18、ey said: “Bicycles provide a literal freedom. You dont allow yourself to feel like that in everyday life because there are so many distractions.

24、 the Earths only constant natural satellite. But could the “lunar effect” disturb sleep?Scientists have long understood that human activity is facilitated by light, be it sunlight, moonlight or artificial light. But a recent study suggests our ability to sleep is distinctly affected by the lunar cyc
25、le, even when taking into account artificial sources of light.Using wrist monitors, researchers tracked sleep patterns in 98 individuals living in three local communities in Argentina over the course of one to two months. One rural community had no electricity access，a second rural community had lim
26、ited access to electricity, while a third community was located in an urban setting and had full access to electricity.Participants in all three communities showed the same pattern of sleep oscillations(波动) as the moon progressed through its 29.5day cycle, with sleep duration changing by between 20
27、and more than 90 minutes, and bedtimes varying by 30 to 80 minutes.In each community, the peak of participants sleeping less and staying up later occurred in the threetofiveday period prior to full moon nights, and the opposite occurred on the nights before the new moon, the authors found.Unsurprisi

29、hers wrote in the journal ScienceAdvances.De la Iglesia added: “We humans tend to believe that we managed to somehow control nature, and the use of artificial light is a great example of that. But it turns out that there are some forces of nature that we cannot get away from.”DerkJan Dijk, a profess
30、or of sleep and physiology and the director of a sleep research centre at the University of Surrey, described the study as exciting but noted that the researchers had not addressed internal influences such as body clocks that could affect sleep patterns.()28.

But this isnt a human cryits the voice of a killer whale called Wikie.New research reveals that orcas(杀人鲸) are able to imitate human speech, saying words
34、such as “hello”， “one, two” and “bye bye”. The study also shows that the creatures are able to copy unfamiliar sounds produced by other orcas.Writing in the journal BiologicalSciences, researchers from institutions in Germany, UK, Spain and Chile, describe how they carried out the latest research wi
35、th Wikie, a 14yearold female orca living in an aquarium(水族馆) in France.After first brushing up Wikies grasp of the “copy” command, she was trained to imitate three familiar orca sounds made by her 3yearold Moana. Wikie was then additionally exposed to five orca sounds she had never heard before, inc
36、luding noises sounding like a creaking(嘎吱响) door. Finally, Wikie was exposed to a human making three of the orca sounds，as well as six human sounds，including “hello”， “Amy”， “ah ha”， “one, two” and “bye bye”The team found that Wikie was often quickly able to copy the sounds, whether from an orca or
37、a human, with all of the novel noises copied within 17 trials. Whats more, two human sounds and all of the humanproduced orca sounds were managed on the first attemptalthough only one human sound “hello” was correctly produced more than 50% of the time on subsequent trials.The creatures are already
38、known for their ability to copy the movements of other orcas, with some reports suggesting they can also copy the sounds of bottlenose dolphins and sea lions after several trials.Scientists say the discovery helps to cast light on how different groups of wild killer whales have ended up with distinc
39、t accents, adding weight to the idea that they are the result of imitation between orcas.()32. What is the authors main purpose in writing the text?A. To analyze orcas speech abilities.B. To highlight the conservation of the orca.C. To inform us of orcas ability to imitate sounds.D. To convince us o

But, once you start construction, the first thing you need to learn is how to measure wood correctly. You cant do any

This was truly great exercise an added benefit of the whole project. Then came the complicated part of putting it all together. It took me two years to have a complete house I could live in. I know that doing something like this is not for everyone. It takes significant effort, years of hard work, and focus to keep going even when youre frustrated. But, like many things in life, the hardest path is the most worthwhile.
