18、ome by 10 oclock. OK, Mom, I will. A / B me C this D one 答案： A 阅读理解 Advice to “sleep on it” could be well founded, scientists say. After a good nights sleep, a problem, which couldnt be solved the night before, can often seem more manageable, although the evidence until now has been anecdotal (个人体验的

19、 ). But researchers, at the University of Luebek in Germany, have designed an experiment that shows a good nights sleep can improve insight (顿悟 ) and problem-solving. “If you have some newly-got memories in your brain, sleep acts on these memories and restructures (重新组织 ) them, and as a result, afte

20、r sleep, the insight into problem which you could not solve before increases,” said Dr Jan Born, a neuroscientist (神经科学家 ), at the university. To test the theory, they taught volunteers two simple rules to help them turn a string of (一连串 ) numbers into a new order. There was also a third, hidden rul

21、e, which could help them increase their speed in solving the problem. The researchers divided the volunteers into two groups: Half were allowed to sleep after the training, while the rest were forced to stay awake. Dr Jan Born and his team noticed that the group that had slept after the training wer

22、e twice as likely to figure out (想出 ) the third rule as the other group. “Sleep helped,” Born said in a telephone interview. “The important thing is that you have to have a memory representation (描绘，表现 ) of the problem you want to solve in your brain and then you sleep, so it can act on the problem.

23、” But Born admitted that he and his team dont know how restructuring of memories occurs or what governs it. Pierre Maquet and Perrine Ruby of the University of Liege in Belgium said the experimental evidence supports the anecdotal suggestions that sleep can help develop creative thinking. Although t

24、he role of sleep in human creativity will still be a mystery, the research gives people good reason to fully respect their periods of sleep, they added. 57. The underlined phrase “sleep on it” in Paragraph 1 probably means _. A. to delay deciding something until the next day B. to get as much sleep

25、as possible C. to go on sleeping without being disturbed D. to sleep till after the time you usually get up in the morning 58. Jan Born and his team carried out the experiment through _. A. comparison B. interview C. survey D. imagination 59. It can be inferred from the passage that _. A. people sho

26、uld sleep so long as they have time B. sleep is the only way to solve hard problems C. people have various periods of sleep D. people know how sleep reconstructs memories 60.

The company behind the machine says not only does it offer an alternative to bottled water in developed countries, but it is a solution for the millions who face a daily water shortage.

43、题 4】 B Why People Get Tattoos Jack lay, quiet and unmoving, for thirty minutes while a stranger repeatedly stabbed (刺 ) him with sharp needles, causing blood to pour steadily out of his leg. Jack was getting a tattoo. His friend Tony had recently gotten a tattoo, and Jack was so impressed by it that

44、 he decidedto get one too. Peer pressure, media influence, and personal expression are some of the common reasons for wearing tattoos today. The desire to be accepted by ones friends or peers can have a great influence on what a person does. Sometimes, wearing a tattoo can be a sign that you belong

45、to a certain group. Gangs often use special clothes and tattoos to identify their particular group. Some of these groups wear only brandname clothes. Others wear tattoos. When a persons friends are all doing something, that person is more likely to do the same thing. The media is another big influen

46、ce behind the popularity of tattoos in North America. A wide variety of media images (人物，图像 ) show tattoos-people appearing in commercials selling expensive cars, famous sports heroes with tattoos in magazines, fashion models wearing designer clothes that show their bodies tattooed with detailed and

47、 colorful patterns. These media images link tattoos to ideas of wealth, success, and status. As a result, many people decide to get a tattoo for its fashion and status value.
