A new study has found that elementary school students who slept too little were more likely to _31_ pounds. Past studies have shown a _32_ between sleeping less and weighing more, but scientists have had a tough time determining which came first, the chicken or the egg, In other words, it hasnt been clear whether kids who weigh too much have_33_ sleeping, or whether sleeping less leads to weight gain. Both scenarios(可能的情形) seem equally possible.To get a better idea of which causes which, researchers interviewed the parents of 785 third graders from around the United States. The parents answered questions about how well their kids slept that year. Three years later, the parents answered the same questions.By sixth grade, 18 percent of kids _34_ in the study were obese (肥胖的) . The scientists found no relationship between _35_ and the students race or gender (性别). It also didnt _36_ how strict their parents were, or whether they were boys or girls. Obesity struck all of these groups _37_.Instead, sleep seemed to be the key _38_. Over the 3 years of the study, the children averaged a healthy 9.5 hours of sleep a night. Some kids, _39_, slept a lot more- or less- than others.For the sixth graders, every hour of sleep above the 9.5-hour average was linked to a 20 percent lower _40_ of being obese. Sleep appeared doubly important for the third graders. Every extra hour of sleep they got was linked to a 40% drop in obesity by sixth grade.31. A. loseB. reduceC. keepD. gain32.A. link B. ruleC. balanceD. similarity33.A.effectB. dangerC. troubleD. experience34.A.goneB. involvedC. madeD. interviewing35.A. weightB. scoreC. sleepD. age36.A. affectB. matterC. occurD. influence37.A. suddenlyB. fortunatelyC. equallyD. unexpectedly38.A. meansB. symptomC. phenomenonD. factor39.A. otherwiseB. thereforeC. howeverD. moreover40A.levelB. riskC. problemD. standard四、阅读理解（共30分） ADo you know electricity can change the way we taste food? Proving this fact is a revolutionary electric fork designed by Japanese researchers that can make any dish taste salty.According to Hiromi Nakamura, a Post Doc Research Fellow at Tokyos Meiji University, the technology can be very useful for people on special diets. Patients with high blood pressure, for instance, can easily go on a low-salt diet and still enjoy delicious food. And with the fork, theres absolutely no risk of over-salting their food. Luckily, the voltage(电压) is so small that there is no risk of electrocution(触电) either.The idea of adding electricity to food was first exposed as an experiment at the Computer Human Interaction Conference in Austin, Texas, in 2012. Nakamura and her team connected a wire to a 9-volt battery and passed it through a straw placed in a cup of sweet lemonade. Volunteers reported that the charged lemonade tasted blander, because the electricity created the taste of salt.Nakamura has improved the technology to be able to transfer an electric charge to food through forks and chopsticks. “The metallic part of the fork is one electrode（电极）, and the handle is the other,” Nakamura explained. “When you take a piece of food with the fork and put it in your mouth, you connect the circuit. When you remove the fork from your mouth, you disconnect the circuit. So it actually works as a switch.” Simon Klose, host of food program Munchies, who recently visited Nakamura to try out the fork himself, called this form of food hacking one of the greatest eating experiences hed ever had.“When I first heard of electric food, it sounded scary,” he said. He later continued to use a charged fork to eat pieces of fried chicken, and found that the saltiness considerably increased as the electricity was connected.Nakamura has been eating electric food for the past three to four years in an attempt to understand it better. “For me, food hacking is about strengthening or weakening real food,” she said. “It may seem like were cooking but were actually working on the human senses.”41. The electric fork may benefit people who_.A. need to go on a diet B. have high blood pressure C. prefer food free of salt D. show interest in tasty food42. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us _.A. how the electric fork works B. what makes the circuit connectedC. how the technology was improved D. why the electric fork was invented43. From the passage, we learn that the electric fork_.A. creates virtual taste B. changes peoples dietsC. helps cure diseases D. replaces salt in cookingBMore People Are Leaving the Rat Race for the Simple LifeTime is more precious than money for an increasing number of people who are choosing to live more with lessand liking it. Kay and Charles Giddens, two lawyers, sold their home to start a B&B hotel. Four years later, the couple dishes out banana pancake breakfast, cleans toilets and serves homemade chocolate chip cookies to guests in a B&B hotel surrounded by trees on a hill known for colorful sunsets.“Do I miss the freeways? Do I miss the traffic? Do I miss the stress? No,” says Ms. Giddens, “This is a phenomenon thats fairly widespread. A lot of people are reevaluating their lives and figuring out what they want to do. If their base is being damaged, whats the payoff?”Simple living ranges from cutting down on weeknight activities to sharing housing, living closer to work, avoiding shopping malls, borrowing books from the library instead of buying them, and taking a cut in pay to work at a more pleasurable job.Vicki Robin, a writer, lives on a budget equal to a fifth of what she used to make. “You become conscious about where your money is going and how valuable it is,” Ms. Robin says, “You tend not to use things up. You cook at home rather than eat out”Janet Luhrs, a lawyer, quit her job after giving birth and leaving her daughter with a nanny for two weeks. “It was not the way I wanted to raise my kids,” she says, “Simplicity is not just about saving money; its about me sitting down every night with my kids to a candlelit dinner with classical music.”Mrs. Luhrs now edits a magazine, Simple Living, which publishes tips on how to buy recycled furniture and shoes, organize potluck dinners instead of expensive receptions, and generally how to consume less.“Its not about poverty,” Mrs. Luhrs explains, “Its about conscious living and creating the life you want. The less stuff you buy, the less money goes out of the door, and the less money you have to earn.”44. Kay and Charles Giddens sold their home to _.

Of course, you want to hold on to it so you make sure it has the latest alarm and immobilizer(汽车防盗器). But despite all these, cars like yours are still stolen every day. In fact, in this country, one car is stolen almost every minute! And if your car is stolen, you only have a 50:50 chance of seeing it again.Each year, car crime costs nearly 3 billion. Of course, if youre insured, you wont lose out, or will you? Firstly, you will have to pay extra insurance later on, and then you may not be offered the full amount by the agent. You will probably have to hire a car and you will also lose the value of the contents and accessories(配件) in the car.Now comes the solution. An RAC Trackstar system, hidden in one of 47 possible secret locations(位置) in your car, is the key of our system. If your car is stolen, radio signals are sent at twenty-second intervals from the car to the RAC Trackstar National Control Center via a satellite network. Then a computer gives the vehicles exact location, speed and direction.The RAC Trackstar National Control Center, which operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, will immediately inform the police in the area where the car is located. Because the police receive information every twenty seconds, they will always know the vehicles location. Once the thief has been arrested, your car will be returned to you.RAC Trackstar is unique in being able to provide the National Control Center with details of the exact location of your car, its speed and direction. And speed is the key to successful recovery of a stolen vehicle. RAC Trackstar Control will immediately tell the police if you report your car stolen and under the 24-hour Guardian Option. It will also tell you if your car has been stolen. RAC Trackstars constant updates mean the police are kept informed of the cars location. All these greatly improve your chances of seeing your car again. 48. If your car is stolen, you will have to _. A. hire a new car B. pay more insuranceC. buy a RAC Trackstar system D. inform the National Control Center 49. The Trackstar system can tell the police _.A. where the car isB. how the car is stolenC. who the thief isD. what brand the car is50. The underlined word “It” in the last paragraph refers to _.

According to the passage, people with RAC Trackstar _.A. are more likely to get the stolen cars back B. have less chance of being in an accident C. seldom get their vehicles damaged D. automatically find directions DEvery day we are exposed to images, videos, music and news. In this age of visual and aural hyper-stimulation, the medium of radio is making a great comeback.“Were at the beginning of a golden age of audio,” said US-based podcaster Alex Blumberg in an article in The Sydney Morning Herald. In the last month alone, 15 percent of US adults listened to a radio podcast(播客). These statistics, released by Edison Research, show the successful evolution of traditional radio broadcasts to the present days digital podcast format. The term “podcast” was invented in 2004, but the trend only started gaining mainstream popularity in recent years. With the sharp increase in consumer demand for smartphones and tablets, podcast sales have jumped.The appeal of the podcast partly lies in its multiplatform delivery and on-demand capabilities(功能). You can listen during those extra minutes of the day when youre walking to the shops, waiting in a queue or riding the subway. Similar to television shows, podcasts are generally free to download and most offer new content every week. Donna Jackson, 22, Sydney University media graduate, listens to podcasts two or three times a week, via iTunes. “I listen while Im wandering around the house doing something else. It makes completing a boring task much more enjoyable And its an easy way of keeping in touch with whats going on in the rest of the world,” she said. “I mainly listen to BBC podcasts, but recently Ive also been listening to This American Life and Serial. They have a special skill to really draw you in.”Unlike television and music, the audio format has the potential to create a deep impression on readers. Blumberg says this owes to the podcasts ability “to create close relationship and emotional connection.” Sydney University undergraduate Hazel Proust, majoring in social work and arts, agrees. “When youre listening, it feels as if the voice of the podcasts storyteller is talking directly to you. Its comforting,” said Proust.It seems the age-old tradition of verbal storytelling is very much alive and well. 52.
