Sri Nihal Tammana, age 13, of Edison, New Jersey, was named a winner of the 2022 Gloria Barron Prize for
Young Heroes. The Barron Prize annually honors 25 outstanding young leaders who have made a significant positive
impact on people, their communities, and the environment.
Nihal founded Recycle My Battery to promote and facilitate the recycling of used batteries. His nonprofit places
free battery recycling bins(箱子)and educates young people and adults about battery recycling. In just three years
he has built a team of more than 250 student volunteers across the globe who have recycled nearly 200,000 batteries
and educated millions of people. Nihal learned at age 10 that 15 billion batteries are thrown away each year and that
most end up in landfills(垃圾填埋地)where they pollute groundwater, harm the ecosystem, and can cause
catastrophic fires. Inspired to tackle the problem, he began collecting used batteries from his community. He put them
in free recycling bins at stores like Staples until he was told he was bringing too many and had to stop.
Undeterred, he reached out for help from Call2Recycle, the largest battery recycling nonprofit in North America.
Call2Recycle agreed to assist and provided recycling bins for free, which were placed in schools, libraries, and other
public places. Nihal’s organization now operates across the U.S. and is expanding to other countries including Canada,
Switzerland, and India. “Earth gives us so much—oxygen, food, water— everything! So it’s important that we give
something back when we can,” says Nihal.
The Barron Prize was founded in 2001 by author T. A. Barron. “Nothing is more inspiring than stories about
heroic people who have truly made a difference to the world,” says T. A. Barron. “And we need our heroes today more
than ever. Not celebrities, but heroes — people whose character can inspire us all. That is the purpose of the Barron
Prize: to shine the spotlight on these amazing young people so that their stories will inspire others.”
4. What does Recycle My Battery intend to do?
A. Protect the earth from used batteries. B. Promote used batteries across the globe.
C. Make money by collecting used batteries. D. Stop people throwing used batteries away.
5. What does the underlined word “Undeterred” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Undiscouraged. B. Unprepared. C. Unsurprised. D. Uninterested.
6. How did Call2Recycle help Nihal’s organization?
A. By making it go global. B. By offering free recycling bins.
C. By providing financial support. D. By buying more used batteries.
7. What is the text mainly about?
A. The importance of recycling batteries.
B. The impact of batteries on the environment.
C. The achievements of the Barron Prize winners.
D. The inspiring story of a young environmentalist.

More than 50 million people in Asia, Africa, the Middle East and elsewhere follow pastoralism(游牧) as a way of
life. The practice has survived for so long because it is designed to change with the environment. Pastoralists move
with animals to find new lands and water, leaving behind eaten plants to regrow.
Mongolia is well known for its pastoralism. Agvaantogtokh and his family are herders(牧民). On horseback,
he rides with nearly a thousand sheep and goats to help them find water. Sometimes, he and his wife, Nurmaa, stop to
help struggling young ones, weak after a difficult winter.
For families like Agvaantogtokh’s, pastoralism is more than a profession. It is a cultural identity that connects
generations. At its heart is the human connection to animals. While they consider the animals as their property, they
also see them as living beings working alongside them.
Researchers say herders believe in “animal agency”. Agvaantogtokh lets his animals choose the food they eat and
where they find water. To him, restricting an animal’s movement and asking it to eat the same thing each day is like
putting a person in prison.
In Mongolia, weather extremes are a part of life. When Agvaantogtokh thinks about climate change, he is
concerned about humans and animals. Continuous dry and warm weather affects Mongolia. Since 1940, the
government says, average temperatures have risen 2.2 degrees Celsius. To keep their practice alive, pastoralists seek
ways to modernize. In Mongolia, Lkhaebum recently began using a small vehicle to more easily search for horses.
The family uses electricity and has other technologies including a TV and a washing machine. They also use a
cellphone to follow the weather and access social media where herders share information.
One of the biggest threats to pastoralism comes from within. Nurmaa and Agvaantogtokh’s 18-year-old daughter
studies medicine. Their son spoke about becoming a herder when he was a child, but not anymore. “I won’t regret
anything if my child won’t be a herder,” Nurmaa said. “I would like them to do what they desire to do.”
8. What contributes to the survival of pastoralism?
A. Huge pastoralist populations. B. Adaptation to the environment.
C. Herders’ desire to travel to new places. D. Slow development of modernization.
9. What does pastoralism mean to Agvaantogtokh?
A. The distinct identity of animals. B.A poorly-paid profession.
C. An out-of-date lifestyle. D. The bond between man and animals.
10. What does “animal agency” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Animals’ living in cages. B. Animals’ eating the same thing.
C. Animals’ struggling in shelters. D. Animals’ moving around freely.
11. What is a big challenge for pastoralism?
A. Modern technology. B. No government support.
C. Young people’s disinterest in it. D. Lack of information exchange.

Dr Paul King at Texas Christian University has been an influential scholar in the field of communication studies
for 30 years. I spoke to King about his research into “state anxiety in listening performance”. Most of us believe that
anxiety impacts only the person giving the speech or presentation. Dr King has discovered that audience members feel
anxiety, too.
King says that listening is a tiring activity because the learner is continually adding material to be remembered-
