題目列表(包括答案和解析)

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

　　Are morning people born or made? In my case it was definitely made．In my early 20s, I rarely went to bed before midnight, and I would almost always get up late the next morning．

　　But after a while I couldn't ignore the high relationship between success and rising early．On those rare occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity was almost always higher．So I set out to become a habitual early riser．But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noise and go back to sleep．Eventually some sleep research showed me that I was using the wrong strategy．

　　The most common wrong strategy is this：You assume that if you’re going to get up earlier, you'd better go to bed earlier．It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail．

　　There are two main schools(流派)of thought on sleep patterns．One is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day．The second school says you should go to bed when you’re tired and get up when you naturally wake up．However, I have found both of them are wrong if you care about productivity．If you sleep at set hours, you'll sometimes go to bed when you aren't sleepy enough．You’re wasting time lying in bed awake and not being asleep．

　　If your sleep is based on what your body tells you, you'll probably be sleeping more than you need．Also, your mornings may be less predictable if you’re getting up at different times．

　　The solution for me has been to combine both methods．I go to bed when I'm sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time．So I always get up at the same time(in my case 5 am), but I go to bed at different times every night － sometimes at 9：30pm, and other times at midnight．Most of the time I go to bed between 10-11 pm．

　　However, going to bed only when I'm sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning is my way．If you want to become an early riser, you can try your own．

A round of applause, please, for the Indian man who recently sang for 80 hours straight, setting a new Guinness world record. It’s an impressive feat, to be sure, but let’s just hope he still has a voice. According to Indian newspapers, Rajesh Burbure has been told to keep silent for several days so his vocal cords (聲帶) can heal.

It was reported that Burbure and his family are in a celebratory mood. “It’s a proud moment for all of us,” his wife told DNAIndia.com.

I, on the other hand, am unable to share their enthusiasm. Don’t get me wrong: I hope the 35-year-old Burbure lives forever, sells a million records and becomes an international celebrity. But his record–singing for 80 hours straight–is about as meaningful as most of the other curious but crazy feats listed in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Granted , I’m not qualified to speak on the subject. I’ve got no world records to my name– and I never expect to have any. Then again, maybe I am qualified to speak for those of us who have better things to do than train for years to sing an 80-hour medley (混合曲) of pop songs.

But let’s not just pick on poor Burbure. He’s not the only person chasing meaningless accolades. The Guinness Book of World Records is full of the names of people who at one time grew the longest hair, or built the biggest bicycle, or baked the largest cheesecake.

To all of these enterprising (有進(jìn)取心的) souls I ask, simply, “What was it all for?”

Congratulations! For all of your painstaking effort, you became a footnote in a thick book that no one reads, except for you and the person who will eventually surpass you–with one more hour of singing, a few more centimeters of steel or a few more pounds of cheese.

After all, records are made to be broken.

From the text, we can learn that the author         .

      A．has no Guinness records, so he admires Burbures’ feat

       B．feels it is a pity he was not invited to share the happiness with the Burbures

       C．thinks singing for 80 hours straight is completely meaningless

       D．is quite worried about Burbure’s vocal cords

Before someone wins a Guinness record, he or she has to         .

       A．become an international celebrity

       B．know all about Guinness record

       C．practice a great deal

       D．bear great stress for fear of injury

We can infer from the article that        .

       A．a(chǎn)fter the 80 hours of singing, Burbure could no longer speak

       B．Burbure’ wife didn’t support his attempt to make a Guinness record

       C．many have criticized Burbure for his stupid behavior

       D．challenging a Guinness record may be harmful to the health

The author’s attitude to the Guinness world records mentioned in the passage is         .

       A．positive           B．impressed

       C．negative           D．touched

What is the best title for the passage?

       A．What Was the Point?

       B．Records Are Made to be Broken

       C．A New Indian Guinness Record

       D．The Guinness Book Is Boring
