    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    A study finds that not enough morning light causes teenagers not to get enough sleep at night. “As teenagers spend more time indoors, they miss necessary morning light. Day light is needed to keep the balance of the body’s 24-hour biological system (生物系统), which regulates (调节) body temperature and sleep styles,” reports Dr. Mariana Figueiro. “These teenagers who receive little morning light are going to bed later, getting less sleep and doing badly in tests. They are more likely to fail in their exams.”
    In the study, Dr. Figueiro asked 11 students in Grade 8 to wear special glasses to prevent blue morning light from reaching their eyes. At the end of the 5-day study she found that they fell asleep 30 minutes later than usual.
    Throughout her research, Dr. Figueiro has been very worried about teenagers going to bed too late. The problem is that today’s schools require teenagers to be in school very early in the morning. These students are likely to miss the morning light because they often go to school before the sun is up or as it’s just rising.
    Furthermore (此外), the schools are not likely to provide enough electric light to keep the balance of this biological system. Our biological system is much more sensitive (敏感的) to blue light. Therefore, having lots of light in the classroom does not make sure that there is enough light to keep our biological system balanced.

    A leading biologist has found the angels and fairies that sit at top of Christmas trees did not get there under their own power.
    Prof Roger Wotton, from University College London, found that flight would be impossible for angels with arms and bird-like feathered wings.  
    "Angels cannot take off and cannot use powered flight,” said Prof Wotton. “They would need to be exposed to very high wind velocities at take off - such high winds that they would be blown away."
    Some the world’s most famous religious paintings and architecture make most Americans believe in angels.
    The study found that 68 per cent of the 36,000 adults thought that angels and demons (魔鬼) were at work in the world.
    According to the latest study, angels lack the powerful muscles which allow birds to beat their wings.
    Prof Wotton’s paper explores why there are so many stories about angels. “Angels are very powerful religious icons for people with faith. Their similarity to humans adds to their power. At the same time, they have wings on them because they are more than human. They take messages to heaven and therefore have to fly.” said the academic.

    A．The angels and fairies are very powerful.
    B．It’s impossible for angels and fairies to fly.
    C．The flight would be possible for angels with arms and bird-like feathered wings.
