解答 28.B    考查名词辨析        根据下文的"jetlag(时差反应)"可知,在旅行时要适应时差,因此选change表示"变化",故选B.
29.A    考查动词辨析        根据上文的"hardly fallasleep"可知,人们常常不能顺利地倒时差会导致时差反应,"suffer from   遭受…",故选A.
30. B    考查名词辨析       根据语境可知,一般旅行的人常常用安眠药或酒对付这种状况,"problem"指的是上文提到的不能入睡的难题,故选B.
31. D    考查副词辨析       根据语境可知,作者在下文中给读者提出了有效的建议.justas effectively表示"同样有效地",故选D.
32. C    考查动词辨析      根据句中的"daytime"可知,上飞机前,开始调整你的生物钟到你的目的地的时间."adjust…to…把…调整到…",故选C.
33. A    考查动词辨析      根据语境可知,如果你白天到目的地,试着要保持清醒,"stay awake保持清醒",故选A.
34. D    考查连词辨析      根据语境可知,在乘飞机之前要用餐,否则空腹会让你睡不着觉.这是一个"祈使句+and/or+陈述句"的句式,祈使句"eatbefore the flight"和"an empty stomach"是相反的,所以用or,故选D.
35. D    考查连词辨析     根据语境可知,这些建议有助于你开始一个新的睡眠和清醒的周期.cycle表示"循环,周期",故选D.

点评 解答细节理解题时,一个常用的方法就是运用定位法,即根据题干和选项中的关键词从原文中找到相关的句子,与选项进行比较从而确定答案;推理判断题 既要求学生透过文章表面文字信息推测文章隐含意思,又要求学生对作者的态度、意图及文章细节的发展作正确的推理判断,力求从作者的角度去考虑,不要固守自己的看法或观点.

6.The high school grades of Tom Monaghan,who was born in 1937,were so low that he graduated at the bottom of his class.The local university turned down his application,but he managed to enter the University of Michigan.A few weeks later,he dropped out because he lacked money for school fees.In 1960,Monaghan agreed to buy a pizza store with his brother,who gave up a year later.
For the first year,Monaghan worked all the time but hardly made any money.He soon found himself deep in debt.He began making the business simpler,selling only three sizes of pizza,instead of five.This change helped Monaghan make a profit,which allowed him to expand his three stores under a new name,Domino's.
However,during the following years Monaghan experienced a series of setbacks.In 1967,a fire destroyed his store in Ypsilanti,Michigan,which served as the company's offices.Most of the damage was not covered by insurance.In an effort to recover his losses,Monaghan continued to expand his franchise,but was unable to keep up with the growth.Without Monaghan's guidance,many of the new stores closed down.By 1970,Monaghan was 1.5 million in debt and facing law suits from nearly 150 debtors.In the following financial settlement,Monaghan lost 51 percen of his company to the bank.But Monaghan concentrated on building the 49 percent of the business he still owned.Slowly,he began to work his way out of his financial difficulties.He defended himself in court since he could not afford a lawyer.He sold his furniture and his car.In about a year,he managed to pay off all his debts.These hard times taught him avaluable lesson in how to run a business.By 1978,two hundred Domino's stores had opened.Five years later,the number of stores was over a thousand;by 1989,the chain had more than five thousand stores.The company had more than six thousand pizza delivery stores when Monaghan sold it for 1 billion in 1998.

57.How did Monaghan expand his three stores under a new name,Domino's according to the second paragraph?(No more than 15words)The profit from his business simplification helped him./Monaghan made his business simpler so that he made a profit which helped him.

frustrations/discouragements/losses/blocks/breakdowns/difficulties/troubles
59.How did Monaghan finally succeed after he lost 51percent of his company?

1.The oddness of life in space never quite goes away.Here are some examples.
First consider something as simple as sleep.Its position presents its ownchallenges.The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag.If you leave your arms out,they float free in zero gravity,often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny ballet (芭蕾) dancer."I'm an inside guy,"Mike Hopkins says,who returned from a six-month tour on the International Space Station."I like to be wrapped up."
On the station,the ordinary becomes strange.The exercise bike for the American astronaut has no handlebars.It also has no sear.With no gravity,it's just as easy to pedal violently.You can watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want.Without gravity to help circulate air,the carbon dioxide you exhale(呼气)has a tendency to form an invisible(隐形的)cloud around your head.You can end up with whatastronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache.
Leroy Chiao,54,an American retiredastronaut after four flights,describes what happens even before you float out of your seat."Your inner ear thinks you're falling.Meanwhile your eyes are telling you you're standing straight.That can be annoying-that's why some people feel sick."Within a couple of days-truly terrible days for some-astronauts'brains learn to ignore the panicky signals from the inner ear,and space sickness disappears.
Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous.For instance,astronauts lose bone mass.That's why exercise is considered so vital that National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) puts in right on the workdayschedule.The focus on fitness is as much about science and the future as it is about keeping any individualastronaut healthy.NASA is worried about two things:recovery time once astronauts return home,and,more importantly,how to maintainstrength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would take to make a round-trip to Mars.

63.What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space?A
A.Deciding on a proper sleep position.
B.Choosing a comfortable sleeping bag.
C.Seeking a way to fall asleep quickly.
D.Finding a right time to go to sleep.
64.The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache whenC?
A.they circle around on their bikes
B.they use microcomputers without a stop
C.Theyexercise in one place for a long time
D.they watch a movie while pedaling
65.Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days becauseD?
A.their senses stop working
B.they have to stand up straight
C.they float out of their seats unexpectedly
D.their brains receive contradictory messages
66.One of NASA's major concerns about astronauts isB.
A.how much exercise they do on the station
B.how they can remain healthy for long in space
C.whether they can recover after returning home
D.whether they are able to go back to the station.

18.Recordings of angry bees are enough to send big,tough African elephants running away,a new study says.Beehives (蜂窝)-either recorded or real-may even prevent elephants from damaging farmer's crops.
In 2002,scientist Lucy King and her team found that elephants avoid certain trees with bees living in them.Today,Lucy wants to see if African honeybees might discourage elephants from eating crops.But before she asked farmer to go to the trouble of setting up beehives on their farms,she needed to find out if the bees would scare elephants away.
Lucy found a wild beehive inside a tree in northern Kenya and set up a recorder.Then she threw a stone into the beehive,which burst into life.Lucy and her assistant hid in their car until the angry bees had calmed down.Next,Lucy searched out elephant families in Samburu National Reserve in northern Kenya and put a speaker in a close to each family.
From a distance,Lucy switched on the pre-recorded sound of angry bees while at the same time recording the elephants with a video camera.Half the elephant groups left the area within ten seconds.Out of a total of 17groups,only one group ignored the sound of the angry bees.Lucy reported that all the young elephants immediately ran to their mothers to hide under them.When Lucy Played the sound of a waterfall (瀑布) instead of the angry bees to many of the same elephant families,the animals were undisturbed.Even after four minutes,most of the groups stayed in one place.
Lucy is now studying whether the elephants will continue to avoid the sound of angry bees after hearing it several times.She hasn't tested enough groups yet to know,but her initial (最初的) results were promising enough to begin trials with farmers.She has now begun placing speakers in the fields to see if elephants are frightened away.

60.We know from the passage that elephants may he frightened ofD.
A.loud noises    B.some crops
C.video cameras   D.angry bees
61.As mentioned in the passage,LucyB

B.needs to test more elephant groups
C.has stopped elephants eating crops
D.has got farmers to set up beehives on their farms
62.Why did Lucy throw a stone into a wild beehive?A
A.To record the sound of bees.
B.To make a video of elephants.
C.To see if elephants would run away.
D.To find out more about the behavior of bees.

A.Young elephants ignore African honeybees.
