A
Have you ever felt your mind falling into disorder after a sleepless night? You couldn't come up with an original thought no matter how hard you tried.
You were probably right if you thought that was caused by a lack of sleep. Dr. Home,a sleep researcher in England, studied 24 college students. One group got their normal eight hours of sleep. The other group didn't get the smallest amount of sleep-they stayed awake all night. The next day, Dr, Home tested the students. He asked them question that required creative and original thinking. One of the questions was "How many uses can a cardboard box be put to?"
The result? The wide-awake students did well on the test. The tired students did poorly.
Research has already shown that tired people can do OK on tests of habitual thinking,like simple addition But Dr. Home tested creative thinking only.
As part of his study, he offered an amount of money as reward to the sleepy students if they did well. But even this encouragement was not enough to help the students conquer their tiredness. They did poorly. Dr. Home believes that the part of the brain where thinking takes place may becomes very tired during waking hours. Sleep may help to repair the brain. "Without any sleep," he emphasizes(强调), "even if you pay closer attention, you can't do better. "
This study gives people something to think about, especially like hospital workers who must stay awake all night and then make quick decisions.
36.It can be known from the text that lack of sleep may _. ( )
A. be a cause of some serious diseases
B. cause one to lose his ability to calculate
C. do harm to one's power of usual thinking
D. weaken one's power of creative thinking
37. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text? ( )
A. Hospital workers can think well although they often stay awake all night.
B. People can not work well without good sleep.
C. Dr. Home's tests are on habitual thinking.
D. Sleep has nothing to do with creativity.
38. The underlined word "conquer" can be replaced by _ ( )
A. take off B. break out C. give off D. get over
39. Why couldn't the reward offered in the study attract the sleepy students? ( )
A. Because they were too tired and too sleepy.
B. Because they did not care for money at all.
C. Because they thought sleep might help to repair the brain.
D. Because they waited for bigger rewards.
B
It's important to learn about protecting environment. Here is 5R rule for us:
1. Reduce
If you want to reduce waste, you should use things wisely. A large number of trees are being cut down to make paper. If everyone uses a little paper carelessly and throw it out, soon we would not have anv trees left. Other things are also being wasted.and DeODle don'tknow what to do with the waste in big cities. So it is necessary to reduce the waste.
2. Reuse
You should always think of reusing the usable things before throwing them out. Give your clothes you do not use or the ones which are too small to the poor. In a family, you may pass on such clothes to younger brothers or sisters.
3. Recycle
Bottles, cans and paper can easily be recycled. By doing so, we save lots of time and money. For example, coke cans are sent to a factOry, where they are smashed flat and melted, and the metal things are made for new coke cans.
4. Recover
When you buy a box of apples, there may be a few rotten apples, you have two choice: one is to throw the whole apples away, or you could cut off the rotten parts and use the good parts.In this way, you are recovering the eatable parts of food.
5. Repair
If one of the legs of your table is broken, you can repair it. If you want to change for better ones, it is better for you to sell the old things or give them to other people who can use them after doing some repair. It is true that North America is a "throw-away" society,but the time has come to change our way of life so that we can protect our environment.
Every one of us should try our best.
40. The "Reduce" rule mainly requires us _ . ( )
A. to use things wisely
B. to cut down many trees
C. to use a lot of paper .
D. to throw away your old things
41. What's the right order of recycling coke cans? ( )
a . collect the used cans b. melt them
c. smashed them flat d. send them to a factory

43. Which is the best way to do with your own broken tables? ( )
A. Throwing them away. B. Repairing them
C. Selling them. D. putting them away.

7．C参考译文：自从我学英语以来差不多有六年了。含有smce的句型：It is+-段时间+ since- - -…。
8．D 参考译文：--玛丽不在乎钱。--我也如此。此题考查倒装句。前句用little，为否定意义，所以后句要用否定形式，……也不，用neither.A只能用于肯定句；B中的too应改成either;C没有这种表达。
9．A参考译文：我一坐下铃声就响了。否定词放句首用倒装。Hardly这部分用过去完成时，when这部分用一般过去时。

16.C参考译文：无论谁犯了错误都要改正。Whoever用于引导主语从句。A引导定语从句，不能在此处做主语；B no matter引导状语从句；D不存在。
17.A 参考译文：--你最近见过莉莉吗？--没有，但是这个周末开会时候我会见到她。进行时表示将来的动作。
18.B参考译文：--结果天气很好，这是我们没有想到的。定语从句。Which代替前边整个一句话。其他词不可以。

Have you ever felt your mind falling into disorder after a sleepless night? You couldn't come up with an original thought no matter how hard you tried.
You were probably right if you thought that was caused by a lack of sleep. Dr. Home,a sleep researcher in England, studied 24 college students. One group got their normal eight hours of sleep. The other group didn't get the smallest amount of sleep-they stayed awake all night. The next day, Dr, Home tested the students. He asked them question that required creative and original thinking. One of the questions was "How many uses can a cardboard box be put to?"
The result? The wide-awake students did well on the test. The tired students did poorly.
Research has already shown that tired people can do OK on tests of habitual thinking,like simple addition But Dr. Home tested creative thinking only.
As part of his study, he offered an amount of money as reward to the sleepy students if they did well. But even this encouragement was not enough to help the students conquer their tiredness. They did poorly. Dr. Home believes that the part of the brain where thinking takes place may becomes very tired during waking hours. Sleep may help to repair the brain. "Without any sleep," he emphasizes(强调), "even if you pay closer attention, you can't do better. "
This study gives people something to think about, especially like hospital workers who must stay awake all night and then make quick decisions.

38. The underlined word "conquer" can be replaced by _ ( )
A. take off B. break out C. give off D. get over
39. Why couldn't the reward offered in the study attract the sleepy students? ( )

B. Because they did not care for money at all.
C. Because they thought sleep might help to repair the brain.

It's important to learn about protecting environment. Here is 5R rule for us:
1. Reduce
If you want to reduce waste, you should use things wisely. A large number of trees are being cut down to make paper. If everyone uses a little paper carelessly and throw it out, soon we would not have anv trees left. Other things are also being wasted.and DeODle don'tknow what to do with the waste in big cities. So it is necessary to reduce the waste.
2. Reuse
You should always think of reusing the usable things before throwing them out. Give your clothes you do not use or the ones which are too small to the poor. In a family, you may pass on such clothes to younger brothers or sisters.
3. Recycle
Bottles, cans and paper can easily be recycled. By doing so, we save lots of time and money. For example, coke cans are sent to a factOry, where they are smashed flat and melted, and the metal things are made for new coke cans.
4. Recover
When you buy a box of apples, there may be a few rotten apples, you have two choice: one is to throw the whole apples away, or you could cut off the rotten parts and use the good parts.In this way, you are recovering the eatable parts of food.
5. Repair
If one of the legs of your table is broken, you can repair it. If you want to change for better ones, it is better for you to sell the old things or give them to other people who can use them after doing some repair. It is true that North America is a "throw-away" society,but the time has come to change our way of life so that we can protect our environment.
Every one of us should try our best.
