第2题：

A

I know what you’re thinking : pizza （比萨饼）? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the a. m. if you want to

I know lots of women who skip breakfast （不吃早餐） , and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it . Some say they don’t have time. others think they’re “saving” calories （卡路里）, still others just don’t like breakfast food .

But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking , R , D , who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece.

Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southem California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.

So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers-it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow,” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it…you may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects.

41. The word “leftovers” in Paragraph 1 probably means__________.

A. food remaining after a meal B. things left undone

C. meals made of vegetables D. pizza topped with fruit

正确答案：A

第6题：

Part B

［A］ You may have to impress the company HR representatives as well.

HR reps are typically trained to ask very specific and personal questions,

like what salary you expect and what you’ve made in the past.

They might ask you about your impressions of the company and the people who

interviewed you. They might also ask if you have other offers. If so,

chances are good that they are willing to compete for you.

But if you say that you have other offers,

be prepared to back it up with the who, what and when,

because they might challenge you.

The HR reps are also the people who will conduct or arrange reference and background checks.

They might have the final say.

［B］ Besides management, you might also interview with one or more of your future coworkers.

Regardless of the questions they ask, what they most really want to know is how well you’

ll fit into the team, if you’ll cause them more work instead of less,

and if they should feel threatened by you. When answering,

be eager enough to show that you are a good team player and will pull your load,

but not so eager as to appear to be a back- stabbing ladder climber!

［C］ Always research a company before you interview, and remember that attire,

body language and manners count, big time. Try to avoid common mistakes.

You may think that this is common sense, but crazy stuff really happens!

［D］ Job interviewing is one of the most popular career topics on the Web.

But no career advisor can tell you exactly what to say during a job interview.

Interviews are just too upclose and personal for that.

About the best that career advisors can do,

is to give you some tips about the typical questions to expect,

so you can practice answering them ahead of time. But,

while there are many canned interview questions, there are few canned answers.

The rest is up to you.

［E］ Be prepared to attend a second interview at the same company,

and maybe even a third or fourth. If you’re called back for more interviews,

it means that they’re interested in you. But, it doesn’t mean you’re a shoo- in. Most likely, they are narrowing the competition, so keep up the good work!

［F］ To put you somewhat at ease, many interviewers really don’t know how to interview effectively.

Frontline interviewers are typically managers and supervisors

who have never been or are barely trained in interviewing techniques.

They’re a little nervous too, just like you. Some don’t even prepare in advance.

This makes it easier for you to take control of the interview,

if you have prepared. But in controlling an interview, it’s not a good idea to try to dominate.

Instead, try to steer it toward landing the job.

［G］ After interviewing, immediately send a thank you letter to each of your interviewers.

It’s professional and expected, and might even be the deciding factor in your favor.

［H］ Remember, it’s a two- way street. It’s the employer’s chance to judge you,

but it’s also very much your chance to judge the employer. In fact,

if you handle yourself well and ask the right questions,

you’ll put the interviewer in the position of selling the company to you.

If this happens, you’re probably doing well.

Energy Cycle

Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful?This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation.He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you are"hot".That's true.The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at this peak.For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so,but it leads to such familiar words as:"Get up, John!You'll be late for work again!"The possible explanation to the trouble is he is at his tempera-ture-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can't change your energy cycle,but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help,Dr. Kleitman believes.Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway.Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to.If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day,rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle,but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start,which saves your energy.Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.Whenever possible,do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy for your sharper hours.

Energy cycle may be inherited from your parents.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned

答案：C

解析：

虽然文章第一段提到早上起不来床会被称为懒，但是本文强调的是Kleitman博士所提出的新观点，就是这可能是由于每个人不同的能量周期决定的。因此不是所有早上起不来的人都是懒，所以这句话是错误的。
根据文章第二段和第三段我们知道能量峰值在晚上的人早上精神会不好，能量峰值在早上的人则相反，因此本句是正确的。
文章第二段最后一句讲到如果夫妻双方都能意识到能量周期的不同，那么“much family quarrelling ends”，即少了许多争吵，也就是说很多争吵是因为没有意识到能量周期的问题，因此本句表述是错误的。
第二段三句讲“The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at this peak"，即精力最充沛的时候体温最高，但这并不意味着精力和体温是一码事，例如人生病的时候会发烧但精神会很差。本句的表述是错误的。
文章第二段告诉我们“No one has discovered why this is so”，即没人知道为什么每个人的能量周期不同，因此我们也不知道是不是有遗传因素，所以选择选项C。
第三段第一句告诉我们虽然可以让自己的生活适应能量周期，但是“you can't change your energy cycle"，因此本句表述是错误的，应当选择选项B。
文章第三段最后两句建议早上处于低潮的人们要比平时起得早，这样才能工作得更好。因此本句的陈述是正确的。

Energy Cycle
Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful?This might be called laziness,but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you're“hot”.That's true .The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak .For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening.No one has discovered why this is so,but it leads to such familiar monologues as:“Get up,John!You'll be late for work again!”The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can't change your energy cycle,but you can learn to make your life fit to it better. Habit can help,Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but you must stay up late anyway .Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day,rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle,but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy .Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the trouble of searching for clean clothes by laying them out the night before .Whenever possible,do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.

If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning,he should_______.
A: change his energy cycle
B: overcome his laziness
C:get up earlier than usual
D:go to bed earlier

答案：C

解析：

根据第一段可以看出，早晨起不来与个人每天的能量周期有关。根据文章第二段中约翰自言自语以及紧接着的解释“Get up , John ! You'll be late for work again ! ” The explanation… temperature-and-energy peak in the evening．可推断出答案。

答案的线索在第二段最后一句话“Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.”也就是说，如果丈夫和妻子能明白不同的能量周期是怎么回事，家里每个人有什么样的能量周期，很多家庭争吵就不会发生。所以正确答案是A。

“如果一个人想在早上能量低潮时更有效地工作，那么他该怎么办？”根据这两句话“If your energy is low in the morning but you have…but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.”可以断定正确答案应该是C。

“建议你早上起床时打个呵欠，伸伸懒腰，因为它们会＿______”首先应理解文章最后一段的第一句话“get off to a slow start which saves your energy”，还要理解该句后面的三句话，它们是保存能量的具体方法。“Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch”当然是为了保存能量。所以正确答案是A。

选项B说Dr. Kleitman解释了为什么人们在一天里的不同时刻会有不同的能量高峰。而文章第二段指出没有人发现为什么会有不同的能量周期“For some people the peak comes during morning…No one has discovered why this is so.”两者不符，所以正确答案是B。

文章第二段告诉我们“No one has discovered why this is so”，即没人知道为什么每个人的能量周期不同，因此我们也不知道是不是有遗传因素，所以选择选项C。
第三段第一句告诉我们虽然可以让自己的生活适应能量周期，但是“you can't change your energy cycle"，因此本句表述是错误的，应当选择选项B。
文章第三段最后两句建议早上处于低潮的人们要比平时起得早，这样才能工作得更好。因此本句的陈述是正确的。

Energy Cycle
Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful?This might be called laziness,but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you're“hot”.That's true .The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak .For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening.No one has discovered why this is so,but it leads to such familiar monologues as:“Get up,John!You'll be late for work again!”The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can't change your energy cycle,but you can learn to make your life fit to it better. Habit can help,Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but you must stay up late anyway .Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day,rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle,but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy .Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the trouble of searching for clean clothes by laying them out the night before .Whenever possible,do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.

Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
A: Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one's energy.
B: Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.
C: Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.
D: Children have energy cycles,too.

答案：B

解析：

根据第一段可以看出，早晨起不来与个人每天的能量周期有关。根据文章第二段中约翰自言自语以及紧接着的解释“Get up , John ! You'll be late for work again ! ” The explanation… temperature-and-energy peak in the evening．可推断出答案。

答案的线索在第二段最后一句话“Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.”也就是说，如果丈夫和妻子能明白不同的能量周期是怎么回事，家里每个人有什么样的能量周期，很多家庭争吵就不会发生。所以正确答案是A。

“如果一个人想在早上能量低潮时更有效地工作，那么他该怎么办？”根据这两句话“If your energy is low in the morning but you have…but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.”可以断定正确答案应该是C。

“建议你早上起床时打个呵欠，伸伸懒腰，因为它们会＿______”首先应理解文章最后一段的第一句话“get off to a slow start which saves your energy”，还要理解该句后面的三句话，它们是保存能量的具体方法。“Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch”当然是为了保存能量。所以正确答案是A。

选项B说Dr. Kleitman解释了为什么人们在一天里的不同时刻会有不同的能量高峰。而文章第二段指出没有人发现为什么会有不同的能量周期“For some people the peak comes during morning…No one has discovered why this is so.”两者不符，所以正确答案是B。

问答题

Practice 1　　Are you a real grump (脾气坏的人) in the mornings? Do you wake up every day feeling tired, angry and upset, and all too ready to flit the snooze (瞌睡) button? If so, then a new alarm clock could be just for you.　　The clock, called SleepSmart, measures your sleep cycle, and waits for you to be in your lightest phase of sleep before waking you up, Its makers say that should ensure you wake up feeling refreshed (恢复精力) every morning.　　As you sleep you pass through a sequence of sleep states—light sleep, deep sleep and REM sleep (快速眼动睡眼)—that repeats approximately every 90 minutes. The points in that cycle at which you wake can affect how you feel later, and may even have a greater impact than how long or little you have slept. Being wakened during a light phase means you are more likely to wake up cheerful and full of life and interest.　　SleepSmart records the distinct pattern of brain waves produced during each phase of sleep, via a headband equipped with electrodes (电极) and a microprocessor. This measures electric activity of the wearer’s brain, and communicates wirelessly with a clock unit near the bed. You program the clock with the latest time at which you want to be wakened, and it then at the proper time wakes you during the last light sleep phase before that.　　The concept was invented by a group of students at Brown University in Rhode Island after a friend complained of waking up tired and performing poorly on a test. “As sleep-deprived (剥夺) people ourselves, we started thinking of what to do about it,” says Eric Shashoua, a recent college graduate and now chief executive officer of Axon Sleep Research Laboratories, a company created by the students to develop their idea. They have almost finished a prototype and plan to market the product by next year.

正确答案：
【参考译文】
你在早上会是一个坏脾气的人吗?你每天醒来时都会疲惫、生气、太容易打瞌睡吗?如果这样,你应该为自己设置一个新的闹钟
这个闹钟就叫做SleepSmart,它能测量你的睡眠周期,等到你睡得最浅的时候再把你叫醒。它的发明者说这能保证你每天早上醒来的时候都能恢复精力。
当你在睡觉时,会经过一系列睡眠状态——浅睡,熟睡和快速眼动睡眠—每90分钟循环一次。你在这个周期中醒来的时间点会影响之后的感受,并可能比睡觉时间的长短对你的影响更大。在浅睡阶段醒来意味着你更容易感到精神振奋,充满活力。
SleepSmart通过一个配备电机和微处理器的头带记录每个睡眠阶段产生的不用模式的脑电波。头带能测量穿戴者脑部的电流活动并无线连接床边的闹钟。你可以把闹钟设置到你想要被叫醒的最晚时间,之后它就会在离这个时间最近的一个浅睡阶段让你醒来。
在一位朋友抱怨睡醒之后感到疲惫并在考试中状态不佳后,罗德岛布朗大学的一群学生想出了这个主意。“我们本身也是睡眠不足的人,于是就开始思考怎么解决这个问题” Eric Shashoua说道。他刚从学校毕业不久,现在是Axon睡眠研究实验室的CEO,这家由学生创立的公司让他们尽情发挥自己的想法。他们现在差不多开发出了原型并计划明年将产品打入市场。
