26、   For Shaholly Ayers, who was born without a right arm, “no” is something she’s used to hearing. As a child, her teachers told her she wouldn’t be able to participate in a gym class. As a teenager, coaches told her she wouldn’t make the basketball team. And then in college, as she dreamed of becoming a fashion model, an agency (代理机构) she approached said, “It just wouldn’t work.” That day, about 10 years ago, Ayers decided to take action. She decided to realize her dream without an agent.

“I was so new, and I was so green,” she said. “I didn’t have a portfolio or anything. I had to start at the very beginning. I worked with photographers and makeup artists to build my portfolio first, and then I started going to local fashion shops and telling them I’d model for them for free. It worked.”

Ayers has since participated in six seasons of New York Fashion Week, mostly recently walking the runway for Art Hearts Fashion’s shows last month. She has also modeled for Nordstrom, which has nearly 400 chain stores in the USA.

Ayers has a job in digital marketing that she loves, but she hopes to one day be a full-time model. Ayers also hopes to help others find their dream careers as a brand ambassador for Global Disability Inclusion, a consulting company that helps companies attract and hire people with disabilities.

“She shows all we represent,” a manager for the firm said. “She shows to the world that a person with a disability is confident, qualified and, yes, beautiful to be a world-class model.”

Ayers, who asked TODAY Style not to give away her age, as it’s yet another hurdle she has to face in the modeling world, has come a long way from being a little girl in Oregon, where she grew up.

【1】What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A.Shaholly Ayers lost her right arm in a traffic accident.

B.Shaholly Ayers gave up her dream to become a model.

C.Her teacher encouraged Ayers to participate in a gym class.

D.Shaholly Ayers was often refused because of her disability.

【2】What can we infer about Shaholly Ayers?

A.She is now a part-time model. B.She isn’t fond of her present job.

C.She has set up a consulting company. D.She wishes to become an ambassador.

【3】What does the underlined word “hurdle” mean in the last paragraph?

A.condition B.difficulty C.luck D.puzzle

【4】Which of the following words can best describe Shaholly Ayers?

28、Are You a Morning Person?

Mornings are not for everyone. Knowing that our own bodies may be wired to prefer a certain time of day is certainly a relief. But many of us still have to wake up and function during those first daylight hours. So what can you do?

We tapped a variety of experts – from sleep experts to nutritionists to life organizational pros—to share their tricks on how to make morning less stressful and more pleasant(for) even the most after-hours of night owls.

1. Night waking

Poor sleep quality can explain why we sometimes wake up from eight hours of snoozing and feel like we only clocked in at four. “It’s normal to have one or two awakenings, but more than that leaves us feeling groggy in the morning because of the fragmented sleep,” [explains Shelby Harris, director of the behavioral sleep medicine program at Montefiore Medical Center.]

2. The Science of snoozing

The snooze button does more harm than good. Nodding off again sends you into a light and fragmented sleep! Multiple snoozes can leave you feeling groggier than just getting out of bed the first time.

Instead, be honest about the time you intend to get up and then enjoy every last minute of shuteye, so you can wake up alert and ready to go.

3. Don’t ease into your workday

It can be tempting to plow through the easy things early on-checking e-mail, scanning the headlines—but it’s wise to tackle the bigger stuff first. “Getting to work on the most important tasks not only ups the chances that they actually get done, but it also leaves you with a burst of accomplishment to take with you the rest of the day,” says Jason Selk, coauthor of Organize Tomorrow Today.

4. Save social media for later

Schedule a social media block later in the afternoon to check in when you’re likely to need a break anyway, and save the morning for the important stuff.

Specialized Term

life organizational pro(n)生活管理达人 someone who is an expert at helping others bring balance and order into their lives

Vocabulary Focus

tap(v) [tæp] to get or make use of something

groggy (adj) [‘gragi] weak and unable to think clearly or walk correctly, usually because of tiredness or illness

shuteye (n) [‘ʃʌtai] sleep

plow through (something) (phr v) to finish reading, eating or dealing with something with difficulty

【1】What’s the purpose of the passage?

A.To inform us about the fact that our bodies are wired to prefer a certain time of day.

B.To relieve us from the guilt of multiple snoozes in the morning.

C.To help us to get the most out of our mornings.

D.To warn us of the harm of not getting out of bed immediately.

【2】Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A.One or two awakenings ensure us a good night’s sleep.

B.To be an early bird, better forget about the snooze button.

C.Beginning a day with easy things aroused our interest and a sense of accomplishment.

D.It’s important not to block social medium if you want to save your morning.

【3】Where can we find the passage?

A.Health Section B.Travel Brochure

C.Life and Study D.Scientific Journal

29、   If you cannot afford to travel in any class above economy, flying generally sucks, either a little or a lot, depending on your tolerance level. But it especially sucks if you are too wide for the airline’s design.

Just getting to your seat can be a challenge, as your hips(臀部,髋) bounce from seat to seat on each side of the aisle(过道). If someone is standing up to put things in the overhead locker, there is a decision to be made about whether it’s worth trying to squeeze past. Everything is just slightly too small: the seats, the overhead lockers, even the bathrooms – and those, it seems, are getting even smaller.

The Washington Post recently reported that, on some newer planes flown by American, Delta and United airlines, the bathrooms in economy class are just 61cm wide: about 25cm narrower than the average portable toilet, and roughly the width of the average dishwasher. Your face might be the only thing you can poke in there comfortably – which makes it a poor design, considering what a passenger is likely to need the bathroom for.

According to the manufacturer, these “Advanced Spacewell” bathrooms make space for six additional passengers, which is great for the airlines’ financial bottom line. But what about the other bottom line? Concerning, well, bottoms that can’t fit into their planes’ bathrooms?

As bodies get bigger and aeroplane spaces get smaller, the wide among us have come up with solutions. Armrests that turn us into sausages(香肠) can be pulled up, or slowly encased(围住,包起) into the soft flesh of our sides until we go numb(麻木). We can ask the flight attendant to get us a seat-belt extender, if security has confiscated the one we brought with us, as can sometimes happen. But squeezing into a tiny toilet and closing the door behind us? Not workable.

Unlike the impossible task of squeezing down the aisle to your seat, or the side-to-side dance necessary to get big hips past the armrests, fitting into a space just 61cm wide is not just a challenge – it is almost impossible. It is not like missing out on an option for the in-flight meal – a bathroom is as essential as a safety-compliant seat belt, or the air that is pumped in to the cabin(飞机舱). If airlines are not willing to make space for us, bigger passengers may have no option but to reconsider booking a flight at all.

【1】What is the advantage of the new toilets?

A.More passengers can use them. B.The airlines can increase their profits.

C.They are more comfortable. D.They are practical and convenient.

【2】What does the underlined word ‘confiscated’ mean?

A.provided B.questioned C.checked D.taken

【3】What does the fifth paragraph mainly tell us?

A.Fat people can deal with many problems they face on planes.

B.Flight attendants are likely to be helpful when asked for assistance.

C.Flying is pleasant for overweight people at present.

D.People’s bodies are getting bigger year by year.

【4】The writer believes that bigger passengers _____.

A.will have to find more creative solutions in the future

B.should grasp the chance to lose weight before flying

C.should miss out on the option for the in-flight meal

D.might be unable to travel by air in the future
