Natins with large amunts f wind and slar in their pwer grids (电网)are particularly expsed t rising energy bills due t sharp increases in the gas price. The relatinship between decarbnisatin and swings in prices has been a cntrversial (有争议的)issue as gvernments cnsider clean energy strategies, but an analysis f pwer prices has nw prvided evidence t infrm the debate.
Vast quantities f wind and slar capacity have been intrduced acrss Eurpe in recent years, but these pwer surces are intermittent, generating electricity nly when winds blw r the sky is cludless.
Gas pwer plants, which can be switched n and ff relatively easily,are frequently relied n t prvide pwer when renewable generatin is lw. But gas is ften the mst expensive surce f pwer, and electricity market rules mean the mst expensive generatr sets the price fr the entire market.
Raúl Baj-Buenestad at the University f Navarra and his clleagues fund natins with mre wind and slar in their pwer systems were mre vulnerable(易受影响)t natural gas price shcks. Spain, fr example, has large vlumes f slar pwer and is particularly sensitive t pwer price changes. “If yu have natural gas, wind and slar， this is ging t make the perfect ccktail fr yu t be vulnerable,” says Baj-Buenestad.
It is the need fr flexible generatin alngside wind and slar that is the issue. Baj- Buenestad pints ut that ther natins with lw-carbn pwer grids, such as Nrway and France, rely n hydrpwer and nuclear technlgy, which are reliable generatrs. “We dn't see a clear crrelatin between decarbnisatin and sensitivity t natural gas price changes,” he says.
Slving the prblem will require natins t replace gas as the back-up fuel f chice. One answer is fr grid peratrs t push the pwer system t becme better able t absrb peaks and valleys in generatin. “The underlying message is that getting a flexible system is nw as imprtant as building renewables,” says Michael Grubb at University Cllege Lndn.
28. What des the cntrversial issue in the first paragraph refer t?
A. Hw rising gas prices will affect pwer grids.
B. Which cuntries may face higher energy bills.
C. What shuld be included in clean energy strategies.
D. Whether carbn cuts are linked t varying pwer prices.
29. What des the underlined wrd “intermittent” in paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Faulty.B. Cstly.C. Unstable.D. Inefficient.
30. Why is natural gas still needed in high-renewable-energy systems?
A. It helps lwer energy csts.
B. It can quickly fill gaps in supply.
C. It ensures cnsistent market prices.
D. It is a key driver f energy innvatin.
31. What might be an ideal cmbinatin f pwer surces?
A. Slar and gas.B. Nuclear and gas.
C.Slar and wind.D. Nuclear and wind.

When we sleep, ur brain is still actively prcessing the day’s experiences and integrating them with past memries. Previus studies have identified links between pupil (瞳孔) size and sleep state, as well as between sleep state and memry frmatin. Hwever, it has been unclear hw fresh memries are prcessed withut blurring int ld nes. Fr example, hw d we learn t play the pian withut frgetting hw t ride a bike?
Researchers at Crnell University addressed this questin by attaching brain-scanning electrdes and tiny eye-tracking cameras t mice. They mnitred the mice as they learned new tasks during the day, such as navigating a maze, and then bserved them during sleep. (Fun fact: mice can sleep with their eyes pen.)
The study revealed tw distinct substages during nn-rapid eye mvement (NREM) sleep, a critical perid fr memry frmatin. One substage replayed new memries, cinciding with narrwed pupils. The ther invlved recalling lder memries, marked by widened pupils. These stages alternated rapidly. The team als discvered that during the narrwed pupil stages, blcking sharp-wave ripples (SWRs) limited the mice’s ability t remember new infrmatin.
It is als fund that the brain has an intermediate (中间的) perid that separates new learning frm ld knwledge. The results suggest that the brain can multitask distinct cgnitive prcesses during sleep t facilitate cntinuus learning withut interference. It’s like new learning, ld knwledge, new learning, ld knwledge, shifting slwly thrughut sleep.
The implicatins f the study are far-reaching: such a nn-invasive means f mnitring brain functin may help treat memry issues and bst memry, fr example. The study als supprts the hypthesis (假说) that human brains and cmputer systems may significantly frget ld infrmatin. Catastrphic frgetting, knwn in AI, is an area where machines still lag behind bilgy. What’s mre, the findings prvide a ptential slutin fr preventing catastrphic interference while enabling memry integratin in bth bilgical and artificial neural netwrks.
Despite the many similarities between human and muse brains, similar studies need t be cnducted in humans t verify these results.
32．What d researchers at Crnell University fcus n?
A．Hw pupil size is related t sleep state.
B．Hw peple learn t perfrm new tasks.
C．Hw memries are kept withut interference.
D．Hw sleep state is cnnected with memry frmatin.
33．What is the finding f the study?
A．Blcking SWRs remves ld memries.
B．The brain prcesses new memries first.
C．Widened pupil is assciated with replaying new memries.
D．A transitinal stage distinguishes ld memries frm new nes.
34．What is the implicatin f the study?
A．It prvides an invasive slutin t memry study.
B．It helps avid large-scale interference and integrate memry.
C．It denies that brains and cmputers may frget infrmatin dramatically.
D．It supprts that machines perfrm better in catastrphic frgetting than brains.
35．Which f the fllwing can be a suitable title fr the text?
A．Cde f Memry Integratin in Sleep.
B．Rle f Sleep in Memry and Learning.
C．Pupil Size: A Windw int Human Brain.
D．A Breakthrugh: Hw Mice Sleep with Eyes Open.

When we train urselves t ntice and value psitive emtins, we can becme happier. 37 They ften struggle t feel pleasure, a cnditin called anhednia (unable t experience jy). A 2023 study shwed that therapy fcusing n psitive emtins helps mental health mre than treatments just reducing negative symptms.
A great way t strengthen reward sensitivity is t plan a small, fun activity daily. 38 Describe it in detail, fcusing n the feelings and experiences. This practice, knwn as“savring (尽情享受),” makes psitive feelings strnger and gives yu mre mtivatin t seek similar experiences in the future.
39 . Instead f simply labeling an experience “gd”, use mre precise wrds like“thrilled,” “inspired, r “peaceful”. Sharing psitive mments with thers can make these mments even mre meaningful, strengthening scial bnds and spreading happiness.
It’s imprtant t remember that embracing happiness desn’t mean ignring pain. 40 By using these strategies in yur daily life, yu can cultivate a strnger sense f reward sensitivity and change hw yu experience and pursue happiness.
A．Afterward, take a mment t recall the experience.
B．It’s the ability t find and truly enjy psitive experiences.
C．We ften avid such activities, which make ur md decline.
D．This is especially imprtant fr thse with depressin r anxiety.
E．This practice helps yu better understand and enjy psitive feelings.
F．Despite life’s challenges, feeling jy helps restre balance and tughness.
G．Beynd savring, expanding yur emtinal vcabulary can als help.

In a lively city, there was a small bkstre hidden between tw tall buildings. It wasn’t the mst attractive place, but it had an undeniable charm. The wner, David, had inherited (继承) the stre frm his grandfather. Every day, he pened its creaky (吱嘎的) drs and greeted his custmers with a smile, even thugh his heart was heavy.
David had been struggling with his business fr mnths. Online stres had taken ver the market, and fewer peple walked int his stre. He had always believed in the magic f physical bks, but with bills piling up and his savings running lw, he was beginning t lse hpe.
One rainy afternn, as David sat behind the cunter, staring at the clsed sign n the dr, a yung wman entered. Her name was Sphie, and she was new t the city. She had heard abut the bkstre frm a friend and decided t check it ut.
Sphie wandered thrugh the passages, running her fingers alng the spines f the bks. There was smething warm and cmfrting abut the place — despite its wrn-ut shelves and faded sign utside. After a while, she picked up a bk n gardening — a tpic she had recently becme passinate abut — and brught it t the cunter. David greeted her, still burdened by his wrries.
“Yu seem like yu’re really int gardening,” he said sftly.
Sphie smiled. “Yes, it’s been such a peaceful escape fr me lately.”
David rang up the bk and said, “I hpe it helps yu grw yur garden. Plants are like peple. They need care, but they can really blm if yu give them the right envirnment.”
Befre leaving with the bk, Sphie turned t him. “There’s smething special abut this place. I hpe yu keep it pen fr a lng time.”
David watched as she stepped ut int the rain, her smile lingering (萦绕) in his mind. That night, fr the first time in weeks, he didn’t feel the heavy weight f wrry. Instead, he thught abut Sphie’s wrds. Maybe it wasn’t abut making the stre bigger r mre ppular. Maybe it was abut creating an envirnment where peple felt welcmed — and that was enugh t keep ging.
