22、Developing friendship with other people is essential in our lives due to our own very nature. 【1】 Therefore, we need to love and to be loved to become fully human beings, as love is the highest form we can relate with others and one of the most distinct features of our species.
Here are 4 key points to develop and sustain a true friendship.
Take responsibility of your own emotions.
【2】 Sometimes we can’t realize that we are presenting the bad power to him /her. Being aware of that, we would be better if we take responsibility and embrace the emotions that come up in our inner world instead of stopping the relationship or blaming the other for what we are feeling.
【3】
The primary goal of friendship is to love, because this is our most inherent need. But love has no other object than love. Therefore, the value of our friendship with others is not because of the usefulness of the relationship. Our love for a person should not depend on their capacity to improve the conditions of our life. On the contrary, feeling the joy of having a true friendship is what we need.
Seek the good of the other person.
When we love another person, we seek the good of the other because we rejoice in their own happiness. Therefore, our seeking for the other person’s good is totally disinterested. 【4】
Acts of love are made for its own sake.
Embrace the differences.
Friendship doesn’t mean having the same interests, opinions and mindset as the other person.
Friendship is therefore a practice of unconditional love, an opportunity to grow together towards fulfillment, and a journey to unfold the most precious capacities of a human being. 【5】
A.Human beings are relational beings.
B.Why not cherish it with your own heart?
C.Look at the other as an end not as a means.
D.Recognize the necessity of the close relationship.
E.We usually blame the other person for what we feel.
F.The mode of friendship differs from person to person.
G.We serve the other without expecting anything in return.
23、Sleeping badly or working night shifts could be making you fat, weak and more likely to become diabetic. A study has revealed sleep loss changes the way people’s DNA works and makes the body more dedicated to storing fat. Muscles get smaller and fat stores begin to rise when people lose as little as one night’s sleep, the experts found. Although midnight snacks or being too tired to exercise could be blamed for tired people getting fatter, there may now be a more scientific reason.
Researchers have linked losing sleep to weight gain in the past but have found it difficult to explain—now they reveal it could be linked to the body clock. And a tired body also becomes less able to handle sugar in the blood which raises the risk of someone developing type 2 diabetes.
Sleep researchers from Uppsala University in Sweden did a study on 15 people who they tested after a full night’s sleep and after a sleepless night. They took fat and muscle tissue samples and collected blood from the healthy weight participants and found the way their DNA works had changed. The researchers say their findings are important because high levels of body fat increase the risk of the world’s biggest causes of death: cancer, heart disease and stroke.
People’s sensitivity to blood sugar is also dampened when they’re tired, the study found, which suggests those who don’t sleep well are at higher risk of type 2 diabetes. “We saw that the fatty tissue is attempting to increase its capacity to store fat following sleep loss.” said Dr Cedernaes, “And we observed signs of breakdown of skeletal muscle. We also noted changes in levels of proteins involved handling blood glucose. This could help explain why the participants’ glucose sensitivity was impaired following sleep loss.”
Taken together, these observations may provide at least partial insight as to why chronic sleep loss and shift work can increase the risk of adverse weight gain as well as the risk of type 2 diabetes.
【1】If you sleep badly or work night shifts, what may not happen to you according to the text?
A.You can be fat, weak and more likely to become diabetic.
B.Your body may become less able to handle sugar in the blood.
C.You might develop a habit of eating midnight snacks or being too tired to exercise.
D.Your body is more absorbed in storing fat.
【2】Which of the following statements the author may agree with?
A.Researchers have never connected losing sleep to weight gain before.
B.The participants’ glucose sensitivity was destroyed following sleep loss.
C.The researchers have fully understood why sleep loss accounts for weight gain.
D.A sleepless night can also have a negative impact on our bodies.
【3】What does the underlined word “dampened” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Decreased.
B.Transformed.
C.Transmitted.
D.Promoted.
【4】What does paragraph 3 mainly focus on?
A.The importance of the new findings.
B.Why lack of sleep accounts for weight gain.
C.How the research was conducted.
D.High levels of body fat can lead to many diseases.
24、 About a billion birds die from flying into buildings each year in North America. Suspicions have been that birds may regard the open areas behind glass as safe passageways. Or they may mistake the reflected trees for the real thing.
Researchers would like to reduce collisions, which requires a solid understanding about what makes a bird more or less likely to die by crashing into a building in the first place.
“There was relatively little known at a broad scale. Previous studies were at one small study site.' Jared Elmore, a graduate student in natural resource ecology and management at Oklahoma State University. So he and his colleagues used a previously created data set of building collisions for birds at 40 sites throughout Mexico, Canada and the U.S.
The first finding was obvious: bigger buildings with more glass kill more birds. But the details were more remarkable. "We found that life history predicted collisions. Migrants(候鸟), insect-eaters and woodland-inhabiting species collided more than their counterparts(同类).”
Most migratory species travel at night, when lights near buildings can distract or disorient(使迷失方向)them. And Elmore thinks that insect-eating birds might be attracted to buildings because their insect prey(猎物)is attracted to the lights. He suspects that woodland species get tooled by the reflections of trees and bushes in the windows. The results are in the journal Conservation Biology.
By understanding which birds are more likely to collide with buildings, researchers can perhaps determine the best way to adapt buildings, or their lighting, to help prevent such accidents. And by knowing risks, along with migration timing and behavior, building managers can better predict when birds are at their greatest danger - and improve lighting strategics accordingly.
Elmore's next project will use radar to help predict bird migrations. " I think that would maybe go a long way in terms of providing information to people, to the public, to building managers, on when they can get the most benefit in terms of lights-out policies."
【1】What is the possible reason for birds' crashing into buildings?
A.They didn't see the buildings.
B.They took reflections for reality.
C.They assumed the windows to be open.
D.They considered buildings as safe routes.
【2】What is Jared Elmore's study different from the previous ones?
A.It created a new data set.
B.It went beyond national borders.
C.It covered a wider range of sites.
D.I’ll studied some specific bird species.
【3】What was the most noticeable finding of Jared Elmore's study?
A.Migratory species travel at night.
B.Birds tend to be misled by glasses.
C.Bigger buildings cause more collisions.
D.Birds living habits give rise to collisions.
【4】Which of the following can help reduce bird collision?
A.Adjust the lightening system.
B.Attach radars to each building.
C.Adopt strict lights-out policies.
D.Ban using glasses on buildings.

Running individual official accounts on social-networking app WeChat has become a new channel for Chinese people to express themselves, according to a survey.
At present, many media organizations, companies and individuals in China have launched official accounts on WeChat, making efforts to attract more subscribers to expand their reach. Over 66 percent of 2,001 respondents said they were willing to set up individual official accounts while 27.2 percent said they had already started such accounts.
The survey, published by the China Youth Daily, also said expressing feelings and views, as well as gaining popularity, was the top reasons why people wanted individual official accounts. More than half of individual official accounts offered content concerning personal views and feelings, as well as entertainment and recreation information, the survey said.
Of more than 540 respondents that have individual official accounts on WeChat, 5 percent claimed that they had built popular 'self-media' brands using the accounts, while 12.2 percent said they had made money from the accounts through advertising. Meanwhile, 42 percent said their accounts had limited influence with only a few subscribers.
