Manfred Steiner had a successful and productive career as a doctor, helping generations of medical students learn about hematology(血液学). But all along, he had a strong feeling that he should be doing something else: studying physics. At age 89, he has finally realized that dream, earning his PhD in physics from Brown University.
“I am really on top of the world. It’ s my third doctoral degree, but this is the one I really cherish a lot. made it—and made it at this age,” said Steiner in an interview with NPR. “I always had this dream:Someday I’ d like to become a physicist.”
Steiner grew up in Vienna. When he was just a teenager, he was fascinated with physics.  However, persuaded by his parents, he decided to pursue a medical career instead. But during his studies in Vienna, physics still tugged at him. “When I was a medical student, I used to go to the institute of physics, which was very close to the medical sc hool,” he said, “and listen to some lectures about physics there.”
When Steiner moved permanently to the US from Vienna, he focused on medicine and hematology, training at Tufts University and MIT. He then became a professor at Brown and led the hematology section in the university’ s medical school.
It was only after Steiner retired from his career in medicine in 2000 that he was finally able to scratch the physics itch(痒). He started taking classes at MIT. “I had to do a lot of physics classes at MIT before being allowed to start graduate studies,” he said.
Steiner worked slowly—he’ s a grandfather who likes to spend time with his family, and health problems have been a concern—but the credits kept piling up. And before long, Steiner was eyeing yet another PhD.
“You know, it took a long time,” he said. “There were very serious health problems in between. But fortunately, I’ m here now and I’ ve overcome these problems.”

In 2018, the state of California was on fire. Alexandria Villasenor, who was 13 at the time, witnessed the destruction of Northern California’s Camp Fire, which would go on to burn more than 150,000 acres of land. Villasenor was scared. “That’s when I foun d out how important climate education was,” she reflected. “And just how much we lacked climate education these past couple of years.”
Villasenor, now 15, is determined to have a bigger conversation. She quickly realized the fight requires international, government-level changes. For her, what started as local concern turned into a year-long protest (抗议) in front of the United Nations’ New York City headquarters and a global campaign for more compulsory climate education. She sat on a bench in front of the headquarters, pleading for the world’s leaders to take climate change seriously.
Her action received national attention, with millions of other students around the world joining in the movement. “It’s completely unacceptable to not learn anything about o ur planet and our environment in school, after all the young people would ‘inherit’ the Earth.” Villasenor said, “That’s why I think that climate education is so important, and that’s why I concentrate on it now.”
Right now, Villasenor is working with the Biden-Harris administration on its climate plan, which has promised to center the needs of young people and communities most impacted by climate change. S
he even spoke at the 2020 Democratic National Convention. “That was definitely a huge moment when I r ealized that people were listening to the voices of me and youth climate activists,” Villasenor said.
When she isn’t connecting with her fellow youth activists or holding elected officials accountable to the climate concerns of their young voters, Villasenor is like most other teens. “My favorite thing to do, of course, is sleep.” she said. “I like to read a lot. I like fantasy books, normally. I also like to write.”

B．Young people should do more things for the earth so as to inherit it.
C．The protest aimed to fight against government’s administration.

Specialists(专家)say it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture. “Culture shock” is what these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment. The specialist
s say that there are three stages of culture shock. In the first stage, the newcomers like their new environment. Then, when the fresh experience dies,
they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else. In the last stage, the newcomers begin to get used to their surroundings and, as a result, enjoy their life more.
There are some evident factors(因素)in culture shock. The weather may be unpleasant. The customs may be different. The public service systems—the telephones, post office, or transportation—may be difficult to work out. The simplest things seem to be the biggest problems. The language may be difficult.
Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that. But culture shock surprises most people. Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their own country. Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same positions as they have back home. They find themselves without any identify. They have to build a new self-image.
Culture shock gives rise to (使发生)a feeling of helplessness. This feeling may be homesickness. When homesick, people feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the
strange environment, and create an escape inside their room for a sense of security (安全). This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for a short time, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture. Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience—these are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock.
12. When people move to a new country, they_______.
A．will get used to their new surroundings with difficulty
B．have well prepared for the new surroundings
C．will get used to the culture of the country quickly

13. According to the passage, factors that give rise to culture shock include all of the following except_______.
register forA．the language communication B．the weather conditions and customs C．the public service systems D．the homesickness

A．the fewer difficulties you may have abroad B．the more difficulties you may have abroad
C．the more money you will earn abroad D．the less homesick you may feel abroad 15. The writer tells us that the best way to overcome culture shock is to _______.
A．protect ourselves from unfamiliar environment B．develop a strange sense of self-protection
C．get familiar with new culture D．return to our own country
