Humans are born naturally to sleep best at night and be awake during the day. However, modern work schedules require some people to try to adapt the 41 schedule of shift work (轮班) being awake at night and sleeping during the day. In order to make this 42 acceptable to you, you need to pay special attention to your sleep environment and your preparation for sleep. If shift work is a necessary part of your work life, here are some suggestions that may help.Arrange to sleep in a(n) 43 condition. This means you may have to unplug your phone, hang darkening curtains on the windows or wear a sleep eye mask, and ask your family and friends to 44 you alone while you sleep. Fit in a nap. When your daytime sleep period is too short, taking a short nap of less than 30 minutes just before work or on a break has been shown to 45 energy and enhance performance. Develop and follow a sleep routine. Its best if you go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day. Try not to 46 this too much on weekends. Your body likes routine.Take extra care to make healthy choices. You may be 47 to reach for unhealthy foods or nicotine (尼古丁) to stay awake or alcohol to try to sleep. But in the end these choices are more harmful than helpful. If you have tried all these things and are still having problems getting enough 48 sleep during the day, talk to your doctor or a sleep specialist. Sometimes medical treatment may be helpful and safe. In other cases, there may be a potential sleep disorder that needs to be 49 as soon as possible. 41.D42.B43.J44.I 45.A46.H47.F48.E49.G虹口区Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

What drives them? Interviews and investigations _41_ that there are several keys to success that successful people share.First of all, successful people never blame someone or something outside of themselves for their _42_ to go ahead. They realize that their future lies in their own hands. They understand that they cannot _43_ things in life, such as nature, the past and other people. But in the meantime, they are well aware that they can control their own thoughts and actions. They take _44_ for their life and regard this as one of the most empowering things they can do. Perhaps what most _45_ successful people from others is that they live a life “on purpose” - they are doing what they believe they are put here to do. In their opinion, having a purpose in their life is the most important element that enables them to become fully _46_ people. They hold that when they live their life on purpose, their main concern is to do the job right. They love what they do - and it shows. People want to do business with them because of their commitment (责任心). To live their life on purpose, successful people find a cause they believe in and _47_ a business around it. Besides, they never easily give up. Once they have set up goals in their life, they are _48_ to do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Rather than seeing it _49_ or depressing they use the knowledge to spur themselves on and go after what they want energetically and passionately.41 - 49: CFHDB JAGE静安区Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

The latest _41_ on superfast broadband delivered by fiber to the home (FTTH) show 18% growth over the last survey compiled in late 2008.The continued growth suggests that the _42_ economic decline has not hit plans to build fiber networks. Sweden _43_ the list of nations applying the technology, with 10.9% of its broadband customers using fiber. Karel Helsen, president of Europes Fiber-To-The-Home Council, said the growth matched predictions that were _44_ when the credit crisis started to make itself felt. “The numbers in 2009 are in line with the latest forecasts,” said Mr. Helsen.By 2012, the FTTH Council expects that 13 million people across 35 European nations will have their broadband delivered by fiber. Such services would start at a speed of 100 megabits per second (mbps), said Mr. Helsen. Around Europe more than 233 projects were underway to lay the fibers that would _45_ homes or buildings to the net, said Mr. Helsen. Many of those, he said, were being operated by local governments or smaller net firms. Local governments were interested in FTTH because of the economic and social _46_ it brought in its wake, said Mr. Helsen.The low delay in high-speed fiber networks made _47_ new uses of broadband, he said. “No delay is very important,” he said, “specifically if you talk about _48_ that are time-dependent such as personal communications, conference calls or video calls where delays cause a lot of trouble.” While early FTTH services were _49_ in cities, said Mr. Helsen, many more were reaching out to rural areas for e-health and e-learning projects.4149 EHJCF GBDA浦东新区4149.

Indeed it is, for during childhood, one undergoes a step-by-step transformation not only in 41 capacity, but also in physical and verbal skills. Each step 42 an increase in the difficulty of a childs conceptual and learning abilities. During the early stages of childhood, from infancy to about five, the child learns simple skills including using the toilet, bathing and dressing himself 43 . At this stage, he also learns to be very observant, curious, imaginative and creative. His ability to remember things also 44 at this stage. He remembers details that an adult may have difficulty in remembering. Gradually, he learns 45 skills in problem-solving. At school, particular in art classes, the child is especially creative. Given a piece of paper and some colored pencils, he draws a variety of 46 from his surroundings as well as from his family circle. It is not surprising to see a child draw a 47 to represent an abusive father, and an angel to represent a loving and caring mother. As he graduates to the later stages of childhood bordering on the teenage years, the child learns the 48 of human relations and socialization by interacting with his peershis friends and schoolmates. He also learns to 49 with new life situations, including dates and part-time work. Given a tight schedule of schoolwork, the child learns to prepare his own schedules of work and play; the more practical and less serious ones manage to take time out of their busy schedules of assignments, reports and tests and examinations to go with their friends on relaxation entertainment. 4145 GDFIC4649BJAH普陀区Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

The authors at the Safra Center for Brain Science at Hebrew University in Israel put people who had been blind since birth through 70 hours of training with a visual-to-auditory sensory (感官的) substitution 42 .Initially, the subjects were able to 43 among faces, houses, everyday objects, and body shapes. They were able to read letters and words, identify facial expressions and locate peoples positions 44 . In one video, a blind person is shown a picture of a woman with a ponytail and identified the hairstyle.Blind people have long used the capability to use another sensory ability to make up for blindness: Braille and blind walking canes allow people without sight to read and navigate. But when the authors of the current study put subjects in a brain scanner, they 45 insight into the process by which training with a sensory substitution device allowed the minds eye to “see”.The human brain is a 46 efficient and adaptable organ: when a sensory perception such as sight is lost, the specialized regions of the brain in which input from the eyes is processed are 47 to other duties.But scientists have long believed that the brains 48 is limited by early conditions: when a person is born blind, the capacity of the brains visual cortex (大脑皮层) to process sight never develops, scientists have believed. With that 49 opportunity, a window is closed, and even if eyesight were to be restored, the visual cortex, they believed, would forever remain “blind” to images.CDHEB JGAI（徐汇、松江、金山）Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

Whenever she walks into a room, heads turn. Her friends wonder how she managed to get the new Mulberry handbag that no one had thought was 41 in Australia yet.The truth is that Olivia has never left Australia. But with a few clicks of her computer mouse, she can travel to shopping 42 around the world. Online shopping has 43 the consumer experience. With the help of an increasing number of online shops overseas, shoppers can now pick up interesting goods from all over the world. The biggest advantage of shopping on foreign websites is the wide range of choices available. For example, Chinese shoppers are often disappointed when Gap products are not available locally. But now its possible to order these products straight from the US with a credit card and a small 44 fee. Other benefits of online shopping include 45 prices. When items are bought online from other countries, theyre often tax-free.However, when you buy things from a foreign website, things can get 46 too. So make sure you pay extra attention to protecting your rights.Sometimes it can be difficult to handle foreign websites because of the unfamiliar language. For example, the term “shipped in 1-5 working days” can be confusing for Chinese shoppers, as it doesnt clarify whether this is the time in which the product will arrive or the time it takes for it to be 47 .The method of shipping can also determine whether you get your product at all. Unless you choose express or priority shipping, which only takes a few days to deliver but is more expensive, most 48 international shipping doesnt offer a tracking option which means once your products are shipped outside of the country theres no way of finding out where they are.The best consumers are the most sensible ones. If youre interested in expanding your shopping 49 to foreign websites, make sure you do your research beforehand to avoid your money and products being lost on the way.41. C 42. D 43. A 44. J 45.
