.阅读理解
(2017·福州质量检测)A pioneering headteacher is calling for all high schools to follow his lead and start classes at 11 am, allowing teenagers two hours extra in bed.
Dr. Paul Kelley, head of Monkseaton Community High School in North Tyneside, said it would mean the end of sleeping in lessons before lunch, after experiments showed teenagers could have different body clocks from adults and younger children.
Russell Foster,an Oxford professor of neuroscience (神经系统科学),tested the memory of 200 Monkseaton pupils at 9
am and 2 pm using pairs of words, and discovered a 9% improvement in the afternoon. Students correctly identified 51% of word pairs in the later session, compared with 42% in the morning. Tayler McCullough,15, one of the test subjects, said the majority of students would welcome the extra hours in bed. “I'm extremely hard to get up in the morning.One or
two people like to get to school early, but most of us would be up for going in later,I'm sure it would make a big difference to our learning ability.”
Kelley is adamant that a change of school timetable will have a meaningful effect on exam performance. He wants his school's governors to approve his plan and put the new timetable in place before the opening of Monkseaton's new school building, the most technologically advanced in the country, in September.
Kelley hopes his latest idea will be just as successful.“We have to be practical.
But this proves that, by starting later, children's learning improves, as does their health.”
Foster said,“This is preliminary (初步的) data, but what's exciting is that it matches more detailed studies carried out in Canada and the US.Teenagers get up late not because they are lazy but because they are biologically programmed to do so.”
语篇解读:经过研究发现学生在下午的记忆效果更好,因而一位高中校长呼吁高中学校更改作息时间表,认为这样更加符合青少年的生物钟。
1.How many professors are mentioned in the passage?

A.the students tested had very good memories
B.the students tested did better jobs in the afternoon

答案:B
3.What does the underlined word “adamant” in the fourth paragraph mean?
A.Angry.
B.Absorbed.
C.Adaptable.
D.Determined.
解析:词义猜测题。根据第二段中Kelley所持的观点以及第三段中的测验结果以及被测验对象所说的话可推测Kelley“坚定不移”地认为学校时间表的变化能对考试表现产生有意义的影响。前三项分别表示“生气的”“全神贯注的”“能适应的”,均不符合语境。
答案:D
4.Foster's opinion on teenagers' getting up late is that ________.
