London Review Bookshop

This wonderful bookshop that opened in 2003 comes from the smart people of the London Review of Books.

The sun was rising as we drove across the Minnesota state line to New York for my new Ph.D．program. The move was good for me professionally, but I worried about my husband and daughters. I also feared that I wouldn’t be able to give my kids the childhood they deserved.

Anne, our first daughter, came into the world when I was a junior majoring in biology in college. It was challenging to balance classes, work schedules, and being a mom. But I got through it, finding moments of joy along the way. On the nights when I was home, I’d read my class notes out loud with my daughter. She’d respond by asking questions, such as “Mom, what are bacteria?” It helped us both learn.

After I graduated, I knew that I would need a Ph.D．to land the kind of job I wanted. I arrived in New York feeling more than the usual new-grade-student anxiety. I also suffered from a more personal fear that I was being selfish—that my decision to invigorate my career was going to have long-term negative impacts on my kids.

Over the past year, though, I’ve started to let go of some of this worry. I’ve realized that we have not only adapted to our new situation, but things are getting better. My husband landed a job that he is happy with. Anne dreams of becoming a marine biologist. Recently, while driving past the cancer institute I work at, Anne said, “Thinking about people having cancer is so sad, but I feel better knowing that you are researching it to help.”

Navigating academia as a young mother is hard, but it’s also rewarding. My kids are learning to look at the world through the lens (镜片) of science, and watching their mom succeed inspires them. I look forward to seeing them follow my footsteps, whatever path they choose.

24．How did the writer feel about the move for her Ph.D．program?

A．It was fruitful but exhausting. B．It was the last thing she would do.

C．It was hopeful but challenging. D．It was promising for the whole family.

25．Which can best replace the word “invigorate” in Paragraph 3?

A．boost. B．change. C．create. D．choose.

26．What could be inferred from Anne’s words in Paragraph 4?

A．People are afraid of having cancer. B．Cancer is health enemy No.1.

C．Her mother takes her job seriously. D．Anne is proud of her mother.

27．What might be the best title of the text?

A．Onwards and Upwards B．Double Gains of Mum’s Pursuit

C．Like Mother Like Daughter D．Generation Gap Narrowed by Love

C

Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are,like a nearby port or river.People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade.New York City,for example,is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River.Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million.But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time.Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight.In 1896,Dawson,Canada,was unmapped wilderness(荒野).But gold was discovered there in 1897,and two years later,it was one of the largest cities in the West,with a population of 30,000.

Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris.People went there for gold.They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers.The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warning.An avalanche(雪崩)once closed the path,killing 63 people.For many who made it to Dawson,however,the rewards were worth the difficult trip.Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold,4,000 got rich.About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.

But no matter how rich they were,Dawson was never comfortable.Necessities like food and wood were very expensive.But soon,the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found.The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down,and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska,they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come.Today,people still come and go—to see where the Canadian gold rush happened.Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City—its present population is 762.

28. What attracted the early settlers to New York City?

A.Its business culture.       B.Its small population.

C.Its geographical position.   D.Its favourable climate.

29. What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson?

A.Two-thirds of them stayed there.   B.One out of five people got rich.

C.Almost everyone gave up.        D.Half of them died.

30. What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson?

A.They found the city too crowded.     B.They wanted to try their luck elsewhere.

C.They were unable to stand the winter.   D.They were short of food.

31. What is the text mainly about?

A.The rise and fall of a city. B.The gold rush in Canada.

C.Journeys into the wilderness. D.Tourism in Dawson.

D

Which kind of diamond (钻石) is better for the environment and the world we live in: a diamond from a traditional mine or one made in a laboratory? It seems that everyone would think that man-made diamonds would be better. But wait a minute. Don’t draw your conclusion so quickly.

Some recent reports suggest the answer may not be so clear. At the very least, these reports provide evidence of tensions between two different sectors of the diamond industry. Lab-grown diamond companies say they are more moral and cause less harm to the Earth’s environment as they don’t have to dig deep into the earth for diamonds.

The traditional diamond sector notes that its businesses help the communities where they operate mines. It says they provide jobs, help build roads and other infrastructure (基础设施) and make investments in conservation (保护). Some companies, such as De Beers, work on both sides. De Beers sells natural and man-made diamonds.

In the United States, the Federal Trade Commission(FTC)investigates reports of deceptive, or misleading, advertising. In April, the commission sent warning letters to eight lab-grown diamond companies. One of the FTC’s concerns was the use of the word "eco-friendly", and similar terms, to describe diamonds made in a laboratory. The lab-grown process requires very high temperatures and uses a lot of energy.

Trucost is a company that estimates the costs of using natural resources. Asked by the Diamond Producers Association to study the issue, Trucost found the carbon intensity (强度) of natural diamonds was lower than lab-grown diamonds. The Trucost report did note that diamond miners should reduce their effect on the environment by using more wind power and sunlight.

The Reuters news agency reported that the International Grown Diamond Association did not immediately respond to requests for comments about the story.

32. What’s the opinion of traditional diamond companies about their business?

A. They refuse lab-grown diamonds.

B. They bring benefits to local people.

C. They cause less harm to the Earth’s environment.

D. They are more moral than lab-grown diamond companies.

33. Why were lab-grown diamond companies warned by FTC?

A. They sold false diamonds.          B. They teased customers.

C. They took unfair competition.       D. They made false advertisements.

34. What did Trucost advise diamond miners to do?

A. Use renewable energy.         B. Give up mining diamonds.

C. Change mining equipment.      D. Develop lab-grown diamonds.

35. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Is Natural Diamond Mining Coming to an End?

B. Do Diamond Miners Really Protect the Environment?

C. Which Kind of Diamond Is Better for the Environment?

D. Why Are Lab-grown Diamonds Environmentally Friendly?

Tips for Keeping Awake in Class

If you want to keep awake during class, sleep the night before your class. Students who doze(打瞌睡)in class often missed sleep the night before. Getting enough sleep is your first line of defense when it comes to staying awake in class.   36   For most people, eight hours of sleep is enough to get through the day, but your body may require more.

   37   This will train your body to know when it needs to be asleep and when it is time to wake up. Allow yourself time to relax before heading to bed by putting away your phone, homework, and other things that keep your mind active. Getting enough high-quality sleep can help you.

Another way is to take a shower before class.   38   The warm water from your shower raises your body temperature. This also increases your heart rate so your blood travels around your body faster. Finally, it helps deliver oxygen to your important organs so your body can work at the best level of efficiency.

   39   When your body is exposed to cold water, your blood will flow at a higher pressure, meaning that your circulation(循环)is even further increased. The cold water will also help wake you up because it will shock your body, forcing you to breathe more deeply.      40   And thus you will be more mentally sharp.

A. Having a warm meal also works.

B. This will increase your oxygen intake.

C. Perform a series of movements before sleep.

D. This helps you feel refreshed and awakens your senses.

E. For some extra energy, finish your shower with cold water.

F. Make sure to get some sleep if you have a class the next day.

G. Keep a regular sleep schedule by going to bed at the same time each night.

Hi Jack,

So glad to hear from you! And now I’m very happy to share something about Chinese tea culture in reply to your last e-mail. 

Chinese tea culture started about 4,000 years ago and drinking tea gradually became an amazing tradition.In China,people drink tea almost everywhere and in most of their spare time.

Some Chinese believe that tea benefits people’s health a lot.Drinking a cup of tea makes people relaxed and refreshed.Others treat guests or friends to tea drinking in social communication.

Probably,you’ve got a general picture of tea culture after my introduction.Then,how about coming to China to experience it yourself? Maybe,you will fall in love with it.

Yours,

Li Hua
