8、chasing me to kick my ass(屁股), and I was always running not to get my ass kicked. Nobody ran like me and my mom. She was a thrower, too. Whatever was next to her was coming at you. If it was something breakable, I had to catch it and put it down. If it broke, that would be my fault, too, and the ass
9、- kicking would be that much worse. We had a_Tom_and_Jerry_relationship,_me and my mom. She was the strict disciplinarian(纪律执行者); I was naughty as shit. She would send me out to buy groceries, and I wouldnt come right home because Id be using the change from the milk and bread to play arcade(街机) gam
10、es at the supermarket. Id drop a coin in, time would fly, and the next thing I knew thered be a woman behind me with a belt. It was a race.

16、to your place of work in the morning, are you walking in as yourself or as a stranger? While the workplace is a place to wear your professional face, its also a place where you should feel comfortable and connected to your coworkers. Theres a good reason for this: A new study finds that hiding your
17、true self at work is not good for your career and your sense of belonging in the workplace. “When someone hides their true identity, their social connections suffer and this has an impact not just on the individual, but also on the organization they work for,” says co- author Professor Manuela Barre
18、to. “Our findings suggest openness about ones identity is often beneficial for individuals, the group and their workplace.” When employers fail to create this sense of belonging among their employees, its difficult for the individuals to find their purposes in work. This then impacts their ability t
19、o be productive. More specifically, the researchers found that hiding these characteristics from coworkers reduces their self- respect, job fulfillment and job commitment. For the study, researchers at University of Exeter focused on commonly stigmatized(感到羞 耻的) characteristics, like having a histor
20、y of poverty or mental or physical illnesses. They sought to see how hiding such conditions could affect ones ability to grow. The findings were based on multiple studies they analyzed from the Netherlands and the USA. In one of the experiments, they had 95 men and women describe a time when they ei
21、ther hid or revealed(展现) a stigmatized characteristic about themselves. In another one, the researchers offered imaginary scenarios(情景) to 303 participants that again either hid or revealed themselves. In both experiments, participants were then asked how theyd feel after hiding or sharing the stigm
22、atized characteristic. The answers of those who hid themselves resulted in the conclusion stated above: lower sense of belonging and job fulfillment and commitment. So we need environments where people dont need to hide. Encouraging complete openness can turn the office into a more comfortable place
23、 that allows employees to enjoy working. 8. Why is Professor Manuela Barreto mentioned? A. To clarify the process of the study. B. To explain the findings of the study. C. To state the purposes of the study. D. To show the influence of the study. 9. What do the researchers find about employees who h
24、ide their characteristics? A. They always look down upon others. B. They are often content with their work. C. They are likely to get tired of their work. D. They can ruin their coworkers confidence. 10. What were participants in both experiments required to do? A. To tell their stigmatized memories
25、. B. To participate in real scenarios. C. To describe others characteristics. D. To report their true feelings. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. Openness is beneficial to your job promotion. B. Stigmatized characteristics need hiding properly. C. Hiding who you are is harmful in the workpla
26、ce. D. The sense of belonging benefits employees a lot. D A favorite dish for purple sea urchins(海胆) living off the coast of California is kelp(巨藻). The problem is, those kelp forests are shrinking rapidly and thats hurting the oceanic ecosystem. So a group of scientists carried out an experiment to
27、 see if these sea urchins can themselves become a dish. Just off the coast, three divers get ready to jump in. Theyre students from Moss Landing Marine Laboratories. The task: Count purple sea urchins. Their professor, Luke Gardner expects theyll find plenty of urchins. And thats not a good thing. “
28、What they do is they just eat everything in sight,” Gardner says. These purple creatures are eating up Californias kelp forests, which provide food and shelter for numerous sea animals. The problem began around 2014. Thats when Gardner says warmer ocean temperatures began affecting the reproduction
29、of kelp. Its also when a disease killed off sunflower sea stars, a killer of purple sea urchins. Therefore, the purple sea urchin population grows very fast. The divers bring Gardner quite a lot of purple sea urchins. Whats inside is the part we eat, the uni(海胆黄)a type of delicious food in Japanese
30、cuisine. “The problem with these purple sea urchins is that when you open them up, sometimes theres nothing in there. And they might be a little smaller compared to market- sized urchins,” says Gardner. Then, it is time for the taste test. The class crowds into the kitchen of the restaurant Aubergin
31、e. Here, chef Justin Cogley serves uni from around the world. He opens up the purple sea urchins, taking the orange uni out and prepares it on a fried potato. “Honestly, its rich and buttery,” Cogley says. His conclusion? Hell serve it. Its a tasty end to the project. But this could be just the begi
32、nning. A company called Urchinomics has been selling its human- raised urchins in Japan. Now, it is working to secure a site in California.
