Dyslexia
As many as 20% of all children in the United States suffer from some form of the learning disorder2 called dyslexia.
Experts on dyslexia say that the problem is not a disease. They say that persons with dyslexia use information in a different way .One of the world ‘s great thinkers and scientists. Albert Einstein was dyslexic. Einstein said that he never thought in words the way that most people do .He said that he thought in pictures instead .The American inventor Thomas Edison was also dyslexic. Dyslexia first was recognized in Europe and the United States more than 80 years ago. Many years passed before doctors discovered that persons with the disorder were not mentally slow or disabled .The doctors found that the brains of persons with dyslexia are different. In most people, the left side of the brain3——the part that controls language is larger than the right side. In persons with dyslexia, the right side of the brain is bigger. Doctors are not sure what causes this difference. However, research has shown that dyslexia is more common in males than in females, and it is found more often in persons who are left handed4. No one knows the cause of dyslexia, but some scientists believe that it may result from chemical changes in a baby's body long before it is born. They are trying to find ways to teach persons with dyslexia. Dyslexic persons think differently and need special kinds of teaching help. After they have solved their problems with language, they often show themselves to be especially intelligent or creative.

More Than 8 Hours Sleep Too Much of a Good Thing
Although the dangers of too little sleep are widely known,new research suggests that people who sleep too much may also suffer the consequences.
Investigators at the University of California in San Diego found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight appear to have more trouble falling and staying asleep,as well as a number of other sleep problems,than people who sleep 8 hours a night.People who slept only 7 hours each night also said they had more trouble falling asleep and feeling refreshed after a night's sleep than 8-hour sleepers.
These findings, which DL Daniel Kripke reported in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, demonstrate that people who want to get a good night's rest may not need to set aside.more than 8 hours a night.He added that“it might be a good idea''for people who sleep more than 8 hours each night to consider reducing the amount of time they spend in bed, but cautioned that more research is needed to confirm this.
Previous studies have shown the potential dangers of chronic shortages of sleep一for instance, one report demonstrated that people who habitually sleep less than 7 hours each night have a higher risk of dying within a fixed period than people who sleep more.
For the current report,Kripke reviewed the responses of 1,004 adults to sleep questionnaires,in which participants indicated how much they slept during the Week and whether they experienced any sleep problems.Sleep problems included waking in the middle of the night,arising early in the morning and being unable to fall back to sleep,and having fatigue interfere with day-to-day functioning.
KriDke found that people who slept between 9 and 10 hours each night were more likely to report experiencing each sleep problem than people who slept 8 hours.In an interview, Kripke noted that long sleepers may struggle to get rest at night simply because they spend too much time in bed.As evidence,he added that one way to help insomnia is to spend less time in bed.“It stands to reason that if a person spends too long a time in bed, then they'll spend a higher percentage of time awake.”he said.

Storms Sink Ships
Rescuers have found the bodies of over 130 people killed in two ferry disasters in
Bangladesh.The accidents happened during a storm that hit the country on April 21.Hundreds more are missing or feared dead.
The two ferries sank in different rivers near the capital city of Dhakfi as strong winds and rain hit the South Asian country.
The government has since banned a11 ferries and other boats from traveling at night during the April-May stormy season. .
One of the ferries,MV Mitali,was carrying far more people than it was supposed to.About 400 passengers fitted into a space made for just 300,police said.The second ferry carried about 1 00 passengers.
“The number of deaths is certain to rise.”said an official in charge of the rescue work.“No one really knows how many people were on board‘the ferry or how many of them survived.''
Ferries in Bangladesh don't always keep passenger lists,making it difficult to determine the exact number of people on board.
Besides the ferry accidents,at least 40 people were killed and 400 injured by lightning strikes.falling houses and trees and the sinking of small boats.
Storms are common this time of year in Bangladesh,as are boating accidents.Ferry
disasters take away hundreds of lives every year in a nation of 130 million people.
Officials blame these river accidents on a lack of safety measures.too many passengers in boats and not enough checks on weather conditions.
Ferries are a common means of transport in Bangladesh.It is a country covered by about 230 rivers.Some 20,000 ferries use the nation's Waterways every year.And many of them are dangerously overcrowded.
Since 1977, more than 3.000 people have died in some 260 boating accidents.

ferry n.渡船

Stress Level Tied to Education Level
People with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to a report in the current issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior.
However, the study also found that when 1ess-educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and had a larger impact on their health.
From this.researchers have concluded that the day-to-day factors that cause stress are not random.Ⅵr11ere you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how well you will cope with them.
The research team interviewed a national sample of 1.03 1 adults daily for eight days about their stress level and health.People without a high school diploma reported stress on 30 percent of the study days,people with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time,and people with college degrees reported stress 44 percent of the time.
‘’Less advantaged people are less healthy on a daily basis and are more likely to have downward turns in their health.'“l(fā)ead researcher Dr.Joseph Grzywacz,of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, said in a prepared statement.”The downward turns in health were connected with daily stressors.and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more devastating for the less advantaged.“
Grzywacz suggested follow-up research to determine why less-educated people report fewer days of stress when it is known their stress is more acute and chronic.
“If something happens every day, maybe it'snot seen as a stressor”Grzywacz says.“Maybe it is just 1ife.”
詞匯:
stressful adj.緊張的;壓力重的
diploma n.畢業(yè)文憑,畢業(yè)證書
stressor n.緊張刺激物
devastating adj.毀滅性的
follow-up n.(對病人的)隨訪

Late-night drinking
Coffee lovers beware. Having a quick “ pick-me-up” cup of coffee late in the day will play havoc with you sleep. As well as being a stimulant, caffeine interrupts the flow of melatonin, the brain hormone that send people into a sleep.
Melatonin levels normally start to rise about two hours before bedtime. Levels then peak between 2 a.m. and 4 a. m , before falling again. “It's the neurohormone that controls our sleep and tells our body when to sleep and when to wake,” says Maurice Ohayon of the Stanford Sleep Epidemiklogy Research Center at Stanford University in California. But researchers in Israel have found that caffeinated coffee halves the body's levels of this sleep hormone
Lotan Shilo and a team at the Sapir Medical Center in Tel Aviv University found that six volunteers slept less well after a cup of caffeinated coffee than after drinking the same amount of decaf. On average, subjects slept 336 minutes per night after drinking caffeinated coffee,compared with 415 minutes after decaf .They also took half an hour to drop off——twice as long as usual——and jigged around in twice as much……
In the second phase of the experiment, the researchers woke the volunteers evey three hous and asked them to give a urine sample. Shilo measured concentrations of abreakers were half those in decaf drinkers. The results suggest that melatonin concentrations in caffeine drinkers were half those in decaf drinkers. In a paper accepted for publication in Sleep Medicine, the researchers suggest that caffeine blocks production of the enzyme the drives melatonin production.
Because it can take many hours to eliminate caffeine from the body, Ohayon recommends that coffee lovers switch to decaf after lunch.
練習(xí):
1. The author mentions“ pick-me-up” to indicate that
A) melatonin levels need to be raised.
B) Neurohormone can wake us up.
C) Coffee is stimulant.
D) Decaf is a caffeinated coffee.
2. Which of the following tells us how caffeine affects sleep?
A) Caffeine blocks production of the enzyme that stops melatonin production.
B) Caffeine interrupts the flow of sleep hormone.
C) Caffeine halves the body's levels of sleep hormone.
D) Caffeine stays in the body for many hours.
3. What does paragraph 3 mainly discuss?
A) Different effects of caffeinated coffee and decaf on sleep.
B) Different findings of Lotan Shilo and a team about caffeine.
C) The fact that the subjects slept 415 minutes per night after drinking decaf.
D) The evidence that the subjects took half an hour to fall asleep.
4. What does the experiment mentioned in paragraph in paragraph 4 prove?
A) There are more enzymes in decaf drinkers' urine sample.
B) There are more melatonin concenrrations in caffeine drinkers' urine sample.
C) Decaf drinkers produce less melatonin.
D) Caffeine drinkers produce less sleep hormone.
5. The author of this passage probably agrees that
A) coffee lovers sleep less than those who do not drink coffee.
B) We should not drink coffee after supper.
C) People sleep more soundly at midnight than at 3 a.m……
D) If we feel sleepy at night, we should go to bed immediately.

1. B. 分析:借助畫線短語核心詞(bring)的基本含義—“帶來/引起”,并借助與畫線結(jié)構(gòu)相直接相關(guān)的結(jié)構(gòu)含義(質(zhì)量控制系統(tǒng)被……)判斷B(引進(jìn))是答案。該句含義是“將引進(jìn)一種新的質(zhì)量控制系統(tǒng)以克服公司產(chǎn)品出現(xiàn)的缺陷。”Invest: vt.(常與in連用)投入(資金,精力,時(shí)間等) ; insist: vi, vt(常與on, that連用)主張;堅(jiān)持, 堅(jiān)持要求(賓語從句跟虛擬語氣結(jié)構(gòu))
2. B.分析:and的使用表明前后兩個(gè)結(jié)構(gòu)是在語法結(jié)構(gòu)對稱,且含義上色彩一致,這樣排除A(“發(fā)展”和“失去重要性”在詞義色彩上相反)和D(renew = re + new(re表示“再次”)),所以可推出renew是“更新”)。 借助句意判斷disappear(消失)是答案。該句含義是“舊的公司失去了它們的重要性,而其中的一些公司完全得消失了?!眑ink vt, vi(常與together, to, with連用)連接。
3. A.分析:break有多種含義。Break是“打破, 違犯, 折斷,超過”,而被選項(xiàng)中只有A有“打”的含義,所以判斷beat是答案。該句含義是“在奧運(yùn)會上每當(dāng)運(yùn)動員打破了以往的比賽記錄人們就會為之而歡呼興奮?!绷硗?,maintain,announce和match都是常見詞, 基本含義分別是“保持”,“宣布”和“比得上”。
4.A. 分析:根據(jù)句意(“政府正在……教育法”)排除B(搭配詞義不通順),C和D(C和D都通常和進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)連用)。debate: vt, vi討論,爭論;discuss : vt談?wù)?;討論;商討(with sb. );delay: vt, vi, n. 推遲;延緩 ;Decline: vt, vi下降;下滑;下傾
5. D.分析:在該句中yield 是用作名詞(因?yàn)樵撛~的前面有不定冠詞a),分析:抓住句子中與劃線部分相關(guān)的結(jié)構(gòu)或用詞特點(diǎn):能與不定冠詞a搭配使用的被選項(xiàng)只有C和D(氣候,傾向, 風(fēng)氣,如:a mild climate溫和的氣候)。再借助句子中其他特征詞:farm,判斷harvest“收成”是答案。該句含義是“這一年中他們的收成要比數(shù)英里以外的其他任何農(nóng)場的收成都好得多?!盰ield: vt, vi出產(chǎn), (常與to連用)放棄;投降;讓步 n. 產(chǎn)量;收成
6.A.分析:劃線短語是動詞短語,對于該短語的語義有兩種查找方法:1.利用動詞do,直接在字典中查找do away with 這個(gè)短語的語義。不難得出該短語的語義是“去掉”,所以A是答案;2.利用該短語中的詞義推測:away是“離開”,而備選項(xiàng)中: set up是“建立”, repair是“修理”, paint 是“油漆, 描繪”,都與“離開”無關(guān),所以只有g(shù)et rid of是答案。該句句意是“這座城市已經(jīng)決定把位于市中心的所有的舊的建筑物都廢棄掉?!?BR> 7.C. 分析:根據(jù)畫線詞的家族詞(drama)的本義和與畫線詞搭配的結(jié)構(gòu)的含義(“變化”),判斷C是答案。該句含義是“在過去的十年中,在國際形式方面已經(jīng)出現(xiàn)了顯著的變化?!盨triking: adj. 引人注意的;顯著的;Dramatic: adj. 戲劇的;有關(guān)戲劇的; 引人注目的。
8. A.分析:利用被選項(xiàng)的特點(diǎn):A和B是正反項(xiàng),所以重點(diǎn)注意。而B,C 和D都是近義詞,表示“可能的”,所以相互排除掉。答案是A.該句含義是“檢察員明天不可能會來?!眔ut of the question adv. 不可能;另外,likely 還可以用作副詞,表示“ 或許, 很可能”。
9. C.分析:根據(jù)句意(人們正在研制開發(fā)…太陽能的技術(shù)。)判斷C合適。Convert vt.使轉(zhuǎn)變, 轉(zhuǎn)換……; store vt.貯藏, 貯備, 存儲n.商店, 店鋪, 貯藏。
10. D.分析:根據(jù)構(gòu)詞法:劃線詞的前部分是 damage(破壞),即damaging是動詞damage的分詞,所以推測該詞義大概是“破壞的” .而備選答案都是常見詞匯,其中只有harmful是“破壞的”,因此可以推斷harmful是答案。該句含義是“從經(jīng)濟(jì)大蕭條以后,美國政府一直在(采取措施)使農(nóng)民避免遭受到由于糧食價(jià)格的下降而帶來的損失”。
11. B.分析:seldom是常見詞匯,該詞義是“很少地” .而備選答案中rarely也是常見的否定副詞,是“很少地”。該句含義是“水泥在中世紀(jì)的建筑中很少使用?!?BR> 12. C.分析:根據(jù)句意(醫(yī)學(xué)依靠其他領(lǐng)域獲得它所需要的基本信息,尤其是這些領(lǐng)域中的一些從事專門研究的領(lǐng)域)判斷C(尤其是)最合適。Conventionally adv.按照慣例;inevitably adv.不可避免;obviously adv.明顯地
13. A.分析:astonish 和amaze是近義詞,表示“使驚訝”, amount作動詞用時(shí)經(jīng)常和介詞to連用,表示 “總計(jì), 等于”, amuse是“使愉快”,approach可用作動詞表示“接近”,或作名詞表示“方法,途徑”。該句含義是“我們很驚訝的得知他們的足球隊(duì)曾經(jīng)贏得過冠軍?!?BR> 14.B.分析:steady 和stable是近義詞,都可表示“穩(wěn)定的”, 所以可以相互排除掉。再根據(jù)構(gòu)詞法:plentiful = plenti(y) + ful 判斷B的含義是“大量的”。借助句意“在這個(gè)國家里有大量的廉價(jià)勞動力”判斷B最合適。
15.D.分析:crucial“至關(guān)緊要的”和 urgent“緊急的”含義最接近。該句句意是“任何經(jīng)濟(jì)體系所面臨的最至關(guān)緊要的的問題是如何使用它稀少的資源”。Puzzling adj.(使)迷惑的, (使)為難的; terrifying adj.使感到恐怖的;
第二部分:閱讀判斷(每題1分,共七分)

2、C.問題句說“世界上許多偉大的思想家和科學(xué)家都還有讀寫困難癥。”。利用“偉大的思想家和科學(xué)家”作為答案線索詞,在文章第2段的第3句找到答案相關(guān)句。但該句僅提到愛因斯坦和愛迪生為讀寫困難癥患者,并未講有許多科學(xué)家和思想家也有這種情況。
3、A.利用“the first cases”作為答案線索詞,于是在第2段發(fā)現(xiàn)“Dyslexia was first recognized…”,該句說歐洲和美國在80多年以前首次發(fā)現(xiàn)讀寫困難癥患者。
4、B. 注意含有“the left side of the brain/the right side of the brain”的句子。于是我們發(fā)現(xiàn)答案相關(guān)句說患讀寫困難癥的人的右腦比左腦大。
5、A.注意文章中含有“the left handed/the right handed”的句子。于是找到答案相關(guān)句“research has showed that…”,該句說有研究表明男人比女人更易患讀寫困難癥,慣用左手者比慣用右手者更易患讀寫困難癥,據(jù)此我們可以推斷該句子是正確的。
6、C.文章中根本就沒有提到“母親及母親的不良習(xí)慣”,且文章說讀寫困難的成因尚不清楚。
7、A.利用“intelligent 和creative”,我們在文章最后一句話找到答案相關(guān)句,該句說解決了語言方面的問題之后,得過讀寫困難癥的人往往表現(xiàn)出超人的智慧和創(chuàng)造力。
第三部分:概括大意與完成句子 (每題1分,共8分)
閱讀下面這篇短文,短文后有2項(xiàng)測試任務(wù):(1)1——4 題要求從所給的6個(gè)選項(xiàng)中為第2——5 段每段選擇1個(gè)正確的小標(biāo)題;(2)第5——8題要求從所給的6個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選擇4個(gè)正確的選項(xiàng),分別完成每個(gè)句子。請將答案涂在答題卡相應(yīng)的位置上。
More Than 8 Hours Sleep Too Much of a Good Thing
1. E: Investigators ……found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight appear to have more trouble falling, than……該句回應(yīng)了文章的主題—睡眠時(shí)間太長不是好事;對應(yīng)被選項(xiàng)發(fā)現(xiàn)只有E和F與這個(gè)內(nèi)容有關(guān)系,但段落最后一句中又提到了睡眠不足的人的問題,因此判斷E是答案(睡眠長和睡眠短的人所面臨的睡眠問題)。
2.B.分析:段落的結(jié)構(gòu)—— Previous studies have shown the potential dangers of chronic shortages of sleep一for instance……表明了該段的中心是講述“長期睡眠不足的潛在危險(xiǎn)”
3. A. 分析:對于該段落答案的選擇具有一定的迷惑性,A和F容易相互成為干擾項(xiàng),但由于段落中提到的“睡眠問題”是屬于問卷上要回答的內(nèi)容,是和Keprike的直接研究有關(guān),所以判斷A是答案。同時(shí)猜測F可能是干擾項(xiàng)
4. D: 段落中出現(xiàn)的Kripke found, Kripke noted和he added表明“Kripke的觀點(diǎn)和態(tài)度應(yīng)該是該段的中心”,對比被選項(xiàng)排除C(段落中沒有出現(xiàn)批評的話語)和F(段落中沒有具體提到睡眠問題的表現(xiàn)形式),而段落最后第2句提到了克服失眠的方法—少花時(shí)間在床上,與D呼應(yīng)。
5.F.分析:根據(jù)搭配結(jié)構(gòu)need to do sth.判斷所有選項(xiàng)都在語法上合適。借助搭配句意:“為了獲得晚上好的休息,人們沒有必要……”判斷F(睡眠超過8小時(shí))。
6.E.分析:借助搭配句意:“睡眠時(shí)間長的人根據(jù)報(bào)道更有可能……”,并結(jié)合文章主題—睡眠時(shí)間長不是好事情,判斷E合適。也可借助文章中的相關(guān)內(nèi)容(利用題干中的Long sleepers和more likely 作為答案線索):KriDke found that people who slept between 9 and 10 hours each night were more likely to report experiencing each sleep problem than people who slept 8 hours.
7. A. 分析:借助搭配句意:“其中的一個(gè)睡眠問題是在午夜醒來,不能……”,直接判斷A(再次入睡)合適。
8. C.分析:借助搭配句意:“一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示那些習(xí)慣性每晚……的人有更高的死亡風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。”
第四部分:閱讀理解(每題3分,共45分)
下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道題,每道題后面有4個(gè)選項(xiàng)。請仔細(xì)閱讀短文并根據(jù)短文回答其后面的問題,從4個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選擇1個(gè)答案涂在答題卡相應(yīng)的位置上。
第1篇
Storms Sink Ships
1. A 該題問的是:在兩次渡船失事中已發(fā)現(xiàn)多少人死了?第一段第一個(gè)句子說到“救援人員已經(jīng)找到了在盂加拉國的兩次渡船失事中的130多人的尸體”。當(dāng)然,實(shí)際的死亡人數(shù)還要高。
2? C.該題問的是:這兩次渡船失事發(fā)生在什么時(shí)候?這是一道推理題。文章中沒有一個(gè)句子直接地提供了這方面的信息。但是第三段間接地傳遞了這方面的信崽:政府自此后禁止所有的渡船和其他船只在四五月的暴風(fēng)季節(jié)夜航。
3? D. 該題問的是:渡船MV Mitali設(shè)計(jì)載客量是多少?答案在第四段的第二句:把大約400個(gè)旅客裝進(jìn)了只能容納300個(gè)旅客的空間。
4 D. 該題問的是:官員們解釋船只失事的原因是什么?倒數(shù)第三段說到了缺乏安全措施
5.C.該題問的是: 下面有關(guān)這兩次渡船失事的說法哪種是錯(cuò)的?第5段有這樣一句話:沒有人真正知道當(dāng)時(shí)有多少人在船上,也不知道有多少人還活著,第6段是這么說的:盂加拉國的渡船不是總能留下乘客的名單的,使得確認(rèn)船上確切的人數(shù)很困難。
第2篇
Stress Level Tied to Education Level
1. B 從文章題目便可得知,一個(gè)人的緊張程度與其受教育的程度掛鉤,而受教育的程
度又直接影響一個(gè)人的社會地位。因此,文章第三段提到,一個(gè)人的社會地位決定了
其每日所面臨的問題和處理這些問題的能力。由此可見,緊張程度與社會地位密切相
關(guān)。
2. A 文章第四段提到,研究人員對全國抽樣的1 031名成人連續(xù)八天每天進(jìn)行采訪。
3. D 從文章第四段可以得知,調(diào)查對象學(xué)歷越高,自己所報(bào)告的緊張?zhí)鞌?shù)便越多。
4. A 文章第五段提到,一個(gè)人的社會地位越低,緊張對其健康造成的危害也就越大。
5. C 文章最后兩段提到,受教育程度越低者所報(bào)告緊張?zhí)鞌?shù)越少的原因有可能是他們
對緊張因素己司空見慣,視其為生活的一部分,而不是什么特別值得注意的。
第3篇

2 C.分析:利用題干中的核心詞caffeine,作為答案線索,這樣發(fā)現(xiàn)答案相關(guān)句:But researchers in Israel have found that caffeinated (caffeine的家族詞匯)coffee halves the body's levels of this sleep hormone(根據(jù)halves這個(gè)詞的使用判斷C是答案。)
3.A.分析:該題考察判斷指定段落的大意。
Lotan Shilo and a team at the Sapir Medical Center in Tel Aviv University found that six volunteers slept less well after a cup of caffeinated coffee than after drinking the same amount of decaf. (概括句,直接與問題相關(guān))On average, subjects slept 336 minutes per night after drinking caffeinated coffee, (when they are)compared with 415 minutes after decaf .They also took half an hour to drop off (睡著)——twice as long as usual——and jigged around in bed (輾轉(zhuǎn)反側(cè))twice as much……(具體例子用以證明前面概括句中的觀點(diǎn))
4 D.分析:注意到備選項(xiàng)都是涉及到細(xì)節(jié)內(nèi)容,因此在指定段落中一一進(jìn)行查找和確認(rèn)。同時(shí)注意每個(gè)備選項(xiàng)中的核心詞/短語。The results suggest that melatonin concentrations in caffeine drinkers were half those in decaf drinkers (該句句意表明B的說法錯(cuò)誤)。 In a paper accepted for publication in Sleep Medicine, the researchers suggest that caffeine blocks production of the enzyme that drives melatonin production(該句句意表明A和C的說法錯(cuò)誤)。
5 B.分析:該題涉及到文章主題,首先把四個(gè)備選項(xiàng)一一進(jìn)行分析比較,然后首先把剩下的文章最后內(nèi)容看完:Because it can take many hours to eliminate caffeine from the body, Ohayon recommends that coffee lovers switch to decaf after lunch.(從該句中可以推導(dǎo)出B的內(nèi)容)
第五部分:補(bǔ)全短文(每題2分,共10分)
1.D本段講的是手臂的動作。已知的兩個(gè)句子是對手臂在具體情況下具體動作的描述。

Dyslexia
As many as 20% of all children in the United States suffer from some form of the learning disorder2 called dyslexia.
Experts on dyslexia say that the problem is not a disease. They say that persons with dyslexia use information in a different way .One of the world ‘s great thinkers and scientists. Albert Einstein was dyslexic. Einstein said that he never thought in words the way that most people do .He said that he thought in pictures instead .The American inventor Thomas Edison was also dyslexic. Dyslexia first was recognized in Europe and the United States more than 80 years ago. Many years passed before doctors discovered that persons with the disorder were not mentally slow or disabled .The doctors found that the brains of persons with dyslexia are different. In most people, the left side of the brain3——the part that controls language is larger than the right side. In persons with dyslexia, the right side of the brain is bigger. Doctors are not sure what causes this difference. However, research has shown that dyslexia is more common in males than in females, and it is found more often in persons who are left handed4. No one knows the cause of dyslexia, but some scientists believe that it may result from chemical changes in a baby's body long before it is born. They are trying to find ways to teach persons with dyslexia. Dyslexic persons think differently and need special kinds of teaching help. After they have solved their problems with language, they often show themselves to be especially intelligent or creative.

More Than 8 Hours Sleep Too Much of a Good Thing
Although the dangers of too little sleep are widely known,new research suggests that people who sleep too much may also suffer the consequences.
Investigators at the University of California in San Diego found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight appear to have more trouble falling and staying asleep,as well as a number of other sleep problems,than people who sleep 8 hours a night.People who slept only 7 hours each night also said they had more trouble falling asleep and feeling refreshed after a night's sleep than 8-hour sleepers.
These findings, which DL Daniel Kripke reported in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, demonstrate that people who want to get a good night's rest may not need to set aside.more than 8 hours a night.He added that“it might be a good idea''for people who sleep more than 8 hours each night to consider reducing the amount of time they spend in bed, but cautioned that more research is needed to confirm this.
Previous studies have shown the potential dangers of chronic shortages of sleep一for instance, one report demonstrated that people who habitually sleep less than 7 hours each night have a higher risk of dying within a fixed period than people who sleep more.
For the current report,Kripke reviewed the responses of 1,004 adults to sleep questionnaires,in which participants indicated how much they slept during the Week and whether they experienced any sleep problems.Sleep problems included waking in the middle of the night,arising early in the morning and being unable to fall back to sleep,and having fatigue interfere with day-to-day functioning.
KriDke found that people who slept between 9 and 10 hours each night were more likely to report experiencing each sleep problem than people who slept 8 hours.In an interview, Kripke noted that long sleepers may struggle to get rest at night simply because they spend too much time in bed.As evidence,he added that one way to help insomnia is to spend less time in bed.“It stands to reason that if a person spends too long a time in bed, then they'll spend a higher percentage of time awake.”he said.
1. Paragraph 2 ___.
2. Paragraph 4___.
3. Paragraph 5___.
4. Paragraph 6___.
A. Keprike's research tool
B. Dangers of Habitual shortages of sleep
C. Criticism on Kripke's report

Storms Sink Ships
Rescuers have found the bodies of over 130 people killed in two ferry disasters in
Bangladesh.The accidents happened during a storm that hit the country on April 21.Hundreds more are missing or feared dead.
The two ferries sank in different rivers near the capital city of Dhakfi as strong winds and rain hit the South Asian country.
The government has since banned a11 ferries and other boats from traveling at night during the April-May stormy season. .
One of the ferries,MV Mitali,was carrying far more people than it was supposed to.About 400 passengers fitted into a space made for just 300,police said.The second ferry carried about 1 00 passengers.
“The number of deaths is certain to rise.”said an official in charge of the rescue work.“No one really knows how many people were on board‘the ferry or how many of them survived.''
Ferries in Bangladesh don't always keep passenger lists,making it difficult to determine the exact number of people on board.
Besides the ferry accidents,at least 40 people were killed and 400 injured by lightning strikes.falling houses and trees and the sinking of small boats.
Storms are common this time of year in Bangladesh,as are boating accidents.Ferry
disasters take away hundreds of lives every year in a nation of 130 million people.
Officials blame these river accidents on a lack of safety measures.too many passengers in boats and not enough checks on weather conditions.
Ferries are a common means of transport in Bangladesh.It is a country covered by about 230 rivers.Some 20,000 ferries use the nation's Waterways every year.And many of them are dangerously overcrowded.
Since 1977, more than 3.000 people have died in some 260 boating accidents.

Stress Level Tied to Education Level
People with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to a report in the current issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior.
However, the study also found that when 1ess-educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and had a larger impact on their health.
From this.researchers have concluded that the day-to-day factors that cause stress are not random.Ⅵr11ere you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how well you will cope with them.
The research team interviewed a national sample of 1.03 1 adults daily for eight days about their stress level and health.People without a high school diploma reported stress on 30 percent of the study days,people with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time,and people with college degrees reported stress 44 percent of the time.
‘’Less advantaged people are less healthy on a daily basis and are more likely to have downward turns in their health.'“l(fā)ead researcher Dr.Joseph Grzywacz,of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, said in a prepared statement.”The downward turns in health were connected with daily stressors.and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more devastating for the less advantaged.“
Grzywacz suggested follow-up research to determine why less-educated people report fewer days of stress when it is known their stress is more acute and chronic.
“If something happens every day, maybe it'snot seen as a stressor”Grzywacz says.“Maybe it is just 1ife.”
詞匯:
stressful adj.緊張的;壓力重的
diploma n.畢業(yè)文憑,畢業(yè)證書
stressor n.緊張刺激物
devastating adj.毀滅性的
follow-up n.(對病人的)隨訪

Late-night drinking
Coffee lovers beware. Having a quick “ pick-me-up” cup of coffee late in the day will play havoc with you sleep. As well as being a stimulant, caffeine interrupts the flow of melatonin, the brain hormone that send people into a sleep.
Melatonin levels normally start to rise about two hours before bedtime. Levels then peak between 2 a.m. and 4 a. m , before falling again. “It's the neurohormone that controls our sleep and tells our body when to sleep and when to wake,” says Maurice Ohayon of the Stanford Sleep Epidemiklogy Research Center at Stanford University in California. But researchers in Israel have found that caffeinated coffee halves the body's levels of this sleep hormone
Lotan Shilo and a team at the Sapir Medical Center in Tel Aviv University found that six volunteers slept less well after a cup of caffeinated coffee than after drinking the same amount of decaf. On average, subjects slept 336 minutes per night after drinking caffeinated coffee,compared with 415 minutes after decaf .They also took half an hour to drop off——twice as long as usual——and jigged around in twice as much……
In the second phase of the experiment, the researchers woke the volunteers evey three hous and asked them to give a urine sample. Shilo measured concentrations of abreakers were half those in decaf drinkers. The results suggest that melatonin concentrations in caffeine drinkers were half those in decaf drinkers. In a paper accepted for publication in Sleep Medicine, the researchers suggest that caffeine blocks production of the enzyme the drives melatonin production.
Because it can take many hours to eliminate caffeine from the body, Ohayon recommends that coffee lovers switch to decaf after lunch.
練習(xí):
1. The author mentions“ pick-me-up” to indicate that
A) melatonin levels need to be raised.
B) Neurohormone can wake us up.
C) Coffee is stimulant.

答案及解析
第一部分:詞匯選擇(第1-15題,每題1分,共15分)
下面共有15句子,每個(gè)句子均有一個(gè)詞或短語劃有底橫線,請從每個(gè)句子后面所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選擇一個(gè)與劃線部分意義最相近的詞或短語。答案一律涂在答題卡相應(yīng)的位置上。
1. B. 分析:借助畫線短語核心詞(bring)的基本含義—“帶來/引起”,并借助與畫線結(jié)構(gòu)相直接相關(guān)的結(jié)構(gòu)含義(質(zhì)量控制系統(tǒng)被……)判斷B(引進(jìn))是答案。該句含義是“將引進(jìn)一種新的質(zhì)量控制系統(tǒng)以克服公司產(chǎn)品出現(xiàn)的缺陷。”Invest: vt.(常與in連用)投入(資金,精力,時(shí)間等) ; insist: vi, vt(常與on, that連用)主張;堅(jiān)持, 堅(jiān)持要求(賓語從句跟虛擬語氣結(jié)構(gòu))
2. B.分析:and的使用表明前后兩個(gè)結(jié)構(gòu)是在語法結(jié)構(gòu)對稱,且含義上色彩一致,這樣排除A(“發(fā)展”和“失去重要性”在詞義色彩上相反)和D(renew = re + new(re表示“再次”)),所以可推出renew是“更新”)。 借助句意判斷disappear(消失)是答案。該句含義是“舊的公司失去了它們的重要性,而其中的一些公司完全得消失了?!眑ink vt, vi(常與together, to, with連用)連接。
3. A.分析:break有多種含義。Break是“打破, 違犯, 折斷,超過”,而被選項(xiàng)中只有A有“打”的含義,所以判斷beat是答案。該句含義是“在奧運(yùn)會上每當(dāng)運(yùn)動員打破了以往的比賽記錄人們就會為之而歡呼興奮?!绷硗?,maintain,announce和match都是常見詞, 基本含義分別是“保持”,“宣布”和“比得上”。
4.A. 分析:根據(jù)句意(“政府正在……教育法”)排除B(搭配詞義不通順),C和D(C和D都通常和進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)連用)。debate: vt, vi討論,爭論;discuss : vt談?wù)?;討論;商討(with sb. );delay: vt, vi, n. 推遲;延緩 ;Decline: vt, vi下降;下滑;下傾
5. D.分析:在該句中yield 是用作名詞(因?yàn)樵撛~的前面有不定冠詞a),分析:抓住句子中與劃線部分相關(guān)的結(jié)構(gòu)或用詞特點(diǎn):能與不定冠詞a搭配使用的被選項(xiàng)只有C和D(氣候,傾向, 風(fēng)氣,如:a mild climate溫和的氣候)。再借助句子中其他特征詞:farm,判斷harvest“收成”是答案。該句含義是“這一年中他們的收成要比數(shù)英里以外的其他任何農(nóng)場的收成都好得多?!盰ield: vt, vi出產(chǎn), (常與to連用)放棄;投降;讓步 n. 產(chǎn)量;收成
6.A.分析:劃線短語是動詞短語,對于該短語的語義有兩種查找方法:1.利用動詞do,直接在字典中查找do away with 這個(gè)短語的語義。不難得出該短語的語義是“去掉”,所以A是答案;2.利用該短語中的詞義推測:away是“離開”,而備選項(xiàng)中: set up是“建立”, repair是“修理”, paint 是“油漆, 描繪”,都與“離開”無關(guān),所以只有g(shù)et rid of是答案。該句句意是“這座城市已經(jīng)決定把位于市中心的所有的舊的建筑物都廢棄掉?!?BR> 7.C. 分析:根據(jù)畫線詞的家族詞(drama)的本義和與畫線詞搭配的結(jié)構(gòu)的含義(“變化”),判斷C是答案。該句含義是“在過去的十年中,在國際形式方面已經(jīng)出現(xiàn)了顯著的變化?!盨triking: adj. 引人注意的;顯著的;Dramatic: adj. 戲劇的;有關(guān)戲劇的; 引人注目的。
8. A.分析:利用被選項(xiàng)的特點(diǎn):A和B是正反項(xiàng),所以重點(diǎn)注意。而B,C 和D都是近義詞,表示“可能的”,所以相互排除掉。答案是A.該句含義是“檢察員明天不可能會來?!眔ut of the question adv. 不可能;另外,likely 還可以用作副詞,表示“ 或許, 很可能”。
9. C.分析:根據(jù)句意(人們正在研制開發(fā)…太陽能的技術(shù)。)判斷C合適。Convert vt.使轉(zhuǎn)變, 轉(zhuǎn)換……; store vt.貯藏, 貯備, 存儲n.商店, 店鋪, 貯藏。
10. D.分析:根據(jù)構(gòu)詞法:劃線詞的前部分是 damage(破壞),即damaging是動詞damage的分詞,所以推測該詞義大概是“破壞的” .而備選答案都是常見詞匯,其中只有harmful是“破壞的”,因此可以推斷harmful是答案。該句含義是“從經(jīng)濟(jì)大蕭條以后,美國政府一直在(采取措施)使農(nóng)民避免遭受到由于糧食價(jià)格的下降而帶來的損失”。
11. B.分析:seldom是常見詞匯,該詞義是“很少地” .而備選答案中rarely也是常見的否定副詞,是“很少地”。該句含義是“水泥在中世紀(jì)的建筑中很少使用?!?BR> 12. C.分析:根據(jù)句意(醫(yī)學(xué)依靠其他領(lǐng)域獲得它所需要的基本信息,尤其是這些領(lǐng)域中的一些從事專門研究的領(lǐng)域)判斷C(尤其是)最合適。Conventionally adv.按照慣例;inevitably adv.不可避免;obviously adv.明顯地
13. A.分析:astonish 和amaze是近義詞,表示“使驚訝”, amount作動詞用時(shí)經(jīng)常和介詞to連用,表示 “總計(jì), 等于”, amuse是“使愉快”,approach可用作動詞表示“接近”,或作名詞表示“方法,途徑”。該句含義是“我們很驚訝的得知他們的足球隊(duì)曾經(jīng)贏得過冠軍?!?BR> 14.B.分析:steady 和stable是近義詞,都可表示“穩(wěn)定的”, 所以可以相互排除掉。再根據(jù)構(gòu)詞法:plentiful = plenti(y) + ful 判斷B的含義是“大量的”。借助句意“在這個(gè)國家里有大量的廉價(jià)勞動力”判斷B最合適。
15.D.分析:crucial“至關(guān)緊要的”和 urgent“緊急的”含義最接近。該句句意是“任何經(jīng)濟(jì)體系所面臨的最至關(guān)緊要的的問題是如何使用它稀少的資源”。Puzzling adj.(使)迷惑的, (使)為難的; terrifying adj.使感到恐怖的;
第二部分:閱讀判斷(每題1分,共七分)
閱讀下面這篇短文,短文后列出了七個(gè)句子,請根據(jù)短文的內(nèi)容對每個(gè)句子作出判斷。如果該句提供的是正確信息,請?jiān)诖痤}卡上把A涂黑;如果該句提供的是錯(cuò)誤信息,請?jiān)诖痤}卡上把B涂黑;如果該句的信息文章中沒有提及,請?jiān)诖痤}卡上把C涂黑
Dyslexia
1、A.該題提到數(shù)字的問題,所以注意文章中含有數(shù)字的句子。于是在文章第一段發(fā)現(xiàn)美國有多達(dá)20%的兒童患有讀寫困難癥。問題句中的“one out of five”的意思是“每五個(gè)人中有一個(gè)”,即20%的人。
2、C.問題句說“世界上許多偉大的思想家和科學(xué)家都還有讀寫困難癥。”。利用“偉大的思想家和科學(xué)家”作為答案線索詞,在文章第2段的第3句找到答案相關(guān)句。但該句僅提到愛因斯坦和愛迪生為讀寫困難癥患者,并未講有許多科學(xué)家和思想家也有這種情況。
3、A.利用“the first cases”作為答案線索詞,于是在第2段發(fā)現(xiàn)“Dyslexia was first recognized…”,該句說歐洲和美國在80多年以前首次發(fā)現(xiàn)讀寫困難癥患者。
4、B. 注意含有“the left side of the brain/the right side of the brain”的句子。于是我們發(fā)現(xiàn)答案相關(guān)句說患讀寫困難癥的人的右腦比左腦大。
5、A.注意文章中含有“the left handed/the right handed”的句子。于是找到答案相關(guān)句“research has showed that…”,該句說有研究表明男人比女人更易患讀寫困難癥,慣用左手者比慣用右手者更易患讀寫困難癥,據(jù)此我們可以推斷該句子是正確的。
6、C.文章中根本就沒有提到“母親及母親的不良習(xí)慣”,且文章說讀寫困難的成因尚不清楚。
7、A.利用“intelligent 和creative”,我們在文章最后一句話找到答案相關(guān)句,該句說解決了語言方面的問題之后,得過讀寫困難癥的人往往表現(xiàn)出超人的智慧和創(chuàng)造力。
第三部分:概括大意與完成句子 (每題1分,共8分)
閱讀下面這篇短文,短文后有2項(xiàng)測試任務(wù):(1)1——4 題要求從所給的6個(gè)選項(xiàng)中為第2——5 段每段選擇1個(gè)正確的小標(biāo)題;(2)第5——8題要求從所給的6個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選擇4個(gè)正確的選項(xiàng),分別完成每個(gè)句子。請將答案涂在答題卡相應(yīng)的位置上。
More Than 8 Hours Sleep Too Much of a Good Thing
1. E: Investigators ……found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight appear to have more trouble falling, than……該句回應(yīng)了文章的主題—睡眠時(shí)間太長不是好事;對應(yīng)被選項(xiàng)發(fā)現(xiàn)只有E和F與這個(gè)內(nèi)容有關(guān)系,但段落最后一句中又提到了睡眠不足的人的問題,因此判斷E是答案(睡眠長和睡眠短的人所面臨的睡眠問題)。
2.B.分析:段落的結(jié)構(gòu)—— Previous studies have shown the potential dangers of chronic shortages of sleep一for instance……表明了該段的中心是講述“長期睡眠不足的潛在危險(xiǎn)”
3. A. 分析:對于該段落答案的選擇具有一定的迷惑性,A和F容易相互成為干擾項(xiàng),但由于段落中提到的“睡眠問題”是屬于問卷上要回答的內(nèi)容,是和Keprike的直接研究有關(guān),所以判斷A是答案。同時(shí)猜測F可能是干擾項(xiàng)
4. D: 段落中出現(xiàn)的Kripke found, Kripke noted和he added表明“Kripke的觀點(diǎn)和態(tài)度應(yīng)該是該段的中心”,對比被選項(xiàng)排除C(段落中沒有出現(xiàn)批評的話語)和F(段落中沒有具體提到睡眠問題的表現(xiàn)形式),而段落最后第2句提到了克服失眠的方法—少花時(shí)間在床上,與D呼應(yīng)。
5.F.分析:根據(jù)搭配結(jié)構(gòu)need to do sth.判斷所有選項(xiàng)都在語法上合適。借助搭配句意:“為了獲得晚上好的休息,人們沒有必要……”判斷F(睡眠超過8小時(shí))。
6.E.分析:借助搭配句意:“睡眠時(shí)間長的人根據(jù)報(bào)道更有可能……”,并結(jié)合文章主題—睡眠時(shí)間長不是好事情,判斷E合適。也可借助文章中的相關(guān)內(nèi)容(利用題干中的Long sleepers和more likely 作為答案線索):KriDke found that people who slept between 9 and 10 hours each night were more likely to report experiencing each sleep problem than people who slept 8 hours.
7. A. 分析:借助搭配句意:“其中的一個(gè)睡眠問題是在午夜醒來,不能……”,直接判斷A(再次入睡)合適。
8. C.分析:借助搭配句意:“一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示那些習(xí)慣性每晚……的人有更高的死亡風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。”
第四部分:閱讀理解(每題3分,共45分)
下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道題,每道題后面有4個(gè)選項(xiàng)。請仔細(xì)閱讀短文并根據(jù)短文回答其后面的問題,從4個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選擇1個(gè)答案涂在答題卡相應(yīng)的位置上。
第1篇
Storms Sink Ships
1. A 該題問的是:在兩次渡船失事中已發(fā)現(xiàn)多少人死了?第一段第一個(gè)句子說到“救援人員已經(jīng)找到了在盂加拉國的兩次渡船失事中的130多人的尸體”。當(dāng)然,實(shí)際的死亡人數(shù)還要高。
2? C.該題問的是:這兩次渡船失事發(fā)生在什么時(shí)候?這是一道推理題。文章中沒有一個(gè)句子直接地提供了這方面的信息。但是第三段間接地傳遞了這方面的信崽:政府自此后禁止所有的渡船和其他船只在四五月的暴風(fēng)季節(jié)夜航。
3? D. 該題問的是:渡船MV Mitali設(shè)計(jì)載客量是多少?答案在第四段的第二句:把大約400個(gè)旅客裝進(jìn)了只能容納300個(gè)旅客的空間。
4 D. 該題問的是:官員們解釋船只失事的原因是什么?倒數(shù)第三段說到了缺乏安全措施
5.C.該題問的是: 下面有關(guān)這兩次渡船失事的說法哪種是錯(cuò)的?第5段有這樣一句話:沒有人真正知道當(dāng)時(shí)有多少人在船上,也不知道有多少人還活著,第6段是這么說的:盂加拉國的渡船不是總能留下乘客的名單的,使得確認(rèn)船上確切的人數(shù)很困難。
第2篇
Stress Level Tied to Education Level
1. B 從文章題目便可得知,一個(gè)人的緊張程度與其受教育的程度掛鉤,而受教育的程
度又直接影響一個(gè)人的社會地位。因此,文章第三段提到,一個(gè)人的社會地位決定了
其每日所面臨的問題和處理這些問題的能力。由此可見,緊張程度與社會地位密切相
關(guān)。
2. A 文章第四段提到,研究人員對全國抽樣的1 031名成人連續(xù)八天每天進(jìn)行采訪。
3. D 從文章第四段可以得知,調(diào)查對象學(xué)歷越高,自己所報(bào)告的緊張?zhí)鞌?shù)便越多。
4. A 文章第五段提到,一個(gè)人的社會地位越低,緊張對其健康造成的危害也就越大。
5. C 文章最后兩段提到,受教育程度越低者所報(bào)告緊張?zhí)鞌?shù)越少的原因有可能是他們
對緊張因素己司空見慣,視其為生活的一部分,而不是什么特別值得注意的。
第3篇
Late-night drinking
1.C.分析:利用題干中的核心結(jié)構(gòu)(也是特殊結(jié)構(gòu))作為答案線索,這樣找到答案相關(guān)句
Coffee lovers beware(謹(jǐn)慎)。 Having a quick “ pick-me-up” cup of coffee late in the day will play havoc with you sleep. (暗示咖啡影響睡眠) As well as being a stimulant(刺激物)(直接揭示答案), caffeine interrupts the flow of melatonin(褪黑激素),the brain hormone(激素)that send people into a sleep.
2 C.分析:利用題干中的核心詞caffeine,作為答案線索,這樣發(fā)現(xiàn)答案相關(guān)句:But researchers in Israel have found that caffeinated (caffeine的家族詞匯)coffee halves the body's levels of this sleep hormone(根據(jù)halves這個(gè)詞的使用判斷C是答案。)
3.A.分析:該題考察判斷指定段落的大意。
Lotan Shilo and a team at the Sapir Medical Center in Tel Aviv University found that six volunteers slept less well after a cup of caffeinated coffee than after drinking the same amount of decaf. (概括句,直接與問題相關(guān))On average, subjects slept 336 minutes per night after drinking caffeinated coffee, (when they are)compared with 415 minutes after decaf .They also took half an hour to drop off (睡著)——twice as long as usual——and jigged around in bed (輾轉(zhuǎn)反側(cè))twice as much……(具體例子用以證明前面概括句中的觀點(diǎn))
4 D.分析:注意到備選項(xiàng)都是涉及到細(xì)節(jié)內(nèi)容,因此在指定段落中一一進(jìn)行查找和確認(rèn)。同時(shí)注意每個(gè)備選項(xiàng)中的核心詞/短語。The results suggest that melatonin concentrations in caffeine drinkers were half those in decaf drinkers (該句句意表明B的說法錯(cuò)誤)。 In a paper accepted for publication in Sleep Medicine, the researchers suggest that caffeine blocks production of the enzyme that drives melatonin production(該句句意表明A和C的說法錯(cuò)誤)。
5 B.分析:該題涉及到文章主題,首先把四個(gè)備選項(xiàng)一一進(jìn)行分析比較,然后首先把剩下的文章最后內(nèi)容看完:Because it can take many hours to eliminate caffeine from the body, Ohayon recommends that coffee lovers switch to decaf after lunch.(從該句中可以推導(dǎo)出B的內(nèi)容)
第五部分:補(bǔ)全短文(每題2分,共10分)
1.D本段講的是手臂的動作。已知的兩個(gè)句子是對手臂在具體情況下具體動作的描述。
從所處的位置上看,用以補(bǔ)充的句子應(yīng)該是對手臂動作的概括性描述。D符合條件。
2.C這個(gè)位置的前后兩個(gè)句子都是對手臂在具體情況下具體動作的描述。用以補(bǔ)充的句
子也應(yīng)該如此。C講的是開朗的人和沉默寡言的人手臂的動作,符合條件。
3.F本段前兩旬講在哪種情況下不能歪頭。F講的是應(yīng)該歪一點(diǎn)頭的情況,恰好與前面構(gòu)
成對比。
4.A本段講身體姿勢。填充句后一個(gè)句子提到“This(這)”會使呼吸更加困難,“This”
顯然指的是一種不太好的身體姿勢,A與此相吻合。
5.E本段講嘴的動作。填充旬的上一個(gè)句子談到,如果想要抑制自己,使自己不發(fā)火,可
以將嘴唇收攏。但事實(shí)上,這樣做別人仍能看出自己不高興,也就是E的內(nèi)容。

11.B.空格處需要副詞,句意上選擇“每天”。
12.D.“營養(yǎng)”是不可數(shù)名詞,“卡里拉(熱量單位)”是可數(shù)名詞,所以排除A和C.而for在這里是表示關(guān)聯(lián)或聯(lián)系 . 如: took two steps back for every step forward.(每前進(jìn)一步向后退兩步)
