Tdd Bl, a retired businessman, culd never have expected that a wden cntainer he built in his frnt yard ne day wuld have the glbal impact it des tday.

Bl built a dllhuse-size structure that lked like a schlhuse n a pst and he put it in his yard as a free cmmunity library t remember his mther, wh was a bk lver and schl teacher. Bl's prttype gave birth t Little Free Library (LFL), a nnprfit rganizatin that seeks t place small, accessible bk exchange bxes in neighbrhds arund the wrld.

Almst everyne can register with LFL and start a library as lng as the persn keeps it in gd shape and makes sure that bk materials are apprpriate fr his/her neighbrhd.

The LFL Index lists the lcatins f all libraries with GPS crdinates (坐标)and ther infrmatin. Owners receive a sign saying “Little Free Library”.

Sme sidewalk librarians say they have met mre neighbrs since having a little library in their frnt yard. Bl is als mst prud f the way Little Free Library is bringing cmmunities tgether.

One f the main challenges facing many cuntries is hw t maintain their identity in the face f glbalizatin and the grwing multi­language trend. “One f the main reasns fr ecnmic failure in many African cuntries is the fact that, with a few imprtant exceptins, mther­tngue educatin is nt practiced in any f the independent African states.” said Neville Alexander, Directr f the Prject fr the Study f Alternative Educatin in Suth Africa at the University f Cape Twn.
In respnse t the spread f English and the increased multi­language trends arising frm immigratin, many cuntries have intrduced language laws in the last decade. In sme cuntries, the use f languages ther than the natinal language is banned in public spaces such as advertising psters. One f the first such legal prvisins (规定) was the 1994 “Tubn law” in France, and the idea has been cpied in many cuntries since then. Such effrts t gvern language use are ften cnsidered as futile by language experts, wh are well aware f the difficulty in cntrlling fashins in speech and knw frm research that language switching amng bilinguals is a natural prcess.
It is especially difficult fr native speakers f English t understand the desire t maintain the “purity” f a language by law. Since the time f Shakespeare, English has cntinually absrbed freign wrds int its wn language. English is ne f the mst mixed and rapidly changing languages in the wrld, but that has nt been a barrier t acquiring superirity and pwer. Anther reasn fr the failure f many native English speakers t understand the rle f the state regulatin is that it has never been the Angl­Saxn way f ding things. English has never had a state­cntrlled authrity fr the language, similar, fr example, t the Academic Francaise in France.
The need t prtect natinal languages is, fr mst western Eurpeans, a recent phenmenn—especially the need t ensure that English des nt unnecessarily take ver t many fields. Public cmmunicatin, educatin and new ways f cmmunicatin prmted by technlgy, may be key fields t defend.
28．Neville Alexander believes that ________.
A．mther­tngue educatin is nt practiced in all African cuntries
B．glbalizatin has resulted in the ecnmic failure f Africa
C．glbalizatin has led t the rise f multi­language trend
D．lack f mther­tngue educatin can lead t ecnmic failure
29.The underlined wrd “futile” (in Paragraph 2) mst prbably means “________”．
A．wrkable B．practical
C．useless D．unnecessary
30．What can we infer frm the last paragraph?
A．English has taken ver fields like public cmmunicatin and educatin.
B．Many aspects f natinal culture are threatened by the spread f English.
C．Mst language experts believe it is imprtant t prmte a natinal language.
D．Eurpeans have lng realized the need t prtect a natinal language.
31．The best title fr the passage is ________.
A．Fighting against the rule f English
B．Prtecting lcal languages and identities
C．Glbalizatin and multi­language trend
D．T maintain the purity f language by law

We've been cvering standing desks fr a lng time nw because experts agree that sitting all day is killing us. We want t be prductive while als keeping ur bdies healthy. Over the years, there have been several slutins t this frm fixed standing desks t adjustable nes, prtable desks t nes that change int shelves.
Hwever, the mst high­tech and elegant slutin has t be this new smart desk called the Stir Kinetic Desk. The desk learns yur daily behavir and mves between a sitting and standing height regularly thrughut the day t keep yu mving withut interrupting yur wrk flw.
Yu can prgram specific sitting and standing intervals r let the desk set the schedule. If yu tend t sit while returning emails in the mrning, but always want t stand during that afternn cnference call, the desk will learn thse regular habits and adjust the schedule t fit them. Of curse, the desk can always be manually lwered r raised by using the tuch screen n the lwer left crner f the desk.
When switching psitins, the desk gently dips and rises t let yu knw that a change is cming up. If yu're nt ready t switch psitins at that time, yu can tap the tuch screen t stay sitting r standing fr a while lnger.

All f that smart technlgy desn't cme cheap thugh. The M1 desk, which is the everyday mdel, runs a steep $2,990, while the mre executive mdel with added features, the F1, ges fr $4,190.
While expensive, it's wrth that thinking f hw much time we spend at ur desks. Much like a gd mattress (床垫), a gd desk that wrks with yu is wrth the investment. Hpefully in a few years these smart, integrated desks will be mre cmmn and less expensive.
