In fact, says David Dinges, a sleep specialist at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. “Theres even a prohibition (禁止 ) against admitting we n

22、eed sleep”. Nobody wants to be caught napping or found asleep at work. To quote a proverb: Some sleep five hours, nature requires seven, laziness nine and wickedness eleven Wrong. The way not to fall asleep at work is to take naps when you need them. “We have to totally change our attitude toward na

23、pping”, says Dr. William Dement of Stanford University, the godfather of sleep research. Last year a national commission led by Dement identified an “American sleep debt” which one member said was as important as the national debt; the commission was concerned about the dangers of sleepiness: people

24、 causing industrial accidents or falling asleep while driving. This may be why we have a new sleep policy in the White House. According to recent reports, President Clinton is trying to take a half hour snooze (打瞌睡 ) every afternoon. About 60 percent of American adults nap when given the opportunity

25、. We seem to have “a mid-afternoon quiet phase” also called “a secondary sleep gate.” Sleeping 15 minutes to two hours in the early afternoon can reduce stress and make us refreshed. Clearly, we were born to nap. We Superstars of Snooze dont nap to replace lost shut eye or to prepare for a night shi

26、ft. Rather, we “snack” on sleep, whenever, wherever and at whatever time we feel like it.

In the morning he seemed much occupied with business,

30、and in the afternoon gentlemen from the neighborhood called and sometimes stayed to dine with him. When his foot was well enough, he rode out a great deal. During this time, all my knowledge of him was limited to occasional meetings about the house, when he would sometimes pass me coldly, and someti

31、mes bow and smile. His changes of manner did not offend me, because I saw that I had nothing to do with the cause of them. One evening, several days later, I was invited to talk to Mr. Rochester after dinner. As I was looking at him, he suddenly turned, and asked me, “Do you think Im handsome, Miss

32、Eyre ” The answer somehow slipped from my tongue before I realized it: “No, sir.” “Ah, you really are unusual! You are a quiet, serious little person, but you can be almost rude.” “Sir, Im sorry. I should have said that beauty doesnt matter, or something like that.” “No, you shouldnt! I see, you cri

33、ticize my appearance, and then you stab me in the back! You have honesty and feeling. There are not many girls like you. But perhaps I go too fast. Perhaps you have awful faults to counterbalance your few good points.” I thought to myself that he might have too. He seemed to read my mind, and said q

34、uickly, “Yes, youre right. I have plenty of faults. I went the wrong way when I was twenty-one, and have never found the right path again. I might have been very different. I might have been as good as you, and perhaps wiser. I am not a bad man, take my word for it, but I have done wrong. It wasnt m

35、y character, but circumstances which were to blame. Why do I tell you all this Because youre the sort of person people tell their problems and secrets to, because youre sympathetic and give them hope.” “Dont be afraid of me, Miss Eyre.” He continued. “You dont relax or laugh very much, perhaps becau

36、se of the effect Logwood school has had on you. But in time you will be more natural with me, and laugh, and speak freely. Youre like a bird in cage. When you get out of the cage, youll fly very high. Good night.” 【小题 1】 At the beginning Miss Eyres impressions of Mr. Rochester were all except _. A f

37、riendly B sociable C busy D changeable 【 小题 2】 Why did Mr. Rochester say “and then you stab me in the back!” (the seventh paragraph) A Because Jane had intended to kill him with a knife. B Because Jane had intended to be more critical. C Because Jane had regretted having talked to him. D Because Jan

38、e had said something else to correct herself. 【小题 3】 From what Mr. Rochester told Miss Eyre, we can conclude that he wanted to _. A tell her all his troubles B tell her his life experience C change her opinion of him D change his circumstances 【小题 4】 At the end of the passage, Mr. Rochester sounded

39、_. A rude B cold C friendly D encouraging 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 D 【小题 1】 D Violin prodigies（神童） , I learned, have come in distinct waves from distinct regions. Most of the great performers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were born and brought up in Russia and Eastern Europe. I asked

40、 Isaac Stern, one of the worlds greatest violinists, the reason for this phenomenon. “Its very clear, “he told me. “They were all Jews and Jews at the time were severely oppressed and ill-treated in that part of the world. They were not allowed into the professional fields, but they were allowed to

41、achieve excellence on a concert stage.” As a result, every Jewish parents dream was to have a child in the music school because it was a passport to the West. Another element in the emergence of prodigies, I found, is a society that values excellence in a certain field and is able to nurture (培育 ) t

42、alent. Nowadays the most nurturing societies seem to be in the Far East. “In Japan, a most competitive society with stronger discipline than ours,” says Isaac Stern, “children are ready to test their limits every day in many fields, including music. When Western music came to Japan after World War I

43、I, that music not only became part of their daily lives, but it became a discipline as well.” The Koreans and Chinese, as we know, are just as highly motivated as the Japanese. Thats a good thing, because even prodigies must work hard. Next to hard work, biological inheritance plays an important rol

44、e in the making of a prodigy. J. S. Bach, for example, was the top of several generations of musicians, and four of his sons had significant careers in music. 【小题 1】 Jewish parents in Eastern Europe longed for their children to attend music school because _. A it would allow them access to a better

45、life in the West B Jewish children are born with excellent musical talent C they wanted their children to enter into the professional fields D it would enable the family to get better treatment in their own country 【小题 2】 Nurturing societies as mentioned in the passage refer to societies that _. A e

46、nforce strong discipline on students who want to achieve excellence B treasure talent and provide opportunities for its full development C encourage people to compete with each other D promise talented children high positions 【小题 3】 Japan is described in the passage as a country that attaches import

47、ance to _. A all-rounded development B the learning of Western music C strict training of children D variety in academic studies 【小题 4】 Which of the following contributes to the emergence of musical prodigies according to the passage A A natural gift. B Extensive knowledge of music. C Very early tra

48、ining. D A prejudice-free society. 答案： 【小题 1】 A 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 A Women are now as likely to use the Internet as menabout two -thirds of both genders, yet a new study shows that gaps remain in what each sex does online.
