According to a 2014poll（民意调查） by the National Sleep Foundation，nearly 4in 5Americans  don't get as much sleep as they should during the workweek On average，adults are thought to need at  least eight hours of sleep a night，although some can manage with less and some won't do well without  more．But the survey found that，on workdays，only 21% of Americans actually get a full eight hours of sleep，and another 21% get Iess than six
To many of us，the thought of spending more time sleeping is t  well，a big yawn  On the other  hand，the thought of being smarter，thinner，healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal．And those  are just a few of the advantages that can be ours if we consistently get enough sleep，researchers say Also on the plus side：We're Likely to have better skin，better memories better judgement，and，oh，yes，longer lives
"When you lose even one hour of sleep for any reason   it influences your performance the next day，"said Dr Alon Avidan，director of the UCLA Sleep Disorders Center．
A study published last year found the same to be true even of children．When kids aged 8t0 12  slept for just one hour less for four nights，they didn't function as well during the day．
But sleeping has an image problem"We see napping or steeping as lazy，"said Jennfer Vriend，a clinical psychologist in Ottawa，Canada，and the leading author of the study with children"We put so much emphasis on diet，nutrition and exercise．Sleep is in the back seat．""In fact，"she added，"no  matter how much we work out，no matter how well we eat，we can't be in top physical shape unless we
also get plenty  of sleep"

分析作者通过一项调查说明如今的人们缺乏睡眠的现象十分严重，唤醒人们对于充足睡眠的意识．

解答 CBCAD
26：C   推断题．由第一段第一句"March 21 has been declared World Sleep Day，a time to recognize and celebrate the value of sleep"可知，3月21日被宣布为世界睡眠日，是一个认识和赞美睡眠价值的日子，由此可以推之，很多睡眠专家希望可以通过这样一个宣传日来吸引更多人对于睡眠的关注，所以C项正确．A项"唤醒睡眠者"，B项"用作一个叫醒电话"，D项"声明这个特殊的一天"，均不合语境．故正确答案为C．
27：B 细节题．由第二段第二句"On average，adults are thought to need at least eight hours of sleep a night…"可知，B项"成年人一天需要至少八个小时的睡眠"和文章相符，所以B项正确．故正确答案为B．
28 C 推断题．根据第三段第二、三句"On the other hand，the thought of being smarter，thinner，healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal．And those are just a few of the advantages that can be ours if we consistently get enough sleep，researchers say"可知，变得更精明、更苗条、更健康和更愉快有十足的吸引力，而那些只是我们一直获得足够睡眠的众多优点中的几个，由此可推知，C项"足够的睡眠是一些很有吸引力事情的保证"符合文章说法，所以C项正确．A项，"变得更加健康对我们来说是众多的优点之一"，这是一个一般事实，而不是从文中推断而出，所以A项错误．
B 项，"睡眠和个人期望无关"，由"the thought of being smarter，thinner，healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal"可知，睡眠与个人期望有关，所以B项错误．
D项，"花更多的时间睡觉是浪费时间"，与第三段的描述相悖，所以D项错误．
故正确答案为C．
29  A   推断题．由最后一段第二、三、四句 Jennifer Vriend 说的话"'We see napping or sleeping as lazy，'…'We put so much emphasis on diet，nutrition and exercise．Sleep is in the back seat．'"可知，我们把打盹儿或睡觉看成懒惰，我们总是强调饮食、营养和锻炼，睡眠却抛在脑后，由此可以推知，A项"人们很少在意睡眠"符合 Jennifer Vriend 话中的意思，所以A项正确．B项，"睡眠存在一个印象问题"，是文章原话，作者通过引用 Jennifer Vriend 说的话来解释"睡眠存在一个印象问题"，而非Jennifer Vriend 的话中暗示（imply），所以B项错误．
C项，"懒人往往会睡懒觉"，Jennifer Vriend 只是说人们会认为，而不是事实就是那样，C项无法推出，所以C项错误．
D项，"睡眠只是我们生命的一部分"，Jennifer Vriend 说的是人们对于睡眠的印象问题和睡眠的重要性，D项无法推出，所以D项错误．
所以正确答案为A．
30   D   主旨题．文章第一段通过 World Sleep Day 引出睡眠问题，第二段引用一项调查说明如今的人们缺乏睡眠的现象十分严重，第三段阐述足够的睡眠的好处，第四、五段说明缺乏睡眠的影响，最后一段通过引用 Jennifer Vriend 的话说明人们对于睡眠的刻板印象，再次强调足够睡眠的重要性，可见，文章的目的就是为了唤醒人们对于充足睡眠的意识，所以D项正确．A项"讨论人们的睡眠问题"，B项"提供睡眠的调查结果"，C项"强调夜晚睡眠的作用"，都只是文章中的部分内容，不能作为作者的写作意图，所以A、B、C项均错误．故正确答案为D．

点评做阅读理解时要快速的浏览全文，把握文章主旨大意，带着问题回到原文，寻找细节或概括相应的答案，最后要理清作者写作思路．

6．I work in a US factory that produces 4，500refrigerators every day．There was one worker in this huge factory who always seemed just a little strange．I've seen him around for years but never paid him much attention．He is short and scruffy （不整洁的）and walks around this big old factory on his breaks collecting aluminum cans （铝罐）．
Over the years I often ran into him as he walked to his old pickup truck on the coldest days with snow blowing and everyone with their collars turned up and their hands in their pockets．He would be there with a garbage bag full of aluminum cans．He'd toss （扔）it into the back of his truck and jump in．I'd reach my car and jump in and we'd all race to the exit of this big half-empty parking lot．
One day I was working on a broken machine in this factory and the can man came by with his bag，picking up cans．Our manager was standing there because the machine I was working on had been"down"for a couple of hours and he was getting worried that we might run out of parts for one of the assembly lines （装配线）．
As I was finishing，I stood up just as the manager asked the can man what he did with all those cans．I'd never thought to ask him that question because I always just assumed he cashed them in at the recycling center．
"I give them to my neighbor．He's epileptic （有癫痫病的），"the can man said．
"You mean you've been collecting all those cans for all these years for your neighbor？"I blurted out．
"It's not much，"he said．"But I give them to him．He can't hold a job．"
Right then and there I found myself looking straight at him．He was wearing a T-shirt and an old red baseball cap and he had a garbage bag full of aluminum cans in his hand．I don't even know his name，but I thank him for the lesson he taught me．

59．How did the author like the can man at first？D
A．He found the man very kind hearted．
B．He didn't like making friends with the man．
C．He thought it would be better to stay away from the man．
D．He thought the man was strange because he was always collecting cans．

A．spoke out without thinkingB．screamed because of fear
C．complained angrilyD．shouted cheerfully
61．Which of the following is TRUE according to the article？D
A．The can man was actually an engineer．
B．The author made friends with the can man on a cold day．
C．The boss was angry seeing the man always picking up cans．
D．The author admired the can man when he knew the truth．
62．What does the author intend to tell us with the story？A
A．Never judge a person by his appearance．B．Helping your neighbor is helping yourself．
C It's good to observe，but even better to ask．D．Never look down on a small kindness．

3．Are you good with money？I learnt to be careful with it during my childhood．My father would give me some pocket money and tell me it should last for a whole week．So，I learnt I had to save some if I didn't want to run out of cash quickly．No surprise there：my dad was an accountant!
It's never too early to become money savvy （会理财）．That's what British personal finances expert Martin Lewis thinks．He was part of a successful campaign to include financial education on the school curriculum in England．It will be embedded（植入）in maths and citizenship education．This includes children from 5to 16years old．
Lewis says："We desperately need to break the cycle of financial illiteracy（无知）in the UK-one of the causes of our current economic crisis and a huge contributor to continued misselling epidemics （违规销售）．"
Being careful with money pays off．Banks in Britain recently found themselves having to pay a large number of people who were persuaded to spend money and buy insurance policies they didn't need．Many wasted their money on investments which were not for them．Few have the patience to read the small print．
The British say‘take care of the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves'．It means you have to watch your daily expenses and not just the big purchases in your life such as houses．
Martin Lewis has made millions from his website which advises people to be thrifty（节俭） and refuses any suggestion that he is mean．The expert says in an interview with the English newspaper the Daily Express："the better you are with your cash，the better your life can be．People think I am telling them to stop spending money but I am simply telling them to spend it wisely．"

32．From Paragraph 1we can know that the authorD．
A．ran out of cash quickly B．earned a lot of money
C．was in deep debt D．was good with money as a child
33．The financial education in England aims toC．
A．help children make money
B．deal with the current economic crisis
C．educate children to become money savvy
D．avoid continued misselling epidemics
34．What's the financial problem of some people in Britain？A
A．They invest money blindly and unwisely．
B．They neglect big purchases．
C．They have no patience to spend money．
D．They watch their daily expenses．
35．What does the author mainly tell us？B
A．Financial illiteracy is the cause of economic crisis．
B．Take care of money and life will be better．
C．Financial education must be included in schoo1．
D．People should learn to be thrifty and mean．

10．I like this job，in which I stay with small children and from which I get the challenges and awards．I also think my work is important．There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career．
I wasn't an excellent student because I didn't do much schoolwork．In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn't have much to offer．I just accepted that I wasn't the type to have a career．

One Sunday，I was in the park with the children，and met Megan who used to go to school with me，I told her about my situation．She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification if I wanted to work with children．I didn't think I would be accepted because I didn't take many exams in school．She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful．My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part-time course．I had to leave my job with the family，and got work helping out at a kindergarten．
Now I've got a full-time job there．I shall always be thankful to Megan．Iwish I had known earlier that you could have a career，even if you aren't top of the class at school．

20．Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house．As they were working，a couple of older boys stopped by to watch．
"What are you doing？"asked one of the visitors．
"We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!"one of the brothers said excitedly．
The older boys began to laugh，telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible．After a long silence，one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders，worms and all kinds of other insects．He removed the lid and showed the wonderful contents to the scoffing（嘲笑）visitors．Then he said quietly and confidently，"Even if we don't dig all the way through the earth，look what we found along the way!"
Their goal was far too ambitious（有野心的），but it did cause them to dig．And that is what a goal is for-to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen； in other words，to set us to digging!
But not every goal will be fully achieved．Not every job will end successfully．Not every relationship will endure（长久持续）．Not every dream will be realized．But when you fall short of your aim，perhaps you can say，"Yes，but look at what I found along the way!Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!"
It is in the digging that life is lived．And I believe it is joy in the journey，in the end，that truly matters．
21．Which of the following is NOT the reason why the older boys laughed at the two brothers？A
A．The two brothers only dug out a lot of insects  B．The two brothers lacked knowledge of the earth．
