Sleep repairs the body and the mind and helps prevent disease by strengthening the immune system.However,many adults do not get eight hours of sleep each night.The average sleep time an adult today gets is only 6.4 hours.Only in recent years have health professionals begun to realize the seriousness of sleep deprivation in the working population.A significant number of people work at night,work long hours,or suffer from sleeplessness or jet lag.
Studies show that the brain is negatively affected by sleep deprivation because certain patterns of electrical and chemical activity that occur during sleep are interrupted and the brain cannot function normally.In one study,thirteen healthy adult subjects(实验对象) who usually had normal sleep patterns were kept awake and carefully monitored in a lab during a period of 35 hours.During the experiment,the subjects were asked to perform several tasks,such as mathematics and word
problems,while undergoing scans of their brain activity.The researchers found that the temporal lobe(颞叶) of the brain,the region involved in language processing,was active during speech tasks in rested subjects but not in subjects who lacked enough sleep.After several hours without sleep,there was no activity within this region.
Several studies show that getting fewer than six hours of sleep can damage short-term memory and reaction time—thus causing a serious risk of accident.In one study of drivers,researchers reported that sleep deprivation had the same effects as being drunk.They found that people who drove after being awake for 17 hours performed worse than those with a blood alcohol level of 0.5 percent,the legal limit for drunk
driving in most western European countries.The researchers concluded that countries with drunk driving laws should consider similar restrictions against sleep-deprived driving.

Americans are worried about new technology.They are concerned that
machines,including robots,will take over work now done by humans.These findings come from a new report by the Pew Research Center of Washington D.C.
About 75 percent of Americans questioned by Pew say automation will increase income inequality between the rich and the middle class and the poor.And 64 percent of people expect automation to be so common in America that people will face
difficulty finding things to do with their lives.
Some of the concerns about technology come from a distrust about whether machines will always make the right decision.Many Americans believe humans have better judgment in dealing with complex matters.One example is selecting a person for a job.Three quarters of Americans say they will not want to apply for a job that uses a computer program to choose the most qualified person.
Most Americans want the government to limit automation,for example,87 percent support a requirement that all driverless vehicles have a human in the driver’s seat who can take control when needed.And 85 percent want to limit machines to mostly doing jobs that are dangerous or unhealthy for humans.And only 25 percent expect more jobs to come from automation.
Mark Zuckerberg,the co-founder of Facebook,spoke last May to graduating seniors from Harvard University in Massachusetts.His talk centered on the uncertain future facing young people.“Our generation will have to deal with tens of millions of jobs replaced by automation like self-driving cars and trucks,” Zuck erberg told the graduates.Zuckerberg said young people would have to find projects that would bring both jobs and direct benefits to the people of the world.He said in his speech that 300,000 people worked to put a man on the moon,and millions of people built the Hoover Dam as well as other great projects over the last 100 years.

Last week,two companies,Kitty Hawk and Uber,announced their plans to bring flying cars to reality very soon.
Kitty Hawk president,Sebastian Thrun,announced Kitty Hawk’s flying car plans
last Monday.According to its website,the car is electric-powered and will be able to travel at a speed up to 40 kilometers an hour.It says such a machine “does not require registration or a pilot’s license and may be flown in uncrowded areas for recreational purposes.” As of now,the car can only be flown over fresh wa ter.
Kitty Hawk is making a list of people interested in buying the flying car.They must pay a deposit of $100.Those who get their names on the list early will receive $2,000 off the final cost of the car.However,Kitty Hawk has not yet announced the price.Its first flying cars are expected to go on sale by the end of this year.
Unlike the Kitty Hawk company,Uber does not plan to build its flying cars.Uber expects to launch flying taxis in Dallas-Ft.Worth,Texas,US by 2020.Like the Kitty Hawk car,Uber flying taxis will use electric power.Uber says its flying taxis could travel up to 241 kilometers an hour.The company says that could reduce the travel time between San Francisco and San Jose,California from 2 hours on the road to 15 minutes in the air.
Riders could use the Uber app to book a flying taxi to take them to their destinations.The company has not yet said how costly air taxi travel would be compared to road taxi travel.
Sooner than you think,flying cars may appear in the sky.Much convenience as they will bring,just imagine having to avoid other flying cars.Also,what if your battery dies when you are in the air?And,how will you know where to land?

2019全国卷1高考英语完形填空答案详细解析 【预览部分】 【完形填空答案与详细解析】 【主旨大意】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。本文主要介绍乞力马扎罗山的垃圾污染问题以及当地管理机构努力治理之后环境的改观。本文就游客对乞力马扎罗山自然环境的破坏展开论述，对山体环境进行介绍，意在引起人们对于自然环境的重视。 41. D。考查动词词义辨析。译文：每年有40,000人到非洲最高的山脉乞力马扎罗山（Kilimanjaro）旅游，他们带来了许多废品垃圾。解答此题根本不用费什么心思，读完第一、第二句马上就明白：此题是因果逻辑推断题，即第一句是原因，第41空句是结果。根据前文Every year about 40,000 people attempt to climb Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa.可知每年都有很多人去游览乞力马扎罗山，由此可推测该空是说游客将垃圾废物随身带到了山上。keep with意为“把……与……放一起”；mix with意为“（使）与……混合/结合”；connect with意为“与……连接”；bring sth. with sb. 意为“某人随身带来……”；故只有选项D切题。故选D。 42.C。考查名词词义辨析。译文：拥挤的人群破坏了美丽的乞力马扎罗山。此题仍然属于因果关系推断题。根据上一句Every year about 40,000 people attempt to climb Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa.可知，每年有大约四万人游览乞力马扎罗山，所以此处是指游客所造成的破坏，由此推断出本题答案是crowds（拥挤的人群）。A. stories故事；B. buildings建筑物；C. crowds人群；D. reporters记者。故选C。 【正文】 第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分） 第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Every year about 40,000 people attempt to climb Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa.

2019年高考英语阅读理解专题复习10篇(名师精选真题实战训练+详细解题过程，值得下载练习) [一] As cultural symbols go, the American car is quite young. The Model T Ford was built at the Piquette Plant in Michigan a century ago, with the first rolling off the assembly line(装配线) on September 27,1908.Only eleven cars were produced the next month. But eventually Henry Ford would build fifteen million of them. Modern America was born on the road, behind a wheel. The car shaped some of the most lasting aspects o f American culture: the roadside diner, the billboard, the motel, even the hamburger. For most of the last century, the car represented what it meant to be American—going forward at high speed to find new worlds. The road novel, the road movie, these are the most typical American ideas, born of abundant petrol, cheap cars and a never-ending interstate highway system, the largest public works project in history. pot and In 1928 Herbert Hoover imagined an America with“ a chicken in every a car in every garage.” Since then, this society has moved onward, never looking back, as the car transformed America from a farm-based society into an industrial power. The cars that drove the American Dream have helped to create a global ecological disaster. In America the demand for oil has grown by 22 percent since 1990. The problems of excessive(过度的)energy consumption, climate change and population growth have been described in a book by the American writer Thomas L.Friedman. He fears the worst, but hopes for the best. Friedman points out that the green economy(经济)is a chance to keep American The ability to design, build and export green technologies for producing strength.“ clean water, clean air and healthy and abundant food is going to be the currency of power in the new century.”

So how do countries become landlocked? If you are Swiss or
