His efforts earned him the GloriaBarronPrize,whichisgiventoyoungpeoplewithsignificantsocialinitiatives. The young man was passionate about improving healthcare in Maharashtra, a place that lacked qualified doctors and healthcare workers. Moreover, there were many quacks, who might quit studying afterayearofmedicineschoolandreturnhomeas“healthcareproviders”. Then Khandelwal was introduced to the a MAHAN Trust, a healthcare organization serving rural parts of Maharashtra.At the time, the MAHAN Trust was training village health workers to carry out basicmedicaltasks,suchastakingmeasurementsandtransportingdatatohospitalsforreview.Through them, Khandelwallearnedthatonly10to15trained workersserved a populationof 200,000.While the methodshowedresults,itwastime-consumingandrequiredsignificantimprovementtohandlethelarge volumeofcasesmoreefficiently.

Are they struggling to break records? The hammer throw (链球), forexample, hasn’tseena newworld recordsince1986.Yet,athletes frequently outdothemselvesinothersports,suchasthe400-metresprint. Although professional athletes often boast impressive muscles, simply increasing muscle mass does not guarantee improved athletic performance. This is partly because muscles lose efficiency as they grow.More muscle mass produces extra force, but the benefits decrease as muscle mass continues togrowandmuscleswilleventuallyapproachahardlimitonwhattheycanachieve. An athlete’s dominant muscle fibre type also significantly impacts performance. Sprinters(短跑运 动员) have a high concentration of fast-twitch fibres (快肌纤维) in contrast to marathon runners, who have a high concentration of slow-twitch fibres. Fast-twitch fibres are richer in energy stores, produce more powerful movements and tire us out more quickly than the slow-twitch variety. This difference setsaspeedlimitonhigh-endurancesportslikelong-distancerunning. Muscles set a ceiling on how hard athletes can work, but performance also depends on what athletes do with their muscles. In the 1968 Olympics, Dick Fosbury used an innovative strategy for the high jump that raised the bar. Instead of soaring forward over the pole, he turned his body mid-flight. The backward jump enabled him to leap over the pole with less effort. Five years later, Dwight Stones perfectedthe“FosburyFlop”andbrokethehigh-jumpworldrecordusingthismethod. Technological advancements in sportswear also significantly boost performance. Shoes equipped with carbon-plated insoles (碳板鞋垫) can give runners an advantage. This type of footwear limits energy loss, meaning the runner has to put in less work to run faster.WorldAthletics allows athletes to compete with these shoesas long as the soft base is no higher than about 4 centimeters, so it’s possible thissportswearcouldleadtonewrunningrecords. Ultimately, while muscle limitations exist, innovative techniques and advancements in sportswear continuetoredefineathleticpotential,suggestingthatrecords,evenseeminglyunbeatableones,mayyet bedefeated. 湖北省新八校教科研协作体*英语试卷(共 8 页)第 4 页28.

D Atechnology with roots going back to the BronzeAge may offer a fast and inexpensive approach to helping achieve the United Nations climate goal of net zero emissions by 2050, according to recent Stanford-ledresearch. The technology involves fitting heat-absorbing bricks in an insulated (隔热的) container, where they can store heat generated by solar or wind power for later use in industrial processes.The heat can thenbereleasedwhenneededbypassingair throughchannelsinthepilesof“firebricks”,thusallowing cement, steel, glass, and paper factories to run on renewable energy even when wind and sunshine are unavailable. These systems are a form of thermal energy (热能) storage. The bricks are made from the samematerialsasthebricksthatlinedprimitivekilns(窑)thousandsofyearsago. Batteriescanstore electricity andprovide itto generate heatondemand.“Thedifferences between firebrickstorageandbatterystoragearethatthefirebricksstoreheatratherthanelectricityandthattheir costis one-tenth thecostof batteries,” saidleadstudy authorMark Z. Jacobson,aprofessor atStanford University.“Thematerialsarebasicallyjustthecomponentsofdirt.” The researchers adopted computer models to compare costs, land needs, health impacts, and emissions involved in two scenarios for an imagined future where 149 countries in 2050 are using renewablesourcesfor allenergy purposes.Inonescenario,firebricks provide 90%of industrialprocess heat. In the other, there’s zero adoption of firebricks or other forms of thermal energy storage. The researchers foundthe scenario with firebricks could cutcosts by $1.27trillion acrossthe 149countries, whilereducingthedemandforelectricalenergyandenergystoragecapacityfrombatteries.

The Socratic Method, named after Socrates himself, is a form of cooperative dialogue where one asks a series of open-ended questions to guide another toward insight and understanding. For example, imagine a teacher discussing moralities with students. The teacher may not explain what is “right” or “wrong”. 37 Andfollow upwith questionslike,“Whydoweconsidersome actionsfairand othersunfair?”Throughthisquestioning,studentsareledtothinkmorecriticallyandexaminetheirown valuesandassumptionsratherthanjustacceptingthepredeterminedanswers. 38 When you ask yourself, for instance, “Why do you believe this?” or “What evidence supports your thinking?”, you are encouraged to consider whether your beliefs are truly your own or influenced by external factors. This process of questioning leads to self-reflection, helping individuals betterunderstandtheunderlyingmotivationsbehindtheirthoughtsandactions. Self-reflection is like hitting the pausebutton onlife. 39 Andit also looks closely atyour own thoughts, feelings, andexperiences.Anunexamined life, however,is onewhere people go through the motions without ever questioning. Living an unexamined life is similar to coasting on automatic pilot, where one simply accepts social standards without critically evaluating them. In this kind of life, you’re sweptalongbysociety’s expectations. 40 Itseems asif you’re living someoneelse’s scriptwithouteverwritingyourown. A.Itgivesyouamomenttostepback.

Chinese characters are the only pictorial written form in modern times, many of 58 have stories behind them. Not only are Chinese characters rich 59 symbolism but also they are amazingly beautifulwhen 60 (pen)with abrushinthe traditionalway.KnownasHanZi,Chinesecharacters are the oldest continuously used writing system. 61 (date) back to as far as the Shang Dynasty, when they were inscribed (刻) on oracle bones, Chinese characters strongly witness their time-honored history. Chinese characters have been used through a unified system throughout China’s history. One advantage of using the system is that people who speak different dialects can understand each other’s writing and thus the mutual 62 (communicate) can go on smoothly. Different as pronunciation marks are, Chinese characters 63 (use) previously and presently are still being used in other languagessuchasJapanese,KoreanandVietnamese,indicatingtheyhavebeenworking 64 (influence).
