Everyone, without doubt, goes through changes in their life, whether it is a physical state of aging or a mental state of emotional maturity. However, some are afraid to make the conscious decision to move or they think its too late
24、to have a fresh start.I have a friend named Jack. At the age of 37, he is a Senior Manager at one of the Big Four.

25、gured out. Yet when I once asked if he was happy with his work, he answered that he some- times wished to quit his job to do something less stressful.

26、h, so whether he cant abide his present job or not, he has to choose to suck it up. You might have come to a similar situation as Jacks or you might be a Jack. Youre now facing a wall.

27、ear down that wall or continue to let it enclose you. I suggest pushing back the boundaries and breaking the fixed patterns. Why do you feel its too late to start over?

32、o people commonly think the microplastic to be something like a grain of rice or a sesame seed. Actually, most of the microplastics that people are interacting with are quite a bit smaller than the sesame seed size, so it always shocks people when they know about the number of microplastics because
33、they can hardly see a lot of these things, at least with the naked eye.Kieran Cox, a PhD candidate in marine（海洋的）biology at the University of Victoria，is one of the authors of the study, which is in the journal Environmental Science &. Technology. For their study, Cox and his team pulled together pa
34、st scientific literature that calculated the number of microplastics in things we commonly consume, such as in tap and bottled water, sugars, seafoodeven in the air that we breathe. This analysis helped them figure out the baseline amount of microplastics that people are consuming every year. They c
35、ouldnt include common foods like beef, vegetables and dairy in their analysis because the data on them doesnt exist yet. In fact, their study could account for only l5 percent of peoples caloric in-take. Even missing the majority of what people swallow, the research revealed thatat the very leasthum
36、ans appear to consume somewhere between 74,000 and 121,000 microplastics every year. That number goes up for people drinking bottled water rather than tap water.Now, is all the plastic safe to take in? Scientists dont know yet. This is like the first estimate of the dose which means an amount of a m
37、edicine that is taken once. So the amount is a very important factor to think about, but it is very difficult to estimate because it is what we dont know.32. What do we know about the microplastic?A. Its much bigger than a grain of rice. B. Its barely seen without an instrument.C. It can be a kind o
38、f fish feed D. Its harmless to humans. 33. What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. The study of microplastics people consume.B. The analysis of past scientific literature.C. The amount of microplastics in food. D. The study of marine biology.34. Which aspect should scientists focus on in furthe
39、r study according to the text?A. Making plastics safe.B. The things people swallow.C. The amount of bottled water.D. Finding the safe dose of microplastics.35. What can we learn about the study?A. It was about a new material. B. It was published in a journal.C. Kieran Cox didnt finish it. D. Scienti

59、all window display offering various forgettable items that are of no interest to me. But I have some extra time today and decide to take a quick look.The interior (里面) of the shop is cool and dark，and it takes a moment for my eyes to adjust.

60、rly enough to turn me away. In spite of this, I continue further into the store, eyes scanning the shelves for anything interesting.

61、I wonder when she last saw a customer enter her shop.“Just looking casually,” I reply.I make a full circle of the place and there is indeed nothing here I wish to purchase. I wonder how the old woman manages to stay in business. I head towards the door, but pause when I notice a large old book on a
