about the type of personality they have. phipps has identified four sleeping positions that affect personality.phipps found that worriers, those who stress the most, tend to sleep in the fetal (胎儿的) position. he found that this is the most common bedtime position, with nearly 58 percent of people sleeping on their side with knees up and head down. the more we curl up (蜷曲), the more comfort we are seeking, according to phipps. the second most common position is the log. sleeping with a straight body, with arms at each side, as if they are standing guard at buckingham palace, indicates stubbornness, and these people (the 28 percent who sleep this way) often wake up stiffer than when they went to sleep.“the longer you sleep like this, the more rigid your thinking is and you can become inflexible, which means you make things harder for yourself,” according to phipps.yearner(向往)sleepers are next on the list. about 25 percent of people sleep in this styleon their side with arms stretched out in front, looking as if they are either chasing a dream or perhaps being chased themselves. yearners are typically their own worst critics, always expecting the best results, explained phipps. these people often wake up refreshed and eager to face the challenges of the day ahead. perhaps the most peculiar (奇怪的) of sleep styles is the freefaller position. this sleep style makes up 17 percent of the population. they sleep face down with arms stretched out. these people, according to phipps, feel like they have little control over their life. not only is this the strangest of sleep styles, but also the least comfortable, and people may wake up feeling tired and have no energy.in conclusion, phipps has only one more thing to add: “a good nights sleep set you up for the following day and our sleeping positions can determine how we feel when we wake.”21. which of the following pictures is the fetal position?22. the underlined word “rigid” is closest in meaning to _.a. stubborn b. flexible c. comfortable d. strange23. which sleeping position indicates that the sleeper tends to seek perfection?a. the fetal position.b. the log position. c. the yearner position. d. the freefaller position.24. which of the following shows the structure of the passage?cp: central point p: point sp: sub-point c: conclusionbjohn sand was one of the most influential teachers, and people, i have ever met. having him for two years during high school, for both history and study hall, he taught me more than any other teacher has been able to.his unusual attitude reflects his methods of teaching. he was constantly trying to push us out of our comfort zones with video projects we did about once a month. he wanted us to face, and accept how other people saw us to prepare us for the real world. he was always making colorful power points to teach us the latest topic instead of standing in front of us lecturing for a period, putting us to sleep like many teachers do. he did not give us homework one day and have it due the next, but instead gave us a schedule of the homework for the section and left the responsibility up to us to remember to do it. having that prepares us for life after high school, life less structured(有条不紊的), where the responsibility is all on us.mr sand is a responsible family man. he took whatever time we had left in class to show us his newest vacation videos or his childrens sports videos. he balances his family and his career so nicely.mr sand always encouraged us to explore the cultures of the world. he would tell us stories of his travels across europe and his adventures around the us, while many teachers just force the idea of college.many people may not ever get to have the experience of having mr sand as a teacher or ever be affected by him like i was but for them, i feel sorry. putting aside that he was my teacher, he was one person who influenced me greatly and taught me things that went beyond the school courses.25. according to the writer, why was john sand different from other teachers? a. he never gave homework to his students. b. he clearly knew what his students would be like in the future. c. he always made his classes lively and interesting. d. he often encouraged his students to face the real world bravely.26. which of the following shows that the writer was greatly affected by mr. sand? a. he realizes what makes an excellent teacher. b. he has the courage to take great adventures like other teachers. c. he feels more confident within comfort zones. d. he knows how to deal with life after high school.27. what would be the best title for the passage?a. an outstanding teacher. b. a valuable experience of schooling.c.a kind family man, and a father. d. an unusual method of teaching.cnot all memories are sweet. some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. often they relieve these experiences in nightmares(噩梦).now american researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. the pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. they hope it might reduce, or possibly wipe out, the effect of painful memories.in november, experts tested a drug on people in the us and france. the drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. so far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are wiped out. the research has caused a great deal of argument. some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers troubling memories after war. they say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.some memories can ruin peoples lives. they come back to you when you dont want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. they usually come with very painful emotions, said roger pitman, a professor of psychiatry at harvard medical school. this could relieve a lot of that suffering.but those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change peoples memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity. they also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.all of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are. im not sure we want to wipe those memories out, said rebecca dresser, a medical ethicist.28. the passage is mainly about_.a. a new medical invention. b. a new research.c. a way of wiping out painful memories. d. an argument about the research on the pill.29. the drug tested on people can_.a. cause the brain to fix memories. b. stop people remembering bad experiences.c. stop body producing certain chemicals. d. wipe out the emotional effects of memories.30. we can infer from the passage that_.a. people doubt the effects of the pills.b. the pill will certainly stop peoples emotional memories.c. taking the pill will definitely do harm to peoples physical health.d. the pill has already been produced and used by the public in america.第二节：(共5小题；每小题2分,满分10分) 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。how to be a pleasant personeach of us would love to be appreciated for the positive emotions that are exhibited around our surroundings. 31 the following steps will help you to be a pleasant person.be modest. understand that we all are humans. you might be rich or poor, black or white, short or tall etc. but above all we are all humans, which means we are all emotional beings. so treat others the way you would like to be treated. 32 by offering a seat to an elderly person or throwing the football back to the young child, the inner self-satisfaction you get is priceless. once you do so, you will feel good about yourself.dont regret. we all are reasonable beings and it is very human to do unreasonable things at times. however, it does not mean that we should regret what we did in the past. every experience is a lesson which teaches you what to do and what not to do in future. 33 forgive and forget. always living in the past will only make one painful on the inside, which will reflect on the outside. 34 by doing so, your heart becomes light.be grateful. thank god and the universe for yourself, your parents, your friends, your clothes, jobs, food, home etc. and every small thing makes a difference. 35 it will make you appreciate life.a. be inspired.b. be helpful.c. little do we know that it is not a hard task at all.d. so be proud that you have learnt a lesson on your own.e. to have a pleasant emotion around you, it is better to let go.f. if possible, express your gratefulness for something

childrens lives.ive learned from other doctors that they also believe the demands of their profession will somehow adversely(不利地) affect their childs growth. i tell them not to worry, and that one day their child will thank them for their life as a doctors child.i can say this because i was three when my mother went to medical school.growing up as the daughter of a doctor wasnt easy:i came to understand that the sound of the hospital pager(呼叫器), day or night, meant my mothers absence, having to share her with other people, and being exposed to human suffering and death were just part of my life. however, being the child of a doctor had a positive effect on my life. i learned and experienced many things. here are two of them. i learned how others experience life. through my mothers work i was exposed to a variety of people, lifestyles, cultures and so on. i met patients who were dying and in pain, and
