26、   For grown-ups, an afternoon snooze (打盹) is often easier said than done. But many of us have probably experienced just how simple it can be to catch some sleep in a gently rocking hammock (吊床). By examining brain waves in sleeping adults, researchers reported in the June 21 issue of Current Biology, a Cell Press publication, that they now have evidence to explain why that is.

“It is a common belief that rocking causes sleep: we fall asleep in a rocking chair soon and, since ancient times, we cradle our babies to sleep,” said Sophie Schwartz of the University of Geneva. “Yet, how this works had remained a mystery. The goal of our study was made up of two parts: to test whether rocking does indeed improve sleep, and to understand how this might work at the brain level.”

Schwartz, Michel Mühlethaler, and their colleagues Laurence Bayer and Irina Constantinescu asked twelve adult volunteers to nap on a custom­made bed or “experimental hammock” that could either remain still or rock gently. All participants were good sleepers who didn’t typically nap and did not suffer from excessive sleepiness during the day. Each participant took two 45•minute afternoon naps, one with the bed still and one with the bed in motion, while their brain activity was monitored.

“We observed a faster transition to sleep in each and every subject in the swinging condition,” Mühlethaler said. “Surprisingly, we also observed a dramatic boosting of certain types of sleep­related brain waves.”

More specifically, rocking increased the length of stage N2 sleep, a form of non•rapid eye movement sleep that normally occupies about half of a good night’s sleep. The rocking bed also had a lasting effect on brain activity, increasing slow brain waves and bursts of activity known as sleep spindles (纺锤体).

Schwartz and Mühlethaler say the next step is to find out whether rocking can improve longer periods of sleep and to find out whether it may be useful for the treatment of sleep disorders, such as insomnia (失眠).

【1】What does the June 21 issue of Current Biology tell us according to Paragraph 1?

A.It is more difficult for grown•ups to fall asleep.

B.People today like to sleep in a rocking hammock.

C.Many people nowadays suffer from excessive sleepiness.

D.There comes the evidence for why rocking benefits people’s sleep.

【2】What can we learn from Sophie Schwartz’s words?

A.Her team aimed to answer two questions.

B.The study is going to benefit babies a lot.

C.The study had been kept secret before being finished.

D.People used to believe rocking was bad for sleep.

【3】What finding was beyond the researchers’ expectation?

A.The rocking seemed to improve participants’ sleep quality.

B.All the participants fell asleep faster in the swinging condition.

C.Some participants couldn’t fall asleep in the swinging condition.

D.Participants had a tendency to sleep excessively in the swinging bed.

【4】What is the best title?

A.Take a Snooze Easier Said than Done

B.Want a Faster Sleep? Change Your Sleeping Habits

C.Need a Nap? Find Yourself a Hammock

D.Suffer from Sleep Disorder? New Treatment Found

27、   On the morning of July 14, 1960, Jane Goodall arrived on the east shore of Lake Tanganyika and the Gombe National Park. Then, around 5 pm, somebody reported that they had seen a chimpanzee (黑猩猩). Straight away, Jane set off into the forest to find her chimpanzees.

As a young woman, Jane Goodall had no scientific knowledge but this didn’t stop her from following her childhood dream of studying chimpanzees in Africa. After many months of difficult work she found: chimpanzees eat meat, they use tools to get food and they also make tools. Every evening, Jane wrote her findings in a diary and she began to publish articles in journals. After a while, scientists started reading her studies and Jane was offered a place at a university. After more years of research she became Doctor Jane Goodall in 1966. There was a film Miss Goodall and the Wild Chimpanzees (1963) and then the first of many books called My Friends the Wild Chimpanzees (1969).

During the 1970s, Gombe became a dangerous place to work, where often there was fighting between soldiers. Many foreigners fled the region but Jane stayed. A different problem developed in Gombe in the 1980s. The human population in the region was increasing. As a result of this there were only about a hundred chimpanzees living in Gombe. Jane realised that something had to be done, so she set about helping the local community to grow more trees for them in the region.

After 1989, Jane started giving lectures, fighting against the cruelty to chimpanzees used in medical research laboratories. She was also busy setting up sanctuaries for chimps which had been caught or were orphans (孤儿) because of the trade in chimpanzee meat. Nowadays, she has very little spare time left but she still spends part of every year in the forest in Gombe, watching her chimpanzees.

【1】In which order did Jane do the following things?

a. received her doctor’s degree

b. made discoveries about chimpanzees

c. wrote her first book about chimpanzees

d. gave lectures about chimpanzee protection

A. bacd. B. adbc.

C. acdb. D. abdc.

【2】What was the problem that happened to chimpanzees in Gombe in the 1980s?

A. Diseases made their population drop sharply.

B. Many foreigners took them away from Gombe.

C. Their homes were almost destroyed by humans.

D. Fighting among soldiers broke out in their homes.

【3】Which of the following best explains “sanctuaries” underlined in the last paragraph?

A. Modern hospitals. B. Safe houses.

C. Wildlife markets. D. Research labs.

【4】Why does the author use “her chimpanzees” in Paragraph 1 and 4?

A. To tell us Jane is their protection hero. B. To prove Jane’s research needs them.

C. To explain Jane has raised them. D. To show Jane loves them deeply.

29、   If you're looking to fully experience Africa's breathtaking scenery, and have an eye for adventure, then there's only one place to be. Here, inside Africa picks four of the best hikes from across the continent.

1. Kilimanjaro

Make it to the top of Tanzanians 5,895-meter Kilimanjaro, and you'll be standing at Africa's highest point. The mountain is Africa's most-visited hiking destination, attracting tens of thousands of tourists and adventures every year.

You don't have to be a technical climber to climb Mount Kilimanjaro； you just need not be pretty physically fit. There are six routes to choose from difficulty, scenery and success. No special equipment.

2. Atlas Mountains

The High Atlas is an impressive mountainous range in central Morocco that hosts North Africa's highest peak — Mount Toubkal, at 4,165 meters. There's a variety of routes to follow during your climb but inexperienced climbers should note that the hike through the mountain' challenging zones is quite demanding.

3. Mount Kenya

A long-extinct volcano. Mount Kenya is Africa's second-highest peak, at 5,199 meters.

Lying just south of the equator, the mountain's deep valleys and diverse wildlife will guarantee you wonderful scenery and a fantastic hiking experience.

The climb, however, to the mountain's steep ice-capped peaks is quite challenging, making it the most technical, probably, in that East African area.

4. Mount Meru

Mount Meru may forever exist in the shadow of its neighbor, Kilimanjaro, but Tanzanians second-highest mountain （4,565 meters） has its own devotees.

It's less known, but Mount Meru is for the true enthusiast who wants to experience what very few people actually do.

Mount Meru is often used by mountaineers to accustom themselves before trying to conquer Kilimanjaro, or by those wanting a hike with the local Massai.

【1】What do we know about Kilimanjaro?

A.It's the highest mountain in the world. B.It's relatively easy to climb.

My daughter

(A story told by a father, a famous actor)

My wife and I only had the one child. We had Amy.

I see her as my best friend. I think she’d always come to me first if she had a problem. We have the same sense of humor, and share interests. 【1】 I don’t mind animals, she’s completely fascinated with them, and she has always had dogs, cats, horses, and goldfish in her life.

We were 【2】 (close) when she was about four, which I think is a lovely age for a child. They know the parents best, and don’t have outside contacts. She must have grown up suddenly when she went to school, because I remember her growing away from her family slightly. Any father who has a teenager daughter comes across an extraordinary collection of people, and there seemed to be an endless stream of strange young men 【3】 (come) through our house. By the time I learned their names they 【4】 (go) away and I had to start learning a new lot.

I wanted more than anything else for her to be happy in 【5】 she was doing, and I was prepared to pull strings to help her on her way. When she left a good school she decided she wanted to become an actress so I got her into drama school. It wasn’t to her liking so she joined a theatre group and began doing bits and pieces in films. She was doing well, but then gave it up. She probably found it boring. Then she took up social work, and finally went to work 【6】a designer and he became her husband. And that’s really the story of her life. She must be happy with him—they’re always together.

We have such similar tastes in books and music 【7】 I used to take her to see an opera, which is my big passion. However, I don’t think she likes it very much. She doesn’t come with me anymore.

I don’t think she’s a big television watcher. She knows when I’m on the television, and she 【8】 watch, but I don’t know. It’s not the kind of thing she tells me.

We’re very grateful for Amy. She’s a good daughter as daughters go. We’re looking forward to being grandparents.

35、I have a muscle disease but I don't look any different from other people. Sometimes, I was too weak【1】 go to school so my education suffered. Every time I returned after an【2】(absent), I felt stupid because I was behind the others.

My life is a lot easier at high school because few fellow students make me【3】(annoy). My ambition is to work for a firm【4】develops computer software when I grow up. Last year I invented a computer football game and a big company has decided to buy it from me. I have a very busy life with no time to sit around【5】(feel) sorry for myself. As well as going to the movies and football matches with my friends. I spend a lot of time looking after my pets【6】(proper) but I find it worthwhile.

In many ways my disability has helped me grow stronger psychologically and become more【7】 (independence). I have to work hard to live a normal life but it has been worth it. If【8】(have) a chance to say one thing to healthy children, it would be this: having a disability does not mean your life is not satisfying. So don't feel sorry for the disabled or make fun【9】them, and don't ignore them either. Just accept them for who they are, and give them encouragement to live【10】rich and full a life as you do.

36、Directions: Complete the following sentences by using the proper form of the words or expressions given in the frame. Each one can only be used once.

Why your Password May Not Be As Safe As It Seems?  Does “qaz2ws” strike you as a nice safe password? What about “adgjmptw”? An analysis has found them to be among the passwords that are most 【1】 used, which of course means they are not secure at all.

When ten million passwords were leaked on to the internet，they appeared to 【2】that attempts by internet security experts to make us improve our password strength had been successful, even if, in the specific case of the leaked passwords, they are also completely pointless.

While many of the passwords were still single words, such as “password”，there was also a clear attempt by many to make them harder to【3】. The problem was that people seemed to do so in the same way.

“Users are becoming slightly more 【4】what makes a password strong,” explained WP Engine, an internet company that performed the analysis. “For instance, adding a number or two at the end of a text phrase. That makes it better, right?”

But 【5】no. They found that almost half a million passwords did this and in 20 percent of those all people did was put the number “1” at the end.

Perhaps this is why some companies are now trying to move gradually beyond passwords. Yahoo! is giving users the option to 【6】 their mobile phone with an account, having a single use passwords texted to it each time they want to log on.

Although the serviced is voluntary, Dylan Casey an executive at Yahoo!，said that it was “the first step to【7】passwords”. He said it was a(n)【8】that it was increasingly hard for people to remember all the passwords they had. “I don’t think we, as an industry, have done a good enough job of putting ourselves in the shoes of the people using our products,” he said.

It would certainly be a more sensible strategy than same people’s improving upon “password” by using “password” or，“tran5p053d numb3r5 f0r 133tr3r5”.

“We are, for the most part，predictably【9】when it comes to choosing passwords, despite a decade of warnings from password strength checkers during sign-ups” said WP Engine. “We love taking a(n) 【10】, and so do password crackers.

THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE

In Congress, July 4, 1776

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s god entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should d【1】 the causes which impel them to the separation.

We h【2】 these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created e【3】, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable R【4】, that among these are life, L【5】, and the pursuit of Happiness.

That to secure these rights, g 【6】 are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.

That whenever any form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the P 【7】 to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, l【8】 its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such f【9】, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience has shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariable the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their d 【10】, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

38、阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。

In 2000, when I was around seven years old, my parents, sister, brother, and I were coming back from a picnic. That was our usual weekend adventure, but unlike every other weekend, a surprise was waiting for us in our driveway. There, we saw two adult geese (鹅) and a young goose. The adults were surprised by our return and flew away, but their baby was still too young to fly and couldn’t follow. We are no strangers to the ways of wildlife, so we knew to avoid physical contact with the young goose out of fear that it would stay with us and be lost to its family forever.

Hours passed, and night fell. With it came the coldness. The tiny little thing was walking around our yard and it was clear that the goose needed protection and warmth. At that point, we knew we had to help, аnd wе brоught hіm іntо оur bасk роrсh (门廊).

We all pretty much slept with one eye open till morning came. And then another morning. And still another. Each morning, we would try to shoo (赶走) the goose to his parents, who kept coming back to our yard. He wouldn’t go to them, though, and they wouldn’t come close enough to take him. We kept this up for five days, but no luck. By then, the young goose had clearly decided we were his new family, so we had to give him a name. My sister Joanna called him Peeper, because he would follow us around the yard making a peeping noise, nonstop. We also decided that Peeper was a boy. I don’t know why; it just felt right.

Days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months until almost a year passed. Peeper slept in our back porch each night. My dad would clean all the goose droppings daily. He would throw Peeper up into the air so he could fly a loop (圈) around the house, coming back again once the porch was clean.
