Observational Report on the Living Habits of the Horse-Bodied Winged Beast-
A Case Study on Little Ica Research Project：Caprism's Cryptozoological Lineage Study
Objective
Through long-term observation of the winged beast's diet，fur，and behavior this study aims to delve into the unique physiology and habits of its kind.By doing so，we seek to refine fundamental methodologies in cryptozoological research and lay a practical and theoretical foundation for further studieson Aquila's creations.
Diet
Herbivorous.Primarily feeds on grass，alfalfa，and grains.Shows a strong preference for brightly colored fruits such as wild apples，olives，and branch berries.
Possibly due to its highly domesticated nature，the winged beast's eating habits closely resemble those of humans-three meals a day.
During a single midday feeding session，Little Ica consumed ten wild apples.An additional ten were offered-immediately consumed.Another twenty also consumed without hesitation.A single burp was observed.Five more apples were given-once again，immediately consumed.Observation suspended due to budget constraints.
Intelligence
With a beat of its wings，Little Ica can part clouds，summoning a radiant barrier that heals the wounded and seals away foes.
Cross-referencing ancient tablets and texts reveals striking similarities between Ica and the winged beast Lunabis，once companion to the Day thunder Knight.This suggests they belong to the same lineage perhaps even share a deeper connection.
Though somewhat clumsy，it comprehends simple verbal communication.Vocabulary is slightly more limited than a chimera's，roughly on par with a five-year-old child.
Perhaps due to being one of Aquila's creations，it appears responsive toother Titan Miracles.Occasionally，it even engages in conversations with the White Dryad.
Sleep Patterns
After prolonged conversation or use of rainbows，Little Ica requires extended rest.Even upon waking，it takes a long time before it can communicate clearly again.
Its divine blessing seems unstable and is gradually fading.Could it be that Aquila no longer watches over the Skyfolk？

Pantone'ade of 2025 has been announced and it's Mocha Mousse（摩卡慕斯色）is a calm，lightly pigmented（天然色的） color.It's''a mellow brown combined with a sensorial and comforting warmth"，Pantone Color Institute vice president Laurie Pressman says.
Meant to engage the multiple senses，color should spark a desire to dip your spoon into it，Pressman says.Inspired in part by"little treat culture"-a growing trend in which people punctuate their day with small pleasures like a store-bought coffee-Pressman encourages fans to'' find your mocha moment".
"Little treat culture really goes back to boosting our sense of personal comfort and wellness ， "she says .That the color reflects a cup of coffee with too much cream or a piece of smooth milk chocolate is intentional.The name too is meant to satisfy your taste buds.
Aside from the more obvious chocolate connection，Pressman and Leatrice Eiseman，the Pantone Color Institute's executive director，state that the shade creates a sense of harmony and warmth，"The overriding theme as we went into looking for this year's color was this whole idea of harmony， "Pressman says.As the world becomes more complex，consumers are searching for inner peace and balance，she says.
"We have enough going on outside of us we' re looking for things that are softer and things that are lighter， "Pressman says.As for those"dopamine（多巴胺） brights"，there's a place for those as well，but mocha mousse reflects a mood much larger than any brief contemporary trend，she says.
Part of the joy of the annual reveal，Eiseman says is that it unleashes（释放）a"necessity to talk about color".In sparking that conversation another more subtle one emerges alongside it-a dialog about how we feel our years went and what mood we want to represent this chapter at both a communal and individual level.
Whether the whole world nods its head，or cock sit to the side in confusion instead，over this reveal.It will have sparked a debate with cultural implications that stretches beyond"mocha mousse"

Are you a short video app user？If you are ，you will probably find yourself more familiar with 15-second sped-up snippets（加速的片段） of songs than with the original tracks themselves.This trend has been evident on social media platforms particularly Douyin and--TikTok， "Sped-up versions of tracks can help artists break through or go viral，although that initial success may not last， "a radio host said.This sped-up mode offers a faster route to the dopamine rush that social media aims to arouse，leading to addiction and influencing our actions.
Watching everything at a sped-up pace seems like a good way to take in more content in a shorter time.However，what are the consequences？"So many people worked hard making specific decisions about pacing，fighting，timing and music，and speeding that all up just ruins it ， "a Reddit user commented.
It seems that people speed up content because they want to complete the action of watching movies and"listening"to songs，not because they enjoy the movies and songs.It's almost as if they' re telling the creators ：'I don't have the patience to care about all the detailed design and subtle（微妙的） emotions you put into the work， "All they want is a quick idea of"what's going on"and a feeling of"wow，I just consumed another place of information".
It's obvious that people don't realize that this is destroying their patience with life.First，it's sped-up songs and movies；then gradually，it becomes a speed up life."I found myself becoming impatient with doing research for my work or preparing for a test ， "a Chinese netizen said，Since these tasks usually take hours or even days and weeks，I would think to myself， "How can I speed this up？"We already live in a fast-paced society，yet we still try to speed it up in every aspect.
What's the rush？Some thingould not be sped up，like our patience for beauty and hard work.It's time to slow down，control the usage of screens，and regain our patience.
（1）How does the Reddit user mentioned in the text comment on accelerating content？
A.It leads to people's addiction to social media.
B.It destroys the particular decisions of the creators.
C.It allows people to obtain more content in a shorter time.
D.It gives artists chances to break through or become popular.
（2）What is one of the results of the sped-up content？

B.Helping artists to achieve success.
C.Increasing the attractiveness of social media.
D.Allowing people to better enjoy movies and songs.
（3）What is the author's attitude towards sped-up content？
A.Critical
B.Neutral

A Study of the Citizens' Assembly （公民大会） Democratic politics has always fascinated citizens of different city-states in Amphoreus.When Okhema was first established，its democracy was limited to a privileged minority.However，through ongoing reforms，the Okheman citizens' assembly took to the stage，transforming Okhema's governance into a"democracy for all"-where the citizens' assembly made every major decision.
Democracy is only one of the consequences of civilization's development rather than the cause of development.For democracy to be productive，it must enact different rules for different societies，situations，and issues.No single rule can be optimal for all scenarios.
Citizens，Citizenship，and Citizenship Policies
Before examining the Okheman citizens' assembly's operational mechanisms and core functions in-depth，we must first address the matter of citizens，citizenship rights，and citizenship policies of Okhema.The elders have once noted that Okhema is a collective of free citizens.Due to the substantial power citizens possess，citizenship qualifications must be strictly regulated to ensure citizens' rights.
Discussions on the recognition of naturalized citizens' rights were once the foci of disputations between the leader of the Chrysos Heirs and the Councilof Elders.Judging from the final outcome，citizens from all city-states have equal citizenship rights in the holy city and can have equal participation in public matters.
While social differences naturally exist-between rich and poor，locals and travelers-the holy city of Okhema would not allow these social distinctions to become political divisions and will ensure complete political equality among all citizens.
Operational Mechanisms of the Citizens' Assembly
Usually，topics are proposed by Council of Elders members before the assembly and become official assembly items after receiving majority council approval.The Council pre-determines which matters to address and when.Once confirmed，the council chairman hands over the agenda to the Council of Elders's"Assembly Chair， "who presides over the meeting.
Normally，matters cannot be discussed at the citizens' assembly without prior council review.Council-reviewed matters yield only two out comes Either they' re already thoroughly discussed and only need citizen votes，or they require citizens to hold debates to reach final resolutions during the assembly.
Results are tallied using pottery shards ，with voting dolia placed throughout Okhema during assemblies.After thorough discussion and voting of all proposals，the Council of Elders posts approved decrees at the Wall of Heroes.
Core Functions of the Citizens' Assembly
The assembly wields the important capacities of legislative power（立法权），the appointment of government officials （人事任免权） ，declaring war，conceding peace，and the actual control of armies during wartime.
Yet，historically and practically，Okhema's citizens' assembly isn't fully controlled and directed by"citizens， "but rather a means to ensure that"elites"who represent the majority social interests can effectively manage social matters.
In other words，the current system where the leader of the Chrysos Heirsand and the Council ofElders jointly manage Okhema was decided by the Okheman citizens' assembly system.Citizens influence policymakers through voting and other means of political participation rather than directly managing social affairs or making political decisions.

B.Democracy is only one of the consequences of civilization's development.
C.Citizens from all city-states have equal citizenship rights in the holy city.
D.Citizenship qualifications must be strictly regulated to ensure citizens' rights.
（2）If Zhao Jinghao wants to put forward a topic on Citizens' Assembly，what should he do ？
A.Straight into the convention to ask to discuss their own issues.
B.Tell Councilof Elders his opinion in advance and ask for a discussion.
C.Participate in final resolutions during the assembly.
D.Discuss with the proposer of the opposite view on Citizens' Assembly.
（3）How the Citizens' Aassembly exercises its functions and make the decision？
A.Vote by every people，hear everyone's voices.
B.Design by the leaders Chrysos and Councilof Elders.
C.Activate the policies by"elites"who represent the majority social interests.
