真题研练64
Task 1：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。
(2014·四川，D)With around 100 students scheduled to be in that 9 am Monday morning lecture，it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes；it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pyjamas(睡衣)．Obviously，students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.
All human beings possess a body clock.Along with other alerting(警报)systems，this governs the sleep/ wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour.Typically，the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents，which leads to many students not feeling sleepy until much later in the evenings.This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the“night owl”schedule of sleep.
This is opposed to the “early bird”schedule，and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight.Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings.Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night.Research findings have shown that about 20 percent of people can be classified as“night owls”and only 10 percent can be classified as“early birds”—the other 70 percent are in the middle.Although this is clearly not true for all students，for the ones who are true night owls this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.
【语篇解读】 这是一篇议论文。每个人都有属于自己的生物钟。研究发现：由于某些人的睡眠周期不能与日常事务很好地协调，从而造成睡眠紊乱。有相当一部分人成了半夜不睡觉早晨起不了床的“夜猫子”。
1．What does the author stress in Paragraph 1?
A．Many students are absent from class.
B．Students are very tired on Monday mornings.
C．Students do not adjust their sleep patterns well.

B．Students don't sleep well because of alerting systems.
C．One's body clock governs the sleep/wake cycle independently.
D．Adolescents' delayed sleep/wake cycle isn't the preferred pattern.

3. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “classified”？
A．Criticised. B．Grouped.
C．Organised. D．Named.
答案 B [词义猜测题。画线单词所在句子的意思是“研究结果表明大约有20%的人可以划分到‘夜猫子’这一类，10%的人可以划分到‘早起的鸟儿’这一类。”classified意为……归为一类。]
4．What does the text mainly talk about?
A．Functions of the body clock.
B．The “night owl”phenomenon.
C．Human beings' sleep behaviour.
D．The school schedule of “early birds”．
答案 B [主旨大意题。短文开篇就描述了“夜猫子”现象，然后从生物学角度进行分析，接下来又与“早起的鸟儿”进行对比说明。因此答案为B。]

Task 4：短文改错(下面文字有十处错误，请改正)

Task 5：攻克长难句(分析句子结构，尝试翻译成汉语)
Although this is clearly not true for all students，for the ones who are true night owls this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.
分析：这是一个复合句，Although this is clearly not true for all students为让步状语从句，who are true night owls为定语从句，修饰先行词ones，which unfortunately fall before midday为另外一个定语从句，修饰先行词lectures。
译文：虽然这显然不会适用于所有的学生，但对于那些真正的夜猫子来说，这就给了他们一个很好的借口来错过那些不幸安排在午后的课程。
Task 6：经典句式背诵
1．It is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pyjamas(睡衣)．
他们中的大部分人仍旧穿着睡衣一点不令人吃惊。
2．Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings.这样的一个人在每天早晨醒来很困难。
