We had a fantastic time meeting local people, exploring beautiful places and eating delicious food. After this experience traveling across China and eating local food, I re
20、ally wondered “How did I live without eating dumplings and eggplant on a weekly basis?” Well, I guess I did, somehow, for 22 years!As my Chinese improved during my studies I became more independent and more aware of the possibilities of Waimai, or food home delivery. I suddenly noticed the thousands
21、 of Waimai drivers zooming across the roads on their motorcycles. On deep, dark Beijing winter days and rainy days, Waimai is like the holy grail and as I enjoyed my take - away dumplings I would think and laugh to myself, “How did I live before without being able to get Waimai?” Well, I guess I did
22、, somehow, for 23 years!In mid-2015, I was back in China again for my masters degree. Thats when I came across my first Mobike: “Oh, thats a unique bike and surely it will get stolen soon ”, I thought as I passed on my own black bike. But one week passed and I saw it still there. Then the one Mobike
23、 sighting turned into two and three, and soon thousands and then seemingly overnight the streets of Beijing were flooded with orange and yellow wheels.

However, a university in G
28、uangxi Zhuang autonomous region is trying to put a stop to this trend on its campus.On Nov 1, Guangxi University of Foreign Languages banned food delivery services and disposable food boxes, both to its campus and dormitories.The ban immediately received fierce criticism from the universitys student
29、s, as well as internet users. Some complained that the ban made campus canteens very crowded. “There are not enough seats in the canteen, which forces us to eat standing up or squatting,” a student in the university surnamed Tan told Guangxi Television.The crowded canteens also mean that extra time
30、is spent dining, which could have been used to nap during the lunch break. Some even complained that the canteen only provides a few dishes, most of which dont taste so great. Su Junlv, from the universitys student affairs office, explained that the ban was carried out because off-campus food posed
31、safety risks for students. Its believed that take-away food had created a serious garbage problem, as there were often a large number of used food boxes found in campus garbage cans after students had finished their meals.According to Su, the ban was also brought in to help students develop a health
32、y lifestyle. “While food delivery services bring convenience, they let students form some lazy habits,” Su told Xinhua. “They spend a whole day in the dorm playing video games, watching TV soap operas and ordering food online.”However, in the eyes of Liu Junhai, a professor at Renmin University of C
33、hina, there are other approaches that universities could take to improve their students meal times. “Universities should explore how to improve the dining experience in the canteens, such as the queuing and variety of dishes,” he told Xinhua. 28.

36、of used food boxes.C. force students to spend less time on entertainment.D. improve the dining experience in the canteens.31. What can we infer about Liu Junhais attitude to the ban?A. Negative B.

37、d in unfamiliar surroundings is a phenomenon known as the First-night, effect. If a person stays in the same room the following night they tend to sleep more soundly. Yuka Sasaki and her colleagues at Brown University set out to investigate the origins of this effect.Dr. Sasaki knew the first-night
38、effect probably has something to do with how humans evolved.The puzzle was what benefit would be gained from it when performance might be affected the following day. She also knew from previous work conducted on birds and dolphins that these animals put half of their brains to sleep at a time so tha
39、t they can rest while remaining alert enough to avoid predators (捕食者). This led her to wonder if people might be doing the same thing. To take a closer look, her team studied 35 healthy people as they slept in the unfamiliar environment of the universitys Department of Psychological Sciences. The pa
40、rticipants each slept in the department for two nights and were carefully monitored with techniques that looked at the activity of their brains. Dr. Sasaki found, as expected, the participants slept less well on their first night than they did on their second, taking more than twice as long to fall
41、asleep and sleeping less overall. During deep sleep, the participants brains behaved in a similar manner seen in birds and dolphins. On the first night only, the left hemispheres (半球) of their brains did not sleep nearly as deeply as their right hemispheres did.Curious if the left hemispheres were i
42、ndeed remaining awake to process information detected in the surrounding environment, Dr. Sasaki re-ran the experiment while presenting the sleeping participants with a mix of regularly timed beeps (蜂鸣声 ) of the same tone and irregular beeps of a different tone during the night. She worked out that,
43、 if the left hemisphere was staying alert to keep guard in a strange environment, then it would react to the irregular beeps by stirring people from sleep and would ignore the regularly timed ones. This is precisely what she found.32. What do we learn about Dr. Yuka Sasaki doing her research?A. She
44、found birds and dolphins remain alert while asleep.B. She found birds and dolphins sleep in much the same way.C. She got some idea from previous studies on birds and dolphinsD.
