In my case it was definitely made. In my early 20s, I hardly went to bed before midnight, an d I would always get up late the next morning.But after a while I couldn’t ignore the high relationship betwe en success and rising early. On those rare occasions where I di d get up early, I noticed that my productivity (效率) was always higher. So I set out to become a habitual early ri ser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sle ep research showed that my strategy was wrong.The most common wrong strategy is this: supposing you’re g oing to get up earlier, you’d better go to bed earlier. It sounds v ery reasonable, but will usually fail.There are two main schools (流派) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to b ed and get up at the same time every day. The second school s ays you should go to bed when you’re tired and get up when yo u naturally wake up. However, I have found both are wrong if yo u care about productivity. If you sleep at fixed hours, you’ll som etimes go to bed when you aren’t sleepy enough. You’re wastin g time lying in bed awake.My solution is 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 alwa ys get up at the same time (in my case 5 a.m.), but I go to bed at different times every night.However, going to bed only when I’m sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning are my ways. If you want to become an early riser, you can try your own.61. According to the passage, the underlined phrase refers to _ _______.A. people who stay up until the next morningB. people who get up early in the morningC. people who feel sleepy in the morningD. people whose productivity is the lowest in the morning62. Why did the author want to become a habitual early riser?A. Because he / she wanted to have more sleep time.B. Because he / she wanted to do morning exercise.C. Because he / she wanted to test which school is better.D. Because he / she found that the productivity was higher.63. The author experienced all the following EXCEPT ________.A. going to bed after midnightB. asking scholars for advice on sleeping habitsC. getting up early occasionallyD. pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping64. What’s the author’s sleep pattern?A. Going to bed early and getting up early.B. Going to bed late and getting up late.C. Going to bed when sleepy and getting up at a fixed early tim e.D. Going to bed early and getting up late.65. The passage is mainly about ________.A. main schools of thought on sleep patternsB. how to have a good sleepC. wrong strategies for getting up earlyD. how to become an early riserCNew rules for pubs and clubs, including a ban (禁令) on drinking games like the awful "dentist's chair", will be intr oduced in Britain this year to prevent the heavy drinking culture, which costs the country billions of pounds a year.Other activities like "all you can drink for 10 pounds ", "women d rink free" nights and speed drinking competitions will also be ba nned.But, on the other hand, offers of cheap alcohol in supermarkets will not be affected, which is widely regarded as one of the main sources of 's problems with under-age and over-drinking. Doctors and health experts argue that the government has faile d to use its most effective weapon, the taxation(征税) of minimum price controls on alcohol.Home Secretary Alan Johnson said that the government and th e industry had a duty to act on heavy drinking." These bans hav e a real impact on society, not to mention the lives of those who just want to enjoy a good night out," he said.“The dentist's chair”, where drinks are poured directly into the m outh by others, was made famous by the celebrations of footballer Paul Gascoigne at Euro '96. That game and others that pro mote large consumption will be banned from April and publican s (酒店老板) will have to ensure free tap water is made available to the dr inkers.The government says over-drinking costs Britain up to 12 billion pounds a year and has an nounced that any pubs that go against the new mandatory code (强制性规定) will face severe punishment. For instance, publicans and ve ndors (小贩) could lose their licenses, be fined up to 20,000 pounds ($32 ,750) or face six months in prison.New rules for pubs and clubs will be introduced in to ban heavy drinking because ________.A. people drink too much without paying taxesB. drinking games are infamousC. drinking competitions are very crazyD. drinking in the country costs too muchSome people believe when the tough new rules come into effec t, ________.A. supermarkets will stop selling alcohol in low pricesB. “women drink free” nights will not be closedC. over-drinking will still not be stoppedD. under-age people will not continue drinkingWhat is probably the most effective way to control alcohol?A. bansB. educationC. forceD. taxationAccording to the passage, “the dentist’s chair” is ________.A. a chair for the patient whose teeth should be treatedB. a drinking game made famous by the celebrations of football ersC. a way to advertise different types of alcoholD. to be banned in October this yearWhat’s the main idea of the passage?A. Heavy drinking will be banned in .B. Over-drinking will be taxed.C. Drinking in will be banned.D. 12 billion pounds is spent on drinking.Part IV Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passageWrite NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. People in the honor their parents with two special days: Mother ’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June. These days are set aside to show love a nd respect for parents. They raise their children and educate th em to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These t wo days offer a chance to think about the changing roles of mot hers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. M ore fathers must help with child-care.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A. red one stands for a living mother. A. white one shows that the mother is dead. Ma ny people attend religious services（宗教仪式）to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents ar e dead visit their graves(坟). On these days, families get togeth er at home and in restaurants. They often have outdoor BBQs f or Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are val ued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of t he gift that is important, but it is “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakeries, telephones co mpanies and other stores do a lot of business during these holi days.71.Section B (10 mark.)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions a ccording to the information given in the passage.I’m not a fast reader and I don’t read as much as many other pe ople, but reading is something I enjoy. It opens new worlds to m e and widens my perspective(洞察力,眼力).Recently I found Kobo，an online book store that allows me to buy e-books and read them on a device of my choice. I’m a girl living i n , where e-books are not available and I had to buy physical books from A mazon in the past. There are two problems with it:Shipping cost. Since I live far away from the , it costs a lot to shi p a book. Shipping costs almost as much as the book itself. Shipping time. It takes about three weeks for the books to arrive through postal mail.Now with Kobo, I can eliminate those two problems. Not only do es it cost less time and money to get the books, but also I prefe r to read e-books this way than reading physical books. Here are three rea sons why:I can easily bring the books everywhere. Since all the books are in my iPod touch, I can simply put the device into my pocket an d bring it everywhere I go.The size is smaller. The size of the iPod Touch is smaller than a physical book. This makes reading more convenient for me.I can read in any position I want. The iPod has a light source, s o I can read when I am in darkness. This means that I can read in practically any position and condition.One more advantage I haven’t mentioned is space. Physical bo oks take space, but e-books don’t.81. Why does the author like reading? (no more than 11 words) _____________________________________________________ 82. What are the problems with buying physical books from Am azon? (no more than 9 words)_____________________________________________________83. How can the author read when she is in darkness? (no more than 6 words)_____________________________________________________ 84. What’s the author’s attitude towards e-books? (no more than 1 word)_____________________________________________________Section C (25 marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instru ctions given below in Chinese.随着科技的发展，iPod 已成为中学生的新宠。
