It’s surprising how we spend our lives. Reach your 78th birthday and according to some back-of-the-envelope 1 (calculate) , and you will have spent nine of those years 2 (watch) television, four years driving a car, 92 days on the toilet, and so on.

But when 3 comes to time-consuming activities, there’s one that sits head and shoulders above them all.4 (live) to 78, and you may have spent around 25 years asleep. In an effort 5 (regain) some of that time it’s reasonable to ask: how long can we stay 6 (wake) – and what are the consequences of going without sleep?

Any healthy individual 7 (plan) to find out through personal experimentation will find it tough going. If we ignore all these side effects and stay up 8 days on end, our minds become insane(精神錯(cuò)亂的). We get moody, paranoid(偏執(zhí)狂的), and see things that 9 (be) really there. When a shadowy apparition(幽靈) appears on the roadway, so the advice goes, it’s time to pull the lorry over. “People start to hallucinate(幻覺) and go 10 bit crazy,” says Atul Malhotra, the Director of Sleep Medicine at the University of California, San Diego.

【解析】

本文是一篇說明文,介紹了當(dāng)一個(gè)人活到78歲的時(shí)候,他將花25年的時(shí)間用來睡覺,有人不禁會(huì)想如果我們不把這么多的時(shí)間“浪費(fèi)”在睡覺上會(huì)怎樣,答案是連續(xù)幾天不睡覺我們就會(huì)變得喜怒無常、偏執(zhí)多疑,甚至?xí)a(chǎn)生幻覺。

1考查名詞的數(shù)。句意:到你78歲生日的時(shí)候,根據(jù)一些粗略的計(jì)算,你將會(huì)花上9年的時(shí)間看電視,4年的時(shí)間開車,92天的時(shí)間上廁所,等等。作介詞短語according to的賓語用名詞,calculation表示“計(jì)算結(jié)果”時(shí)是可數(shù)名詞,some修飾可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù),故填calculations

2考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。句意同上,spend time doing表示“花時(shí)間做某事,故填watching。

3考查代詞。句意:但說到耗時(shí)的活動(dòng),有一項(xiàng)比所有的都重要。when it comes to….表示“當(dāng)提到”,故填it。

4考查祈使句。句意:活到78歲,你可能已經(jīng)用了25年的時(shí)間來睡覺。此處為“祈使句+and+陳述句”結(jié)構(gòu),表示做到了祈使句表示的事情,就會(huì)有后面陳述句表示的結(jié)果,故填Live。

5考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。句意:為了重新獲得一些時(shí)間,我們有理由問:我們能保持清醒多久?不睡覺會(huì)有什么后果?in an effort to do sth.表示“為了做某事、努力做某事”,故填to regain。

6考查形容詞。句意同上,stay是系動(dòng)詞,后面跟形容詞作表語,故填awake

7考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。句意:任何想要通過個(gè)人實(shí)驗(yàn)來找到答案的健康人都會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)這很難。Any healthy individualplan之間是邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系,表示主動(dòng),用現(xiàn)在分詞作后置定語,故填planning。

8考查介詞。句意:如果我們忽視這些副作用,連續(xù)幾天熬夜,我們就會(huì)精神錯(cuò)亂。根據(jù)空后的“days”可知此處與之構(gòu)成介賓短語作時(shí)間狀語,for days表示“數(shù)日”,故填for。

9考查時(shí)態(tài)和主謂一致。句意:我們變得喜怒無常、偏執(zhí)多疑,看到的東西其實(shí)并不存在。此處為定語從句,that 指代先行詞things,謂語動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式,陳述的是客觀事實(shí),用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí),根據(jù)“We get moody, paranoid”可知此處表示否定,故填aren’t。

10考查固定短語。句意:人們開始產(chǎn)生幻覺,變得有些瘋狂”,阿圖爾·馬爾霍特拉說。a bit表示“一點(diǎn)”,修飾后面的形容詞crazy,故填a。

【題目】 The cracked step four years ago was the start of it. That day, I awoke tired—the children were tiny and needing so much—and I had a golden afternoon of rest ahead, my mother stepping in to allow me to catch up on my sleep. I dropped them off and drove home—the sun shining and my bed signaling. As I was about to enter the house, I caught sight of a deep crack beneath my feet.

Without thinking, I turned around, walked back to the car and drove to a DIY store. Four hours later, I had all the tools, mixed my own cement, filled in the crack and repaired the foundation. Perfect. As I stood up to take a photo of my handiwork, I realized that I was trembling. I’d forgotten my shot at a nice long nap, and my children were already on their way home. That sleep... that promise to self was broken, because I had focused, instead, on the crack in the step.

Suddenly, everything started to hurt. My head, my throat, my back. I couldn’t stop shaking. What earned then is that when we break the promises we make to our bodies they will not be silenced. This is when we overwork and overthink to the point of breaking down. Ironically (諷刺地), for many of us, it is only when we have no choice— when we fall ill—that we learn to listen. For me, when that crack ended in a hospital stay which sent me to bed for two unmoving weeks when my body worked to clear two different infections, the lesson is ever present. I did it to myself—a whole twisted spin on DIY.

Sadly it took another two ridiculous DIY projects to finally get through. The cracks will never be fully filled. Focus, then, on your own inner core, the feeding of light, fire and strength.

1What made the author so sleepy in the first place?

A.Taking care of the kids.B.Asking her mother for help.

C.Driving to her mother’s houseD.Dealing with DIY projects.

2How did the author feel as soon as she finished her repair work?

A.RegretfulB.Upset

C.ProudD.Thankful

3What can be implied from Paragraph 3?

A.Our health is ignored deliberately.

B.Our body will respond to what we do.

C.The author took her mother’s advice.

D.The author was infected before the DIY.

4What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?

A.To describe an unfortunate event.

B.To show the danger of DIY.

C.To stress the importance of sleep.

D.To encourage focusing on oneself.

【題目】 If you follow any people who like traveling on Instagram, you’ve probably noticed they’ve posted amazing photos from Portugal in the last few years, especially during peak summer months. Mario Fernandes, a co-creator and the editor of Golisbon said he had seen increased interest in traveling to Portugal in the past five years, particularly in the last two or three. Cindy Goldberger, a travel adviser for Hiatus, an agency in Brooklyn, New York, said that she noticed an increase in Portugal trips about three years ago and that she gets more requests to plan people’s visits there every year. According to Reuters, the number of foreign tourists visiting Portugal hit a record for 2017, and in the same year the country won the world’s leading destination at the World Travel Awards.

Fernandes suggested it’s because Portugal is safe and more affordable than many other Western European countries. The country’s frequent sunshine is also attractive to many visitors. The Algarve, the southernmost area of Portugal, is home to “some of Europe’s most beautiful beaches,” according to Fenandes. Goldberger noted that many airlines have offered better routes to the country in recent years. She’s also a fan of the new hotels that have opened, including farms that have become hotels.

Eric Hrubant, the president of Cire Travel, noted that there is another reason. “It’s a small country, yet you have cities with rich history, culture and food, as well as a lot of beach and golfing options,” he said. “In five to 10 days, you can have a vacation or honeymoon that caters to all of your senses and desires.”

Hrubant pointed out that celebrities(名人) like Madonna and newlyweds Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander have moved to Portugal, which has put the country more popular.

So you don’t know where to go for a vacation this summer? Now you can make a better choice.

1What does Paragraph 1 mainly say about Portugal?

A.It’s doing its best to attract tourists.

B.It’s been made popular by Instagram.

C.It’s become a popular tourist destination.

D.Its development depends on its tourism.

2According to Cindy Goldberger, what encourages more people to go to Portugal?

A.Lower expenses.B.Convenient transportation.

C.Frequent sunshine.D.Beautiful beaches.

3What does the underlined words “caters to” in paragraph 3 mean?

A.upsets.B.improves.

C.satisfies.D.frightens.

4What’s the author’s main purpose in writing the text?

A.To encourage people to visit Portugal.

B.To recommend some Portuguese trips.

C.To tell some basic facts about Portugal.

D.To explain why Portugal has become famous.
