参考答案：C

第二段的第三个句子谈到，“控制我们睡眠的是神经激素”，而这一段的最后一

个句子告诉我们“含咖啡因咖啡能使这种睡眠激素减半”。这正是咖啡因影响睡

眠的原理。

第33题:

Whatdoesparagraph3mainlydiscuss?

A.Differenteffectsofcaffeinatedcoffeeanddecafonsleep.

B.DifferentfindingsofLotanShiloandateamaboutcaffeine.

C.Thefactthatthesubjectsslept415minutespernightafterdrinking

decaf.

D.Theevidencethatthesubjectstookhalfanhourtofallasleep.

参考答案：A

第三段涉及的是一个实验，这个实验的目的是测试含咖啡因咖啡和脱咖啡因咖啡

对睡眠的影响，该段主要谈论的是这个实验的结果。

第34题：

Whatdoestheexperimentmentionedinparagraph4prove?

A.Therearemoreenzymesindecafdrinkers'urinesample.

B.Therearemoremelatoninconcentrationsincaffeinedrinkers'urine

sample.

C.Decafdrinkersproducelessmelatonin.

D.Caffeinedrinkersproducelesssleephormone.

参考答案：D

第四段是第三段实验的继续，是该实验的第二个阶段。研究人员通过对志愿者的

尿进行化验发现，咖啡因摄入者体内的褪黑激素仅为非咖啡因摄入者的一半。褪

黑激素就是睡眠激素，所以答案应该选D。

第35题：

Theauthorofthispassageprobablyagreesthat

A.coffeeloverssleeplessthanthosewhodonotdrinkcoffee.

B.weshouldnotdrinkcoffeeaftersupper.

C.peoplesleepmoresoundlyatmidnightthanat3am.

D.ifwefeelsleepyatnight,weshouldgotobedimmediately.

参考答案：B

文章的结尾谈到，“Ohayon建议爱喝咖啡的人午饭后应该换喝脱咖啡因咖啡”。

12

另外，整个文章都在探讨咖啡因影响睡眠的机理，所以，作者大概会同意“晚饭

后不应该喝咖啡”的说法。选项A是，一个全称判断，这等于说“所有喜欢喝咖

啡的人都比不喝咖啡的人睡觉少"。这不一定，因为如果咖啡适量，喝咖啡的时

间适当，咖啡不会影响睡眠。所以，作者可能不会同意这种说法。根据文章第二

段第二个句子，选项C是错的。根据文章第二段的第一个句子，我们体内褪黑激

素（睡眠激素）的浓度在我们上床时间前两个小时开始上升，而这个时候我们会开

始有困意。反过来说就是，人们并非一有困意就睡觉。所以，选项D不是答案。
