Ⅲ.阅读理解
(2017·皖南八校联考)According to body language expert Robert Phipps, the way people sleep at night actually determines a lot about the type of personality they have.Phipps has identified four sleeping positions that affect personality.
Phipps found that worriers, those who stress the most, tend to sleep in the fetal (胎儿的) position.He found that this is the most common bedtime position, with nearly 58 percent of people sleeping on their side with knees up and head down.The more we curl up (蜷曲),
the more comfort we are seeking, according to Phipps.
The second most common position is the log.Sleeping with a straight body, with arms at each side, as if they are standing guard at Buckingham Palace, indicates stubbornness, and these people (the 28 percent who sleep this way) often wake up stiffer than when they went to sleep.
“The longer you sleep like this, the more rigid your thinking is and you can become inflexible, which means you make things harder for yourself，” according to Phipps.
Yearner (向往型) sleepers are next on the list.About 25 percent of people sleep in this style — on their side with arms stretched out in front, looking as if they are either chasing a dream or perhaps being chased themselves.Yearners are typically their own worst critics, always expecting the best results, explained Phipps.These people often wake up refreshed and eager to face the challenges of the day ahead.
Perhaps the most peculiar (奇怪的) of sleep styles is the freefaller position.This sleep style makes up 17 percent of the population.They sleep face down with arms stretched out.These people, according to Phipps, feel like they have little control over their life.Not only is this the strangest of sleep styles, but also the least comfortable, and people may wake up feeling tired and have no energy.
In conclusion, Phipps has only one more thing to add: “A good night's sleep sets you up for the following day and our sleeping positions can determine how we feel when we wake.”
1．Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A．A Good Night's Sleep Sets You Up for the Following Day
B．Your Personality Depends a lot on How You Sleep at Night
C．How You Sleep at Night Affects What You Do the Next Day
D．Which Sleeping Position Helps You Sleep Comfortably
2．Which of the following pictures is the fetal position?
3．Which sleeping position indicates that the sleeper tends to seek perfection?
A．The fetal position.
B．The log position.
C．The yearner position.
D．The freefaller position.
4．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?
CP：Central Point P：Point Sp：Subpoint C：Conclusion
答
案
Ⅰ.1.选C 句意：“史密斯先生，我明天休息一天可以吗？”“当然可以(by all means)，没有你我可以应付得了。”Forget it“算了吧”；I'm afraid not“我恐怕不行”；It depends“看情况”，均不符合语境，故排除。故答案选C，此处by all means相当于of course。
2．选C 句意：我们的身体通过锻炼得到加强，同样地，我们的思维通过学习得到开阔。similarly“同样地；类似地”，符合句意。probably“可能地”；likely“可能地”；generally“一般地”。
3．选A 从语意知“他们并没有给你任何直接的解决方法”，所以选A项solution“解决方法；解决方案”。target“目标”；measure“措施”；function“功能”。
4．选B 句意：那个侦探对于夜里戴墨镜的那个人如此好奇以至于他决定跟踪他。“so ... that ...”句型中，如果将“so＋形容词/副词”置于句首，主句主谓需部分倒装，故选B项。
5．选D 句意：为了记录动物的自然生活，我们必须悄悄地接近它，并小心仔细地观察。ignore“忽视；不理睬”；train“训练”；hunt“打猎；搜寻”；approach“接近；靠近”。根据句意可知选D。
6．选B 句意：虽然警察随处可见，但他们似乎是在随意地搜寻。at random“随意地；任意地”；at ease“无拘无束地”；at risk“有危险”；at length“详尽地；最后”。由语境可知选B。
7．选B 句意：火车因大雾晚点了。史密斯先生可能会晚到一会儿。likely, possible和probable都有“可能的”之意。但be likely to do sth.主语可以是人，也可以是物；possible和probable的主语一般不用表示人的词。
8．选C sb. be to blame“某人应对(过错、罪行)负责 ”；名词前有序数词the last等词修饰时，该名词后接不定式。
9．选D 句意：会议上，来自多个国家的政治领导人承诺携手保护全球免受恐怖活动和其他威胁的伤害。defend ...against/with ...“保护……免受……的伤害”。
10．选C 句意：奥林匹克五环旗上的五环代表五大洲的团结和来自世界各地的运动员相会在奥林匹克运动会上。represent “代表；表示”，符合句意。present “赠送；演示”； deliver “递送；传递”； resemble “像；类似”。
11．选D 句意：人们通常把健康的生活与广阔的乡村和绿色食品联系起来。be associated with“与……联系在一起”，符合句意。
