    What do you want to be when you grow up? 1.When you are asked the question, did you have an answer at the ready, or did you need a few minutes to think about it? We all have dreams of becoming something great, like a fireman, a teacher, or a rock star. Well, how did you do? Maybe you never desire to be what you set out to be or said that you would become. 2. The older we get, our tastes change, our view of the world changes, even our goals change.

If you are unhappy in your current situation, why not take steps now to change it? 4.If you are already there, I applaud (鼓掌) you. If not, realize that it may take some time to figure out what you really want to do, and even more time to actually get there. That’s all right! I can tell you from experience that finding and doing what you love are absolutely worth it. All of the research, training, and hands-on experience have made me a stronger, happier person.

    The bad health effects of sleep loss during the week can’t be repaid by longer weekend sleep, according to a new study.

Researchers have long known that sleep deprivation (剥夺) can cause weight gain and increase other health risks. But for those who force themselves out of bed every weekday after too few hours of shut eye, they hope turning off the alarm on Saturday and Sunday will repay the weekly sleep debt and remove any ill effects.

The research, published in Current Biology, crushes those hopes. Despite complete freedom to sleep during a weekend recovery period, people in a sleep lab who were limited to five hours of sleep on weekdays gained nearly three pounds over two weeks and experienced disorders that would increase their risk for diabetes over the long term. While weekend recovery sleep had some benefits after a single week of sleep loss, those gains were wiped out when people fell right back into their same sleep deprived schedule the next Monday.

''If there are benefits of catch-up sleep, they're gone when you go back to your daily schedule. It's very short lived'', said Kenneth Wright, director of the sleep and chronobiology lab at the University of Colorado at Boulder. ''These health effects are long term. It's kind of like smoking once was-people would smoke and wouldn't see an immediate effect on their health, but people will say now that smoking is not a healthy lifestyle choice. I think sleep is in the early stage of where smoking used to be.''

Wright said that the study suggests people should put sleep in the first place cutting out the ''sleep stealers'' such as watching television shows or spending time on their phones. Even when people don't have a choice about losing sleep because of child-care responsibilities or job schedules, they should think about getting sleep in the same way they would get a healthy diet or exercise.

1.What does the underlined word ''rushes'' mean?

A.Ruins. B.Guarantees.

C.Deepens. D.Arouses.

2.What will Kenneth Wright agree with?

A.Smoking is more harmful than sleep loss.

B.Weekend recovery sleep has many benefits.

C.Smoking and sleep loss have the same bad effects.

D.It takes long for people to see the effects of sleep loss.

3.What does Kenneth Wright advise people to do?

A.Take regular exercise every day.

B.Reduce the screen time before sleep.

C.Watch some TV shows before bedtime.

D.Sleep as long as possible during weekdays.

4.What is the main purpose of this passage?

A.To share some unhappy experiences. B.To show some unknown facts.

C.To promote a healthy lifestyle. D.To introduce a new study.

    Amazon is opening its 12th high-tech convenience store Tuesday in New York. The spot will be the first of the chain to allow customers to pay with cash. The move comes with growing resistance against cashless stores, which critics say refuse to serve people who don’t have bank accounts.

At other locations of the store, shoppers enter by scanning the Amazon Go app. That's still the case for customers paying with a credit card, but people paying with cash will have an “entry associate” scan them through the turnstiles (旋转栅门). Once they’re finished, those shoppers will check out with an Amazon Go employee and receive a paper receipt. Cashless customers can still walk out by scanning a phone that has the Amazon Go app at the turnstiles. Customers using the Go app can exit without waiting and get a digitized receipt.

The 1,300-square-foot New York store-the first Amazon Go store on the East Coast-will offer prepared foods, such as sandwiches and salads, It will also have Amazon Meal Kits and locally made options.

Amazon says it will begin accepting cash at its other Go stores “over time.” A number of retailers (零售商) and restaurants, such as Sweetgreen and Dos Toros Taqueria, are facing roadblocks to their cashless recommendations.

New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy recently signed a law banning cashless stores in that state. Philadelphia also passed a law to prohibit cashless stores earlier this month, and officials in New York City, Washington and San Francisco are considering similar moves. The federal government does not require retailers to accept cash.

“While card-only may be convenient for some businesses, it can actually be discriminatory against poor communities that don’t have as much access to banks or lines of credit,” said New Jersey State Senator Nellie Pou, who sponsored the state’s new law. Not accepting cash could also be bad for business. Americans use it in 30% of all business deals, according to a 2017 report from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco.

1.Why is Amazon opening a new store accepting cash?

A.To persuade those critics. B.To obey the local regulations.

C.To improve its retail service. D.To compete with cashless stores.

2.What will shoppers paying with cash do at the new store?

A.Exit in line with a digitized receipt.

B.Walk out by scanning a phone with the Go app.

C.Enter through the turnstiles by scanning a phone

D.Check out with an employee and get a paper receipt.

3.How did some states and cities react to cashless stores?

A.By making laws to stop them.

B.By requiring retailers to run them.

C.By learning from Amazon to improve them.

D.By following the federal government to accept them.

4.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

A.It s necessary to make cashless stores easily accessible.

B.More banks should be built in poor communities.

C.Card-only payment is convenient for business.

D.Not accepting cash has its disadvantages.
