As a psychology professor, I’ve studied the happiness curve for years. But looking at the 1 faces
in my classroom, I felt my research wasn’t helping. Young adults increasingly report lower levels of 2
than middle-aged and older adults.
One day, I tried something 3 . I asked my class: “Do you think the students around you are 4
?” Most hands went up. Then I asked: “Do you think others see you as cold too?” Nearly every hand 5 .
Then I showed them our survey results: 92% of those surveyed wanted deeper 6 , and 85% were
ready to help a classmate in need. The room went quiet. The results had surprised them. A girl whispered, “But
Professor, everyone wears headphones and always looks 7 .”
“We usually 8 how friendly and kind we all are,” I explained.
So we 9 the Connection Project. We put posters up in dormitories and also 10 students
to take chances on each other. Mark, a silent freshman, dined with three unfamiliar 11 . Soon they became
a learning circle. “We weren’t really enjoying being alone — we were just too 12 to reach out,” Mark
told us. Six months later participants reported 30% higher happiness and, 13 , four new friends.
On the last day of my course, I closed my notebook and said, “Happiness isn’t a fruit you enjoy 14
, but a garden we grow together. We must jump into the social waters, even when staying on 15 is safer.”

A new study has found that bumblebees can process the duration of light flashes and use this information to
find food. This is the 16 evidence of such an ability in insects, according to Elisabetta Versace from
Queen Mary University of London. Versace told CNN that the finding could settle a long-standing debate among
scientists about whether insects are able to process complex patterns, as many experts previously 17 their
cognitive (认知) abilities.
“In the past, people thought insects were just simple reflex machines without any flexibility,” Versace
explained. To test their idea and prove that bees could process time-related information, the researchers built a(n)
18 designed maze (迷宫) where individual bumblebees traveled when leaving their nests for food.
In the maze, the bees were shown two distinct 19 clues: one circle that flashed briefly for 0.5
seconds and the other for a longer period of 5 seconds. When the bees approached these 20 circles, they
found sweet, preferred food at one and bitter, unwanted food at the other. Even though the circles’ positions
changed in each part of the maze, the bees gradually learned over time to fly toward the 21 flash, which
was consistently linked to the sweet food.
To 22 the possibility that the bees were relying on seeing or smelling the sweet food, Versace and
her team members then tested the bees’ behavior when no food was present at all. They found that the bees could
still tell the circles apart based 23 on flash duration, not other potential cues like color or shape. “This
shows the bees are 24 using the time difference between the flashes to guide their food-seeking choices,”
she said.
Versace noted that the bees’ ability to use such novel stimuli—flashes they would never encounter in their
natural environment — to solve tasks flexibly is truly 25 . “This finding makes perfect sense, as bees must
carefully manage their time while looking for food to maximize rewards and minimize the 26 of
returning to the nest,” she said. The study also found that bumblebees are among a small group of animals,
including humans and pigeons, that can 27 between short and long flashes, a skill humans use to
understand Morse code, where short and long signals represent different letters.
While the neural mechanisms (神经机制) behind bees’ 28 ability remain unclear, the team plans
to investigate them further in future research. They also aim to study bees living freely in colonies rather than
individually, and explore why some bees learn to 29 time duration faster than others. The findings 30
the long-held idea that bees are just instinct-driven machines. Besides, they highlight bees’ complex cognition and
offer new insights into how animals perceive time.

In the quiet, dust-moted corners of the British Museum, a silent battle is being waged against the relentless
march of time. Here, the “restorers” work with a blend of scientific precision and artistic intuition. Their mission is
not to make ancient artifacts look new, but to stabilize them, preserving the 31 of history for future
generations.
One such artifact is a fractured Roman vase, shattered into hundreds of pieces. To the untrained eye, it is a
pile of 32 shards. To the restorer, it is a three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle waiting to be solved. The process
begins with meticulous cleaning. Every speck of dirt must be removed, not with harsh chemicals, but with gentle
solvents that respect the 33 material.
The most challenging phase is the reassembly. The restorer must hold the fragile pieces together, often
without adhesive at first, to understand the 34 structure. It requires a steady hand and immense patience.
A moment of 35 could result in irreversible damage. “You have to listen to the object,” says Elena, a
senior conservator. “It tells you where it wants to go.”
Once the structure is understood, a reversible adhesive is applied. The choice of glue is critical; it must be
strong enough to hold the weight but 36 enough to be removed by future conservators who might have
better technology. This principle of reversibility is the 37 of modern conservation ethics. We do not
impose our will on the past; we merely 38 it.
There are gaps, of course — missing pieces that were lost centuries ago. In the past, restorers might have
39 these gaps with new clay, trying to deceive the viewer. Today, the philosophy is different. Missing parts are
filled with a neutral material, clearly 40 from the original, so that the viewer can distinguish between the
ancient craft and the modern repair. Honesty, in this profession, is 41 .
The work is slow, often taking months for a single object. It is not a job for those seeking 42
gratification. The reward is subtle. It comes in the quiet satisfaction of seeing a broken object become whole again,
or in the knowledge that a piece of human heritage has been 43 from the jaws of oblivion.
In a world that values speed and novelty, these restorers stand as guardians of 44 . They remind us
that while empires fall and civilizations crumble, the human touch — the fingerprint on the clay, the brushstroke on
the canvas — can 45 , if only we care enough to save it.

Wildlife biologists in Montmorency County successfully cut a plastic lid (盖子) off a bear’s neck, according
to Michigan’s Department of Natural Resources (DNR). Actually, the wild animal had accidentally gotten its head
46 in the lid’s 5-inch hole years ago.
“ 47 this bear from the lid was extremely rewarding, and we hope acts like this will 48
additional bears in the future and other wildlife species as well,” DNR’s specialist Cody Norton said.
The DNR 49 that they first spotted the bear in 2023 after seeing camera photos of the bear with its
head trapped in the lid. In the 50 two years, the bear continued to 51 on other cameras but
would disappear very quickly.
The bear’s 52 came after a local resident found the animal and 53 the DNR in late May,
the agency said. With the landowner’s 54 , state biologists set up a fence, and a successful rescue 55
on June 2. They gave the bear anesthesia (麻醉) and 56 the lid. The bear was then released back into
the wild after the anesthesia 57 . The now 2-year-old bear’s neck had significant scarring, but it was
58 healthy, the agency said.
While it is not yet known how the bear got its head trapped in the lid, Norton said that he wanted the bear’s
difficulty to be a 59 of how to safely throw away rubbish so that a 60 isn’t posed to
wildlife.

Mauna Loa in Hawaii is among the world’s most active volcanoes. However, this 61 spot is an
ideal place for simulating (模拟) a space mission to Mars. The site was chosen because it is relatively remote and
62 to the conditions on Mars. The red planet has large volcanoes that are geologic cousins to Mauna Loa.
63 , six scientists were housed near the volcano in a small white dome (圆顶屋) for an 8-month
experiment, the 64 of which was to 65 information on how lengthy Mars missions could
psychologically affect astronauts. The six scientists closed themselves off from the outside world in order to study
what 66 on Mars would be like. Their task was to see how isolation affects the social aspects of explorers
who might one day 67 the red planet.
Conditions on Mars are tough, so the six had to manage without many of life’s 68 , like fresh fruit
and unlimited water. Leaving the habitat involved 69 heavy suits similar to those being designed for
Mars astronauts and waiting 5 minutes in an “airlock” to simulate how the air pressure drops. They only left the
dome once a week to 70 field studies that would happen during a Mars mission.
Outside, there was a lot to explore — lava flows, caves, and igneous rock. The 71 were a
particularly attractive destination. In an article, a participant noted her crew explored more than 100 caves. In one
particular cave, she detailed the 72 that came from exploring finger-shaped rock formations.
“We have examined the rock more closely, and 73 a suitable shelter for a possible evacuation (撤
离) from the dome,” she wrote. “On Mars this kind of lava tube (熔岩管) is hoped to provide shelter to astronauts
from the 74 space radiation during a solar storm.”
The research findings are expected to have considerable 75 on decisions when putting astronauts

We all have weaknesses and strengths — no matter who we are. Sometimes the weaknesses seem to
outweigh the strengths and sometimes it’s the other way around. Some people get sick easily. Some struggle to
76 their finances properly. Some people are 77 communicators and struggle with relationships.
Many people accept it as just bad 78 — but not everyone. Some people facing huge 79
still manage to achieve surprising things. They 80 above their weaknesses and do not allow them to limit
their possibilities.
I attended a school prize-giving ceremony not so long ago and the guest 81 was Andrew Becroft,
who had a severe stutter (口吃) as a child. Instead of allowing this to limit him, he chose to work hard to 82
it. He is now the Principal Youth Court Judge for New Zealand. Not only did he become successful, but he did so in
a(n) 83 where he had to speak in front of others regularly — where his 84 is front and center
for all to see. If he hadn’t 85 his speaking ability, it would have been very limiting to his life and career
86 .
Here are some more 87 : Brett Eastburn has no arms or legs and yet is an inspirational speaker and
also a very good wrestler. Ringo Starr, drummer for the Beatles, 88 a very poor background. He was
constantly troubled by illness as a child and spent large amounts of time in hospital. Mark Inglis 89 both
of his legs below the knees in a mountaineering accident, but has since climbed Mt Everest.
Most of us will never have to face the challenges these people faced. Yet most of us will never achieve 90
that these people have had either, unless we choose to. If Mark Inglis can climb the highest mountain in the world
without legs, what can we do?

The philosophy club at our high school was an island of quiet conversation in a sea of athletic enthusiasm
and frenetic artistic preparation. I joined, not out of any deep Socratic calling, but because it met in a warm room
during the last period on Thursdays, and I had nowhere more compelling to be. Mr. Davies, our advisor, spoke with
a calm that seemed to absorb the surrounding noise. He never told us what to think, but persistently, gently, guided
us in how to think.
One week, he presented a classic dilemma: a runaway trolley is headed for five people tied to a track. You
can pull a lever, diverting it onto a side track where it will kill one person. Do you pull it? The room fractured. “It’s
simple math-save five!” argued one side. “But you’re making yourself an active agent in killing the one!” countered
another, their voice thick with 91 . I sat, my own opinion a ship adrift, 92 by each new
argument. Then Mr. Davies refined the scenario: “What if the single person on the side track is a child?” The ethical
calculus, once seemingly clear, dissolved into a 93 of gut feeling and tortured logic. I left that day
mentally drained, yet feeling a strange, electric 94 I hadn’t experienced in any other class. The questions
had no answers, and that, I was starting to see, was precisely the 95 .
Week after week, we wrestled with the nature of justice, the illusion of free will, the problem of other minds.
I began to perceive the world through a new 96 . A headline wasn’t just news; it was a nest of
unexamined premises. A disagreement with my father wasn’t just a clash of wills; it was a conflict of foundational
97 . I learned to deconstruct my own assumptions, to build logical 98 that could withstand scrutiny,
and, most painfully, to truly listen to perspectives that my instincts screamed to reject.
This newfound habit of interrogation didn’t make me popular. At lunch, my tendency to respond to a friend’s
strong opinion with “What leads you to that 99 ?” could be met with eye rolls. My social currency, once
based on easy agreement, 100 . Yet, in its place, I found a different, sturdier 101 : a
confidence born not of knowing the right answers, but of being able to 102 the right questions. I was no
longer a passive vessel for information; I was an active, if confused, participant in a much larger conversation.
On the final day, Mr. Davies gave each of us a smooth, river-worn stone. “Philosophy rarely provides 103
,” he said. “Its gift is the unsettled mind, the good question that 104 complacency. Keep this. Let it
remind you to stay 105 .” I keep that stone on my desk. In a cacophonous world of instant takes and
performative certainty, it is a quiet monument to doubt, to the weight of a thoughtful pause, and to the slow,
enduring work of building a mind that can think for itself.

This is the best way to 108 people. There are those who hate the thought of rubber on carpet, who
lie awake 109 because wearing outdoors shoes indoors breaks the natural order of things. Then there are
normal people like me, who really don’t care because they understand the 110 of doormats.
However, shoes-off-ers might be on to something. A recent study conducted by researchers at the University
of Houston has shown that 26.4% of shoes 111 the bacteria of Clostridium difficile. Work on a 112

They are definitely 113 guests to your living rooms.
But I’m going to 114 myself. Sure, it might be more hygienic (卫生的) to remove your shoes at
the door, but only to a small extent. By all accounts, there is a 115 chance you will get ill when someone
is wearing shoes in your living room. And if you have got young kids, who rush in and out of the house without
116 at the first sign of the sun, it’s much more practical to keep your shoes on. Not to mention 117 :
Fewer things inspire more pity than the sight of adults 118 bending themselves into knots as they attempt
to do up their shoelaces in a narrow hallway at the 119 of a night.
True, the answer to both of these problems is slippers. But given the choice of slippers or E. coli, I’ll 120

Who, or what, do you trust?
Every day, we turn to the internet to 121 : should we stay at that hotel, eat at this restaurant, ride
with that driver? We have become so used to the large-scale insights provided by 122 , many of us
wouldn’t even buy a toaster without first checking reviews. Their accessibility and apparent authority mean that
simply picking an appliance at random is almost 123 — why wouldn’t you ask Google first? And yet,
when it comes to many more fundamental choices — like what we choose to study — we often trust our instincts.
This, argues economist Seth Davidowitz, is where we are going wrong. 124 , following our instincts can
lead us to act on hidden prejudices or to keep following dead-end paths.
In his new book Don’t Trust Your Gut: Using data instead of instinct to make better choices, Seth
Davidowitz brings together “credible answers to 125 questions” as revealed by vast online data, so we
can apply them in order to be more successful and happier. “While we often think we know how to better ourselves,
the numbers, it turns out, 126 ,” he writes.
Some findings are indeed 127 , going against common belief — for example, the overstated
advantage of youth in starting a business. Others, however, may be more 128 expectations: we often
overestimate the pleasure of passive activities such as snacking and watching TV. Research by the London School
of Economics found that even relaxing tends to make people feel less 129 than anticipated. On the other
hand, we underestimate the 130 to our mood from visiting museums or libraries.
From work to relationships, Seth Davidowitz looks to the data for 131 on key decisions and,
where possible, tries it out for himself. In his book he writes that he used AI, market research and statistical analysis
— putting more than 100 edited images of himself into an online survey — to find out that people generally prefer
him with glasses and a beard. Though entertaining, his book is most 132 when it challenges popular
assumptions and demonstrates what works best for most people, so that all of us might learn from their example.
But his somewhat idealist view of data may create a 133 with a world already transformed by it.
134 may not lie, as Seth Davidowitz writes — but nor do they reveal the complete, complex picture, especially
when they are controlled by corporate interests. When our 135 is already being shaped by data in ways of
which we aren’t aware, perhaps success isn’t always a matter of making the right decision.

Most of us pursue self-respect and positive self-perception (自我认知). Comments that 136 our
self-worth feel uncomfortable, but whether they truly hurt us is 137 subjective, depending on how we
138 others’ words or actions.
Taking things personally means interpreting situations as negative 139 about oneself — a
psychological tendency called “personalisation (个人化归因)”. For example, a boss pointing out 140 in
a report might be misread as thinking you incompetent. Or if your friends cancel a get-together, you might believe
they plan to 141 you. This often pairs with “mind reading”: 142 you know others’ thoughts
without asking directly, like believing your boss finds you useless.
But 143 usually tells a different story: your boss may want to help you improve, and friends might
have canceled because they were unwell. To counter this, 144 negative assumptions by putting yourself
in others’ shoes, which reveals alternative interpretations— such as your boss’s feedback showing care for your
growth, or your friendship being strong enough to allow 145 .
The type of 146 you hold also matters. “Hubristic pride”, feeling naturally outstanding, makes you
more likely to take things personally. However, “authentic pride” — being proud of your efforts, intentions and
147 — will reduces this tendency. Developing authentic pride can 148 you to protect your self-
worth and carry you through 149 . Ultimately, our attitude 150 the foundation of true self-
respect.
