Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that its painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
注:1.第一句提出现象,后面跟着对现象的解释,这种解释一般是考点but 转折词和 might 虚拟语气都表达作者负态度最后一句话 he has proved 主题句
During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that youre hot. Thats 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 forenoon. 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! Youll 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.
注:1.peak 顶峰,高峰 2.forenoon 上午
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 youre 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 wont change your cycle, but youll get up steam and work better at your low point.
注:1.第一句话结论句,后面跟着结论的解释stay up 熬夜rise 起床本段说明针对能量周期我们怎么做
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 or concentration for your sharper hours.
注:1.Get off to a slow start 刚开始慢慢来 which引导定语从句其实是解释本段解释慢慢来的具体动作,应该速读routine 例行公事的 5.concentration 集中
