2、r Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage One 0 An American researcher has developed a simple device to help stop snoring(打鼾 ). The device restricts the movements of the tissue(器官组织 )that causes the bad sound. Snoring is a common problem. It may prevent a person from getting enough slee

3、p. It may also prevent enough oxygen from reaching the heart and lungs during the sleep. But for most people, snoring affects relations with another person who must sleep in the same room. Snoring happens when the sleeping person breathes with the mouth open. In the back of the mouth the tissues sur

4、rounding the entrance of the throat are soft. As the person breathes, the movement of the air around the soft tissues causes them to move or vibrate. This tissue movement causes the sound we call snoring. A number of possible solutions have been proposed. Some devices keep the mouth shut. They force

5、 the patient to breathe only through the nose. A medical operation is also possible. Other devices listen for the sound of snoring and then wake the patient. The new anti-snoring device was developed by a dentist(牙医 ), George Wagner of the Indiana University School of Dentistry. He developed a piece

6、 of plastic that fits up against the inside of the mouth. The device keeps the soft tissues from vibrating and making the snoring noise. It is worn only at night.

Passage Two 5 Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is

10、settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it: the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of tr

11、ying it on proceeds at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyones satisfaction. Slight problems may begin for a man when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the s

12、alesman always tries to sell the customer something else he offers the nearest he can to the article required. Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she

13、 wants, and she is only “having a look round“. She is always open to persuasion: indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. Upper-most in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most

14、 women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a laborious(

15、费劲的 )process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands. 6 When men buy clothes,_. （ A） they choose things the salesman recommends （ B） they buy right size things without trying them on （ C） they buy good quality things without a second consideration （

16、 D） they do not mind how much they have to pay for the right things 7 What is the mens concern in terms of the fit of new clothes? （ A） They make sure what fits before going shopping. （ B） They do not worry whether a thing fits well or not. （ C） They like their clothes to be bigger than the average

18、welcome suggestions from anyone around. 9 It is implied in the passage that women_. （ A） like to buy cheap clothes （ B） always buy good quality clothes regardless of the price （ C） tend to waste money on clothes which they dont really want （ D） think more of the price of clothes than of their colors

19、 and sizes 10 Which of the following indicates the difference between men and women shoppers? （ A） Men do not try clothes on while women do. （ B） Women tend to be more talkative than men. （ C） Men do not spend as much time on buying. （ D） Women buy what they need but men do not.

Please write your answers on Answer Sheet 2. 45 One of Natures most exciting mysteries is how pigeons find their way home over vast distances. Now German scientists believe they have discove

45、red how the birds do it. Research has revealed that tiny iron structures in their beaky(鸟嘴 )allow them to analyze the earths magnetic field much like a compass(罗盘 ). Through the signals picked up, the birds can work out where they are and set out on the best course home. As well as pigeons, many oth

46、er birds display a remarkable ability to fly thousands of miles to return to a specific garden or tree year after year. Scientists are suggesting they may have similar iron-containing cells in their beaks. In the past, experts have suggested the birds use the sun and stars to navigate, although in 2

47、004 researchers found that many follow roads rather than their internal compass to plan their route. However, scientists have long believed that they can in some way use the natural magnetism of the earth to navigate. The recent study by German scientists has revealed how this may be possible. The r

48、esearch used X-rays to examine the upper beaks of pigeons. They found that within the skin lining are tiny iron-containirg particles(微粒 )in nerve branches which are arranged in a 3D pattern. The team, led by Gerta Fleissner, concluded that this allows the birds to react to the external magnetic fiel

49、d of the planet and work out their precise location. She pointed out that similar iron-containing cells had been found in the beaks of robins, warblers and chickens so it may well turn out to be the way that other species also navigate. Scientists are still discovering more about the incredible abilities of the pigeon. Questions: 46 Pigeons find their way home by picking up signals f
