17、llage Gastrotheque, people pack the restaurant waiting to dine on mussels（蚌）. For two years, I worked weekends there, screaming over the chat of excited guests and French jazz. By Sunday I almost lost my voice. Its unavoidable that customers led to their teacup-size tables would ask, “Is this really
18、 where were sitting?” Usually I responded jokingly, “Im afraid I dont have anything smaller.” Wed force our way through the crowd and theyd push themselves into their backless seats. Usually they were hungry and upset. An hour into my work, I was driven crazy, and I couldnt remember my own name.In a
19、 place this busy traditional wine service requires dexterity(娴熟). Sometimes I would rather put the bottle down and leave without repeating the ceremonial uncorking（拔去塞子） ,but I never did. After I got the customers to put their phones away and pay attention, I presented the bottle and often asked whe
20、ther theyd had the wine before, and if so, where. Id shout, “Did you know this wine is found only in a remote region of France?”While uncorking the bottle, Id learn that they were old friends seeing each other for the first time in decades, or were just visiting New York. Theyd learn that I love win
21、es from the Loire or that I wanted to work at Buevette based on one of Jodys dishes years earlier. The whole point of the talk was to build a relationship. Thats why I poured small glasses of wine: Every time I circled back to refill them, it was another opportunity to connect.People often say to me
22、 now, “You cant possibly miss waiting tables.” What I do miss is creating space for the surprising, tiny acts of graciousness（亲切）that happen over food.The art of good service is a two-way street on which strangers strike a lovely balance.24.

25、ything from cellphones and laptops to electric cars. For a lot of people, that would probably be enough. But at 94 years old, hes still at it. “All the young people that I had are getting ready to retire.” says John Goodenough, laughing.Now, Goodenough and his team say theyve created a new battery t
26、hat may store up to five times more power than current ones. And, even better, such a battery would charge and recharge in a matter of minutes all without exploding. The possible future effects are huge.“If we can really lower the price of these batteries, theres so much you can do with them.” says
27、Goodenough, who teaches material science at the University of Texas. Such batteries could store renewable energy to power homes, boats and be used to make cheaper electric cars. “You can name it.” he says, “I mean there are just so many things.”But how does it work? Helena Braga, a researcher of the
28、 new technology, shows me around the lab. There are beakers（glass containers used in a lab）lined up, wires connected to experiments going on and big cupboards that are covered so that nothing gets polluted.Where most batteries use a liquid to allow a charge to flow between the - 7 -positive and nega
29、tive sides, Braga explains to me Goodenoughs team is using a lithium glass. This glass with a new design allows their battery to perform so much better.But many others are skeptical. “If you could accomplish what this paper reports, it would rewrite the way we think about chemistry.” says Dan Steing
30、art, a professor at Princeton. He says batteries are covered, so its hard to know whats really going on. “The process described appears to be against the first law of thermodynamics（热力学） .”he adds. Goodenough responds to the question with a laugh, “We havent broken any laws of thermodynamics, and we
31、 can prove that.”28.According to the passage, we can learn _A. Goodenough is a very serious and strict man.B. Goodenough is not content with his achievements.C.

Uncaring. C. Doubtful. D. Supportive.DSometimes we need to complain about the place where we work. Whether its
34、 the long hours you put in, an unreasonable boss, or lack of recognition for your - 8 -effortsevery workplace has enough fuel to set fire to that frustration.When I was a policeman, all of the first officers would complain that the detectives would never perform actively if they werent around. Funni
35、ly enough, on more than one occasion, I heard the detectives say the same thing. Good news is, this workplace complaining is actually beneficial to your mental well-being and to the productivity in the office.Dr. Vanessa Pouthier, a researcher at the University of Melbourne, studied a team of nurses
36、 and health professionals at a United States hospital, finding there are actually benefits to these kinds of complaining actions. She observed the joking and complaining that went on for over 12 months and realized “It helps people to process stress and frustration and you notice obvious changes whe
37、n team members are involved in both activities.”No matter what kind of environment you work in, there will always be a corner of the office or the lunch room, where a small or large group of employees are complaining to some degree. “Generally, people dont think theres any value to it or they think
38、it has no place in the workplace.” Dr. Pouthier says. But this common activity in every workplace was so under-researched that she had to look into other fields, such as linguistics (语言学), to better understand its functions.Whether its politely debating the effectiveness of how an office runs, or co
39、mplaining about the bosses, Dr. Pouthier found these complaints served as a bonding function and can even re-energize a workplace, helping employees work through their negative feelings. “It allows people to recognize how similar they are in the challenges theyre facing every day and how they feel a
40、bout them. One of the best things in the team I observed was that those complaints helped doctors and nurses realize they were feeling the same way about situations, and they werent that different. Those complaints are not necessarily calls for change; they are calls for sympathy.” she said.32. In w
41、hat way does complaining benefit people according to Dr. Pouthier?A. Helping them release stress. B. Improving their sense of - 9 -humor.C. Giving them more chances to get a pay rise. D.
