My husband tells me that I am not a patient woman. And he is right. There is one area,
however,where I have been the defender of patience and perseverance:motherhood.
For more than 25 years I have raised two kids wiping bottoms chasing and cajoling
(哄);combed and washed; with bedtime stories, and never questioned the timeline. Those
little milk suckers have taken more than their daily amount of my existing patience and willpower.
Don't be fooled—babies suck out more than breast milk.Even before they emerge,they steal from
your very boneswhich my osteopathcan confirm. I have painstakingly brought
them up and the last has just flown the nest proudly this month off to university in the big
smoke,just like his sister.
It seems amazing that human beings are the only animal to take 18 years or more to fledge
长羽. Think of the caterpillar that hatches and grows into a butterfly all on its own. Or the
baby horse that comes out and starts walking straight away. But the human baby sucks the life out
of you for nearly two decades. "Creating and raising another human being",as my father would
say,"could mean the difference between freeing a killer or a lifesaver into the world".
But mothers and fathers,make sure your existence does not rise and fall with their every
breath. When they excitedly walk out the door,you will need something to fill the blank.
There is no school run or bedtimes. The only problem is that now you want to go to bed at
the same time that your kids used to. My husband and I look at each other at 8 p. m. and our dry
eyes say sleepy ——time admittedly to go up to bed and watch an hour of TV or more. If I had
had learned anything in all my years of motherhood,it would be more efficient with my spare
time;now I am to be even more efficient with the time I have left.
4.Which word can best describe the author's tone in paragraph 2?
A.Humorous. B.Grateful. C.Regretful. D.Anxious.
5.What do the words by the author's father stress?
A. Children are born kind. B.Children should grow freely.
C.Parenting is socially meaningful. D.A killer is different from a lifesaver.
6.Why do the couple go to bed at 8 p.m.as before?
A.Their kids tell them to. B.They are tired and sleepy.
C.They miss their kids so much. D.They lack hobby to pass time.
7.What is the text mainly about?
A.Joys and sorrows from raising kids.
B.Marriage and constant understanding.
C.Loss and hesitation after kids flying the nest.
D. Motherhood challenges and the following wound.

"The Manuscript Writing Cafe only allows in people who have a writing deadline to
face!”owner TakuyaKawai tweeted.“It’s in order to maintain a level of focus and tense atmosphere
at the cafe!Thank you for your understanding.
The cafe charges customers by time used(it operates at a rate of 150 yen or $1.32 per 30
minutes),and is equipped with USB ports,computer stands,and free Wi-Fi. Struggling writers can
also bring their own food and drinks, or have it delivered there since coffee and water are the only
things available,but it's pretty strict when it comes to the actual writing.
Although the Manuscript Writing Cafe actually accepts a wide range of writers,from
translators and copywriters to novelists and proofreaders,the rules are the same for everyone.
When entering the cafe,customers must write down at the reception desk how many words they
plan to write and by what time they plan to finish. Every hour, a member of the staff will come by
to check on their progress and apply a predetermined pressure level to help move things along. For
example,choosing the“S”course will have the cafe staff more militantly pushing you to get the
work done,while the"M"course involves a milder approach.
However,the craziest rule of the Manuscript Writing Cafe is that writers are not allowed to
end their session until reaching their declared goal or until the place closes down for the
day,whichever comes first. It's not clear how the cafe carries out this rule, but it is meant to keep
customers from declaring ambitious targets that they won't be able to meet.
While some found it interesting,others said that it was too much pressure.“If it were me, I
would no longer be able to leave the store and would end up having to live there," one person
commented.
8.What's the purpose of opening the Manuscript Writing Cafe?
A.To push people to finish writing on time.
B.To provide a shelter for struggling writers.
C.To keep writers from writing themselves out.
D.To make people understand a business concept. 9.What can we learn about the rules of the cafe?
A.The cafe serves food and coffee.
B.The customers are totally left alone.
C.The cafe is paid by time spent there.
D.No plan is required of those with light task.
10.What does the underlined word"militantly"mean in paragraph 3?
A.Elegantly. B.Patiently. C.Secretly. D.Forcefully.
11.How does the cafe prevent customers making impractical plan?
A.They will be spotted and driven out.
B.They can't leave until reaching their goal.
C.They are locked in the cafe with no supply.
D.They will be double fined for failing the goal.
D
Researchers at the University of California,Santa Barbara have designed a one-foot device
