or 7 hours of sleep a night．A couple of hours of missed sleep a night may not seem like a big deal，but can create
a noticeable sleep deficit over time.
Why is sleep important? Sleep deficit affects everything from a person’s ability to pay attention in class to his
or her mood．Research shows that more than 20% of high school students fall asleep in class，and experts havebeen able to tie lost sleep to poorer grades．Lack of sleep also damages teens’ ability to do their best in sports．
Slowed responses and less concentration(专注)caused by sleep deficit don’t just affect school or sports
performance，though．Lack of sleep slows reaction time，which can be life threatening for people who drive．
The National Highway Safety Traffic Administration reports that 1，500 people are killed every year in crashes
caused by drivers between the ages of 15 and 24 who are simply tired．Lack of sleep has also been linked to
emotional troubles， such as feelings of sadness and depression．Sleep helps keep us physically healthy，too，by
slowing our body’s systems enough to re-energize us after everyday activities.
How do I know if I’m getting enough sleep? Even if you think you’re getting enough sleep， you may not
be．Here are some of the signs that you may need more sleep: (1) difficulty in waking up in the morning；(2)
inability to focus；(3) falling asleep during classes； (4) feelings of anxiety and even depression(忧郁)．
Recently，some researchers，parents，and teachers have suggested that middle and high school classes begin
later in the morning to meet teens’ need for more sleep．Some schools have already tried later starting time．You
and your friends，parents，and teachers can call up for later start time at your school，but in the meantime you’ll
have to make changes on your own first.
35. Which is the best choice for the blank in Paragraph 2?
A. What does sleep deficit mean
B. How many hours do teens sleep a night
C. Why can’t teens get enough sleep
D. Why do teens now need to sleep more
36. What can we learn from the passage?
A. 1500 drivers between ages of 15 and 24 in America are killed a year.
B. Lack of sleep has bad influence on both life and school performance.
C. Sleep helps to keep us healthy by energizing our everyday activities.
D. Poor performance in study and sports has little relation with lost sleep.
37. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To explain the reason why teens are lack of sleep.
B. To draw people’s attention to teens’ sleeping problem.
C. To introduce that we have the problem of sleep shortage.
D. To give teens advice on possible ways of having better sleep.

Scientist Stephen Hawking had to work really hard to speak．He chose letters and words from a screen
controlled by movements of a muscle in his cheek．However，the slow system he used might soon be replaced．
With a very different approach，doctors have found a way to get a person’s speech directly from their brain.
The system uses brain-reading software．It works only for sentences it has been trained on. Doctors at the
University of California in San Francisco (UCSF) set out to create a better product， which allows people who are
paralyzed (瘫痪的) to communicate more quickly than Hawking’s device，which uses muscle twitches(抽搐)to
control a keyboard.
The Study of Brain Activity
The work was possible thanks to three patients．They had epilepsy(癫痫症)．This is a condition that has
something to do with the nerves．It causes seizures(痉挛)．This is when their body suddenly moves on its own．They were about to have surgery(外科手术)for their condition.
Before their surgery，they had a small device placed on their brain for at least a week．It was used to map
their seizures.The patients could speak normally，and they agreed to take part in Doctor Chang’s study．The
doctor used the devices to record brain activity while each patient was asked nine questions．The patients were
also asked to read a list of 24 possible responses.
Using the recordings，Chang and his team built computer models．The models learned to match patterns of
brain activity to the questions the patients heard and the answers they spoke．Once trained，the software could
identify questions and responses almost instantly．It used only brain signals．It was correct on what question a
patient heard 7 out of 10 times．The software identified what response they gave 6 out of 10 times.
Improving Software to Read More Varied Speech
Even with the breakthrough，there are hurdles ahead．One challenge is to improve the software so it can
translate brain signals into a variety of speech．This will require software trained on a huge amount of spoken
language and matching brain signals．These signals will be different from one person to another.
Another goal is to read “imagined speech”，or sentences spoken in the mind．The system in the study detects
brain signals that are sent to move the mouth．However，for some patients these signals may not be enough．
More advanced ways of reading sentences in the brain will be needed.
38. From the passage，we can learn that ______.
A. the three patients with epilepsy have difficulty in speaking
B. Stephen Hawking’s system is controlled by his brain signals
C. the patients chose from nine responses to answer 24 questions
D. the brain-reading software can only recognize a few sentences now
39. What does the word hurdles in paragraph 6 mean?
A. Risks． B. Difficulties.
C. Possibilities． D. Disadvantages.
40. The purpose of the last two paragraphs is to _______.
A. tell us the disadvantages of the software
.
B present the possible future of the software
C. explain the process of designing the software
D. show the author’s opinion toward the software
41. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Different devices to help paralyzed people to communicate.
B. Different ways to develop software that can help paralyzed people.
C. Doctors have started to explore software to read people’s brain signals.
D. The study showed the system could translate brain signals into a variety of speech.

Do you know we are living in the world of mass media? Mass media are tools of communication and allow us
to record and pass information rapidly to a large，scattered audience.
However，have you imagined what life would be without the media? Are you a media addict who would go
mad after two hours without TV，friend requests，exciting online games and your mobile—or would you easily
survive?
Recently，university students around the world were asked to volunteer in a global experiment called
Unplugged．It was designed to see how young people would react if they were asked to observe a total media
ban(禁止)by unplugging all forms of media devices for 24 hours.
Unplugged is being run by Dr. Roman Gerodimos，a lecturer in Communication and Journalism at
Bournemouth University．The experiment is now over but he doesn’t yet know the full findings. However，
during the experiment，Dr. Gerodimos said there were already signs of how much the exercise affected
volunteers．He said: “They’re reporting withdrawal(孤僻)symptoms，overeating， feeling nervous，isolated
and disconnected.”
During their 24-hour ordeal，three volunteers had to endure one intrusion from the media: a BBC reporter
plus cameraman who followed them around for the day．They were asked to write down 100 lines about their day
offline，but of course，they all waited until the next day when they had access to their laptops.
Elliot Day wrote: “Today，my whole morning routine was thrown up into the air．Despite being aware of the
social importance of the media，I was surprised by how empty my life felt without the radio or newspapers.”
From Caroline Scott，we read: “I didn’t expect it，but being taken away from the media for 24 hours resulted
in my day-to-day activities becoming so much harder to carry out than usual… I didn’t break out in a cold sweat
like Dr. Roman Gerodimos expected us all to，but it’s not something I would like to do again!”
And Charlotte Gay wrote: “I have to say the most difficult item for me to be without has been my mobile；
not only is it a social gadget，it’s my main access point of communication.”
Earlier in the year，a UK government study found that in the UK we spend about half our waking hours using
the media，often plugged into several things at once．And a recent study by Nielson found that on average，US
teenagers send and receive over 3，000 texts per month—that’s about six texts per waking hour.
So，with technology continuing to develop at an alarming rate，how much time will you set aside for sleep inthe future?
42. According to the passage，what do you learn about the global experiment called Unplugged?
A. The experiment was carried out by US and UK governments.
B. The volunteers of the experiment are all university students.
C. It has been carried out in more than 10 countries for 24 hours.
D. Its findings proved that Dr. Gerodimos’ expectations were true.
43. According to what the three volunteers wrote during the experiment，we can learn that ______.
A. they all feel very surprised and worried
B. all of them feel empty without a mobile
C. it is hard for them to spend the 24 hours without media
D. it makes them realize the social importance of mobile
44. What does the writer think about the mass media?
A. He prefers not to live with it． B. He thinks highly of it.
C. He worries about its influence． D. He is not sure about it.
45. The underlined expression “break out in a cold sweat” probably means _______.
A. losing temper and feeling very angry
B. feeling cold due to sweating a lot
C. feeling empty and wanting to escape
D. sweating because one is nervous
46. What can be the best title of the passage?
A. Hello，technology! B. The young’s lives，a mess?
C. Welcome，information age! D. Mass media，a lifelong partner?
【答案】42. B 43. D 44. C 45. D 46. D

词句猜测题。根据上文．He said: “They’re reporting withdrawal symptoms，overeating， feeling nervous，
isolated and disconnected.” 他说：“他们报告了戒断症状，暴饮暴食，感到紧张，孤立和断开联系。”结合本
句I didn’t break out in a cold sweat like Dr. Roman Gerodimos expected us all to，可知，Caroline Scott没有像
Roman Gerodimos博士说的那样感到紧张而出汗，故答案选D。
