Everyone has unique needs and preferences, and individual sleep requirements are no different.
However, the amount of sleep you need per night is mainly determined by your age.
Official recommendations for the length of a person’s sleep are broken down by age group: Older adults (65+): 7–8 hours
Adults (18–64 years): 7–9 hours
Teenagers (14–17 years): 8–10 hours
School children (6–13 years): 9–11 hours
Preschoolers (3–5 years): 10–13 hours (including naps) Toddlers (1–2 years): 11–14 hours (including naps) Infants (4–12 months): 12–15 hours (including naps) Newborns (0–3 months): 14–17 hours
However, some people might need more or less sleep than what is generally recommended, depending on the following factors.
Genetic makeup
Your genetics are an important factor in how many hours of sleep you need per night.
For example, those with one specific genetic mutation (基因突变) need only around 6 hours, whereas people without such particular mutation require about 8 hours, on average.
Sleep quality
The quality of your sleep can also affect how much you need.
If your sleep quality is poor, you may find that you still feel tired after getting what should be considered enough.
Therefore, it’s not only important to focus on sleeping long enough but also on sleeping well enough. If you often feel like you aren’t sleeping well or are extremely tired and don’t know why, it’s a good idea to check in with your healthcare provider.
What is the main reason for the amount of sleep we need per night
A. Sleep quality. B. Genetics. C. Our eating habits. D. Our age.
Which of the following statements is true according to the passage
All school children need to sleep for 9 to 11 hours.
Any kind of genetic mutation can lead to a 6-hour sleep pattern.
You should turn to your healthcare provider as long as you feel tired.
Poor sleep quality may lead to tiredness though you’ve got enough sleep.
Where does this passage most probably come from
A health magazine. B. A travel brochure.
C. A fashion website. D. A sports newspaper.
B
At Christmas last year, Cathy Wood’s family home in Manchester was disturbingly quiet. Her daughters, 19 and 21, were revising for exams. She says she and her husband “hardly saw anything interesting in the festival…I was a bit fed up.” Bored and frustrated, she bought a 45kg bunch ( 一捆) of secondhand clothes, without knowing what she was going to do with it.
Wood, a former teacher of English, has always loved clothes. At university, Wood hung out with the fashion students and sewed ( 缝纫) her own new romantic outfits. Wood, now 62, enjoyed shopping for vintage (老款) clothing and had even discussed getting a shop with a friend, but the rents put them off. A week or so after the bunch arrived, she booked a stall (货摊) at West Didsbury Makers Market.
Standing at her first market stall was a wholly new experience though. “It was very different from teaching. In market, you need the right amount of contact with people.” Wood sold four pieces at her first market, which paid for the stall and left a small surplus (盈余). Now, she sometimes returns home with 30 empty coat hangers. But it was the contact with customers and fellow traders that she found most rewarding. “It’s a lovely atmosphere. You chat and get to know each other. I really enjoyed it.” she says.
Sometimes, in quiet moments on the stall, she takes out her mending and thinks of her mother and grandmother. “My grandmother taught art and crafts, and both she and my mother spent a lot of time with the sewing machine, teaching me to sew,” “What these clothes do is to transport me back to different times when things were easier for me. They give me a pleasurable feeling. Nostalgia (怀旧) can be a good thing in that way.”
After she stopped teaching, she “started to feel like a non-person”, she says. The market stall “has given me status in my own mind to be part of the community, contributing something, to be somebody people talk to, somebody people smile at.”
Why did Wood sell secondhand clothes
To keep her friend company. B. To kill her boring retirement life.
C. To pick up her sewing skills. D. To pay her daughter’s schooling fees.
What does Wood find most rewarding in her business
The profits earned from the business. B. The surroundings of the market stall.
C. The competition with different traders. D. The communication with other people.
What does the underlined word “They” in paragraph 4 refer to
The good old days. B. Art and crafts.
C. Customers and fellow traders. D. Her grandmother and mother.
What does Wood say concerning her secondhand clothes business
It has made her community richer. B. It has made her a worthy person.
C. It has improved her marketing skills. D. It has helped her to be a funny person.
C
Artificial intelligence (AI) is showing promise in earthquake prediction, challenging the long-held belief that it is impossible. Researchers at the University of Texas, Austin, have developed an AI algorithm (算法) that correctly predicted 70% of earthquakes a week in advance during a trial in China and provided accurate calculations for the predicted earthquakes.
The research team believes their method succeeded because they stuck with a relatively simple machine learning approach. The AI was provided with a set of statistical (统计的) features based on the team’s knowledge of earthquake physics, and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earthquake recordings. Once trained, the AI provided its prediction of earthquake by listening for signs of incoming earthquakes within the background rumblings (隆隆声) in the Earth.
This work is clearly a milestone in research for AI-driven earthquake prediction. “You don’t see earthquakes coming,” explains Alexandros Savvaidis, a senior research scientist who leads the Texas Seismological Network Program (TexNet). “It’s a matter of milliseconds ( 毫秒), and the only thing you can control is how prepared you are. Even with the 70% accuracy, that’s a huge result and could help minimize economic and human losses and has the potential to remarkably improve earthquake preparation worldwide.”
While it is unknown whether the same approach will work at other places, the researchers are confident that their AI algorithm could produce more accurate predictions if used in areas with reliable earthquake tracking networks. So, their next step is to test artificial intelligence in different places in Texas, since UT’s Bureau TexNet has 300 earthquake stations there and over six years’ worth of continuous records, making it ideal for these purposes.
Eventually, the authors hope to combine the system with physics-based models. This strategy could prove especially important where data is poor or lacking. “That may be a long way off, but many advances such as this one, taken together, are what moves science forward,” concludes Scott Tinker, the bureau’s director.
How does the AI predict earthquakes
By analyzing background sounds in the Earth.
By identifying data from remote sensing satellite.
By modeling data based on earthquake recordings.
By monitoring changes in the Earth’s magnetic field.
What does Alexandros Savvaidis intend to show in paragraph 3
The ways to reduce losses in earthquakes.
The accuracy of AI in earthquake prediction.
The limitation of AI algorithms in earthquake prediction.
The significance of developing AI-driven earthquake prediction.
What does the follow-up research focus on
Conducting tests in different locations.
Building more earthquake stations in Texas.
Improving the quality of earthquake tracking networks.
Applying AI approach to other fields besides earthquake.
Which words can best describe the earthquake-predicting technology
Precise but outdated. B. Effective but costly.
C. Advanced and promising. D. Potential and economical.
D
Three young American men were on a crowded train when they came across a dangerous robber. Ignoring their personal safety, they rushed the robber and controlled him. Only some people seem capable
of this sudden form of heroism (英雄主义). Why some men rise to the occasion — and others don’t — has been a bit difficult to explain. Psychologists have explored this question through biological and personality psychology.
Of course, heroism and courage can appear in many forms, and men and women risk their reputation ( 名声), health, and social recognition to do what they think is right. When it comes to physically risky bravery, people assume that men will take the lead. There are sound biological reasons for this fixed image. One of the most common fears in men is that they will be viewed as a coward (懦夫), and a man who fails to display physical courage will suffer damage to his reputation in a way that a woman will not. Throughout history, gaining a higher position among peers (同龄人) has been the ticket that needs to get punched for a man to attract future wife and father children.
People tend to have an idea of what heroes are like. When rating (打分) the personalities of movie heroes, participants expected them to be more hard-working, open to experience, approachable, and emotionally stable than the average person. But some studies suggest that people who show heroic behavior usually have the personalities of madmen: risk-taking, coolness under stress, and an eagerness to take over in social situations.
The study of the relationship between personality and heroism is at an early stage. Psychologists are still at a loss to predict in advance who will heroically step up when needed. Often, the hero is an otherwise ordinary person who finds himself on an extraordinary occasion. Meanwhile, some individuals trained to behave heroically might hesitate in a dangerous situation. Various factors like identities, occasions and specific training will influence the final heroism. Hopefully, the right mix of occasion and personalities enable courage to carry the day.
How is the topic introduced in the first paragraph
By presenting an idea. B. By giving an example.
C. By making a comparison. D. By drawing a conclusion.
What do the underlined words “get punched” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Be bought. B. Be returned. C. Be abandoned. D. Be gained.
Why is it difficult to predict who will act heroically in a crisis
Heroes are born, not made.
Heroic acts only appear in a specific crisis.
Individual personality is not a dependable sign of heroism.
Heroism is a phenomenon influenced by numerous factors.
Which of the following is the best title for the text
How Are Heroes Trained B. Why Are Heroes Important
C. Who Are the True Heroes D. What Makes a Person Heroic
第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空自处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。 We are familiar with an old saying “Clothes make the man”, which means good-looking outfits may possibly make a person better respected and look more like a true gentleman. 36 Naturally, he may be well treated even though he doesn’t seem so respectable as others imagine. In contrast, if a man is poorly or commonly dressed, he is highly likely to be looked down upon and unfairly treated, for many people judge others only by the way they dress. 37 Consequently, clothes do seem to help make a good
impression on others, and gain more respect.
38 I think the good impression one leaves on others based on clothes doesn’t last long. Only good inner quality and beauty will impress people forever and never fade. 39 Instead, when people who are fascinated by a person’s clothes eventually find out that he is an undesirable person, they may treat him with contempt (蔑视) . On top of this, people who attach too much importance to clothes would waste
their time and money on it. Besides, it has negative effects on their effort on the things that really matter.
In summary, clothes do help in making a first impression, but do not make the man. 40 Therefore, only one’s inner beauty and knowledge are more decisive of a person’s value.
However, I have a different view on this issue.
Thus, a man should be always dressed gracefully.
Nothing can count more than good quality in building up the man.
If well dressed, a man will probably gain more confidence and respect.
As a result, all the people spare no money to buy expensive fine clothes.
Clothes just make a man look better but will in no sense make a better person.
As far as these people are concerned, what one wears is an important expression of positions.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I’ll never forget the day when one of my students shyly raised his hand and said that he had never received a gift. My shocked fifth-graders were discussing a reading story about a girl who was not going to get anything for her birthday because money was tight that year. Even though this class was very open during reading discussions, Jace’s honesty surprised even me. To my greater surprise, this sweet, fifth-grade boy had gone ten years and never experienced the joy and surprise of receiving a present.
I searched my mind for a reason why he might be saying this. Did he want attention from his peers No, that was definitely not his style. Was he exaggerating ( 夸大) Again, he was not the type. Then I remembered his story. His mother was out of the picture and he lived alone with his dad. His father had a hard time holding down a job, and coming to think of it, I didn’t see his father at registration or parent-teacher meetings. Even though Jace looked a bit untidy, he always came to school with a smile and sincere enthusiasm for learning.
A few weeks after Jace’s comment, he was absent from school due to the fact that he had moved away. This happened to be the day I was announcing the news of our annual (年度的) Christmas gift exchange. Traditionally, each boy was to bring a gift for a boy in the three-dollar range and the same was true for each girl.
As we were discussing the specifics, a girl raised her hand and sincerely suggested that we do away with our traditional way, and each buy a gift for Jace instead. The enthusiasm grew as the students discussed the kinds of things they knew Jace would like. We took a quick vote and all agreed to go ahead with this wonderful idea.

应用文写作 参考范文 1 Dear Jim,
How is everything going I’m writing to invite you to the annual Campus Culture Festival to be held next Friday.
This year the festival will provide various activities ranging from singing, painting to paper cutting and kite flying, which will be quite fascinating. As a lover of traditional culture, I’d like to choose kite flying because not only can we appreciate pictures, poems and proverbs about kites, we can also have the chance to learn how to make kites from folk artists. Besides, an exciting competition for kite flying will be held. I’m sure we’ll develop our awareness of traditional culture and practical ability during this activity.
If you are interested in it, please let me know. I hope that I will meet you at the Campus Culture Festival and have a good time together.
Looking forward to your earliest reply.

参考范文 2 Dear Jim,
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua
Learning that you are keen on school activities, I’m writing to invite you to participate in our school’s upcoming “Campus Culture Festival” scheduled for next Friday.
This amazing festival features a variety of activities, ranging from classical poetry reading, masterpiece sharing, to local storytelling. As a native of Jining, the birthplace of Confucius and Mencius, I am particularly fascinated by telling local stories. A case in point is that Confucius never hesitated to learn from others, which has significantly influenced me and helped me cultivate a humble attitude in my daily life. I consider this is such a golden opportunity to broaden our visions that it can’t be missed.
I sincerely long for your attendance and share local stories in your hometown. Eagerly looking forward to your reply.

Days before our Christmas vacation. the gifts began to pour in. Students with bright eyes would eagerly tell me how they found the “perfect gift”. One student bought a complete art set, knowing Jace loved to draw. Another found toy aliens, remembering a paper Jace had written about aliens. I was amazed by their thoughtfulness and knew I couldn’t let them or Jace down. I found my information sheet and called the number listed. There was no response despite my continuous efforts. On Christmas Eve, I decided to try one last time. Amazingly, Jace answered the phone! The next thing was to drive to his home.
As I drove down his road, I saw a light flashing, and I knew which home was his. It took several trips back and forth to my car to get the gifts inside. With Jace’s eyes fixed on the piles of carefully wrapped gifts, joy mixed with gratitude was written on his face. Unforgettable were Jace’s watery eyes that seemed to be telling me he was the happiest boy that Christmas. Thinking about my thoughtful students and how excited I was to tell them about finding Jace, I had a smile of my own, and was blessed to have been a part of one important “lesson” in their lives.

W: Good evening, and welcome to the Channel 5 weather report. This weekend we expect to see stormy weather throughout the northeast region. Along the coast, there will be strong winds and heavy rain starting Friday. For those living further inland, away from the ocean, it will be less windy, but it will still be a very wet weekend. If you live in or near the mountains, stay warm and get ready for the heavy snow! Icy roads and snow will make it dangerous to go out or travel on Saturday, so it’ll be best to do indoor activities at home. Local officials are warning of possible power cut throughout the entire region. We at Channel 5 encourage everyone to keep a flashlight and spare batteries at home in case there’s no electricity. We also want to remind you to keep your mobile phones and battery packs fully charged. Fortunately, this storm system should pass quickly, and you can look forward to sunny skies starting Tuesday.
