【题目】Whether you prefer burning the midnight oil or going to bed early so you can get up at the break of dawn depends on your genes, according to experts.

I jump out of bed each morning, eager to start an active day. But I can hear my neighbor’s alarm clock ringing non-stop every morning and I doubt he gets to work on time.

A lot of noise comes from his flat in the evening. He’s happy to stay up watching TV till after midnight, while I go to bed early and try to sleep.

Well, it might not be his fault after all. I’m called“a lark (百灵鸟)”and my neighbor“an owl (猫头鹰)”

We all have inside “clocks”in the brain to control all kinds of bodily functions and it is reset every day by light. These inside clocks run to a different schedule in “larks” and “owls”. If you have a fast clock, you like to do things early, and if you have a slow clock, you like to do things late.

Because we live in a 24/7 world, scientists believe it’s important to understand a person’s “chronotype?—the time of the day when they function the best. It could help us lead a healthier life.

A US professor has studied sleeping patterns and thinks work times should be changed and made more individual to fit in with our chronotypes.

And he has advice for those who can’t choose their working hours:“If that’s not possible, we should be more careful about light exposure,” says the professor. “You should try to go to work not in a covered vehicle but on a bike. The minute the sun sets we should use things that have no blue light, like computer. . . screens and other electronic devices.”

1How is the passage mainly developed?

A. By presenting and solving problems.

B. By explaining the cause-effect relationship.

C. By giving examples and drawing a conclusion.

D. By analyzing differences and providing advice.

2What does the underlined phrase “burning the midnight oil” in Paragraph1probably mean?

A. drilling for oil in the midnight

B. using too much oil in the midnight

C. staying up late

D. getting up late

3We can learn from the passage that the author’s neighbour

A. almost always gets to work on time

B. has to work deep into the night every day

C. is passive during the day but energetic at night

D. is easily woken up by his alarm clock in the morning

4Things with blue light are not recommended after sunset because blue light .

A. may cause sleep problems

While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre(轮胎) of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please. I insist.” Jimmy agreed.
Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applications waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed look on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.
Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.
“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.

【题目】Our character, basically, is made up of our habits. "Sow a habit, reap (收获) a character: sow a character reap a destiny (命运)," as the saying goes.

1Because they are often unconscious patterns, they constantly daily affect our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness.

As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, "Hahits are like a cable. We weave a rope of it every day and soon it cannot be broken. "Habits can be learned. But we know it isn't a quick fix.2.

Many of us have watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11.3But to get there. those astronauts had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, than was used over the next several days to travel half million miles.

4Getting rid of bad habits really requires great willpower and some changes in our lives. lift-off takes tremendous effort, but once we break out of the pull of gravity, we can enjoy great freedom.

Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go. But it is also gravity pull that keeps our world together and keeps the planets in their orbits.5We can use the gravity pull of habit to create the order necessary to establish effectiveness in our lives.

A. It involves a process and a great effort.

B. Habits are powerful factors in our lives.

C. Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull.

D. It is a powerful force if we use it effectively.

E. We should try our best to get rid of our bad habits.

F. To break out of the pull of gravity needs great efforts.

G. We were surprised to see the first men walk on the moon.
