• 2．Take a look inside a high school classroom.You will most likely find a teacher at the front of the class and students sitting at their desks.Yet，look closer，and you might notice a familiar scene：many of these students are not paying attention.Instead，they are dozing off （打盹） or even completely asleep.
     Today，the majority of high school students are not getting enough sleep.This lack of sleep is a serious problem，especially as students are doing more than ever with their time.They come to school early，spend hours listening to teachers and taking tests，then run off to practices and meetings，and come home to face even more work.And the homework load these days is not light；teachers give hours worth of homework each night.
     Most kids need at least nine hours of sleep per night in order to function properly.Yet the period of this nine hours shifts as a child gets older.After puberty（青春期），the body's internal clock changes so that it is difficult for teens to fall asleep before 11 p.m.So even if a student falls asleep at eleven，they would need to sleep until at least 8 a.m.jye.ai get a full night's sleep.Considering the time at which most high schools in this country begin，those nine hours are clearly being shortened.Few high schools start after 8 a.m.
     However，there are schools that have paid attention to this research and pushed backward the start of their school day.In schools where the start time is after 8：30 in the morning，the teachers believe that there has been a real change in their students.They note that the students miss class less，pay more attention in class，perform better in class，and report lower levels of depression （沮丧）.The researchers of these studies say that the results are quite important and that more schools should consider pushing backward their start time of their school day.
  
  （1）Which of the following would the author agree with？

  
  A．High school students must go to bed before 10 p.m.
  B．High schools should begin their school day at a later time.
  C．Most schools should push forward the start of their school day.
  D．Kids should shorten their sleep time gradually as they grow older.
  （2）The second paragraph mainly discusses

  .
  A．why high school students should get more sleep
  B．what's life like for high school students at present
  C．why high school students feel sleepy in the classroom
  D．how to lighten high school students' homework load
  （3）The underlined word "shifts" probably means "

  ".
  A．arrives
  B．reduces
  C．increases
  D．changes
  （4）How do the teachers feel about the results from pushing backward their school day？

  
  A．Disappointed.
  B．Satisfied.
  C．Puzzled.
  D．Surprised.

• 3．People with an impulsive（冲动的）personality refer to those who tend to do things without considering the possible dangers or problems first.According to a new study by researchers at the University of Georgia，such people may be more likely to have food addiction.The study found that people exhibiting impulsive behavior weren't necessarily overweight，but impulsiveness was related to a direct relationship with food，and therefore，less healthy weight.
     Food addiction has been compared to addictive drug use.Studies have linked the dopamine（多巴胺）release that occurs after tasting delicious food to the dopamine release that happens when people consume other addictive substances（物质）.
     Impulsive behavior involves several personality traits（特点）.Two of these traits，known as negative urgency and lack of perseverance，were particularly associated with food addiction and high BMI （身体质量指数） during the study.
     Negative urgency is characterized by the tendency to behave impulsively when experiencing negative emotions.Some people might drink alcohol or take drugs.For others，it could mean eating to feel better.Lack of perseverance is when a person has a hard time finishing hard or boring tasks.People with a lack of perseverance might have difficulty attempting to change addictive eating behavior，which could also cause obesity（肥胖）.
     "Impulsiveness might be one reason why some people eat in an addictive way despite motivation to lose weight，" said Dr.Ashley Gearhardt，a clinical psychologist.He was involved in developing the Yale Food Addiction Scale in aid of those people. "We are theorizing that if food addiction is really a thing，then our measure，the Yale Food Addiction Scale，should be related to helping control impulsive action，" said Gearhardt.
     Clinical psychologist Dr.James MacKillop，whose lab was conducting the study，believes that therapies（治疗，疗法）used to treat addictive drug behavior could help people who suffer from addictive eating habits.
     "Most of the programs for weight loss at this point focus on the most obvious things，which are clearly diet and exercise，" MacKillop said. "It seems that managing strong desires to eat would naturally fit in with the skills a person would need to eat healthily."
  
  （1）According to Paragraph 1，the result of food addiction is

  .
  A．taking alcohol or drugs
  B．motivation to lose weight
  C．negative emotions
  D．less healthy weight
  （2）How does the author introduce the two personality traits in Paragraph 4？

  
  A．By making comparisons and conclusions.
  B．By explaining causes and effects.
  C．By giving definitions and examples.
  D．By presenting questions and answers.
  （3）What can be inferred about the Yale Food Addiction Scale from the text？

  
  A．It has been successfully carried out among overweight people.
  B．It might help some impulsive people with food addiction to lose weight.
  C．It will prove whether food addiction is a problem to impulsive people.
  D．It is theoretically a proper treatment for addictive food and drug behavior.
  （4）What does the passage mainly talk about？

  
  A．Impulsive personality linked to food addition
  B．Food addiction compared to drug use
  C．Dopamine release caused by food addiction
  D．Food addiction contributing to obesity

• 4．While flatmates can bring about stress and difficulty，they can also be great company and develop into wonderful，lifelong friends.Before making the decision to live with a flatmate or to live alone，consider carefully all the accompanying advantages and disadvantages.
     Most people join forces with a flatmate primarily due to financial problem.A shared living space also means you're responsible for only half of the rent or shared bills.Additionally，when you're splitting costs，you can afford a better apartment than you could alone.However，money can become a point of argument for flatmates as well.If your flatmate gets laid off or quits his job，you may have to pick up his bill until he's back on his feet.Your flatmate may also insist he owe less because he doesn't use the shower too often.
     In addition to bills and the rent，flatmates also typically share responsibility for unpleasant tasks，such as cleaning or doing the dishes.Without a flatmate，cleaning and tidying responsibilities are yours alone.However，flatmates also frequently end up sharing plenty of other things many people would rather not：use of the TV，the bathroom，food and even clothing，for example.You may have to wake up earlier than you'd like to get a hot shower before work or give up watching your favorite show because your flatmate beat you to it.
     When you live alone，you get to determine the terms of your social life，and you go home to an empty house or apartment at the end of the day.That can be preferable if you're a serious student or professional，someone who needs to work and rest in the quiet of an apartment.With a flatmate，there are unexpected guests and your social options can expand sharply.Keep in mind，however，that having a flatmate means that he may feel social when you do not，and you may have to deal with wanted house guests.
  
  （1）What's the main reason for most people to share a flat？

  
  A．Ensuring safety.
  B．Saving money.
  C．Sharing housework.
  D．Reducing loneliness.
  （2）What does the author say about a serious flatmate？

  
  A．He likes a peaceful life.
  B．He has excellent social manners.
  C．He keeps everything in the room tidy.
  D．He often turns away unexpected guests.
  （3）How does the author express his opinions？

  
  A．By describing the process.
  B．By stating an argument.
  C．By making comparisons.
  D．By analyzing the outcome.
  （4）Which of the following can be the best title for the text？

  
  A．Buying a Flat or Sharing One？
  B．The Reasons for Sharing a Flat
  C．How to Share a Flat with a Flatmate？
  D．The Advantages and Disadvantages of Flatsharing
