In 2018，I wanted to do something to bring change for people in my community．I carried out research to understand the problems affecting them and found that climate change was the greatest threat．When I realised many people in the rural areas faced fatal impacts such as landslides，floods and droughts，I decided to stand up．Seeing climate change threaten the availability of food and water in my country was a wake-up call．
We are focused and very clear with our demands．We are not afraid of holding governments and corporations accountable for the climate crisis because the science is clear．We will not give up because our future is at stake．We need to demand for climate action as our lives depend on it too，because we do．Farmers in Ontario stood up against a proposed mega quarry(采石场)in their land．They held festivals to draw attention，they spoke up against corporate mining which threatened their groundwater and soil，they mobilised many people to stop it and in 2012，Highland Company withdrew their plans．
I hope to see the end of the fossil fuel industry，and we need renewable energy．We need sustainability in every sector through green building and clean transportation．I hope to see recovery of our ecosystems through planting more trees，having urban forests and protecting wildlife．Our existence depends on that of our ecosystems．I hope to see more recovery projects built in the most affected communities．
There are many climate movements all over the world and most have social media accounts．Find a local group that you can work with to demand climate action．When people are united，they cannot be defeated．Earth is our home to protect．Everyone is needed．

There are around 100 tribes that live in global isolation，mostly in South America and India．
The Sentinelese(250 people)have lived on one of the Andaman Islands in Eastem India for 60，000 years．They protect their island by fighting against people from outside．Their language is different from any other known language．
Another Andaman tribe is the Jarawa(300 people)．In the past，they were independent and fought against anybody trying to make contact with them．But in 1998，the Indian govemment built a road across their land，and since then，they’ve had more contact with the outside world．
Some Amazon tribes avoid contact because of unhappy memories．The Mashco—Piro left their vegetable gardens after rubber companies killed most of their tribe at the beginning of the 20th century．Those who survived became nomadic(游牧的)and started hunting animals in the forest．
The Awa live in the Amazon forests of Brazil．Out of 350 members，100 have no contact with the outside world．They left their villages and adopted a nomadic lifestyle around 1850 to escape attacks by Europeans．In the following years，farmers in nearby communities started cutting the trees to expand their farmland．The Awa lost most of their hunting land．
The few Amazon tribes that still exist are fighting to keep their traditional way of life．
Survival，an organization that fights for the rights of tribal people，says that uncontacted tribes are the most vulnerable(弱势的)humans on the planet and that’s why their environment should be unavailable to the rest of us．
After years of pressure，the organization got Brazil’s government to clear invaders from the Awa land．All non-Awa people are leaving so the tribe can get their forest back．But some think it’s impossible for tribes to stay isolated forever in a connected world．Contact will be made one day．So the question is：Whose choice should it be，ours or theirs?

The future of space exploration may depend on an art form from the past：origami(折纸艺术)，the ancient art of paper folding．
Researchers from Washington State University(WSU)，US，have used origami to possibly solve the problem of storing and moving fuel to rocket engines，a key challenge in space travel，according to Newswise．They’ve developed a foldable plastic fuel“bladder(囊状物)”resistant to super cold temperatures，which could be used to store and pump fuel in spacecrafts of the future．Their findings have recently been published in the journal Cryogenics．
“Folks have been trying to make bags for rocket fuel for a long time，”said Jake Leachman，one of the lead researchers．“We currently don’t do large，long-duration trips because we can’t store fuel long enough in space．”
Meanwhile，NASA is also looking to paper folding to help observe distant planets．The agency is currently developing Starshade，a foldable，sunflower-shaped piece of hardware that would help block starlight and enable telescopes to view distant objects more clearly in space．
“A huge part of my job is looking at something on paper and asking，‘Can we fly this?’”Manan Arya，a technologist in California，said．“Once I realized this is how you fold spacecraft structures，I became interested in origami．I realized I was good at it and enjoyed it．Now，I fold constantly．”
Using origami for space purposes isn’t new．however．Solar arrays(太阳能阵列)，experimental wings for space shuttle programs and an inflatable(可充气的)satellite were also inspired by origami in both past and present space projects．
“With most origami，the magic comes from the folding，”Robert Salazar，who helped design the Starshade and now works on the Transformers project．said in a statement．“There are so many patterns to still be explored．”
12．Which can be the suitable title for the text?
A．Folding into space．
B．The art of paper folding．
C．Space exploration．
D．The origami—inspired projects．
13．How could the“bladder”help in future missions?
A．To protect spacecrafts from extreme weather．
B．To be used to store and supply fuel in spacecrafts．
C．To help rocket engines cut energy consumption．
D．To be used to improve energy efficiency．
14．What can we know about NASA’s Starshade?
A．It can be used to get telescopes closer to stars．
B．It can enlarge the view of telescopes in space．
C．It can absorb a star’s light before it enters telescopes．
D．It can help telescopes get clearer pictures of objects in space．
15．What is this text?
A．A travel journal． B．A digest． C．A science report． D．An advertisement．

When I was seven，my parents explained to me that my sister would be different．16 But now I realize I see the world in a much different way，all thanks to her．
Throughout our 1ives，my sister has often got stared at because she has Down syndrome(唐氏综合症)，which makes her appear abnormal．There were times when I had to struggle withher．17 I simply thought．“Everyone else is just staring and that is wrong．They should offer us help instead of staring at us like it’s a circus act(马戏表演)．”
I had this in mind when I was traveling alone recently and saw a mother and a son with special needs at the airport gate．18 They were heading towards the gate of their second departure of the day．The mother was obviously stressed out and trying to keep her son calm while some items were falling out of her un-zipped(拉开拉链的)backpack．The son was pulling strangers’clothes，and she appeared to be embarrassed about it．Then the boy began to scream，looking very scared and confused．
Some people gave the son and mother strange looks，the same kind of looks my sister and I would sometimes get．19 I tried to help calm the boy down by assuring him he was going to see his grandmother as his mom kept telling him．When the boy finally calmed down，I returned to my seat．At the time，an older gentleman turned around and said to me．“I thought about doing what you did，but I just thought about it．You did it．”
To be honest．I didn’t even really regard what I did as something different or good．20
A．They had got off another plane．
B．People would stare at us even more．
C．I don’t know what I should do to help．
D．But I went up and asked if I could lend a hand．
E．I just consider it as the only choice in that situation．

We live in a rural area of the San Francisco Bay Area．Most of what we see is beauty and nature．One of the exceptions to the beauty is the litter that some people throw out of their windows as they 36 (drive)on the rural roads．One of the few drawbacks to living in the wild is that public services，such as litter collection，are less available 37 they are closer to the city．
A helping ritual(习惯)that I practice 38 (regular)with my two children is picking up litter in our surrounding area．We’ve become so accustomed to 39 (do)this that my daughters will often say to me 40 sweet voices，“There’s some litter，Daddy，stop the car!”And if we have time，we will often pull over and pick it up．It may seem strange，but we actuall
