Fortunately, thereare plenty of solutions you can try. With a few changes, you can fall asleep fast every night!Keep your room dark. Turn off all the lights above your head when you go to bed. Any bright light can make you believe it is too early in the day for sleep. If you want to read or write before bed, try using a small book light. Now that blue lights can keep you awake, red ones are a great choice.If you can, keep noise in and around your room the lowest at night. If you have an old clock that ticks loudly and keeps you awake, replace it with a silent one. If you share your home with anyone else, request that they keep noises like talking, music, or TV shows at the lowest while you are trying to sleep. It is difficult to fall asleep if you live near a busy road or hear other boring sounds after bedtime. You could get a white noise machine or play recordings of nature sounds, like waves or whales’ singing. You could also listen to soft, relaxing music.Read a book in bed if you have difficulty in falling asleep. Staying in bed doing nothing when you’re having trouble falling asleep may keep you wide awake. While reading in bed may be slightly harmful to your eyes, it can distract (分散) you from your thoughts and help you feel sleepy. But remember to read from a print book rather than something with a screen. The light from electronic screens can keep you awake.Lowering your body temperature helps you sleep, so set the room temperature between 15.5★-21★could do the trick.4.

By asking questions.C. By offering suggestions.D. By listing research results.CA maverick describes a person who thinks independently. A maverick refuses to follow the customs or rules of a group to which he or she belongs. In the US, a maverick is often admired for his or her free spirit, although others who belong to the maverick’s group may not like the maverick’s independent ways.But where did the word “maverick” come from?Early in the 1800s, a man named Samuel Augustus Maverick settled down in Texas, which was a place of wide-open land, rich soil, cattle ranches(牛场) and cowboys. As the years passed, Mr. Maverick increased his property(财产) in Texas. Before long, he owned huge pieces of land that were good for raising cattle. But he had no cattle. He wasn’t a rancher.One day, a man came to Samuel Maverick to pay him an old debt. But the man didn’t have enough money. So he offered Mr. Maverick 400 head of cattle. Mr. Maverick accepted them, but he didn’t really want them. He simply put the cattle on his land to eat and care for themselves.It was not long before the cows reproduced(繁殖). The calves grew and had more calves. Soon, hundreds of cows and calves moved freely across Samuel Maverick’s land. They also moved across the land of nearby ranch owners.It was a tradition among ranchers in the West to put a mark of ownership on newborn calves. They burned the name of their ranch into the animal’s skin with a hot iron. The iron made a clear mark called a “brand”. Brands allowed ranchers to easily see who owned which cattle.Samuel Maverick refused to brand his calves. “Why should I?” he asked. If all the other cattle owners branded theirs, then those without a brand belonged to him.And this is how the word “maverick” entered the American language. It meant a calf without a brand. As time passed, the word “maverick” took on a wider meaning. It came to mean a person who was too independent to follow even his or her own group.8. Why did the man give Samuel Maverick 400 head of cattle?A. To get some money.B. To return what he owed him.C. To buy some of his land.D. To ask him to raise them.9. How could the ranchers easily know who the cattle belonged to?A. Through the brand on the cattle.B. Through the name of the cattle.C. Through the appearance of the cattle.D. Through the land on which the cattle stayed.10. What can we learn about Samuel Augustus Maverick from the text?A. He was born in Texas.B. He took good care of all his cattle.C. He didn’t really want to accept the cattle.D. He followed the tradition of ranchers in the West.11. What is the text mainly about?A. How to become an independent thinker.B. “Maverick” means a calf without a brand.C. The life story of Samuel Augustus Maverick.D. How the word “maverick” got into American English.DFor years, Zach Ault, a father of three, enjoyed being physically active. He was even training for a half-marathon. But in 2017, he took time off to recover from an infection. After recovering, he tried to continue his runs but could not complete them. He was not able to spend time with his children. He had to cut back his job. Even sleeping as much as 16 hours a day made no difference in his condition.“His body had literally hijacked him and it wasn't going to allow him to push through, ” said Anne Ault, his wife. After months of testing, doctors announced their result-chronic fatigue syndrome, a disease that makes an individual feel extremely tired.This fatigue lasts more than six months and becomes worse after any kind of physical exertion (费力活动). Patients may have difficulty standing upright. They also may have trouble thinking, often described as a “brain fog”. There are no approvedtreatments, or even tests to help with diagnosis. There is no way to predict who will recover and who will have a severe case that lasts for years.Now the doctors at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are conducting a unique study to learn more about the condition. Zach Ault is one of the subjects in the study. When Ault rides an exercise bicycle, scientists measure how his leg muscles use oxygen. Afterward, doctors fit a special cap on Ault's head to measure electrical activity in his brain. They then send him to spend the night in an air-tight room where air has been removed with pipe for additional study. Scientists measure oxygen and carbon dioxide levels to tell how much energy Ault is using, minute by minute. “We're figuring out how his body adjusts to an exercise load, or a stress load.”“It's hard not knowing if or when I'm going to recover, ” he said. But Ault says the study did help him learn about the disease. And it gave him ideas about how to save up his energy.12. What was Zach Ault's life like before 2017?A. He was fond of exercising.B. He won several half-marathons.C. He spent much time lying in bed.D. He was busy looking after his children.13. How did the infection affect Zach Ault?A. He lost his job.B. He was unable to sleep.C. He became too weak to do sports.D. He was tired of running a half-marathon.14. What can we learn about chronic fatigue syndrome?A. It usually lasts no more than months.B. It is likely to cause thinking disorders.C. Patients with it need to stay in bed all day long.D. Patients with it should avoid any kind of exercise.15. What does Zach Ault think of the study?A. It helped him cure his illness.B. It helped him recover and stay fit.C. It taught him how to enjoy cycling.D. It brought him new ideas about fighting diseases.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AOur oldest daughter is having trouble letting go of an old red sofa.It's not the sofa she's having trouble letting go of as much as the memories.It was their first sofa.It has been loaded and unloaded onto moving trucks seven times.Three kids have eaten on it,dripped on it,and jumped on it.Yet she's having a hard time letting go and asked if I thought that was strange.“Completely," I said.“You get it from me.”When we were ready to get rid of our baby things,I sold our crib (婴儿床)at the neighborhood garage sale.I had pieces of it in the garage and the other pieces of it still in the house.A young woman said she wanted to buy it.My throat tightened and the tears began to well.She pulled out cash and I cheered up.But by the time I returned with the other pieces to the crib,I was all sobbing.“Have you considered that maybe you're not ready to sel l it?” the woman asked.“No-o—o—o," I cried.“It’s fine,really,” I said.“Take it.”Our attachment to stuff grows in direct relationship to the amount of time it has sat in one place.The longer it sits,the harder it is to get rid of it.You think: “He y,we've hung onto it this long – it must be valuable!” As though yellowing and a layer of dust increase value.People who find it extremely hard to part with things have been made into entertainment in a television show called Hoarders.If an episode (集)of that isn’t depressing enough for you,producers now offer Extreme Hoarders.Both of which are not to be outdone by Storage Wars,a show about aggressive people who bid on other people’s storage units.Let the sofa go,I told my daughter.It served its purpose.You can get a new one.Give the kids some crackers (饼干)and juice and it will be like the old one in six weeks.1.What does the author mean by saying the underlined sentence “You get it from me”?A.“You can get another sofa from me."B.“You can get mental support from me.”C.“You behave just the same way I do.”D.“You are asking the right person to help you.”2.When the writer was selling the crib,_____.A.she felt relieved that there was someone willing to buy itB.she showed a strong attachment to the old itemC.she couldn’t decide whether or not to sell it in the endD.she changed her mind in hopes of keeping it and increasing its value3.The writer refers to the television shows to _____.A.prove that it’s depressing to get attac hed to old stuffB.explain what contributes to people’s attachment to old stuffC.show that people in TV shows live the same lives as ordinary people doD.prove that it’s actually common for people to find it hard to get rid of old stuff 4.Which opinion might the writer agree with according to the article?A.If you give away old stuff regularly,you are wasteful.B.If the old stuff has done what it was supposed to,then let it go.C.Nothing is more valuable than your love for your old stuff.D.The older your stuff is,the less trouble you have getting rid of it.2.BGeorge Gershwin,born in 1898,was one of America's greatest composers.He published his first song when he was eighteen years old.During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs.Many of Gershwin’s songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City.These plays were a popular form of entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s.Many of his songs have remained popular as ever.Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way-from jazz to country.In the 1920s there was a debate in the United States about jazz music.Could jazz,some people asked,be considered serious music? In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious music.Gershwin agreed to compose something for the concert before he realized he had just a few weeks to do it.And in that short time,he composed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue.Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert.The audience were thrilled when they heard his music.It made him world—famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular.In 1928,Gershwin went to Paris.He applied to study composition(作曲)with the well—known musician Nadia Boulanger,but she rejected him.She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz-influenced style.While there,Gershwin wrote An American in Paris.When itwas first performed,critics(评论家)were divided over the music.Some called it happy and full of life,to others it was silly and boring.But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States.It still remains one of his most famous works.George Gershwin died in 1937,just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer.He was only thirty-nine years old.Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages.People mourned the loss of the man and all the music he might have still written.1.Many of Gershwin’s musical works were.A.written about New YorkersB.composed for Paul WhitemanC.played mainly in the countrysideD.performed in various ways2.What did Gershwin do during his stay in Paris?A.He created one of his best works.B.He studied with Nadia Boulanger.C.He argued with French critics.D.He changed his music style.3.What do we learn from the last paragraph?A.Many of Gershwin’s works were lost.B.The death of Gershwin was widely reported.C.A concert was held in memory of Gershwin.D.Brain cancer research started after Gershwin's death.4.Which of the following best describes Gershwin?A.Talented and productive.B.Serious and boring.C.Popular and unhappy.D.Friendly and honest.3.CGuide to Stockholm University LibraryOur library offers different types of studying places and provides a good studying environment.ZonesThe library is divided into different zones.The upper floor is a quiet zone with over a thousand places for silent reading,and places where you can sit and work with your own computer.The reading places consist mostly of tables and chairs.The ground floor is the zonewhere you can talk.Here you can find sofas and armchairs for group work.ComputersYou can use your own computer to connect to the wi-fi specially prepared for notebook computers;you can also use library computers,which contain the most commonly used applications,such as Microsoft Office.They are situated in the area known as the Experimental Field on the ground floor.Group—study PlacesIf you want to discuss freely without disturbing others,you can book a study room or sit at a table on the ground floor.Some study rooms are for 2-3 people and others can hold up to 6-8 people.All rooms are marked on the library maps.There are 40 group-study rooms that must be booked via the website.To book,you need an active University account and a valid University card.You can use a room three hours per day,nine hours at most per week.Storage of Study MaterialThe library has lockers for students to store course literature.When you have obtained at least 40 credits,you may rent a locker and pay 400 SEK for a year's rental period.Rules to be FollowedMobile phone conversations are not permitted anywhere in the library.Keep your phone on silent as if you were in a lecture and exit the library if you need to receive calls.Please note that food and fruit are forbidden in the library,but you are allowed to have drinks and sweets with you.1.Library computers on the ground floor.A.help students with their field experimentsB.contain software essential for schoolworkC.are for those who want to access the wi—fiD.are mostly used for filling out application forms2.A student can rent a locker in the library if he.A.can afford the rental feeB.attends certain coursesC.has nowhere to put his booksD.has earned the required credits3.What should NOT be brought into the library?A.Mobile phones.B.Orange juice.C.Candy.D.Sandwiches.4。

(共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分)AIn America, Virginia Beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resort: brilliant beaches, a lively boardwalk, plenty of restaurants and nightspots, and amusement rides sure to appeal to kids. Many believe Virginia Beach is at its best in the offseason, when the town is less crowded but the weather is still mild.Meanwhile, some safety tips should be followed, enjoying the happiness and excitement the beach offers.The number 1 safety tip concerns ocean safety: pay attention to Flag conditions posted on the lifeguard stands. Lifeguards post a red flag to warn when the ocean water is dangerous. Take them seriously! Tourists fr om landlocked regions are particularly easily attracted by the magic of the waves. However, a calm ocean can become risky without warning. Make sure you swim near a lifeguard. Swimming without lifeguard protection is almost five times as great as drowning at a beach with lifeguards.Never swim alone. Many drownings involve single swimmer. When you swim with someone else, if one of you has a problem, the other may be able to get help, including signaling for assistance from others.Don’t fight the current. The facts show that some 80% of rescues by lifeguards at ocean beaches are caused by currents. These currents are formed by surf and gravity, because once surf pushes water up the slope of a beach, gravity pulls it back. This can create concentrated rivers of water moving offshore. If you are caught in a rip current, don’t fight it by trying to swim directly to shore. Instead, swim parallel to shore until you feel the current relax, then swim to shore. Most rip currents are narrow and a short swim parallel to shore will help bring you to safety.1. Tou rists believe Virginia Beach is at its best in the offseason because ________.A. the towns nearby are empty and the tourists can enjoy quietnessB. the weather is hot and the tourists can swim in the seaC. the beach can offer the tourists happiness and excitementD. the weather is still mild and there are fewer tourists in the towns nearby2. Which statement below is TURE according to the passage?A. Land-locked tourists are more attracted by the beauty of the waves.B. The red flag means the ocean is clam and safe.C. Swimming near a lifeguard won’t bring you safety.D. Fighting the current is exciting and fun.3. From the passage, we can infer that ________.A. one in five persons swimming in the sea is drownedB. if one with a lifeguard were drowning, five persons without lifeguards would beC. some 80% people drowning by the currents are rescued by lifeguardsD. some 20% people drowning by the currents are rescued by lifeguardsBIf you live in a big city, there are many things to drive you crazy on your daily route, and it’s not just overcrowded subway trains.Vicky Zhao is a mainlander working in Hong Kong. For her, one thing she can’t put up with is people standing on the wrong side of the escalator(自动扶梯) in subway stations. “Escalators help us move faster and save time. It isn’t a place to rest,” the 24-year-old says. “I often see tourists block the way with their suitcases or chatting on the escalators during rush hours.Admitting she is not the patient type, Zhao says things are much better in Hong Kong than in cities on the mainland where “stand right, walk left” signs are often ignored.The logic behind the “stand right, walk left”escalator e tiquette(礼仪) seems obvious. Even though you may want to catch your breath while you’re transported up or down, you should still consider others and leave enough space for people in a hurry, so that they can run and catch the train.Many cities’ escalators, including London’s and Beijing’s, use the “stand right, walk left” system to speed up the flow of people. (Australia is an exception and you should stand on the left side instead.) But some cities discourage people from moving on escalators out of safety r easons. In Hong Kong’s subway stations there are regular announcements asking people to “stand still” on escalators. Even so, most people in this fast-paced city observe the “stand right, walk left”etiquette.But the people who stand on esca lators defend the mselves by telling the walkers not to be so impatient. The BBC quotes one stander as saying: “If the person is in such a rush, why not just take the stairs? Even when the escalator is packed and there’s nowhere to move, I see these same people complai ning about not being able to pass.”Whatever the escalator etiquette is in the place you live or visit, do what most people are doing and always be mindful of others: leave enough space between each other, don’t stay at the end of the escalator, and if som eone is blocking your way, a simple “excuse me” is enough.4. In the second paragraph, the underlined word “It” refers to_____.A. the author’s living in the big city of Hong Kong.B. being crowded on the subway trains in rush hours.C. people’s blocking t he way or chat on the escalators.D. people’s standing on the right side resting.5. When on the escalator, a majority of local people in Hong Kong_____.A. stand still as the railway stations require.B. ignore the “ stand right, walk left” signsC. use the stairs instead of escalators.D. follow the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.6. What can be inferred from the 6th paragraph?A. Not everyone follows the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.B. The BBC is against the “stand right, walk left” etiquet te.C. People should be patient and take the stairs if possible.D. People shouldn’t complain about the crowded escalators.7. Which of the follo wing statements is the writer’s opinion?A. People should stand right no matter where they are.B. People should do as the Romans do and consider others.C. People should do as they like on the escalators.D. People should be seriously criticized when they block the way.CHu Li's heart sank due to the color of the air. Driving 140 kilometers from Tianjin City to Beijing last week,she held her breath as the air became a charcoal grey haze(炭灰色的阴霾).The 39yearold businesswoman has lived in Beijing for a decade,and this past month,she said,brought the worst air pollution she has ever seen. It gave her husband a cough and left her sevenyearold daughter housebound(足不出户).“My husband as well as I is working here,so we have no choice,” she said.“But if we had a choice,we'd like to escape from Beijing.”The extended heavy pollution over the last month,which caused punishment in return for a day last week-called the “airpocalypse” by internet users- has largely changed the way that Chinese think about the country's air. On one day,pollution levels were 30 times higher than levels considered safe by the World Health Organization (WHO).Flights were cancelled. Roads were closed. One hospital in east Beijing reported they had treated more than 900 children for breathing issues. Bloomberg found that for most of January,Beijing's air was worse than thatof an airport smoking area.The smog's(烟雾) most threatening aspect is its high concentration(浓度) of PM 2.5 -particulate matter that is small enough to breathe deep into the lungs and enter the bloodstream,causing breathing infections,lung cancer and possibly damaging children's development. The WHO has estimated that outdoor air pollution accounts for two million deaths per year,65% of them in Asia.8.Which conclusion can we draw from the first paragraph?A.Hu Li is living in Beijing. B.Hu Li traveled to Tianjin for business.C.The haze is harmful to people. D.The pollution is the worst in Beijing's history.9.The haze affected people mainly in________.A.the way they traveled B.the opinion about national airC.the way they lived their life D.the life style of internet10.From the passage we know high concentration of PM 2.5________.A.can lead to choke B.ca n cause heart cancerC.will damage children's development D.will damage people's organ11.What's the best title for the passage?A.Hu Li's attitudes to Beijing's haze B.The damages of Beijing's hazeC.WHO suggests improving Beijing's air D.What caused air pollution in BeijingDDo you believe that things are connected for no scientific reason at all? For example, do yo u avoid saying the word “four” to avoid bad luck? If so, you have a superstition (迷信). And you’re not alone – all kinds of people have them.For example, Portugal’s soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo always steps onto the pitch (球场) with his right foot first, according to The Telegraph. And sports players are not alone in having superstitions. A visitor once asked the Nobel Prize winning scientist Niels Bohr whether he really believed that the horseshoe he’d hung at his country home was lucky. “Of course not,” the Danish physicist said. “But I understand it’s lucky whether you believe in it or not.” One recent study found that even scientists at MIT and other top US schools tended to look for a meaning in natural events, similar to the connection between stepping on the pitch and playing soccer well, according to The Atlantic. When th e researchers gave the scientists little time to answer questions, they were twice as likely to agree with statements such as “Trees produce oxygen so that animals can bre athe” than they were when they had more time to think about their reply.It seems that fear can make people think differently in this way, too. In a British study, students imagined meeting a “witch” who said she would cast (施魔法) an evil spell on them. About half said a scientist should not be worried about the spell. Yet each of them said that, personally, they wouldn’t let the “witch” do it to them.So why are so many of us superstitious? Well, it seems to be our way of dealing with the unknown. “Many people quite simply just want to believe,” Brian Cronk, a professor of psychology at Missouri Western State University, said in a 2008 interview. “The human brain is always trying to work out why things happen, and when the reason is not clear, we tend to make up some pretty bizarre (古怪的) explanations.”And these explanations aren’t completely unhelpful. In fact, superstitions can sometimes work and bring real luck, according to psychologists at the University of Cologne in Germany in the May 2010 issue of the journal Psychological Science. They found that believing in something can improve performance on a task like an exam.So, what about you? What superstitions do you follow to keep you safe and successful?12. Why does the author mention word "four" in the first paragraph?A. to prove that it is reasonable to be superstitiousB. to introduce the readers to the topic of superstitionsC. to show how foolish it is to believe in superstitionsD. to discuss the scientific reasons behind superstitions13.How many examples of superstitions are mentioned in the passage?A. 2B. 3C. 4D.514.What’s the author’s attitude to superstitions?A. NeutralB. PositiveC. NegativeD. Unknown15. What is the best title of the article?A. How to get rid of superstitionsB. How superstitions affect our daily livesC. How some common superstitions came into beingD. Why superstitions are common第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It is possible that it grew out of the discovery that some people did certain kinds of work better than others did them. That led to the concept of specialization, which means that people would specialize, or focus, on doing one specific job.Let's take a man we'll call Mr. Fielder, for example. He did everything connected with farming. He planted seeds, tended the fields, and harvested and sold his crops. At the same time, he did many other jobs on the farm. However, he didn't make the bricks for his house, cut his trees into boards, make the plows(犁), or any of the other hundreds of things a farm needs. Instead, he got them from people who specialized in doing each of those things.Suppose there was another man we shall call Mr. Plowright. Using what he knew about farming and working with iron, Mr. Plowright invented a plow that made farming easier. Mr. Plowright did not really like farming himself and wanted to specialize in making really good plows. Perhaps, he thought, other farmers will trade what they grow for one of my plows.How did Mr. Plowright let people know what he was doing? Why, he advertised, of course. First he opened a shop and then he put up a sign outside the shop to attract customers. That sign may have been no more than a plow carved into a piece of wood and a simple arrow pointing to the shop door. It was probably all the information people needed to find Mr. Plowright and his really good plows.Many historians believe that the first outdoor signs were used about five thousand years ago. Even before most people could read, they understood such signs. Shopkeepers would carve into stone, clay, or wood symbols for the products they had for sale.A medium, in advertising talk, is the way you communicate your message. You might say that the first medium used in advertising was signs with symbols. The second medium was audio, or sound, although that term is not used exactly in the way we use it today. Originally, just the human voice and maybe some kind of simple instrument, such as a bell, were used to get people's attention.A crier, in the historical sense, is not someone who weeps easily. It is someone, probably a man, with a voice loud enough to be heard over the other noises of a city. In ancient Egypt, shopkeepers might hire such a person to spread the news about their products. Often this earliest form of advertising involved a newly arrived ship loaded with goods. Perhaps the crier described the goods, explained where they came from, and praised their quality. His job was, in other words, not too different from a TV or radio commercial in today's world.21.What probably led to the start of advertising?A.The discovery of iron. B.The specialization of labor.C.The appearance of new jobs. D.The development of farming techniques.22.To advertise his plows, Mr. Plowright ________.A.praised his plows in public B.placed a sign outside the shopC.hung an arrow pointing to the shop D.showed his products to the customers 23.The writer makes up the two stories of Mr. Fielder and Mr. Plowright in order to________.A.explain the origin of advertising B.predict the future of advertisingC.expose problems in advertising D.provide suggestions for advertising 24.The last two paragraphs are mainly about________.A. the history of advertisingB. the benefits of advertisingC. the early forms of advertisingD. the basic design of advertisingBBelow is a selection from a popular science book.If blood is red, why are veins(静脉) blue?Actually, veins are not blue at all. They are more of a clear, yellowish colour. Although blood looks red when it's outside the body, when it's sitting in a vein near the surface of the skin, it's more of a dark reddish purple colour. At the right depth, these blood-filled veins reflect less red light than the surrounding skin, making them look blue by comparison.Which works harder, your heart or your brain?That kind of depends on whether you're busy thinking or busy exercising. Your heart works up to three times harder during exercise, and shifts enough blood over a lifetime to fill a supertanker. But, in the long run, your brain probably tips it, because even when you're sitting stillyour brain is using twice as much energy as your heart, and it takes four to five times as much blood to feed it.Why do teeth fall out, and why don't they grow back in grown-ups?Baby(or“milk”) teeth do not last long; they fall out to make room for bigger, stronger adult teeth later on. Adult teeth fall out when they become damaged, decayed and infected by bacteria. Once this second set of teeth has grown in, you're done. When they're gone, they're gone. This is because nature figures you're set for life, and what controls regrowth of your teeth switches off.Do old people shrink as they age?Yes and no. Many people do get shorter as they age. But, when they do, it isn't because they're shrinking all over. They simply lose height as their spine(脊柱) becomes shorter and more curved due to disuse and the effects of gravity(重力). Many(but not all) men and women do lose height as they get older. Men lose an average of 3-4 cm in height as they age, while women may lose 5 cm or more. If you live to be 200 years old, would you keep shrinking till you were, like 60 cm tall, like a little boy again? No, because old people don't really shrink! It is not that they are growing backwards—their legs, arms and backbones getting shorter. When they do get shorter, it's because the spine has shortened a little. Or, more often, become more bent and curved.Why does spinning make you dizzy(眩晕的)?Because your brain gets confused between what you're seeing and what you're feeling. The brain senses that you're spinning using special gravity-and-motion-sensing organs in your inner ear, which work together with your eyes to keep your vision and balance stable. But when you suddenly stop spinning the system goes out of control, and your brain thinks you're moving while you're not!Where do feelings and emotions come from?Mostly from an ancient part of the brain called the limbic system. All mammals have this brain area—from mice to dogs, cats, and humans. So all mammals feel basic emotions like fear, pain and pleasure. But since human feelings also involve other, newer bits of the brain, we feel more complex emotions than any other animal on the planet.If exercise wears you out, how can it be good for you?Because our bodies adapt to everything we do to them. And as far as your body is concerned, it's “use it, or lose it”!It's not that exercise makes you healthy; it's more that a lack of exercise leaves your body weak and easily affected by disease.25.Why do some old people look a little shrunken as they age?A. Because their spine is in active use.B. Because they are more easily affected by gravity.C. Because they keep growing backwards.D. Because their spine becomes more bent.26.Which of the following statements about our brain is true?A. In the long run, our brain probably works harder than our heart.B. When our brain senses the spinning, we will feel dizzy.C. The brains of the other mammals are as complex as those of humans.D. Our feelings and emotions come from the most developed area in our brain.27.What is the main purpose of the selection?A. To give advice on how to stay healthy.B. To provide information about our body.C. To challenge new findings in medical research.D. To report the latest discoveries in medical science.CThe baby monkey is much more developed at birth than the human baby. Almost from the moment it is born, the baby monkey can move around and hold tightly to its mother. During the first few days of its life the baby will approach and hold onto almost any large, warm, and soft object in its environment, particularly if that object also gives it milk. After a week or so, however, the baby monkey begins to avoid newcomers and focuses its attentions on “mother”—the real mother or the mother-substitute (母亲替代物).During the first two weeks of its life warmth is perhaps the most important psychological (心理的) thing that a monkey mother has to give to its baby. The Harlows, a couple who are both psychologists, discovered this fact by offering baby monkeys a choice of two types of mother-substitutes—one covered with cloth and one made of bare wire. If the two artificial mothers were both the same temperature, the little monkeys always preferred the cloth mother. However, if the wire model was heated, while the cloth model was cool, for the first two weeks after birth the baby monkeys picked the warm wire mother-substitutes as their favorites. Thereafter they switched and spent most of their time on the more comfortable cloth mother.Why is cloth preferable to bare wire? Something that the Harlows called contact(接触) comfort seems to be the answer, and a most powerful influence it is. Baby monkeys spend much of their time rubbing against their mothers' skins, putting themselves in as close contact with the parent as they can. Whenever the young animal is frightened, disturbed, or annoyed, it typically rushes to its m other and rubs itself against her body. Wire doesn't “rub” as well as does soft cloth. Prolonged (长时间的) “contact comfort” with a cloth mother appears to give the babies confidence and is much more rewarding to them than is either warmth or milk.According to the Harlows, the basic quality of a baby's love for its mother is trust. If the baby is put into an unfamiliar playroom without its mother, the baby ignores the toys no matter how interesting they might be. It screams in terror and curls up into a furry little ball. If its cloth mother is now introduced into the playroom, the baby rushes to it and holds onto it for dear life. After a few minutes of contact comfort, it obviously begins to feel more secure. It then climbs down from the mother-substitute and begins to explore the toys, but often rushes back for a deep embrace (拥抱) as if to make sure that its mother is still there and that all is well. Bit by bit its fears of the new environment are gone and it spends more and more time playing with the toys and less and less time holding onto its “mother”.28.Psychologically, what does the baby monkey desire most during the first two weeks of its life?A. Warmth.B. Milk.C. Contact.D. Trust.29 After the first two weeks of their life, baby monkeys prefer the cloth mother to the wire mother because the former is ________.A. larger in sizeB. closer to themC. less frightening and less disturbingD. more comfortable to rub against30 What does the baby monkey probably gain from prolonged “contact comfort”?A. Attention.B. Softness.C. Confidence.D. Interest.31 The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A. give the reasons for the experimentB. present the findings of theexperimentC. introduce the method of the experimentD. describe the process of the experimentDIn 1974, after filling out fifty applications, going through four interviews, and winning one offer, I took what I could get—a teaching job at what I considered a distant wild area: western New Jersey. My characteristic optimism was alive only when I reminded myself that I would be doing what I had wanted to do since I was fourteen—teaching English.School started, but I felt more and more as if I were in a foreign country. Was this rural area really New Jersey? My students took a week off when hunting season began. I was told they were also frequently absent in late October to help their fathers make hay on the farms. I was a young woman from New York City, who thought that “Make hay while the sun shines” just meant to have a good time.But, still, I was teaching English. I worked hard, taking time off only to eat and sleep. And then there was my sixth-grade class—seventeen boys and five girls who were only six years younger than me. I had a problem long before I knew it. I was struggling in my work as a young idealistic teacher. I wanted to make literature come alive and to promote a love of the written word. The students wanted to throw spitballs and whisper dirty words in the back of the room.In college I had been taught that a successful educator should ignore bad behavior. So I did, confident that, as the textbook had said, the bad behavior would disappear as I gave my students positive attention. It sounds reasonable, but the text evidently ignored the fact that humans, particularly teenagers, rarely seem reasonable. By the time my boss, who was also my taskmaster, known to be the strictest, most demanding, most quick to fire inexperienced teachers, came into the classroom to observe me, the students exhibited very little good behavior to praise.My boss sat in the back of the room. The boys in the class were making animal noises, hitting each other while the girls filed their nails or read magazines. I just pretended it all wasn't happening, and went on lecturing and tried to ask some inspiring questions. My boss, sitting in the back of the room, seemed to be growing bigger and bigger. After twenty minutes he left, silently. Visions of unemployment marched before my eyes.I felt mildly victorious that I got through the rest of class without crying, but at my next free period I had to face him. I wondered if he would let me finish out the day. I walked to his office, took a deep breath, and opened the door.He was sitting in his chair, and he looked at me long and hard. I said nothing. All I could think of was that I was not an English teacher; I had been lying to myself, pretending that everything was fine.When he spoke, he said simply, without accusation, “You had nothing to say to them.”“You had nothing to say to them,” he repeated. “No wonder they're bored. Why not get to the meat of the literature and stop talking about symbolism. Talk with them, not at them. And more important, why do you ignore their bad behavior?” We talked. He named my problems and offered solutions. We role-played. He was the bad student, and I was the forceful, yet, warm, teacher.As the year progressed, we spent many hours discussing literature and ideas about human beings and their motivations. He helped me identify my weaknesses and my strengths. In short, hemade a teacher of me by teaching me the reality of Emerson's words: “The secret to education lies in respecting the pupil.”Fifteen years later I still drive that same winding road to the same school. Thanks to the help I received that difficult first year, the school is my home now.32.According to the passage, which of the following is most probably the writer's problem as a new teacher?A.
