2024-2025学年（上）驻马店九年级质量检测英语

1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

Do you have difficulty falling asleep at night? If so, here is a piece of advice for you: Listen to some soft music.

Scientists have found that soft music can help to improve our sleep. This works for sleepers of all ages and even for those with sleeping problems. Soft music can help us fall asleep faster, wake up less during the night and feel more rested in the morning. You may not notice the effects overnight, though. 1. It could take at least three weeks to see improvements.

2.为什么轻音乐能助于我们睡得更好？ The reasons aren’t clear yet. It may have something to do with the relaxing effect of a good song. Music can have real physical effects, too. Soft music can lower our heart rate and slow down our breathing. 3.这对我们入睡有好处。

Scientists say that for most people, music that has 70 beats(节拍) per minute works best. Classical, jazz and folk music are usually more effective than other musical styles. Familiar songs work well, too. You may need to experiment to make your own playlists. If you are not sure how many beats a song has in a minute, you may find it out on www.songbpm.com. And remember to get the volume(音量) right. Make sure the final piece is the one that slowly fades out(减弱), 4. if you don’t want to be woken up by the sudden silence.

It’s very important to get enough high-quality sleep. 5. Before you go to bed tonight, play some soft music. Then, just prepare to be rocked off to dreamland!

26、Weighing too much can damage your health, and obesity (肥胖) is a growing problem for both kids and adults around the world. Sleep might be one answer to the problem. A new study has found that elementary school students who slept too little were more likely to gain pounds.

Past studies have shown a link between sleeping less and weighing more, but scientists have had a tough time determining “which came first, the chicken or the egg,” says Julie C. Lumeng of the university of Michigan in Ann Arbor. In other words, it hasn’t been clear whether kids who weigh too much have trouble sleeping, or whether sleeping less leads to weight gain. Both scenarios (可能出现的情况) seemed equally possible.

To get a better idea of which causes which, Lumeng and her colleagues interviewed the parents of 785 third graders from around the United States. The parents answered questions about how well their kids slept that year. Three years later, the parents answered the same questions. By sixth grade, 18 percent of kids involved in the study were obese.

The scientists found no relationship between weight and the students’ race or gender. It also didn’t matter how strict their parents were, or whether they were boys or girls. Obesity struck all of these groups equally. Instead, sleep seemed to be the key factor. Over the three years of study, the children averaged a healthy 9.5 hours of sleep a night. Some kids, however, slept a lot more or less than others.

For the sixth graders, every hour of sleep above the 9.5 houraverage was linked to a 20 percent lower risk of being obese. Sleep appeared doubly important for the third graders. Every extra hour of sleep they got was linked to a 40 percent drop in obesity.

【1】What does the underlined sentence on paragraph 2 imply?

A．Scientists have found the exact causes of children’s obesity.

B．There is always something difficult to understand through theory

C．The cause-effect relationship between weight and sleep isn’t clear.

D．A person’s weight has something to do with the amount of his sleep.

【2】What did the interview find out?

A．9. 5 hours of sleep a night is enough for children.

B．The more a child sleeps, the healthier he will be.

C．Sixth graders need much more sleep than third graders.

D．One’s race or gender has nothing to do with his weight.

【3】How does the author develop the passage?

A．By listing figures.

B．By comparing different opinions.

C．By conducting a survey.

D．By telling stories.

【4】According to the passage, it’s clear that __________.

A．sleep might be only answer to the problem of obesity

B．being obese has something to do with their race or gender

C．it’s more important for third graders to have over 9.5 hours of sleep than sixth graders

D．the more people sleep, the less likely they will gain pounds

【5】What is the suitable title for the passage?

A．The benefits of enough sleep for children.

B．Sleeping less increases the risk of obesity.

C．Which comes first, little sleep or obesity.

D．How many hours of sleep do children need?
