【題目】閱讀下面短文，在空白處填入1個(gè)適當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~或括號(hào)內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。

A hotel chain is employing human bed warmers to help guests get a good night’s sleep. 【1】 (dress) in special all-in-one sleeping suits, the walking electric blankets are sent to warm the beds of guests staying at the Holiday Inn 【2】 they get under the covers.

Dr Chris Idzikowski, 【3】 (direct) of the Edinburgh Sleep Centre, said the idea could help people get off to sleep. He 【4】 (explain) that “There’s plenty of scientific evidence to show that sleep starts at the beginning of the night 【5】 body temperature starts to drop. The drop occurs partly because the blood vessels (血管) 【6】 the hands, face and feet open up and release heat.” “A warm bed –approximately 20 to 24 degrees Celsuis –is 【7】 good way to start this process while a cold bed isn’t. It helps people sleep well especially as it’s taking much 【8】 (long) for them to warm up when they come in from the snow.”

Dr Chris Idzikowski and 【9】 (he) colleague Jane Bednall said the idea was like “having a giant hot water bottle in your bed”. The five-minute free bed warming sessions will be tried out in London and Manchester 【10】 the end of next month.

【答案】

【1】Dressed

【2】before

【3】director

【4】explained

【5】when

【6】of

【7】a

【8】longer

【9】his

【10】at

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章介紹了一款新發(fā)明的暖床器以及使用暖床器的好處。

【1】考查過去分詞作定語。句意：行走的電熱毯將會(huì)穿著特制的連體睡衣被送去假日酒店在客人上床之前給客人進(jìn)行暖床。動(dòng)詞dress與這句話的主語the walking electric blankets之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，故填Dressed。

【2】考查狀語從句的連詞。句意同上。根據(jù)句意，客人睡覺之前需要暖床，故填before。

【3】考查名詞。句意：愛丁堡睡眠中心的主任Chris Idzikowski博士說，這個(gè)辦法能幫助人們更好地入睡�？崭袂笆且粋�(gè)人名，兩個(gè)逗號(hào)之間的部分是這個(gè)人名的同位語，所以應(yīng)填一個(gè)表示人的名詞。故填director。

【4】考查一般過去時(shí)。句意：他解釋，有充分科學(xué)依據(jù)顯示，入夜人體體溫開始下降的時(shí)候就是睡眠產(chǎn)生的時(shí)候。由上一句中said使用的是一般過去時(shí)可知，這句話也應(yīng)使用一般過去時(shí)。故填explained。

【5】考查定語從句。句意同上。根據(jù)句意，這是一個(gè)定語從句，先行詞為the beginning of the night（夜開始的時(shí)候），并且先行詞在從句中做時(shí)間狀語，故填關(guān)系詞when。

【6】考查介詞。句意：人體溫度之所以會(huì)下降，部分原因在于，（這時(shí)）人的手部、臉部以及腳部的血管開始擴(kuò)張，散發(fā)了熱量。空前前后都是名詞，所以空格處應(yīng)填介詞，the blood vessels與the hands之間屬于所屬關(guān)系，故填of。

【7】考查不定冠詞。句意：溫暖的床（溫度大約在20到24攝氏度之間）有助于人們?nèi)胨涞拇矂t會(huì)妨礙人們?nèi)胨��？崭裎挥谥^語動(dòng)詞后，空格后為一個(gè)可數(shù)單數(shù)名詞短語，所以空格處應(yīng)填不定冠詞。“good”是以輔音音素開始的，故填a。

【8】考查形容詞比較級(jí)。句意：它能幫助人們睡得更好，特別是當(dāng)他們從大雪天進(jìn)來，要花更長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間才能讓被窩暖和起來的時(shí)候。根據(jù)句意，這句話強(qiáng)調(diào)天冷的時(shí)候，要花更長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間才能讓被窩暖和起來，故填形容詞比較級(jí)比較合適。故填longer。

【9】考查形容詞性的物主代詞。句意：Chris Idzikowski博士和他的同事Jane Bednall說，這個(gè)主意就像是“往你的被窩兒里放個(gè)大熱水瓶�！笨崭窈笫且粋�(gè)但數(shù)名詞，且colleague與Chris Idzikowski之間是所屬關(guān)系，所以應(yīng)填形容詞性的物主代詞。Chris Idzikowski是男士，故填his。

【10】考查介詞。句意：這個(gè)五分鐘就能暖床的環(huán)節(jié)這個(gè)月底將在倫敦與曼徹斯特實(shí)行。at the end of意為“在……末端; 在……的結(jié)尾”，為固定搭配。故填at。

【題目】The human body is designed to move. But modern lifestyles and office jobs rarely give us the chance to move around. As we know, we’re sitting while we’re eating; we sit in the car and we sit while we watch TV. And many of us sit for many hours at work.

New research shows that sitting less than three hours a day might extend your life by two years. Peter Katzmarzyk, a scientist at the University of Louisiana in the southern United States, says that sitting is ubiquitous in our lives, meaning it is something we do all the time, everywhere.

However, Mr. Katzmarzyk says that does not mean you can sit for the rest of your waking hours. He also says you may exercise often, “We can’t throw away physical activity. It’s extremely important. We have 60 years of research showing us that.”

Mr. Katzmarzyk and his colleagues are part of a new generation of researchers studying how sitting all day affects length of life. “Studies that have assessed the relationship between sitting and mortality (死亡率) or television viewing and mortality are very rare. There’s only been a few of them, actually five or six now, in the last four or five years.” They found that cutting television time to less than two hours a day could add one point four years to life.

Luckily, change is already coming to some offices, especially in the design of desks. A “standing desk” lets people stand while they work. Another new design is called the “treadmill desk.” A treadmill is an exercise machine that lets you walk in one place. Even some U.S. schools are beginning to experiment with desks that are part bicycle to keep children moving. That’s one of the strategies that many companies are using now.

Mr. Katzmarzyk also says studying this problem has inspired his team to make a few changes in their own lives.

【1】The underlined word “ubiquitous” is closest in meaning to ________．

A. dangerous B. impressive

C. comfortable D. common

【2】Which view agrees with the opinion of Mr. Katzmarzyk?

A. Sitting long may help people live longer.

B. Exercise is important and don’t sit too long.

C. People are unaware of the harm of sitting too long.

D. Stopping watching TV is a necessary but hard task.

【3】What does Mr. Katzmarzyk think of his study in Paragraph 4?

A. It’s been ignored by many scientists. B. It’s a study that begins too late.

C. It’s an entirely new area of study. D. It’s been a hot subject for scientists.

【4】Why are the desks of all kinds designed for those who sit more?

A. To give them more comfort. B. To improve their work efficiency.

C. To offer them the chance to exercise. D. To seek pleasure while working.

WHERE TO GO IN AUGUST?

In Europe

August is the height of the peak season! Millions of holidaymakers from around the world invade the beaches and countryside of Southern Europe. The climate is great for travel for just about the whole of the continent with just a few areas affected by extreme heat.

The north of Europe is lovely during this month and summer is the ideal time to visit those countries that are generally considered a little cold and damp such as Ireland.Scotland or Holland.

In Asia

This season is considered the least favourable.The monsoon(季風(fēng))season is at its height over the majority of this area with the exception of only a few countries (Kerala or Tamil Nadu in India,Bali and the southern islands of Indonesia,etc.) Everywhere else a hot,and very damp climate prevails(盛行).

In Africa

The Maghreb countries are crowded with tourists.The climate is hot and dry.The Atlantic coast of Morocco is pleasant thanks to the ocean influence.Further to the south it is the rainy season and it is only along the latitude(緯度)of Kenya and Tanzania that the climate becomes favourable to visitors.

In America

The north is generally hot and dry(sometimes extremely hot in the deserts towards the west of the USA).Central America experiences a short rainy season at this time but towards the south the conditions are more favourable.

To be avoided:

Although July and August are favourable to travel“climatically”speaking,it is often not so pleasant when it comes to quietness and prices.The vast majorities of European countries have their main holidays during this period so the hotels are generally crowded and the prices high for the majority of destinations.

【1】Which part may be the last choice for travelling in August?

A. Asia. B. Africa.

C. Southern Europe. D. Southern America.

【2】Besides climate,__________ can contribute to your disappointment when travelling.

A. hotel prices B. peaceful environment

C. transportation expenses D. troublesome holidaymakers

【3】What does the underlined word“invade”in the part “in Europe” mean?

A. Immigration to. B. Visit separately.

C. Enter in large numbers. D. Attack and occupy.
