After driving for thirty miles, she suddenly realized that she had been driving in the wrong direction.Those who have applied for the post are being interviewed in the office.The children have been told many times not to play with fire.The problem is that it may take time for new facts to become available.The fact remains that we are behind many others.Before he came to New York, he had never heard a single English word spoken Please write a report in which the above subjects are to be covered.There are many children whose behaviour is generally unacceptable.That people often experience trouble sleeping in a different bed in unfamiliar surrou ndings is a phenomenon known as the“first-night”effect.If a person stays in the s ame room the following night they tend to sleep more soundly.Yuka Sasaki and her c olleagues at Brown University set out to investigate the origins of this effect.Dr. Sasaki knew the first-night effect probably has something to do with how humans ev olved.The puzzle was what benefit would be gained from it when performance migh t be affected the following day.She also knew from previous work conducted on bird s and dolphins that these animals put half of their brains to sleep at a time so that th ey can rest while remaining alert enough to avoid predators(捕食者).This led her to wonder if people might be doing the same thing.To take a closer l ook,her team studied35healthy people as they slept in the unfamiliar environment of the university’s Department of Psychological Sciences.The participants each slept i n the department for two nights and were carefully monitored with techniques that l ooked at the activity of their brains.Dr.Sasaki found,as expected,the participants sl ept less well on their first night than they did on their second,taking more than twice as longto fall asleep and sleeping less overall.During deep sleep,the participants’brains b ehaved in a similar manner seen in birds and dolphins.On the first night only,the left hemispheres(半球)of their brains did not sleep nearly as deeply as their right hemispheres did. Curious if the left hemispheres were indeed remaining awake to process information detected in the surrounding environment,Dr.Sasaki re-ran the experiment while pre senting the sleeping participants with a mix of regularly timed beeps(蜂鸣声)of the same tone and irregular beeps of a different tone during the night.She wo rked out that,if the left hemisphere was staying alert to keep guard in a strange envir onment,then it would react to the irregular beeps by stirring people from sleep and would ignore the regularly timed ones.This is precisely what she found.1.What did researchers find puzzling about the first-night effect?[选项A]To what extent it can trouble people.[选项B]What role it has played in evolution.[选项C]What circumstances may trigger it.[选项D]In what way it can be beneficial.[答案]D2.What do we learn about Dr.Yuka Sasaki doing her research?[选项A]She found birds and dolphins remain alert while asleep.[选项B]She found birds and dolphins sleep in much the same way.[选项C]She got some idea from previous studies on birds and dolphins[选项D]She conducted studies on birds’and dolphins’sleeping patterns.[答案]C3.What did Dr.Sasaki do when she first did her experiment?[选项A]She monitored the brain activity of participants sleeping in a new environment. [选项B]She recruited35participants from her Department of Psychological Sciences. [选项C]She studied the differences between the two sides of participants’brains. [选项D]She tested her findings about birds and dolphins on human subjects.[答案]A4.What did Dr.Sasaki do when re-running her experiment?[选项A]She analyzed the negative effect of irregular tones on brains.[选项B]She recorded participants’adaptation to changed environment.[选项C]She exposed her participants to two different stimuli.[选项D]She compared the responses of different participants.[答案]C5.What did Dr.Sasaki find about the participants in her experiment?[选项A]They tended to enjoy certain tones more than others.[选项B]They tended to perceive irregular beeps as a threat.[选项C]They felt sleepy when exposed to regular beeps.[选项D]They differed in their tolerance of irregular tones.[答案]BIn the past,falling oil prices have given a boost to the world economy,but recent forecasts for global growth have been toned down,even as oil prices sink lower and lower.Does that mean the link between lower oil prices and growth has weakened?Some experts say there are still good reasons to believe cheap oil should heat up the world economy.Consumers have more money in their pockets when they’re paying less at the pump.They spend that money on otherthings,which stimulates the economy.The biggest gains go to countries that import most of their oil like China, Japan,and India.But doesn’t the extra money in the pockets of those countries,consumers mean an equal loss in oil-producing countries,cancelling out the gainsNot necessarily,says economic researcher Sara Johnson.“Many oil producers built up huge reserve funds when prices were high,so when prices fall they will draw on their reserves to support government spending and subsidies(补贴)for their consumers.”But not all oil producers have big reserves.In Venezuela,collapsing oil prices have sent its economy into free-fall.Economist Carl Weinberg believes the negative effects of plunging oil prices are overwhelming the positive effects of cheaper oil.The implication is a sharp decline in global trade,which has plunged partly because oil- producing nations can’t afford to import as much as they used to.Sara Johnson acknowledges that the global economic benefit from a fall in oil prices today is likely lower than it was in the past.One reason is that more countries are big oil producers now,so the nations suffering from the prices drop account for a larger share of the global economy.Consumers,in the.at least,are acting cautiously with the savings they’re getting at the gas pump,as the memory of the recent great recession is still fresh in their mind.And a number of oil-producing countries are trimming their gasoline subsidies and raising taxes,so the net savings for global consumers is not as big as the oil price plunge might suggest.1.does the author mainly discuss in the passage?[选项A]The reasons behind the plunge of oil prices.[选项B]Possible ways to stimulate the global economy.[选项C]The impact of cheap oil on global economic growth.[选项D]The effect of falling oil prices on consumer spending.[答案]C2.do some experts believe cheap oil will stimulate the global economy?[选项A]Manufacturers can produce consumer goods at a much lower cost. [选项B]Lower oil prices have always given a big boost to the global economy.[选项C]Oil prices may rise or fall but economic laws are not subject to change.[选项D]Consumers will spend their savings from cheap oil on other commodities.[答案]D3.happens in many oil-exporting countries when oil prices go down?[选项A]They suspend import of necessities from overseas.[选项B]They reduce production drastically to boost oil prices.[选项C]They use their money reserves to back up consumption.[选项D]They try to stop their economy from going into free-fall.[答案]C要提高我们的英语水平，关键是多读、多写、多听、多说。

阅读理解专项练习Passage 1The secret of being born lucky is a summer birthday, with May babies most likely to enjoy a lifetime’s good fortune, according to a study of more than 40,000 people. The time of year at which you are born has an enduring influence on levels of optimism and self-reported luck, according to a research by British and Swedish scientists. May was the luckiest month in which to be born, with 50 percent of those born then considering themselves lucky, while October was the least lucky month, with just 43 percent claiming good fortune.The findings add to growing evidence that the phenomenon of luck is not all down to chance, but is affected by a person’s general disposition. Other research has shown that whether people think themselves fortunate depends less on objective success than on having a “glass half-full” or “half-empty” approach to life. “What we are seeing suggests that something is influencing how people perceive their luckiness. My hypothesis is that people create their own luck by traits such as optimism, that luck is a psychological phenomenon rather than a matter of blind chance,” said Profe ssor Richard Wiseman, who led the research.The pattern of the result, with those born in spring and in summer reporting themselves luckier than those born in autumn or winter, could have two potential explanations, Professor Wiseman said.1.According to the passage, whether people think themselves lucky or not dependson the following factors EXCEPT _______.A. one’s objective successB. one’s general dispositionC. one’s attitude to lifeD. one’s place of birth2. According to the passage, those who were born in ________ regard themselves as the most fortunate.A. MarchB. AprilC. MayD. October3. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Optimistic people tend to be luckier.B. Devoted people tend to be luckier.C. Objective success is more important than one’s general disposition in feeling lucky.D. People drinking more water tend to be luckier.4. Which of the following words can be best replace the word “trait” (Line7, Para.2)?A. Quality.B. Expectation.C. Belief.D. Idea5. What is the best title for the passage?A. Luck is Something BornB. Luck is Not All Down to ChanceC. Luck is a Matter of Blind ChanceD. Luck and AgePassage 2Man has always wanted to fly. Some of the greatest men in history had thought about the problem. One of them, for example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo Da Vinci. In the 16th century he made designs for machines that would fly, but they were never built.Throughout history, other less famous men had wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and broke every bone of his body and rested in peace.The first real step took place in France, in 1783. Two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large “hot air balloon”. They knew that hot air rises. Why not fill a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about.1. Leonardo Da Vinci _______.A. said that man would fly in the sky one dayB. built a kind of machine which never flewC. made designs for flying machinesD. drew many beautiful pictures of birds2. Eight hundred years ago an Englishman _______.A. made a kind of flying machineB. tried to fly with wings made of chicken feathersC. wanted to build a kind of balloonD. tried to fly on a large bird3. In fact, the Englishman who tried to fly _______.A. got badly woundedB. succeeded in flyingC. lost his lifeD. flew only 8 minutes4. The very first air passengers in the balloon were _______.A. two animalsB. the MontgolfiersC. two FrenchmenD. the King and Queen5. When did two Frenchmen rise above Paris?A. In December 1783.B. In September 1783.C. In the 17th century.D. In November 1783.Passage 3Dieting to lose weight has become very popular in recent years. People have become more health conscious and try to take better care of their bodies by eating more nutritiously（有营养的） and exercising more regularly to lose any unnecessary fat that they may have.Not only are people being more careful about what they eat, they are also concerned with how they eat and how their meals are prepared. People are taking more time for each meal. Many avoid the so called “plastic” fast-food hamburgers and choose to eat a salad or a sandwich of more healthful ingredients(成分) in a quiet restaurant with a more leisurely atmosphere. At home, they also try to take enough time to eat a relaxing dinner without phone or TV interruptions.While dieting may be viewed as beneficial, it has also become a serious problem for Americans, particularly for young women. Dieting for them has actually become a psychological addiction(依赖). They eat so little that they can lose as much as fifty percent of their total body weight, and although they look like skeletons, they still insist that they are fat.The current waves of exercising, dieting and the problems produced have caused many organizations to begin educating the public. Many schools, hospitals, health organizations, newspapers and magazines, for example, are offering classes, printing booklet articles, etc. to inform the public of the way to exercise and diet, of the dangers of dieting too rapidly, and of the places people can go for medical help if they find themselves on the road to “diet addiction”.1. These days people are dieting more because _______.A. they have become fatter and fatterB. they have realized the danger of eatingC. they have become more health consciousD. they have taken better care of themselves2. What changes have people made in the atmosphere of mealtime?A. They are taking more time for each meal.B. They are eating in quiet restaurants with more leisurely atmosphere.C. At home they are eating without phone or TV interruptions.D. All of the above.3. “They look like skeletons” in the third paragraph most probably means ________.A. they are very prettyB. they are very uglyC. they are too thinD. they are starving4. The main idea of the last paragraph is about ________.A. how the organizations try to help people with dieting addictionB. what kind of media can be used to educate the publicC. where people with dieting addiction can go to ask for helpD. what causes the organizations to begin educating the public5. According to the passage, we can infer that the atmosphere of eating has something to do with ________.A. dietingB. mannersC. healthD. exercisingPassage 4Do you know who Benjamin Banneker was and what he did? Benjamin Banneker was a self-educated scientist at a time when most African Americans were slaves. Born a free black man in the British Colony of Maryland in 1731, he received some formal education, but he mostly borrowed books and taught himself science and mathematics. At 22, he borrowed a pocket watch, and without any training, figured out how to carve a working wooden clock that chimed each hour. Because of this clock, he became well known and people would visit him just to see his creation.Banneker ran his family farm from many years, but when he was in his late 50s, a neighbor’s son lent him a telescope. He became interested in astronomy, the stud y of the planets and stars, and again taught himself a new science. He made calculations of tides, sunrises and sunsets, and even predicted an eclipse. For several years he published an almanac of these calculations. Today, he is best known for publishing six almanacs, called “Benjamin Banneker’s Almanac” between 1792 and 1797.In the 1790s, Banneker also helped survey and lay out the land for Washington, D. C., which became the nation’s capital. For a look at Banneker’s amazing life, visit the Benjamin Banneker Historical Park & Museum in Ellicott City, Maryland.1.

Helping surveying the capital.C. Benjamin Banneker’s Almanac.D. A wooden clock.Passage 5The clock struck eleven at night. The whole house was quiet. Everyone was in bed except me. Under the strong light, I looked sadly before me at a huge pile of that troublesome stuff they call “books”.I was going to have my examination the next day. “When can I go to bed?” I asked myself. I didn’t answer. In fact, I dare not.The clock struck twelve. “Oh, dear!” I cried.“Ten more books to read before I can go to bed!” We pupils are the most wretched creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He did not have to work so hard when he was a boy.The clock stroke one. I was quite desperate now. I forgot all I had learned.I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “Oh, God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.”My eyes were so heavy that I could hardly open them.

When they work, they usually get paid in money.Most of the money today is made of metal pr paper. But people used to use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of money was shells. Shells were not the only things used as money. In China, cloth and knives were used. In the Philippine Islands, rice was used as money. In parts of Africa, cattle were one of the earliest money. Other animals were used as money too.The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the center. People strung them together and carried them from place to place. Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. The first coins in England were made of tin. Sweden and Russia used copper to make their money. Later, other countries began to make coins of gold and silver.But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. They began to use paper money.

Why does the author say that even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive?A. Because they are difficult for people to obtain.B. Because they themselves are expensive, too.C. Because they are not easy to carry around.D. Because they are easy to steal.5. Which do you choose as the best title for this passage?A. Money and Its UseB. Different Things Used as MoneyC. Different Countries, Different MoneyD. The History of MoneyPassage 7In Denmark, parents are allowed to set up a new school if they are dissatisfied with the school in the area where they are living. Although these schools have to follow the national course, they are allowed a lot of choices in deciding what to teach.Some of these new schools are called “small schools” because usually the number of pupils in them is only sixty, but a school has to have at least twenty-seven pupils. Cooleenbridge School in Ireland, is a small school similar to the ones in Denmark, it was set up by parents who came from Holland, Germany, Czechoslovakia, England and other parts of Ireland. They came because they wanted to live in the countryside and to grow their own food. In June 1986, they decided to start a school. They managed to get an old, disused primary school building and started with twenty-four children aged from four to twelve.The teachers say, “The important thing in school is doing, not sitting.” And so the courses include yoga, cooking, knitting, kite-making, music, fishing, drama and environmental river studies, as well as reading, writing, maths and science.1.

To many people, the cause is obvious: they eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support the idea.Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less and didn’t watch television.Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as the 1979 study of 3,545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts: The more the men run, the more body fat they lost. The more they ran, the greater amount of food they ate. Thus, those who run the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.1. The physical problem that many adult Americans have is that ________.A. they are too slimB. they work too hardC. they are too fatD. they lose too much body fat2. According to the article, given 500 adult Americans, ________ will have a weight problem.A. 30B. 50C. 100D. 1503. Is there any scientific evidence to support that eating too much is the cause of a weight problem?A. Yes, there is plenty of evidence.B. Of course, there is some evidence to show this is true.C. There is hardly any scientific evidence to support that.D. We don’t know because the information is not given.4. In comparison with the adult American population today, the Americans of the 1910s _______.A. ate more food and had more physical activities.B. ate less food but had more activitiesC. ate less food and had less physical exerciseD. had more weight problems5. Modern scientific researchers have reported to us that ________.A. fat people eat less food and are less activeB. fat people eat more food than slim people and are more activeC. fat people eat more food than slim people but are less activeD. thin people run less, but have greater increase in food intakePassage 9Mass media, the tools of communication, can be divided into two groups: print media and electronic media. By print media, we mean books, newspapers and magazines. Electronic media include television, computer, radio and movie. Mass media allow us to record and pass information rapidly to a large, scattered audience. They extend our ability to talk to each other by helping us overcome barriers cause by time and space.Mass media make daily life easier for us in various ways. Firstly, they help us keep a watch on our world. They gather and pass on information we would be unlikely or unable to obtain on our own.Secondly, mass media help us arrange our time and life. What we talk about and what we think about are greatly influenced by the media. When people get together, they tend to talk about certain happenings in newspapers or on TV. Because we are exposed to different points of view through different kinds of media every day, we are able to evaluate all sides of a certain issue.Thirdly, the media are used to persuade people. Newspapers, magazines and TV are filled with all kinds of colorful, persuasive advertisements. Though many advertisements may not say openly that they want you to buy a certain product, they describe their products in such a way that you may want to buy them.Fourthly, the media also entertain. All media make efforts to entertain their audience. For instance, even though the newspaper is a prime medium of information, it also contains entertainment features. Television, motion picture, some radio stations and magazines are devoted mainly to entertainment. It is estimated that in the future, the entertainment function of mass media will become even more important than it is now.1.What makes it possible for people living in different places to communicate witheach other?A.

In the 16th century he made designs for machines that would fly, but they were never built.Throughout history, other less famous men had wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and broke every bone of his body and rested in peace.The first real step took place in France, in 1783. Two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large “hot air balloon”. They knew that hot air rises. Why not fil l a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about.1. Leonardo Da Vinci _______.A. said that man would fly in the sky one dayB. built a kind of machine which never flewC. made designs for flying machinesD. drew many beautiful pictures of birds2.

The flashes reflected light could be seen several miles away. The enemy did not know what the flashes meant, but other Greek soldiers could understand the message.Roman soldiers in some places built long rows of signal towers. When they had a message to send, the soldiers shouted it from tower to tower. If there were enough towers and soldiers with loud voices, important news could be sent quickly over distance.In Africa, people learn to send messages by beating on a series of large drums. Each drum was kept within hearing distance of the next one. The drum beats were sent out in a special way that all the drummers understood. Though the messages were simple, they could be sent at great speed for hundreds of miles.In the eighteenth century, a French engineer found a new way to send short messages. In this way, a person held a flag in each hand and the arms were moved to various positions representing different letters of the alphabet. It was like spelling out words with flags and arms.Over a long period of time, people sent messages by all these different ways. However, not until the telephone was invented in America in the nineteenth century could people send speeches sounds over a great distance in just a few seconds. 1.
