“That’s nt kay, and why is that s hard?” she recalls thinking. “Hallmark fr sure has t have this figured ut, right?” But after sme research, she realized n majr greeting card cmpany had fund a slutin, s she decided t take it upn herself.
“I never imagined myself being a business wner r a bss, but if there is a prblem that needs a slutin, why nt give it a try,” she says. Rulli’s cmpany, The Thught, ffers a large selectin f greeting cards. Frm adptin cngratulatins t “Just Because”, there is smething fr every ccasin. Thrugh this, her cmpany, The Thught, was brn. Shppers can find different cards, (stamp included) in her nline stre. They can als select frm a lt f add-ns, such as handwritten ntes, cash, r gift cards. The best part, hwever, is their free reminder service that allws custmers t create an accunt and set imprtant dates they want t remember. “Tell us what yu want t remember r wh yu want t remember, and we’ll make sure yu never frget it,” she says.
One f The Thught’s key values is “determined abut being myself”. After her career in plitics, she has cme t deeply appreciate being herself, and wants peple t be unafraid t be themselves.
“Even if I disagree with a persn n abslutely everything under the sun, I always want t say, That’s still OK. Yu d yu,” she says. “I think we’re all better ff as families and cmmunities when we’re cnsiderate f all f ur differences, and we still shw up as urselves, instead f smething ther than that.”

It was a quiet early afternn in the library, and we librarians were enjying a chat at the library desk. Suddenly, a regular reader, wh had been reading a magazine, marched up t us, gave us an annyed “Shush (嘘)!” and went back t her seat.
Shcked int silence, we tried nt t laugh. Hw strange fr a grup f librarians t be shushed by a reader! Shuldn’t it be the ther way arund?
Well, it seems hard t explain. If yu’re a baby bmer (婴儿潮出生的人) like me, yu prbably remember libraries as places f adults’ silent reading. These days, hwever, libraries are mre like busy cmmunity centers, where being nisy t sme degree is the new nrmal, especially when kids are taking part.
I am a lud librarian. My vice is naturally n the luder side. The hundreds f prgrams I led as a children’s librarian were filled with singing, dancing, mvement exercises and cheerful readings f bks with crwds f children and their caregivers. N shushing allwed!
Grwing knwledge abut the imprtance f kids and teens learning thrugh hands-n experiences has since caused a sea change in hw public libraries cnnect with yung readers. These types f prgrams like bard games, petry reading and stry times certainly aren’t designed t be silent.
But it’s a balancing act. Nt all readers—r librarians—like the idea f a nisy library. It’s clear t me nw that n the day my clleagues and I were shushed by a reader, we shuld have been using ur “library vices” as we talked. Still, it’s unlikely that libraries will ever return t the days when they were places f silence. There’s just t much fun and learning happening. I heartily agree with my friend Rachel Payne, an early-childhd service educatr at the Brklyn Public Library, wh tld me, “When I visit a library and it is quiet, I always feel a bit depressed. A library where cnversatins are happening and tables are full is a very gd thing!”
28. Hw did the authr think f the shush frm a reader?
A. Unexpectedly funny.B. Really annying.
C. Quite necessary.D. Very heartwarming.
29. What can be inferred abut tday’s libraries?
A. They serve kids nly.B. They becme quieter.
C. They are less ppular.D. They have different functins.
30. Why des the authr qute Rachel Payne?
A. T make the end interesting.B. T intrduce a gd educatr.
C. T present the authr’s viewpint.D. T prmte a new reading methd.
31. What is the best title fr the text?
A. It’s Necessary fr Librarians t Change.
B. It’s Acceptable fr a Library t Be Nisy.
C. Hw t Cnduct yurself in the Library?
D. Why Shuld We Keep Silent in the Library?
D
If yu’re ut fr a run, what difference des it make if yu’re able t tugh it ut fr anther 50 secnds? If yu’re less than a minute frm the tp f the hill, that extra time can make the difference between having reached yur gal and snatching defeat frm the jaws f victry.
Hw d yu get thse extra secnds f energy? A research team at the Texes Tech University develped a study t measure what effect listening t music wuld have n exercise tlerance. The researchers based the study n a stress testing. As part f the testing, they nted any changes in heart rate and bld pressure as participants did physically stressful exercise.
The tests were dne n treadmills (跑步机),which increased in bth speed and incline (坡度) thrugh three stages. In the final stage, the treadmills mved at 10 miles per hur at a 14-percent grade. Mst f these tests were designed t last up t 40 minutes. The average gym-gers lasted 30 minutes. Fr this study, they divided 127 participants int tw grups. One listened t upbeat (快节奏) music, while the ther grup had ear buds in but did nt listen t music.
The grup that listened t music was able t utlast the nn-music grup by an average f 50.6 secnds. Again, being able t g an extra minute may seem like a n-brainer, but “after 30 minutes, yu feel like yu are running up a muntain, s even being able t g 50 secnds lnger means a lt,” said the study’s lead authr, Waseem Shami, MD.
The study has prved smething runners and gym-gers have dubted fr years: Listening t music during wrkut can be beneficial t yur endurance. “Our findings strengthen the idea that upbeat music can help yu exercise lnger and stick with a daily exercise rutine,” said Shami. “When dctrs are recmmending exercise, they might suggest listening t music, t.”
32. Why did Shami’s team cnduct the research?
A. T test the effect f music n health.
B. T knw the cause f failure in sprts.
C. T imprve runners’ exercise tlerance.
D. T recrd the bdy change f participants.
33. What did the researchers find abut the participants in the stress testing?
A. They ran much faster than average runners.
B. They created a new recrd f indr sprts.
C. They culd run a little lnger with music n.
D. They all enjyed extreme physical challenge.
34. What d the underlined wrds “a n-brainer” mean in paragraph 4?
A. A dull activity.B. A flish actin.
C. A demanding task.D. An easy practice.
35. What did Shami suggest us ding in the last paragraph?
A. Develping a daily exercise rutine.
B. Listening t music while wrking ut.
C. Participating in physical stress testing.
D. Taking exercise as dctrs recmmend.

Green exercise is a term used t describe any type f physical exercise that takes place in a natural envirnment, rather than in a health club r gym. 36 Instead, it relies n the use f natural means f taking part in activities that imprve strength and endurance with as little reliance n equipment as pssible.

Nt everyne believes that green exercise is mre beneficial than wrking ut in a health club r gym. 40 Meanwhile, the use f fitness devices may result in mre challenging wrkuts, which help strengthen the heart and lungs in ways that mre simplistic exercise in a natural setting wuld be difficult t manage.
