structures of 15,000 modern Chinese characters.
D. He set up a studio to make videos about the stories of Chinese history.

B. A Chinese character website established by an American.
C. American Uncle Hanzi devoted to Chinese characters.

Dr. Ofri's new book, "Singular Intimacies: Becoming a Doctor at Bellevue," recounts her experiences as a doctor at New York's Bellevue Hospital. NPR's Melissa Block, host of All Things Considered, recently spent a day at the hospital to get a sense of her world, through her relationships with her patients.
Dr. Danielle Ofri is an attending physician in internal medicine at Bellevue. For her, poetry and literature are as much a part of the job as X-rays and pills. She's written about her experiences therein the book, Singular Intimacies: Becoming a Doctor at Belleue. It's a collection of essays About learning to listen to the narrative of her patients.

But Dr. Ofri also tries to inject another kind of language into the training; poetry. She carves out five minutes or so each day to gather with her interns and read a poem. She calls it her "literary rounds". Through these brief pauses in the day, she says she's giving her students "a chance to let the other part of their brain flower a little bit".

For one overseas student who has been in China for over a decade, learning the moves and culture associated with Chinese martial arts(武術(shù))has been his most valuable experience.
Souleymane Hima Oumarou, a Nigerien student at Hebei University in Baoding, Hebei province, first came to the university in 2012 as an undergraduate, not only for an education, but also to achieve his dream of learning the Chinese martial art of kung fu. He became a fan of kung fu after watching movies starring famous martial artists such as Jackie Chan and Jet Li.
During his studies in Baoding, Oumarou joined the university's martial arts association and studied under Duan Shuxing, one of the association's instructors. Following Duan's instructions, Oumarou began to practice basic moves in 2015, including Eight Extremities Fist, or bajiquan, as well as the associated art of tai chi.

I was fortunate to spend every summer camping with my parents when I was a kid. By the age of 18, I’d visited every province in my home country of Canada. Even today I can still recall an impressive tour vividly.
It took us six people a long time to drive to Newfoundland from Ontario. When we arrived on the island, it poured rain every day. We just kept driving north, hoping to outrun it. We jumped on a ferry to Labrador Peninsula, crossing the Strait of Belle Isle, and moved our way up the coast of this northerly and thinly-populated region.
The scenery in Labrador is beautiful. We saw long white sand beaches along the Atlantic coast that looked inviting, but the water was cold year-round. While standing at the top of a lighthouse, my dad said, “This will be the new Caribbean once global warming hits. ’’
We soon discovered Battle Harbor, a historic fishing village that can only be reached by ferry. In the mid-1800s it had a population of 350 people and was considered the unofficial capital of Labrador. Now it was more like a deserted town, and I distinctly remember feeling the furthest from anything that I’ve ever felt. Multiple ferry rides and 600 miles separated me from the nearest major city of St. John’s.
If you’re curious about Newfoundland & Labrador (NL),I highly recommend a 2013 film called The Grand Seduction. It’s a delightful comedy about a small fishing village called Tickle Head that’s struggling to figure out its future.
Travelling made me get to know my country so well, which has had a tremendous influence on shaping the person I am now. I hold a solid mental picture of Canada, stretching from sea to sea, which I’ve taken with me to other parts of the world because I have great passion for it.
21.Which of the following was the author’s tour route?

22.What does the author think of Battle Harbor?
A.It is naturally appealing. B.It is remote and lonely.
C. It gives a sense of belonging. D.It is unique and peaceful.
23.Why does the author recommend the movie The Grand Seduction^,
A.It is mostly set in NL.
B.It describes NL in detail.

24.How does the author’s travelling influence him?

Daniel Brush, an astonishing worker in gold, jewels and steel died on November 2022, aged 75. Students from a jewellery school once came to Brush's studio, a loft in mid-Manhattan, awed to be meeting a figure who, to them, was a worker of miracles.
For 45 years in that loft, he had pursued his calling. His wife Olivia was the only company. He produced hundreds of objects of all sorts, most of them exquisite and many astonishingly small. Rather than use electricity, he laboured alone in a forest of antique machines and when tools frustrated him he made his own, displaying them in cupboards as art in themselves.
Above all else, he worked in gold. His obsession took fire when at 13 he saw an Etruscan gold bowl in the Victoria and Albert Museum. The ancient technique of applying gold beads as fine as sand-grains to a curved gold surface without solder (焊接)， was stunning, but so was the lightness of spirit.
He resolved then that he would make such a bowl, and gold became the study of his life. Simply to watch it melt, turn to red-hot and white-hot, then glow purple, was magical. To hold pure gold grain and let it move slowly through his fingers restored his calm of spirit. His chief motivation, he said, was to understand the material and, through that, himself. He wondered why his heart had beaten so fast in the museum that day. Gold in particular had a message for him. His contact with this glorious metal might focus all his attention and help him to hear it.
He developed delicate craftsmanship, with each object virtually a museum piece. For Daniel Brush, he loved the idea that one might take a piece made by Brush out of a pocket, let its beauty pass from mind to mind, and smile. That too was what its maker was after.
25.What can we learn about Daniel Brush?
A. Students visited him regularly.
B. He began to live in his loft in 1975.
C. He tended to use ancient crafts to produce objects.
D. Most objects he produced were of a surprisingly small size.
26.What is the main reason for his lifelong study of gold?
A. He wanted to learn more about both gold and himself.
B. He wondered why his heart had beat fast in the museum
C. His calm was restored when gold grain moved through fingers
D. Gold had a particular message for him and he was eager to hear it.
27.Which of the following can best describe Daniel Brush?
A. Stubborn. B.Wealthy. C.Dedicated. D.Lonely.
28.What does the author try to emphasize in the last paragraph?
A. Brush's valuable works.
B. The admirers Brush expected.
C. Brush's desire for fame.
D. The artistic ideal Brush pursued.

In his first public appearance in Boston, many fans crowded to the field when he scored, causing him injury and being carried from the field of play on a stretcher(擔(dān)架). Pele's last professional match took place in August 1977, with Pele scoring his last goal, a free kick for Cosmos, from thirty yards.
Following his retirement from football, Pele dedicated his life to ambassador(大使) work, being appointed UN ambassador for ecology and the environment in 1992 and UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador in 1994. University of Edinburgh awarded him an honorary degree for his contribution to humanitarian and environmental causes, as well as his sporting achievements, and an honorary knighthood followed, with Queen Elizabeth II presenting the honor in 1997.
