“
“
The water will turn to steam, which will power cars.”
Yeah, that's a really cool idea.”
This conversation is part of a lesson about technologies that reduce planet-heating pollution. It was
lectured, in a brand-new way, by Kirstin Milks, a science teacher at Bloomington High School.
Climate change is the story of today's young people's lives. But Milks says, “Our students need to
know not just the stuff we hear about in the news, but also the actual difference we can make in our shared
future.” So, she teaches in such an innovative way.
Creativity is at the core of her lesson. After students learn the basics of climate engineering, which
covers a range of strategies, including reflecting sunlight back into space and removing carbon dioxide from
the atmosphere, they’ re asked to“come up with interesting wild ideas” to slow global warming. In the first
round of brainstorming, students imagined lots of ways to reflect light back into the atmosphere, like
covering the desert in shiny glitter (发光物). Next, students are asked to consider the potential limitations
and risks to their ideas. Take glitter in the desert, for example:“How are we going to make sure that the
glitter doesn't get eaten by the rock pocket mouse or snakes?” Milks asks. The student suggests making the
glitter large and smooth enough so it won't be eaten by animals or otherwise harm them. For their final
assignment, students present their concepts, including their anticipated benefits and risks.
Ben Kravitz, an assistant professor at Indiana University, who carefully watch the whole lesson, says,
“
The neat thing about seeing all of these ideas come out of the classroom is it's not I can't do it. It's we can
do it. Humans, when they get together, can do amazing things. And that's what gives me hope.”

For millions of years, bees, moths and other pollinators have used scents(香气) to locate flowers
and transfer pollen(花粉) to any flowers they later visit. But something is changing today. When the
scents of flowers interact with certain air pollutants(污染物) at night, key scents are destroyed. Moths
and other nighttime pollinators may find it hard to recognize the flowers they were seeking, researchers
show.
The Seattle team conducted field and lab tests with a plant — the pale evening primrose. Ecologist
Jeremy Chan put bags over pale evening primroses to trap the flowers’ scent. Then he took the scent
back to the lab, along with some moths. They released the primrose scent and moths into a wind tunnel
that could mimic conditions in an outdoor field. At once, they watched the moths easily flying straight
upwind and tracking the scent. But it was different when pollutants, like ozone and nitrogen dioxide,
were added to the mix. Now, the moths flew in a“Z” line. They seemed to be seeking the scent — often
without success.
The team then decided to test its findings in nature at night. The result was the same. When this
scent was mixed with the pollutants, moths’ visits dropped. Some moths even never found a single
flower during the tests. Besides, the same reactions could hurt flowers’ scents by day. But because
sunlight can break down ozone, the problem is likely more serious for night pollinators.
As Earth’ s climate warms, it’ s likely that a mix of pollutants will continue to climb. Such
conditions could worsen the pollution threat to flowers' scents and plant pollination. “As we know,
pollination is important to food growers”, noted Joel Thornton. He’ s an atmospheric scientist in the
team. He said pollution could pose a new type of threat to farming.

8. Why do moths have trouble finding out flowers today?
A. Flowers' scents interrupt moth.
B. Pollutants affect flowers' scents.
C. Flowers are not available at night.
D. Flowers are changing their scents.

9. How did the researchers get the findings?
A. By monitoring moths' behaviors.B. By detecting the primrose scent.
C. By analyzing the types of pollutants.D. By comparing scents with pollutants.

A. Amusing.
B. Promising. C. Satisfying. D. Worrying.
1. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

Are you eyebrow blind? TikTok users seem to think so— many have complained on the
platform about makeup wearers’ apparent inability to spot whether they’ re blindly following
makeup trends or wearing what looks good on their faces. Though“eyebrow blindness” and other
types of“beauty blindness” aren't exactly considered mental health trouble, people's tendency to
follow trends— even when they look silly or take risks doing so— is definitely a real phenomenon.
So, what does psychology say about trend following? First, following trends isn't a sign of
character weakness or mental health trouble. Instead, says psychologist Pamela B. Rutledge, it’ s
perfectly normal. The reason for trend following relates to humans’ core need to belong to a social
group and connect with others. Multiple psychological frameworks argue that human connections
are as important as basics like access to food and shelter because humans evolved (进化) to rely on
one another for survival.
But why do trends themselves have such a pull?“Our brains are hardwired to notice what's
unusual,” Rutledge says. Thus, we notice outliers and attention-grabbers, making trends even more
appealing for those bold enough to follow them.
No one is exempt from following crazes, noticing trends, or signaling their real belonging to
social groups. But one group in particular is even easier to follow trends— even risky ones: Tweens,
teens, and young adults. As children start the road toward adult independence, they look for ways to
express their individuality. This can produce sometimes desperate attempts to prove affiliation(隶属
关系) with socially credible in-groups and can fuel desire to stand out with the help of trends.
So, next time you put on makeup— or get dressed, order a meal in public, or purchase a
vehicle— consider that your decision may not be as personalized as you may think. “It's really just
an inborn response, one that can be explained by our need to fit in with or stand out from the
crowd.” says Rutledge.

余选项。
What Does Our Body Language Reveal
3
6
People tend to judge us far more on our physical appearance, including our
mannerisms, than by what comes out of our mouths. To give the right impression, it's important to
understand what we are conveying non-verbally and how our unconscious signals are being
received by the people we interact with.
Smiling is a powerful tool in your body language collection. Perhaps you smile a lot in the
hope of appearing friendly.
37
In some Asian cultures, smiling too much is seen as a signal
that you' re not a serious person and may lose you some respect.
If you' re trying to hide nervousness you'd better avoid smiling too much, too. Also be aware
that nervous people often hug themselves, rub their forehead, and shift their body weight from one
foot to another to create a slight rocking motion. 38
If you' re trying to show that you are listening sympathetically to what someone has to say, try
tipping your head slightly and nodding very slightly. This gesture implies you are listening with
interest. If you' re talking to someone and a third person joins, turn your body towards them slightly
to include them and make them feel valued. 39 A single nod of the head is also a strong gesture
of coolness when listening to another person.
To build trust quickly? Try mirroring. Adopting a similar stance (站姿) to the person you are
engaged with indicates your interest and helps develop trust. Use this with caution, though.
