in my case it was definitely made. in my early 20s, i hardly went to bed before midnight, and i would always get up late the next morning. but after a while i couldnt ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. on those rare occasions where i did get up early, i noticed that my productivity （效率）was always higher. so i set out to become a habitual early riser. but whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noise and go back to sleep. eventually some sleep research showed that my strategy was wrong. the most common wrong strategy is this: supposing youre going to get up earlier, youd better go to bed earlier. it sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail. there are two main schools（流派）of thought on sleep patterns. one is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day. the second school says you should go to bed when youre tired and get up when you naturally wake up. however, i have found both are wrong if you care about productivity. if you sleep at fixed hours, youll sometimes go to bed when you arent sleepy enough. youre wasting time lying in bed awake. my solution is to combine both methods. i go to bed when im sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time. so i always get up at the same time（in my case 5 a.m.）, but i go to bed at different times every night. however, going to bed only when im sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning are my ways. if you want to become an early riser, you can try your own.24. according to the passage, the underlined phrase refers to _.a. people who stay up until the next morningb. people who feel sleepy in the morning c. people who get up early in the morning d. people whose productivity is the lowest in the morning25. why did the author want to become a habitual early riser? a. because he / she wanted to have more sleep time. b. because he / she found that the productivity was higher. c. because he / she wanted to do morning exercise. d. because he / she wanted to test which school is better.26. the author experienced all the following except _. a. going to bed after midnight b. asking scholars for advice on sleeping habits c. pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping d. getting up early occasionally27. the passage is mainly about _.a. main schools of thought on sleep patterns b. how to have a good sleepc. wrong strategies for getting up early d. how to become an early riserc 2014 saw that the ebola virus reappeared in guinea and soon spread into neighbouring liberia and sierra leone, killing over 7,800 people by the new year of 2015. it leads to viral hemorrhagic fever, which is characterized by high fever and internal bleeding etc.ebola is named after the ebola river, where it was first discovered in 1976. there are five different types of the ebola virus, each named after where they first happened: sudan, ivory coast, reston, bundibugyo, and zaire. the deadliest of the five, zaire, was responsible for the 2012 out- break, and is believed to be attacking guinea. ebola is naturally found in fruit bats, which pass on the virus to other animals by biting or sucking on their blood. humans who are suffering from the ebola infection might have touched the bodily fluids of the infected animals. once infected, a human becomes a carrier of the deadly virus.unfortunately, there are no disease - specific treatments for ebola. health - care workers only supply the infected people with physiological saline（生理盐水）to keep them in good condition. ebola can kill 90% of those infected, especially in underdeveloped societies like those in africa. since there have been many cases of nurses catching the disease from patients, they are forced to wear strict protective clothes, and in some cases, not even allowed to get close to the infected. the fact that there is no cure for the ebola virus is what makes the outbreak a challenging one to control.whats worse, since we live in an interconnected world, where the situation in one country can affect us all, the influences of ebola are huge: damaging trade relations, affecting foreign visitors, and weakening entire countries. it is feared that the disease may spread throughout west african countries. for every country, a strong health system can decrease the risk of health attack and lessen the impact of ebola.28. what is the function of the first paragraph in the whole passage? a. to arouse the readers concern. b. to summarize the whole passage. c. to give a detailed description of ebola. d. to introduce the theme of the whole passage.29. what can we infer about the ebola virus? a. it has caused a panic in many countries. b. it is the most dangerous virus in the world. c. a strong health system is important to fight against ebola. d. anyone who was infected ebola will die.30. paragraph 3 mainly tells us _. a. what the ebola virus is b. how the ebola virus spreads c. how the ebola virus is treated d. how the ebola virus affects the life31. which of the following is true? a. there are no effective drugs to treat ebola by far. b. ebola is now very common in guinea. c. those with a fever must be infected by ebola. d. females are easier to be infected by ebola.d as more people use smart phones to pay bills and store personal information, strict password security has become more important than ever. a new study shows that free - form gestures sweeping fingers in shapes across the screen of a smart phonecan be used to unlock phones. these gestures are less likely to be observed and reproduced by others than traditional typed passwords.“all that it takes to steal a password is a quick eye,” said one of the researchers of the study. “with all the personal information we have on our phones today, improving their security is becoming increasingly necessary.” in developing a secure solution to this problem, the researchers studied the practicality of using free - form gestures. with the ability to create any shape in any size and location on the screen, the gestures were popular as passwords. since users create them without following a template, the researchers predicted these gestures would allow for greater complexity.the researchers carried out a create - test - retest experiment where 63 people were asked to create a gesture, recall it, and recall it again 10 days later. the gestures were captured on a recognizer system designed by the team. using this data, they tested the complexity and accuracy of each gesture using information theory. the result of their analysis is that people are favorable to use free - form gestures as passwords.to put their analysis into practice, the researchers then had seven students in computer science and engineering, each with considerable experience with touchscreens（触摸屏）, attempt to steal a free - form gesture password by observing a phone user secretly. none of them were able to copy the gestures with enough accuracy. the gestures appear to be extremely powerful against attacks.though the testing is in its early stage and widespread adaptation of this technology is not yet clear, the research team plans to continue to analyze the security and management of free form passwords in the future. they believe this is the first study to explore free - form gestures as passwords. they will soon publish their findings.32. what can we learn about free - form gestures? a. they are improving mobile security in a way. b. users will have to make use of simple gestures. c. they will never be copied by others. d. users must move their fingers in fixed shapes.33. the experiment in paragraph 4 is to test _ of free - form gestures. a. template b. application c. accuracy d. security34. according to the text, the researchers think that _. a. it is easy to steal any password with a quick eye b. better ways of setting passwords should be developed c. people had better not use smart phones to pay bills d. personal information should not be stored in a phone35. the main purpose of the text is to _. a. advise people to use free - form gestures b. discuss whether smart phones are safe c. talk about the practicality of passwords d. introduce the study of a new password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。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。tips for the perfect selfie（自拍） you can take a selfie with a hand - held digital camera or mobile phone and later share it on the internet. so selfies have been especially popular over the years. 36 love them or hate them, selfies show no sign of stopping.after all, the selfie is the most important way to show off on holiday. everyone has his own way to take the holiday selfies. how can you take the best holiday selfies?
