It seems parents have long been right. Going to bed early is key to getting enough sleep and helping adolescents feel on top of the world, a new study reported.
A 1 of sleep among youngsters may 2 depression and suicidal (自杀的)thoughts, according to the study by the Columbia University Medical Center.
"Our results are 3 with the theory that inadequate sleep is a risk factor for depression, working with other 4 and protective factors through multiple possible causal pathways to the development of this 5 disorder," said lead author James Gangwisch.
" 6 quality sleep could therefore be a preventative measure against 7 and a treatment for depression," he added in the study 8 in the Friday issue of Sleep magazine.
The study followed the nightly habits of some 15,659 college and high-school students, and 9 those who consistently went to bed 10 midnight had a 24 percent higher risk of depression than those who turned in before 10:00 pm.
Night owls(夜猫子)also ran a 20 percent 11 risk of battling suicidal thoughts, the study added.
The American Academy of Sleep Medicine 12 that adolescents should sleep at least nine hours or more a night. Those who were tucked in before 10:00 pm reported they slept 13 about eight hours and 10 minutes.
But that amount of sleep 14 significantly for those in bed after midnight.
And adolescents who slept five hours or less a night were 71 percent more 15 to suffer depression and 48 percent more 16 becoming suicidal, the study said.
"It is a common perception and societal 17 that adolescents do not need as much sleep as pre-adolescents, yet studies suggest that adolescents may 18 require more sleep," said Gangwisch.
"Studies have found that adolescents do not go to bed 19 enough to make up for earlier school start times, and transitions to earlier school start times have been shown to be 20 with significant sleep deprivation(剥夺). "

本文说明的是一项最新研究报告称,早睡不仅是得到充足睡眠的关键,而且有助于改善青少年的情绪。完成本完形填空时,我们应把生活中的实际和作者的思路逻辑联系起来。
1. D 检测名词的含义辨析及在语意上的合理搭配。语意是:这项由哥伦比亚大学医学中心开展的研究表明,青少年缺乏睡眠可能会引发抑郁以及自杀的念头。经过分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示缺乏之意的名词,也即是D项:lack,而其余的ABC三项依次分别所表达的意思:晚上,中度,限制,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑。故D项为准确答案。
2. A考查动词短语的含义准确记忆和理解辨析。由上一题的分析我们能够判断出此处应该填上表示引发之意的动词词组,而A项就表示这样的意思,BD项依次分别所表示:在于,出现,带来,这些意思都和这儿的语言逻辑和作者的要表达的意义不契合。故我们选择A项为最佳答案
3. D考查形容词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由分析,得出语境是:研究报告的主要撰写人詹姆斯??冈维西说:“有理论认为睡眠不足是导致抑郁的风险因素之一,它与其他风险和保护因素相互作用,通过多种可能的因果途径,造成这种情绪失调。我们的研究结果与这一理论是一致的。我们不难看出此处应该填上表示一致的含义的形容词,就是D项:consistent。AB两项项依次分别所表达的意思:相反的,混合的,明显不是这样的意思,而C项的意思最容易让人上当,因为它的意思是相关,不过也与上面的分析不太吻合。故我们选择D项为最佳答案。
4. A 检测名词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示风险之意的名词,也即是A项:而BCD项依次分别所表达的意思:机会,潜能,原因等等都不切合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑。故A项为准确答案。
5. A 考查名词的含义记忆与理解辨析。由第三题的分析我们能够确定此处应该表示情绪意思的名词,也就是A项。BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:身体,情感,意志,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑。故我们选择A项为最佳答案
6. C 检测形容词的含义的准确记忆与理解。联系上下文的语境我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:“所以,充足、高质量的睡眠可以成为防治抑郁症的一项措施。”研究报告在上周五的《睡眠》杂志上发表。结合语境我们发现此处需要填上表示充足意义的形容词,这四个词中只有C项有这样的之意,而BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:少的或小的,缺少,过量,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间要求的语言逻辑。故我们选择C项为最佳答案。
7. B 检测名词的含义辨析及联系上下文语言逻辑能力。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示抑郁症之意的名词,也即是B项:depression。而不是ACD三项依次分别所表达的意思:遭遇,紊乱,悲伤。故B项为准确答案。
8. B 考查动词过去分词的含义辨析及生活常识。我们都有这样的常识,研究结果一般刊登在报刊杂志或者网络。此处应该填上表示刊登之意的动词的过去分词,这是因为其逻辑主语是study,它们之间是被动关系,故B项为准确答案。而ACD项依次分别所表达的意思:报道,反映,指出等等,在语言逻辑方面的都不准确。
9. A 考查动词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。经过联系上文分析,语意是:该研究对15659名大学生和中学生的夜间作息习惯进行了追踪调查,发现那些经常在午夜后就寝的学生患抑郁症的风险比那些在晚上10点前就上床睡觉的学生高24%。我们不难看出此处应该填上表示发现之意的动词,这四个词中只有A项有这样发现之意,也就是find的过去式。而BCD项依次分别所表达的意思:调查,评价,支持等等都在语言逻辑方面不能与之准确吻合。故我们选择A项作为最佳答案。
10. D 考查介词词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确理解和应用。由上一题的分析我们不难断定此处应该填上表示在…..之后意思的介词,也即是D项,ABC项依次分别所表达的在……之前,从……,经由……,等等意思,都不符合此处上下文之间的语言逻辑,故D项为准确答案。
11. B 考查形容词的比较级的含义辨析及在上下文之间的语言逻辑方面的准确应用。经过联系上文分析,语意是:研究称,晚睡者产生自杀念头的风险也要高20%,这四个词中只有B项有较高之意。而ACD项依次分别所表达的意思是:较低的,较多的,较少的,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故B项为准确答案。
12. B 考查动词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由语境:美国睡眠药物学会建议,青少年每晚睡眠时间至少要达到9个小时,我们分析中不难看出此处应该填上表示建议之意的动词,也即是B项。而ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:呼吁,叫或打电话,计划,这些词语所表示的意思都和这儿的语言逻辑不契合,故B项为准确答案。
13. A 经过分析,语意是:晚上10点前就寝的人称他们平均每天的睡眠时间约为8小时10分钟。这四个词中只有A项有平均之意。而BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:有秩序,提前,在数量上,联系上下文的语境我们容易这不恰当,故我们选择A项为最佳答案。
14. D考查动词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。语意是:但那些在午夜后睡觉的人的睡眠时间明显少很多。这里的少就是降低的意思,也就是D项。而ABC这三项依次分别所表达的意思是:增加,消失,加强,这些词语所表示的意思都和这儿的语言逻辑不契合,故我们选择D项为最佳答案。
15. A检测副词的含义的准确记忆与理解。研究报告说,每晚睡眠时间为五小时或更少的青少年患抑郁症的几率高71%,出现自杀倾向的几率高48%。这里的几率就是我们所说的可能性,而这四个都表示可能的这样的意思。但是它们的用法是不同的,只有likely的主语可以是人或者事,其余BCD三项的主语往往都是形式主语it,故我们选择A项为最佳答案。
16. B 检测介词短语的含义的准确记忆和理解辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示有……风险的意思,这四个词中只有B项有这样的意思。ACD项依次分别所表达的意思是:看见……,在……前面,因为……,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故B项为准确答案。
17. B 检测名词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。经过分析,语意是:冈维西说:“目前存在这样一种普遍看法和社会预期,认为青少年不像儿童那样需要那么多睡眠,然而研究表明,事实上青少年可能需要更多睡眠。” 联系上下文的语境我们容易推理出此处应该填上表示预期之意的名词,这四个词中只有 B项有这样的意思。而其余ACD三项项依次分别所表达的意思是:愿望,建议,尝试,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故B项为准确答案。
18. D 检测副词的含义的准确记忆与理解。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示事实上之意的副词,也即是D项,而ABC项依次分别所表达的意思是:准确地,立即地,直接地,这些词语所表示的意思都和这儿的语言逻辑不契合,故我们选择D项为最佳答案。
19. A检测副词的含义的准确记忆与理解。经过分析,语意是:“研究发现,青少年上学的时间提早了,但却没有提早就寝来对此加以补偿,而且上学时间提早与严重的睡眠剥夺有关。” 联系上下文的语境我们容易推理出此处应该填上表示早早地之意的副词,也即是A项,而其余BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:最近,时间上快,动作快,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故A项为准确答案。
20. B 考查动词过去分词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示联系之意的动词过去分词,也即是B项,而ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:分离,均分,依赖,这些词语所表示的意思都和这儿的语言逻辑不吻合,故我们选择A项为最佳答案。

Our boat floated on between walls of forest. It was too thick for us to get a view of the land we were passing through, though we knew from the map that our river must be passing through chains of hills from time to time. Nowhere did we find a place where we could have landed: although the jungle did not actually spread right down into the river, banks of soft mud prevented us from going ashore. In any case, what would we have gained by landing? The country was full of snakes and other dangerous creatures and the jungle was so thick that one would be able to advance slowly, cutting one's way with knives the whole way. So we stayed in the boat, hoping that when we reached the sea, a friendly fisherman would pick us up and take us to civilization.
As for water, there was a choice. We could drink the muddy river water, or die of thirst. We drank the water. Men who have just escaped from what appeared to be certain death lost all worries about such small things as diseases caused by dirty water. In fact, none of us suffered from any illness as a result.
One day we passed another village, but fortunately nobody saw us. We did not wish to risk being taken prisoners a second time: we might not be so lucky as to escape in a stolen boat again.
1.What they could see on the boat was only___ .
A. high walls B. chains of hills C. heavy woods D. vast land
2.They couldn't land because_______ .
A. the mud on the shore was too soft B. they could not find anyone
C. they could not find the mark on the map D. the forest was too thick to go through
3.From the passage, we can learn that_____ .
A. they were in an uninhabited area B. they were on a journey home happily
C. the country was a civilized society D. the country was a tropical jungle coutry

A. I he Problem of Landing B. Escape in the Jungle

18【题文】If you travel to a new exhibition at the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers, you will have chances to see some meat-eating plants. Take bladderworts, a kind of such plant, for example. They appear so small and grow in a quiet pond. "But these are the fastest known killers of the plant kingdom, able to capture a small insect in 1/50 of a second using a trap door!"
Once the trap door closes on the victim, the enzymes (酶)similar to those in the human stomach slowly digest the insert. When dinner is over, the plant opens the trap door and is ready to trap again.
Meat-eating plants grow mostly in wet areas with soil that doesn't offer much food nutrition. In such conditions, these amazing plants have developed insect traps to get their nutritional needs over thousands of years. North America has more such plants than any other continents.
Generally speaking, the traps may have attractive appearance to fool the eye, like pitcher plants, which get their name because they look like beautiful pitchers full of nectar (花蜜).
Hair-like growths along the pitcher walls ensure that nothing can escape, and the digestive enzymes can get to work. A tiny insect can be digested in a few hours, but a fly takes a couple of days.
Some of these pitchers are large enough to hold 7.5 liters. Meat-eating plants only eat people in science fiction movies, but sometimes a bird or other small animals will discover that a pitcher plant isn't a good place to get a drink.
9.From Paragraph 1,we learn that bladderworts can__ .
A. kill an insect in a second B. digest a fly in a few hours
C. be found floating on a quiet lake D. capture an insect in 1/50 of a second
10.If the trap door of a meat-eating plant is closed, the plant is
A. fooling insects into taking a sip B. producing nectar
C. tempting insects to come close D. enjoying a dinner
11.Meat-eating plants can grow in wet and poor soil because they .
A. can get nutrition from animals B. don't need much food nutrition
C. can make the most of such conditions D. have developed digestive enzymes
12.What can be captured by meat-eating plants for food?
A. A child. B. A dog. C. A little bird. D. A little fish.

20【题文】BUKHANNON, West Virginia~~Two rescue teams slowly moved along a two—mile path on Monday night to the site of a coal mine explosion that trapped 13 miners, who had not been heard from since the early morning accident.
Meanwhile, at a nearby church, more than 250 family members and friends gathered, waiting for updates on the rescuers' progress.
The miners were trapped at about .6:30 and many families weren't informed of the accident until about 10 a.m.~~more than three hours after it happened. "It's very upsetting, but you've got to be patient, I guess," said John Helms, whose brother, Terry, was trapped in the mine.
The trapped miners were about 260 fee underground and about 10,000 feet from the Sago Mine's entrance, said Roger Nicholson, a lawyer from International Coal Group.

He said the crew was very experienced, with some members having worked underground for 30 to 35 years. The miners were equipped with al>out one hour of breathable oxygen each. The company has not released the names of the miners.
The teams test the air about every 500 feet, and have to disconnect the power to the phones they use to communicate with the surface before doing that. "We don't want to be electrifying anything if it's in an atmospfiere with hurnahle gases," Kips said.
The cause of the explosion was not immediately known. High levels of carbon monoxide ( 一氧化物) were discovered shortly after the explosion, which delayed rescue efforts, but those levels have weakened since then, authorities said.
25.According to the passage, we ran infer that_ .
I. communication with the trapped miners was cut off
J. the rescue started as soon as the accident happened
K. the two rescue teams entered the mine at the same time

You wake up in the morning, the day is beautiful and the plans for the day are what you have been looking forward to for a long time. Then the telephone rings, you say hello, and the drama starts. The person on tbe other end has a depressing tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to. Are you still in a wonderful mood? Impossible!
Communieating with negative people can wash out your happiness. It may not change what you think, but communicating long enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time.
Life brings ups and downs, but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer. They only feel glad when they make others feel bad. No wonder they can hardly win others' pity or respect.
When you communicate with positive people, your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted. When the knife of a negative person is put in you, you have the heavy feeling that, all in all, brings you down.
Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people. This could be a co-worker, or a relative. In this case, say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to the negative person, but this is to lower you to that same negative level and they won't feel ashamed of themselves about that.
Negativity often affects happiness without even being realized. The negative words of others at the start of the day can be attached to you throughout the rest of your day, which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness. Life is too short to feel negative. Stay positive and avoid negativity as much as possible.
