Shed taken her flashlight, opened the door and shined it across the garden. A tiny elephant stared back at her, eyes in terror. Not knowing what to do, Aman

9、da had closed the door and climbed out of a back window to call me.Elephants are fantastic mothers - ET would never leave her baby unattended. Apparently, the baby elephant had somehow slipped under the fence.Amanda and I had to get her inside the house to keep her safe until we could get her back t

10、o her mother. Her frightened eyes stared at us through the leaves. I walked slowly toward the Ellie. She watched me but as soon as I was within touching distance, she ran behind the house. Amanda and I ran after her. Finally, we managed to corner the Ellie in the parking area. She stood completely s

11、till, head down and eyes flashing anxiously at any movement or sound. I tried approaching her again, and this time she didnt resist, allowing us to gently get her into my home.I kept talking to her, telling her she was safe and that we would get her back to her mum. Then I called the reserve center

14、ther used to take me to my grandparents9 in Belgium during the school holidays. While I would play chess with my grandfather, he would tell me stories about growing up, falling in love, and travelling around the world.I didnt realize the importance of preserving memories until my grandfather passed

15、away, which ultimately changed my outlook on remembering our loved ones and the stories we share. I thought about solutions to help other people record the precious memories for those they love-before ifs too late. So I began matching ghostwriters （代笔人）to clients to help them write a book as smoothl

16、y and beautifully as possible, and Story Terrace was born.Since then, we have explored the power of stories and their ability to connect us with our past and make sense of the present. It has been documented that increased family connection is significantly linked to less loneliness. Learning more a

17、bout ones family history, however, has been linked to boosting emotional health, increasing compassion and providing a deeper sense of cultures and traditions.What we have found through our own research is that so many of us have missed out on the opportunity to explore our origins. 56 percent of Br

18、its agreed that much of their family history is lost because they are no longer able to speak with the person who knows the most about it. A further 51 percent expressed regret as they wished they could tell their younger self to document their family life story, feeling that most of it had been for

19、gotten. But when it comes to telling these stories, many dont know where to begin.We have seen numerous times when people come to us with random journal entries and notes from over the years, and these can be developed into a wonderful work of art that can be passed down for generations to come.Half

20、 of the projects we see at Story Terrace are heritage stories, with family occupying a dominant theme for most stories. Alongside this, common themes we see are of course love, overcoming challenges, settling in new surroundings and so on. However, family is a thread that always ties these together.

Preserve Memories with StoryTerraceSherry Gao is pouring coffee made from single-origin beans, hoping that

24、her Mandarin Coffee Stand in the city of Pasadenawill, California introduces you to your new favorite coffee and turns your preconceptions about Chinese coffee beans upside down.Much of the Western world imports its coffee from Africa and South America. But Gao hopes that throwing light on Yunnan-so

25、urced coffee could expose customers to the coffee-producing region and help to break down prejudice against the beans, which for decades, until only a few years ago, were primarily used for instant products.“We wanted to highlight Chinese coffee because a lot of people never had Chinese coffee befor

26、e/ Gao said. “Some have the mindset that its bad or its cheap, but thafs not the case anymore. Ifs been changing so much over the last decade.”Recent experimentation with processing, such as the addition of fruit or sugarcane molasses during the production, is leading Yunnans coffee to more flavorfu

27、l results. Every time a new product comes in, it tastes better than the last one,“ Gao said.Farmers in China have grown tea for more than 3,000 years, but coffee has been grown there for only about a century in small quantities, with an uptick in the 1980s with government involvement. And the turn o

28、f the century and the 2010s saw a sharp growth with international corporations investing in the regions crops, initially for use in instant coffee.But in the last 10 to 15 years, tastes and demand for specialty and high-grade coffees emerged, especially from local growers and shops. The domestic dem

29、and for China-grown coffee has risen so dramatically that Gao says its now much more expensive.To further connect with the community, Gao hopes to one day host classes for interactive how-to events. After all, she says, the Yunnan coffee tastes excellent when made in ones own kitchen with a pour-ove

Education.While the rest of us are sleeping, freshwater turtles （龟）from Central America to Asia are getting out of the water and basking （月 光浴）at night. There have been reports of this behav

33、ior before, but now a new study is the first to document the widespread occurrence. The findings suggest this may be a common and almost entirely overlooked aspect of many species ecology.Dr. Donald McKnight, one of the researchers, said he and a colleague first observed freshwater turtles night bas

34、king at the Ross River in Townsville, Australia. We think its related to temperature. The water is staying so warm at night that its actually warmer than the turtles like to be and they can cool down by coming out of the water,“ says McKnight.For the study, researchers put cameras to watch the night

35、 activity of as many freshwater turtle species as possible. The cameras were set up in 25 locations. They were programmed to take a photo every two minutes. They collected data on 29 species of freshwater turtles.It would be lovely to think the turtles are just enjoying some leisure time when things

36、 are quiet. But the researchers note that in most cases, the turtles got out of water when the water was too warm and the air was cooler. Given the warming planet, thats admittedly a bit depressing. However, not all of the nighttime baskers were escaping too-warm water. According to the study, turtl

37、es in India exhibited more basking on cooler nights, rather than warmer nights, and those in Africa spent more time basking at night in winter than in summer. The reasons for these differences are unclear. It may be that at some sites or seasons, turtles are escaping unfavourably warm water temperat

38、ures, while at others, they are taking advantage of the warm air to increase their body temperature and escape unfavourably cold water.Regardless of the why” behind different species9 reasons for midnight basking, its a fascinating look at behaviors not previously documented by scientists. And it is

39、 at least encouraging to know that turtles are figuring out important behaviors tied to climate change. 12. Why do the freshwater turtles from Australia get out of water at night? A. To search for extra food.B. To avoid natural enemies.C. To cool themselves down.D. To enjoy the quietness outside.13.

40、 What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A. How the study was conducted.B , What the study brought about.C. Why the study was carried out.D. Where the study was made.14. Which of the following are the researchers certain about?A. Turtles in Africa flee water often on summer nights.B. The water is unfavorab

41、le for turtles to survive in IndiaC. The reasons for turtles different behaviors are obvious.D. Night basking is caused by the change of water temperature.15. How does the author feel about the finding?A. Skeptical.B. Positive.C. Surprised.D. Desperate.二、七选五Just breathe. Sound familiar? Whether tryi

42、ng to decrease stress, anxiety, and muscle tension or increase our focus, we are frequently encouraged to breathe.There is a good reason for this, particularly when it comes to muscle tension andpain. 16 When we are stressed, our muscles tense, and this tension can increase pain. Pain can also cause

43、 stress, increasing muscle tension and creating more pain. Also, it is common to hold our breath when we are stressed or in pain 17So, one helpful way to manage stress and pain is to practice relaxing our muscles and nervous system via breathing exercises. While engaging in longer relaxation exercis

44、es is beneficial, practicing brief exercises is practical.Breathe Slowly and Rhythmically18 Imagine your breath is a wave in the ocean that is slowly coming into shore and then slowly going back into the ocean. See if you can practice breathing slowly and steadily for about two to five minutes.Lengt

45、hen the Exhale （呼）Portion of Your BreathThe exhale is like a brake for our nervous system, helping it slow down. Practice making the exhale portion of the breath longer than the inhale: For example, if you naturally inhale to a count of three, practice slowly exhaling to a count of five.Breathe from

46、 Your Belly （腹部）Belly breathing tends to be the most relaxing type of breath. When you breathe using your belly, you stimulate the vagus nerve which activates the relaxation response.19Therefore, you feel at ease and comfortable.It is important not to wait until tension and pain increase to practice

47、 these exercises.20So just slow down and breathe on.A. Practice breathing in and out at a slow speed.B. Unfortunately, doing so increases pain and stress.C. The exhale part of the breath is the most relaxing.D. Breathing from your nose only helps you calm down.E. Physical pain and emotional stress o

48、ften go hand in hand.F. They will be most effective when you are not in much pain.G. This will reduce your heart rate and blood pressure and lower stress.三、完形填空In 2019,1 was staying at a fitness camp in Thailand. After doing 2.5 hours of kickboxing, I began to cough.
