More than 500 years ago, the growing Inca Empire began to occupy the Uros'

the water-resistant plant called totora, which grows in the lake and is the lifeblood of the
Uroscommunity.

for students who come into frequent contact with wildlife, Wild Shaale aims to develop a genuine
understanding of wildlife and wild spaces and move beyond wildlife tolerance to concepts of
conservation and environmental issues. The conservation education program fills a gap in
environmentallearning.
While it is fortunate that a basic environmental education is supported by local government,
Karanth believes the challenge lies in the quality of the curriculum and whether it's delivered
effectively and consistently. "You have to visualize what these schools look like. They may not have

event-a combination of global public attention, financial investment and media coverage. New
international celebrities are created, and some competitors' reputations are ruined during
various accusations. Athletes are under the pressure of representing their country and winning
medals in front of worldwide audience. "But then all of that publicity and intensity around being
an Olympian falls off very quickly," says Cogan, a lead sport psychologist. It's more about making

A 2023 paper explained the identity crises athletes face as a result of overfocus on
performance, leaving their non-sporting personalities underdeveloped. In a 2018 paper, Howells
wrote that athletes with a greater "myopia” focus are mare at risk of the "blues". "It is common

YouhaveprobablyheardoftheFermi Paradox（费米悖论）.Giventhehighprobabilitythat
alien（外星人）lifeexistsoutthereintheuniverse， whyhasnobodygotintouchyet？
Answers to the paradox range from the optimistic to the downright frightening. It could be
thatwe simply haven't sent outour own traceable signaturesfor aliensto find usyet. Or it could
be that no aliens will ever make it to the point where they are able to make contact with other
species.
InThree BodyProblem, Cixin Liu'sscience fiction,he describesthe universeasa darkforest,
where each alien society is like a fearful, armed hunter cautiously moving forth. If that hunter
学学科科网网（（北北京京））股股份份有有限限公公司司finds other life, he is left with the safest course of action: to wipe out any other lifeforms before
theycandothesametohim.
Being fearful contributes to humans' development. Our caution may save our lives when
facing a genuine theat. "Take the initiative in the competition, and you may sleep more securely
whilegettingextraresources,"saysSethShostak,aseniorastronomer.
Thankfully, the Dark Forest has lots of issues that are difficult to resolve-the most obvious
being that it's extremely difficult to hide a technologically advanced world. "We've never given
theslightest thought to turning offall the radars（雷达）and going completely silent because it
mightbedangerous,"saysShostak.
The forest theory also falls apart when you consider the true nature of the universe. "The
distances between planets are likely to he so vast that the idea that they would feel the need to
attack one another seems odd. Even if they fear each other, the expanse means that they
wouldn'tlikelyneedtocompeteforthenear-limitlessresources,"saysShostak.
That doesn't necessarily mean that the Dark Forest theory is a nonstarter. Addressing the
holes in the theory requires adding up the terror factor. Suppose that a technological civilization
is going from star to star destroying any sign of life whenever planets with life or technology are
found.Wedon'tseethembecausethey'renotthere.That'sthereallyscarything.

They say scuba diving opens up a world of possibilities, from learning new skills in exploring
places beyond your imagination. A few years ago. I was lacky enough to experience all these on a
reefdiveattheGiliIslandsinIndonesia.
After my first dive, I realized that it has far more in common with yoga than it does with
extreme sports. On land, switching off your brain can be a struggle. Breathing is something that
just happens without thinking. 36 When you're diving, it's a totally different ball

In a 2021 paper, Zhang Jinghong notes that in Chinese culture, food and drink are not
judged only by taste or smell. When 57 (cite) the ancient saying. "Medicine and
food have the same origin", she says that the impact of food and drink on the body 58

example, common food descriptors like "hot" and "cold" do not describe specific
temperatures, 59 howadishisperceivedtoaffectaperson'sinnertemperature.
Keeping that 60 mind, what exactly do tea lovers mean when they talk
about qi and Yun? Deng Shihai, an early expert on Pu'er tea, praised its "flavorless
flavor" as the highest level Pu'er can attain. If that sounds needlessly contradictory,
you're not alone, but to Deng, it was a way to distinguish beginners at tea, 61

Qi and yun are thought to be more advanced than any simple description of taste,
in part because they imply an indescribable sense of connection between people and
things, and even to the 63 (broad) natural world. As Zhang notes," Qi and

It was a sunny Fridayafternoon.My assignment was to record the 400-meter race in the
sports meet. All the students in our class were sitting anxiously except one, a tall handsome
boy named Tommy who was considered the one most likely to win the race. Even, unlike
othercompetitors,hewasquiterelaxed,standingbesidethetrackandstretchinghimself.
"Tommy! I bet you'll win." I yelled at him. "Just wait and see!" A big smile spread across
hisface.
"May I have your attention, please? All the athletes are requested to proceed to the
registrationoffice."Agentlevoicecaughtourattention.
“Tommy,yourshowtime!"Ishoutedandgavehimathumb-up.
Then, I saw all the athletes went to register, preparing for the game. Soon they were all
on the starting line. Taking the best recording location, I raised my smartphone, ready to
shoot.
With the loud sound of the starting gun, all the competitors threw themselves forwards
from the starting line like arrows. Tommy quickly took the lead with his excellent explosive
powerfromlong-termtraining.Buttherewasoneproblemforme-Ihadtospareeveryeffort
tocontrolmyexcitementinordertokeepmyshootingpicturestable.
"Come on, Tommy!" Still, I could hear the cheers of our classmates higher and higher. It
seemed that Tommy had heard the powerful shouts and became full of strength. He kept
adjusting his breath, maintaining a steady rhythm, and approaching the finish line step by
step.
Finally, with the cheers of the audience, Tommy crossed the finish line almost at the
same time with the second-place finisher. How I wish I could rush to him and give him a big
bear hug! But I could not. I had to finish recording the whole race, so I waited until the last
competitor crossed the finish line. Suddenly, I noticed there was an unusual noise from the
crowd.
