And by hike I mean we walked, climbed and slid for five hours through a thick, wet mountainous area of Costa Rican jungle to get to what promised to be a splendid waterfall.My daughters are active and strong. And I thought I was too. But it became pretty obvious as we went on that while we were all falling and covered with mud, laughing at how absurd it was, they got up more quickly and kept our guide more easily. I was always the slowest and the sweatiest.They’d wait for me if I got too far back, watching as I picked my way toward them. It reminded me of the first glimpse I had of my mom as someone weaker than I, like when she started to get out of breath walking across parking lots. It’s a slow change that happens gradually over decades, until one day you’re your mother’s mother making sure she eats dinner.When the girls and I finally got to that waterfall, it was indeed wonderful: a 40-feet wall of water crashing down with such energy that we had to shout above the noise. We took off a few wet clothes and jumped into the deep pool at the base.It was shocking, not because of coolness of the water, but because of the force of the current.After a long time of trying hard to get closer to the base of the waterfall, we were tired and gathered up our stuff, arguing over who would return with the heaviest pack. I did not get a pass due to age. Hadn’t they seen me struggling back there? Instead I was accused of being “able-bodied”. As we set off, back in formation, the girls climbed just ahead of me, talking excitedly about something I couldn’t quite make out above the noise in nature.Of course, that’s what every generation hopes for the next—that they’ll be able to take care of each other without you, that when you slowdown, they’ll have each other.4．How was the journey according to the first paragraph?A．Tough and tiring.

Teachers in the training group increased interactions with students by 64 percent compared with 53 percent for teachers in the control group without the training.“Emotional regulation is the ability to recognize what behavior is appropriate in the present situation,” says Wendy Reinke, professor in the College of Education at the University of Missouri. “For example, a student might have difficulty controlling the feeling of anger if he or she becomes annoyed with another student. But under this program, the teacher encourages them to move to a different spot in the classroom, effectively teaching them that sometimes stepping away and taking a break is a good way to calm down and manage8ha8feeling.”After one school year of using the program in classrooms, students improved their social ability and ability to regulate their emotions. These improvements resulted in an increase in the tests for students in Incredible Years classrooms vs. students in control classrooms. And this classroom management approach can help reduce the risk for struggling learners early on, which could help prevent more accumulative support needs in a child’s future.8．What do the teachers do in the IYTCM program?A．Learn how to identify poor behavior.B．Offer the researchers advice on emotional control.C．Take care of kids from kindergarten to third grade.D．Apply different ways to learning how to manage kids.9．What do Wendy Reinke’s words suggest in Para. 4?A．Now it is hard for students to control their anger.B．A calm manner is an effective way to handle problems.C．Few can realize their behavior is unfit for a situation.D．The program will show how to handle troublesome kids.10．What is the author’s attitude towards the training program?A．Positive. B．Negative.C．Subjective. D．Indifferent.11．What can we learn from the last paragraph?A．Study results of the program are entirely unexpected.B．The program advances the students’ academic performance.C．Students in control classrooms can better control their emotions. D．Students change their bad behavior shortly through the program.With a sun hat made of solar panels, a tea picking robot snakes its way through rows of Longing tea bushes in Hangzhou’s West Lake scenic spot, East China’s Zhejiang province. The 550-kg robot picker is a godsend for local tea planters this season. The upcoming Qingming Festival, which falls on Wednesday this year, is the major harvest period for early spring tea, and the local tea gardens are quite understaffed these days.Longing tea, also known as West Lake Dragon Well tea, is a kind of green tea. “The beautiful forms of a bud with one leaf or a bud with two leaves are often acknowledged as quality tea. And the picking work of such tea leaves has relied largely on hand-operated work, very difficult to be replaced by machines,” said Jia Jiangming, developer of the robot.However, most of the tea pickers in the production areas of Longjing tea are all in their 60s, few are in their 50s, and young people are not willing to land jobs in the industry. “If so, the Longjing tea industry may face great embarrassment when there remains nobody to help pick the leaves,” Jia said when explaining why his team started to develop tea-picking robots as early as 2019.Jia’s team introduced the model of convolution neural networks (卷积神经网络) in deep learning, enabling the robot to study many tea tree bud and leaf image data. Using binocular stereo (双目立体) vision, the robot can position where the target bud and leaf are, cut them off accurately, and then suck the leaves into its basket.Earlier this year, Jia’s robot helper developed into its fifth generation. The upgraded robot’s overall tea-picking success rate rose from 40 percent to 60 percent. “The new generation robot can do as well as a human tea picker,” said Chen Jianneng, another researcher of the team, adding that though the robot is still in its trial operation, they plan to improve its practicability, thus allowing the tea industry to enjoy benefits brought by modern mechanization in the coming future. 12．Why is there a lack of human tea pickers in the Longjing tea industry? A．Because machinery has taken the place of human tea pickers.B．Because the tea-leaf picking work can only be done by humans.C．Because human tea pickers are not capable of picking the target tea leaves. D．Because the young generation are not interested in the demanding job. 13．What can we learn about the robot tea-leaf picker?A．It can suck the damaged leaves into its basket.B．It can increase the quality of the early spring.C．It can help pick tea leaves accurately and intelligently.D．It can reach a higher tea-picking success rate than humans.14．What does Chen Jianneng think of the new generation robot?A．The robot’s picking efficiency has been greatly increased.B．The robot cannot be put into use for it hasn’t been tested yet.C．The benefits of the robot are being enjoyed by the tea industry.D．The robot still needs improvements before coming into common use.15．What is the best title of this text?A．Robot Joins Longjing Tea HarvestB．The Newest Robot Picker Enjoys PopularityC．Advanced Technology Is Used in Tea IndustryD．Longjing Tea-Leaf Picking Work Faces Challenge二、七选五How to Teach ConfidenceWhile it might seem like some people are just born confident, confidence is largely an acquired skill. 16 Start by building up their self-esteem, independent thought, and positive self—talk. Show them how to achieve goals, and how to deal with failure when it happens. With lessons like these, you can teach the people around you to become more confident.Model confident behavior far people.If you’re trying to improve someone’s confidence, be a model for how they should behave in a confident way. 17 Show them confident interpersonal relations like eye contact, handshakes, and making small talk. This lets them practice in a safe environment.Praise small accomplishments to raise a person’s self-worth.If you’re trying to build someone’s confidence, start small. Each accomplishment they complete is a cause for celebration, even if it seems small. Be happy for your friends, kids, or students. 18Give specific praise so people know what they did well.A specific praise is better than a simple “You did well”. 19 . This makes your praise more genuine and boosts the person self-esteem more by showing them their strengths.Start with a positive statement before correcting something.20 This is especially important if you’re a parent, teacher, or coach. If you do have to make criticisms or corrections, always start by saying something positive first. This raises the person’s spirits and makes it easier for them to take the critical feedback that’s coming up.A．Instead, tell the person exactly what they did well.B．It’s something you can model and teach other people.C．You may have to point out where someone needs to improve.D．Instead of feeling criticized, the person will know you’re sincere.E．Act confident around them and in your interpersonal interactions.F．Your positive energy will teach them to celebrate their achievements.G．You might show someone’s strengths to help them see the bright side.三、完形填空“The silence is killing me,” I thought as I locked my phone, hoping a new message would light up the screen.
