 阅读下列短文 ，从每题所给的四个选项 （A 、B 、C  和 D ）中 ，选出最佳选项 ，并在 题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
A recent research shows that the “short sleepers” had been more or less average in their sleep needs until the men were in their teens. But at the age of 15 or so，the men voluntarily began cutting down their nightly sleep time because of pressures from school，work，and other activities. These men tended to view their nightly periods of unconsciousness as interruptions in their daily routines.
In general，these “short sleepers” appeared ambitious，active，energetic，cheerful，and very sure about their career choices. They often held several jobs at once，or worked full­or part­time while going to school. And many of them had a strong urge to appear “normal” or “acceptable” to their family，friends and so on.
When asked to recall their dreams，the “short sleepers” did poorly. More than this，they seemed to prefer not remembering. In similar situation，their usual way of dealing with psychological problems was to deny that the problem existed，and then to keep busy in the hope that the trouble would go away.
The sleep patterns of the “short sleepers” were similar to，but less extreme than，sleep patterns shown by many mental patients.
The “long sleepers” were quite different indeed. The research shows that these young men had been lengthy sleeps since childhood. They seemed to enjoy their sleep，protected it，and were quite concerned when they were occasionally robbed of their desired 9 hours of nightly bed rest. They tended to recall their dreams much better than did the “short sleepers”．
21．Many “short sleepers” were likely to hold the view that________．
A．sleep could make people appear active and cheerful
B．sleep was the least important on their daily routines
C．they were acceptable to all their friends and family
D．they were less extreme than many mental patients
22．According to the report，________．
A．many “short sleepers” needed less sleep before they were teenagers
B．many “short sleepers” were forced to reduce their nightly sleep time
C．many “long sleepers” were quite concerned when they slept 9 hours
D．many “long sleepers” had kept their sleeping habits since childhood
23．What is the purpose of writing this passage?
A．To introduce the result of a recent research.
B．To advise people to sleep for a longer time.
C．To show the disadvantages of short sleeping.
D．To explain the advantages of long sleeping.
24．It can be concluded from the third paragraph that________．
A. “short sleepers” dealt with the psychological trouble themselves
B．“short sleepers” were unwilling to face psychological problems
C．“short sleepers” shortened the sleeping time because of pressures
D．“short sleepers” would rather remember than forget their dreams

B
One afternoon Peter and Jim went out for a bicycle ride. When they passed a place they saw a large area of grass and bushes on fire and a strong wind was blowing the flames towards a village. The firemen had already arrived and were trying to put out the fire. The boys left their bicycles and ran towards the village to see if they could help to fight the fire. On the way they met two firemen.
“Quick, you boys,” said one of the firemen. “Come and help us to pull a pump (泵) to the stream. We can’t beat out the fire. The wind is too strong. The pump is our only hope.”
The two boys ran further until they came to a heavy pump. They helped to pull it to a stream not far from the village.
Soon the pump was working well so the boys went to watch the fire. It had already reached the edge of the village. The boys saw that two houses were on fire, and the flames were attacking a third building. Suddenly there was a shout from one of the villagers.
“Keep away!” a voice shouted. “There’s paint stored in that building.” The boys and villagers moved away quickly. With a loud explosion (爆炸), the whole building burst into flames, sending clouds of thick black smoke into the sky.
At this time Peter and Jim began to think that the whole village would be burnt to the ground. The firemen had left the burning buildings and were pouring (浇) water onto the neighboring houses, trying to stop the fire from spreading. Then the wind died down. A second pump was brought up to help, and the fire was gradually put out.
“It’s soon finished,” Peter said to his friend. “We must go or we shall get home late.” “Yes, come on,” agreed Jim, and with a last look at the ruins, they walked back to their bicycles.

C
Alice always wanted to be a singer. Music was the most important thing in her life, but to tell you the truth, she took lessons for years, practiced every day, but in spite of all this, her voice didn’t improve. Honestly, it didn’t get better, it just got louder.
Her teacher finally gave up and stopped the lessons, but Alice refused to quit (放弃), and one day she decided to give a concert and invited her mere (唯一的) teacher to attend.
The teacher was very worried about what to say after the performance. She knew it would be terrible and it was. She didn’t want to tell a lie, but she didn’t want to hurt Alice’s feelings either. Finally, she got an idea and went backstage (后台) to greet her former pupil.
“Well,” said Alice, “what did you think of my performance?”
“My dear,” said the teacher, “you’ll never be better than you were tonight.”
29. Alice’s teacher stopped the lessons because .
A. Alice didn’t make any improvement in singing

C. Alice didn’t work hard enough
D. Alice was so proud and wouldn’t listen to her
30. Why did Alice want to be a singer?
A. Because she was good at singing.
B. Because she could do nothing but sing.
C. Because she had a good teacher.
D. Because she was most interested in music.
31. What is really mean by saying “you’ll never be better than you were tonight”?
A. You have given an excellent performance tonight.
B. You haven’t made any improvement and neither will you.
C. You have never sung so well before.

D
We all have our ways of marking time. As a photographer，my life is measured from one story to the next. My oldest son was born in the middle of a long story about the Endangered Species Act. My daughter came along with a pack of gray wolves.
Twenty stories later，though，it’s the story in Alaska that I’ll remember best. It was the story about the loss of wilderness—and the story during which my wife Kathy got cancer. That’s the one that made time stand still. I stopped taking pictures on the day when she found that tumor (肿瘤)．Cruelly，it was Thanksgiving. By Christmas，she had become very weak. Some days she was so sick she couldn’t watch TV.
Early examination saves time. But ours was not early. By the time you can feel it yourself，it’s often bigger than the doctor want it to be.
Cancer is a thief. It steals time. Our days are already short with worry. Then comes this terrible disease，unfair as storm at harvest time. But cancer also has the power to change us，for good. We learn to simplify，enjoying what we have instead of feeling sorry for what we don’t. Cancer even made me a better father. My work had made me a stranger to my three kids. But now I pay attention to what really matters. This is not a race. This is a new way of life and new way of seeing，all from the cancer.
In the end each of us has so little time. We have less of it than we can possibly imagine. And even though it turns out that Kathy’s cancer has not spread，and her prognosis (诊断) is good，we try to make it all count now，enjoying every part of every day.
I’ve picked up my camera again. I watch the sky，searching for beautiful light. When winter storms come，Kathy and I gather our children and take the time to catch snowflakes (雪花) on our tongues. After all，this is good. This is what we’re living for.
33．What is the biggest change the cancer has brought to the author?
A．He treasured every bit of time with his family.
B．He has become a stranger to his children.
C．He takes his work more seriously.
D．He focuses more on medical care.
34．As a photographer，the author used to________．
A．leave his daughter with a pack of gray wolves
B．express his love for his family in a special way
C．miss a great many important historical moments
D．devote much more to his career than his family
35．Why did the author decide to stop taking pictures?
A．To cure his own disease.
B．To spend more time with his wife.
C．To seek a better position.
D．To leave the wilderness alone.

How to Eat Slowly to Avoid Overeating
Eating slowly can help you to better understand your real hunger signals and recognize reasons for faster eating，such as emotions or simply liking the taste of food. However，eating slowly is not a decision that you make suddenly. ____36____
Adjust your mind. Do not even attempt to acquire the habit of eating slowly before you’re mentally ready. Relax and use your imagination to create mental images that your brain will remember. As part of this mental process，imagine yourself lean and fit.
____37____Eating slowly isn’t just about slowing down the chewing；it’s also about slowing down your food choices. As you pick out the processed food，replace it with healthy，unprocessed or less processed choices.
Always relax before you start eating. Take a few deep breaths through the nose，not through the mouth. As you do so，
