If so, then a new alarm clock could be just for you.The clock, called SleepSmart, measures your sleep cycle, and waits _21_ you to be in your lightest phase of sleep _22_ waking you. Its makers say that it should _23_ you wake up feeling refreshed every morning.As you sleep you pass _24_ a sequence of sleep stateslight sleep, deep sleep and REM (rapid eye movement) sleepthat _25_ approximately every 90 minutes. The point in that cycle at which you wake can _26_ how you feel later, and may _27_ have a greater impact than how much or little you have slept. Being woken during a light phase _28_ you are more likely to wake up energetic.SleepSmart _29_ the distinct pattern of brain waves _30_ during each phase of sleep, via a headband equipped _31_ electrodes (电极) and a microprocessor. This measures the electrical activity of the wearers brain, in much the _32_ way as some machines used for medical and research _33_, and communicates wirelessly with a clock unit near the bed. You _34_ the clock with the latest time at _35_ you want to be wakened, and it _36_ duly (适时地) wakes you during the last _37_ phase before that. The concept was invented by a group of students at Brown University in Rhode Island _38_ a friend complained of waking up tired and performing poorly on a test. “_39_ sleep-deprived people ourselves, we started thinking of _40_ to do about it,” says Eric Shashoua, a recent college graduate and now chief executive officer of Axon Sleep Research Laboratories, a company created by the students to develop their idea.21.A. beside B. near C. forD. around22.A. uponB. beforeC. towardsD. till23.A. ensureB. assure C. requireD. request24.A. throughB. into C. aboutD. on25.A. revealsB. regainsC. repairsD. repeats26.A. effectB. affectC. reflectD. perfect27.A. alreadyB. everC. neverD. even28.A. meansB. marksC. saysD. dictates29.A. removesB. relievesC. recordsD. recalls30.A. preparedB. producedC. pronouncedD. progressed31.A. byB. ofC. withD. over32.A. familiarB. similarC. identicalD. same33.A. problemsB. prospectsC. proposalsD. purposes34.A. progressB. programC. plugD. plan35.A. whereB. thisC. whichD. that36.A. thenB. alsoC. almostD. yet37.A. sleep stateB. deep sleepC. light sleepD.

They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future.The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present types.Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion (拥挤). One proposed solution to this problem is the automated highway system.When the auto enters the highway system, a retractable (可伸缩的) arm will drop from the auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all of the cars movements.The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzzer (蜂鸣器) that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway. 41. One significant improvement in the future car will probably be _.A. its power sourceB. its driving systemC. its monitoring systemD. its seating capacity42. What is the authors main concern? _A. How to cause automobiles to be pollution-free.B. How to make smaller and safer automobiles.C. How to solve the problem of traffic jams.D. How to develop an automated subway system.43. What provides autos with electric power in an automated highway system? _.A. A railB. An engineC. A retractable armD. A computer controller44. In an automated highway system, all that the driver needs to do is _.A. keep in the right laneB. wait to arrive at his destinationC. keep in constant touch with the computer centerD. inform the system of his destination by phoneBListen carefully, working people, we would like to tell you something that could save your precious time and money! Best of all, it is free! Its “no”. What do you ask? Well say it again: “No”. Sweet and simple “no”. Say “no” at your office and see how quickly that pile of work on your desk disappears. “Saying no to others means you are saying yes to yourself,” said Leslie Charles, a professional speaker from East Lansing, Michigan. “Time is precious. People are spending money buying time. And yet we are willing to give up our time because we cant say no.” Susie Watson, a famous writer, said people who always say “yes” need to say “no” without guilt or fear of punishment. “I would rather have someone give me a loving no than an obligated(强制的) yes, ” she said. Susie Watson says she feels “no” obligation to give an explanation when she says “no” either socially or professionally. Does she feel guilty about it? “Not at all, ” said Watson, who is director of advertising and public relations at Timex Corp in Middlebury, Connecticut. “Most people are afraid of saying no My advice is to say yes only if you dont mean no.” Watson said “no” is the most effective weapon against wasting time. “Every year there are more demands on your time Other people are happy to use up your time,” Watson said. Time saving appears to be “nos” greatest friend. “No” can be your new friend, a powerful tool to take back your life. “No” may even take you further in the business world than “yes”. “No” is power and strength. “No” now seems completely correct. “Saying no isnt easy. But finally its greatly liberating,” Charles said. But, he added, a “no” project needs to be worked on every day because it is hard to change long-term habit. But, he also warns: “Dont go to extremes. Dont find yourself saying no to everything. In return you should learn to hear no.”45. The underlined sentence “Saying no to others means you are saying yes to yourself” most probably implies _. A. you can have more time to play with others B. you neednt care about others feeling if you are happy C. you are selfish and treat others rudely D. you can deal with your business as you have planned46. When you say “no” to others you should say it in a _. A. secret wayB. polite wayC. proud wayD. guilty way47. In Watsons opinion, people can save much time on condition that _. A. they say “no” at a suitable timeB. they say “no” as much as possible C. they are afraid of saying “no”D. they make others angry at them48. If a person says “no” to everything, the result he or she receives may be that he or she _.A. enjoys a wonderful lifeB. makes a lot of moneyC. faces difficulty in lifeD. forgets to say “yes” in the endCThe United States will introduce a new and comprehensive(综合的) exam for students who seek to study in America and other English-speaking countries, Xinhua News Agency reported from New York. The exam, which stands for a great change from the current English level test, was disclosed by Theresa Chang Wei Jen, associate director of the International Service of the US College Board-Americas leading educational organization. The Advanced Placement International English Language (APIEL) will be offered for the first time throughout the world on May 10, 2002, said Jen. However, the APIEL is a strange title to most Chinese students, and it is unlikely to soon gain the similarity of other already existing exams, such as the TOEFL(Test of English as a Foreign Language), the GRE(Graduate Record Examination), or the IELTS(International English Language Testing System). “I have never heard of such a test and I would prefer the IELTS if I need another exam,” said Xu Jingyan, a graduating student from Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, who wants to study in England and has already taken the TOEFL. Most of Xus classmates have never heard of the APIEL. “The APIEL is designed for international students who wish to get university studies in English-speaking countries, including the United States, Britain, Canada, and Australia.” said Jen. The APIEL has been adopted, said Jen, because the TOEFL can no longer accurately reflect the abilities of students of using the English language comprehensively in an academic environment. Xinhua reported that a fairly large number of foreign students who earned high scores in TOEFL exam turned out to be very ordinary educational performers after admission. Compared with the TOEFL, the APIEL measures a students ability to read, write, speak and understand English through testing his or her skills in listening comprehension, speaking with accuracy and resourcefulness, and writing with clarity and fluency, Jen said.49. The United States will introduce a new exam because _. A. more and more students want to get further education in the USA B. the Chinese people pay special attention to English studies with Chinas entry into the WTOC. the already existing exam systems seem to be far from perfectD. it will bring the US government quite a lot of money50. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the news?A. It will take quite a period of time for people to accept the APIEL.B. The TOEFL is more popular with the Chinese than the IELTS.C. A student will have to take the APIEL if he or she wants to study in English-speaking countries from 2002.D. Chinese students will prefer the IELTS rather than the APIEL even in the future.51. The underlined word “current” in the second paragraph means _.A. modernB. presentC. standardD. formal52. Please decide which of the following would be the best title for this news report.A. The Key to English-speaking CountriesB. The Four Skills in Learning EnglishC. TOEFL, IELTS and GRE to be Out of DateD. New Exam Designed for Students DThe “non-government education sector in China should see new development in the new year since a law passed on Saturday will mean treating private schools like government-funded schools.The Developing Non-government Education Law has gone through four discussion periods since June. It allows people who invest in non-public schools to get a reasonable amount of profit from their operation, as well as funds for future development. Zhou Keyu, the vice-chairman of the NPC Law Committee, said at a plenary session of the Ninth NPC Standing Committee last Monday that non-public schools have to act in the public interest. But, something has to support and encourage their development, so investors should be allowed a reasonable amount of profit. The law also says that a non-government school is the sole property of the individual owner.In addition, non-public schools have access to preferential tax and land-use treatment. They will also have considerably more autonomy in setting tuition and in making administrative and course decisions.Teachers and students at non-government institutions will have the same legal status as their counterparts at government-funded schools.For quite some time, private college students have complained of their second-class, unequal status, the most obvious disadvantage being that they did not qualify for student loans and could not buy half-price train tickets.53. The non-government education in China _.A. has had a huge profit in the past few years B. has had four discussions with the government C. should experience new development in the new yearD. has been treated the same as government-funded schools54. Which of the following is NOT TRUE regarding the law passed on Saturday? A. It allows investors in non-public schools to get some reasonable profit. B. It allows investors to get funds for future development. C. It means treating private schools like government-funded schools.D. It has gone through four discussions in June.55. The new law says the following EXCEPT that _.A. investors should be allowed a reasonable amount of profitB. a non-government school is the sole property of the individualC. non-public schools have access to preferential tax and land-use treatmentD. non-public schools will have the same tuition and course with the public schools56. We can tell that the new law passed on Saturday means _.A. more equal treatments for the private sectorB. more investment in private sectorC. more students in private sectorD. higher salary for teachers in private sectorEAlthough they may not die from lack of love, adults also need a great amount of affection and companionship. In the past, many people spent their entire lives in the communities in which they were born and raised. Many more people continued to live with their parents, brothers and sisters after they were married and had children of their own. By remaining in familiar communities with relatives nearby, families had enough opportunities for friendly contact and for support in time of trouble.Recent studies suggest that family arrangements in Western societies have not changed as much in the last few centuries as is generally believed. Yet most sociologists agree that in modern societies, there are fewer opportunities for friendship and support from relatives outside the immediate family. Parents and children often live apart from other relatives, and seldom visit them. Also, the family moves
