Option B by Sheryl Sandberg and Adam Grant
Part personal experiences and part self-help book. Option B is about the journey of the former Facebook 
Chief Operating Officer (COO) Sheryl Sandberg, who lost her husband to a sudden brain injury in 2015. While 
sharing her story, Sandberg and coauthor Adan Grant reveal research-based tips on how to recover after a big loss.

only recover but also grow up from a disaster.

living near green spaces is good for our health which has inspired the Singapore government to have more greenery 
in their urban development.

WEIGHING IN ON WEIGHT: CALCULATIONS TOOLS
Many people check their body mass index (BMI) to see if they are overweight. However, this health tool can 
sometimes be misleading. Now, a more accurate alternative, the body roundness index (BRI), is available to assess 
excessive visceral fat content (内脏脂肪含量) . What is BMI?
BMI = weight (kg) / height2 (m)
Limitations of BMI.
* BMI, which only measures your height and weight, cannot distinguish between muscle and fat, which might 
lead to misleading results.
* Athletes, who have less body fat and more muscle, tend to have a higher BMI because muscle weighs more 
than fat.
* The BMI of people with thin limbs (四肢) and a pot belly may be normal or even low, although they 
possibly have excessive visceral fat.
What is BRI?
Advantages of BRI
* BRI is used to assess whether the body’s visceral fat content is within the normal range. It is calculated 
based on height and waist circiumference measurements. The higher your BRI, the more visceral fat you have.
* Compared with BMI, BRI can effectively filter (过滤) out those with large muscle mass. This enables it to 
more accurately determine people with high visceral fat content.
1.If a person with 181cm weighs 83.5kg, which category does his BMI fall into?
A.Underweight.
B.Normal weight.
C.Overweight.
D.Obesity.
2.What can we learn about the limitation of BMI?
A.It fails to reflect body fat.
B.It causes anxiety disorder.
C.It leaves health problems untreated.
D.It brings about body image problems.
3.How does BRI improve assessment accuracy?
A.By tracking dietary preference.
B.By monitoring weight continuously.
C.By using advanced scanning technology.
D.By incorporating waistline measurements.

There are always some places that seem to go well beyond our earthly expectations. These incredible locations 
are similar to those in science fictions, catching our imagination and transporting us to otherworldly grounds.
Cappadocia, Turkey
Located in central Anatolia, the area is known for its unusual rock formations known as “fairy chimneys”. 
These columns, created by volcanoes and erosion (腐蚀) over millions of years, give the region its otherworldly 
appearance.
Tsingy de Bemaraha
The remarkable sight attracts visitors with its unique limestone (石灰石) formations. Stretching over 1,500-
square kilometers, Tsingy, which means “where one cannot walk barefoot,” contains sharp surfaces and 
underground caves, forming a dramatic landscape. Adventurers can explore the park via bridges and ladders to 
witness the breathtaking beauty of this natural wonder.
Zhangye Danxia National Geological Park
Located in China’s Gansu Province, Zhangye Danxia National Geological Park contains landforms that are 
one of nature’s masterpieces. Its vivid, rainbow-colored rock formations have been shaped by wind and water 
erosion over millions of years. The layers of red, orange and yellow create a landscape that looks as if it is on a 
different planet altogether.
Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula
Located within the remarkable landscapes of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, the cenotes (洞井) present a place 
of otherworldly beauty. These natural sinkholes, created by the collapse of their limestone bases, open up into 
charming underground caves and shining pools. Rays of sunlight dance through the openings in the walls, lighting 
up the waters below, telling a tale of nature’s artistry.
Visiting these places not only provides a visual feast, but also reminds us of the incredible wonder here on the 
Earth.

If you plan to have an expressive trip during 2025, the following are some destinations you can carefully 
consider.
Costa Rica, Guanacaste
Costa Rica is well-known for its positive, easy-going outlook that invites travelers to slip off their shoes and 
sink onto a beach blanket, or speed through the rainforest canopy on a rope line. The best time to visit for the best 
beach days is in January and February. Many restaurants here automatically add a 10% service charge.
The Athens Riviera, Athens
A long-kept secret is finally out: The 35-mile stretch of coast known as the Athens Riviera is becoming the 
city’s second center. With its pleasant beaches, day-to-night bars and busy shops and restaurants, it’s hard to deny 
the area’s attraction. If you’re aiming for beach-perfect weather, the most suitable period to come here is between 
May and September.
Antwerp, Belgium
Since the Renaissance, Antwerp has been a global standard-bearer of design. Today, it’s more dynamic than 
ever. As other cities battle with overtourism, creative, uncrowded Antwerp increasingly seems like the place to be. 
Spring and fall bring the best weather, but the city is less crowded in the summer. Tipping is not required, as many 
restaurants add a 5% to 10% service charge to the bill.
Bahia, Brazil
Bahia is known for its tree-lined coast, with quiet beaches, rough Chapada Diamantina National Park (an ideal 
destination for hiking and waterfall spotting) and a historic center recognized by UNESCO. The best time to visit is 
during the summer months (as a reminder, in the southern hemisphere, that’s December to March), for great 
weather and Carnival.

In 2018 we created the Student Podcast Challenge, an opportunity for students all around the US to record 
their stories and share them with us. This year’s contest will open on the 6th of next month and close on May 2nd. 
Once again it will be open to students in grades 4 through 3. Is it your first time entering our contest? Don’t fret! 
We’re here to help.
The basics
Students can make a podcast about any topic they’re interested in, as long as they keep it between three to 
eight minutes. The entries should be purely original work by students. Please keep it clean! No offensive language 
will be allowed. And students do need to work with an adult to fill out the submission form to enter the contest.
Where to get started
Choosing a good story is just as important as your audio production or editing skills. For example, a favorite 
entry from last year was a personal story, reporting on a young person’s experience learning to read with dyslexia 
(阅读障碍) and discussions on everyday topics like school lunch and teen fashion. Again, you can choose any topic 
you wish to explore.
The selection
Our judges will select a middle school and high school grand prize winner. The grand prize includes a 
certificate, a trophy, and an interview from NPR. For fourth graders — a new category we created last year — we’ll 
select the best entries and air some or all of those podcasts on NPR programs. In previous years, our winners also 
received additional recognition from their schools, and many were interviewed by local media.
Resources
Before you hit the record button, check out our podcasting resources. We cover everything from how to tell a 
good story, how to sound like yourself on a microphone to how to use music in your podcast.
For more tips and the latest updates on this year’s contest, don’t hesitate to reach out to us at student podcast 
challenge@npr.org. Students, we can’t wait to hear your stories. Good luck!

Four Must-see Night Sky Events in 2025
In the upcoming year, stargazers can anticipate a range of heavenly wonders to get excited for.
Saturn and Venus joint
On January 18, two neighboring worlds of Venus and Saturn will appear less than half a degree apart in the 
sky, about 30 — 45 minutes after sunset. Venus, the brighter, will shine a brilliant red, with Saturn next to it 
appearing more golden. Though you will be able to see both with the naked eye, binoculars will enhance the view.
Lunar eclipse (月食) and blood moon
During a lunar eclipse, one in 2022 seen in Portugal, light casts a burning glow on the moon’s surface in the 
early morning hours of March 14, lasting from 2:26 a.m. to 3:31 a.m. Stargazers can get a great view of the “blood 
moon” across the Americas, weather permitting.
Partial solar eclipse
The sky shifting from deep blue at the top, to burning reds on the horizon, the solar eclipse coming March 29, 
2025, will have the sun appear as a new moon. Visible across large parts of North America, Europe, and Asia, the 
event begins at 4:50 a.m. At 6:47 a.m., the largest part of the sun will be shaded by the moon.
Moon and Mercury meet up
Mercury is tricky to spot because of its closeness to the sun. On June 26, the planet will be easier to glimpse as 
it appears next to our moon around 20 — 30 minutes before the twilight fades. Mercury will shine as a faint red of 
light to the naked eye.
1.Which event takes the longest time?

Here are some of the best music festivals in the UK in 2025.
Field Day
Field Day is a great place to have fun after lining your stomach with the latest vegan food in the super-chill 
village green area. But Field Day has serious muso credit too; it’s carefully picked out to include edgy guitar music, 
shoegaze, alternative R &. B, smart rap, revered DJs and everything else that’s popular. It also boasts one of 
the best stages on the UK festival circuit.
When: May 24
Wilderness Festival
As the ever-magical Oxfordshire August getaway, Wilderness Festival has got better and better over the years. 
But the festival isn’t just about great sounds. From outdoor theatres to talks and debates, horse riding to yurt 
building, a lakeside spa to long-table banquets with leading chefs, this is much more than a music festival. Book 
now if you want in — it’s always a sell-out affair.
When: July 31-August 3
Latitude Festival
This Suffolk’s festival is a very family-friendly affair and the music programming is artfully mixed up with 
comedy, poetry, spoken word, dance and theatre. DJs are hidden in the woods for late night revelry (狂欢) and the 
famous colourful sheep wander the surrounding fields. Only downside: It’s kind of remote transport-wise, almost 
impossible to get to by any means other than Suffolk’s cows.
When: July 24-27
Houghton Festival
This intimate woodland party is one of the UK’s most praiseworthy new festivals, and it’s easy to see why. 
Everything you hear at Houghton is broadcast through the finest sound-systems, selected by Craig Richards, who 
organizes the event. Richards handpicks a killer cast of DJs, including some of the biggest and best names from 
house, techno, disco and more. There’s also visual art and sculpture to engage the eyes as well as ears.
When: August 7-10
1.What makes Wilderness Festival more than just a music festival?
A.Its remote location.
B.Its variety of activities.

Check out these exciting sports around the world, where watching is just as exciting as participating. 
Flora-Bama Mullet Toss
Each year in late April, excited beach-goers travel to the Flora-Bama Lounge in Pensacola, USA for one 
reason: to see a dead mullet get thrown across the state line between Florida and Alabama. The mullet is a plentiful 
fish along the Gulf Coast. It’s often eaten fried. But at this event, this fish doesn’t fry. It flies! 
Stone Skimming
On the last weekend in each September, people from around the world head to a tiny Scottish island, each 
hoping to win a world champion title. However, getting the title is not easy, as competitors must follow a set of 
strict rules: Each participant only has three attempts each round. They won’t be qualified for the next round unless 
the skimmed stone bounces on the water surface at least twice. 
Tau’a
Tapati Rapa Nui is a competition between tribes (部落) on Easter Island, Chile, where each tribe chooses a 
candidate for queen of the festival. Throughout the festivity, different events that earn points to choose the winner 
will take place. One of the most well-known ones is Tau’a, a marathon that begins with Vaka Ama (a traditional 
boating race) and ends with Natación con Pora (swimming). Between the two races is Aka Venga, which requires 
the competitors to carry bunches of bananas that weigh almost 40 kilograms, while they are running. 
Kiotoshi
Kiotoshi is held every six years in Suwa, Japan. The ancient tradition goes back centuries. Men and women 
cut down selected trees, ride them down a mountain rapidly, and pull them through the town to eventually repair 
Suwa Shrine, a complex of four religious buildings. And yes, it is about as dangerous as it seems, but people love it.
1.Where is the fish-throwing event held?
A.In the US. B.In the UK.
C.In Chile
D.In Japan.
2.How many times can the competitors’ skim their stones each round at most?

Where to Eat in Chicago?
This collection of Chicago’s best restaurants provides answers to the classic question: “Where would you dine 
if you had one night in the city?” The list recognizes some all-time greats and restaurants that have pushed food 
boundaries. Enjoy!
Superkhana International
Want to find a great burger and delicious pizza topped with the freshest vegetables of the season? Superkhana 
International surprises diners with its unique combination of Indian cooking, where familiar spices (香料) enhance 
the cuisine. The vegetable-only brunch might be the best in town, featuring fresh produce such as spring beans.
3059 W Diversey Ave, Chicago
Community Tavern
Since Joey and Brenna Beato took over Community Tavern, the restaurant has expanded its menu beyond its 
origins as a neighborhood steakhouse. Kids under 12 eat free on certain days. There’s a section of Asian-style 
dumplings, including one stuffed with mushroom butter and a white prawn carbonara (大虾意面) that is as much 
Thai as Italian.
4038 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago
Johnnie’s Beef
The best example of Chicago’s unique Italian beef sandwich exists outside of the city at Johnnie’s Beef. The 
menu is simple: beef, Italian sausages, and hot dogs. The hot peppers deliver plenty of heat without overpowering 
the meat. Pepper-and-egg sandwiches are also available daily for those needing a meat-free option.
7500 W North Ave, Elmwood Park
Omakase Yume
Korean chef Sangtae Park is full of ideas. He and his wife, Kate, run three restaurants on a corner block in 
West Loop. The most unique may be the oldest, Omakase Yume, a tiny and elegant space where diners can feast 
upon premium fish paired with top ingredients, giving Chicagoans their closest entrance to Japan. Typically, Park’s 
menu runs 16 courses. Wine and sake pairings are available.
