27、Teens and their teachers know well that early-morning classes can be tiring. Doctors now have a solution: for better teen health, push the sleep button on school start times. Janet Croft, who studies teens and sleep at the Centers for Disease Control and

Prevention(CDC)in Atlanta high schools, says, “Most teens are actually brain dead when they go to these early classes. Too many students start their day as walking zombies(僵尸).”

One report stresses the importance of sleep for teens and describes the dangers from not getting enough sleep. Studies in the past have shown over and over that teens lacking sleep face higher risks of being overweight and being frustrated.

Many teens get too little sleep because they attend middle and high schools that start earlier than 8:30 am. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics(AAP),those early start times throw off a student’s internal body rhythm, called the circadian clock(生物钟).Too little sleep disturbs that clock and causes problems.

The study conducted by the National Sleep Foundation found that nearly 6 in every 10 middle school students and 9 in 10 high school students are sleeping too little. Yet many parents aren’t aware of this. In the same study,7 of every 10 parents said they believed their kids did sleep enough. That study shows too many parents are unaware of the science on teen-sleep needs, says Owens.

Kyla Wahlstrom, a former teacher, who has spent a lot of time with teens lacking sleep, says: “An incredible number of students are either sleeping at their desks or sitting there like a lump, not asking questions or raising their hands.”

Getting enough sleep can help a teen on the inside, too. Several studies have shown that children and teenagers who don’t sleep enough are more likely to become obese, or extremely overweight. Teens lacking sleep also are more likely to suffer from anxiety, depression and mood disorders. It’s time to recognize how important sleep is, particularly to teenagers.

【1】What does the author want to stress by mentioning “walking zombies” in Paragraph 2?

A．The students’ brain health is worrying.

B．The students are fond of computer games.

C．The students are so used to staying up very late.

D．The students are in a bad state of learning in early classes.

【2】According to AAP in Paragraph 4, early school schedules affect teens by

A．increasing their course load

B．affecting their circadian clock

C．affecting their performance at school

D．disturbing their relationships with classmates

【3】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A．The number of teens lacking sleep is growing fast.

B．Physical and mental health are equally important to teens.

C．It is really necessary to adjust school start times in the morning.

D．Teachers should take measures to raise students’ interest in learning.

【4】What’s the main idea of the text?

A．Parents are unaware of their kids’ sleep condition.

B．Being overweight is very common among American teens.

C．Early school start times can turn teens into the walking dead.

D．Researchers have found out how sleep is related to teens’ study.

28、Bats quickly eat the insects that bite us and ruin our crops. They pollinate (授粉) flowers and they replant forests by spreading seeds around. But as agriculture overtakes rain forests and jungles, humans have come into conflict with one bat species: the common vampire bat (吸血蝙蝠).

Well, vampire bats are ugly little animals. They’ve got these wrinkly noses that have infrared (红外线的) heat sensors so they can detect warm blood flowing beneath the skin. They’ve got ears that can pick up the sound of low frequencies. That’s the sound of big animals breathing. And they have super sharp teeth. So when you’re bitten by one of these bats, you don’t even feel it. They also have amazing movement skills. They can fly, but they can also run with their wings,

And vampire bats mainly interact with humans who are raising livestock. They’ll drink the blood of cows and pigs and chickens. You can find newborn cows with bites from vampire bats, chicken coops that are covered in drips of blood. Children will regularly wake up with vampire bat bites on their feet. Actually, the bites aren’t that big of a health problem. The main problem is that very rarely these bats are sick with rabies (狂犬病). And they can spread this fatal disease to cattle and people.

Gerry, a scientist, does experiments where he keeps one of the bats away from food for a night. And that’s something that actually happens in the wild all the time. The bat will go out and it can’t find anything to eat. And if that happens two nights in a row, the bat could actually starve to death. But what happens is that another bat will come in and they’ll rescue that hungry bat. They’ll let out a little blood to feed it. And this behavior is seen between mothers and their children and between siblings. But surprisingly, it’s also seen between bats that aren’t related at all.

【1】What does the second paragraph mainly want to tell us about vampire bats?

A．Their physical organs.

B．Their super powers.

C．Their living habits.

D．Their attacking skills.

【2】What is the vampire bat’s biggest threat to human beings?

A．It drinks the blood of livestock.

B．It prefers to bite little children.

C．It can spread a fatal disease.

D．It is often infected with rabies.

【3】What do Geny’s experiments find out?

A．Bats, not related by blood, share blood.

B．Bats usually live a hard life in the wild.

C．Different bats live a quite different life.

D．Blood is even more important for bats.

【4】What can we can infer from the text?

A．Vampire bats are human’s natural enemy.

B．Human should try to get rid of vampire bats.

C．Vampire bats are human’s true friends.

D．Vampire bats should not always be blamed.

29、   There are two kinds of secrets: secrets of nature and secrets about people. Natural secrets exist all around us; to find them, one must study some undiscovered aspect of the physical world. Secrets about people are different: they are things that people don't know about themselves or things they hide because they don't want others to know. So when thinking about what kind of company to build, there are two distinct questions to ask: What secrets is nature not telling you? What secrets are people not telling you?

It's easy to assume that natural secrets are the most important: the people who look for them can sound authoritative (权威的).This is why physics PhDs are difficult to work with—because they know the most basic truths, they think they know all truths. But does understanding electronic theory automatically make you a great marriage counselor? Does a gravity theorist know more about your business than you do? At PayPal, I once interviewed a physics PhD for an engineering job. Halfway through my first question, he shouted, "Stop! I already know what you're going to ask!" But he was wrong. It was the easiest no-hire decision I've ever made. Secrets about people are relatively overlooked. Maybe that's because you don,t need a dozen years of higher education to ask the questions that uncover them: What are people not allowed to talk about? What is forbidden or taboo?

The best place to look for secrets is where no one else is looking. Most people think only in terms of what they've been taught; schooling itself aims to spread basic wisdom. So you might ask: are there any fields that matter but haven't been standardized? Physics, for example, is a real major at all major universities, and it's set in its ways. The opposite of physics might be astrology, but astrology doesn't matter. What about something like nutrition? Nutrition matters for everybody, but you can't major in it at Harvard. Most top scientists go into other fields. Most of the big studies were done 30 or 40 years ago, and most are seriously flawed (有缺陷的).The food pyramid that told us to eat low fat and large amounts of grains was probably produced by Big Food(美国著名食品公司)than real science; its chief impact has been to worsen our obesity(肥胖)problem. There’s plenty more to learn: we know more about the physics of far away stars than we know about human nutrition. It won't be easy, but it's not obviously impossible: exactly the kind of field that could produce secrets.

【1】What can we learn about secrets in Paragraph 1?

A.To establish a company, one should explore secrets of both nature and people.

B.Trying to discover people themselves will help them to find the natural secrets.

C.Secrets of nature are more important than secrets about people.

D.We have to find the secrets that nature and people have told us.

【2】The PhD's example suggests  .

A.the physics PhD was not hired because he sounded authoritative

B.higher education will ensure a better understanding of secrets

C.it is necessary and important to appreciate secrets about people

D.it is not easy for physics PhDs to find an engineering job

【3】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.The best place to find secrets is where many great scientists are studying.

B.Eating low fat and large amounts of grains is certainly good for our health.

C.There may be some hidden secrets for us to find in the field of human nutrition.

D.Without physics, secrets in astrology and human nutrition would not have been found.

【4】What can be the best title for the passage?

A.Secrets of nature B.Secrets about people

C.How to build a secret company D.How to find secrets

30、Growing up in a military (军人的) family, I moved a lot. I mostly went to ________ with other kids whose parents were also in the military. But when my dad ________ from the army after twenty years of service, I found myself ________ a civilian (平民的)school with twelve-year-olds who shared no similar life experience with me.

I was a stranger in a strange land. Everyone in my class had grown up together, and they had no room to ________ for a newcomer.

To deal with it all, I began ________ in my diary every day --- stories of adventure, of old friends, of feelings that I could not speak. I wrote as if my life depended on it, as if the very next breath I took could not happen ________ I wrote down words.

One day, my teacher, Mrs. Bush, came to me and asked why I always sat there writing instead of playing with others. I told her I enjoyed writing and ________ writing to playing. She smiled at me and walked away. About three weeks later, Mrs. Bush gave us a writing assignment. I was ________ that I could now participate in something I knew I excelled (擅长) in. That night I worked and worked on the essay. I wrote with great ________ . It was my one chance to feel important and ________ by the class.

A few days after we handed in our assignments, Mrs. Bush called me up to the ________ of the classroom. I stood before thirty pairs of eyes looking at me, and I got ________. Was I in trouble? Did I do something wrong? Then Mrs. Bush told the class how much she ________ all the work that went into the essay and everyone had done a great job. But, she said, one student stood ________ as an excellent writer, one with imagination, creativity, and word mastery. That student was me! The class clapped politely and Mrs. Bush handed me my paper, with the following ________ on it: “Malinda, you are an excellent writer. You fill your paper with the breathing of your heart. Please keep on writing and share your ________ of writing with the world. I am proud of you and glad you are in my class.”

Mrs. Bush helped me feel a sense of ________, a place of purpose, and a way to survive a transition in life. She helped me gain ________ in myself that stayed with me beyond sixth grade.

34、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

On a broiling afternoon when the men were away at work and all the women napped, I moved through majestic depths of silences, silences so immense I could hear the corn 【1】. Under these silences there was a / an orchestra of natural music playing notes no city child would ever hear. A certain cackle from the henhouse meant we had gained an egg. The creak of a porch swing told of a momentary breeze blowing across my grandmother’s yard. As I 【2】 along a mossy bank to surprise a frog, a 【3】splash told me the quarry had spotted me and slipped into the stream. Wandering among the sleeping houses, I learned that tin roofs crackle under the power of the sun, and when I tired and came back to my grandmother’s house, I padded into her dark cool living room, lay 【4】 on the floor, and listened to the hypnotic beat of her pendulum clock on the wall ticking the meaningless hours away.

I was enjoying the luxuries of a rustic nineteenth-century boyhood, but for the women Morrisonville life had few 【5】. Their lives were hard, endless, dirty labor.

For baths, laundry, and dishwashing, they hauled buckets of water from a spring at the foot of a hill. To heat it, they chopped kindling to fire their wood stoves. They boiled laundry in tubs, scrubbed it on washboards until knuckles were 【6】, and wrung it out by hand. Ironing was a business of lifting heavy metal weights heated on the stove top.

They scrubbed floors on hands and knees, thrashed rugs with carpet beaters, killed and plucked their own chickens, baked bread and parties, grew and conned their won vegetables, patched the family’s clothing on treadle-operated sewing machines, 【7】before the men to start the stove for breakfast and pack lunch pails, polished the chimneys of kerosene lamps, and even found time to tend the flowers that grew around every house. By the end of a summer day a Morrisonville woman had toiled like a serf.

At sundown the men drifted back from the fields exhausted and 【8】. They scrubbed themselves in enamel basins and, when supper was eaten, climbed up onto the porch to watch the night arrive. Presently the women 【9】 them, and the twilight music of Morrisonville began.

The swing creaking , rocking chairs 【10】 on the porch planks, voices murmuring approval of the sagacity of Uncle Irvey as he quietly observed for probably the ten-thousandth time in his life, “A man works from sun to sun, but a woman’s work is never done.”

35、Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Knowledge is free on the Internet at a small but 【1】 number of colleges and universities. About 160 schools around the world now put free course materials on the web to the 【2】. Recent additions in the United States 【3】 projects at Yale, Johns Hopkins and the University of California, Berkeley.

Berkeley said it would offer videos of lectures on YouTube. Free videos from other schools are 【4】 at the Apple iTunes store.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) became an early 【5】 with its Open Course Ware project, first 【6】 in 2001. Free lecture notes, exams and other resources are published at ocw.mit.edu. Many exams even include the answers. Today, Open Course Ware offers materials from 1,800 undergraduate and graduate courses. These 【7】 from Physics to Political Science. Visitors can learn the same things as MIT students learn. But as the site points out, Open Course Ware is not an MIT education. Visitors receive no credit toward a degree.

38、阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写词数应为150左右。

A tradesman was leading a caravan (商队) to another country to sell his goods. Along the way they came to the edge of a hot-sand desert. They learnt that during the daytime the sun heated up the fine sand until it was as hot as charcoal (木炭), so no one could walk on it — not even camels! Then the caravan leader hired a desert guide, one who could follow the stars, so they could travel only at night when the sand cooled down. The guide sat on the first cart. And they began the dangerous night-time journey across the desert. A couple of nights later, after eating their evening meal and waiting for the sand to cool, they started out again.

Later that night, the desert guide, who was driving the first cart, saw from the stars that they were getting close to the other side of the desert. He had been very tired, so when he relaxed, he fell asleep. Then the camels who, of course, couldn’t tell directions by reading the stars, gradually turned to the side and went in a big wide circle until they ended up at the same place that they started from! By then it was morning, and the people woke up and realized they were back at the same spot where they started. They lost heart and began to cry about their condition. Since the desert crossing was supposed to be over by now, they had no more water, and they were worried about there was nothing to drink, and were extremely afraid they would die of thirst. They even began to blame the caravan leader and the desert guide. However, the leader himself didn’t lose courage. He talked with the desert guide and then they began wandering, trying to work out a plan.

Paragraph 1

Suddenly, the leader noticed a small clump (团) of grass.

39、阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

The biggest threat posed by the covid-19 outbreak is,of course, the health risks it poses. But that is not the only risk: Avoidance, social distancing and panic may have great economic consequences, large enough to significantly slow growth, push up unemployment and ever drag the economy into a decline.

In this respect, people who suffer most are low-waged workers in low income households without paid leave. Many employers are already telling their white collar workers to work home. But low wage workers such as cleaners, food service workers and cashiers can’t work remotely. If these workers are temporarily free by specific quarantines(隔离）， they won’t get paid. Their families tend to have little savings and live in a terrible state . Without work, these families face risks of intense economic hardship.

So we need a quickly effective policy that will maintain earnings for those who most depend on them. Many of these workers will be employed but temporarily free;others may lose their jobs as their employers try to manage shocks to their own business.

A better solution is for employers to continue paying workers directly during shutdowns, In most cases, employers will want the workers back once the threat of the viruses weaken, According to the Bureau of Labour Statistics, about 40 percent of private company workers paid below the median lack laid leave benefits.

As this crisis unfolds, the government in the world will be forced to launch some sort of quick response to reduce the effect of the virus. The question is: Will the measures be targeted to those who need them, or will it adopt the tax-cut mode? Millions of economic despair depend on policymakers getting this right.
