18、sit at work. Not only can the stress of work leave employees 1 and turning, but sitting too far from a window can knock 46 minutes off a normal night“s sleep. Researchers found that workers forced to 2 in windowless rooms had a poorer quality of life and more erratic sleep patterns than those with 3

19、 to daylight. The findings, published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, suggest the working environment may be crucial to setting the body“s own 4 clock. Researchers say better designed offices could boost the physical and mental health of workers. “We suggest that architectural design of o

20、ffice environments should 5 sufficient daylight exposure for workers in order to 6 health and well-being,“ said Dr. Ivy Cheung of the Department of Neurology, Northwestern University, Chicago. “Office workers with more light exposure at the work place also tended to have better sleep quality, more p

21、hysical activity and a better quality of life. A sunny day is 7 about 10000 lux or higher of light. However indoor office lighting 8 provides only about 300 to 500 lux.“ Regular poor sleep raises the risk of serious medical conditions like 9 , heart disease and diabetesand can even shorten life expe

22、ctancy. “The problem with office lighting is that it is not made up of “blue“ light, which is the wavelength of light you get from the sun and which controls your body clock. So you could have a very well lit office but it does not have the same effect because it“s 10 and does not contain blue light

23、.“ （分数：71.00）填空项 1:_九、Part Reading Compr(总题数：0，分数：0.00)十、Section A(总题数：1，分数：35.50)Beavers (水獭) aren“t going to save the worldbut they are doing their bit for carbon capture and storage. The dams they build, and the wetlands produced as a result, 1 away a surprising amount of carbon. Beaver dams caus

24、e water to break riverbanks, creating areas of wetland known as beaver meadows, which 2 large amounts of sediment and organic material. If the dam breaks the meadows dry out, 3 the material to the air and releasing some of the carbon stored within them. Using 4 published carbon-content values, Ellen

25、 Wohl of Colorado State University in Fort Collins estimated the total organic content from dried-up beaver meadows in 27 drainage 5 in Rocky Mountain National Park, and found it accounted for 8 percent of the carbon in the landscape. She estimated that when the meadows were 6 they may have sequeste

26、red (隔离) as much as 23 percent of the carbon. Beaver numbers have been declining in the Park since the 1940s. Wohl says there were once between 60 and 400 million beavers in North Americaa number that would have had a significant effect on the ecosystem. There are now thought to be 6 to 12 million,

27、and the park service is working towards 7 “Beavers can transform systems 8 quickly and the long cascading (大量倾泻的) list of feedbacks and impacts of their ecosystem engineering is 9 ,“ says Joseph Wheaton of the department of watershed sciences at Utah State University in Logan. “With some 10 and chea

29、roduction O. subtle（分数：35.50）十一、Section B(总题数：1，分数：71.00)Hands-On Bavarian Count Presides Over a Pencil-Making EmpireA. Count Anton-Wolfgang von Faber-Castell has been known to hurl (猛投) wooden pencils from the tower of his castle to the stone courtyard below. It is not a petty fit of irritation by

30、a mad Bavarian aristocrat. The 72-year-old count, the eighth in a long line of pencil makers, just wants to prove how durable the pencils that carry his family name are. B. Faber-Castell is the largest maker of wood-encased (木制的) pencils in the world and also makes a broad range of pens, crayons and

31、 art and drawing supplies as well as accessories like erasers and sharpeners. About half the company“s German production is exported, mostly to other countries in the euro zone. That means that Faber-Castell contributes, at least in a small way, to Germany“s large and controversial trade surpluswhic

32、h now rivals China“s for the world“s largest. Faber-Castell illustrates how midsize companieswhich account for about 60 percent of the country“s jobsare able to stay competitive in the global marketplace. It has focused on design and engineering, developed a knack for turning everyday products into

33、luxury goods, and stuck to a conviction that it still makes sense to keep some production in Germany. C. “Why do we manufacture in Germany?“ the count asked during an interview at the family castle near the factory. “Two reasons: One, to really make the best here in Germany and to keep the know-how

34、in Germany. I don“t like to give the know-how for my best pencils away to China, for example. “Second, “Made in Germany“ still is important.“ D. In contrast to many American companies, like Apple, that have outsourced nearly all production to Asia, Faber-Castell and many other German companies make

35、a point of keeping a critical mass of manufacturing in Germany. They see it as central to preserving the link between design, engineering and the factory floor. The result is a large trade surplus. During the first nine months of the year, Germany exported goods and services worth 148 billion more t

36、han it importedincluding a surplus of 20 billion in September alone. In absolute terms, it was the largest monthly trade surplus on record. E. Germany“s trade surplus is so huge that it has drawn criticism from the United States. The European Commission is conducting an extensive review of whether i

37、t is unhealthy for the euro zone economy. Critics say Germany should invest more of the profits from exports at home, to stimulate its own economy and, by extension, the rest of the euro zone. But companies like Faber-Castell are more concerned about their ability to stay globally competitive, leavi

38、ng the macroeconomics of trade to the bureaucrats of Brussels and Berlin. F. There are threats everywhere, including ever-more-sophisticated competitors, the stagnant euro zone economy and unpredictable shifts in technology. And when even preschool children know how to operate iPads, there is no cer

39、tainty of a future for colored pencils and ink markers. “The biggest challenge for Faber-Castell will be how writing will develop with the advent of digital technology,“ said Hermann Simon, a management consultant who coined the term “hidden champions“ to describe the highly focused, midsize compani

40、es like Faber-Castell that drive the German economy. “Will children still write? But Faber-Castell recognizes this challenge.“ G. Still, Faber-Castell, founded in 1761 when graphite (石墨) pencils were a novelty, has overcome technological shifts before. When Count Anton took over the business in 1978

41、, after the death of his father, Count Roland von Faber-Castell, the company was a leading maker of slide rules. That was soon laid to waste by the electronic calculator. Then, in the 1980s, the advent of computer-assisted design soon gutted the market for its mechanical drawing products. H. With he

42、lp from the Boston Consulting Group and the company“s in-house designers, the count adjusted the product line to put more emphasis on higher-priced products, ranging from colored pencils for artists to fountain pens selling for thousands of dollars. Premium (优质的) products account for about 10 percen

43、t of sales. “You have to continuously shift,“ said Count Anton, who on this day wore a double-breasted pinstriped (有细条纹的) suit with red tie and white pocket handkerchief. “If you lean back and say, “With my products I can be happy,“ then it“s the first step to hell.“ I. While the basic design of a p

44、encil has not changed much in 400 years, Faber-Castell has managed to find ways to be unique. For example, in the late 1990s, it developed a triangular pencil with raised dots that make it easier to hold. That proved popular. Innovations include the use of water-based coatings to make pencils more e

45、nvironmentally friendly, as well as nontoxic (无毒的) to compulsive pencil chewers. To demonstrate the harmlessness of the ink Faber-Castell uses in children“s markers, Count Anton drank a glassful on camera this year. J. The count“s pedigree (血统) sets him apart from the typical factory bosses. But bei

46、ng an aristocrat in Germany no longer means much, at least not officially. The nobility lost its privileges after World War I, and most of Germany“s remaining princes and barons have to work for a living. Faber-Castell was founded by Kasper Faber, a carpenter“s apprentice. His great-grandson Lothar

47、Faber was given noble status in 1861 by King Maximilian of Bavaria after building the company into the world“s dominant pencil maker. Later generations intermarried with the aristocratic Castell clan, creating the Faber-Castell name. (Eberhard Faber pencils, recognized by generations of American sch

48、oolchildren, were made by Lothar“s younger brother, who first set up shop in Brooklyn.) K. And yet, being a count still counts for something. The company“s luxury products are called the Graf yon Faber-Castell line“graf“ being German for “count“. The company recently unveiled a Graf von Faber-Castel

49、l fountain pen made of jasper (碧玉), quartz and gold. It sells for almost $10000. Even boxes of the highest-quality Faber-Castell colored pencils and artists“ markers can easily cost hundreds of dollars. It is this focus on the premium end of the market that has enabled German companies to survive in markets flooded by low-cost Asian alternatives. Mercedes and Audi cars are good examples of this, but German companies have also achieved similar success with more mundane produ
