27、te(女人气的) male stars. However, it turns out that not everyone is a fan of them.On Sept 6, an article published by Xinhua News Agency described some male stars as too effeminate.This came after CCTV was criticized for inviting several young male stars to perform on First Class for the New Semester, an
28、 educational TV show for primary and secondary school students, which aired on Sept 1. Afterwards, many parents left comments online, saying the stars in the show had a bad influence on their children.The popularity of effeminate male stars is partly due to the influence of Japanese and South Korean
29、 pop culture, Fan Xiaoqing, an expert on South Korean movies at the Communication University of China, told China Daily.8However, the “femininity” of males isnt a recent social phenomenon. In fact, being effeminate was popular among Chinese men during the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern dynasties
30、, especially among aristocrats and scholars, according to China Daily.Indeed, the debate about effeminate male stars has been going on for a while.In July, Hong Kong singer-actor Nicholas Tse said during the singing reality show China New Singing he feels tired of seeing effeminate male stars.“It is
31、nt that theyre not good, but we should discover ourselves, rather than imitate. Men should get their hormones back,” he said during the show.His opinion was shared by Chinese director Feng Xiaogang. “Some young actors are feminine and they should be more manly,” he said during the Shanghai Internati
32、onal Film Festival in June 2017.However, others have a more open mind toward this phenomenon. “Its stereotypical（刻板的)to think all male stars should be masculine, like Jackie Chan. As society diversifies, there are more options for fans to choose from,” Liang Yurou, 19, a college student from Fujian
33、province, told China Daily.Deng Xiquan, head of the Youth Research Institute at the China Youth and Children Research Center, believes such a phenomenon is completely natural.“Its only a central issue temporarily and will be replaced by a new youth culture at some stage. If a man has feminine beauty
34、, this doesnt mean that he lacks responsibility,” Deng told China Daily.Dengs opinion was echoed by the Peoples Daily. “A mans strength should be judged on the basis of their inner qualities not their physical appearance.” it wrote.28. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passa
35、ge?A. CCTV was widely praised for inviting several young, effeminate male stars.B. Effeminate male stars become popular totally because of the influence of Japanese and South Korean pop culture.9C. It is a whole new social phenomenon that being effeminate was popular among Chinese men.D. Some parent

Feminine men will be a ting of the pastDIt is normal to feel a little sleepy after eating lunch. Some people believe that there is a significant shift
39、in blood flow from the brain to the stomach. Although this sounds plausible, it doesnt really make much sense. If this were the case, why wouldnt we feel sleepy after having a large breakfast or after dinner?People may argue that there are some elements that cause sleepiness within food. They think
40、there are some foods that may make you feel a little sleepy. In addition, they believe drinking alcohol may also cause sleepiness. In most cases, this is not what contributes to sleepiness after lunch, however.In fact, it has more to do with the natural timing of an increasing 10tendency towards sle
41、ep. There are two phenomena that contribute to this: the sleep drive and the circadian rhythm(生理节奏) .The sleep drive is due to the gradual build-up of a chemical within the brain called adenosine. The longer a person stays awake, the more adenosine accumulates, leading to an increasing desire for sl
42、eep. This reaches its peak right before bedtime, but it is also higher in the afternoon compared to the morning.The second process that contributes indirectly to sleepiness is the circadian rhythm. It is actually the pattern of an alert signal. It increases throughout the day to keep us awake and ac
43、t against the increasing levels of adenosine. There is a dip (下降 ) in this pattern in the early afternoon, typically 7-9 hours after waking up. When the alerting signal dips, the potential sleepiness shows itself, and we feel sleepy.To deal with the sleepiness that occurs in the early afternoon, you
44、 can use caffeine or even take a short nap. Fortunately, if you tough it out, this period will pass and you will find that you feel more alert again in a matter of hours.32.
