Early fifth-century philosopher St. Augustine famously wrote that he knew what time was

unless someone asked him. Albert Einstein added another wrinkle when he theorized that time

varies depending on where you measure it. Today's state-of-the-art atomic（原子的）clocks have

proven Einstein right. Even advanced physics can't decisively tell us what time is, because the

answer depends on the question you're asking.

Forget about time as an absolute. What if, instead of considering time in terms of astronomy, we

related time to ecology? What if we allowed environmental conditions to set the tempo （节

奏）of human life? We're increasingly aware of the fact that we can't control Earth systems with

engineering alone, and realizing that we need to moderate（调节）our actions if we hope to live

in balance. What if our definition of time reflected that?

Recently, I conceptualized a new approach to timekeeping that's connected to circumstances on

our planet, conditions that might change as a result of global warming. We're now building a clock

at the Anchorage Museum that reflects the total flow of several major Alaskan rivers, which are

sensitive to local and global environmental changes. We've programmed it to match an atomic

clock if the waterways continue to flow at their present rate. If the rivers run faster in the future on

average, the clock will get ahead of standard time. If they run slower, you'll see the opposite

effect.

The clock registers both short-term irregularities and long-term trends in river dynamics. It's a

sort of observatory that reveals how the rivers are behaving from their own temporal frame（时间

框架）， and allows us to witness those changes on our smartwatches or phones. Anyone who

opts to go on Alaska Mean River Time will live in harmony with the planet. Anyone who

considers river time in relation to atomic time will encounter a major imbalance and may be

motivated to counteract it by consuming less fuel or supporting greener policies.

Even if this method of timekeeping is novel in its particulars, early agricultural societies also

connected time to natural phenomena. In pre-Classical Greece, for instance, people "corrected"

official calendars by shifting dates forward or backward to reflect the change of season. Temporal

connection to the environment was vital to their survival. Likewise, river time and other

timekeeping systems we're developing may encourage environmental awareness.

When St. Augustine admitted his inability to define time, he highlighted one of time's most

noticeable qualities: Time becomes meaningful only in a defined context. Any timekeeping system

is valid, and each is as praiseworthy as its purpose.

4．What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?

A．Timekeeping is increasingly related to nature.

B．Everyone can define time on their own terms.

C．The qualities of time vary with how you measure it.

D．Time is a major concern of philosophers and scientists.

5．The author raises three questions in Paragraph 2 mainly to .

A．present an assumption B．evaluate an argument

C．highlight an experiment D．introduce an approach

6．What can we learn from this passage?

A．Those who do not go on river time will live an imbalanced life.

B．New ways of measuring time can help to control Earth systems.

C．Atomic time will get ahead of river time if the rivers run slower.

D．Modem technology may help to shape the rivers' temporal frame.

7．What can we infer from this passage?

A．It is crucial to improve the definition of time.

B．A fixed frame will make time meaningless.

C．We should live in harmony with nature.

D．History is a mirror reflecting reality.

Children may learn new words better when they learn them in the context of other words they

are just learning — according to a new research from the University of East Anglia.

Researchers investigated how 18-24-month-olds learn new words — in the context of words

they already know well and those they don't. The findings help explain how children learn new

words and suggest a new way that parents and carers could help boost language development.

Previous research suggests that when children hear a word they do not know and see an object

they have never seen in the context of some objects that they can already name, such as a toy or a

ball, they guess that the new word refers to the new thing.

Dr. Larissa Samuelson from the university wanted to know if the strength of a child's

knowledge of familiar things—how well they know what "cars" or "balls" are, for example —

mattered for learning new words and remembering them. They asked 82 children to take part in

the study and carry out two experiments among them. And then they got some really surprising

findings.

"We had expected that a stronger knowledge of familiar words would be better for learning

new words, but we found the opposite was true." Dr Samuelson said. "This new study suggests

another way we might be able to help boost children's ability to remember new word-object links -

by teaching them in the context of other things that they are just learning."

It seems counterintuitive, but it is perhaps because the less well-known items don't compete

with the new words as much. If they learn new words in the context of playing with well-known

items such as a ball or book, they don't process the new word as much.

8．What is the purpose of the new research?

A．To challenge the findings of previous studies.

B．To observe the process of children's learning.

C．To better understand children's word learning.

D．To compare children's different learning styles.

9．What can be inferred from Dr. Samuelson's words?

A．Their findings are out of expectation.

B．Their research should focus on children.

C．We should be more patient with children.

D．We need to provide guidance on learning.

10．What does the underlined word "counterintuitive" mean in the last paragraph?

A．Consistent. B．Encouraging. C．Impractical. D．Unreasonable.

11．What does the text mainly tell us?

A．Less familiar words help children learn better.

B．Word-object links contribute to better learning.

C．New research finds the secrets of raising children.

D．Children learn better with the help of their parents.

According to the Solar Energy Industry Association, the number of solar panels installed（安

装）has grown rapidly in the past decade, and it has to grow even faster to meet climate goals.

But all of that growth will take up a lot of space, and though more and more people accept the

concept of solar energy, few like large solar panels to be installed near them.

Solar developers want to put up panels as quickly and cheaply as possible, so they haven't given

much thought to what they put under them. Often, they'll end up filling the area with small stones

and using chemicals to control weeds. The result is that many communities, especially in fanning

regions, see solar farms as destroyers of the soil.

“Solar projects need to be good neighbors," says Jordan Macknick, the head of the Innovative

Site Preparation and Impact Reductions on the Environment(InSPIRE) project. "They need to be

protectors of the land and contribute to the agricultural economy." InSPIRE is investigating

practical approaches to ："low-impact" solar development, which focuses on establishing and

operating solar farms in a way that is kinder to the land. One of the easiest low-impact solar

strategies is providing habitat for pollinators（传粉昆虫）．

Habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change have caused dramatic declines in pollinator

populations over the past couple of decades, which has damaged the U.S. agricultural economy.

Over 28 states have passed laws related to pollinator habitat protection and pesticide use.

Conservation organizations put out pollinator-friendliness guidelines for home gardens,

businesses, schools, cities-and now there are guidelines for solar farms.

Over the past few years, many solar farm developers have transformed the space under their

solar panels into a shelter for various kinds of pollinators, resulting in soil improvement and

carbon reduction. "These pollinator-friendly solar farms can have a valuable impact on everything

that's going on in the landscape," says Macknick.

12．What do solar developers often ignore?

A．The decline in the demand for solar energy.
