III.阅读理解(共 15 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 30 分)
阅读下面短文,并从各题所给的四个选项 A、B、C、D 中选出最佳选项。
A
American society is not nap (午睡)friendly . In fact , says David Dings , sleep specialist at
the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine , “There’s even a pronibition (禁止) against
admitting we need sleep”. Nobody wants to be caught napping or found asleep at work . To quote
a proverb : “Some sleep five hours , nature requires seven , laziness nine and wickedness(淘气的)
eleven.”
The way not to fall asleep at work is to take naps when you need them . “We have to totally
change our attitude toward napping ,” says Dr. William Dement of Stanford University , the
godfather of sleep research .
Last year a national clmmission led by Dement identified(发现) an “American sleep debt”
which one member said was as important as the national debt . The clmmission was concerned
about the dangers of sleepiness : people causing industrial accidents or falling asleep while
driving . This may be why we have a new sleep policy in the White House . According to recent
reports , President Clinton is trying to take a half---hour snooze (瞌睡) every afternoon .
About 60 percent of American adults nap whev given the opportunity . We seem to have “a
mid afternoon quiet phase ,” also called “a secondary sleep gate .” Sleeping 15 minutes to two .
hours I the early afternoon can reduce stress and make us refreshed . Clearly , we were born to
nap .
We superstars of Snooze don’t nap to replace lost shut --- eye or to prepare for a night shift .
Rather , we “snack” on sleep ,whenever , wherever and at whatever time we feel like it . I myself
have napped in buses , cars , planes and on boats ; on floors and beds ;and in libraries , offices
and museums .
( )31.It is commonly accepted in American society that too much sleep is .
A. unreasonable B. criminal C. harmful D. costly
( )32.The research done by the Dement Commission shows that Americans .
A.don’t like to take naps B. are terribly worried about their national debt
C. think that sleeping less is good for them
D. have caused many industrial and traffic accidents
( )33.The purpose of this article is to .
A. warn us of the wickedness of napping B.explain the danger of sleepiness
B. discuss the side effects of napping D. convince the reader of the necessity of
napping
( )34.The “American sleep debt”(Line 1 , Para .3) is the result of .
A. the traditional misconception the Americans have about sleep
B. the new sleep policy of the Clinton Administration
C. the rapid development of American industry
D. the Americans’worry about the danger of sleepiness
( )35.The second sentence of the last paragraph tells us that it is .
A. preferable to have a sound sleep before a night shift
B. good practice to eat something light before we go to bed
C. essential (基本的) to make up for lost sleep
D. natural to take a nap whenever we feel the need for it
B
An increase in the number of suicides in South Korea has led policeman Yoo Byoung ---- jong
to a new job . He patrols ( 巡 逻 ) Seoul’s bridges to stop desperate people from throwing
themselves into the river .
According to South Korea’s health ministry , suicide rates have doubled in a decade and are
now the leading cause of death for people in their and 30s .The country has the fourth --- highest
suicide rate among the 30 industrialized countries in the Organization for Economic Cooperation
and Development (OECD) . It recorded 22.8 suicide deaths for every 100,000 people in . That’s
lower than Hungary , Finland and close neighbor Japan . But the number is growing by about 1
percent each year , faster than all other OECD nations .
In a move to cut suicides by a fifth by , the health ministry is running a television ad
campaign . It opens with a lonely man walkin on a bridge . Avoiceover says: “Think five minutes
more before you give it all way . . . Don’t forget you have a loving family .”
Other ministry plans include setting up more hotlines and training more suicide counselors
(顾问) . Authorities(当局) also limiting websites that provide suicide methods and sometimes
even sell toxic(有毒的)chemicals .
Distressed individuals range from students worried about poor grades to people in debt as
wellas disgraced politicians .
Experts say the rising toll (死亡人数) in some way can be blamed on media coverage of
recenthigh ----profile suicides . These include top business leaders and celebrities (名人) who
apparently lead a number of people to copy their actions .
“We saved 50 lives this year when people turned to bridges as a place to die after news
reports of such deaths by ‘ big shots’”said the 38--- year --- old Yoo , in December .
Last July , the government and civil associations urged media to avoid reporting specific
methods and locations of suicides . But it is difficult to clearly give reasons for the suicide
increase .

With the development of the society and the improvement of conditions of people’s lives ,
more and more people have had their own cars , which can save a lot of time and bring people a
lot of convenience . However , the increase in the number of the private cars have also caused
some problems .
First , it makes traffic heavier and heavier . There are more and more traffic jams than before ,
esp . during the rush hours . Second , as more and more people are driving cars , many more
parking lots have to be built . In addition , there are more traffic accidents , in which a lot of
people have lost their lives . What’s more , it has caused pollution and energy problems .Air
pollution and noise pollution increase with more and more people driving cars . More and more
cars also burn more and more fuel .
Therefore I think the government should take some measures to limit the number of the
private cars . In addition , it should do something about the conditions of buses and encourage
people to take buses or ride bicycles .
