At high school I couldnt read the blackboard. By the time I got to the university of Bath to study Chemistry it had got to the point where

18、I couldnt really see images at all, only the difference between light and dark. And a few years later, once I was in the first year of my PhD, I was almost completely blind.But climbing is my great passion. I started climbing when I was young. My dad taught me everything about climbing. When I was 1

19、1, I led my first climbing route outside. People are usually amazed when they discover that not only do I climb, but I also lead climbs.At university I joined the Mountaineering Club and was able to climb much more frequently. We had regular trips to indoor walls and weekends away outdoors. I develo

20、ped a great circle of climbing friends and went on several trips to Europe. After these I started Alpine climbing and ice climbing, too.When my sight dropped to a level where I could no longer read, I thought I might have to give up leading. But I never thought I would stop climbing. I just learnt t

21、o adapt with the support of my friends.People often ask me, “Why rock climbing? It doesnt seem like a good activity for a blind person.”But when I think about the danger, crossing the road is far more dangerous, and also, its something where Im not in control.Its quite possible that I wouldnt be suc

22、h a good climber if I werent blind. If I didnt have these challenges, it wouldnt focus me. That determination is built through my disability.When I reach the top of a climb, I dont get to appreciate the view, but the feeling of achievement is extremely good.Climbing is a way to prove my way of think

26、make up for your lost sleep during the weekends. But is it useful?A study published in the journal Current Biology shows that the habit of sleeping in on weekends doesnt fix the damage that has been done by a lack of sleep during the week. Even worse, it may damage your health.In the study, which wa

27、s conducted over 10 days, 36 healthy young men and women with different sleep requirements were divided into three groups. The members of the first group were asked to sleep nine hours a night and the second group five hours a night. The members of the third group slept for five hours on weekdays bu

28、t rested as long as they wanted on the weekend.The researchers found that people who lacked sleep ate more snacks and gained weight quickly. However, this wasnt the case for the first group.That could be partially due to the shifting of the biological clock and changes to certain body hormones, espe

29、cially hunger hormones. In order to catch up on their sleep during weekends, people in the third group would eat later as a habit. So their biological clocks shifted, which also changed the production of hunger hormones.“The hormone leptin (瘦素) decreases appetite (胃口), while the hormone ghrelin (饿素)

30、 increases appetite，” explained US researcher Vsevolod Polotsky. “Sleep shortage causes leptin to drop and ghrelin to rise, so youre hungry and eat more.”And even if they tried to sleep for as long as they wanted to during weekends, according to researchers, it was still not enough because they foun

31、d it difficult to fall asleep.Moreover, short and insufficient sleep schedules will lead to an inability to change blood sugar and increase the risk of metabolic (新陈代谢) disease in the long term.28Which of the following is TRUE about the study?学科网（北京）股份有限公司AParticipants were divided into two groups.B

Today, we have navigational(导航的)systems to help us find our way, the latest of which is the Beidou Navigation Satellite System (BDS).The BDS is entirely built by Chinese engineers.

36、f Hellobikes bicycles, you are using the BDS. “The intelligent lock on each bike receives Beidou satellite signals and sends positioning information to the data center which will help collect big data on the bikes and predict users riding needs in advance according to the data，” Chu Yiqun, a manager

Though the first generation of Beidou could only send 120 character

39、s in a single message at that time, communication between affected areas and rescue(救援) centers was successful. Now, Beidous messaging ability has been increased to 1, 200 Chinese characters in a single message. It is widely used in disaster alarms, automatic identification and information release.A
