A group of time-challenged Canadian women are wishing for a 25-hour clock.Jessie Behan, president of the 25th Hour Coalition (联盟)which is a group of Canadian women who have changed to a longer day, said the struggle for women to maintain work-life balance motivated (激励) her to research the body's natural clock.“Many of my girlfriends are having kids,getting married, and I see the sufferings of dealing all that when you're a working woman,”she said.“Women like myself are sick of living their lives by a 24-hour clock.”A 2007 study by Charles Czeisler found a switch to longer days could be beneficial, especially for frequent travelers, shift workers, astronauts and those who experience trouble sleeping or waking.In a similar study, Czeisler showed the body's natural clock averages 24 hours and 11 minutes in both young and older people.The current 360-degree clock has 720 minutes, giving each minute 0.5 degree.With the new 25-hour day, 30 minutes is added to each 12-hour period making each minute 0.48 degree.While still a relatively small movement-the 25th Hour Coalition has 160 Facebook members, Behan is hoping for large changes.“The goal is to get as many women on board; there's no harm in just trying it out and seeing.If it gets big, maybe the government will decide to standardize it.”A recent online survey by Reader's Digest, which included 150 people in each of the 13 countries, suggests it's not just Canadians looking for longer days.Readers were asked“what would you do with an extra hour”if given a choice between sleep, work, exercise and family time.In Spain, half of respondents said they'd like an extra hour in the day to devote to family time.The same was found for respondents in Brazil, the US and Britain, who chose family time over sleep, which came in at a close second.Only in India did work top the list with 50 percent ofrespondents claiming they could use an extra hour at the office.1.Some Canadian working women are campaigning for the 25-hour day in order to ________.A.have more chances at workB.keep a balance between life and workC.experience something newD.have a better sleep2.Charles Czeisler tends to think that ________.A.it's easy to adopt the 25-hour clockB.it's hard to abandon the 24-hour clockC.the 25-hour clock fits the body's natural clockmoreD.different people have different natural clocks3.Why does Jessie Behan want more women to join the 25th Hour Coalition?A.Because she intends to make more Facebook friends.B.Because she hopes to get benefits from more people.C.Because she considers it is harmless to form such an organization.D.Because she thinks more women may allow the dream to come true.4.What is implied in the last paragraph?A.Respondents from most nations want more family time.B.Respondents from developed countries experience more stress.C.Most Canadian respondents claim that they need more family time.D.Respondents from India are the most hardworking of the 13 nations.Ⅴ.翻译句子1.若有必要,我就去。

My answer is truthful but disappointing: We’re almost certainly evolving, but we don’t know in what direction or how fast.We’ve seen some evolution in our species over the past few millennia(千年), but it was detected by reconstructing history from DNA sequences. For example, we know that during the past 10,000 years, several populations of humans —those keeping sheep, cows or goats for milk— gained the ability to digest dairy products. This trait was useless in our earlier ancestors who, after babyhood, never encountered milk. And in the past 3,000 years, Tibetans have acquired genetic adaptations that allowed them to develop well in their high-altitude. low-oxygen home. But these well-documented changes are limited to particular populations, so the evidence for recent evolution of our entire species, remains not much.The aut hors of “Evolving Ourselves” disagree. Not only, they claim, are we evolving faster than ever, but we’re doing it to ourselves. Juan Enriquez and Steve Gullans argue that humans have controlled evolution — not just in our own species but virtually in all s pecies: “For better orworse, we are increasingly in charge. We are the primary drivers of change. We will directly and indirectly determine what lives, what dies, where, and when. We are in a different phase of evolution: the future of life is now in our hands.”According to the authors, we’ve replaced natural selection with what they call “unnatural selection.” Overfishing, for example, has reduced the average size of many fish species, for taking the biggest fish selects in favor of those that reproduce when younger and smaller.Yet while there’s no doubt that we’re changing the planet, the claim that we’re completely changing evolution on the planet does not follow. Let’s take those fish that are evolving to reproduce smaller and younger. This phenomenon has been documented in many species that we eat, but this is just a minuscule fraction (极小的一部分) of the 30,000 known species of fish.The authors speak with unwarranted assurance about how our species is evolving in response to nearly everything. When they assert, for example, our ingestion (摄取) of drugs and exposure to chemicals mean that “our children’s brains are evolving fast,” they are overplaying their hand and abusing the word “evolution.” Out children’s brains may be changing fast in response to the new pharmacological (药理学的) environment, but change alone is not evolution.58. The two examples in Paragraph 2 are given to .A. show in what direction humans evolveB. explain the importance of DNA sequencesC. illustrate the evidence for evolution of our entire species is insufficientD. demonstrate how slow humans have evolved over the past few millennia59. The authors of “Evolving Ourselves” claim that .A. humans dominate the future of other lifeB. fish become smaller because of natural selectionC. humans are to blame for changing the planet for the worseD. the boundary between natural selection and unnatural selection is unfixed60. What is the major question discussed in the passage?A. Are humans still evolving?B. Is unnatural selection powerful?C. Are humans the main driver of evolution?D. Does evolution require many genetic changes?CAmerica’s businesses are getting older and fatter, while many new businesses are dying in infancy.A study last month by the Brookings Institution found that the proportion of older firms has grown steadily over several decades, while the survival rate of new companies has fallen. In addition, young people are starting companies at a sharply lower rate than in the past.A new report from the National Association of Manufacturers shows a major cause: The cost of obeying government regulations has risen to more than $2 trillion (12.26 trillion yuan) annually, or 12 percent of the GDP, and this cost falls disproportionately on smaller, newer businesses.It’s risky, difficult and expensive to start a business, and getting more so. Governments are imposing various new rules on a seemingly daily basis: health insurance, minimum wage increases and, most recently in California, compulsory paid sick days for even hourly employees. These regulations shift huge social welfare costs directly onto often-struggling small businesses, while being proportionally much less costly for larger companies.This is partly an unintended issue of resources-established companies can cope with new costs more easily—but it’s also deliberate. For instance, big insurance companies got a seat at the table to help write Obamacare, but less politically powerful firms—like medical device manufacturers-got squeezed.Mature, successful corporations can employ ex-lawmakers with connections, distribute campaign contributions and even write regulations for themselves. They are also more likely to want to protect steady revenue streams than revolutionize their industry.Major companies that have been so ill-managed they would otherwise collapse-airlines, car companies and banks—stagger (蹒跚) on because politicians ride to the rescue with bags of taxpayer money.The genius of our unique system of government is the determination to protect and defend the rights of the individual over the rights of the nation. As such, the rise of a well-connected oligarchy (寡头政治) that protects big business at the expense of small business, and the established over the new, is opposite to American ideals.Income inequality—which is directly caused by faulty government policy—is being promoted as the reason to impose more of that bad policy. But let’s be perfectly clear, we do nothave a free market but one where government picks winners and losers through regulations and financial aids.Politics is, and always has been, about balancing competing interests seeking to benefit themselves, and that’s as it should be, but the force of government should never be used to reduce competition, kill innovation or support and extend artificial monopolies (垄断) by harming the consumer, the taxpayer and the economy. Policy must breed our new and small businesses or see the as-yet undreamed of innovations that could be our bright future die in infancy.61. We can learn from the passage that .A. over several decades, new companies have grown steadily.B. mature, successful corporations prefer to maintain their stable incomes.C. less politically powerful firms also have their voice in making regulations.D. the cost of obeying government regulations falls equally on all businesses.62. We can infer from the last three paragraphs that .A. the rise of a well-connected oligarchy is contrary to American idealsB. the state economy may depend on those innovative businessesC. income inequality is what the government should take action to resolveD. the government picks winners and losers through the law of free market63. It can be concluded from the passage that .A. larger and older firms have a command of resources of various aspectsB. most of the ex-lawmakers work in mature, successful corporationsC. politicians like providing financial aids to the companies of worse operationD. big insurance companies have better relationship with Obama64. As to the development of smaller businesses, the writer is .A. contentedB. confidentC. concernedD. convincedDThe phone ID flashed, “Emergency Vet”. “Oh no” I whispered. I could not lose Merlin now.Ron and I had tried to have children for a long time with depressing results. I threw myself into my work. Any maternal feelings I had were spent on Merlin.I couldn’t wait to get home from work each night. I wanted to pick up that warm bundle ofloving fur and nestle him. I wanted to sin g “Rock-a-bye Merlin”, as I did every night as he would put his paws around my neck.Merlin was my comfort especially at times when I wondered if God was listening. But last night something had changed. Not only did I sing “Rock-a-Bye Merlin”, but I asked,“What will I do after you’re gone?”Although Merlin was 19 years old, a senior in the age of a cat, he didn’t look or act that way.I didn’t want to accept the fact that he was nearing the end of his lifetime. My job at the law firm was so demandingA. ①②⑥B. ①②③C. ④⑤⑥D. ③④⑤67. What does “The next morning I called the vet.” in Paragraph 8 imply?A. The writer turned to the vet because Merlin was in desperate condition.B. The writer was so hopeless as to ask a favor of the vet.C.

When Merlin reached the examining room, .A. he shut his eyes lightly and was obviously deadB. his body felt warm because the writer rubbed him hardC. the writer chanted prayers to him trying to waking him upD. the writer felt helpless to have no timely surgical operation69. We can infer from the passage that .A. we have to have faith in the church to get miracles in future lifeB. God will not disappoint us if we are devoted to our loved onesC. couples should have a child or something to fill in their free timeD. doctors may not always be reliable when our loved ones need their help70.

A group of time-challenged Canadian women are wishing for a 25-hour clock.Jessie Behan, president of the 25th Hour Coalition (联盟)which is a group of Canadian women who have changed to a longer day, said the struggle for women to maintain work-life balance motivated (激励) her to research the body's natural clock.“Many of my girlfriends are having kids,getting married, and I see the sufferings of dealing all that when you're a working woman,”she said.“Women like myself are sick of living their lives by a 24-hour clock.”A 2007 study by Charles Czeisler found a switch to longer days could be beneficial, especially for frequent travelers, shift workers, astronauts and those who experience trouble sleeping or waking.In a similar study, Czeisler showed the body's natural clock averages 24 hours and 11 minutes in both young and older people.The current 360-degree clock has 720 minutes, giving each minute 0.5 degree.With the new 25-hour day, 30 minutes is added to each 12-hour period making each minute 0.48 degree.While still a relatively small movement-the 25th Hour Coalition has 160 Facebook members, Behan is hoping for large changes.“The goal is to get as many women on board; there's no harm in just trying it out and seeing.If it gets big, maybe the government will decide to standardize it.”A recent online survey by Reader's Digest, which included 150 people in each of the 13 countries, suggests it's not just Canadians looking for longer days.Readers were asked“what would you do with an extra hour”if given a choice between sleep, work, exercise and family time.In Spain, half of respondents said they'd like an extra hour in the day to devote to family time.The same was found for respondents in Brazil, the US and Britain, who chose family time over sleep, which came in at a close second.Only in India did work top the list with 50 percent of respondents claiming they could use an extra hour at the office.1.Some Canadian working women are campaigning for the 25-hour day in order to ________.A.have more chances at workB.keep a balance between life and workC.experience something newD.have a better sleep2.Charles Czeisler tends to think that ________.A.it's easy to adopt the 25-hour clockB.it's hard to abandon the 24-hour clockC.the 25-hour clock fits the body's natural clockmoreD.different people have different natural clocks3.Why does Jessie Behan want more women to join the 25th Hour Coalition? A.Because she intends to make more Facebook friends.B.Because she hopes to get benefits from more people.C.Because she considers it is harmless to form such an organization.D.Because she thinks more women may allow the dream to come true.4.What is implied in the last paragraph?A.Respondents from most nations want more family time.B.Respondents from developed countries experience more stress.C.Most Canadian respondents claim that they need more family time. D.Respondents from India are the most hardworking of the 13 nations.Ⅴ.翻译句子1.若有必要,我就去。
