D.Critical.【答案】12.D13.C14.C15.A【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。研究发现，熬夜对我们的脑力有好处，夜猫子可能比早睡的人更聪明。【12题详析】推理判断题。根据第二段中“Goingtobedlateisstronglyassociatedwithcreativetypes.Artists,authorsandmusiciansknowntobenightowlsincludeJamesJoyceandLadyGaga.(晚睡与有创造力的人密切相关。已知的夜猫子艺术家、作家和音乐家包括JamesJoyce和LadyGaga)”可推知，本段提到JamesJoyce和LadyGaga是为了说明熬夜与创造力之间的联系。故选D。【13题详析】推理判断题。根据第三段中“Wefoundthatsleepdurationhasadirecteffectonbrainfunction,andwebelievethatactivelymanagingsleeppatternsisreallyimportantforboostingandsafeguardingthewayourbrainswork.We’dideallyliketoseepolicyinterventions(干预)tohelpsleeppatternsimproveinthegeneralpopulation.(我们发现睡眠时间对大脑功能有直接影响，我们相信积极管理睡眠模式对于促进和保护大脑的工作方式非常重要。”理想情况下，我们希望看到政策干预来帮助改善普通人群的睡眠模式)”可知，ProfDaqingMa认为睡眠时间对大脑功能有直接影响，积极管理睡眠模式很重要，并且希望看到政策干预来改善普通人群的睡眠模式。由此推知，他可能会同意学校应该推迟上课时间以适应青少年的生物钟这一观点，因为这有助于改善青少年的睡眠模式。故选C。【14题详析】词句猜测题。根据第一段“Theideathatnightowlswhodon’tgotobeduntiltheearlyhoursstruggletogetanythingdoneduringthedaymayhavetoberevised.Itturnsoutthatstayinguplatecouldbegoodforourbrainpowerasresearchsuggeststhatpeoplewhoidentifyasnightowlscouldbesharperthanthosewhogotobeearly.(‘夜猫子’直到凌晨才上床睡觉，白天很难完成任何事情，这种想法可能需要修改了。事实证明，熬夜对我们的脑力有好处，研究表明，夜猫子可能比早起的人更聪明)”可知，‘夜猫子’白天很难完成任何事情的这个想法可能需要修改了，研究表明，夜猫子可能比早起的人更聪明，由此推知，划线词所在句意为“这项研究的主要价值在于挑战人们对睡眠的刻板印象”，stereotypes意为“刻板印象”，故选C。【15题详析】推理判断题。通读全文，作者首先介绍了新研究的内容和发现，然后引用了研究人员的观点，接着又提到了其他专家对研究结果的谨慎态度，并指出了研究的局限性。由此推知，作者对这一研究持客观态度。故选A。第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。I’vealwaysdislikedgettingupinwinter.Asachild,Iwoulddragmyselfoutofbed,myeyeshalf-closed,andwatchmyschooluniformwarmingontheradiator.____16____It’stoodark,andIamalwayshalf-asleep.____17____Mostofthemarefun,butfewreallychangemylifeinthelongrun.Sunrisealarmclocks,however,aredifferent.They’vebecomeafundamentalpartofmymorningroutine.Mytoppicks,theLumieBodyclockSpark100andPhilipsSmartSleep,havegreatlybenefitedme.I’mwakingupeverydayfeelingmoreenergeticandmentallysharper.Essentially,sunrisealarmclocksareacombinationofalarmclockandlighttreatmentdevicethatshineswithincreasingbrightnessasyourwake-uptimeapproaches.Thelightinteractswithournaturalsleep-wakecycle,muchasthesundoeswhenitrises.____18____Sunrisealarmclocksalsopromotehealthiersleephabits.Inourtech-drivenworld,wakingupoftenmeansimmediatelycheckingourphones.Animportantstrengthofsunrisealarmclocksisthatyourmorningwake-upnolongerinvolvesyourphone.Stoppingasmartphonealarmmeansyourdaybeginswitheyeson-screen.____19____Butwiththeseclocks,youcanstartthedaywithaclearermindandmoreconcentration.Sleepispersonal,andnosingledevicefitseveryone.Butforme,sunrisealarmclockshavebeenagame-changer.They’reaffordable,withqualitymodelsavailableforunder£30.____20____Afterall,somemorningpeoplearemade,notborn.A.Theyprovetofallintothisuniquecategory.B.Interestedintech,Ioftentestfascinatingdevices.C.Therefore,wewakeupbiologicallypreparedfortheday.D.Thepathtoendlessscreentimeisjustafingerprintaway.E.Thesedays,IsetmultiplealarmstoensureI’mwokenup.F.Ifyouarestrugglingwithdarkmornings,it’sworthashot.G.AllofthesunrisealarmclocksI’vetestedhavetheirstrengths.【答案】16.E17.B18.C19.D20.F【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了日出闹钟的功能、优点以及作者个人的使用体验。详细解释了日出闹钟如何结合闹钟和光治疗设备的功能，通过逐渐增强的光线亮度来模拟日出，从而帮助人们更自然地醒来，并促进更健康的睡眠习惯。【16题详析】根据上文“Asachild,Iwoulddragmyselfoutofbed,myeyeshalf-closed,andwatchmyschooluniformwarmingontheradiator.(小时候，我会半闭着眼睛，拖着自己从床上起来，看着我的校服在暖气片上暖着)”以及下文“It’stoodark,andIamalwayshalf-asleep.(天太黑了，我总是处于半睡半醒的状态)”可推测，这里说的是现在作者起床的状况。选项E“Thesedays,IsetmultiplealarmstoensureI’mwokenup.(如今，我会设置好几个闹钟来确保自己能醒来)”符合语境，衔接上下文，说明现在作者为了起床所采取的措施。故选E。【17题详析】根据下文“Mostofthemarefun,butfewreallychangemylifeinthelongrun.Sunrisealarmclocks,however,aredifferent.(其中大多数都很有趣，但从长远来看，真正改变我生活的很少。然而，日出闹钟就不一样了)”可推测，空处要提到“them”所指代的内容。选项B“Interestedintech,Ioftentestfascinatingdevices.(因为对科技感兴趣，我经常测试一些有趣的设备)”能引出下文，说明作者测试各种设备，然后引出对日出闹钟的介绍。其中的“devices”与下文的“them”指代一致。故选B。【18题详析】根据上文“Essentially,sunrisealarmclocksareacombinationofalarmclockandlighttreatmentdevicethatshineswithincreasingbrightnessasyourwake-uptimeapproaches.Thelightinteractswithournaturalsleep-wakecycle,muchasthesundoeswhenitrises.(从本质上讲，日出闹钟是闹钟和光疗设备的结合，随着起床时间的临近，它会越来越亮。这种光线与我们自然的睡眠-觉醒周期相互作用，就像太阳升起时一样)”可知，这里说的是日出闹钟的原理以及对我们的影响。选项C“Therefore,wewakeupbiologicallypreparedfortheday.(因此，我们醒来时在生理上已经为新的一天做好了准备)”是对上文的总结，说明因为这种光的作用——我们能在生理上做好起床准备。故选C。【19题详析】根据上文“Stoppingasmartphonealarmmeansyourdaybeginswitheyeson-screen.(关掉智能手机的闹钟意味着你的一天从看屏幕开始)”可知，这里说的是用手机闹钟的情况。选项D“Thepathtoendlessscreentimeisjustafingerprintaway.(进入无休止的屏幕时间的路径只需一个指纹的距离)”进一步说明了用手机闹钟后很容易进入长时间看屏幕的状态，衔接上文。故选D。【20题详析】根据上文“Butforme,sunrisealarmclockshavebeenagame-changer.They’reaffordable,withqualitymodelsavailableforunder£30.(但对我来说，日出闹钟改变了我的生活。它们价格实惠，优质的型号售价不到30英镑)”以及下文“Afterall,somemorningpeoplearemade,notborn.(毕竟，有些喜欢早起的人是后天养成的，而不是天生的)”可知，本段是在推荐日出闹钟。选项F“Ifyouarestrugglingwithdarkmornings,it’sworthashot.(如果你在黑暗的早晨起床困难，这值得一试)”符合语境，承上启下，推荐那些起床困难的人试试日出闹钟。故选F。第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。WhenIwasaboy,Iwasgoodatmath.Ilearnedto____21____whileplayingcards.Irepeatedly____22____the
