26、 We already know that a lack of sleep will actually prevent your brain from being able to make new memories. You end up feeling as though you’re amnesiac.
A lack of sleep will lead to an increased development of a protein in the brain connected with Alzheimer’s disease because it is during deep sleep at night that a system within the brain starts to wash away this protein. So if you’re not getting enough sleep each and every night, more of that Alzheimer’s-related protein will build up. The more protein that builds up, the greater your risk of developing Alzheimer will be in later life.
What are the effects of the lack of sleep on the body? We know that a lack of sleep impacts your immune system(免疫系统).After just one night of four to five hours of sleep, there is a 70%reduction in immune cells called natural killer cells. And that’s the reason that short sleep predicts your risk for developing many forms of cancer.
In fact, the link between a lack of sleep and cancer is now so strong that recently the World Health Organization decided to classify any form of nighttime shift work as a probable cause of cancer. It is during deep sleep at night that your heart rate drops, your blood pressure goes down. If you’re not getting enough sleep, your blood pressure rises. If you’re getting six hours of sleep or less, you’ll have a 200%increased risk of having a deadly heart attack or stroke in your lifetime.
There is a global experiment that is performed on 1.6 billion people twice a year and it’s called daylight savings time. And we know that in the spring, when we lose one hour of sleep, we see a 24%increase in heart attacks the following day.
Another question, perhaps, is what is the recycle rate of a human being? How long can we actually last without sleep before we start to see worsening in your brain function? And the answer seems to be about 16 hours of wakefulness. Once you get past 16 hours of being awake, that’s when we start to see mental and physical damages in the body. We know that after you’ve been awake for 19 or 20 hours, your mental capacity(心智能力)is so damaged that you would be as slow as someone who was drunk. So if you were to ask me what is the recycle rate of a human being, it does seem to be about 16 hours and we need about eight hours of sleep to repair the damage of wakefulness.
【1】The underlined word “amnesiac” in Paragraph 1 probably means
A.sleepy B.tolerant C.relieved D.forgetful
【2】According to the article, we can infer that_
A.the more you sleep, the more protein there will be
B.you’re more likely to suffer heart attacks in the spring
C.deep sleep at night protects you from a harmful protein
D.you’ll develop many forms of cancer due to short sleep
【3】When you’re awake over 16 hours, .
A.your brain won’t function in a proper way B.your brain needs at least 8 hours to recover
C.you must have drunk large amounts of wine D.you walk as slowly as the physically disabled
【4】What is the best title for the passage?
A.Sleeping sickness kills B.Enough sleep counts
C.Less sleep causes cancer D.Sleep is necessary for man
27、 If you grow up in America, you must know this little foodie(美食家) poem, “You scream! I scream! We all scream for ice cream!” For most Americans, the phrase “ice cream” brings out memories of summer. Ice cream is the oldest fashioned treat, and it has an ancient history.
The emperors of the Tang Dynasty are believed to have been the first to eat “a frozen milk-like dessert”, which was made with milk that was heated with flour. Later, camphor(樟脑) was added to improve the taste.
In Medieval Times, Arabs enjoyed an icy drink called sherbet(冰冻果子露). This cold drink often went with fruits. Over time, the drink became popular with the European upper class. Italians are said to have learned this drink-making skill, with the French following soon after.
The 17th century saw ice drinks made into frozen desserts. With sugar added, sorbet(雪酪) was created. Antonio Latini is the first person to create a milk-based sorbet, which is considered as the first “official” ice cream.
It is impossible to say how exactly ice cream reached America, but it probably arrived with European settlers in the early 1700’s. In 1790, the first ice cream store opened in New York. During the summer of the same year, our first president, George Washington, is said to have spent $200 to satisfy his thirst for the lovely treat. The Lincolns had a taste for ice cream. Abraham Lincoln’s wife Mary Todd often hosted “strawberry parties” for friends. Fresh strawberries were served with cake and ice cream.
Ice cream has become one of the most popular desserts in America. Apple pie might be the most traditionally American dessert, but what is served as its most popular close friend? Vanilla (香草) ice cream, of course! This creamy iced treat has strongly planted itself in the hearts of foodies across America.
【1】Why does the writer mention the poem at the beginning of the passage?
A.To support his view. B.To advertise ice cream.
C.To introduce the topic. D.To explain why ice cream is popular.
【2】Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.Camphor brought a better taste to the milk-like dessert.
B.In America, apple pies are usually served with strawberry ice cream.
C.Sugar was added to frozen desserts in the 17th century.
D.Sherbet was often mixed with fruits
【3】Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?
A.The popularity of Ice Cream B.Different Types of Ice Cream
C.Apple Pie’s Close Friend D.The History of Ice Cream
28、 Traveling with kids is 90 percent reminding yourself to live in the moment and 10 percent making up your mind to never again leave your house.
I have an uncanny ability to forget this as soon as we return home from a trip and I've finished washing piles of dirty clothes in our luggage and cleaning all the messy caused by the kids. Extremely tired and annoyed, I would actually begin to miss the place we just left!
Family travel is like childbirth, I suppose. Painful, loud, messy, sort of awful, actually, but also wonderful. And you remember only the wonderful—until you’re back on a plane and your kids are fighting over who gets the aisle seat. Then you remember the bad stuff.
Last weekend, my kids and I flew to Texas for a trip we would have nothing to complain(抱怨) about—big hotel, wonderful view.
And yet—we found things to complain about. The pool was bigger in that other hotel! Why do you get to shower first? They call this coffee?! Luckily, I’ve learned to put my metaphorical coat of armor (盔甲) on as soon as we land somewhere, and it forces complaints to bounce off me and land in a pile at my feet.
For three days, genuine fun was had and annoying complaints were heard and ignored. Until it was time to catch a plane and fly home.
Unfortunately, our flight was canceled. We spent hours finding a hotel room. We hit the hotel pool before bed and swam well into the night, my kids making up songs and laughing so hard at their silly lyrics (歌词) and their crazy good fortune to be swimming at 10: 30 on a school night.
And that was when it hit me that family travel is all those things I said before but it’s also a lot more. It’s taking your kids to parts of the world that will open their eyes and finding that actually, yours need opening too. It’s remembering that joy and memories are where you make them, not where you find them.
【1】The underlined word “uncanny” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to .
A.unknown. B.uncertain.
C.unexpected. D.unusual.
【2】According to the passage, family travel is like childbirth in that .
A.they both cause financial trouble and pain.
B.they are both hard as well as rewarding.
C.childhood memories come flooding back when they travel.
D.both of them need many preparations.
【3】By saying “I’ve learned to put my metaphorical coat of armor on” in Paragraph 5, the author means that_ .
A.she tries to deal with the complaints more wisely and properly.
B.she turns those annoying complaints into a means to educate kids.
C.she has improved her language skills when handling the complaints.
D.she has succeeded in escaping kids’ fighting thanks to the armor.
【4】From the author’s experience in the passage, we can NOT learn that .
A.family vacation benefits her kids as well as her.
B.joy and memories should be created rather than discovered.
C.the most unforgettable memory for her is about the complaints.
D.she has to spend some time on housework after the family vacation.
29、 A new coffee culture is forming in and around San Francisco, California. A growing number of coffeehouses there are barring paper cups. Instead, they are using glass containers or creating “bring your own cup” policies. The movement started among neighborhood cafes in an effort to reduce waste. Now it is gaining support from large businesses in the city—and around the country.
Famous cook Dominique Crenn is opening a cafe in San Francisco next year that will not use to-gabags, throw-away coffee cups or any plastic. Diners who plan to buy a to-go drink from boutique Crenn will be asked to bring their own coffee cups, a spokeswoman said.
The Blue Bottle coffeehouse company uses about 15,000 to-go cups each month at its 70 shops across the U.S. The company recently said it wants to “show our guests and the world that we can get rid of disposable (一次性的) cups”.
Blue Bottle plans to stop using paper cups at two of its stores next year. The move is part of a promise to produce “zero waste” by the end of next year.
Larger coffee and fast-food businesses around the U. S. are feeling a sense of urgency (紧急) to be more environmentally friendly, said Bridget Croke. She is with the New York-based investment company Closed Loop Partners. It is working with Starbucks and McDonald’s to develop a substitute (替代品) for the disposable coffee cup.
Today’s to-go cups for hot drinks are not only made from paper, they also have plastic to prevent leaking. This makes them hard to recycle, Croke said. She admitted that it is not likely that large national food and drink companies will stop using disposable cups totally or ask all customers to bring their own.
So, her company is looking for other solutions. In partnership with Closed Loop, Starbucks and McDonald’s paid $10 million to develop the “single-use cup of the future”. The result is expected to be recyclable and to break down naturally.
【1】What does the underlined word“barring”in the first paragraph mean?
A.Using. B.Inventing. C.Improving. D.Banning.
【2】What do boutique Crenn and Blue Bottle have in common?
A.They will desert throw-away cups.
B.They’ve decided to improve service.
C.They want to attract more customers.
D.They will open some new coffee shops.
【3】Why are traditional to-go cups bad for the environment?
A.They are made from wood.
B.They are needed in great quantity.
C.The hard to recycle.
D.They encourage people to drink more coffee.
【4】What do Starbucks and McDonald’s aim to do in the future?
A.Refuse to offer cups to consumers.
B.Invent environmentally friendly cups.
C.Run together with another company.
D.Spend a lot on the development of new coffee.

32、阅读短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要，
Recently, Children should eat their meals and snacks at home during the outbreak of the covid-19 （新冠病毒）,which means not only adding a new stress （压力）for parents （eg, a lot more cooking!）, but also providing a new chance for parents to teach children cooking skills.
Helping children develop an interest in cooking when they're young can help them have the valuable life skill that they can carry into adulthood. Allowing children to help in the kitchen encourages them to learn where food comes from, and teaches them about nutrition and food safety （e.g., the importance of washing fresh produce with clean water, or hand-washing before and after helping in the kitchen）. Doing so may also help children overcome picky eating by becoming more accepting of new foods. What's more, cooking and baking can be fun ways to spend time while bonding with family.
The key is finding tasks that suit children's age and ability, while still guiding and monitoring their progress. Activities that may attract a preschooler's interest in cooking include helping to wash fruits and vegetables and add toppings to a pizza. Older children can be given tasks such as measuring ingredients into cups or beating eggs. Proper cooking skills to introduce to the children aged between 8 and 10 include planning a family meal or following a simple recipe （食谱）.By ages 10 to 12} once able to follow kitchen safety rules, many children can prepare more recipes, including meatballs, cookies and cupcakes.
Getting children to take part in kitchen activities may require patience as they learn. That's why it's helpful to have some extra time at home.
