After wrking an extra shift, Dr.Jessica Gld returned hme feeling burned ut and submitted herself t the urge t watch TV and sleep mst f the day. As Generatin Z wuld say, she was "bed rtting". The phrase describes staying in bed all day, just like“rtting”( 腐 烂 )there, accrding t Gld, a prfessr at Washingtn University. It is similar t having a lazy day, but it is mre f an immbile term with less activity. She said, “It is OK as lng as yu understand why yu are ding it and turn t ther activities as well.”
"Lying in bed fr mre than a day is cncerning and culd lead t different mental health issues," Gld added, “The urge t rt in bed all day, especially if it happens mre seriusly, is likely abut smething mre than just catching up n sleep r needing a day t d nthing, but aviding the feelings, stress r pain f being awake. This srt f behavir has been linked t symptms(症状)f depressin and anxiety."
Bed rtting culd be affecting mre than just yur mental health —it culd als have a negative impact n yur sleep." Bed rtting is exactly the ppsite f what we want peple t d," said Barn, assciate prfessr f family and preventive medicine. “As a general guideline, if yu are nt asleep within 30 minutes during the night, yu shuld get ut f bed," said she.
Bed rtting after a lng day is nrmal, but if it is affecting yur wrk, scial life r ther imprtant activities, then yu shuld turn t prfessinals, Gld suggested, because they can help yu get t the rt cause and get yu t learn t d smething that yu may think f as hbbies.
Recharging activities can energize us and better prepare us fr the unavidable stress we face daily. "Sme ptins include hanging ut with a friend, seeing a film r exercising," said Reg, a psychlgist frm New Yrk, “If yu dn't want t leave the huse, try activities like reading a bk r jurnaling instead f just lying dwn."
28.What can we learn abut "bed rtting"?

B.It is an active attitude tward life. C.It is acceptable if it is cntrllable.
D.It is the same with having a lazy day.

Paul Blm, a psychlgist at Yale University, defines empathy（共情) as the act f stepping int smene’s mind t experience their feelings and it’s what he takes issue with. “Experiencing smene else’s pain will mtivate us t care abut and help that persn,” he writes, “Hwever, it leads t sme mral dilemmas.”
Blm tells the stry f a 10-year-ld girl called Sheri Summers, wh has a deadly disease. Dctrs have placed Sheri n a waiting list fr a treatment that will ptentially prlng her life. Sadly, this very bright, very brave girl learns she has weeks r mnths befre that happens. When participants in a study were presented with Sheri’s stry, arund three-quarters mved her up the list t get her treatment earlier. Yet, ding s culd mean every ther child abve her n the list wuld have t wait even lnger, many f whm might be mre deserving.
Peple are much mre likely t pen their hearts—r wallets—when there is a visible beneficiary (受益人) whse pain culd be eased. The charity that campaigns with a single stry f a named, suffering child may win mre dnatins cmpared with the charity that nly displays statistics describing 1,000 annymus(匿名的) children.
There’s nthing wrng with using persnal stries t raise awareness f a wrthy cause, but the identifiable victim effect des nevertheless take billins f dllars away frm where it culd d mre gd fr a greater number f peple.
The research suggests that we ught t start making a clearer distinctin between empathy and its apparent synnym(同义词): “sympathy”. T be sympathetic, it is mre abut the idea f extending kindness twards thers.
Blm uses the example f an adult cmfrting a child wh is terrified f a small, barking dg. The adult desn’t need t feel the child’s fear t help. “There can be sympathy fr the child, a desire t make his r her fear g away, withut any shared experience r empathetic discmfrt,” he writes.
32．What des the phrase “take issue with” in Paragraph 1 prbably mean?
A．Disagree with. B．In favr f.
C．Take int accunt.D．Cmmit t.
33．Why des Blm tell the stry f Sheri?
A．T aruse the readers’ sympathy.
B．T criticize the participants’ chice.
C．T illustrate what the mral dilemma is.
D．T explain why participants shw sympathy.
34．Hw des the identifiable victim effect influence peple?
A．It makes peple mre willing t help r dnate.
B．It helps peple take much mney away frm the victims.
C．It raises peple’s awareness f requiring visible beneficiaries.
D．It strengthens peple’s willingness t help the annymus.
35．What is Paul Blm’s view n “empathy”?
A．He sees n difference between empathy and sympathy.
B．He believes empathy leads t less fair decisin-making.
C．He believes empathy benefits efficient resurce distributin.
D．He believes empathy imprves analysis f charitable needs.
