The best-sellers of Amazon’s self-help list

With Mental Health Awareness Week in full swing, we’ve turned to the best-sellers of Amazon’s self-help list. Here are the most popular books over the past year.

Quiet

Fearne Cotton

Can’t Hurt me

David Goggins

Sharing his astonishing life story—from poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse to a U.S. Armed Forces icon and one of the world’s top endurance athletes.

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck

The Nobel Prize in Literature, which has been awarded annually almost every year since 1901, netted(净赚)the winning author 747,000 pounds, a medal and a certificate (证书), and the legal duty to deliver a lecture in Sweden at some future dates. The winner was selected, as usual, by the Swedish Academy, which also picked a second laureate (获奖者)this year to make up for the fact that no prize was presented in 2018 because of a scandal(丑闻).

The Nobel Prize in Literature for 2018 was awarded to the Polish author Olga Tokarczuk (奥尔加·托卡尔丘克) for “a narrative imagination that with encyclopedic (百科全书式的)passion represents the crossing of boundaries as a form of life”. She won last year’s Man Booker International Prize for her novel Flights. Her representative works (代表作) include Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead and Primeval and Other Times.

The Nobel Prize in Literature for 2019 was awarded to the Austrian author Peter Handke (彼得·汉德克) for “an influential work that with linguistic ingenuity(语言的独创性)has explored the periphery and the specificity of human experience”. His representative works include A Sorrow Beyond Dreams and Slow Homecoming.

Before the announcement of the Nobel Prize in Literature winners, there were also two nominees(被提名者)who have attracted much attention. Chinese people were keeping an eye on the nominee Can Xue. Can Xue, whose real name is Deng Xiaohua, was born in central China’s Hunan Province in 1953. She had a tough childhood, working as a worker in a street factory for eight years. Her life experience has formed her own unique literary path. Can’s books have been translated and published outside China. Frontier, published in the US in 2017, won attention and applause of the West.

The other hot guess was the Japanese writer Haruki Murakami (村上春树) whose books and stories had been bestsellers in Japan as well as internationally, with his work being translated into 50 languages and selling millions of copies outside his native country. His work has received numerous awards. Internet users kept an eye on him in the Nobel Prize in Literature because he had become a hot guess for years. His representative works include Norwegian Wood, Kafka on the Shore and 1Q84.

24．Why are two writers awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature this year?

A．To fill the prize gap of 2018. B．To attract more people’s attention.

C．To inspire more outstanding writers. D．To satisfy the development of literature.

25．What made Olga Tokarczuk win the Nobel Prize in Literature?

A．Her high popularity. B．Her language skills.

C．Her numerous works. D．Her writing style.

26．Which book can you choose if you are interested in Peter’s style?

A．Flights. B．Slow Homecoming. C．Frontier. D．Kafka on the Shore.

27．Why did the Internet users pay close attention to Haruki Murakami?

A．Because he had created hundreds of great novels.

B．Because he had received lots of awards all the time.

C．Because he had been supposed to win the prize for years.

D．Because he had been recognized as the most popular

                                    C

The tornadoes that recently struck the U.S. are some of the most destructive and deadly in history. The death in Kentucky, the hardest hit state, reached 80 on Monday, with dozens still unaccounted for. The scale of destruction and timing of the tornadoes so late in the year — most tornadoes occur in the spring and summer — is fueling discussion about how climate change may have influenced this deadly disaster.

“In my 40 years as a meteorologist (气象学家), this was one of the most shocking weather events I’ve ever witnessed,” says Jeff Masters, at Yale Climate Connections. “Watching these storms on Friday night, my thought was, ‘Is no season safe?’ Extreme tornadoes in December. That was mind blowing to me.”

Unlike heat waves and floods, the link between a wanning world and tornadoes is complex and uncertain. Scientists have several theories about how tornado behavior may change. Tornadoes in December are possible. But it remains to be seen whether climate change will strengthen or increase the frequency of tornadoes.

According to NOAA’s data, there has been a recorded increase in the number of observed tornadoes since 1950, which experts believe is largely due to better technology such as Doppler radar. There’s been no observed increase in the frequency of major tornadoes over time. For example, 59 of the most severe F5 tornadoes in the U.S. have occurred since 1950. But if the storm that destroyed Kentucky turns out to have been an F5, it will have been the first since 2013 — bringing to an end the longest recorded period so far.

Nevertheless, “given the general influence of global warming on the atmosphere, it makes sense that it should be having an impact on tornadoes too,” says Victor Gensini, an extreme weather expert at Northern Illinois University. “Instead of asking: ‘Did climate change cause this tornado?’ It’s better to operate under the assumption that climate change did play a role,” he says.

While the science on climate change and tornadoes isn’t clear, meteorologists are predicting that conditions benefiting tornadoes will continue this month. “I’m worried about the rest of the year to be honest. I don’t think we’re out of the woods yet.” Gensini says.

28．What is one difference between the recent tornadoes and the ones in the past?

A．They hit only Kentucky. B．They happened in December.

C．They caused no deaths. D．They caught people unprepared.

29．What can be inferred in paragraph 3?

A．Waves and floods often follow tornadoes.

B．There is an agreement on how tornadoes may change.

C．Climate change will make tornadoes the most deadly disaster.

D．Scientists are unsure about how climate change influences tornadoes.

30．Which statement may Victor Gensini agree with?

A．The climate change most likely has an effect on tornadoes.

B．The tornadoes have nothing to do with climate warming.

C．The science on climate change is advancing very quickly.

D．The climate change will make tornadoes much less frequent.

31．What does the underlined phrase “out of the woods” mean in the last paragraph?

A．Out of forest. B．Out of difficulty.

C．Out of danger. D．Out of question.

                                 D

The Omicron Covid variant has been found to multiply about 70 times quicker than the original and Delta versions of coronavirus in tissue samples taken from the bronchus(支气管), the main tubes from the windpipe to the lungs, in laboratory experiments that could help explain its rapid transmission.

The study, by a team from the University of Hong Kong, also found that the new variant grew 10 times slower in lung tissue, which the authors said could be an indicator of lower disease severity.

Michael Chan, who led the work, said the result needed to be interpreted with caution because severe disease is determined not only by how quickly the virus replicates(复制) but also by a person’s immune response. “It is also noted that by infecting many more people, a very infectious virus may cause more severe disease and death even though the virus itself may be less pathogenic(致病的),” he said. “Therefore, taken together with our recent studies showing that the Omicron variant can partially escape immunity from vaccines and past infection, the overall threat from the Omicron variant is likely to be very significant.”

Jeremy Kamil, an associate professor of microbiology and immunology at Louisiana State University Health Shreveport, pointed out that Delta, which turned out to be more pathogenic, showed a similar pattern of replicating more slowly in the lungs. “These authors found Omicron replicates fantastically well--even far better than either Delta or the original virus--in bronchial tissue,” Kamil said. “This could in some ways contribute to an advantage in transmission between people.”

Kamil added, “Of course, a huge component of Omicron’s transmissibility in real life is going to be its potential to escape neutralising antibodies that protect against infection in the first place. It’s very likely spreading well even between vaccinated people, especially those who haven’t recently gotten a booster shot.”

The findings, together with other recent work showing Omicron infects cells more readily, add to an emerging picture that the variant may be intrinsically more transmissible in addition to escaping existing immunity.

32．What is the kind of the passage?

A．A news report. B．A science fiction.

C．A health guide. D．A medicine advertisement.

33．What could Jeremy Kamil agree with?

A．We should take the result seriously.

B．Omicron may cause more severe disease and death.

C．Both Omicron and Delta grew slowly in the lungs.

D．Those who have gotten a booster shot won’t be infected.

34．What can we learn about Omicron?

A．It is a new variant of Delta.

B．Delta is less pathogenic than it.

C．Vaccinated people needn’t worry about it.

D．It may pose a great threat to people’s health.

35．According to the passage, which of the following may cause Omicron’s transmissibility?

A．That many people haven’t been vaccinated.

B．That many people refused to wears masks in public.

C．That Omicron infects lung cells much more quickly.

D．That existing immunity plays a poor part in fighting Omicron.

Dear Leo,

I’m sorry to hear that you haven’t been feeling well recently. But the doctor is right—you do need to exercise more. I have some suggestions that you might find helpful.

Try to do small amounts of exercise whenever you can. For example, try taking the stairs up to your flat instead of taking the lift. When you study for a long time, remember to take regular breaks. Get out of your chair and move around a bit. You can take a walk or practice some dance movements.

I’m sure you’ll soon be feeling happier and healthier.

Yours,

Li Hua
