21、Schools across Britain are being asked to take part in a research project known as Teensleep to stagger (错开) their start times to suit the different biological clocks of children, with 10-year-olds starting at 9 am and 15-year-olds starting at 10 am. Scientists believe that the body’s circadian rhythm (生理节律), which determines sleep-wake patterns over 24-hour periods, varies with a child’s age and that an earlier school start time for all students is not in the best interests of older children. “The research project will sign up 100 schools as part of the biggest study yet into the role that school start times play in the health of students,” said Paul Kelley of the University of Oxford.
“The natural change in the biological clock to later in the 24-hour cycle is particularly obvious in the 14 to 24 age group. The change in the biological clock continues in later middle age, when people usually go back to the naturally earlier start time they felt comfortable with when they were 10-year-old children,” Dr Kelley said.
“By the time you are 18, 19 or 20 you are suffering on average two hours of sleep loss a day and that is increasing so that at the end of the week you have suffered 10 hours of sleep loss. It has a hugely damaging impact on the body,” Dr Kelley told the Seience Festival in Bradford.
“Students lose more sleep than doctors working a 24-hour shift during every school or university week... Schools are starting at any time they choose. There is no justification and no study suggesting that starting earlier is better,” he said. “Most people wake up to alarms because they don’t naturally wake up at the time they go to work, so we are a sleep-deprived (睡眠不足) society and this age group, 14 to 24, is more deprived than any other group of society,” he added.
【1】What’s the aim of the research project?
A．To determine the sleep hours of children.
B．To suit the different biological clocks of children.
C．To change the start times of the schools across Britain.
D．To study the influence of school times on students’ health.
【2】Which of the following statements might Dr. Kelley agree with?
A．24-year-olds start school the latest.
B．The older students are, the later they start school.
C．The change in the biological clock doesn’t happen in later middle age.
D．An earlier start time suits both the later middle age group and 10-year-olds.
【3】What has a great bad influence on the body?
A．Work on weekends.
B．The pressure of study.
C．More and more sleep loss.
D．The earlier school start time.
【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．Schools always start earlier.
B．Students are most sleep-deprived.
C．Students are more stressed than doctors.
D．Sleep deprivation has become a worldwide problem.
22、A student had to get his long hair cut off in a middle school in GuangDong Province. It was talked a lot among teachers and students.
In fact, all schools have their own rules. In most schools, boy students are not allowed to have long hair while girls are not allowed to dye their hair. And most school rules say that students should wear their school uniforms at school. And students must obey these rules so that they can get healthy development at school.
But some students have disagreements. They think that boy students having long hair doesn't mean that they are not good students. They want to show their own personality. They think that they would look cool too if they had long hair and the hairstyles like their favorite stars.
A girl student thought that she would look much more beautiful if she had brown hair. So she had her dark hair dyed brown one day. When she went back to school the next day, the teacher was very angry with her. She said that she worked hard at her lessons and did well in every subject. She just didn't know why the teacher didn't allow her to dye her hair while women teachers can.
It is not wrong for teenagers to love stars' hairstyles or wear their favorite clothes. However, a school has its own rules for all the students to obey so that the school can be in good order. Students should not break the rules at school.
【1】What aren't boy students allowed to do in most middle schools according to this passage?
A．To have long hair.
B．To wear uniforms.
C．To like famous stars.
D．To show their own personalities.
【2】Why did the girl make her hair brown?
A．Because she wanted to be cool.
B．Because she thought that she would look much more beautiful.
C．Because she wanted to make her teacher angry.
D．Because women teachers dyed their hair.
【3】What does the writer think of these school rules?
A．The students should be against them.
B．They are bad for students.
C．They can make schools in good order.
D．They can't make students grow healthily.
【4】What is the passage mainly about?
A．Hair styles and clothes.
B．Schoolboys and schoolgirls.
C．Students and famous stars.
D．School rules.
23、 On New Year’s Eves, I would reflect on my best days of the year. Sometimes they were the days I expected. Parties, vacations, weddings. But more often, the real best days weren’t the obvious ones. They were marked by the ordinary: a long conversation with a friend or an unexpected visitor.
The problem with these best days was that they went by without me realizing how special they were. Could I find a way to know when the best days were coming and really feel them as they happened?
So I tried to declare a best day in advance. Even if it felt ridiculous, this effort to make what seemed to be common feel extraordinary usually worked. Staying up chatting until late at night or going for a weekend run through a park in the sunshine felt as wonderful as I had hoped it would. Mundane experiences felt different when I marked them as such.
Marking experiences this way is one key to happiness, said Dr. Robert Waldinger, a psychiatrist, the director of the Harvard Happiness Study. “Often we’ll remember the things that more emotionally loaded as opposed to the neutral, the flat, the boring. That’s why you probably can’t remember what you had for dinner last Monday — unless it was something.”
Looking back at 2021, I realized that I was too busy following the news and wishing my would go back to normal. But lately I’ve found the unhappiness during the pandemic made unhappy before, too. The loneliness that I worried at times might become a permanent area of adulthood. They were excuses I made as I waited for something to change.
We can’t wait anymore. The stress we feel now isn’t going to magically disappear, just as it never would have before the pandemic. There’s only one thing we can control: How are we going to live in it? Why not try to have a best day right now, maybe even tonight? So I’m going to go back to my practice of declaring a best day in advance. I’ll start by declaring today or tomorrow or next Monday one of the best days of 2022. I’ll decide to do something I enjoy — it could be as simple as having some friends over or going for a walk.
【1】What does the underlined word “Mundane” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．specific
B．ordinary
C．occasional
D．special
【2】Why does the author mention the words from Dr. Robert Waldinger?
A．To prove what the author tried to do was right.
B．To spread the knowledge about the happiness study.
C．To prove we can’t remember the boring and flat information.
D．To convince readers of the importance of the happiness study.
【3】According to the passage, what attitude should the author have towards negative emotions during the pandemic?
A．Believe these emotions will disappear in the future.
B．Realize these emotions are special in this period.
C．Believe these emotions will not influence his life.
D．Realize these emotions exist in other periods too.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?
A．You Can Wait For the Best Day.
B．You Can Make Any Day the Best Day.
C．You Can Own the Emotionally Best Day.
D．You Can Recall the Best Day.

Nick was new, so he didn’t have many friends. One day when he sat by himself at lunch, the headmaster walked in and announced that it was the basketball season, so they needed to practice after school till 6. Nick smiled. He loved playing basketball.
Later that day it was time to go to the first practice of the season. There were other guys and they all sat together talking, but Nick just sat there and waited. “Alright boys! Line up and tell me your names,” the coach demanded. “Ricky, Derick, Josh, Dan, Nick.” they answered, one after another. Practice went on and the coach began to try out the boys. Ricky and his friends did really good. But the coach ran out of time before he could try out Nick.
The next day, Ricky and his friends came up to Nick and told him he wasn’t good enough though they had never seen him play. Nick said nothing. Soon enough it was time for Nick to try out. “We will start with free throws,” the coach said. Nick stood on the free throw line and then shot. He didn’t miss one shot. The boys were amazed. Ricky was mad because they were all giving the attention to Nick. The coach informed Nick that he made the team. All the boys were congratulating him.
Nick was happy that he was on the team and it was a good way to make friends. Ricky just stood there and looked at him in anger. Ricky always got the attention but now Nick did because he’s an amazing player. The next day came and Nick went to lunch. He sat by himself and the next thing he knew was that the table he was sitting at was filled with all the basketball players except Ricky.
Soon enough it was time for their first game. The game was a close one ... There were 5 seconds left and Ricky had the ball. Everyone was blocked but Nick was open. “I'm open. I’m open,” Nick said over and over.
