We swim into it, live near it, build beside it, and even imagine about living under the sea. But were terrified of it, too. For much of our history, we have turned to “hard engineering” to control the marine (海洋) environment and manage its influence on us. We build dams, sea walls and channels. But all these efforts seem to fail. The sea has a habit of taking back its own. And we suffer.Johnston, a marine ecologist, is advocating for “blue engineering” the marine version of the “greenengineering” movement on land that has seen nations like Singapore building the walls and roofs of the concretejungle with plant life.We are expanding further into the marine environment. This practice docs harm lo marine ecosystems. Were loving the sea to death, but weve not been thinking about design of structures (建筑物) with respect to ecology. Some coastal structures create shade, which reduces the growth of seaweed. Bright lights at night contuse species such as turtles. Thats why blue engineering comes in.Throughout the world people are starting to turn things around. Researchers with the World Harbour Project are creating tiles ( 瓦 片 ) similar to the natural structures found on rocky shores with 3D printing technology. These make more attractive homes for marine creatures. Researchers are also actively seeding these tiles with local seaweeds and creatures such as the Sydney rock oyster, which is particularly good at improving water quality. Twelve harbours around the world are taking part in this marine tile experiment, each working with their own unique marine life.D.It makes living under sea impossible.Para.3 is mainly about the to introduce the project of “blue engineering”.A.drawbacksB.reasonsC.proceduresD.measuresWhich of the following is a form of “blue engineering”?A.Constructing buildings with plant life. B.Expanding into marine environments. C.Creating an artificial reef with old tyres.D.Building structures benefiting sea creatures.What is the writers feeling towards the present situation of marine environment?A.RelievedB.DoubtfulC.SatisfiedD.DisappointedMill 180 Park is truly a park for the 2lst century, designed to copy all of the great urban parks -Central Park in New York City, Hyde Park in London and Ueno Park in Tokyo. Through the use of computerized sound and some other modern systems, we ve brought the outside in, surrounding our visitors with green space and a remarkable sense of the natural world.We spent a lot of time trying to learn why these parks are so beloved, what makes them work so well for their sponsors, and how they provide a place of rest for so many.A wake up call for the sensesThese parks are beautiful. They provide much needed relief from the daily stress of city living in any particular moment. But with the good, every one of these parks suffer from the same shortcoming-they are not fit to live when the weather is bad. What this means is that our parks are only really available to ussome of the time.Change in the airEnjoying Mill 180 Park is not weather dependent. We used modern buildingtechniques and technology to create a park that can be enjoyed in every season, during every type of weather.Our focusWhile imagining the possibilities for Mill 180 Park, we focused our designIts a far cry from, he days when huge number, of old tyres were thrown, into the sea to build “artificial reef” (礁石 ). Those clumsy early attempts are now costing millions to remove, showing just how far we have yet to go in understanding how best to co-habit with the underwater world.What do we know about “hard engineering”?It has improved sea environment.It can control the influence of sea.It has failed to achieve its purpose.第 1 页/（共 12 页）第 2 页/（共 12 页）process on five characteristics that were common in all of our favorite urban parks: BEAUTY: Including natural and man-made qualities, delighting the senses of visitors. GREENERY: Bringing nature to the city, with a variety of plants and green spaces. MINGLING: Providing a place for people who wouldnt normally come into contact to meet and share experiences. TRANQUILITY: Offering a place away from the noise, waste, and excitement of city life. PROGRAMMING: Serving as a site for artistic, cultural, and amusement events that bring the community together.When you visit, you ll be aware on an intellectual level that you are not inan expansive outdoor space, but your senses will tell you otherwise.Opening time and priceAll months of the year.Admission is free from Jan .I to Nov.30.Take Menno Baars for instance. He works full time as a cardiologist(心脏病专家)in a hospital in Holland. Full time might still be an understatement-as a cardiologist he spends about 60 hours a week in the hospital. However， after a long day of work，he likes to come home and spend hours doing what is his great passion: painting.How can he find the time and energy to live a life that few others can pursue? Actually it is quite simple. If you like what you do, you will find a way to do it. Dont get me wrong. I love cardiology, but it is not a very creative profession, says Baars.It is a specialty that is based on strict treatment guidelines, without much room for your own ideas and creativity. That is why painting as a hobby is so wonderful. There are no rules and I can do whatever I want.Although there are no rules in painting, for Baars it is still some sort of a custom. The only thing that reminds the painter Baars of the cardiologist Baars is his white coat and his surgical gloves which he wears every time he is painting. I sometimes start at 10 at night and can continue working until 4:30 in the morning and still make it to work on time that same day, says Baars.That is the advantage of my training as a medical specialist. I get used to making crazy hours and long nights.You would think that someone who is so driven by his passion for painting was already fascinated by art as a little kid. Not at all, says Baars unexpectedly. I never dreamed of becoming a painter. My parents expected me to finish college and pursue a professional career. I only realized my passion for painting after having completed medical school. Once I was attracted by a painting of Miro, but could not afford it. So I decided to paint myself. I just startedMill 180 Park was created .with little time and effortBwith much time and effortCwith the help of foreign designers Dwith the help of sponsors and visitorsWhich of the following is true?The park is the same in design as any one of the world.You will never be able to enjoy the park when the weather is bad.Visit to the park is free of charge.The park is environment-friendly and pleasant.Some jobs are so demanding that there is not a free moment to do something else than to recover and rest.Most physicians have great difficulty starting or even maintaining a hobby. But there are exceptions.painting lines, but within minutes a beautiful dove was on the canvas. I suddenly realized this is what I want to do.A successful doctor. A successful painter. It seems unfair to have the two identities in one person. What do his fellow cardiologists think of his passion for painting？“They accept it and actually appreciate it as well. You see，if I was a cardiologist who provided suboptimal(未达最佳标准的)care for his patients，they would not agree. My chairman told me a few years ago in the hospital that he would rather see me reading cardiology books at night than see me holding a paint brush.”“I used to pack a lot of ideas into each painting-different shapes，colors and so on. I still have tons of ideas， which is not the problem. But I do strive for more simplicity. To depict a simple idea clearly is my goal. Also my technique has improved over time. When I started out，the paint would sometimes flake(剥落)if the basis was not good，but that doesnt happen anymore these days.”Menno Baars never has any doubts when he is painting. However，he does like the response he gets from themost important woman in his life. His wife is the first to see each newly-finished painting. Sometimes when I finish a第 3 页/共 12 页第 4 页/共 12 页new painting in the middle of the night, I wake her up to see if she likes it. She doesnt always like to be woken up, but she always gives an honest answer.Even if she doesnt like it, for me the painting is finished. I wont change it afterwards. It is more of the feeling that once my wife has seen it, it is ready to be presented to the rest of the world.Why does Menno Baars like painting? ABecause he dislikes rules very much.Because he feels bored with his work.Because he wants to pursue a career as a painter.Because he finds painting a creative process.题Baars wears his working uniform while painting to .要答Ahelp him work late into the nightBmake himself feel easy and comfortable Cremember his identity as cardiologistDremind himself to work on time next morning 9Baars developed the hobby of painting .线内不Awhen he completed a beautiful paintingBwhen he was a very young child Cto live up to his parents expectationsDto spend his leisure time at home 10What is Baars colleagues attitude towards him?They cant hide their envy at his success.封They dont expect too much of his paintings.密They think he should put his job as a doctor first.They dont think he should spend time painting. 11Baars is trying to make his paintings .Afull of different colorsBclearly convey a simple idea Cspecial with creative ideas Dimprove with modern techniques12If Menno Baars gets a negative response from his wife, he .Awill probably feel very disappointedBwill still keep the painting and have it presented Cwill accept her advice and change the paintingDwill never ask for her opinion any moreChoosing where to live may be one of the biggest decisions youll make when you move to Sydney, but youll have plenty of help.Temporary arrival accommodationBefore you move to Sydney, we recommend that you book a temporary place to stay.

However, we often have less awareness of preventative actions we should take to help with mental health problems. While our mental health may be fine right now, many of us will struggle at some point. 16 Its impossible to get through life without challenges, but our mental health prevention habits can help us get through difficult times. 17Keep active. The more active you physically, mentally and socially are, the higher the level of your mental wellness is likely to be. So go for walks and learn something new. There are many other ways to be active. 18Be connected.

Everyone has a strong 21, and talks at the same time, and no one has a 22leading to heated arguments. We often talk or even debate with each other on different topics. 23a family like mine has made me more 24 about the world around me, making me tend to question anything anyone tells me. But it has also made me realize that Im not a good listener. And when I say “listening”, Im not 25to the nodding-your-head-and- 26-answering-Uh-huh-or-Ooh-I-see variety. I mean the kind of listening where you find yourself deeply 27 with the person youre speaking with, when his story becomes so 28 that your world becomes less about you and more about him. No, I was never very good at that.I spent summer in South Africa two years ago. I worked for a good non-profit 29 called Noah, which works 30 on behalf of children affected by AIDS. But 31 you asked me what I really did in South Africa, Id tell you one thing: I listened, and I listened. Sometimes I 32 , but mostly listened.And had I not spent two months 33 , I might have missed the 34 moment when a quiet little girl at one of Noahs community centers, orphaned（ 孤 儿 ）at the age of three, whispered after a long 35 , “I love you.”21AqualificationBinfluenceCopinionDassumption22AcommitmentBproblemCscheduleDrequest23ABelonging toBBelieving inCBringing upDStruggling for24AanxiousBcuriousCnervousDadventurous25AobjectingBappealingCturningDreferring26ArudelyBloudlyCpolitelyDgratefully 36that summer, I knew how to hear.

That is to say, most of us marry creativity to our concept of self: We are either “creative” people or we arent， without much of a middle ground.Pillay, a tech businessman and Harvard professor has spent a good part of his career destroying these ideas.Pillay believes that the key to unlocking your creative potential is to dismiss the conventional advice that urges you to“believe in yourself”. In fact, you should do the exact opposite: believe you are someone else.In a r
