21、With around 100 students scheduled to be in that 9 am Monday morning lecture, it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes; it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pyjamas(睡衣). Obviously, students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.
All human beings possess a body clock. Along with other alerting(警报)systems, this governs the sleep/wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour. Typically, the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents, which leads to many students not feeling sleepy until much later in the evenings. This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the“night owl”schedule of sleep.
This is opposed to the“early bird”schedule, and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight. Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings. Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night. Research findings have shown that about 20 percent of people can be classified as“night owls”and only 10 percent can be classified as“early birds”—the other 70 percent are in the middle. Although this is clearly not true for all students, for the ones who are true night owls this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.
【1】 What does the author stress in Paragraph 1?
A. Many students are absent from class.
B. Students are very tired on Monday mornings.
C. Students do not adjust their sleep patterns well.
D. Students are not well prepared for class on Mondays.
【2】Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2?
A. Most students prefer to get up late in the morning.
B. Students don’t sleep well because of alerting systems.
C. One’s body clock governs the sleep/wake cycle independently.
D. Adolescents’delayed sleep/wake cycle isn’t the preferred pattern.
【3】Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “classified”?
A. Criticised. B. Grouped. C. Organised. D. Named.
【4】What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Functions of the body clock.
B. The “night owl” phenomenon.
C. Human beings’ sleep behaviour.
D. The school schedule of “early birds”.

23、 Joanna Cole, whose Magic School Bus series made science both dazzling and goofily fun for generations of children, died on July 12 at age 75. Her death was announced by her publisher, Scholastic. The cause of death was not given.
She originally created Magic School Bus in 1986 with ilustrator Bruce Degen. The core idea of a crew of schoolchildren taking field trips into scientific concepts, bodily parts, into space and back to the age of dinosaurs—and always led by their teacher, the intrepid Ms. Frizzle——eventually spun out into dozens of tie-ins and more than 93 million copies in print, plus a beloved television show that aired for 18 years in more than 100 countries.
In the U. S, the original Magic School Bus TV series was broadcast by PBS for 18 years; in 2017, an updated version was launched in 2017 on Netflix with the first of four specials on the way in August.
The book series won many awards, including an NEA Foundation Award for Outstanding Service to Public Education.
Cole was born in Newark, N. J. in 1944. She said that her inspiration for Ms. Frizzle was her own fifth-grade teacher. Cole worked answering letters to the editor at Newsweek, as a school librarian and as a magazine and children’s book editor before becoming a full-time author herself. Her first title, published in 1971, was Cockroaches.
She observed that there were no other children’s books on the market about roaches already, and decided to leap into the opportunity. As she once told her publisher, Scholastic, “An article in the Wall Street Journal inspired me to do some research... Plus, I had ample time to study that creature in my low budget New York apartment!”
【1】What do we know about Joanna Cole?

C.The schoolchildren only take field trips into scientific concepts.
D.The Magic School Bus has not been adapted for television.
【3】What does the underlined word “intrepid” in paragraph 2 probably mean?

24、 I’m not so sure I like my friends any more. I used to like them — to be honest. We’d have lunch, talk on the phone or exchange e-mails, and they all seemed normal enough. But then came Facebook and I was introduced to a sad fact: many of my friends have dark sides that they had kept from me.
Today my friends show off the more unpleasant aspects of their personalities via Facebook. No longer hidden, they’re thrown in my face like TV commercials — unavoidable and endless advertisements for the worst of their personalities.
Take Fred. If you were to have lunch with him, you’d find him warm, and down-to-earth. Read his Facebook and you realize he’s an unbearable, food-obsessed bore. He’d pause to have a cup of coffee on his way to save a drowning man — and then write about it.
Take Andy. You won’t find a smarter CEO anywhere, but now he’s a CEO without a company to lull. So he plays Mafia Wars on Facebook. He’s doing well — level 731. Thanks to Facebook, I know he’s playing about 18 hours a day. Andy, you’ve run four companies — and this is how you spend your downtime(业余时间)? What happened to golf? What happened to getting another job?
Take Liz. She is positive that the H1N1 vaccine(甲流疫苗) will kill us all and that we should avoid it. And then comes Chris who likes to post at least 20 times a day on every website he can find, so I get to read his thoughts twice, once on Facebook and once on Twitter.
In real life, I don’t see these sides of people. Face to face, my friends show me their best. They’re nice, smart people. But face to Facebook, my friends are like a blind date which goes horribly wrong.
I’m left with a dilemma. Who is my real friend? Is it the Liz I have lunch with or the anti-vaccine lunatic(狂人)on Facebook? Is it the Fred I can grab a sandwich with or the Fred who weeps if he’s at a party and the wine isn’t up to his standards?
【1】What’s Andy probably busy in doing now?
A.He’s running his company.
B.He’s playing golf all day.
C.He’s looking for another job.
D.He’s playing computer games.
【2】Who is opposed to the H1N1 vaccine in the text?
A.Fred. B.Andy.
C.Liz. D.Chris.
【3】According to the text, Facebook tends to ______.
A.present another side of people
B.offer some food for free
C.show endless advertisements
D.get you to more parties
【4】The text is developed mainly by ______.
A.giving examples B.following the time order
C.listing figures D.raising questions
25、 When I was 7 years old, my father resigned(辞职) from his job as college professor. It created real______ risk for his family. But he felt that job forced him to ______ his principles, because nothing was more important to him than moral principles. That's why he chose to leave college.
That ______ decision was a model of my father's way of raising his kids—“Walk your talk. Live your values”. He ______ me to work hard, and I saw him studying night after night to get another degree and ______ part-time jobs to pay the bills.
____ kids has never been easy. But the challenge of helping boys find their way to a purposeful adult life is particularly ______ these days. Therefore, we can't lose sight of the important role fathers play in ______ sons into men of character.
A father has such a huge ______ that can spread beyond the family. Without father at home, boys ______ a higher risk of dropping out of the college. On the contrary, the _____ of fathers in a community could even positively influence fatherless boys. What explains this value? Football players will study the playbook, but they would prefer to reach for a coach who ______ it on the field. Similarly, it's about being a living ______. It's the model boys follow---not the speech.
Now, as a father, I ______ ask myself the question, "What can I do to show my son the way?" That's one reason why I joined the army to serve the country later. I did not want to ______ my children to follow my lead, but rather to show what it looked like to be more ______ to your country than to yourself. "I don't always have wisdom. ______ let me show you what it's like to be man."
It's hard to _____ life without my father's influence. Fatherhood is a ______ that cannot be replaced by others. As a boy goes forward through life, his father should be ______ the way.

26、阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Many people are fond of listening to music. Whether it’s light music or jazz music, it can improve our moods. Music has been with us since very early times in human history. Have you ever wondered how music might affect our health?
Research shows that having musical training and listening to or playing music at an old age can help keep the brain healthy. Since listening to music is like exercising the brain, one can expect the benefits of better memory and mental sharpness as he or she ages.
Music can make you feel happy, excited or even pumped up. Listening to music that hits you in a special way causes your brain to release dopamine, which is known as a "feel-good" chemical. It causes us to feel happy and excited. Listening to music provides us with the same burst of happiness that we would get from eating a piece of chocolate.
Music can strengthen the heart and shorten the recovery time of patients who are suffering from heart disease. A study found that heart disease patients who listened to music for 30 minutes had lower blood pressure, slower heart rates and less sadness than those who didn’t. Researchers from Drexel University found that cancer patients who either listened to music or worked with a music therapist had better blood pressure levels and improved moods.
Music can reduce levels of the stress hormone, which weakens the immune(免疫) system, increasing risk of heart disease, affecting learning and memory, lowering bone density (密度) and blood pressure, etc. Research found that by listening to just 50 minutes of uplifting music, the levels of antibodies in the human body increase.
Research has found that listening to music promotes better sleep patterns for people and even creates more restful sleep. In some cases, music might even be able to be used to effectively treat sleeplessness. Music can have positive effects on the soul and quality of life as well.
