We are sitting at lunch when my friend casually mentions that she and her husband are thinking of “starting a family.” What she means is that her biological clock has begun its countdown and she is considering the possibility of motherhood(母亲身份).
“We are taking a survey,” she says, half-jokingly. “Do you think I should have a baby ”
“It will change your life,” I say carefully.
“I know,” she says,“No more sleeping in on Saturdays, no more relaxing vacations. ”
But that is not what I mean at all I look at my friend, trying to decide what to tell her.
I want her to know what she will never learn in childbirth classes. I consider warning her that she will never read a newspaper again without asking “What if that had been my child ”That when she sees pictures of starving children, she will look at the mothers and wonder if anything could be worse than watching your child die.
I feel I should warn her that no matter how many years she has invested in her career, she will be professionally disturbed by motherhood.She might successfully arrange for child care, but one day she will be waiting to go into an important business meeting, and she will think about her baby’s sweet smell. She will have to use every ounce of discipline to keep from running home, just to make sure he is all right.
I want her to know that however decisive she may be at the office, she will second- guess herself constantly as a mother. That her life, now so important, will be of less value to her once she has a child. That she will give it up in a moment to save her child, but will also begin to hope for more years, not so much to realize her own dream, but to watch her child realize his.
My friend’s surprised look makes me realize that tears have formed in my eyes. “You will never regret it,” I say finally.
(24)According to the author, what will happen to her friend once she has a child

The bad health effects of sleep loss during the week can’t be repaid by longer weekend sleep, according to a new study.
Researchers have long known that sleep deprivation(剥夺)can cause weight gain and increase other health risks. But for those who force themselves out of bed every weekday after too few hours of shut-eye, they hope turning off the alarm on Saturday and Sunday will repay the weekly sleep debt and remove any ill effects.
The research, published in Current Biology, crushes those hopes. Despite complete freedom to sleep during a weekend recovery period, people in a sleep lab who were limited to five hours of sleep on weekdays gained nearly three pounds over two weeks and experienced disorders that would increase their risk for diabetes(糖尿病)over the long term. While weekend recovery sleep had some benefits after a single week of sleep loss, those gains were wiped out when people fell right back into their same sleep deprived schedule the next Monday.
“If there are benefits of catch-up sleep, they’re gone when you go back to your daily schedule. It’s very short-lived”, said Kenneth Wright, director of the sleep and chronobiology(生物钟学) lab at the University of Colorado at Boulder.“These health effects are long-term. It’s kind of like smoking once was--people would smoke and wouldn’t see an immediate effect on their health, but people will say now that smoking is not a healthy lifestyle choice. I think sleep is in the early stage of where smoking used to be.”
Wright said that the study suggests people should put sleep in the first place--cutting out the “sleep stealers” such as watching television shows or spending time on their phones. Even when people don’t have a choice about losing sleep because of child-care responsibilities or job schedules, they should think about getting sleep in the same way they would get a healthy diet or exercise.
(28)According to the new study, what is the effect of sleep deprivation
A.Sleep deprivationwill repay the weekly sleep debt.
B.Sleep deprivationcan make yougainweight.
C.Sleep deprivationwill remove any ill effects.
D.Sleep deprivationcan reduce the risk of diabetes.
(29)What will Kenneth Wright agree with
A.Smoking is more harmful than sleep loss.
B.Weekend recovery sleep has many benefits.
C.Smoking and sleep loss have the same bad effects.
D.It takes long for people to see the effects of sleep loss.
(30)What does Kenneth Wright advise people to do
A.Take regular exercise every day.
B.Reduce the screen time before sleep.
C.Watch some TV shows before bedtime.
D.Sleep as long as possible during weekdays.
(31)What is the main purpose of this passage
A.To share some unhappy experiences. B.To show some unknown facts.
C.To promote a healthy lifestyle. D.To introduce a new study.
D
While physical bookshops had to close their doors during the lockdowns, sales rose strongly.
Barbara White is the buyer and children’ s book manager at Wimbledon Books, an independent store in southwest London. “Obviously we had to close, but we did click-and-collect, which, in the run-up to the 2020 Christmas, was crazily busy,” she says. “ People were rediscovering books and wanting to be supportive.”
After the Christmas period, sales did begin to falter , but Ms White says a website called Bookshop.org appeared. An online retailer (零售商) of new books that first started in the US in January 2020, it shares its profits (利润) with independent physical bookstores.
Customers order from Bookshop.org, and the books are sent out from a wholesaler. Independent shops registered with (在....登记) Bookshop.org are not involved in this process; however they still get to share about a third of its profits every six months.
In addition, independent stores get all the profits from the sale of books on Bookshop. org from orders that originate through links (链接) from their own websites, social media posts, or email newsletters.
“Our goal is to help independent bookshops get a bigger share of online sales,”says Nicole Vanderbilt, managing director of Bookshop.org’s UK arm.
However, some people are arguing that it would still be better if customers buy direct from an independent bookstore.
One author who is focused on independent shops is Robin Ince, who is also a comedian, actor, and co-presenter of BBC podcast The Infinite Monkey Cage. He has just published his latest book,The Importance Of Being Interested, and is now on a tour of more than 100 such UK bookshops to sell the book.
He says that while many bookshops suffer heavy losses because of COVID-19, they still show their true worth.“Independent bookshops have kept going, and their relationship with their customers has improved,”he says.“Some got on their bikes and sent their books to people' s front doors.” Mr Ince hopes that independent physical bookstores are here to stay despite (尽管) the advantages of buying online.
(32)What kept Wimbledon Books busy before the 2020 Christmas
A.The rising sales of books.
B.The new books from Bookshop.org.
C.Preparing gifts for readers.
D.Rediscovering wonderful books for readers.
(33)What does the underlined word “falter” in paragraph 3 mean
A.Quicken. B.Double. C.Drop. D.. Remain.
(34)What can be learned about the registered independent bookshops on Bookshop.org
A.They must be American bookstores.
B.They must draw in new customers continuously.
C.They can get all the profits related to themselves.
D.They should pay the online retailer one third of their income.
(35)Which of the following about independent bookshops might Mr. Ince agree with
A.They will disappear soon.
B.They have upgraded their services.
C.They need to change their sales model.
D.They have improved their shopping environment.

Reading is a very good way to learn a new language and culture. ___36___
Firstly, it’s important to choose a book which is the right level for you.
