3 . Ding Ning has won many awards during her table tennis career, including an Olympic gold medal in women’s table tennis singles.
Used to be a table tennis specialist, Ding now wants to be an all-rounder. To make that happen, Ding plans to broaden her studies and talk to like-minded people from different backgrounds.
The world champion seems a little nervous when speaking about her future academic life because she considers it a challenge. “It’s as if you’d grown up studying and were suddenly asked to play table tennis.
This sudden change in her life and the accompanying uncertainties are only part of her challenge — her reputation (名声) is another.
She is not one to step back from adversity (逆境) and has often said that it is important to have a brave heart. As she faces new challenges on her academic path, she believes there are always more solutions than problems. She hopes that in the future, she can teach teenagers about healthy exercise.
A.Today she gives up both of them. |
B.For Ding, fame is a double-edged sword. |
C.Becoming an all-rounder opens up new horizons. |
D.She announced her retirement from the game on Sep.6. |
E.That is not only through her experience, but also through theory. |
F.You still can’t imagine what difficulties an athlete might experience. |
G.She has also chosen to study psychology besides the required courses. |

When I was four years old, I learned an important lesson about trust and water. It was a lesson I would carry with me for the rest of my life.
I remember those lazy summer days when my father and I used to play in the swimming pool. He was a giant in the water, his chest towering above the surface, while I struggled to keep my head above water. One day, he decided it was time to teach me how to swim. Here assured me, “Put your head underwater. It’s not scary, I promise.” But my four-year-old self was too afraid of the unknown depths. What if something happened to me down there? I couldn’t take the risk. My father pointed to a distant flag and said, “Look at that flag!” As soon as I turned to look, his hands pushed my head beneath the water. For a brief moment, I couldn’t see or breathe. Then, just as quickly, he let go, and l emerged breathing for air. It was a memory that stayed with me.
A year later, during a family vacation in Miami when I was five, my father suggested we try the waterslide at the hotel pool. The slide was tall and full of twists and turns that made me dizzy just looking at it. He said, “Let’s go. If you’re scared, we can come back down.” I climbed to the top but refused to slide. I remembered his trick from the previous year. Unexpectedly, he lightly pushed me, and I went sliding down with a splash.
Over the years, with my father’s challenge and company, I tried various kinds of adventurous water sports, including surfing, sailing, and rafting. Gradually, I had turned from distrusting my father to trusting myself. As I turned 18, my father prepared a special gift for me, cliff-diving in Red Rocks, Arizona, where participants jumped off cliffs(悬崖) into bodies of water. After hours of flight and drive, we were there.

7 . “You can love someone and still choose to say goodbye to them.” Tara now says. It’s hard to understand these words until I read Tara Westover’s memoir Educated.
In her book Educated, Tara was raised in rural Idaho. Her dad believed the world was coming to an end, and that the family should interact with the health and education systems as little as possible. Major medical crises went untreated-her mother never recovered from her brain injury. Because Tara and her six siblings worked at their father’s junkyard, none of them received proper homeschooling.
Educated is an amazing story. I found it fascinating how it took studying philosophy and history in school for Tara to trust her own perception of the world. Before stepping foot in a classroom until she was 17, her worldview was entirely shaped by her dad. It wasn’t until she went to Brigham Young University that she realized there were other perspectives on things her dad had presented as fact. Eventually, she earned her doctorate in history from Cambridge. Of the seven Westover siblings, three earned Ph. D.s. I think their childhood experience made them tough and helped them persevere. When you meet Tara, she is never cruel even when mentioning her childhood traumas, including the physical abuse she suffered. I was impressed by how she talks so openly about how ignorant she once was.
Educated touches on the divides in our country: rural versus urban, college-educated versus not. Since she’s spent her whole life moving between these two worlds, I asked Tara what she thought. “I worry that education is becoming a stick that some people use to beat other people into submission or becoming something that people feel arrogant (傲慢的) about,” she said. “I think education is really just a process of self-discovery-of developing a sense of self and what you think. I think of it as this great mechanism of connecting and equalizing.”
Tara’s process of self-discovery is beautifully captured in Educated. She’s a talented writer, and I suspect this book isn’t the last.

8 . What can a seal teach us about the deep ocean? Plenty-as long as it’s wearing satellite-linked devices on its head. Clive McMahon, who works on an elephant seal tagging project at the University of Tasmania in Australia, said that deep-diving seals can provide scientists with a wealth of information on the structure of the ocean floor.
To gather this information, McMahon and his team attached small satellite-linked devices to seals. The devices took measurements of temperature and depth as the seals swam. Since 2004, McMahon’s team has tracked more than 500, 000 individual seal dives beneath the East Antarctic continental shelf, which is the edge of a continent that lies under the ocean.
“Given the remote nature of Antarctica and the surrounding Southern Ocean, only a small part of the Antarctic continental shelf was surveyed by ships in the past,” McMahon said. “So the information available about this area is sparse.” But seals are helping scientists fill in the pieces to this puzzle. In July 2023, McMahon and his team published a study about their work with deep-diving seals in a scientific journal.
Information from seal dives is helping scientists understand how the ocean affects Antarctica’s role in global climate. “We found in some regions that more than 25 percent of previous estimates of the ocean depths were wrong.” said Mark Hindell, who also worked on the study. “We only know this now because the seals were diving hundreds of meters below those depths. In the most extreme cases, they dived more than 1, 000 meters (3,281feet) deeper than what we thought was the ‘ocean floor’”.
The data, or information, from the dives also revealed new underwater features, including troughs, which are long, wide and deep sunken areas in the ocean floor. Thanks to the seals, the scientists also found a deep canyon near the Vanderford Glacier, which is as low-moving river of ice hundreds or thousands of meters deep.
