31、ture at university, I thought it was time to build my own library. For the next 40 years, I continued to collect books. Until one day, I realized that all my books had become a part of the house, like wallpaper.Toward the end of my teaching career, I became a teacher-librarian at my old high school,
32、 where I had first learned English literature. This position resumed (恢复) my love and appreciation for libraries.

38、nic food, grown without artificial chemicals, is increasingly popular nowadays. Consumers have been willing to pay up to twice more for goods with organic labels (商标). However, if you think paying a little more for organic food gets you a more nutritious and safer product, you might want to save you
39、r money. A study led by researchers at Stanford University says that organic products arent necessarily more nutritious, and theyre no less likely to suffer from disease-causing bacteria, either.The latest results, published in the Annuals of Internal Medicine, suggest that buyers may be wasting the
40、ir money. We did not find strong evidence that organic food is more nutritious or healthier, says Dr. Crystal Smith-Spangler from Stanford. So consumers shouldnt assume that one type of food has a lower risk or is safer.For their new study, Smith-Spangler and her colleagues conducted a review of two
41、 categories of research, including 17 studies that compared health outcomes between consumers of organic against traditional food products, and 223 studies that analyzed the nutritional content of the foods, including key vitamins, minerals and fats.While the researchers found little difference in n
42、utritional content, they did find that organic fruit and vegetables were 20% less likely to have chemicals remaining on the surfaces. Neither organic nor traditional foods showed levels of chemicals high enough to go beyond food safety standards. And both organic and traditional meats, such as chick
43、en and pork, were equally likely to be harmed by bacteria at very low rates. The researchers did find that organic milk and chicken contained higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, a healthy fat also found in fish that can reduce the risk of heart disease. However, these nutritional differences were
44、too small, and the researchers were unwilling to make much of them until further studies confirm the trends.Organic food is produced with fewer chemicals and more natural-growing practices, but that doesnt always translate into a more nutritious or healthier product. The U. S. Department of Agricult
45、ure (USDA) states that whether you buy organic or not, finding the freshest foods available may have the biggest effect on taste. Fresh food is at least as good as anything marketed as organic.12. The new research questions whether organic food _.A. should replace traditional foodB. has been overpri
46、ced by farmersC. is grown with less harmful chemicalsD. is really more nutritious and healthier13. Smith-Spangler and her colleagues found that _.A. organic food could reduce the risk of heart diseaseB. traditional food was grown with more natural methodsC. both organic and traditional food they exa

49、rather than texts you? _16_ Dont these people realize that theyre wasting your time?Maybe Im the rude one for not appreciating lifes little courtesies (礼节). But many social norms (规范) just dont make sense to people drowning in digital communication.Take the thank-you note. Daniel Post Senning, a coa
50、uthor of Emily Posts Etiquette, asked, “At what point does showing appreciation outweigh the cost?”_17_ Think of how long it takes to listen to one of those messages. In texts, you dont have to declare who you are or even say hello. E-mail, too, is slower than a text. The worst are those who leave a
51、 voice mail and then send an e-mail message to tell you they left a voice mail.This isnt the first time technology has changed our manners. _18_ Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor, suggested that people say, “Ahoy!” Finally, hello won out, and the victory sped up the greetings use in face-to-face c
52、ommunications.In the age of the smart phone, there is no reason to ask once-acceptable questions about: the weather forecast, a businesss phone number, or directions to a house, a restaurant, or an office, which can be easily found on a digital map. But people still ask these things. _19_How to hand
53、le these differing standards? Easy: Consider your audience. Some people, especially older ones, appreciate a thank-you message. _20_ In traditional societies, the young learn from the old.
