试题分析:本文讲述了人在疲惫不堪的时候,没有什么事情能够阻止他们入睡。并举了很多滑稽恐怖的例子来说明这个观点。
小题1:from /after前句“在回家的路上”说明他们是下班以后,固定词组:下班after work.

小题7:worst 上面的例子是在课堂上所发生的,可能不会产生可怕的结果,下面所举的例子是开车时睡着了,s是与生命有关的事情,那是最为糟糕的事情。故使用最高级worst。
小题8:If 根据后半句they are not seriously hurt没有人收到严重的伤害,那么前面是条件句,如果运气好。
小题9:was raining 根据上文她的车掉进了水里,她在醒来的时候以为是在下雨。
小题10: nothing 当人们在疲惫的时候,没有什么能够阻止他们入睡。

"The hate we hold within us is a cancer, " Professor Ken Hart said, adding that holding in anger can lead to problems such as high blood pressure and heart disease.
More than 70 people have become members in Hart"s first 20-week workshop in London—a course he says is the first of its kind in the world.
These are people who are sick and tired of living with a memory. They realize their bitterness is a poison they think they can pour out, but they end up drinking it themselves, said Canadian- born Hart.
The students meet in groups of eight to ten for a two-hour workshop with an adviser every fortnight.
The course, ending in July, is expected to get rid of the cancer of hate in these people. "People have lots of negative attitudes towards forgiveness," he said, "People confuse forgiveness with forgetting. Forgiveness means changing from a negative attitude to a positive one."
Hart and his team have created instructions to provide the training needed.
"The main idea is to give you guidelines on how to look at various kinds of angers and how they affect you, and how to change your attitudes towards the person you are angry with," said Norman Claringbull, a senior expert on the forgiveness project.
Hart said he believes forgiveness is a skill that can be taught, as these people "want to get free of the past".

General differences seem to be natural in male and female brains: Men are better at maintaining and dealing with mental images (useful in mathematical reasoning and spatial skills), while women tend to excel be good at recalling information from their brain’s files. Many studies have looked for a connection between sex and the amount of mental decline people experience as they age, but the results have been mixed.
Some studies found more age-related decline in men than in women, while others saw the opposite or even no relationship at all between sex and mental decline.
Those results could be improper because the studies involved older people, and women live longer than men: The men tested are the survivors, “so they’re the ones that may not have shown such cognitive(认知的) decline,” said study team leader Elizabeth of the University of Warwick in England.
Scientists surveyed completed four tasks that tested sex-related cognitive skills: matching an object to its rotated form, matching lines shown from the same angle, typing as many words in a particular category as possible in the given time, e.g. “object usually colored gray”, and recalling the location of objects in a line drawing. The first two were tasks at which men are usually good; the latter are typically dominated by women. Within each age group studied, men and women performed better in their separate categories on average. And though performance declined with age for both genders, women showed obviously less decline than men overall.
小题1:According to the passage, which of the following can NOT be typed into the same category?
A.cloud | B.sheep | C.trees | D.goose |
A.Men do better than women when it comes to learning English. |

C.Women do well in dealing mathematic problems. |
D.Men excel at typing as many words as possible in the given time. |
A.women live longer than men |
B.people surveyed are all old |
C.the old men tested may not have shown such cognitive decline |
D.people taking part in this test came from all over the world |
A.women’s minds perform better than men’s |
B.men’s minds decline more with age |
C.everyone becomes a little more forgetful as they get older |
D.a survey on human’s mind decline was done recently |
_______________________. Ask your mom or dad to lend help and support and to make lifestyle changes that will benefit the whole family, if possible. Those who have the support of their families tend to have better results with their weight-management programs.
Watch your drinks. It’s amazing how many extra calories can be in the sodas, juices and other drinks that you take in every day. Simply cutting out a can of soda or one sports drink can save you 150 calories or more each day. Slake yourself with water or other sugar-free drinks when you’re thirsty and stay away from sugary juices and sodas.
Stop eating when you’re full. Lots of people eat when they’re full. Try to pay attention as you eat and stop when you are full.
Avoid diet pills. They can be dangerous to your health; besides, there’s no evidence that they help keep weight off over the long term.
Get moving. You don’t have to play a team sport or go to the gym. Try different kinds of activities from hiking to cycling, or to dancing until you find what you like.

Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.
The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.
小题1:The main idea of this passage is that_____
A.large numbers of people do not need sleep |
B.a person was found who actually didn’t need any sleep |
C.everyone needs some sleep to stay alive |
D.people can live longer by trying not to sleep |
A.to cure him of his sleeplessness |
B.to find that his sleeplessness was not really true |
C.to find out why some old people did not need any sleep |
D.to find a way to free people from the need of sleeping |
A.needed some kind of sleep |
B.was too old to need any sleep |
C.needed no sleep at all |
D.often sleep in a chair |
A.his mother’s injury before he was born |
B.that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habit |
C.his magnificent physical condition |
D.that he hadn’t got a bed |
A.a common one | B.one that could be cured | C.very healthy | D.a rare one |
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, and few of us know that it is just his own fault.
Have you ever found that some people can"t read or write but they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practise remembering.
小题1:If you do not use your arms or legs for some time, ______.
A.you can"t use them any more |
B.they will become stronger |
C.they become weak but they slowly become strong again |
D.they become weak and won"t become strong until you use them again |
A.they can"t write everything in a little notebook |
B.they have to use their memories all the time |
C.they have saved much trouble |
D.they have saved much time to remember things |
A.he does not use his arms or legs for some time | B.he can"t read or write |
C.his father or mother may have a poor memory | D.his memory is not often used |
A.How To Have A Good Memory | B.Don"t Stop Using Your Arms Or Legs |
C.Strong Arms And Good Memories | D.Learn From The People |
