The National Geographic Traveller (UK) Photography Competition is open for entries — and we're after your most spectacular shots from the past year. To be in with a chance of having your work published in the magazine, submit your images in up to four categories. Judged by industry-leading photographers and editors, the competition is your opportunity to be noticed and win a luxury three-night break.

THE CATEGORIES

- People

More often than not, it's the people you encounter that make a trip — but it can be difficult capturing the character of someone you've only just met. Have you managed it?

- Landscape

Shooting a landscape might seem easy, but few can really draw out the defining features. Can you identify fascinating contrasts, or show a level of detail that others can't see?

- Wildlife

Wildlife is one of the great wonders of travel. Spotting creatures in their natural habitat can be about luck — capturing them with your camera is not.

- Food

Whether it's a local farmer bringing in the harvest or chefs hard at work in a street kitchen, this category celebrates every stage of the cooking journey from field to fork.

THE PRIZE

The Grand Prize winner, from the four categories, will receive a luxury three-night escape to a UK hotel of their choice, courtesy of Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH). With over 600 hotels in 90 destinations, including 36 in the UK, SLH offers unique and charming stays with a strong sense of place, from stylish city-center hotels to countrified fishermen's huts. The prize includes the SLH Book, a limited-edition coffee-table book featuring the brand's beautifully organized collections of products.

ENTER NOW

The competition closes on 14 January 2026 at 11:59 pm. The winner must be a resident of the UK or Ireland and aged 18 or over. Judges to be announced. If you need to see full T&Cs (terms and conditions), visit the magazine's website.

21. Which of the following photos can be an entry?

A. A picture of downtown skyscrapers.

B. A portrait of a worker making forks.

B

A few years ago, we bought a Lego Taj Mahal (泰姬陵) for my dad's birthday, hoping to combine his love for architecture with family time.

Each evening, my dad and I gathered around the large dining table to build the model. We faced thousands of tiny white pieces, each packaged with precision in numbered plastic bags, accompanied by a thick instruction book. The evenings passed quickly, and the building rose before our eyes. We could see our efforts producing good results, and as we turned to the boring task of ordering the colored bricks on the building's floor, our conversation too took a turn.

We were amazed by how complex the model was and its instruction book. We realized the book itself was a work of art, beautiful, but also surprisingly detailed and clear. It provided us with the comfort of certainty. We knew if we followed all the instructions, we would end up with a model that looked exactly like the picture on the box. If we made a mistake, all we had to do was to repeat our steps and start again.

Life, however, does not fit together so neatly and rarely provides us with such clear instructions. We talked over our respective lives, decisions made, and actions and choices never taken. Dad reflected on a life well lived, and I, in my mid-thirties, on the uncertain path that lay ahead

Here, we were the expert architects doing the assembling, but out in the world, we were the ones being assembled. We think we're in control, but our choices are shaped by forces beyond our control. In the face of uncertainty, we have to proceed, trusting both in the process and the end result.

Sometimes, on the days I return home, I go to the spare room to look at the completed Lego model, which brings forth a sense of happiness and comfort. It reminds me that life is built slowly, with mistakes, an element of uncertainty and no instruction book. It shows that consideration, warmth and faith will result in a life well lived. Life itself is not about what we materially create or leave behind, but rather how we lived it.

24. Which can best describe the author's experience of building the Lego model?

A. Simple and uninteresting.

B. Imaginative and enjoyable.

C. Complicated and rewarding.

D. Challenging and discouraging.

25. What does the author learn from assembling the Lego model?

A. Life requires to be planned carefully.

B. Life doesn't come with clear guidance.

C. Mistakes in life can always be corrected.

D. Life's uncertainty makes it more exciting.

26. How does the author suggest we deal with uncertainty in life?

A. By avoiding making any choice.

B. By focusing on instant end results.

C. By seeking instructions from others.

D. By moving forward with confidence.

27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. Lego: A Symbol of Family Bond

B. Building with Lego: Lessons for Life

C. The Complexity of Architectural Models

D. Life: A Journey Without Instructions

C

Early in my academic career, I noticed that one of the most popular classes on campus was Introduction to Astronomy, a general-science course. The students all loved it — especially the non-science majors. I asked an economics student why she enjoyed it so much. She didn't say anything about stars, but she said something about earthly existence. "When I go into class on Thursday mornings, I am stressed out about my life," she told me. "But 90 minutes later, I feel relief because I am just a speck (尘埃) on a speck."

She was expressing a profound truth. We tend to believe that to be happier, we need to become bigger in our own mind and in the minds of others. But that's wrong. What we really need to achieve both the perspective on life and the peace is to get smaller in relation to everything and everyone else. When we experience our own littleness, we can relax into a humble reality of not being the object of attention and criticism, and we can appreciate a magnificent universe without spoiling it with our self-absorption.

You know that you are not the center of most things in life. It is very possible that your own great-grandchildren will not know your name. And yet, when you don't recognize these truths, you will have the illusion that you are the focus of intense outside interest. But this comes at a cost. Thinking about yourself all the time makes you miserable over the long term. Researchers have shown that such self-focus can provoke emotional problems, making social situations or task performance feel frightening and unpleasant. Self-focus is especially deleterious (有害的) for people who by nature have high social anxiety.

An additional downside is that self-focus makes performing skilled tasks less enjoyable. In a study of basketball players published in 2002, sports psychologists instructed one group of players to focus on their own performance during warm-up. These players experienced higher anxiety than others who were not given this instruction.

All of this might strike you as strange. Getting happier often requires you to resist your natural tendencies. The world is constantly inviting you to try to make yourself appear bigger in others' eyes and in your own; this fact underpins (构成) the entire social-media business model. However, the trick to finding happiness is to get smaller.

28. What is the author's main purpose in quoting the economics student in Paragraph 1?

A. To introduce the viewpoint.

B. To show the effects of astronomy knowledge.

C. To demonstrate the common anxiety problems.

D. To stress the courses' popularity among non-majors.

29. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A. People know they are not the world's center.

B. Ignoring external evaluation can bring happiness.

C. Excessive self-focus cause distress and discomfort.

D. Self-importance determines one's life value.

30. What is the possible outcome if a musician is instructed to focus on their techniques?

A. They would stay in full control of their performance.

B. They would feel more anxious and reduced enjoyment.

C. Their technique would receive praise from the audience.

D. They would enjoy the glory fueled by self-focus

31. Which of the following sayings can best illustrate the author's opinion?

A. Still waters run deep.

B. The bigger the head, the smaller the world.

C. A small leak will sink a great ship.

D. To know oneself is the beginning of wisdom.

D

More than 1,000 metres below the surface of the oceans, darkness dominates. Marine creatures rely on sound for navigation, communication, and searching for food. However, this way of life has come under threat from shipping, contributing to a rise in underwater volume of approximately 3.3 decibels (分贝) per decade. The trend shows little sign of levelling off.

With roughly 90% of trade relying on shipping, quieting the ocean through reductions in shipping itself is untenable. While efficiency improvements of shipping may cut noise, experts say more is needed. That is why technologies like modified propellers (螺旋桨) and noise-reducing materials are being developed to help humans and marine life coexist.

Much of the underwater noise a ship produces comes from its propeller. Spinning blades create low pressure, causing the water to boil and produce bubbles, a process known as cavitation (空化现象). When these bubbles collapse, a low-frequency noise is produced, disrupting the movements of marine lives.

One solution, being developed by researchers at the University of British Columbia, integrates flexible polymers (聚合物) into the metal propeller blades, allowing their tips to bend and twist. This movement prevents bubbles from forming and thereby reduces the noise the blades produce. Based on simulations, the design could reduce cavitation noise by 20 decibels. Dr. Jaiman says researchers intend to start testing a model next year.

Cavitation can also be reduced by increasing the number of bubbles, rather than reducing them. Researchers at MARIN, a Dutch research institute, have blown bubbles onto a propeller's blades which can dampen the resulting noise. Model-scale tests of this system showed a 12-decibel decrease in low-frequency noise. But shipping noise does not come only from the propeller, with roughly 20% coming from engines and generators. To reduce this, MARIN researchers have experimented with a bubble screen generated from tubes positioned in belts around the outside of the ship. These bubbles prevent noise from spreading.

32. Which best explains the underlined word “untenable” in paragraph 2?

A. Impractical.

B. Unavailable.

C. Unstable.

D. Immeasurable.

33. What is the main source of underwater noise from ships?

A. The spinning blades.

B. The process of cavitation.

C. The engines and generators.

D. The bubbles generated by ships.

34. What solution is being developed at MARIN?

A. Boosting ship efficiency.

B. Creating flexible blade tips.

C. Generating more bubbles on blades.

D. Using quieter engines and generators.

35. What's the passage mainly about?

A. Strategies to prevent ships from making noise.

B. Innovations to minimize underwater ship noise.

C. Adapted propeller designs to restore undersea quiet.

D. Negative impacts of underwater noise on marine life.

Cybercrime: The Dark Side of the Internet

It was estimated that as of November 2025, there were 4.6 billion Internet users globally, representing almost 3/4 of the world's population. The Internet has, in a relatively short span of time, completely revolutionized how we communicate with each other, exchange information and conduct business. Unfortunately, due to its wide reach and relative privacy, the Internet has become very attractive to criminals.

36. ___ In order to address this issue and avoid becoming a victim, we need to develop an awareness of cybercrime.

37. ___ Phishing (网络钓鱼) is one of the most common types of cybercrime. When clicking on links to dangerous websites or software, you may be fooled into providing personal information such as passwords, usernames or financial details. Malware (恶意软件), another form of cybercrime, can cause damage or gain illegal access to a computer or network. Cybercriminals trick you into parting with your money, infecting your computer with a virus to steal your personal data, or blocking you from accessing your own data until a ransom (赎金) is paid. For example, in 2021, a computer manufacturer suffered a ransomware attack. Cybercriminals took advantage of a weakness in a server, accessed the company's files and demanded a large sum of money.

Fortunately, you can take preventive measures to reduce your chances of falling victim to such cybercrimes. 38. ___ Do not provide personal information on a website you know nothing about, especially those that ask for your name, mailing address and bank account number. To avoid getting taken in, be cautious about advertisements offering bargains and rewards that seem too good to be true. And, of course, do not open email attachments or click on links from unknown sources, no matter how curious you might be. Secondly, you can turn to technical defenses to protect yourself from cybercrime. Turn on your spam (垃圾邮件) blocker to prevent unwanted messages from getting to your inbox. 39. ___ It is also a good idea to keep your software and operating system up to date by downloading and installing the latest security patches.

So, next time you go online, never drop your guard. 40. ___

A. Stay alert, smart and safe!

B. Cybercrime can come in many different forms.

C. Firstly, you need to stay alert when using the Internet.

D. Keeping a close eye on your personal information is a must.

E. There are cases where people suffered both financially and mentally.

F. Consequently, cybercrime has become a huge problem in recent years.

G. Make sure you have reliable antivirus software and always keep it turned on.

Once upon a time, much of the world was populated by wolves. They   41   all over the United States and Canada, Siberia and much of mainland Europe, as well as Great Britain, and if humans hadn't come along, they would still be there in great numbers. But man did come along, farmed the land,   42   the wolves killing their livestock (家畜) and so gradually drove them out of the homes that had once been theirs.

Wolves are not   43   in our language and literature, however. In fairy stories, they are seen as evil and dangerous, always   44   to eat people. Remember the time when Little Red Riding Hood thinks that a wolf is her grandmother? If you really want to see how English-speaking humans think of the wolf, just look at the   45  ! "A wolf in sheep's clothing" is not a pleasant person and a "wolf-whistle" is not a pleasant sound!

Yet wolves are totally unlike the image we have of them from legend and language. For a start, they don't   46   humans; indeed, they do their best to keep out of our way. They are very sociable animals, living in packs and looking after their young, which should make some humans   47   themselves. Instead of being 48  , the howl of the wolf — the cry of the whole pack — as the full moon rises in a star-bright sky, is one of the most beautiful sounds in nature. They are beautiful creatures which can run at speeds of up to 65 kph if they have to. And when they do   49  , their 42 large teeth are fearlessly effective.

But the   50   remains that we love the lion, the king of the jungle, while we demonize (妖魔化) the wolf, one of the most beautiful animals in the world. Only   51   do writers treat them nicely; for example, a she-wolf is supposed to have fed the twins Remus and Romulus, who went on to   52   the city of Rome.

And so, while man kills animals in their millions, often just for the fun of it, the wolf represents a state of natural   53   that we do not know and can never obtain, even though we   54   it in our hearts. Perhaps that's why, in the end, we   55   the wolf so much — for having something we can never get our hands on.

阅读下列文章，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Last summer, my family and I went on camping by a small lake nestled in the rural countryside. The lake was a local treasure, renowned for its crystal-clear water that shone like shattered glass under the sun, reflecting the greenery of the surrounding hills and the fluffy clouds drifting above. It was also home to flocks of wild ducks—plump creatures with chestnut-brown feathers, bright orange bills, and webbed feet that glided smoothly across the water's surface.

On the second morning, I arose at dawn, eager to appreciate the quiet beauty of the lake before the rest of the family woke. As I wandered leisurely along the winding lake bank, a faint, trembling sound suddenly pierced (刺破) the silence. Curious, I followed the sound and soon spotted a baby duck huddled(蜷缩) pitifully on the grass. Its left wing was twisted at an unnatural angle and it let out soft cries that tugged(用力拉) at my heartstrings.

Not far away, in the shallow water near the shore, its mother swam anxiously in circles, her neck stretched to full length as she quacked — her voice filled with desperation, yet she dared not step onto the grass. Glancing around, I noticed a deep, dark hole partially concealed by overgrown ferns(蕨) just a few meters away. It was evident that the curious little duck had strayed too far from its mother, fell into the hole, and twisted its wing while struggling out. I knew instinctively that I had to save this helpless little life.

I gently picked up the baby duck and carried it back to our camping tent.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

When the baby duck could stand and walk again, I decided to take it back to the lake bank.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
