Thomas Edison, one of the greatest inventors in history, is often remembered for his famous quote, “Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration.” This perfectly reflects his approach to work and discovery.
Edison held over 1,000 patents for his inventions, including the phonograph and the practical electric light bulb. However, his path was not smooth. He experienced countless failures. It is said that he tried thousands of different materials before finding the right filament for his light bulb. When asked about his failures, he reportedly said, “I have not failed.

Eco-tourism is a form of travel that aims to be environmentally responsible. It focuses on visiting natural areas, conserving the environment, and improving the well-being of local people. Unlike traditional tourism, which can sometimes harm natural and cultural sites, eco-tourism seeks to have a low impact.
Travelers who choose eco-tourism often participate in activities like wildlife watching, hiking, and learning about local cultures. They stay in eco-friendly accommodations, use resources wisely, and respect local customs. The money spent by eco-tourists often goes directly to conservation projects and local communities, helping to protect fragile ecosystems.
As awareness of environmental issues grows, eco-tourism is becoming increasingly popular. It offers a way for people to enjoy the beauty of nature while ensuring it remains for future generations. However, it’s important to choose tour operators who are truly committed to sustainable practices.
29. What is the primary goal of eco-tourism?
A. To travel as cheaply as possible.
B. To be environmentally responsible.
C. To visit as many countries as possible.
D. To experience luxury in natural settings.
30. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a typical eco-tourism activity?
A. Wildlife watching.
B. Shopping in big malls.
C. Hiking.
D. Learning about local cultures.
31. How does eco-tourism benefit local communities?
A. By building large hotels.
B. By providing direct financial support.
C. By introducing foreign lifestyles.
D. By reducing the local population.

Body language is a powerful form of non-verbal communication. It includes facial expressions, gestures, posture, and eye contact. Often, what we say with our bodies can be more telling than our words.
For example, crossed arms might indicate defensiveness or resistance, while leaning forward can show interest and engagement. Maintaining good eye contact generally signals confidence and honesty, whereas avoiding eye contact might suggest nervousness or dishonesty. A genuine smile, which involves the muscles around the eyes, is usually seen as warm and sincere.
Understanding body language can improve our communication skills, helping us in job interviews, presentations, and daily interactions. It allows us to better interpret others’ feelings and intentions, and also to be more aware of the signals we are sending. However, it’s important to remember that cultural differences can influence the meaning of certain gestures.
33. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. The history of verbal communication.
B. The importance of body language.
C. How to give a successful presentation.
D. Cultural differences in language.
34. According to the passage, what might crossed arms suggest?
A. Great confidence.
B. Defensiveness.
C. Deep thought.
D. Extreme tiredness.
35. What is a characteristic of a genuine smile?
A. It only involves the mouth.
B. It is always very loud.
C. It involves the eye muscles.
D. It lasts for a very long time.

Good morning, students. Today, I want to talk about online safety. The internet is useful, but we must be careful. Never share private information like your home address or phone number with strangers online. Be cautious about what you post on social media. Once something is online, it’s hard to remove it completely. My final piece of advice is simple: always think before you click a link or send a message.

Dear Chris,
I’m glad to hear that you’re interested in our Campus Science Festival. It was held last week with the aim of sparking students’ interest in science and technology.
The festival featured a variety of activities. There was an exhibition where students displayed their inventions and science projects. We also attended fascinating lectures given by university professors and engineers. The highlight for many was the robot-making competition, which was both challenging and fun.
I participated in the exhibition with a simple water purification model. The whole experience was inspiring. It not only deepened my understanding of science but also showed me the power of teamwork and creativity. I truly enjoyed every moment of it.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours,
Li Hua
