26、ury, Pete developed glaucoma(青光眼 ) and cataracts(白内障 ). Today, Pete has permanent vision loss in his injured eye because of his bottle rocket injury. June is Fireworks Eye Safety Awareness Month, and through its EyeSmart campaign the American Academy of Ophthalmology(眼科学 ) wants to remind consumers
27、to leave fireworks to professionals(专业人员 ). “There is nothing worse than a Fourth of July celebration ruined by someone being hit in the eye with a bottle rocket“, said Dr John C. Hagan, clinical correspondent for the Academy and an ophthalmologist at Discover Vision Centers in Kansas City. “A safe
28、celebration means letting trained professionals handle fireworks while you enjoy the show“. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, more than 9,000 fireworks-related injuries happen each year. Of these, nearly half are head-related injuries, with nearly 30 percent of these injuries
29、 to the eye. One-fourth of fireworks eye injuries result in permanent vision loss or blindness. Children are the most common victims of firework abuse(伤 害 ), with those fifteen years old or younger accounting for 50 percent of fireworks eye injuries in the United States. Dr Hagan estimates that his
30、practice sees more than 30 injuries each year from fireworks. Even fireworks that many people consider safe represent a threat to the eyes.

He looked at his budg
35、et and decided he could save a lot of money by shopping for clothes at thrift shops. “Even new clothes are fairly disposable(用后即丢掉的 ) and wear out after a couple of years“, Barth said. “In thrift shops, you can find some great stuff whose quality is better than new clothes“. Since then, Barth, who w
36、orks at a Goodwill thrift shop in the U.S. state of Florida, has found that there are all kinds of reasons for shopping for second-clothing. Some people, like him, shop to save money. Some shop for a crazy-looking shirt. And some shop as a means of conserving energy and helping the environment. Pat
37、Akins, an accountant at a Florida Salvation Army(SA)(救世军 ) thrift shop, said that, for her, shopping at thrift shops is a way to help the environment. “When my daughter was little, we looked at it as recycling“, Akins said. “Also, why pay 30 dollars for a new coat when you can get another one for a
38、lot less“? Akins said that the SA has shops all over the U.S. “some as big as department stores“. All of the clothes are donated(捐赠 ), and when they have a surplus(盈余 ), theyll have “stuff a bag“ specials, where customers can fill a grocery sack with clothes for only 5 or 10 dollars. Julia Slocum, 2
39、2, points out, however, that the huge amount of second-hand clothing in the US is the result of American wastefulness. “Id say that second-hand stores are the result of our wasteful, materialistic culture“, said Slocum, who works for a pro-conservation organization, the Center for a New American Dre
40、am. “Thrift shops prevent that waste from going to landfills(垃圾填埋场 ); they give clothing a second life, provide cheaper clothing for those who cant afford to buy new ones and generate(生成 ) income for charities. They also provide a way for the wealthy and middle classes to shed(摆脱 ) some of the guilt
41、 for their level of consumption“. 36 Which statement about Barth is NOT true? ( A) He is 33 years old now. ( B) He works at a Goodwill thrift shop. ( C) He works at a Salvation Army thrift shop. ( D) He was a college student many years ago. 37 When Barth was a college student, he often shopped at th
42、rift shops_. ( A) to save money. ( B) to save energy. ( C) to help the environment. ( D) to make friends with poor people. 38 What does Akins do? ( A) She is a soldier. ( B) She is an accountant. ( C) She is a saleswoman. ( D) She is a road sweeper. 39 Thrift shops can do everything EXCEPT_. ( A) gi
43、ve clothing a second life. ( B) generate income for charities. ( C) provide cheaper clothes for the poor. ( D) stop rich people from wasting money. 40 The word “thrift“ in paragraph I could be best replaced by_. ( A) charity. ( B) one dollar. ( C) first class. ( D) two dollars. 41 College Night Owls
44、 Have Lower Grades College students who are morning people tend to get better grades than those who are night owls(晚睡的人 ), according to University of North Texas researchers. They had 824 undergraduate(大学本科生的 ) students complete a health survey that included questions about sleep habits and daytime
45、functioning, and found that students who are morning people had higher grade point averages(GPAs) than those who are night people. “The finding that college students who are evening types have lower GPAs is a very important finding, sure to make its way into undergraduate psychology texts in the nea
46、r future, along with the research showing that memory is improved by sleep“, study co-author Daniel J. Taylor said in a prepared statement. “Further, these results suggest that it might be possible to improve academic performance by using chronotherapy(时间疗法 ) to help students retrain their biologica
47、l clock to become more morning types“, Taylor said. The research was expected to be presented Monday at SLEEP, the annual meeting of the Associated Professional(专业的 ) Sleep Societies, in Baltimore. In other findings expected to be heard at the meeting, University of Colorado researchers found a sign
48、ificant association between insomnia(失眠 ) and a decline in college students academic performance. The study included 64 psychology, nursing and medical students, average age 27.4 years, who were divided into two groups low GPAs and high GPAs. Among those with low GPAs, 69.7 percent had trouble falli
49、ng asleep, 53.1 percent experienced leg kicks or twitches(痉挛 ) at night, 65.6 percent reported waking at night and having trouble falling back to sleep, and 72.7 percent had difficulty concentrating during the day. “In college students, the complaint of difficulty concentrating during the day continues to have a considerable impact on their ability to succeed in the classroom“, study author Dr James F. Pagel said in a prepared statemen
