20.I love sleeping.It's something I'm good at.There's nothing better than nodding off on the sofa in front of the TV and when my head hits the pillow at night,I have no problem falling into a deep sleep within minutes.There is one place where I never nap(打盹) and that's work-but new research suggests I should!
The idea of you and your colleagues(同事) heading off for a lie-down in the afternoon may seem strange,but some companies such as Google and Facebook actually encourage it.Because it's thought that a power-nap makes them more refreshed and more focused,and this in turn makes them more productive.
An Australian health writer called Victoria is a founder of a campaign called Nap Now which is trying to make sleeping at work more acceptable.She calls herself a"naptivist"!She says:"I think that our culture is a bit crazy not to accept it.It's time to end the common work principle which is all about working longer and harder."
So should we all take a sleeping bag and pillow to work with us?A few years ago,research by the East of England Development Agency found 30% of people have their best ideas in bed compared to just 11% who have them at their desks.That suggests people are more creative when they are relaxed and the agency has called for companies to put beds in the workplace.
A nap in the afternoon is nothing new.In certain hot countries,such as Spain,a short rest or sleep in the afternoon,called a siesta,is quite normal.So maybe we should break from the traditional nine-to-five work culture and take a siesta.The UK's Sleep Council claims(声称) the nine-to-five working day does not fit into the natural sleeping pattern of the human race and says that bosses need to introduce a more friendly working day for sleep.
32.Why are the employees of Google allowed to nap in the workplace?A
A.They are expected to work better.
B.They can't focus their attention on the work.
C.They support the Nap Now campaign.
D.They have difficulty falling asleep at night.
33.The underlined word"naptivist"in Paragraph 3probably refers to someone whoB.
A.takes no nap at work             
B.enjoys napping at work
C.studies sleeping at work           
D.fights against working long hours
34.According to the passage,what can we learn about siesta?D
A.It is a newly introduced pattern.
B.It has been taken up in Finland.
C.It is sort of traditional work culture.
D.It fits into the natural sleeping pattern.
35.What is the author's main purpose of writing the passage?D
A.To explain how to nap at work.
B.To show how the new study was carried out.
C.To tell us the importance of sleeping at work.
D.To call for the more friendly work culture for sleep.
4.Yesterday afternoon I went back home and found the door to my house had been opened.The house had not been broken into because the(41)D had been safely undone (打开)and placed on the roof of the kennel(狗窝)where we normally put it.On the door mat(垫) was a pair of shoes(42)B to my wife and this made me believe that it was she who had(43)D the door.This was(44)B because she is always the one coming home(45)A in the evening from work.Being a banker,the nature of her job(46)C her to stay out till around 7:30in the evening.
I entered the house and(47)B directly to the bedroom where I thought she was.I found she had covered her face with a blanket when I entered the(48)A,and she became quite emotional and started weeping(49)D.I tried to ask her what was wrong,but she couldn't (50)C it.I guessed that maybe she had been(51)D that one of her relatives was dead.I sat her down on the bed and brought her a glass of water to help her cool down.
When she had calmed down,she told me,"I am(52)B my job.Some clients(顾客) (53)D for loans two weeks ago and I was(54)B with ensuring that the processing the loans was completed.The bank had delayed processing the loans and some customers have been(55)C me and insulting(辱骂)me on the phone and on social media.The bank administrators have been very(56)B to respond to the applications and I feel that this is a(n) (57)C."I looked at her keenly and told her,"Darling,if you want to shed (流) tears because of what people say or think about you,then you tears will fill barrels before you die.Our(58)D won't help in finishing your enemies but will help them in finishing you.The pain of being(59)A might sometimes be strong,but still,it costs us(60)D to forget and move on."

14.Terraforming (Earth-forming) other planets,also known as planetary engineering (行星工程),seems like a task still centuries away for mankind to accomplish.However,it is a vigorous topic that attracts both popular and scientific interest.Why should the possibility of terraforming other planets be studied when it may be centuries before we know enough to even decide if it's a good idea?
Mankind is getting more and more hard facts about other planets.The atmosphere of Venus has been explored; robots have surveyed the surface of Mars; Mercury,Jupiter and Saturn have been studied by spacecraft. Speculations have been answered;new questions have been raised,and enough hard data is right now becoming available to allow us to make the first attempt of planetary engineering.
In the past,people with excellent ideas about terraforming have kept them to themselves,or buried them in a desk drawer because they did not realize that anyone else was interested.But now,a wide circle of people has begun to do this kind of work.For instance,NASA funded a project on transforming Mars.
There are several strong reasons which demand that the possibilities of terraforming be studied carefully.First,it's an exciting idea of a possible future for human beings.Such thinking has a valuable role in providing options for our future directions.Secondly,the techniques of terraforming will also help contemporary technologies in weather and climate control.Thirdly,such study may assist us in detecting any possible existence of extraterrestrial(地球外的)intelligence and alien civilizations on other planets.
Though the mission is far beyond our reach at the moment,we should at least keep our options open.Through debate and study on this subject,the possibility of rebuilding other planets to make them suitable homes for people may come true some day in the future.

84.According to the context,what's the meaning of the word"Speculation"in paragraph 2?C
A.The act of discussing something with a group of people.
B.The act of studying and researching.
C.The act of guessing without knowing all the facts about something.
D.The acting of writing letters to a certain organization.
85.Why did people keep the idea of terraforming to themselves in the past?A
A.They thought no one else would show interest in the idea.
B.They gradually came to find the idea crazy.
C.They thought the idea would never come true.
D.They had few resources for further study on this topic.
86.Which is NOT the reason to support the study of terraforming?D
A.Even if we don't succeed in terraforming,such study may help us to better understand technologies such as climate and weather control.
B.Such study may explore a new direction of development for human beings.
C.Such study may enable us to find the lives on other planets.
D.As the resources on Earth are being drained,it's very urgent to study how to migrate to other planets.
87.What's the main idea of the article?B
A.It's highly possible that terraforming other planets will come true so we should increase investing in this program.
B.Even if the idea of terraforming other planets may take centuries to realize,we have many reasons to support such studies.
C.Terraforming other planets is the best option for human being's future.
D.More and more people are taking planetary engineering as their occupation.
14.Why are people interested in eating raw foods or whole foods One reason is that eating these types of food reduces the risk of acid accumulation in your body.
    Raw and whole foods are usually digested more efficiently than cooked and refined foods.When we cook foods,we destroy the natural enzymes(酶)that are part of the food in its raw form.These enzymes were intended by nature to help us digest the food.When we consume food without these natural enzymes,our bodies either digest the food improperly or allow too many nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream.In both instances,the result is obesity.When too many nutrients are absorbed at once,the body grows fat.Improperly digested food moves slowly through the digestive tract,where it becomes increasingly acidic (酸性的).To protect its vital organs from this acidic waste,the body changes the acid into fat and stores it safely away from the organs.
    Processed foods contain chemical elements,which might confuse the appetite mechanism that tells us when we've had enough to eat; as a result,people often overeat.Processed foods also upset the digestive cycle.The body will either identify these foods as allergens and then store them safely away from the organs as fat,or the remains of undigested food will become acidic and enter the bloodstream as acid waste,which will stick to the blood vessel walls and block the passage of vital oxygen and nutrients heading for the body's cells.The body's metabolism(新陈代谢) becomes inactive,and then result is weight gain and obesity.
    The accumulation of acid in the digestive tract makes digestion increasingly inefficient.When that happens,even healthy foods can become acidic and the food allergies will become more common.
    To stop this vicious(恶性的) circle in its tracks,people need to consume food and supplements that will neutralize (使…中和)the acid already accumulated in body.Eating the right types of raw and whole foods can help.It's also important to restore your enzyme balance.You need to identify and avoid the foods that cause acid accumulation and consume the foods that increase enzyme production.If you truly want to change and help your body heal itself,you need to take an active approach..
