He was also a famous speaker. He was famous for his sense of humour. Many people liked to listen to him , because he liked to tell some interesting stories to make people laugh all the time.One day Mark Twain was going to a small town because of his writing. Before he was going to leave, one of his friends said to him that there were always a lot of mosquitoes(蚊子) in the town and told him that hed better not go there. Mark Twain waved his hand and said, “It doesnt matter. The mosquitoes are no relatives of mine. I dont think they will come to visit me.”After he arrived at the town, Mark Twain stayed in a small hotel near the station. He went into his room, but when he was just about to have a rest, quite a few mosquitoes flew about him. The waiters felt very sorry about that. “Im very sorry, Mr. Mark Twain. There are too many mosquitoes in our town.” One of them said to him.Mark Twain, however, made a joke, saying to the waiter, “The mosquitoes are very clever. They know my room number. They didnt come into the wrong room.” What he said made all the people present laugh heartily.But that night Mark Twain slept well. Do you know why?

But there are still doubters out there. To help spread the power of the afternoon nap, we list some common misunderstandings about napping we still hear. Misunderstanding # 1 : Napping is only for the lazy. Fact: Around a third of American adults nap on the average day, and for good reason: A short nap can improve everything from alertness(警觉) and memory to creativity and productivity(生产效率). And none of these sounds like laziness to us! Misunderstanding # 2 : If I take a nap, Ill only wake up feeling worse. Fact: That weak feeling after you wake up from a nap is real (it even has a name: sleep inertia), but its not a guarantee(保证). How you feel after your nap is a factor of how long you sleep. Experts generally agree that a nap should last no longer than 30 minutes. “If it takes longer than 30 minutes, you end up in deep sleep. Youre going into a stage of sleep where you find it very difficult to wake up.” said sleep expert Michael J. Breus, Ph. D. Next time youre in the mood for a nap, set your alarm for 20 to 30 minutes, tops. Misunderstanding # 3 : You mustnt nap at work. Fact: In fact, in the office environment, were all for catching a few winks (眨眼) during the workday. Some companies have even created special rooms for afternoon naps as more and more employers come around to the idea that a well-rested workforce is a more productive workforce. If your employer doesnt offer a place to lay your head, try to find an empty conference room where you can close the door and turn off the lights. Really want. You can also take a nap during your lunch break on a park bench or in your car. Misunderstanding # 4 : Ill be more productive if I just finish this task, rather than waste time sleeping. Fact: Yes, youll be away from your desk if you spend 10 to 30 minutes sleeping. But youll likely make up for that “wasted” time afterward. “My research shows that people feel tired after a long time of work during the day,” Sara Mednick told Bloomberg Businessweek. “Its difficult to keep energetic and productive all day.” However, a nap can leave you feeling refreshed and more ready to deal with the task at hand.25.According to the passage, a short nap has the following benefits EXCEPT . A. making people think more quickly B. improving peoples memoryC. allowing old people to live longer D. raising peoples work efficiency 26.How you feel after your nap is connected with _. A. the way of sleep B. the place of sleep C. the environment of sleep D. the length of sleep 27. Sara Mednick indicates that _. A. taking a short nap at work is a waste of time B. people become less productive without a nap C. people become less productive after a nap D. napping is only for the lazy and young children28.Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The advantages of taking a nap. B. The more naps you take, the more productive you become. C. 4 things people get wrong about napping. D. How to take an afternoon nap correctly.【答案】25.C26.D27.B28.C【解析】试题分析: 文中主要讲述了关于午睡的一些误区。25.C考察细节理解题。根据文意 A short nap can improve everything from alertness(警觉) and memory to creativity and productivity(生产效率).

Sounds easy, right? But the competitors werent peoplethey were robots!The bots were participating in(参加) the final round of the USs DARPA(Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) Robotics Challenge. This event, which took place on June 5-6, tested robots on how well they could respond during a disaster and the winning team finally took home a $2 million grand prize.The DARPA challenge was created after the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan. An earthquake caused a tsunami, which damaged a nuclear power plant. Workers at the plant needed to shut off an important valve(阀门), but it was too dangerous for humans to reach it. The US scientists at DARPA wondered whether the disaster could have been avoided if a robot had been sent to do the job. So they set up the robotics competition.Turning a valve was just one task a robot might have to perform when entering a disaster zone. In addition to doing this, robots participating in the challenge had to navigate a course containing several other tasks: driving and exiting a vehicle, opening a door, walking over or clearing objects, cutting a hole in a wall, plus climbing a flight of stairs.Teams had to complete the challenge in one hour, and points were awarded based on how quickly the robots completed a task. They didnt have to attempt all the tasks. To make things even more realistic, challenge organizers caused short computer-system blackouts(断电) that prevented robots and the human operators controlling them from communicating. That means teams had to program their robots to be partially autonomous(独立的). Robots also couldnt be attached to anything that could keep them from falling down, which happened a lot.29. What do we know about this years DARPA challenge? A. It lasted five days.B. It was held in Japan.C. Its winner got a cash prize.D. Its winner will work in Fukushima.30.What does the underlined part “the job” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. To open a door. B. To close a valve. C. To predict a tsunami. D.
