21、A teacher let her class play a game. The teacher told each child to bring a bag with some potatoes. Each potato would be given a name of a person that the child hated, so the number of potatoes in his/her bag would depend on the number of people the child hated.

Then the teacher said,” This is the same when you carry your hate for somebody inside your heart. The smell of hate will pollute your heart and you will carry it with you wherever you go.

22、 Every new parent knows that rocking can calm that uneasy baby when it’s time to take a nap. But the benefits of gentle movement may go beyond the baby stage. Because two new studies show that rocking also helps grown-ups, both human and mouse, get a good night’s sleep.
What should be no surprise is that movement can calm someone. Think of how many times you’ve fallen asleep on a train. But can motion really cause a nap, and make for a deeper sleep?
To find out, researchers invited 18 healthy volunteers for a sleepover. “So they came to the lab and slept one time on the motionless, normal bed. And one night where they got rocked.” said Aurore Perrault, a sleep researcher at the University of Geneva in Switzerland. “And what we find is that when compared to a motionless night, a whole night of rocking sleep has a beneficial effect not only on sleep beginning but also on sleep continuity. “Subjects who were rocked also did better on a memory test the next morning than the stiller sleepers.
In the second study, Kompotis, a student at the University of Lausanne, rocked a group of mice. “Whether rocking affects sleep in other species was never before discussed. So the main questions for our study were whether rocking affects sleep in mice and what is the possible system? ”
Kompotis placed the mouse cages on a platform that moved from side to side. Though mice were rocked four times faster than their human counterparts—a frequency of one back-and-forth per second, or 1 Hertz, worked best—the results were strikingly similar. “During rocking at 1 Hertz, time spent asleep increased, and mice fell asleep twice as fast as at still condition.” However, additional studies could allow the researchers to identify a new aim for treating sleep disorders, including insomnia (失眠).
If you want a good night’s sleep, you might think about adding a little swing to your night-time routine.
【1】What’s the purpose of the second study in the passage?
A.To do research on the sleep system of other species.
B.To see whether rocking affects sleep of other species.
C.To discuss in which case rocking affects baby’s sleep.
D.To study the influence of rocking on sleep disorders.
【2】What do we know about the mice in Paragraph 5?
A.Their sleeping time went up when rocked at 1 Hertz.
B.Their sleep disorder including insomnia was treated.
C.When rocked, they fell asleep four times faster than at still condition.
D.When rocked, they slept faster than their human counterparts.
【3】What’s the best title of the passage?
A.Rocking Helps Grown-ups Sleep Too.
B.Deep Sleep Needs the Constant Swing.
C.Rocking Greatly Affects Deep Sleep.
D.Rocking Can Treat Sleep Disorders.
23、The US will seek to expand its own oil production in an attempt to reduce dependence on imported oil and bring down fuel prices, President Obama says. New contracts for exploration will be signed in non-protected areas of Alaska and in the Gulf of Mexico.
In his weekly speech, the President insisted the US could reduce its need for imported oil and improve safety. Using his speech to tell Americans that he understood their concerns about rising prices, President Obama focused particularly on the price of fuel, which has risen in recent months.
US consumers have historically enjoyed cheap fuel, but have seen prices rise in recent months even though US oil production in 2010 reached its highest level for seven years.
Although the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 was serious, Mr. Obama said the Gulf remained a key part of the country’s future energy supply.
The President’s proposals (议案) come after Republicans (共和党人) introduced a series of proposals that would expand and speed up oil and gas production.
The White House has criticized the Republican proposals for safety reasons, but Mr. Obama was clear in his speech that he felt safety and environmental standards could be maintained even though production might rise.
“I believe that we should continue to expand oil production in America — even as we increase safety and environmental standards,” he said.
“As a nation, we should be investing in the clean, renewable sources of energy that are the solution to high gas prices.”
Mr. Obama has previously called for a step-change in energy policy, saying the US must move towards getting 80% of its electricity from clean energy sources by 2035.
【1】Which of the following is NOT included in Mr. Obama’s speech?
A. The reason for the rising oil prices.
B. Improving safety standards.
C. The dependence on imported oil.
D. Expanding oil production.
【2】Mr. Obama thinks the Republican proposals are ______.
A. not safe enough B. not environmentally friendly
C. practical D. clear
【3】What can we learn from the text?
A. The US has got most of its electricity from clean energy.
B. US oil production is too small to keep the present low fuel prices.
C. The US produced the most oil in 2010 in its history.
D. The Gulf is still important in energy supply in spite of the oil spill in 2010.
【4】Which of the following can serve as the title?
A. Obama: clean, renewable sources of energy are the solution to high gas prices
B. Obama: US will import less oil to improve safety and environmental standards
C. Obama: the time of high fuel prices will be gone
D. Obama: US will seek oil in Alaska and Gulf of Mexico
