sleep.charles czeisler, a professor at harvard medical school, and his colleagues got a small group of people for an experiment. for five days in a row, the people read either a paper book or an ipad for four hours before sleep. their sleep patterns were monitored all night. before and after each trial period, the people took hourly blood tests to paint a day-long picture of just how much melatonin (褪黑激素) was in their blood at any given time.when subjects read on the ipad as compared to the paper books, they reported feeling less sleepy at night and less active the following morning. people also took longer to fall asleep on the ipad nights, and the blood tests showed that their melatonin secretion (分泌) was delayed by an hour and a half.the researchers conclude in todays journal article that given the rise of e-readers and the increasingly widespread use of e-things among children and adolescents, more research into the long-term consequences of these devices on health and safety is urgently needed. czeisler and colleagues go on, in the research paper, to note：“reading an ipad in bed may increase cancer risk.”however, software has been developed that can reduce some of the blue light from the screens of phones and computers according to time of day, and there are also glasses that are made to filter (过滤) short wavelengths. while they seem like a logical solution for the nighttime tech users, it needs more research.28.in charles czeislers experiment, all the subjects were asked to_.a. sit in a row and receive the strict testsb. have their sleep patterns observed all nightc. read a paper book and an ipad at the same timed. have their blood tested per hour during the trial29.the third paragraph tells us the ipad readers were likely to_.a. feel less sleepy and tired in the day b. fall asleep more easily after readingc. become less energetic the next morningd. have a lot more melatonin secretion30.the special software recently developed can_.a. remove the blue light from your devices completelyb. help prevent eyes being harmed by short wavelengthc. weaken the harm done by doing nighttime e-readingd. be used in all the e-things widely and safely31.which of the following can be the best title for the text?a. no e-reading in bed before sleepb. new software for night e-readersc. wrong behaviors before bedtime d. no games on ipad in

short wavelength有助于防止眼睛受到短的波长的伤害；c. weaken the harm done by doing nighttime e-reading削弱夜间电子阅读所造成的伤害；d. be used in all the e-things widely and

to force money out of the pockets of silly and innocent people.the cost of producing a new - for example - toothpaste would make 80p the proper price for it, so we will market it at 1.20. it is not a bad toothpaste, and as people like to try new things it will sell well to start with; but the attraction of novelty soon fades, so sales will fall. when that happens we will reduce the price to 1.15. and we will turn it into a bargain by printing 5p off all over it.sometimes it is not 5p off but 1p off. what breathtaking rudeness to advertise 1p off your soap or washing powder or whatever! even the poorest old-age pensioner ought to regard this as an insult(侮辱), but he doesnt. a bargain must not be missed. people say one has to have washing powder (or whatever) and one might as well buy it a penny cheaper. the real danger starts when unnecessary things become bargains. many people just cannot resist bargains. provided they think they are getting a bargain they will buy clothes they will never wear or furniture they have no space for. once i heard of a man who bought an electric saw as a bargain and cut off two of his fingers the next day. but he had no regrets: the saw had been truly cheap.quite a few people actually believe that they make money on such bargains. a lady once told me: “ive had a lucky day today. i bought a dress for 120, reduced from 400; and i bought a beautiful persian carpet for 600, reduced from 900.” it will never occur to her that she has actually wasted 720. she feels as though she had made 580. she also feels, i am sure, that if she had more time for shopping, she could make a living out of it.some people buy in large quantities because it is cheaper. once a couple bought enough sugar for their lifetime and the lifetime of their children and grandchildren. they thought it a bargain not to be missed. when the sugar arrived they didnt know where to store it until they realized that their toilet was a very spacious one. so that was where they piled up their sugar. not only did their guests feel rather strange whenever they were offered sugar to put into their coffee, but the toilet became extremely sticky.to offer bargains is a commercial trick to make the poor poorer. when greedy fools fall for this trick, it serves them right. 32.which word best describes the language style of the passage?a. polite. b. foolish. c. humorous. d. serious.33.what does the underlined word “novelty” in paragraph 2 probably mean?a. good quality.b. low price. c. newness. d. curiosity. 34.how does the author feel about 1p off a product?a. its a gift for poor people. b. its an offense to shoppers.c. its a bargain worth trying. d. its a real reduction in price. 35.which statement will the author probably agree with?a. bargains are things people dont really need. b. bargains are often real cheap products. c. bargains help people make a living. d. bargains play tricks on people.【答案】32.c33.c34.b35.d【解析】试题分析：这是一篇议论文阅读，讲述人们购物时盲目追求折扣却有可能造成不理性消费的现象。32.c 细节理解题。根据通过全文给出的几个例子，如第四段买锯结果把自己锯了，倒数第二段的买糖结果放卫生间了等都能看出这是一种幽默的笔法，故选c。33.c 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的, and as people like to try new things it will sell well to start with推断出novelty为新鲜事物，故选c。34.b 细节理解题。根据文章第三段的even the poorest old-age pensioner ought to regard this as an insult(侮辱), but he doesnt.对应选项关键词是offence冒犯，故选b。35.d 推理判断题。根据大甩卖不一定买到的都是不需要的东西。a选项绝对化了。而大甩卖往往是某种刺激消费，如文中提到的买衣服和地毯的女性，买糖的夫妇，及最后的一段的to offer bargains is a commercial trick to make the poor poorer. 中的关键词commercial判断便宜销售就是商家玩地把戏。故选d。考点：日常生活类阅读 第二节
