People with jet lag feel extremely tired for several days. They may also have problems in thinking clearly and remembering.Recently a researcher at the University of Bristol in Britain reported the findings of his jet lag study, which involved twenty women who worked for international airlines. They had served passengers on airplanes for five years. These flight attendants flew across many countries and at least seven time zones. In the study, the flight attendants had different amounts of time to recover from jet lag. Half the women spent five days or fewer in their home areas between long flights. The other half spent more than fourteen days in their home areas.The researcher took some saliva (唾液) from the womens mouths to measure levels of a hormonethat increases during stress. He tested them to see if they could remember where black spots appeared on a computer screen. And he took pictures of their brains to measure the size of the brains temporal lobes (脑叶).It was found that the women who had less time between flights had smaller right temporal lobes. This area of the brain deals with recognizing and remembering what is seen. The same group performed worse and had slower reaction on the visual memory test. And their saliva samples showed higher levels of stress hormones.The researcher believes the brain needs at least ten days to recover after a long trip. He says airline workers told him their ability to remember got worse after working on planes for about four years. Other studies have shown that increased feelings of stress can cause a loss of cells in the part of the brain that controls memory.Scientists say more tests are needed to study the effects of jet lag on the brain. They want to find out if too much jet lag could permanently affect memory.31. It can be inferred from the text that _.A. the conclusion is refused by many scientistsB. scientists fear that this research is not done properlyC. every scientific conclusion needs the support from many testsD. the women who were examined in the research were not healthy32. From the result of the research we can see that _.A. the women who have longer rest at home perform better on the test.B. the women who fly in short time have smaller right temporal lobesC. the women who have longer flights fail the memory testD. the women who rest more than 14 days produce more hormones33. What is the subject discussed in the test?A. The cause of jet lag.B. A story of a group of flight attendants.C. The importance of having enough rest after flights.D. A research about the effects of jet lag on the brain【解析】这是一篇科普文章，是科学家对于飞行时差反应对人脑的影响所做的实验。31. C根据Scientists say more tests are needed to study the effects of jet lag on the brain.故答案应为C。32. A根据He says airline workers told him their ability to remember got worse after working on planes for about four years.A符合题意。33. D根据Scientists say more tests are needed to study the effects of jet lag on the brain.。答案为D。【名师点睛】一般情况下科普类文章是阅读理解题的难点，它们生词多、专业术语多，理解难度比较大。对于这类文章我们要静下心来，先略读，通读全文，对文章大意有个模糊理解，然后看题目，再带着题目细读文章，找到答题依据，得出正确答案。B【海南省（海南中学、文昌中学、海口市第一中学、农垦中等八校2018届高三上学期新起点联盟】CMiddle school graduation style may be a bit more casual than formal high school or college ceremonies,but the move from junior to senior high school is still an important occasion that can be celebrated in many ways.The decision whether students will wear caps and gowns（礼服）for middle school graduation is usually up to the individual school.Some feel that this is the perfect way to commemorate the special occasion,while others feel the cap and gown is unnecessary for a junior high ceremony.For those schools that choose not to use caps and gowns,it is typically suggested that students wear dress clothes for the occasion.Students may also be encouraged to dress for graduation in a uniform manner,such as white shirts and black pants or skirts,or educators may suggest dressing in the school colors.Schools that choose to have students wear academic regalia（制服）for the ceremony may choose to purchase gowns in a variety of sizes from a store such as Graduate Affairs,and then let students borrow them,and reuse them each year.Caps may be purchased by a Parent-Teacher Organization or by the individual graduates.Parents may choose to host open house or party when their child graduates from middle school.This is typically an informal affair,such as a barbeque or pool party,or simply appetizers or cake to honor the graduate.Simple backyard games such as volleyball,bocce ball,and Frisbee are a fun way to entertain young teens,tweens,and well-wishers.Other party games and a band might also be considerations for a large or more complicated gathering.Whether simple or complex,there are many ways to remember a graduation from middle school and make this time a special and wonderful one.Graduation events are perfect for highlighting a students achievements during middle school and preparing for his or her future success.34.

We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning.We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. Conditioned as we are to passive learning, its not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers.Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay (传闻) and rumor.Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesnt show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. Thai person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements arc compared. Typically, the original message has changed.Thats what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story. Then, too, most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear it think they know.This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be restated as fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.38. According to the passage, active learning may occur in .A. doing a chemical experimentB. listening to the teacher in classC. watching news program on TVD. reading scientific journals39. The game Rumor is mentioned in Paragraph 4 in order to tell readers that .A. playing games can make people more activeB. people tend to like telling lies when playing gamesC. people may have problems with their sense of hearingD. a message may be changed when being passed on40. What can be inferred from the text?A. Scholars and authors cant be trusted.B. People like spreading rumors in daily life.C. Passive learning may not be reliable.D. Active learning is more important than passive learning.【答案】38. A 39. D 40. C第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）【云南省玉溪市第一中学2017届高三上学期第一次月考】根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中的两项为多余选项。Coffee is one of the most popular drinks around the world. 41 Experts claim that there are more flavors of coffee than there are of wine. Coffee contains caffeine, an element (成分) that raises our awareness, keeps us from falling asleep or simply gives us a kick in the morning or after lunch.42 For a long time doctors have told people not to drink too much coffee, because it may lead to heart problems, high blood pressure, insomnia (失眠) and headaches.Scientists have now found out that it is the quality of coffee and the way it is brewed (冲泡) that holds the key to our health. 43 Among other things, this is linked to the consumption of a strong brew of coffee. Experts also point out that different roasts and types of coffee beans have different effects on our health. A new study by a Harvard research group says that there is no link between coffee and health problems. 44 Doctors, however, warn against drinking too much coffee, as it can lead to stomach problems.Coffee has many advantages, as the new study suggests. While alcohol makes people sleepy and slow-moving, coffee gives them energy. 45 Although a lot still needs to be uncovered about coffee, it seems to reduce the risk of cancer and diabetes. Reports show that people who drink coffee may develop Parkinsons disease later in life, or maybe not at all. A. There are many different types of coffee.B. Scientists ask people not to dri
