Humans have been keeping animals as pets fr tens f thusands f years, but Dr Jean-Lup. Rault, an animal scientist at the University f Melburne in Australia, believes new cmpanins are cming: rbt pets.
“Technlgy is mving very fast,” Rault tld ABC News, “The Tamagtchi in the early 1990s was really the first rbtic pet, and nw Sny and ther big cmpanies have imprved them a lt.”
This may nt sit well with pet lvers. After all, wh wuld chse a plastic ty instead f a lvely puppy? But Rault argues that many peple are ging fr it: “Yu dn’t have t feed it, yu dn’t have t walk it, it wn’t make a mess in yur huse, and yu can g n a hliday withut feeling’ guilty.” The technlgy als benefits thse wh are allergic t pets, shrt n space, r fearful f real animals.
It’s nt clear whether rbt pets can replace real nes. But studies d suggest that we can develp deep bnd with these smart machines. Peple give their cars names and kids give their ty animals life stries. It’s the same with rbts. When Sny stpped its repair service fr its rbt dg Aib in March 2014, wners in Japan held funerals.
As an animal welfare researcher, Rault is cncerned abut hw rbtic pets culd affect ur attitudes twards live animals: “If we becme used t a rbtic cmpanin that desn’t need fd, water r exercises, perhaps it will change hw humans cared abut ther living beings,” he said.
S are dgs and cats a thing f the past, as Rault predicts? Fr thse wh grew up with living and breathing pets, the mechanical kind might nt d. But fr ur next generatin wh are in cnstant tuch with smart technlgy, a future in which lvely pets needn’t have a heartbeat might nt be a far-fetched dream.

A. be refused byB. be beneficial t
C. make a difference tD. receive supprt frm
5. Which f the fllwing is NOT the advantage f rbt pets?
A. Owners dn’t have t feed r walk them.
B. They wn’t make a mess in yur huse.
C. They can help cure allergies.
D. Owners can g n a hliday withut feeling guilty.
6. Why did wners f rbt dg Aib hld funerals fr their dgs?
A. Because Sny stpped its repair service fr Aib in 2014.
B. Because they had develped deep bnd with their rbt dg.
C. Because they wuld n lnger have rbtic pets in the future.
D. Because their attitudes twards live animals were affected.

I read Newprt’s bk, Deep Wrk: Rules fr Fcused Success in a Distracted Wrld, which he published in 2016. In this bk, Newprt makes the persuasive argument that highly fcused wrk is increasingly nt cmmn in the mdern wrkplace.
Peple are easy t get distracted (分心), whether they’re surfing the Internet fr entertainment r wasting time n tasks like email and meetings.

Newprt praises the imprtance f daily laziness in this bk, writing, “Add regular and great freedm frm prfessinal cncerns int yur day, prviding yu with the idleness (闲散) required t get deep wrk dne.” He advises ding this by shutting everything dwn at the end f the wrkday.
Deep Wrk is packed with useful tips and tls fr making meaningful changes. Since picking up the bk several weeks ag, I’ve been using bits and pieces f the philsphy, such as leaving my phne n silent all day lng and checking it nly at predetermined times, and nt allwing myself t lk things up nline until I’ve finished writing an article. Nw I’m able t start additinal prjects that I’ve been wanting t d but haven’t felt like I had the time befre.

Peple refer t never frgetting hw t ride a bike r thrw a baseball as examples f “muscle memry”, the result f a mtr learning. _____16_____ It is a phenmenn that previusly trained muscles acquire strength after a perid f disuse.
Previus research has shwn that the changes actually persist in the muscles themselves. In ne study f mice, the results suggest that after nuclei in muscle cells multiply in respnse t an verlad f training, thse extra nuclei aren’t lst during subsequent perids f inactivity. They are retained (保留), essentially waiting t be reactivated. If yu fell ff the fitness wagn (马车) during the pandemic, dn’t be frustrated. Once yu have gt additinal nuclei, yu are banking the capacity. _____17_____ In fact, a recent study revealed that less than eight weeks f retraining were needed t regain yur frmer fitness. It depends n hw fit yu were initially, hw lng the layff was, hw ld yu are and hw lng yu’d been exercising.
_____18_____ It means yu still have a distinct advantage when it cmes t regaining yur frmer level f fitness. And the principle applies t bth resistance training and endurance training. The best way t regain yur muscle memry is t start at a level belw what yu were accustmed t ding, and then gradually increase in terms f duratin, frequency, then intensity. _____19_____
Ultimately, muscle memry is a payff fr all the past wrk yu put int learning a sprt. _____20_____ Yu will never knw hw much muscle memry yu may have until yu start training again.
A. The best way t tap int it is t “get back n the hrse”.

C. This cnvinces the researchers that muscle memry may nt be lng lasting.
D. That is t say, we can d the sprts autmatically withut cnscius thught.
E. It is generally safe t increase these elements by 5 percent every week r tw.
F. It is evident that the mre yu exercise the mre muscle memry savings yu will have.

In 1968 a grave dating frm abut 1100 was uncvered near Hattula in Finland, Little remained f the ccupant’s skeletn, but the inhumatin included tw swrds and a knife. Such grave gds wuld nrmally suggest said ccupant was a man. The skeletn was, ___21___ als decrated with brches (胸针) and wllen clthing f types mre usually wrn at the time by wmen. This ___22___ guess that the burial was actually f a pwerful wman, pssibly a lcal ruler in her wn right rather than just the wife f a male king.
This wuld be ntewrthy enugh. But a re-examinatin f the remains, just published in the Eurpean Jurnal f Archaelgy by Ulla Milanen f the University f Turku and Elina Salmela f the University f Helsinki, suggests the truth may be yet mre ___23___. Ms. Milanen and Dr Salmela suspect that the individual ___24___ may have had utward characteristics f bth a man and a wman.
In 1968 wrking ut the ___25___ f a skeletn in an ancient grave was tricky. After years f deteriratin, the bnes f men and wmen lk pretty much ___26___. But that was befre the use f DNA became pssible. S Ms. Milanen and Dr Salmela thught it wrth trying again.
Mst peple have tw sex chrmsmes (染色体): XX in wmen and XY in men. Find DNA frm a Y-chrmsme in a skeletn and the chances are the bdy was ___27___. And, lking at a fragment f femur brught t her by Ms. Milanen, wh is the archaelgist in the ___28___, Dr. Salmela, wh is the geneticist, did indeed find such DNA. But nt much f it. That led her t wnder abut cntaminatin (污染), but als t cnsider whether the individual in the grave had had a(n) ___29___ X-chrmsme that was swamping the signal frm the Y.
Having an abnrmal number f sex chrmsmes is rare, but nt vanishingly s. The particular ___30___ XXY leads t what is knwn as Klinefelter’s syndrme. T determine the ccupant’s karytype (染色体组型) frm the tiny amunt f DNA available, Dr. Salmela drew ___31___ with living peple. The grave delivered 8,329 pieces, s she used a cmputer t draw samples f similar size frm the genmes f living peple with varius karytypes, including XXY, and als frm mixtures f bth sexes, t ___32___ cntaminatin. She then cmpared these with the DNA frm the grave and ___33___ it was 99.75% prbable the individual cncerned had indeed had Klinefelter’s syndrme.
While Dr Salmela was wrking all this ut, Ms. Milanen and her team had anther lk at the grave. They cnfirmed that it was a ___34___ burial. Fr instance, they fund evidence f fine furs, prbably frm fxes. Clearly, this was a well-respected human being, but what led t that ___35___ in a wrld then dminated by male values is a matter f puzzle. Perhaps the persn came frm a family pwerful enugh fr such things nt t matter.
21. A. therefreB. what’s mreC. neverthelessD. fr instance
