For example, 300 years ago people in Great Britain got their water from something they called 6 a faucet, a spigot, or a tap.

This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you’re “hot”.That’s true. The time of the day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it tends to such familiar monologues（独白）as “Get up,John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can he lp, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (减弱)your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up and work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your shaper hours.63. If a person finds getting up early is a problem, most probably __________.A. he is a lazy personB. he refuses to follow his own energy cycleC. he is not sure when his energy is lowD. he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening64. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to thepassage?A. Unawareness of energy cycles.B. Familiar monologues.C. A change in a family member’s energy cycle.D. Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.65. If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should _______.A. change his energy cycleB. overcome his lazinessC. get up earlier than usualD. go to bed earlier66. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ________.A. help to keep your energy for the day’s workB. help you to control your temper early in the dayC. enable yon to concentrate on your routine workD. keep your energy cycle under control all day参考答案II. 1. puzzled 2. missing 3. disappearance 4. search 5. possibility6. witnessed7. convincing8. nightmare9. mysteries10. white-skinnedIII. 1. out → up 2. interested → interest 3. next 前加上the 4. straightly → straight5. researches → research6. 去掉the7. for him to come → of his coming8. evidences → evidence 9. brightly → bright 10.

Title：__1__who won the Nobel Peace PrizeⅡ.简答题A vast dust storm that blew in from the deserts of Australia’s red centre has blanketed the country’s largest city and eastern coast in a red fog，causing widespread traffic chaos and severe flight delays.Residents from Sydney in New South Wales to Canberra inland and towns in southern Queensland awoke to a red sky and greatly reduced visibility after the country’s worst dust storm in 70 years blew in overnight.The Sydney Harbor Bridge and Opera House were covered in the red fog and hundreds of people were reported to suffer from breathing problems.Children，the elderly and those suffering from asthma(哮喘)were advised to stay indoors as even healthy adults reported “itchy throats” after walking through the thick fog.Commuters used face masks，originally intended to protect them from the spread of swine flu，to negotiate(越过)the blocked streets on their way to work.Some schools were closed and sports activities were called off as the conditions pushed air pollution levels to 1,500 times their normal levels—the highest on record.Passengers at the busy Sydney Airport faced delays of up to six hours for international flights and three hours for domestic trips，and some international flights were cancelled as visibility was reduced to just a few feet.Locals，ringing in to radio stations to express their shock at the red dawn.“It’s like a nuclear winter morning，”Daniel Hall told the Daily Telegraph，adding that when he awoke the sky was “bright red” and “all the cars were covered in dirt”．The dust hanging over Sydney had largely cleared by mid-afternoon，although national carrier Qantas said severe delays would last all day because of diverted and late-running flights.The sandstorm，which measured more than 310 miles wide and 620 miles long，was caused by dust clouds blowing east from Australia’s dry interior，which has been attacked by the worst drought on record.It covered dozens of towns and cities in two states as strong winds snatched up tons of topsoil，threw it high into the sky and carried it hundreds of miles. 1．Who were warned not to stay in the open air？(no more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________2．What was the face mask originally intended for？(no more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________3．What effect did the dust storm have on the flight？(no more than 8 words)________________________________________________________________________4．What is the main idea of the last paragraph？(no more than 8 words)________________________________________________________________________Ⅲ.阅读理解What will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question，you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术)．With the help of new medicine，the human body will last a very long time.Death will come mainly from accidents，murder and war.Today’s leading killers，such as heart disease，cancer，and aging itself，will become distant memories.In discussion of technological changes，the Internet gets most of the attention these days.But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times.How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death.Cells are the basic units of all living things，and until recently，scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells，such as those of brain cells，would not last forever.But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine.Sometime between 2050 and 2100，medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so，people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs.The medicine，made up of the basic building materials of life，will build new brain cells，heart cells，and so on，in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence，but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.1．According to the passage，human death is now mainly caused by ________.A．diseases and aging B．accidents and warC．accidents and aging D．heart disease and war2．In the author’s opinion，today’s most important advance in technology lies in ________.A．medicine B．the InternetC．brain cells D．human organ3．Humans may live longer in the future because ________.A．heart disease will be far away from usB．human brains can decide the final deathC．the basic materials of cells will last foreverD．human organs can be repaired by new medicine4．How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?A．Over 100 years.
