    More Than 8 Hours Sleep Too Much of a Good Thing
    1 Although the dangers of too little sleep are widely known,new research suggests that people who sleep too much may also suffer the consequences.
    2 Investigators at the University of California in San Diego found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight appear to have more trouble falling and staying asleep,as well as a number of other sleep problems,than people who sleep 8 hours a night. People who slept only 7 hours each night also said they had more trouble falling asleep and feeling refreshed after a night's sleep than 8-hour sleepers.
    3 These findings,which DL Daniel Kripke reported in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine,demonstrate that people who want to get a good night's rest may not need to set aside, more than 8 hours a night.He added that“it might be a good idea”for people who sleep more than 8 hours each night to consider reducing the amount of time they spend in bed,but cautioned that more research is needed to confirm this.
    4 Previous studies have shown the potential dangers of chronic shortages of sleep一for instance,one report demonstrated that people who habitually sleep less than 7 hours each night have a higher risk of dying within a fixed period than people who sleep more.
    5 For the current report,Kripke reviewed the responses of 1,004 adults to sleep questionaires,in which participants indicated how much they slept during the week and whether they experienced any sleep problems.Sleep problems included waking in the middle of the night,arising early in the morning and being unable to fall back to sleep,and having fatigue interfere with day-to-day functioning.
    6 Kridke found that people who slept between 9 and 10 hours each night were more like-ly to report experiencing each sleep problem than people who slept 8 hours.In an interview, Kripke noted that long sleepers may struggle to get rest at night simply because they spend too much time in bed. As evidence,he added that one way to help insomnia is to spend less time in bed.“It stands to reason that if a person spends too long a time in bed,then they'll spend a higher percentage of time awake.”he said.

    One of the sleep problems is waking in the middle of the night,unable to______.
    A: fall asleep again
    B: become more energetic the following day
    C: sleep less than 7 hours
    D: confirm those serious consequences
    E: suffer sleep problems
    F: sleen more than 8 houlrs

    答案:A
    解析:
    该段中只包含两个句子,而每个句子中提到了have trouble falling asleep“很难入睡”,这表明该段主题应与睡眠问题相关。选项E和选项F都直接提到了sleep problems “睡眠问题”,因此推测答案可能来自这两个选项。选项E意为“睡眠时间长的人和睡眠时间短的人遇到的睡眠问题”,选项F意为“睡眠问题的分类”。结合段落内容来看,段落第一句主要提到people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight“每晚睡9一10个小时的人即睡眠时间长的人”的情况,段落第二句主要提到people who slept only 7 hours each night“每晚只睡 7个小时的人即睡眠时间短的人”呼应,因此E是答案。
    整个段落只包含一个句子,该句主要以前的研究揭示了慢性睡眠不足的潜在危险。这与B项“习惯性睡眠不足的危险”呼应一致。所以答案为B。
    A和F容易相互成为干扰项,这对于该段主题的判断具有一定的迷惑性,但由于段落中提到的“睡眠问题”是属于问卷上要回答的内容,是和Kripke的直接研究有关,所以判断“Kripke的研究”是段落的主题,因此A是答案。
    剩下的3个选项中,选项F作为第1小题的干扰项成为本小题答案的可能性很小,选项C意为“对Kripke报告的批评”,整个段落主要提到了Kripke的研究发现和他的看法: Kridke found ... (Kridke发现);Kripke noted ... (Kripke指出……); he added...(他补充说……), 根本没有涉及到对Kripke的批评,因此C是干扰项,答案应该为D。该段首先分析了睡眠时间长的人出现睡眠问题的原因,然后指出克服失眠(睡眠问题的具体表现)的一种方法。
    利用题干中的名词短语。good night's rest和名词people作为定位线索,在文章中找到相关句:These findings, which DL Daniel Kripke reported in the journal Psycho-somatic Medicine,demonstrate that people who want to get a good night's rest may not need to set aside more than 8 hours a night.依据该句可直接判断F项“睡眠超过8小时”是答案。
    利用题干中的名词短语long sleepers作为定位线索,同时关注题干中的其他用词,这样在文章中找到相关句:Investigators at the University of California in San Diego found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight(与long sleepers呼应)appear to have more trouble falling and staying asleep,as well as a number of other sleep problems, than people who sleep 8 hours a night.依据该句可直接判断E项“出现睡眠问题”是答案。
    利用题干中的名词短语one of the sleep problems, the middle of the night 作为定位线索,在文章中找到相关句:Sleep problems included waking in the middle of the night,arising early in the morning and being unable to fall back to sleep,and having fatigue interfere with day-to-day functioning. A项fall asleep again“再次入睡”是fall back to sleep的 近义结构,所以答案为A。
    利用题干中的名词结构one survey, higher risk of dying作为定位线索,在 文章中找到相关句:one report(与 survey呼应)demonstrated that people who habitually sleep less than 7 hours each night have a higher risk of dying within a fixed period than peo-ple who sleep more.依据该句可直接判断C项“睡眠不足7个小时”是答案。

    Shift Work Link to Increased Risk of Heart Problems

    Shift workers are slightly more at risk of having a heart attack or stroke than day workers,research suggests.
    An analysis of studies involving more than 2 million workers in the British Medical Journal said shift
    work can disrupt the body clock and have a negative effect on lifestyle.It has previously been linked to an
    increased risk of high blood pressure and diabetes.
    Limiting night shifts would help workers cope,experts said.
    The team of researchers from Canada and Norway analyzed 34 studies.In total,there were 17,359
    coronary events of some kind,including cardiac arrests,6,598 heart attacks and 1,854 strokes caused by
    lack of blood to the brain.These events were more common in shift workers than in other people.
    The BMJ study calculated that shift work was linked to a 23%increased risk of heart attack,24%
    increased risk of coronary event and 5%increased risk of stroke.But they also said shift work was not linked
    to increased mortality rates from heart problems and that the relative risks associated with heart problems
    were"modest".
    Dan Hackam,associate professor at Western University,London, Ontario in Canada,said shift workers
    were more prone to sleeping and eating badly."Night shift workers are up all the time and they don't have
    a defined rest period.They are in a state of perpetual nervous system activation which is bad for things like
    obesity and cholesterol,"he said.
    The authors say that screening programs could help identify and treat risk factors for shift workers,such
    as high blood pressure and cholesterol levels.They add that shift workers could also be educated about what
    symptoms to look out for,which might indicate early heart problems.
    Jane White,research and information services manager at the Institution of Occupational Safety and
    Health,said there were complex issues surrounding shift work."It can result in disturbed appetite and
    digestion,reliance on sedatives and/or stimulants,as well as social and domestic problems."These can
    affect performance,increase the likelihood of errors and accidents at work,and even have a negative effect
    on health.She said the effects of shift work needed to be well managed.
    "Avoiding permanent night shifts,limiting shifts to a maximum of 12 hours and ensuring workers have a
    minimum of two full nights'sleep between day and night shifts are simple,practical solutions that can help
    people to cope with shift work."

    From Paragraph Six it can be inferred that_________.
    A:shift workers have no good food to eat
    B:shift workers don't know how to define rest period
    C:a worker of high cholesterol level is likely to suffer more from shift work
    D:shift workers have no place to sleep comfortably

    答案:C
    解析:
    由文章第一段的内容可知,进行轮班工作的人心脏病发作和中风的几率比仅在白天工作的人稍微高点,并非很多,故A为正确答案。
    prevent的意思为“防止,阻止······的发生”;control的意思为“控制”;cut off的意思为 “中断,终止”;throw into disorder的意思为“扰乱······,使不正常”。disrupt的意思为“扰乱”, 和throw into disorder的意思接近。故D为正确答案。
    由文章第八段的第二句“It can result in disturbed appetite and digestion, reliance on sedatives and/or stimulants, as well as social and domestic problems.”可知,A、B、C三项都是进行 轮班工作的坏处,故选D。
    由第六段的最后一句中“They are in a state of perpetual nervous system activation which is bad for things like obesity and cholesterol”可知,夜班工作对肥胖和胆固醇疾病不利,也就是说, 有此两种疾病的人不适合进行轮班工作。其余各项都没能正确理解原文的意思。
    通读文章可知,本篇文章主要是针对轮班工作者的健康问题进行了专门的探讨,这篇 文章最可能出现在健康杂志上,故B为正确答案。第二篇 本篇文章主要讲述了大量发展中国家的艾滋病患者由于没有得治疗而死去的事情。文章指 出应加强对艾滋病患者的救治,并提出了三种具体的救治办法。

    F: sleen more than 8 houlrs

    答案:E
    解析:
    该段中只包含两个句子,而每个句子中提到了have trouble falling asleep“很难入睡”,这表明该段主题应与睡眠问题相关。选项E和选项F都直接提到了sleep problems “睡眠问题”,因此推测答案可能来自这两个选项。选项E意为“睡眠时间长的人和睡眠时间短的人遇到的睡眠问题”,选项F意为“睡眠问题的分类”。结合段落内容来看,段落第一句主要提到people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight“每晚睡9一10个小时的人即睡眠时间长的人”的情况,段落第二句主要提到people who slept only 7 hours each night“每晚只睡 7个小时的人即睡眠时间短的人”呼应,因此E是答案。
    整个段落只包含一个句子,该句主要以前的研究揭示了慢性睡眠不足的潜在危险。这与B项“习惯性睡眠不足的危险”呼应一致。所以答案为B。
    A和F容易相互成为干扰项,这对于该段主题的判断具有一定的迷惑性,但由于段落中提到的“睡眠问题”是属于问卷上要回答的内容,是和Kripke的直接研究有关,所以判断“Kripke的研究”是段落的主题,因此A是答案。
    剩下的3个选项中,选项F作为第1小题的干扰项成为本小题答案的可能性很小,选项C意为“对Kripke报告的批评”,整个段落主要提到了Kripke的研究发现和他的看法: Kridke found ... (Kridke发现);Kripke noted ... (Kripke指出……); he added...(他补充说……), 根本没有涉及到对Kripke的批评,因此C是干扰项,答案应该为D。该段首先分析了睡眠时间长的人出现睡眠问题的原因,然后指出克服失眠(睡眠问题的具体表现)的一种方法。
    利用题干中的名词短语。good night's rest和名词people作为定位线索,在文章中找到相关句:These findings, which DL Daniel Kripke reported in the journal Psycho-somatic Medicine,demonstrate that people who want to get a good night's rest may not need to set aside more than 8 hours a night.依据该句可直接判断F项“睡眠超过8小时”是答案。
    利用题干中的名词短语long sleepers作为定位线索,同时关注题干中的其他用词,这样在文章中找到相关句:Investigators at the University of California in San Diego found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight(与long sleepers呼应)appear to have more trouble falling and staying asleep,as well as a number of other sleep problems, than people who sleep 8 hours a night.依据该句可直接判断E项“出现睡眠问题”是答案。
    利用题干中的名词短语one of the sleep problems, the middle of the night 作为定位线索,在文章中找到相关句:Sleep problems included waking in the middle of the night,arising early in the morning and being unable to fall back to sleep,and having fatigue interfere with day-to-day functioning. A项fall asleep again“再次入睡”是fall back to sleep的 近义结构,所以答案为A。
    利用题干中的名词结构one survey, higher risk of dying作为定位线索,在 文章中找到相关句:one report(与 survey呼应)demonstrated that people who habitually sleep less than 7 hours each night have a higher risk of dying within a fixed period than peo-ple who sleep more.依据该句可直接判断C项“睡眠不足7个小时”是答案。

    More Than 8 Hours Sleep Too Much of a Good Thing
    1 Although the dangers of too little sleep are widely known,new research suggests that people who sleep too much may also suffer the consequences.
    2 Investigators at the University of California in San Diego found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight appear to have more trouble falling and staying asleep,as well as a number of other sleep problems,than people who sleep 8 hours a night. People who slept only 7 hours each night also said they had more trouble falling asleep and feeling refreshed after a night's sleep than 8-hour sleepers.
    3 These findings,which DL Daniel Kripke reported in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine,demonstrate that people who want to get a good night's rest may not need to set aside, more than 8 hours a night.He added that“it might be a good idea”for people who sleep more than 8 hours each night to consider reducing the amount of time they spend in bed,but cautioned that more research is needed to confirm this.
    4 Previous studies have shown the potential dangers of chronic shortages of sleep一for instance,one report demonstrated that people who habitually sleep less than 7 hours each night have a higher risk of dying within a fixed period than people who sleep more.
    5 For the current report,Kripke reviewed the responses of 1,004 adults to sleep questionaires,in which participants indicated how much they slept during the week and whether they experienced any sleep problems.Sleep problems included waking in the middle of the night,arising early in the morning and being unable to fall back to sleep,and having fatigue interfere with day-to-day functioning.
    6 Kridke found that people who slept between 9 and 10 hours each night were more like-ly to report experiencing each sleep problem than people who slept 8 hours.In an interview, Kripke noted that long sleepers may struggle to get rest at night simply because they spend too much time in bed. As evidence,he added that one way to help insomnia is to spend less time in bed.“It stands to reason that if a person spends too long a time in bed,then they'll spend a higher percentage of time awake.”he said.

    To get a good night's rest,people may not need to______.
    A: fall asleep again
    B: become more energetic the following day
    C: sleep less than 7 hours
    D: confirm those serious consequences
    E: suffer sleep problems
    F: sleen more than 8 houlrs
