第三部分 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The Ostrich Pillow was created by a European designer，who wanted to find a creative way to provide people with the health and productivity benefits commonly associated with power napping（小憩）．Power napping is as important as normal sleep．Only when you're done with a power nap，are you expected to actually work better．
When you wake up from a normal nap，it's completely OK to glance around the room，confirm that John Hodgman riding a unicorn（独角兽）was just an amazing dream，and then roll over to fall back asleep．

But the Ostrich Pillow is specifically designed for those shorter periods of rest-the power naps-and the creators say that their invention allows you to sleep anytime，anywhere by creating a“little private space within a public one，to relax and rest．”
Perhaps this says a lot about people's attitudes toward napping and the importance of taking a little nap during the busy workday．The advertisement for the Ostrich Pillow even claims that a 20-minute power nap can increase productivity by 37％．
Amazing!I can only dream of all the things I would get done at the office if I actually worked at 37％productivity．And to think，all I need is a quick nap as soon as I get to my desk!
In general，the Ostrich Pillow seems like a great idea．It's convenient．It's comfortable．It has a place for your hands．But the big question is whether people will actually wear it in public．
Nevertheless，I'm still hoping to get my hands on、one of these to give it a proper test drive．But，until then，if you need me，I'll be sleeping buried on my desk !
56．According to the passage，we can learn that ．
A．the Ostrich Pillow can help people sleep longer

C．Convenient and comfortable． D．Special and attractive．
59．What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．The writer has got an Ostrich Pillow．
B．The writer is willing to have a drive test．
C．The writer will be sleeping on his desk without that．
D．The writer expects to own an Ostrich Pillow．
60．What might be the author's purpose of writing the text?
A．To introduce an invention for power snapping．
B．To advertise a new invention——the Ostrich Pillow．
C．To inform people the importance of power snapping．
D．To tell people a better way of keeping power snapping．

Fernando and I were arguing about why I never took any real vacations．When he suggested we go off somewhere for three entire weeks，“You decide，”I said．
He chose a little fishing village off the coast and he planned out a schedule．Our trip was full of wormer and fun，but when we got there，the shabby hotel failed to satisfy us，so we left a day early for the beach．As we drove，we passed two orphanages（孤儿院）．Christmas was only a few days away，and I felt that I should stop to do something for the children．
Then Femando came up with a plan to help the poor children we saw．We made a list of names，and then we went into town to buy new clothes，toys，and school supplies．For the rest of the day，we filled backpacks．We were excited about the celebration we had plantted for the next day，December 26，when we'd invite the families to the beach in front of the hotel and hand out the presents．
Fernando and I were still in bed at around 9：00 the next morning when we heard a cracking sound．“What is that?”I asked．As if in response．water started pouring into our room．The children's backpacks we had arranged so neatly on the floor began floating around．The next thing I knew was that the roof was torn off．and Fernando and I were swept out．
I thought I was going to die．
Under the water, I forced myself to calm down and then I popped out．Suddenly I saw Fernando only four feet away．
“What just happened?”I asked Fernando．
“Tsunami（海啸）!”，he shouted to me．“Just be strong．Whatever it was，”he told me，“It's all over now．”But a few seconds later，another wave buried us．I tried to grab him as he reached out to me，but he fell back under the water，and I never saw him again．

American officials have sharply reduced their expecmtions for this year's corn and soybean crops．Farmers in the Midwest are struggling with record heat and the worst drought（干旱）in many years．
The United States is the world's largest producer of com and soybeans．Last Friday the Agriculture Department predicted corn production would add up to 10．8 billion bushels this year．That was down 17％from a prediction made just a month ago．And it was down 13％from last year's level．The average yield（产量）per hectare could be the lowest in seventeen years．
At the sarne time，the government predicted that soybean production would be 12％ lower than last year．
The price of corn has hit record levels．Corn is a major part of animal feed，so the price of meat，milk and eggs is also expected to climb．
The FAO says average food prices worldwide rose 6％in July．The American drought was a big reason．
The situation has renewed the fight between food and fuel．About 40％of the nation's corn crop goes into making ethanol（乙醇）．The production process leaves some of that in a form that can be fed to animals．Still，at least one-fourth of the American corn crop is now made into fuel．
The United States requires that part of its corn crop be used in the production of biofuels（生物燃料）．The use of ethanol has grown as government requirements have increased．But Jose，the head of the FAO called for“an immediate，temporary pause”of that requirement．He said more o
