Getti ng less sleep has become a bad habit for most America n kids. Accord ing to a new survey(调

查)by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school ni ghts, eve n though they have to get up early. Last year the Foun dati on reported that n early 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.

How much sleep you n eed depe nds a lot on your age. Babies n eed a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults n eed about eight hours. For most school-age childre n, ten hours is ideal(理想的).But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to 12-year-olds get only seve n or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.

“ More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there ar e more opportunities(机会)to stay awake, with more homework, the Internet and the phone, "says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brow n Un iversity Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teen agers ' bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for tee nagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.

Because sleep in ess is such a problem for tee nagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes

later tha n they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minn esota, cha nged the start time from 7:25 am to 8:30 am.

Stude nts, pare nts and teachers are pleased with the results.

25. What is the new Nati onal Sleep Foun dati on survey on?

A. America n kids ' sleep ing habits.

B. Teen agers ' sr e eped diseases.

C. Activities to preve nt sleepless ness.

D. Lear ning problems and lack of sleep.

26. How many hours of sleep do 11-year-olds n eed every day?

A. 7 hours.

B. 8 hours.

C. 10 hours.

D. 18 hours.

27. Why do tee nagers go to sleep late accord ing to Carskado n?

A. They are affected by certa in body chemicals.

B. They tend to do things that excite them.

C. They follow their pare nts ' examples.

D. They don ' t need to go to school early.

FLORENCE, Italy ——Svetla na Cojochru feels hurt. The Moldova n has lived here seve n years as a caregiver to Italia n kids and the elderly, but in order to stay she prove her Ian guaQe s kiad to

by taking a test which requires her to write a postcard to an imaginary friend and answer a ficti onal job ad.

Italy is the latest Western European country trying to control a growing immigrant(移民) population by demanding Ianguage skills in exchange for work permits, or in some cases, citize nship.

Some immigra nt advocates worry that as hard finan cial times make it more difficult for n atives to keep jobs, such measures will become more a vehicle for in tolera nee tha n in tegrati on(融合). Others say it ' s only natural that newcomers learn the Ianguage of their host nation, seeing it as a con diti on to en sure they can con tribute to society.

Other European countries laid down a similar requirement for immigrants, and some terms are even tougher. The governments argue that this will help foreigners better join the society and promote un dersta nding across cultures.

Italy, which has a much weaker traditi on of immigrati on, has wit nessed a sharp in crease in immig rati on in recent years .In 1990, immigra nts nu mbered some 1.14 millio n out of Italy ' 56.7 million people, or about 2 percent. At the start of this year, foreigners living in Italy amoun ted to 4.56 milli on of a total populati on of 60.6 milli on, or 7.5 perce nt, with immigra nts '

children accounting for an even larger percentage of births in Italy.

Cojochru, the Moldovan caregiver, hoped obtaining permanent residence(居住权)would help her bring her two children to Italy; they live with her sister in Moldova, where salaries are among the lowest in Europe. She was skeptical that the Ianguage requirement would encourage in tegrati on.

Italia ns always “ see me as a foreig ner, ” an outsider, even though she ' s stayed in the coun years and can speak the local la nguage flue ntly, she said.

28. Why does Cojochru have to take a Ian guage test?

A. To continue to stay in Italy.

B. To teach her children Italian.

C. To find a better job in Italy.

D. To better mix with the Italia ns.

29. Some people worry that the new Ian guage requireme nt may ______ .

A. reduce Italy ' s population quickly

B. cause con flicts among people

C. lead to finan cial difficulties

D. put pressure on schools

30. What do we know about Cojochru?

A. She lives with her sister now in Italy.

B. She enjoys learning the Italian Ianguage.

C. She speaks Italia n well eno ugh for her job.

D. She wishes to go back to her home coun try.

How to Do Man-o n-the-Street In terviews

The man-on-the-street in terview is an in terview in which a reporter hits the streets with a camerama n to in terview people on the sport. 31 But with these tips, your first man-on-the-street in terview experie nee can be easy.

When your boss or professor sends you out to do man-on-the-street i nterviews for a story, think about the topic and develop a list of about ten general questions relating to it. For example, if your topic is about environmental problems in America, you might ask, “ Why do you think en viro nmen tal protecti on is importa nt in America? 32 ”

Hit the streets with con fide nee. 33 Say, “ Excuse mework for XYZ News, and I was

wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic. ” This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.

Move on to the next pers on if some one tells you she is not in terested.

Don' t get discouraged.

?34 Each in terview that you get on the street should n ' t be Ion ger tha n ten minu tes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person. Make sure that as you go from in terview to in terview, you are gett ing a variety of an swers. If every one is givi ng you the same

an swer, you won ' t be able se it. A safe nu mber of in terviews to con duct are about six to ten.

35

?If your news station or school requires interviewees to sign release forms to appear on the air, don ' t leave work without them.

A. Limit your time.

B. As you approach people, be polite.

C. If you don ' t own a camera, you can buy one.

D. For new reporters, this can seem like a challe nging task.

E. To get good and useful results, ask them the same questio n.

F. That nu mber of in terviews should give you all the an swers you n eed.

G. With a question like this, you will get more than a “ Yes” or

reply.

第二节(共10小题;每小题 1.5分,满分15分) 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 There has been a recent trend in the food service industry toward lower fat content and less salt. This trend, which was started by the medical community(医学界)61 a method of fighting heart disease, has had some unintended side 62(effect) such as overweight and heart disease—the very thing the medical community was trying to fight. Fat and salt are very important parts of a diet. They are required 63(process) the food that we eat, to recover from injury and for several other bodily functions. When fat and salt 64 (remove) from food, the food tastes as if it is missing something. As 65 result, people will eat more food to try to make up for that something missing. Even 66 (bad), the amount of fast food that people eat goes up. Fast food 67(be) full of fat and salt; by 68 (eat) more fast food people will get more salt and fat than they need in their diet. Having enough fat and salt in your meals will reduce the urge to snack(吃点心) between meals and will improve the taste of your food. However, be 69 (care) not to go to extremes. Like anything, it is possible to have too much of both, 70 is not good for the health. 翻译:最近,在食品服务业方面有一种朝着低脂肪和少盐的趋势。这种趋势最初是由医学界发起,用来作为防御心脏病的一种方式,已经产生一些意料之外的副作用,例如,肥胖 和心脏病,这正好是医学界致力去防御的疾病。 脂肪和盐分是每日膳食中的重要部分。我们需要他们去加工处理摄入的食物、有助于伤病的恢复和满足几项人体正常的运作。当脂肪和盐分从食物当中被去除了,食物尝起来 好像有所缺失。结果,人们会吃更多的食物来补偿缺失的东西。甚至更糟糕的是,人们吃 了更多的快餐食品。快餐中脂肪和盐的含量很高;由于吃了更多的快餐,人们会摄入比他 们在饮食中所需要的更多的盐分和脂肪。 通过每日饮食摄入足够的脂肪和盐分会减少在两餐之间吃点心的欲望,而且会提高你的食物的味道。然而,要注意不要摄入过量。跟其他食物一样,我们也有可能会吃太多, 这一点是对我们的健康不利。 61.as 考查介词。根据句意“这一趋势最开始被医学界作为一种治疗心脏病方法”可知这里 表达“作为”之意,所以答案填as。 62.effects 考查名词单复数。有前面的修饰短语some可知这里的side effects应该用复数,所以答案填effects。 63.to process 考查非谓语动词。根据固定短语be required to do sth.“被要求做某事”可知此处答案填to process。

2017年高考浙江卷英语试题 第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分35分) 第一节(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分) A Benjamin West, the father of American painting, showed his talent for art when he was only six years of age. But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one. In those days, a brush was made from camel’s hair. There were no camels nearby. Benjamin decided that cat hair would work instead. He cut some fur from the family cat to make a brush. The brush did not last long. Soon Benjamin needed more fur. Before long, the cat began to look ragged (蓬乱). His father said that the cat must be sick. Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing. The cat’s lot was about to improve.That year, one of Benjamin’s cousins, Mr. Pennington, came to visit. He was impressed with Benja min’s drawings. When he went home, he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes. He also sent six engravings(版画)by an artist. These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had ever seen.In 1747, when Benjamin was nine years old, Mr. Pennington returned for another visit. He was amazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift. He asked Benjamin’s parents if he might take the boy to Philadelphia for a visit. In the city, Mr. Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings. The boy began a landscape(风景) painting. William Williams, a well-known painter, came to see him work. Williams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home. The books were long and dull. Benjamin could read only a little, having been a poor student. But he later said,"Those two books were my companions by day, and under my pillow at night."While it is likely that he understood very little of the books, they were his introduction to classical paintings. The nine-year-old boy decided then that he would be an artist. 21. What is the text mainly about? A. Benjamin’s visit to Philadelphia.

B I first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn’t want me for the film— it wanted somebody as well known as Paul — he stood up for me. I don’t know how many people would have done that; they would hav e listened to their agents or the studio powers. The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft (技艺)and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other— but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core(核心)of our relationship off the screen. We shared the bel ief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back—he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps fo r kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn’t see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events. I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in and out of the hospital. He and I both knew what the deal was, and we didn’t talk about it. Ours was a relationship that didn’t need a lot of words. 24.Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to author at first? A. Paul Newman wanted it. B. The studio powers didn’t like his agent. C. He wasn’t famous enough. D. The director recommended someone else. 25.Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship? A. They were of the same age. B. They worked in the same theater. C. They were both good actors. D. They have similar characteristics. 26.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Their belief. B. Their care for children. C. Their success. D. Their support for each other. 27.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To show his love of films. B. To remember a friend. C. To introduce a new movie. D. To share his acting experience. C Terrafugia Inc. said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight, bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year. The vehicle —named the Transition – has two seats, four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car. The Transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air. It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and burns 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon. Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale, and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show. But don’t expect it to show up in too many driveways. It’s expected to cost $279,000. And it won’t help if you’re stuck in traffic. The car needs a runway. Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to Robert Mann, an airline industry expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. The government has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly.
