【题目】 Two in three Americans shower once a day or more, according to a YouGov poll. Here’s why you might be better off showering less frequently (and here are other ways you might be showering wrong
①Daily showers are best for people with physically demanding jobs, those who live in hot, damp climates. But if you don’t sweat that often, you could probably go two to three days without stepping into the shower, skin doctor Monika G. Kiripolsky, MD, told Men's Health. Use these quick morning hacks to freshen up without showering.
② Drying off with a towel can further make your delicate birthday suit become worse. It’s best to air dry, according to HowStuffWorks.com, but if that takes too long or you don’t like leaving wet foot prints all over the house, use a soft towel and gently pat your skin dry instead of vigorously rubbing it. Check out these other mistakes everyone makes in the shower.
③ If the thought of showering every other day or a few times a week makes your skin crawl, consider a mini cleaning. Rub your chest, armpits, and outer sex organs with a washcloth and a mild cleaner, Men's Health advises.
④ Right now, your skin is teeming with good bacteria, but showering launches these microbes into the air. They’ll repopulate, but there’s no good reason to get rid of them on a daily basis, according to this blog post on PLOS.org. Find out what the healthiest temperature for your shower is.
⑤ Showers are typically the third largest water consumer in the average home (after toilets and clothes washers). The average American shower uses 17.2 gallons and lasts for 8.2 minutes at average flow rate of 2.1 gallons per minute, according to Home Water Works, part of the Alliance for Water Efficiency. Cut back to three or four showers a week from seven (per person in your home!) and that could make a decent cut in your water bill. To make those four showers count, learn what science says is the best time of day to shower.
【1】What’s the whole passage mainly about?
A.Reasons you can probably get away with showering less.
B.Advice you can take on how to shower more and better.
C.Harmful effects made on you through showering less.
D.Benefits you can get from showering on a daily basis.
【2】This passage provides us with the following further detailed information Except___________.
A.the best time of day to showerB.the proper temperature for your shower
C.the other ways you shower wrongD.the other ways to cut your water bill
【3】Which of the following is Not a reason why you should shower less?
A.Showering gets rid of good bacteria.
B.You're absolutely as dirty as you think.
C.Towel drying causes damage to your skin.
D.You only really need to wash your smelly parts.

【题目】A Brief History Of Waterstone’s
Waterstone’s is the largest bookstore chain in the UK and Ireland, with 296 stores and 4500 employees, but its market share has recently declined and sales have been poor. The book market suffered during the economy declines and the emergence of new e-readers, such as the Amazon Kindle, was pulling more customers away from the high street. A&NN will pay for Waterstone’s in two parts, one of 40million and one of 13million.The deal will only complete if HMV can renegotiate its bank facilities, though HMV says the banks are supportive of the sale. Pension trustees and the pensions regulator also have to approve. HMV chief executive Simon Fox said A&NN would be a good home for Waterstone’s, while the sale will reduce borrowings and enable HMV to focus on plans for transforming the business into a broad-based entertainment business. A&NN will appoint James Daunt as managing director of Waterstone’s once the deal completes. Mr. Daunt currently runs Daunt Books, a small chain of London-based bookshops he founded in 1990. | |
Waterstone’s founder Tim Waterstone opened his first store in 1982 at a time when fellow book-lovers were presented with few options on the high street. The top bookseller was WH Smith, Mr. Waterstone’s former employer of eight years before he was dismissed, which he felt was failing to go into a broad market of literature fans. The first store was opened in Old Brompton Road, and the former banker’s intuition was correct as the chain went from strength to strength. Mr. Waterstone, who has written four novels, saw a recovery in the market driven by demand for the works of a new wave of literary stars including Salman Rushdie, Ian McEwan, John Banville and Martin Amis. Having founded the firm with his 6,000, Mr. Waterstone sold the chain to his former employer WH Smith in 1993 for 47million. |
【1】According to the passage, who is the most likely to be the managing director of Waterstone’s in the near future?
A.Mr. WaterstoneB.John Banville
C.James DauntD.Simon Fox
【2】What does the word “intuition” mean in the passage?
A.instinctive knowledgeB.mental image
C.calm considerationD.indirect suggestion
【3】Which one of the following is not true according to the passage?
A.At present the brand Waterstone’s belongs to HMV.
B.During the economy declines, the book market was hit and sales were poor.
C.Waterstone’s has long been the largest bookstore chain in the U.K and Ireland.
D.Mr. Waterstone made 41,000 when he transferred the chain to WH Smith.
