The Prs and Cns f Napping
◆ Daytime resting: helpful r harmful?
Getting sme sleep, even a shrt afternn nap, may seem like a gdthing fr peple with sleep disrders. But fr thse with insmnia and an already decreased desire t sleep at night, midday shut-eye can actually be cunterprductive. S befre yu curl up n the cuch this afternn, cnsider whether yur quick fix might backfire when yu lie dwn in bed tnight.
◆ Truble sleeping at night
If yu have insmnia, naps present a prblem, even if yu feel tiredduring the day. Napping during the day can perpetuate bad sleep habits fr peple with temprary sleep issues caused by stress, illness, r jet lag t.
“Even just a little bit f a pwer nap reduces yur nighttime sleep drive,” says Ralph Dwney III, PhD, directr f the Sleep Disrders Center at Lma Linda University Medical Center in Califrnia. “The nap becmes nthing mre than anther episde f fragmented sleep.”
◆ Getting thrugh the day
If yu dn’t have a prblem getting yur z’s at night, a quick nap canwrk wnders t pull yu thrugh a tiresme r sleep-deprived day. In fact, a 2008 study fund that a 45-minute daytime nap can imprve memry functin. And previus studies have fund that naps can lwer bld pressure.
Thse wh suffer frm narclepsy r shift-wrk syndrme may als benefit frm daytime naps, says James Wyatt, PhD, directr f the Sleep Disrders Service and Research Center at Rush University Medical Center in Chicag.
◆ Fatigue culd be a warning sign
If yu’re cnstantly fighting the urge t sleep during the day and fallingasleep instantly at night, yu might have bstructive sleep apnea, a cnditin in which yu stp breathing while yu sleep.
In this case, naps wn’t help. By wearing a cntinuus psitive airway pressure (CPAP) machine that flws xygen thrugh yur nse, hwever, yu’ll likely sleep mre sundly and wake refreshed—whether frm a gd night’s rest r a quick catnap.
60. If yu suffer frm insmnia _____________.
A. midday shut-eye may be helpful
B. a shrt afternn nap is prbably a gd thing
C. napping during the day is cnsidered a gd habit
D. a little bit f a pwer nap decreases yur night time sleep desire
61. A quick nap can be beneficial fr cmmn peple except thse __________.
A. wh have a prblem falling int sleep at night
B. whse memry is nt gd enugh
C. wh suffer frm shift-wrk syndrme
D. whse bld pressure is t high

Culd yur dg be prne t a fatal disease? Is yur new shelter pup part beagle r bxer? Many pet wners seek answers t these questins, and as a result, direct-t-cnsumer dg DNA testing is bming.
Human interfering with dg DNA has lng been the driving factr behind dgs’ breed diversity—r lack theref. But a dg’s DNA can als be used t cnfirm their lineage(血统) r identify their breed, a bn fr pet wners n the lkut fr breed-specific health r behaviral challenges r thse lking t cnfirm their dg really has the heritage claimed by a breeder r seller. During DNA analysis, labs sequence the dg’s DNA and lk fr similarities with a dataset f identified dg breeds.
But breed identificatin isn’t as simple as it might seem. In a study published in the Jurnal f the American Veterinary Medical Assciatin last mnth, scientists lked int the accuracy f breed predictin in cmmercially available DNA tests that required a pht f the dg in additin t its DNA sample. The results were mixed, says Casey Greene, a prfessr wh c-authred the study.
“Mst tests culd accurately distinguish the breed f purebred dgs,” says Greene. But the analysis suggested that sme testing cmpanies might rely n the pht mre than the dg’s actual genetics—and revealed big differences between cmpanies’ business practices and the genetic datasets they use t determine dg breeds.
The researchers submitted phts and DNA f 12 purebred dgs t a ttal f six cmmercial canine(犬的) ancestry identificatin services. Since each pup was purebred and pssessed extensive American Kennel Club paperwrk, the researchers knew their breed cnclusively—but in sme cases they prvided a pht f a different dg t see if the pht influenced the DNA results. One f the cmpanies misidentified a purebred Chinese crested dg—almst entirely hairless—as a lng-haired Brittany spaniel, seemingly based n the pht alne. The ther five did identify the registered breed crrectly, but ften gave different predictins fr ther “ancestr” breeds in dgs whse DNA suggested mixed breeding in prir generatins. The researchers cncluded that veterinarians(兽医) and pet wners alike shuld “apprach direct-t-cnsumer tests with cautin” given the lack f industry standardizatin and at least ne cmpany’s reliance n phtgraphs instead f DNA analysis.
Despite these cncerns, thugh, dg DNA seems headed fr a glden age—and the insights revealed thrugh further study f Fid’s genme(基因组) have already reached far beynd the dghuse. Dmesticated dgs have emerged as surprising superstars in medical research that benefits humans. Accrding t researchers, that’s just the beginning. With implicatins ranging frm entertaining t cnsequential, there’s n telling what dg DNA will cntinue t unleash.
The underlined wrd “bn” in paragraph tw is clsest in meaning t ___________.
blessing B.substitute C. dutyD.struggle
64. Accrding t the passage, dg DNA testing can serve the fllwing purpses except that .
it assists in accurately determining the breed a dg belngs t
it helps t predict whether dgs are subject t certain diseases
it prvides pet wners with insights int dgs’ behaviral challenges
it sequences the DNA f identified dg breeds t find their similarities
65. Which f the fllwing statements can be cncluded frm the passage?
A. Phts play a mre significant rle in identifying a dg’s breed than its actual genetics.
B. It is a cmmn phenmenn that the DNA analysis f dgs may yield mixed results.
C. Cmmercial dg DNA tests still have limitatins and shuld be dealt with cautiusly.
D. Direct-t-cnsumer tests vershadw DNA analysis in identifying purebred dgs.
66. What des the passage suggest abut the future f dg DNA testing?
A. Cntrversies regarding its reliability are here t stay.
B. It is bund t make breakthrughs in the fields f medicine and entertainment.
C. It can stepint a glden age as lng as sme research limitatins are fixed.
D. It may have far-reaching significance and be applied t a wider range f areas.

A San Francisc Museum Tackles Art’s Instagram Dilemma
A wman held tightly her phne t her heart, the way a missinary mighthld a Bible. She was anxius t take a picture f a stunning buquet f flwers, but first she had t get thrugh a crwd f thers wh were ding the same.
(67)_______________ Fr the 34th year, flrists were asked t create buquets that respnd t pieces f art n display, frm ancient carvings t cntemprary sculptures. A twer f baby’s breath imitates a waterfall in a nearby painting by Gustav Grunewald. Red flaming flwers and nen blue sticks ech a surreal prtrait f a wman by Salvadr Dali.
It’s amazing and als extremely Instagrammable, t the pint that it has becme a prblem. (68)_______________ Institutins f fine art arund the wrld face similar prblems as the desire t take phtgraphs becmes a huge draw fr museums as well as smething that upsets sme f their spnsrs.
S the de Yung respnded with a kind f agreement: carving ut “pht free” hurs during the exhibitin’s six-day run.
One cmmn cmplaint in the nging debates ver the effect f scial media n museum culture is that peple seem t be missing ut n experiences because they are s busy cllecting evidence f them. A study published in the jurnal Psychlgical Science suggests there is truth t this. It fund that peple wh tk phts f an exhibit rather than simply bserving it had a harder time remembering what they saw.
(69)_______________ Linda Butler, the de Yung’s head f marketing, cmmunicatins and visitr experience, acknwledges that nt everyne wants a museum t be “a selfie playland”. Yet a lt f ther peple d, and her take is that the de Yung is in n psitin t claim that ne mtivatin fr buying a $28 ticket is mre valid than anther.
If we remved scial media and phtgraphy, she says, “we shuld risk becming irrelevant”. (70)_______________ On this visit t the museum, mst peple seemed t treat the pht craze as the new nrmal. Many plitely waited their turn and gt ut f ther peple’s shts, even as visitrs bumped int each ther in crwded galleries.
IV.Summary Writing 10%
Directins: Read the fllwing passage. Summarize the main idea and the main pint(s) f the passage in n mre than 60 wrds. Use yur wn wrds as far as pssible.
These days, it’s nt unusual t see middle-aged men cllecting Star Wars actin figures, ffice wrkers wearing Hell Kitty accessries, r celebrities like David Beckham playing with Leg bricks. It’s becming mre and mre cmmn t see adult taking an interest in tys, cmic bks and the activities that are traditinally assciated with children. This phenmenn has given rise t a new wrd: kidult.
What lies behind the phenmenn? One is abut adults’nstalgia (怀旧的) fr the carefree days f childhd, and this is especially true with tday’s fast-paced, stressful lifestyles. Anther is abut a scietal change in recent decades where peple are starting families later. As a result, they have mre time and mney t spend n themselves. Sme adults culd nly windw-shp fr their dream tys when they were kids, but nw they can affrd that radi-cntrlled car r high-priced dll they have always wanted.
Sciety traditinally disapprves f adults wh refuse t put aside childhd interests, viewing the refusal as a sign f scial immaturity (不成熟) and irrespnsibility. Thse wh agree with this view smetimes claim that kidults are suffering frm the pp-psychlgy cncept knwn as Peter Pan Syndrme, an anmaly (异常) that peple remain emtinally at the level f teenagers.
Frm the standpint f kidults, thugh, this phenmenn is seen as nthing but harmless fun. Kidults insist that having yuthful interests keeps them yung, happy and creative, and their refusal t cnfrm t sciety’s acceptable tastes shws independent thinking. Besides, they argue that being part f the scial trend f delayed adulthd is nt purely a persnal chice. The real causes include expensive husing, increased educatinal requirements fr emplyment and pr wrk pprtunities.

If yu are ging t be a straight talker, yu have t believe that it's a virtue.If yu have an pinin and yu just state it, it allws the ther persn t either try t change yur pinin, r t agree with yu. If yu are quiet, peple think yu agree. Hw can yu then further the cnversatin when yu have different pinins but dn't express them? Agreeing is easy. Disagreeing takes mre curage.
Several years back, when I was CEO at Autdesk, there was a very senir-level wman wh was very smart and well-spken, but she did nt wear apprpriate clthes. It was distracting and she was nt being taken seriusly. I said t her manager, wh was male, "Yu need t tell her."He said, "Oh, n way."
S I called her in and frankly stated what I thught was happening. I tld her, "Yu’re nt getting the respect yu deserve."I said, "G and get a persnal shpper. Just say, "I'm a senir businesspersn and need sme help dressing apprpriately". She came back, and hnest t Gd, it was a different persn. She said she felt really gd. And her prmtin went way up.
Early in my business career, if peple asked me a questin, I'd try t answer it hnestly. And
that was rewarded. I had managers wh wanted me arund because I wuld actually tell them what was happening.

Thusands f kinds f plants culd help feed a grwing wrld ppulatin. Abut fur ut f every ten medicines cme frm ingredients fund in plants. Sme animals als prvide medicines.
"It's natural fr species t becme extinct ver millins f years," says Dr. Lvejy. "What' unnatural is that humans are speeding up the prcess many times ver." Actually, humans have great impact n ther living things that share the earth. And peple are ding this in fur main ways: destrying wildlife habitats, ver hunting, intrducing new species that endanger native wildlife, and plluting the envirnment. These activities affect all species in ne way r anther, because all life is intercnnected.
