A PhD student inMichigandefended her paper while wearing a skirt madeof rejection letters she received while studying. 29-year-old Caitlin Kirby printed out 17 of her rejection letters — from scholarships, academic journals, and conferences — then folded each one into a fan. She connected them in rows, and by the end she designed the item into a skirt and wore it.
She said that the idea behind her unique clothing item came out of a desire to normalize rejection and take pride in overcoming it. "The whole process of revisiting those old letters and making that skirt sort of reminded me that you have to apply to a lot of things to succeed," she said. "A natural part of the process is to get rejected along the way."
Caitlin's adviser, Julie Libarkin, a professor of earth and environmental science atMichiganStateUniversity, also encourages the acceptance of failure in her students. Libarkin believes it's important for students to get into habit of applying for things, and to get used to the feeling of rejection, so she encourages them to chase after any opportunity that comes their way. If a student doesn't get the grant or the spot in the academic journal, that's okay. They'll still have learned something in the process.
As for Caitlin? Her rejections over the years have led to great things: Since her doctorate, she's won a scholarship to do further research on urban agriculture inGermany.
Currently, she's a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. As for what the future holds? "I'm prepared to receive a few more rejection letters along the way," she joked heartily, "Maybe I'll make a longer skirt."
4. What can we learn about Caitlin Kirby's rejection letters?
A. She received 17 rejections in total.
B. 29 of her rejections were from journals.
C. The rejections were connected into a fan.
D. She made some rejection letters into a skirt.

B. Education is the entrance to success.
C. Self-respect earns more respect.

With graduation days being celebrated all over the country, a student who has to use a wheelchair honored his mother on his graduation day in a special way. Easley High School graduate, Alex Mays surprised people present when he got up and walked across the stage at Clemson's Littlejohn Coliseum.
“I was really happy—it made me feel good,” Alex said.

Last fall, Alex said that he would walk across the stage to get his diploma to honor his late mother. He practiced hard and worked with a physical therapist for 9 months to complete his plan.
The only help Alex got was from his mom's best friend, Tonya Johnson, who pushed his wheelchair to the stage wearing one of his mother's favorite shirts. “I had support from my family. I couldn't have done it without them,” Alex said.
“Alex made everyone in the building feel encouraged that day” Pickens County School District public information specialist John Eby said. “The school teachers knew he was going to get up to get his diploma, but the distance he walked was a surprise, even to them,” Eby said.
“Some of life's most important tests aren’t given in a classroom; Alex tested himself and passed with flying color1 s,” Eby added.

One weekend I went toBuffaloto talk at a writers' conference organized by a group of women writers. The women were serious about their writing skills, and the articles they had written were solid and useful. They asked me to take part in a radio talk show earlier in the week to publicize the conference-they would be with the host in the studio and I would be on a telephone linking from my apartment inNew York.
The appointed evening arrived, and my phone rang, and the host came on and greeted me. He said he had three lovely ladies in the studio with him and he was eager to find out what we all thought of the present state of literature and what advice we had for all his listeners who were members of the literati and had literary ambitions
themselves.This hearty introduction dropped like a stone among us, and none of the three lovely ladies said anything, which I thought was the proper response.
The silence lengthened, and finally I said, “I think we should stop mentioning the words literature and literary and literati. We're here to talk about the skills of writing.” Iknew that the host had been given information about what kind of writers we were and what we wanted to discuss. But he had no other preparation. "Tell me what insights do you have about the literary experience inAmericatoday?” Silence also greeted this question.
He didn’t know what to do with that, and he began to mention the names of authors like Ernest Hemingway and Saul Bellow and William Styron, whom we surely regarded as literary giants. We said those writers didn't happen to be our models, and we mentioned people like Lewis Thomas and Joan Didion and Gary Wills, whom he hadn't heard of. We explained that these were writers we admired. “But don't you want to write anything literary?” our host said We were speechless.
It was one of the all-time upset radio talk shows.
12. What do we know about the talk show?
A. It was organized by women writers.
B. It was publicized at the conference.
C. The author went toBuffaloto take part in it.

13. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 mean?
A. The introduction struck us heavily with a stone.
B. The introduction received embarrassing response.
C. The introduction increased the listeners' interest.
D. The introduction carried the host's praise for us.
14. What was the author's reaction when the host mentioned the three great literary- giants?

B. Inspired.
C. Uninterested.
D. Satisfied.
15. Who may be the author's model?
A. Joan Didion.

Benefits (好处) of Exercising Outdoors
Compared with traditional indoor workouts, outdoor exercise — sometimes called green exercise —provides more benefits. Here are several benefits of doing your workouts outdoors.
____16____The first, and perhaps most important benefit, is that being in nature increases feelings of well-being and life satisfaction. In fact, simply being outside and breathing fresh air can make you light-hearted. Research shows that being in nature, also called forest bathing, reduces stress and increases relaxation, and you'll see greater levels of joy in your life.
It's free. There are many benefits of working with an exercise professional in a gym or fitness facility, but doing outdoor exercise is a great way to save money.____17____For example, you can choose some common activities such as biking jogging, hiking or playing tennis.
It's social and increases responsibility.____18____You can also go out with your partner or children at the park for some family fun. If so, you've added two main parts to your exercise program: social support and responsibility.____19____
It doesn't take a lot of time to see the benefits. It's important to note that the benefits of outdoor exercise start at 120 minutes per week.____20____You can have a 25-minute walk every workday or a two-hour hike on weekends. More time spent exercising outside beyond those 120 minutes will have more benefits, but that's a great goal for most people.

C. You can get support from your family and friends.
