3、. Animals take care of this problem in different ways.Anolis lizards live in many areas including tropical rainforests. They often sleep on leaves at the end of long branches. A leaf might seem like a strange bed, but it works like an alarm. If a hungry snake wiggles a branch, the lizard wakes up an

4、d leaps to safety.Chimpanzees take their sleep very seriously. Each day, a chimpanzee builds itself a new, comfortable bed to sleep in. Scientists believe chimpanzees carefully choose a tree that is strong, where they build a nest using branches and leaves.Parrotfish live among coral reefs in oceans

5、. Every night, parrotfish usually sleep close to the rock in sheltered places. Some parrotfish go one step further by quickly making a slime layer that covers their whole body.

9、ean.D. They sleep the least of all animals.BAndrew Bastawrous was 12 when he found out he could barely see. He was then socially awkward, failing at school and terrible at ball games.Glasses turned his life around, yet even as a child he was aware of how lucky he was. Bastawrous grew up in the UK, b

10、ut his family would visit poor parts of Egypt, where his parents were from. “Nobody there wore glasses, but I knew some people needed them,” he says. “It feltincredibly unfair. At 16, I decided I wasnt going to feel guilty about it any more.” He determined there and then to become an eye surgeon, an

11、d he did.In 2012, he and his wife moved with their one-year-old son to a small town 5 hours drive from Nairobi. They had limited electricity and running water. For 18 months, every time Bastawrous and his team set up their “mobile” eye clinic in yet another new location, they had to drag heavy, frag

12、ile hospital equipment cross-country. There was another problem, as one local doctor described it, “We dont even have enough doctors and now you also want eye surgeons? Thats probably a pipe dream.”All this convinced Bastawrous that something fundamental was needed. So he started exploring ways to r

13、eplace his clinic with a single, convenient device: a smartphone. He co-developed an app-based visual test that gathers as much information as the classic one, using similar principles. The critical difference is that almost anyone can carry it out after just a few minutes of training. Bastawrous co

14、-founded a charitable company to develop and apply the technology more widely. His team also developed technologies that enabled a smartphone camera to take hospital-grade images of the back of the eye.Thats a pretty good start, but Bastawrous has his sights set sky high. “I feel were at a tipping p

19、ew study released last week, researchers analyzed data from two large-scale (大规模) surveys about how Americans spend their time. Together, the surveys included more than 35,000 respondents. The researchers found that people with more free time generally had higher levels of subjective well-being but

20、only up to a point. People who had around two hours of free time a day generally reported they felt better than those who had less time. But people who had five ormore hours of free time a day generally said they felt worse. So ultimately the free-time “sweetspot” might be two to three hours per day

21、, the findings suggest.Part of finding this seemingly tricky “sweet spot” has to do with how people spend the extra time they have, the researchers behind the new study argue. They conducted several smaller online experiments. In one they asked participants to imagine having 3.5 to 7 free hours per

22、day. They were asked to imagine spending that time doing “productive” things (like exercising) or to imagine doing “unproductive” activities ( like watching TV). Study participants believed their well-being would suffer if they had a lot of free time during the day but only if they used it unproduct

23、ively. Though that experiment was hypothetical, which is one limitation of the new research, its certainly in line with other research showing that being in a state of “flow” can be good for peoples mental health.Of course, what feels “productive” is up to you. Many traditionally productive or purpo

24、seful activities can be easy and fun. Engaging in a bit of low-key cardio, like walking and jogging, can help burn stress. Free-time activities like reading or cooking are also known to put people in a state of flow.28. What does the underlined word “elixir” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Magic solution

By giving interviews and mental tests.C. By comparing respondents backgrounds.D. By conducting experiments and analyzing data.30. What is a dis

26、tinct finding of the new research?A. Doing unproductive things leads to unhappiness.B. Being in a state of flow benefits peoples mental health.C. Mans well-being is positively related to the free time they have.D. How people spend their free time affects their sense of well-being.31. What is the foc

27、us of the last paragraph?A. The importance of burning stress.B. Easy and fun activities to kill time.C. Further explanation of being productive.D. The benefits of engaging in free-time activities.DEven when communing with nature we depend on technology for help but then, so did Thoreau (梭罗) at Walde

28、n Pond (瓦尔登湖).Walking in the same woods yesterday, I let myself wander at random, communing with nature.I took in beautiful scenery near and far thanks to my progressive-lens eyeglasses. Occasionally Id pull out my smartphone to take pictures on anything interesting. I recorded an inner monologue wi

29、th a background of all sounds of the forest. At times, I consulted my smart watch to check on my heartbeat, mileage and calorie burn. Eventually I realized I was quite lost. Not a problem of course. Online maps came to my rescue.But something bothered me. In what Id intended as a nature experience,

30、here I was using very high technology to help myself out. This insight triggered a reconsideration of everything that happened during my “nature walk,” which had been technologically enhanced every step of the way. Id been functioning as a man-machine combination: a cyborg.What would the true natura

31、list Thoreau think of that? My first thought was that hed be shocked. But later I did some research. Thoreau enjoyed what his spyglass discovered, like this eagle from his journal:Lying on the ground with my glass, I could watch him very easily till I almost lost him in the clouds I think I have got

32、 the worth of my glass now that it has revealed to me the white-headed eagle.Famously, Thoreau always set out equipped with a walking stick, which he used not only for support but also to take measurements of water and snow levels. His hat was also a tool, which he called his “botany-box.” And he wa

33、s prepared even with needles and thread, so when coming out of the woods, he was “the best dressed.” Clearly, Thoreau was a bit of a cyborg himself.Thinking more deeply, I realized weve come a long way from our hunter-gatherer ancestors, who walked from necessity and relied on natures gift. Cyborgs

34、are us. 32. What is the purpose of the text?A. To recommend Thoreaus book Walden Pond.B. To argue that humans have developed into cyborgs.C. To share the reflections on mans reliance on nature.D.
