从每题所给的四个选项 A B C 和 D 中 选出最佳选项 并在答题 卡上将该项涂黑 A The Ostrich Pillow was created by a European designer who wanted to find a creative way to provide people with the health and productivity benefits commonly associated with power napping 小憩 Power napping is as important as normal sleep Only when you re done with a power nap are you expected to actually work better When you wake up from a normal nap it s completely OK to glance around the room confirm that John Hodgman riding a unicorn 独角兽 was just an amazing dream and then roll over to fall back asleep But the Ostrich Pillow is specifically designed for those shorter periods of rest the power naps and the creators say that their invention allows you to sleep anytime anywhere by creating a little private space within a public 用心 爱心 专心 6 one to relax and rest Perhaps this says a lot about people s attitudes toward napping and the importance of taking a little nap during the busy workday The advertisement for the Ostrich Pillow even claims that a 20 minute power nap can increase productivity by 37 Amazing I can only dream of all the things I would get done at the office if I actually worked at 37 productivity And to think all I need is a quick nap as soon as I get to my desk In general the Ostrich Pillow seems like a great idea It s convenient It s comfortable It has a place for your hands But the big question is whether people will actually wear it in public Nevertheless I m still hoping to get my hands on one of these to give it a proper test drive But until then if you need me I ll be sleeping buried on my desk 56

Ostrich Pillow A Comfortable and cheap B Productive and relaxing C Convenient and comfortable D Special and attractive 59 What can we learn from the last paragraph A The writer has got an Ostrich Pillow B The writer is willing to have a drive test C The writer will be sleeping on his desk without that D The writer expects to own an Ostrich Pillow 60 What might be the author s purpose of writing the text A To introduce an invention for power snapping B To advertise a new invention the Ostrich Pillow C To inform people the importance of power snapping D To tell people a better way of keeping power snapping B Fernando and I were arguing about why I never took any real vacations When he suggested we go off somewhere for three entire weeks You decide I said He chose a little fishing village off the coast and he planned out a schedule Our trip was full of wormer and fun but when we got there the shabby hotel failed to satisfy us so we left a day early for the beach As we drove we passed two orphanages 孤儿院 Christmas was only a few days away and I felt that I should stop to do something for the children 用心 爱心 专心 7 Then Femando came up with a plan to help the poor children we saw We made a list of names and then we went into town to buy new clothes toys and school supplies For the rest of the day we filled backpacks We were excited about the celebration we had plantted for the next day December 26 when we d invite the families to the beach in front of the hotel and hand out the presents Fernando and I were still in bed at around 9 00 the next morning when we heard a cracking sound What is that I asked As if in response water started pouring into our room The children s backpacks we had arranged so neatly on the floor began floating around The next thing I knew was that the roof was torn off and Fernando and I were swept out I thought I was going to die Under the water I forced myself to calm down and then I popped out Suddenly I saw Fernando only four feet away What just happened I asked Fernando Tsunami 海啸 he shouted to me Just be strong Whatever it was he told me It s all over now But a few seconds later another wave buried us I tried to grab him as he reached out to me but he fell back under the water and I never saw him again 61 What can we learn about the trip A Fernando often argued with the author about their trips B The author chose a little fishing village off the coast C They would stay in the orphanages for Christmas Day D Their trip was satisfying at the beginning 62 The author and Femando left for the beach early because A they were afraid of being late B the hotel disappointed them C they wanted to be there ahead of others D they wanted to do something for the children 63 When did the author go for the vacation A A few days before Christmas B Three weeks after Christmas C On Christmas Day D At 9 00 on December 26 64 From the passage we can learn that the author and his friend A bought a lot of gifts for their children B intended to invite many friends to their house C managed to finish their trip as planned D tried to help each other in face of danger 65 What do you think the author would continue to write about A How his trip was ruined B When Fernando came back to him C How he survived D Why the disaster happened C American officials have sharply reduced their expecmtions for this year s corn and soybean crops Farmers in the Midwest are struggling with record heat and the worst drought 干旱 in many years 用心 爱心 专心 8 The United States is the world s largest producer of com and soybeans Last Friday the Agriculture Department predicted corn production would add up to 10 8 billion bushels this year That was down 17 from a prediction made just a month ago And it was down 13 from last year s level The average yield 产量 per hectare could be the lowest in seventeen years At the sarne time the government predicted that soybean production would be 12 lower than last year The price of corn has hit record levels Corn is a major part of animal feed so the price of meat milk and eggs is also expected to climb The FAO says average food prices worldwide rose 6 in July The American drought was a big reason The situation has renewed the fight between food and fuel About 40 of the nation s corn crop goes into making ethanol 乙醇 The production process leaves some of that in a form that can be fed to animals Still at least one fourth of the American corn crop is now made into fuel The United States requires that part of its corn crop be used in the production of biofuels 生物燃料 The use of ethanol has grown as government requirements have increased But Jose the head of the FAO called for an immediate temporary pause of that requirement He said more of the American corn production could then be used as food or to feed animals The American livestock 家畜 industry is also urging Congress to stop the law that requires ethanol in gasoline But corn farmer Alan Bennett says doing that would hurt his town A 2005 law requires automobile fuel to contain ethanol The growth of the ethanol industry and competition for corn has been helping parts of rural America that had been reducing for years 66 What s the main idea of the passage A Average food prices rose all over the world B The decrease of crops in America restarted the fight between food and fuel C The argument between farmers and the American livestock industry came up D America produces most of the corn and soybeans in the world 67 What does the writer want to indicate using so much data in Paragraph 2 A The production of corn and soybeans in America reduces sharply B American officials predicted that corn production would reduce C America is the world s largest producer of corn and soybeans D Farmers in the Midwest of America are having a hard time 68 Why did average food prices worldwide rise 6 in July A Because the price of corn crop has got to the top of history B Because much of the corn crop in the world goes into making ethanol C Because America is suffering the worst drought D Because most of the corn has been fed to animals 69 Which of the following statements is TRUE 用心 爱心 专心 9 A Ethanol should be added to all gasoline according to the American law B Forty percent of the nation s com crop is now made into fuel C America requires the use of ethanol be stopped temporarily D Most American corn has been used as food or to feed animals 70 What can we infer from the last two paragraphs A The requirement of ethanol really hurts parts of rural America B There is some competition between the ethanol industry and rural America C The law that requires ethanol in gasoline will be passed before long D The farmers in America benefited greatly from the requirement of ethanol D Cathy is a tetraplegic She has not been able to move her arms legs or speak since suffering a stroke 中风 nearly fifteen years ago Recently she learned how to control a robotic arm using her thoughts She now can use brain activity to serve herself a drink The American woman is one of two people who took part in a research project known as BrainGate2 The researchers have spent years studying how to help people who are disabled regain movement in their arms and legs John who is a neuroscientist 神经科学家 and also was part of the project said Our idea is to avoid that damaged nervous system and go directly from the brain to the outside world so the brain signals can not control muscle but control machines or devices 设备 like a computer or a robotic arm The two disabled people had small sensors connected to the part of the brain that controls movement The devices measured brain activity and sent that information to a computer The computer has special software that turns the information into digital commands for operating other devices The researchers used a highly developed robotic arm to recreate human actions The BrainGate team had its first success in 2006 A victim was able to use the brain computer system to control a computer mouse John says the latest development using robotic arms is a major victory A video of the latest experiment shows Cathy using the robotic arm to pick up a cup of coffee She guides the cup toward her mouth moves it forward and drinks through a straw Lead researcher Leigh Hochberg said it was an unbelievable moment The research team carded out almost 200 tests with two different robotic arms which were able to pick up their target objects 43 to 66 of the time The researchers are calling the information very promising But they say it will take years to fully develop the technology for everyday use 71 What can we know about Cathy from this passage A She is an expert about the stroke 用心 爱心 专心 10 B She
