23、

We touch our faces all the time, and it had never seemed to be a big problem–until COVID-19 arrived. Touching our faces–the "T-zone" of our eyes, nose and mouth in particular–can mean giving ourselves the deadly virus.

This is why organizations like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have suggested that we avoid touching our faces. "Just stop this simple behavior," William Sawyer, founder of Henry the Hand, a nonprofit organization that promotes hand hygiene (卫生), told The Washington Post. "It's the one behavior that would be better than any vaccine ever created."

Yet, stopping this "simple" behavior might be harder than you think because it's already into our system.

Some face touching is an automatic reflex (反射) – like when there is an itch on your nose, you'll scratch (挠) it without thinking. According to CNBC, a 2014 study found that touching your face also helps to reduce stress and regulate emotions. For example, you're more likely to do it when you feel awkward or embarrassed. According to Dacher Keltner, a psychologist at the University of California Berkeley, US, this action may also come with a social function: When you are talking to someone and want to change the subject, for example, touching your face is like "the curtains on a stage, closing up one act of the social drama, leading to the next," Keltner told the BBC.

Moreover, face-touching in almost all of these is subconscious, which means it's very hard to change "because you don't even know you're doing it", said Sawyer. But you're not alone. In a 2015 study, where a group of medical students were filmed in class, it was found that they touched their faces an average of 23 times an hour–with 44 percent of the touches being in the"T-zones". That was particularly surprising since medical students were supposed to know better.

Since it's so hard to shake the habit, maybe the easiest way is to wash our hands more often. This way, we can be sure that our hands are free from the novel coronavirus.

Tips for keeping your hands away

Tie up your hair so your face won't be tickled (使发痒) by stray strands (松散的发缕).

Keep your hands occupied, eg. with a stress ball.

Ask a friend to keep an eye on your hands.

【1】It's hard to stop touching faces because people ________.

A．don't take it seriously

B．do it without awareness

C．are born with the behavior

D．feel happier while doing it

【2】What does the underlined word "subconscious" mean?

A．Obvious.

B．Natural.

C．Strange.

D．Impolite.

【3】Which of the following is a social function of touching faces, according to the text?

A．Bringing a conversation to an end.

B．Making others feel relaxed while talking.

C．Showing an interest in the ongoing subject.

D．Using it as a sign to change the topic.

【4】What is the author's purpose in mentioning a 2015 study on a group of medical students?

A．To give tips on how to stop touching faces.

B．To prove that it is common for people to touch their faces.

C．To show how hygiene awareness helps people avoid touching their faces.

D．To show it is impossible to shake the habit of touching your face.

24、In 1638, John Harvard donated some money and about four hundred books to a new university. This was the beginning of the library at Harvard University. The gift was so important that the university was named for John Harvard.

Thomas Bray began the first free lending library in the late 1600s. He set up more than 30 or these libraries in the American colonies. However, the idea for this kind of free library ended when Bray died in 1730. In 1731, Benjamin Franklin and some friends started the first subscription（订阅费） library in the United States. In a subscription library people pay money to become members, but they mayborrowthe books without paying again.

In the United States, every child had a free education. This idea soon led to free libraries. One of the first libraries that used tax money to buy books was a library in Peterborough, New Hampshire. This library was set up in 1833.
