21、HOT on the heels of equality
【1】 They lengthen the legs but shorten the steps; they give the wearer a sense of power but can also be painful to wear; they are worn by working women, but their visual appeal has nothing to do with work.
In Japan, a new social media campaign highlights the issues many women have with this footwear. 【2】In May, thousands of women signed an online petition(请愿书)demanding that the government ban the practice.
“【3】” said the movement founder Yuni Ishikawa, 32 yeas old, in an interview with the Associated Press. “It’s the view that appearances are more important for women at work than for men.”
As early as January, Ishikawa shared her frustration about the unfairness of this dress code on the Instagram social network. In her part-time job as a funeral usher(迎宾员), she was required to wear black heels between 5 and 7cm high.【4】. “High heels can cause bunions, blisters and strain the lower back. It’s hard to move, you can’t run and your feet hurt,” Ishikawa wrote in the petition, “【5】“
It’s a modest dream. Not too long ago, Japanese businessmen were expected to wear neckties, even on hot days. Then, the government encouraged companies to use less air conditioning and reduce electricity use. Men were freed from neckties. “This petition is the first step toward ‘creating a working environment free from unnecessary burdens’.” Ishikawa said.
A.It’s unreasonable.
B.This is about gender discrimination.
C.She would come home with bleeding toes.
D.I hope there will come a day when women don’t have to wear heels in the workplace.
E.High-heeled shoes are loaded with contradictions.
F.They are upset that many companies require women to wear high heels to work.
G.It would be great if the country had a similar kind of campaign about neckties.

23、 The giant panda is beloved of conservationists. It is one of the most recognisable large animals in the world. But it is also evolutionarily odd. It is a type of bear but it is a herbivore(食草动物). It is ironic, then, that this icon of the natural world might actually be an accidental consequence of human activity. Yet this is a convincing interpretation of results just published in a paper in Current Biology, by Wei Fuwen of the Institute of Zoology, in Beijing.
Pandas are not merely herbivores, they are monovores-merely eating bamboo only. Dr Wei wondered when this transition to monovory happened. The answer was, far more recently than anyone had expected.
Dr Wei studied carbon and nitrogen isotopes(同位素) in the bones of a dozen ancestral pandas, dating from between 11,000 and 5,000 years ago, and compared them with those of modern pandas. The study shows that the ancient pandas lived in more varied environments and had broader diets. What is more, they were not yet the obligate(专性的) bamboo feeders which they are today, and they were making subtropical zones and open land their home, rather than living merely in bamboo forests. The question is, what made them change?
There is one obvious possible cause: the spread of man. Organised states clearly existed by about 5,000 years ago. Growing human populations could easily have displaced the ancestors of modern pandas to fringe areas where there was little to eat but bamboo. And if bamboo is all there is to eat, then those that prefer to eat it will be at an evolutionary advantage. The modern, bamboo-eating panda-symbol of animals under pressure from man-may thus have been made the way it is by precisely such human pressures.
【1】How did Dr. Wei conduct research into the transition of pandas?
A.Studying the diets of pandas.
B.Calculating the number of pandas.
C.Studying the structure of genes of pandas.
D.Analyzing the isotopic composition of pandas’ bones and teeth.
【2】What may lead to the change of pandas’ broad diets to eating bamboo only?
A.The change of their genes.
B.The intended invasion of other herbivores.
C.The unintentional expansion of human activity.
D.The decline in their habitat and thus the shortage of food.
【3】What can be the best title for the text?
A.Panda Evolution: By the Hand of Man? B.Panda: beloved but odd
C.Panda: Herbivores or Monovores? D.A Study of Ancient Pandas
24、 Photographic self-portraits have existed for as long as cameras have been in human hands. But what about selfies in space? On Twitter last year, NASA astronaut Edwin Buzz Aldrin, who famously became the second man to walk on the moon in July 1969, laid claim to a spaceflight first; taking the first selfie in space during the Gemini XII mission in 1966.
“For me, it needs to be digital to be a selfie.” argues Jennifer Levasseur, a director at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. According to Levasseur, the concept of a selfie is directly linked to internet culture. “The thing that makes a selfie a selfie is sharing it.” she says.
Still, astronauts have been carrying cameras aboard space vehicles since the 1960s. In 1966, Aldrin used a Hasselblad camera designed specifically for space, with an extra-large trigger to accommodate the astronaut's thick gloves. Hasselblad also painted the first camera in space a matte black to reduce reflections in the orbiter window. But cameras used in space need to survive extreme conditions, like temperature swings from - 149° to 248°F, so Hasselblad painted later models silver.
Astronauts visiting the moon then had to take out the film magazines and leave their camera bodies behind when they returned to Earth, because early space missions were limited by a weight limit on the return trip. Then a big change in space camera technology came after the space shuttle Columbia broke apart on its return to Earth in 2003. Levasseur notes. “Fear that they’d never be able to bring film back from space and lose all that hard work” accelerated the push for digital, she says.
Today, astronauts also have access to internet and social platforms in space and can post true space selfies made using digital cameras. Similarly, space robots are participating in selfie culture, capturing remote pictures of themselves in space or on other planets and sending them back to Earth.
【1】Why do selfies in space need to be digital according to Jennifer Levasseur?
A．Astronauts are fond of studying technology.
B．Astronauts are eager to improve themselves.
C．Astronauts desire to communicate on social platforms.
D．Astronauts want to take some related information back.
【2】Why can the Hasselblad camera adjust to the temperature changes in space?
A．It is painted silver.
B．Its matte black gathers light.
C．Its trigger is large enough.
D．It can reduce reflection itself.
【3】What contributed to the faster development of camera technology in space?
A．The heavy space tasks.
B．A spaceflight crash.
C．A damaged space shuttle.
D．The improved film.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．The Origin of Selfies in Space
B．The Popularity of Selfies in Space
C．The Significance of Selfies in Space
D．The Brief History of Selfies in Space
