3、who put me through my paces after my daily work.He gave me knowledge about everything from the importance of building muscle groups to how to avoid tiredness through nutrition.It quickly became apparent that the mechanics of climbing were more complex than I had imagined.There was the equipment and

4、techniques Id never even heard of,all of which would come in handy on the snow-capped peak Id be climbing.Aware of the challenge,Keith made a detailed action plan and I forced myself to stick to it,doing a daily workout at the gym and going on hikes with a heavy pack.I perfected my technique on the

5、climbing wall and even went to climb the mountains to get vital experience.My self-belief increased alongside my muscle power and I became confident about finishing the climb.All too soon I was on a plane to my destination.On that day,when I looked up at the mountain,I thought of abandoning it.But t

6、hen I remembered all the hard work Id done and how disappointed Keith would be if I gave up at the last minute-not to mention letting down the charity and the sense of failure Id experience myself.With a deep breath I gathered my equipment and headed out into the sunshine to meet the rest of the gro

7、up.And as I sit here now,tapping away on my laptop,Im amazed at the details in which I can recall every second of the climb:the burning muscles,the tiredness,the minor problems along the way.Could I have been better prepared?Possibly.Would I be back for another go?Thankfully not.The feeling of being

11、s regretful that it wasnt as smooth as imagined.B The idea of growing food in a desert would make most people laugh but this is quickly becoming a reality.There are currently two desert farms in the world where quality vegetables are being planted cheaply and easily.Sundrop Farms,based in South Aust

12、ralia,uses experimental greenhouses to grow tomatoes,peppers and cucumbers.The biggest challenge of growing food in a desert,obviously,is the lack of available water.The researchers at Sundrop Farms have gotten aroundthis problemby using the sun to desalinate(淡化)sea water.It can also be used to cont

13、rol the temperature of the greenhouses.Without depending on limited resources such as land and fresh water Sundrop Farms has made farming a practice.This can increase the worlds food supplies.Another benefit ofthis kind of farming is that it can be done anywhere,thus reducing the costs of transporti

14、ng food to distant locations.Yet another benefit is that it reduces the need for pesticides(杀虫剂).Another experimental desert farm is the Sahara Forest Project,which began in Qatar in December 2012.Greenhouses in the farm are cooled by saltwater.Solar power and other technologies are used together to

15、 help make vegetation(植被)grow in the desert environment.As deserts have expanded over recent years around the world due to global warming,this project could solve the problem.The result form the Qatar project were better than expected and in June of 2014,Jordan agreed to host another one.This will b

20、ve letter to the cleansing beauty of a good cry is a comforting thought at atime when the continuing stress of the COVID-19 has added heaviness to each of our lives.Scientifically,de Rivarols poetic image doesnt,if youll forgive the words used in the poem,hold water.Theres limited research on crying

21、,partly because of the difficulty of copying the behavior of real crying in a lab.But even within the previous studies,theres little evidence to suggest that crying provides a physiological cleansing of poisons in peoples body.Psychologists believe the relief of a good cry connects with a different

22、emotional process.“It seems that crying occurs just after the peak of the emotional experience,and crying is associated with this return to homeostasis:the process of maintaining a stable psychological state,”said Lauren Bylsma.He also said holding back tears can have negative physical consequences,

24、of the past year.We should find opportunities to release and process our emotions.Watching a tear-jerking movie,having an emotional conversation with a close friend,and writing in a journal are healthy ways toelicita cry.Physical activity like light-footed walking or even dancing can also signal our

30、ompromised.One of the pupils surveyed said,“Although our parents mean well,sometimes theconsequenceof a post can be disastrous.”In response to thesurvey,childrens mental health charity Place2Be and law firm Mishcon de Reya have produced three films ahead of the Christmas holidays the best period for

31、 parental oversharing.In one video,about safety online,10-year-old Adavan said,“If you share anything with your family,you know whos going to see it.But if you share it publicly,there are millions of people who can see your picture.”Joe Hancock,a security lead at Mishcon de Reya,encouraged parents t

32、o share wisely.“Simple steps,such as checking your privacy settings and asking others not to share content of your children on their accounts if they have not updated their privacy settings,are a good start.And,as we found out from the children during filming,having their permission is key,”he said.
