21、As a species,ginkgo(银杏)trees, which enjoy a reputation as "The Tree that Time Forgor", have existed relatively unchanged for 200 million years.While scientists have revealed the mysteries of the tree's long life, it won't help humans soon.
Scientists in China examined the genetic component of very young ginkgo trees,comparing samples between several hundred and a thousand years old.【1】The scientists also found that, unlike other plants, ginkgo genes with regard to aging do not automatically become active at a certain stage in their life cycle.【2】This explains why old ginkgo trees produce as many seeds as young ones and how they continue to grow wide for as long as they live.
Furthermore,ginkgo trees are born with protective biochemical characteristics,in the form of hormones, antioxidants, and bactericides.【3】Also, they have evolved adaptations that enable them to resist pests and climate extremes.
【4】Over time,weather and other factors limit upright growth and cause leaves to die.Yet,even as this aging occurs, the cell-reproducing system of the gingko tree remains active, maintaining healthy growth.Growth typically starts slowing down after 200 years, but the trees remain healthy.Each year, they renew their parts, adding new wood,leaves, roots, and reproductive organs.In theory,gingko trees should live forever.【5】
A.Of course,these trees do age, to some extent.
B.Their immune systems were found to be similar.
C.That is, ginkgo trees have no genetic program for death.
D.All of these strengthen their resistance to diseases and bacteria.
E.While they contain minor poison, humans still eat their fruits for health reasons.
F.However,ginkgo trees still die from pests,drought,and other damaging events.
G.They have survived some greatest catastrophes, such as the extinction of the dinosaurs.
22、From Alton Towers to Legoland, our experts pick their favorite British theme parks, highlighting the best roller coasters, character-led attractions, and animal safaris (狩猎旅行).
Drayton Manor
The Staffordshire theme park includes rides for all ages but stands out for having hit on a winning formula for young families with its expanding Thomas Land section. The 286-acre site is set in woodlands but the main village is enough for little legs to explore, making it well suited to pre-and primary school children.
Paultons Family Theme Park
On the edge of New Forest National Park, in Hampshire, Paultons Family Theme Park sits in 140 acres of attractive parkland. Although overshadowed by Thorpe Park and Alton Towers in terms of big rides, the park is home to Peppa Pig World, as well as 60 rides and attractions, and is best for families with young children.
Chessington World of Adventures
This park in Surrey has injected novelty (新奇) this year with the launch of its exclusive Gruffalo River Ride Adventure, raising its status as a family-friendly destination. The park also provides added family value with the opportunity to get a close-up interaction with animals including monkey walk-throughs and the Zufari safari experience.
Legoland Windsor
If you’re looking for stomach-in-the-mouth roller coasters, Legoland is not for you. This is the entry-level theme park for families with kids below the age of 12, with bucket-loads to keep them happy. Now in its third decade, set in lovely grounds, the theme park still has some of the charm of the original Danish parent park, with plenty of giraffes, crocodiles and pirates made out of Lego bricks spread over the rides.

23、We all need money to survive in the world. Usually, our job’s salary is adequate for our basic needs. 【1】 Likely not. And your main job may not be as secure as you would like. Some consider it possible for robots to take over about 40 percent of all jobs in 2025.
Enter the sideline. A reliable one is undoubtedly helpful in offering more financial security; furthermore, there are other benefits.
One of the best parts is that a sideline can help you get out of your comfort zone. Depending on what your sideline is, you may encounter different kinds of people. 【2】 You can make new friends, discover something new or develop yourself at a personal level.
A sideline can also give you a competitive advantage in your career. When you’re devoted to a single career, you’ll often end up with a similar thinking style as those who share the same training and job responsibilities as you. A sideline will challenge you to learn new skills. 【3】. This can help you become unique in your main career since you’ll bring those new skills and perspectives to your core work role.
【4】. A sideline isn’t an obligation. You choose to do it. The flexible nature of a sideline is attractive to many people. You have the freedom to decide how much time you want to spend doing it.
Most importantly, you can live out your passion with a sideline. Your main job may pay the bills, but maybe it doesn’t match your passion. 【5】 Let’s say you are a dog person.

24、Every time we open a magazine, turn on the TV, or drive past a billboard, we see how far our personal reality is from the standard publicized by the media. 【1】 . Here are some thoughts that help you embrace your true beauty.
Look around you
Take a good look at the people in your life that you love—your parents, your siblings, and your close friends. It's likely that most of them aren't as beautiful as public figures, and yet, are they not beautiful to you? look at the familiar faces, the warm smiles, the kind gestures, the comforting bodies and arms that embrace you. 【2】 . You see them as truly beautiful people -and they view you the same way.
Stop struggling
There are some elements of our faces and bodies we simply cannot change. 【3】 . Struggles and resistance do nothing but push further away from recognizing our true beauty.
【4】
Sometimes we become so disconnected from our true beauty that we neglect and mistreat our bodies, further making us less confident. But as you begin to treat your body more lovingly, you will feel better mentally and physically, affording the clarity to recognize your true inner and outer beauty. Feed your body with nutritious foods. Move your body through exercise every day for at least twenty to thirty minutes. 【5】 .
As Kahlil Gibran said, “Beauty is not in face;beauty is a light in the heart." Allow the light in your heart to shine for yourself and others, and in so doing, your entire being will glow with a fire of beauty.

D.Beauty is the best version of yourself,inside and out
