I remember the night I fell in lve. When I was 12 years ld, a neighbr bught a cffee machine. The neighbr kid and I had eight cups each. Feeling fully alive, we even climbed nt the rf, awed by the shining stars. Frty-five years later, nt a day has gne by that I haven't renewed my lve fr the Bean. I've als cme t understand hw and why cffee fascinates me.
Caffeine(咖啡因) evlved in certain plants t discurage insects frm eating them, but the reasn why many peple cnsume it each day is this: When caffeine enters the brain, it cmpetes with a chemical called adensine(腺苷), whse jb is t make yu feel tired. When it is sht ut, a receptr cnnects t it, signaling yur brain that it's time t sleep.
That's where caffeine cmes in. With a similar shape, it fit s int the receptrs, leaving adensine nwhere t park, because caffeine is already ccupying its spts. In truth, caffeine desn't bst yur energy——it simply prevents yu frm feeling wrn ut.
T get t what really matters, thugh: Caffeine makes yu happy and imprves cgnitive perfrmance (that means it makes yu smarter), as prven by research. Yet, caffeine is als a blessing t humanity. As Michael Pllan argues in his audibk Caffeine: Hw Cffee and Tea Created the Mdern Wrld, caffeine's arrival in the 17th century transfrmed the ecnmy thrugh enhanced prductivity, innvatin, and safety. S if yu like electricity, running water, and lifesaving medicines, give credit fr caffeine.
Nthing in life is free, hwever. As yu cnsume mre caffeine ver time, yu will be reduced t a state f tlerance, where caffeine has a smaller effect after lng-term use. Hwever, this “prblem” seems just an pprtunity t enjy mre cffee. Recently, nticing the increase in my cnsumptin, my wife prpsed that I “take a little break” frm cffee. The very suggestin made me angry. “Here's an idea,” I replied. “Why dn't we just live apart fr a year s it feels mre like it did when we were first married?” An verreactin? I think nt.
28. What is the authr's purpse f mentining his childhd experience?
A. T stress the danger f drinking t much cffee.
B. T recall the friendship with the neighbr kid.
C. T tell the preciusness f a cffee machine.
D. T shw the start f his passin fr cffee.
29. Why d many peple cnsume caffeine daily?
A. It can increase peple's energy. B. It can help peple sleep better.
C. It can blck adensine's actin. D. It can wrk better with receptrs.
30. What des Michael Pllan's audibk mainly fcus n?
A. Hw cffee affects ne's cgnitin. B. Hw cffee drve scial develpment.
C. Why cffee lifts peple's spirits. D. When cffee came int daily diet.
31. Hw did the authr react t his wife's advice?---------
A. He preferred keeping his cffee habit. B. He cnsidered taking a gd rest.
C. He agreed t cnsume less cffee. D. He decided t separate frm his wife.
D
Hw culd anyne dislike giving and receiving gifts? A gd gift can be ttally life changing. Gifts are s meaningful that sme peple identify “receiving gifts” as their primary “lve language”. Indeed, n the surface, gift-giving ccasins seem like wnderful pprtunities t experience and create delight. But accrding t a 2023 survey, gift-giving and receiving is actually the least ppular lve language verall.
The prblem is that ccasins that invlve gift giving are full f uncertainty. If it's an ccasin like Christmas, where peple are shpping fr each ther at the same time, peple might still be nervus abut whether the gift they give will be in the same categry as the gift they will als receive. Fr instance, yu dn't want t give smene a gag(恶作剧) gift when they're giving yu a sincere, heartfelt gift. Mismatched appraches t gift-giving are a cmmn recipe fr awkwardness.
There can als be enrmus uncertainty arund hw yur gift will be experienced by the receiver. Imagine that a clse friend is shwing sme signs f seasnal affective disrder, and yu're giving him a therapy (疗法) I amp as a gift. True, he may very well be appreciative, indicating that this is “just what he needed.” But what if he interprets the gift as an unwelcme piece f cmmentary n his affective state? One culd imagine a reactin alng the lines f “ Gsh, I'm srry I've been s unpleasant t be arund,” The message we send is nt necessarily the same as the message received.
Wrst f all, there's the anxiety that cmes with receiving gifts. If yu are like me, yu may have fund yurself in a setting where yu expect a lt f well-meaning but disappinting gifts are headed yur way. There can be sme fear that cmes with knwing that yu'll sn need t perfrm jy and appreciatin. Even wrse, yu might wrry that the gift-giver will detect yur insincerity, wunding them in the prcess.
It's nt all bad, f curse. When dne carefully, gift-giving can be a wnderful way t draw peple clser tgether, in a lasting way.
32. Gift giving is full f uncertainty because .
A. peple prepare insincere gifts fr thers
B. the gifts they give are f the same categry
C. mismatched gift- giving frequently happens
D. peple shp fr gifts fr different ccasins
33. An example f the therapy lamp is used t illustrate .
A. trust can be earned thrugh gift-giving
B. misunderstanding can arise frm gift-giving
C. harmny can be achieved thrugh gift-giving
D. depressin can be a byprduct f gift-giving
34. What makes a gift-receiver mst anxius?
A. Expressing disappintment ver the gifts.
B. Having pretended delight at the gifts uncvered.
C. Expecting well-intentined gifts frm friends.
D. Fearing t extend appreciatin fr the gifts.
35. What is the authr's attitude twards gift giving?

Autnmy-supprtive parenting is an apprach that fcuses n building a child's sense f agency in the wrld as well as a strng sense f self. 36 Ve shuld recgnize that children have a different perspective r experience than adults. Therefre, instead f pushing adults' way f thinking n children, adults shuld let kids d their wn critical thinking and slve prblems themselves, which will help them trust their abilities.
Guide kids t find their wn slutin
As any parent with mre than ne child can tell yu, kids develp differently. 37 While ne child may find it easy t start their hmewrk independently, the ther might nt be a self-starter. S we push ur kids t the next level by knwing their skill level and meeting them there.
Let kids find their wn fun
26 It really is harm t them. It als sets us up t be their cruise(航行) directrs at all times. That's a huge burden n us! Letting children find their wn thing t d when bredm strikes allws them t becme self-sufficient and use their imaginatin t find fun n their wn.
Being sympathetic desn't mean giving in
Anther characteristic f autnmy-supprtive parenting is being pen, curius, and flexible. Trusting children t be accuntable t themselves (r acting like it) is the nly way yu will knw if yur child will be a respnsible, independent adult. Fr example, if yu ask yur child when they think is the best time t d their hmewrk, and they tell yu it's in the mrning befre schl begins, supprt them and let them try it, n matter hw strange it sunds. 39 7°
Dn't frget t supprt yurself
Once yu grasp autnmy-supprtive parenting, yu'll see pprtunities t put it int practice. N matter hw ld yur kid is, adpting this style will nt be easy. 40 If yu get hard n yurself because yu're nt measuring up, yu're mre likely t return t the cntrlling practices.
第 8 页 共 12A. It may wrk.
B. Our kids dn't knw hw t manage bredm.
C. That can mean we have t supprt them in different ways.
D. S frgive yurself if things dn't g right n a particular day.
E. And they may nt knw yet, but it's gd fr them t think abut it.
F. Sme days are just ging t be mre autnmy-supprtive than thers.
