A nurse has fulfilled (实现) a promise she made to her patient four years ago to one day attend
her daughter's graduation from nursing school.
Edina Habibovic, 22, graduated from Chamberlain University's College of Nursing in 2020. Her
mother, Sevala Habibovic, 46, died in 2017 after a two year fight with breast cancer.
“I thought the medical field wasn't for me. Then, my mom got sick and I had all the experience
going in and out of the hospital, ” Edina told Good Morning America. “When my mom passed away,
I thought, ‘I want to do this.’”she said.
Sanja Josipovic, who at the time worked as a home health nurse with Northwestern Medicine in
Winfield, Illinois, cared for Sevala inside her home. They often chatted and shared the latest news
with each other over six months of care.
“She was most worried about Edina because she was young and hadn't finished school yet, ”
Sanja said. “We are like sisters; we care about and trust each other. She was a powerful and strong
minded woman. She wasn't scared to die; she was just worried about her kids and husband.”
Edina said her mother lived for being with her family and taking care of people. “When Sanja
was working, my mom would still try to make her something to eat, no matter how sick she was, ”
Edina added. When Sevala's life was coming to an end, she asked Sanja to take her place at her
youngest daughter's nursing school graduation. “That was the only thing she was going to miss—
Edina's graduation.” said Sanja, who is a mother of three herself. She agreed.
Due to COVID - 19, there was no graduation or pinning ceremony. Edina's manager at
Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital decided to host a pinning ceremony for her and have Sanja present
the pin. “Sanja has fulfilled her promise, ” Edina said.
Edina and Sanja are now caring for patients alongside one another as colleagues at Marianjoy.

A team of researchers from several institutions in the UK and one in Estonia has created a type
of buoy( 浮 标 ) that has proven to be effective at frightening seabirds, thus preventing them from
getting caught in gillnets—a type of vertical fishing net that is made of a material that makes it nearly
invisible underwater.
Every year, hundreds of thousands of seabirds die when they get caught in gillnets. Some
estimates suggest that up to a half-million birds are caught in them each year. Over the years,
researchers have created devices to prevent the birds from trying to catch fish near or in gillnets, but
those didn't work well.
To find a way that would work for all seabirds, the researchers first studied seabirds in a general
sense, looking to find things that they would avoid. They noted that seabirds avoided eye contact with
other creatures. Then the researchers came up with a simple idea. They put a small pole to a regular
buoy and then attached a pair of googly eyes(金鱼眼) to the top of it. They made the eyes big enough
so that even birds with poor eyesight, such as geese, would see them. Adding to the effectiveness of
the device, waves made the eyes move back and forth. And the wind made the buoy spin very slowly,
making sure that birds from every direction would get a good look at the eyes.
To test their idea, the researchers selected several sites near gillnets and counted how many birds
approached and how many attempted to catch fish near the nets. They then set up their googly-eyed
buoys and once again counted birds. Over the course of 62 days, they found the number of birds that
tried to catch fish near the gillnets dropped by approximately 25% for a distance of up to 50 meters.
They also found that the birds were less likely to fish near where the buoys had been for up to three
weeks after they had been removed.
28. What is the function of paragraph 2?
A. Introducing a new topic to discuss. B. Providing background information.
C. Summarizing the previous paragraph. D. Pointing out the main idea of the text.
29. Why did the researchers make the googly eyes big?
A. To ensure all the seabirds can see them. B. To clearly observe seabirds' eye contact.
C. To allow them to survive the strong wind. D. To effectively identify the right direction.
30. What does the researchers' test result mainly suggest?
A. The new device still needs improving. B. Gillnets are a death valley for seabirds.
C. Seabirds hardly catch fish near the nets. D. The googly-eyed buoy proves effective.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. A group of researchers interested in seabirds.
B. A way to help seabirds catch fish effectively.
C. A device keeping seabirds safe from gillnets.
D. A googly-eyed buoy guiding seabirds to hunt.
D
Happiness, that short and delightful feeling, seems all too rare in 2020. But there's one place
where happiness is the name of the game. And, no, we're not talking about Disney World.
Denmark, currently the second happiest country on earth, is now home to The Happiness
Museum, which is created by The Happiness Research Institute, a think tank focusing on well-being,
happiness and quality of life. The eight-room museum is devoted to literally bringing happiness to
life, reminding visitors what it is that gives value to them and makes them feel good. Led by Meik
Wiking, author of three international bestsellers, the museum opened on July 14 in a small 240-
square-meter space in Copenhagen.
Visitors to the museum will find many interactive exhibits. Each room is devoted to a specific
approach to studying happiness. The politics of happiness exhibit asks questions about the role of
elections and GDP in determining national happiness. There's also a geography of happiness section
that explores the role of built environments on happiness levels, as well as showing a world map with
the World Happiness Report 2020's happiness ranking of 153 countries. There are other sections like
the science of happiness, the history of happiness and what lies in store for the future.
Certain museum exhibits include visitors' personal perception of happiness. Can you determine
which half of the Mona Lisa's mouth smiles? How do you explain the meaning of happiness? The
museum houses a vast collection of donated artworks donated by people from around the globe,
which remind them of happy moments in their lives.
While the museum is a very optimistic place to be, it's also aware of the difficulties of being a
public place in the middle of a global pandemic (流行病). The museum has strict policies in place to
ensure social distancing and safety, including only allowing 50 visitors at a time and a one-way path
through the museum.
32. What's the main purpose of creating The Happiness Museum?
A. To remind people to read books on happiness
B. To help visitors learn and experience happiness.
C. To advise visitors to share happiness with others.
