16．I was never very neat，while my roommate Kate was extremely organized．Each of her objects had its place，but mine always hid somewhere．She even labeled （貼標(biāo)簽 ） everything．I always looked for everything．Over time，Kate got neater and I got messier．She would push my dirty clothing over，and I would lay my books on her tidy desk．We both got tired of each other．
War broke out one evening．Kate came into the room．Soon，I heard her screaming，"Take your shoes away!Why under my bed!"Deafened，I saw my shoes flying at me．I jumped to my feet and started yelling．She yelled back louder．
The room was filled with anger．We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call．Kate answered it．From her end of the conversation，I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill．When she hung up，she quickly crawled （爬 ） under her covers，weeping．Obviously，that was something she should not go through phone．All of a sudden，a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart，
Slowly，I collected the pencils，took back the books，made my bed，cleaned the socks and swept the floor，even on her side．I got so into my work that I even didn't noticed Kate had sat up．She was watching，her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief．Then，she reached out her hands to grasp mine．I looked up into her eyes．She smiled at me．"Thanks．"
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year．We didn't always agree，but we learned   the key to living together：giving in．cleaning up and holding on．

55．What made Kate angry one evening？D
A．She couldn't find her books．
B．She heard the author shouting loud．
C．She got the news that her grandma was ill．

B．she hated herself for being so messy
C．she wanted to show her care

A．By analyzing causes．
B．By showing differences．

A．My Friend Kate                  
B．Hard Work Pays Off
C．How to Be Organized

分析 本文講述了作者與室友生活習(xí)慣迥異，沖突在所難免．在室友遭遇悲痛之時，作者以實際行動表達自己的同情，從而達成和好．作者從中懂得一個道理：讓步、整理房間和堅持是處理室友關(guān)系的關(guān)鍵．

解答 55：D 細節(jié)題．從第二段I heard her screaming．"Take your shoes away!Why under my bed!"Deafened，I saw my shoes flying at me．等句可知，室友生氣是因為作者亂丟亂放的鞋子．故選擇D．
56：C 推斷題．從第四段All of a sudden，a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart．一句可知，作者整理房間是出于對室友悲傷的同情而表達自己的關(guān)切．故選擇C．
57：B 第一段描述了作者與室友在日常習(xí)慣上的種種差異：I was never very neat，while my roommate Kate was extremely organized．我不愛整潔，而我的室友相當(dāng)?shù)膼壅麧�；Each of her objects had its place，but mine always hid somewhere她的東西有序排放，而我的東西倒出亂扔…，這是表明我們的差異，故選擇B．
58：D 主旨大意題．文章最后作者表達了自己敘述這個故事的意圖：就是懂得了與室友相處的關(guān)鍵．選擇D．

點評 本文是人物故事類閱讀理解．做這類題材閱讀理解時要求考生對文章通讀一遍，做題時結(jié)合原文和題目有針對性的找出相關(guān)語句進行仔細分析，結(jié)合選項選出正確答案．推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案，切忌胡亂猜測，一定要做到有理有據(jù)．

6．Sleeping for less than six hours a night greatly increases the risk of dying from a heart attack or stroke（中風(fēng)），a study has found．It is the stuff of nightmares for those whose busy work schedule or busy family life means getting up early and staying up late．Scientists claim that the modern tendency to delay going to bed in order to get through more of the items on the‘to do'list has serious health consequences．But take care．Those who have too much sleep are also more likely to suffer a heart attack．While the extra sleeping is unlikely to be the cause，long-term illnesses such as heart disease often make sufferers feel tired，so sleeping for longer than nine hours a night may be an early warning sign．
   Researchers found that those who slept for less than six hours were almost 50 per cent more likely to suffer a heart attack and 15 per cent more at risk of strokes．They believe that not having enough sleep disrupts the balance of two key hormones（激素），ghrelin（生長素）and leptin（瘦素），which control the appetite．Poor sleepers tend to eat more and are more likely to be fatter，so are at greater risk of high blood pressure and heart disease，which lead to heart attacks and strokes．Experts recommend adults get at least six or seven hours'shut-eye a night to stay healthy．
   But as many as 60 per cent of us do not think we are sleeping enough，with a third suffering from sleeplessness．The researchers，from the University of Warwick，warned that trying to push too much into one day by going to bed late and getting up early could lead to serious illnesses later in life．They looked at the sleeping habits of almost 475，000 participants from 15 previous studies across eight countries，including the UK，the U．S．，Japan，Sweden and Germany．Their findings，published in the European Heart Journal，show that those who slept for less than six hours were 48 per cent more likely to develop or die from heart disease and 15 per cent more likely to develop or die from a stroke．Not having enough sleep decreases the levels of leptin in our blood，which means we do not feel as satisfied after eating．At the same time，it raises the levels of ghrelin，responsible for triggering（引起） our appetite，thus making us feel hungrier．
   The scientists believe that our‘work hard，play hard'society encourages us to sacrifice sleep and ignore our health．The trend for late nights and early mornings is actually a ticking time bomb for our health so you need to act now to reduce your risk of developing these life-threatening conditions．
50．What's the main idea of the passage？A
A．Lack of sleep raises your risk of stroke or heart disease．
B．It raises the levels of ghrelin，thus making us feel hungrier．
C．Sleeping for longer than nine hours a night may be an early warning sign．
D．The scientists believe that our‘work hard，play hard'society encourages us  
to sacrifice sleep and ignore our health．
51．Which word do you think can take the place of"disrupts"in the second paragraph？
C
A．increases   B．destroys    C．a(chǎn)ffects   D．reduces
52．According to the passage，why don't we feel as satisfied after eating？D
A．Because not having enough sleep disrupts the balance of two key hormones，ghrelin and leptin，which control the appetite．
B．Because not having enough sleep decreases the levels of leptin in our blood．
C．Because not having enough sleep raises the levels of ghrelin，thus making us feel hungrier．
D．All above add up．
53．Which of the sentences is true according to the text？C
A．Researchers found that those who slept for less than six hours were almost 50 per cent more likely to suffer strokes and 15 per cent more at risk of a heart attack．
B．Those who have too much sleep aren't likely to suffer a heart attack．
C．But as many as 60 per cent of us do not think we are sleeping enough，with a third suffering from sleeplessness．
D．Trying to push too much into one day by going to bed early and getting up late could lead to serious illnesses in life
54．What does the writer suggest people should do in the passage？B
A．The writer thinks that we had better follow the trend for late nights and early mornings．
B．The writer advises adults get at least six or seven hours'shut-eye a night to stay healthy．
C．The writer doubts it a good idea to act now to reduce the risk of developing these life-threatening conditions．
D．The writer encourages us to sacrifice sleep and ignore our health．
