those wanting a good nights sleep. but now a study has found it really does help people nod offif it is milked from a cow at night.researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin(褪黑激素)， which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.the study, by researchers from seoul, south korea involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in the journal of medicinal food.night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.while the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content , which helps people to relax. milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. the more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night.28. according to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk .a.

an experiment on mice.d. milk drinking and health.31. how does the author support the theme of the text?a. by giving examples. b. by stating arguments.c. by explaining statistical data.d. by providing

(萎缩）population. most young japanese women simply dont seem interested in having many children.now what began in japan is happening globally. as david brooks wrote, birth rate is becoming smaller in much of the world, from iran-1.7 births rate per woman-to russian, where low birth rates connected with high death rates mean the population is already shrinking. and this includes us, which has long had higher birth rates than most developed nations. aging countries will face the burden of caring for large elderly populations without a larger resource of young workers.its true that global aging is going to present some major challenges. who will take care of the elderly? will an older world be less active and slower to change and adapt? its all true. sometimes i worry about a coming generational war over resources, just as i worry about how i will take care of my own parents in their old age, just as i worry about who might take care of me.but heres the thing: an older world may have less pressure on the environment. as we all know, the environment is the real victim of overpopulation.so maybe a world that grows slower and grows older will put less pressure on the environment, and buy us a few more years to ensure our energy use, along with our birthrates, reaches a sustainable (可持续的）level. after all, were supposed to get smarter as we got older. hopefully that holds true for the planet as well.32. the population issue in japan was mentioned to .a. show young peoples preference to marriage.b. introduce the topic of global birth rate becoming smaller.c. indicate the deeper cause of japans depression.d. emphasize the revolution of japanese women.33. which of the following statements is true according to david brooks?a. the birth rates all over the world are becoming smaller. b. the most developed countries have higher death rates.c. america is the only developed country with higher birthrate.d. birth rates becoming smaller means a great risk to aging countries.34. which will be caused by low birth rates according to the passage?a. environmental problems. b. high death rates.c. low employment rates. d. aging society.35. whats the authors attitude to the worldwide birth rates becoming smaller?a. anxious. b. disappointed c. hopeful. d. doubted.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。选项中油两项为多余选项。eyesight plays a very important
