Like many cities acrss the United States, Prtland, Oregn faces a hmelessness crisis. Accrding t the city’s 2023 Pint-in-Time Cunt, verall hmelessness in Prtland increased by 65% frm 2015 t 2023, with peple living unsheltered in the streets jumping t an estimated 6,297 individuals, cmpared t 1,887 eight years befre. This munting prblem requires plenty f creative slutins. Waste management wrkers with Grund Scre Assciatin (GSA) have fund that slutin thrugh trash.
GSA is a Prtland nnprfit created by—and fr—peple wh are experiencing r have experienced hmelessness. The grup is fiscally supprted by Trash Fr Peace and manages an assciatin f recyclers, waste pickers, and ther envirnmental wrkers wh create and fill waste management jbs in the city.
The initiative hires peple with a histry f hmelessness t pick up waste alngside designated rutes, prvide tent-side trash cllectin t peple living utside, and mre. Wrkers are paid between $20 and $29 per hur by the City f Prtland, Multnmah Cunty, and the Llyd Enhanced Services District. Despite appraching budget cuts acrss the city, fficials say the initiative is valuable.
Katie Lindsay, a prgram analyst fr Prtland wh versees GSA’s cntract, stated, “Yu’re ging t get significant utcmes fr the lwest f dllars. There are increasingly shrinking resurces in an unending vat f need. This ges s far. Why wuldn’t yu fund it?”
Accrding t GSA’s website, the prgram has directly hired 55 members f the cmmunity, ver 95% f whm were frmerly r currently are huseless. Since having started wrking fr GSA, ver 70% f thse wrkers have becme hused.
C-funded by Barbra Weber, GSA came int existence when she was living in a tent encampment a few years back. Many f her neighbrs earned cash frm cllecting cans and bttles, but she knew they needed mre funding and rganizatin t really see a difference.
Nw, GSA nt nly has a cntract with the city, but it als prvides supprtive scial benefits fr its emplyees, like healthcare, mental health services, and acquiring husing and legal identificatin.

A gd night’s sleep des mre than just help yu feel rested — it might literally clear yur mind. A new study shws hw deep sleep may wash away waste build-up in the brain during waking hurs, an essential prcess fr maintaining brain health.
Scientists have knwn that the brain has a built-in waste remval system, called the glymphatic (膠質(zhì)淋巴的) system, which circulates fluid in the brain and spinal crd t clear ut waste. This prcess helps remve pisnus prteins that frm sticky plaques (斑塊) linked t neurlgical disrders. Hwever, what drives this system has remained unclear, until nw.
Danish scientists fund that a mlecule called nrepinephrine (去甲腎上腺素) plays a key rle in the brain’s cleaning in mice. During deep sleep, the brainstem releases tiny waves f nrepinephrine abut nce every 50 secnds. Nrepinephrine causes bld vessels (血管) t cntract, generating slw pulsatins that create a rhythmic flw in the surrunding fluid t carry waste away.
“It’s like turning n the dishwasher befre yu g t bed and waking up with a clean brain,” says senir authr Maiken Nedergaard f the University f Cpenhagen. “We’re essentially asking what drives this prcess and trying t define restrative sleep based n glymphatic clearance.”
T find clues, Nedergaard and her team lked int what happens in mice when the brain sleeps. Specifically, they fcused n the relatinship between nrepinephrine and bld flw during deep slumber. They fund that nrepinephrine waves relate t variatins in brain bld vlume, suggesting nrepinephrine causes a rhythmic pulsatin in the bld vessels.
Researchers have bserved similar nrepinephrine waves, bld flw patterns, and brain fluid flux in humans. Their findings may ffer insights int hw pr sleep may cntribute t neurlgical disrders like Alzheimer’s disease.
“Nw that we knw nrepinephrine is driving the cleaning f the brain, we may figure ut hw t get peple a lng and restrative sleep,” says Nedergaard.
8.What is the functin f the glymphatic system?
A.T regulate bld flw.B.T clear brain waste.
C.T cntrl brain vlume.D.T release nrepinephrine.
9.Hw did Nedergaard state the prcess f brain cleaning?
A.By analyzing data.B.By citing prir study.
C.By asking questins.D.By making a cmparisn.
10.What is paragraph 5 mainly abut?
A.Bld vlume variatins.
B.Nrepinephrine waves’ discvery.
C.The research prcess and findings.
D.The imprtance f sleep fr the brain.
11.What will researchers d next?
A.Figure ut hw t imprve sleep quality.
B.Study the rle f nrepinephrine in humans.
C.Identify the causes f neurlgical disrders.
D.Explre the link between sleep and brain health.
A team f marine scientists frm the University f Sydney has published the first peer-reviewed study dcumenting the shcking cral bleaching (白化) events that ccurred n the suthern Great Barrier Reef in early 2024.
Led by Prfessr Maria Byrne frm the Schl f Life and Envirnmental Sciences, the research highlights the alarming impact f unprecedented marine heatwaves n cral ecsystems, raising urgent cncerns fr marine bidiversity and the cmmunities that depend n these vital ecsystems.
The study prvides critical insights int the extent f cral bleaching and mrtality (死亡率) during the 2023-2024 glbal marine heatwave. The research team carefully tracked the health f 462 cral clnies at the University f Sydney’s Great Barrier Reef research statin at One Tree Island ver a perid f 161 days.
The results revealed that 66 percent f the clnies were bleached by February 2024 and 80 per cent by April. By July, 44 percent f the bleached clnies had died, with sme cral genera, such as Acrpra, experiencing a shcking 95 percent mrtality rate.
“This research is a wake-up call fr plicymakers and cnservatinists. The resilience (恢復(fù)力) f cral reefs is being tested like never befre, and we must priritise strategies that enhance their ability t withstand climate change. Our findings underscre the need fr immediate and effective management interventins t safeguard these ecsystems,” said Byrne.
The research als highlights the cmplex interplay between heat stress, disease nset and cral mrtality. Ntably, Gnipra crals develped black band disease, cntributing t the high mrtality rates bserved. The study emphasises that the rapid nset f bleaching and disease in crals previusly cnsidered resilient pses significant challenges fr predicting the future cmpsitin f cral reef ecsystems in a warming wrld.
The implicatins f this research extend beynd the eclgy and cnservatin. Cral reefs ffer essential services t human cmmunities, including fisheries, turism, and castal prtectin. As the Great Barrier Reef faces increasing threats frm climate change, the study calls fr a cllabrative apprach t cnservatin that invlves lcal cmmunities, scientists, and plicymakers.
12.Hw may marine scientists react t the result f the research?
A.Alarmed.B.Surprised.C.Indifferent.D.Disappinted.
13.What did Byrne want t cnvey in paragraph 5?
A.The need fr mre research n cral bleaching.
B.The imprtance f cral reefs fr marine bidiversity.
C.The urgency fr immediate management interventins.
D.The resilience f cral reefs in the face f climate change.
14.What des the research suggest abut the future f cral reefs?
A.They will recver quickly.
B.Their fate will cunt n human prtectin.
C.They will be free frm climate change.
D.They will benefit frm human activities.
15.What can be the best title fr the text?
A.The Beauty f the Great Barrier Reef
B.Strategies fr Cral Reef Cnservatin
C.A New Methd fr Studying Cral Bleaching

It was a sunny afternn when I first heard the whispers.
I was the mst ppular girl in my schl. I had a lt f friends, and I had a best friend, Isabella. Yu might think she was the secnd mst ppular girl in schl, but apparently she was nt. I had a lt f admirers, which made sme peple very eager fr my ppularity, like Jess. But she tried everything t embarrass me. Once, I saw her crying in the classrm, and I was surprised by her difficulty, s I tried t talk t her, but she was still crying, smehw luder. Sn, peple entered the classrm fr the class, and Jess quickly started saying things ludly like “Please frgive me, Amy! I will definitely make yur hmewrk better next time!” I was s shcked!
The laughter that nce ccurred in the schl crridrs had turned int a lw whisper. Peple I nce called friends began t drift away. Every interactin felt like navigating a minefield (雷區(qū)) except Isabella, wh didn’t leave me. My messages in grup chats went unanswered. During class, the seat next t me sat empty. A heavy feeling came ver me, like smething pressing n my chest. I tried t ignre the wrds, but they seemed like an invisible shadw, fllwing me wherever I went. Actually, peple just didn’t knw me — they nly saw the surface and thught I was just a girl having duble faces. What they didn’t knw was that I had been studying gd manners at a yung age, day after day, year after year.
My lneliness was getting deeper and deeper, but n ne seemed t understand. One particularly painful afternn, I lcked myself in my rm as sn as I gt hme. I lay in bed, n my stmach, tears streaming silently dwn my cheeks.
