    16．Sleeping in on Saturday after a few weeks of too little shuteye may feel refreshing，but it can give a false sense of security．
    New research shows long-term sleep loss cannot be cured that easily．Scientists researched the effects of short-and long-term sleep loss and found that those who suffer long-term sleep loss may function normally soon after waking up，but experience steadily slower reaction times as the day goes by，even if they had tried to catch up the previous night．
    The research has important safety significances in an increasingly busy society，not just for shift-workers but for the roughly one in six Americans who regularly get six hours or less of sleep a night．
    "We know that staying awake 24 hours without sleep will affect your performance to do all sorts of things，and this effect equals to drinking too much when driving，"said lead researcher Dr．Daniel Cohen of Boston's Brigham and Women's Hospital．But when those who suffer long-term sleep loss become all-nighters，"the harm is increased ten times，"Cohen said．
    The National Institutes of Health says adults need seven hours to nine hours of sleep for good health．Regularly getting too little sleep increases the risk of health problems，including memory impairment and a weakened immune system．More immediately，too little sleep affects reaction times； sleepiness is to blame for car crashes and other accidents．
    It has critically important complicated and unexpected results for anyone who works"crazy hours"and thinks they are performing fine with a few hours of weeknight sleep，said Harris，director at New York's Montefiore Medical Center．"Don't think you can just bank up your sleep on the weekend，because it doesn't work that way，"he warned．
    61．The text mainly advises peopleC．
    A．to sleep more time                         
    B．to sleep in on Saturday
    C．to sleep scientifically                     
    D．to sleep little on weekend
    62．People with long-term sleep lossB．
    A．are quicker in thinking                   
    B．may feel refreshed soon after waking up
    C．are surely energetic                        
    D．can have a strong sense of security
    63．What can we learn from the text？B
    A．Most of the Americans get six hours or less of sleep a night．
    B．Staying up is worse for those who suffer long-term sleep loss．
    C．Traffic accidents have little to do with sleepiness．
    D．One in six Americans are all-nighters．
    64．Which of the following is the immediate effect of long-term sleep loss？C
    A．Health problems                            
    B．Immune system
    C．Reaction times                              
    D．Memory impairment
    65．The underlined phrase"bank up"in the last paragraph most probably meansA．
    A．pile up      B．pick up      C．add up               D．build up．

    17．Four Habits to Help You Succeed
    We all want to succeed，whether it's in losing weight or learning the guitar．For those who have tried and failed，success seems difficult to understand．Why does one person succeed while another person fails？（36）E
    1．Identify your core（核心）values．
    Finding your core values is in line with creating inner motivation．（37）C Pick a handful of things and actually write them down．Remind yourself of your values every day，and reflect on whether you are honoring those values through your work．
    2．Pick a goal and focus on it．
    Choose one goal to start something large enough that will give you a sense of accomplishment，while adjusting well to your core values．Focus is key here．（38）F If you perform many tasks at a time，you might never complete your projects because they will take far too long．
    3．Set a deadline for success．
    Set a date for success．Identify when you hope to achieve your goal．（39）D By setting a time limit，you are making the process more real．
    4．（40）A
    Failure can't be avoided when you take risks．By its very definition，the desire to succeed means you are risking failure．Many people tend to give up far too early．Don't fall into this trap!Remember your mindset earlier．Know it will happen．A failure is merely you working out the details，and learning what works and what doesn't．Use failure．Treat it as a good thing，and march on!

    A．Stick to your goal．
    B．Make the right decision．
    C．Sit and reflect on what you value most．
    D．Keep it realistic，while not giving you too much time．
    E．I've made a list of four habits to help you set goals and achieve them．
    F．The more focused you are on one goal，the higher chance you have of success．
    G．Push yourself to be courageous，and take that next step．

    6．We've been covering standing desks for a long time now because experts agree that sitting all day is killing us．We want to be productive while also keeping our bodies healthy．Over the years，there have been several solutions to this from fixed standing desks to adjustable ones，portable desks to ones that change into shelves．
    However，the most high tech and elegant solution has to be this new smart desk called The Stir Kinetic Desk．The desk learns your daily behaviors and moves between a sitting and standing height regularly throughout the day to keep you moving without interrupting your work flow．
    You can program specific sitting and standing intervals or let the desk set the schedule．If you tend to sit while returning emails in the morning，but always want to stand during that afternoon conference call，the desk will learn those regular habits and adjust the schedule to fit them．Of course，the desk can always be manually lowered or raised by using the touch screen on the lower left comer of the desk．
    When switching positions，the desk gently dips and rises to let you know that a change is coming up．If you're not ready to switch positions at that time，you can tap the touchscreen to stay sitting or standing for a while longer．
    The built．in touchscreen also keeps track of your daily sitting and standing times and tells you how many calories you've burned．You can even set goals for how long or often you want to stand．The desk also works with fitness devices like the FitBit to track your movements．
    All of that smart tech doesn't come cheap though．The M1 desk，which is the everyday model，runs a steep 2，990，whilethemoreexecutivemodelwithaddedfeatures，theF1，goesfor4，190．
    While expensive，it's worth thinking of how much time we spend at our desks．Much like a good mattress（床垫），a good desk that works with you is worth the investment．Hopefully in a few years these smart，integrated desks will be more common and less expensive．

    32．The Stir Kinetic Desk has been designed toC．
    A．help users with their work 
    B．keep users moving all the time
    C．get users to exercise while working 
    D．remind users of their working schedule
    33．Which is the feature of the touchscreen of the deskB？
    A．It can tell users when to change positions．
    B．It can track users'changes of positions．
    C．It can keep users in a fixed position．
    D．It can detect users'health condition．
    34．Which of the following can best describe the deskD？
    A．Productive but challenging． 
    B．Convenient but unaffordable．
    C．Complex and impractical．
    D．Multi-functional and intelligent．
    35．What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraphA？
    A．To spend money on such a desk is rewarding．
    B．We should get such a desk as soon as possible．
    C．It won't be long before the desk is widely used．
    D．Desks play a very important role in our daily life．

    13．Every morning，some people may have the habit of watching the astrological （占星术的）advice on the TV news before they go to work．When reading magazines，some people might first go to the section on astrological predictions to determine what's in store for them in the coming day，week or month．This interest in astrology is especially strong at the beginning of a new year．Immediately before a new year，many astrological experts are making predictions and giving advice．It seems that astrology is gaining popularity，but how popular is astrology and is it actually trustworthy？
    According to a study by searchterms．com，the word astrology is the most searched topic on the Internet，and a search for astrology on Google will bring up nearly two million websites．A study by the newspaper USA Today shows that a third of all Americans believe in astrology and spend almost $100million a year on it．More surprisingly，the fastest-growing group of believers in America is made up of managers and professionals．No wonder Donald Regan，former White House Chief of Staff，said，"It's common knowledge that a large percentage of Wall Street brokers use astrology．"
    The most famous astrologer is Nostradamus．Long ago，he correctly predicted events such as the Second World War，the killing of U．S．President John F．Kennedy，and most recently，the attack on the World Trade Center．Another famous astrologer，Frau Elsbeth Ebertin，accurately predicted that Adolph Hitler would become Führer-the leader after she was given Hitler's birth chart．In fact，Hitler himself was a believer in astrology．It's thought that he used an astrologer throughout the Second World War．The wife of former American president Ronald Reagan，Nancy，was also a firm believer in astrology．She employed an astrologer to ask about President Reagan's future safety after the president was shot．
    Though some people may consider astrology superstitious （迷信的），others think it is both a science and an art．Since the moon has an effect on the ocean，and 75percent of the human body is made up of water，it is reasonable to say that astrology，a study of the stars，may affect humans as well．Therefore，if viewed in this way，astrology may be believable and it is easy to see why it is so popular．
    36．What is the main idea of the article？B
    A．More and more people，especially stars，are interested in astrology．
    B．Astrology is becoming popular and has some basis in science．
    C．Famous astrologers can predict events correctly．
    D．People should use astrology every day．
    37．Which of the following events was NOT predicted by Nostradamus？D
    A．The terrorist attack on the World Trade Center．
    B．The killing of President Kennedy．
    C．The outbreak of World WarⅡ．
    D．The birth of Führer Hitler．
    38．What can we learn from the passage？A
    A．Astrology is one of the most popular topics on the Internet．
    B．Astrology can help change people's lives for the better．
    C．Only a few Wall Street brokers use astrology．
    D．Most of Americans believe in astrology．
    39．The author tends to think astrology isC．
    A．boring         B．puzzling               C．believable             D．strange．

    10．Archaeologists（考古学家） studying Stonehenge and its surrounding area say they've dug up the relics of an untouched，ancient campsite that dates back to 6，000years--a find that could rewrite British prehistory．
    "This is the most important discovery at Stonehenge in over 60years，"Professor Tim Darvill，a Bournemouth University archaeologist and a Stonehenge expert who did not take part in the new discovery，told the Telegraph．And as he told The Huffington Post in an email，the discovery changes earlier theories that Stonehenge was built in a landscape that was not heavily used before about 3000B．C．
    The discovery was made during a dig at Blick Mead，a site about 1.5miles from Stonehenge．Researchers found charcoal（木炭） dating back to 4，000B．C．and evidence of possible buildings，according to a statement released by the university．They also dug up burnt stone and tools，as well as the remains of animals--ancient cattle that served as food for ancient hunter-gatherers．
    The researchers plan further analysis on the artificial objects but say they're worried the tunnel construction （隧道建设）could damage the site and get in the way of their work．
    "Blick Mead could explain what archaeologists have been searching for centuries--an answer to the story of Stonehenge's past，"David Jacques，the University of Buckingham archaeologist who discovered the campsite，told The Guardian．"But our only chance to find out about the earliest part of Britain's history could be ruined if the tunnel goes ahead．"
    Stonehenge，a prehistoric monument made up of a ring of standing stones，lies eight miles north of Salisbury，England in Wiltshire．It has been listed as a World Heritage Site since 1986．

    62．The main purpose of the passage isA
    A．to introduce a recent discovery of ancient relics
    B．to call on people to protect the ancient relics
    C．to warn the researchers not to do further analysis
    D．to attract more tourists to visit Stonehenge
    63．We can learn from the passage thatA．
    A．the researchers express their concern that the relics might be ruined
    B．the ancient campsite has been destroyed by the construction workers
    C．archaeologists are repairing artificial objects founded in the relic site
    D．the tunnel construction rewrites the earliest part of Britain's history
    64．In which section of a newspaper can we read this passage？D
    A．Travel．
    B．Business．
    C．Lifestyle．
    D．Culture．
    65．What might be the best title for the passage？B
    A．Stonehenge Is In Danger of Being Destroyed Because Of the Find．
    B．New Stonehenge Discovery Described As Most Important In 60years．
    C．A New Tunnel Is Being Constructed Under Stonehenge．
