Once again, science supports what your grandmother told you: A good night's sleep helps your body fight a cold.

People who averaged fewer than seven hours of sleep per   1   in the weeks before being exposed to the cold virus were nearly three times   2   likely to get sick as those who   3   eight hours or more, a new study found.

Researchers used frequent telephone   4   to track the sleep   5   of more than 150 men and women aged 21 to 55 over the course of a few weeks. Then they   6   the subjects to the virus, quarantined them for five days and kept   7   of who got sick.

  8   sleeping more, sleeping better also seemed to   9   the body fight illness: Patients who fared better on a measure   10   as 'sleep efficiency' - the percentage of time in bed that you're actually sleeping - were also   11   likely to get sick.

The results held   12   even after researchers   13   for variables such as body-mass index, age, sex, smoking and pre-existing antibodies to the   14   .

  15   your grandmother, the researchers aren't exactly sure   16   sleeping better makes you less likely to   17   a cold. But they   18    take a stab at the answer: 'Sleep disturbance influences the regulation of proinflammatory cytokines(促炎细胞因子), histamines, and other symptom mediators that are released in response to infection.' In plain English, maybe tossing and turning when you're   19   with the cold virus   20   to the symptoms that define a cold.

解析:

本文说明了一项科学调查又一次证实了老祖母们的说法:一夜好睡眠,感冒挡在门外面。完成本完形填空时,我们应把生活中睡眠和抵抗感冒的实际和作者的思路逻辑联系起来。

1. B检测名词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。联系日常生活中的常识,经过分析,语意是:那些平均每晚睡七个小时还少的人比平均每晚睡八个小时还多的人在面临感冒病毒时多将近两倍的可能患上感冒。我们容易推理出此空应该填上表示晚上之意的名词,也即是B项,而其余ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:白天,一周,一月,这些意思都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故B项为准确答案。

2. B检测介词词组的含义的准确记忆与理解。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示和…..一样之意的介词和下一个as一起构成固定短语as……as……,很明显其余ACD项无法这样,故B项为准确答案。

3. C 考查动词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示平均之意的名词动,这四个词中只有C项有这样的意思。而其余ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:发生,工作,盼望,很显然,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故B项为准确答案。

4. A检测名词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:研究人员通过经常性的电话访问跟踪了150多名21-55岁年龄段的人(有男有女)几周内的睡眠习惯。看出此处应该填上表示采访之意的名词,BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:报告,通知,要求,这些词语所表示的意思都和这儿的语言逻辑不相契合,只有A项有这样的意思,故A项最佳。

5. D 检测形容词的含义的准确记忆与理解。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示习惯之意的名词,这四个词中只有D项有这样的意思,而其余ABC项依次分别所表达的意思是:嗜好,质量,进步,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故D项为准确答案。

6. A 检测动词的含义的准确记忆与理解。联系上下文的语境,经过分析,语意是:。然后让这些研究对象接触感冒病毒,隔离5天之后,看看哪些人患上了感冒。这里的接触就是让他们暴露于的意思,这四个词中只有A项有这样的意思,而其余BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:放置,保护,恳求,这些意思都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故A项为准确答案。

7. C 检测名词的含义辨析。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该和keep一起构成短语表示看看,也就是跟踪之意,这四个词中只有C项有这样的用法,而其余ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:联系,核对,报答,这些意思和keep搭配之后的意思都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故C项为准确答案。

8. B检测介词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。联系上下文的语境,及日常生活中的常识,我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:除延长睡眠时间外,提高睡眠质量看起来也有助于人体抵抗疾病。我们不难看出此处应该填上表示除了…..之外还有…..之意的介词,ACD项依次分别所表达的意思是:除掉,在……之内,通过,这些意思很明显都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故B项为准确答案。

9. C 考查动词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示有助于之意的动词,也即是C项,而其余ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:使……受益(其后不能跟复合宾语即是不能用作benefit sb./sth. do sth.),保卫(其后往往跟sb./sth.from/against sth.),帮助(其后也不能跟复合宾语即是不能用作assist sb./sth. do sth.),故C项最佳。

10. A考查动词过去分词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:那些在人们所知的名叫“睡眠效率”评测中表现较好的病人患病的几率也较低。我们不难看出此处应该填上表示人们所知的之意的词,这四个词中只有A项有这样的意思,而其余BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:扮演,指定,分类,虽然都和as搭配,但是这些意思很明显都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故A项为准确答案。

11. B 检测形容词比较级的含义的准确记忆与理解。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示较小的之意的形容词比较级,也即是B项,而其余ACD项依次分别所表达的意思是:较多的,远的,总共的,非常显然,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑和语境语意,故B项为准确答案。

12. D检测形容词的含义的准确记忆与理解。经过分析,语意是:即便是在研究人员将身高体重指数(BMI)、年龄、性别、是否吸烟以及是否早有病毒抗体等因素考虑进来进行调整之后,这个结论仍然真实可靠。我们容易推理出这一空应该填上表示真实的之意的形容词,ABC项依次分别所表达的意思是:理想的,假的,事实上的,很明显放在这儿都不是这样的意思,不能使句意通顺,只有D项有真实的意思,故D项最佳。

13. B 检测动词的含义的准确记忆与理解应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示进行调整之意的动词,这四个词中只有B项(调整,调节)有这样的意思,而其余ACD项依次分别所表达的意思是:收养,扩大,雇佣,非常清楚,这些意思在都能是语意顺畅,不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故B项为准确答案。

14. C 检测名词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。联系上下文的语境,及日常生活中的常识,由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示病毒之意的名词,也即是C项,而ABD项这些词语所表示的意思身体,细胞,药品等等都和这儿的语言逻辑不相契合,故我们选择C项为最佳答案。

15. A 检测介词的含义的准确记忆与理解应用。联系上下文的语境,我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:和老祖母们一样,研究人员也不能肯定为什么睡得好能降低患感冒的几率。经过分析,我们不难确定此处应该填上表示像……一样之意的介词,只有A项有这样的意思,能使句意通顺,而其余BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:作为,反对,经过,很明显放在这儿都不符合上下文之间语言逻辑,故我们选择A项为最佳答案。

16. D 检测连词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面在引导宾语从句时的准确应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示为什么之意的词来引导宾语从句,很明显ABC项依次分别所表达的意思:什么,何时,何地,放在这儿都不能使句意通顺,故D项为准确答案。

17. A 检测动词的含义的准确记忆与理解应用。由第15题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示患上之意的动词,这四个词中只有A项有这样的意思,而其余BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:形成,斗争,预防,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故B项为准确答案。

18. C考查动词do用来表示强调的应用。经过分析,语意是:不过他们的确猜中了原因是:睡眠不良会影响人体对促炎细胞因子、组胺和其他为应对病毒感染而释放的症状调节因子的调节。这四个词中只有C项有的确这样的意思,而其余ABD项没有这的用法,故我们选择C项为最佳答案。

19. A 检测形容词的含义的准确记忆与理解。联系上下文的语境,及日常生活中的常识,我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:说白了,就是染上感冒病毒后睡觉时的辗转反侧可能是造成感冒症状的原因之一。经过分析,我们不难看出此处应该填上表示感染之意的动词,这四个词中只有A项有这样的意思,而其余ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:包围,限制,附加,很明显放在这儿都不能使句意通顺,故A项最佳。

20. D 考查动词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示造成之意的动词,ABC项依次分别所表达的意思是:拉,推广,加快速度,和这儿的语言逻辑不相契合,而D项和to搭配之后的意思就是造成,句意通顺,故D项最佳。

It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005.While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work.On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does.After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.

         The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport.Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family.And the bike was also used to get groceries(食品杂货),saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.

         People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so.This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity(人性)as a whole.And it has influenced(影响)us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others.No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares.And the results can be everlasting.

There was one shop in the town of Mufulira which was widely known for its racial discrimination. It was a drugstore .While Europeans were served at the counter ,a long line of Africans queued at the window and often not only were kept waiting but were treated rudely by the shop assistants .One day I was determined to make a public protest (抗议)against this kind of thing ,and many of the schoolboys in my class followed me to the store.

       I simply went into the shop and asked the manager politely for some medicine. As soon as he saw me standing in the place where only European customers were allowed to stand ,he shouted at me in a bastard (怪声怪气的)language which is only used by a boss when speaking to his servants .I stood at the counter and politely requested in proper English that I should be served .The manager became angry and said , “Even if you stand till Christmas ,I will never serve you .”

       I went to the District Commissioner’s office .Fortunately ,he was out ,for he was one of the old school; however ,I saw a young District Officer who was a friend of mine .He was very concerned to hear my story and told me that all I had to do was come to him personally and he would buy my medicine for me .I protested that that was not good enough .I asked him to accompany me back to the store and to make a protest to the manager .This he did ,and I well remember him saying to the manager , “Here is Mr. Kaunda who is a responsible member of the Urban Advisory Council, and you treat him like a common servant .” The manager of the drugstore apologized and said , “If only he had introduced himself and explained who he was ,then ,of course ,I should have given him proper service.”

       I had to explain once again that he had missed my point .Why should I have to introduce myself every time I went into a store…any more than I should have to buy my medicine by going to a European friend ? I want to prove that any man of any color ,whatever his position ,should have the right to go into any shop and buy what he wanted .After all, the money which I paid across the counter was exactly the same money as was paid by a European customer.

New York has taken the title of the world’s top fashion capital from Milan. The annual survey suggest that the top five fashion cities are facing competition from Asia and Australia. New York had been the top fashion city for five years, but Milan took the title in 2009. The survey was made by the Global Language Monitor, a US based organization. It tracks the frequency(频率) of words and phrases in the media, on the Internet and throughout the blog. With the US economy recovering, New York once again took the top title. Hong Kong took second place. It was followed by London, Paris and Los Angeles. The other top 10 cities were Milan, Sydney, Miami, Barcelona and Madrid.

“Because of the new economic situation, the global fashion centers have also changed a lot, ”said Bekka Payack. the Manhattan-based fashion reporter for the Global Language Monitor. “The new list shows that global fashion centers will change now and then. Compared with the traditional fashion cities, some new ones are performing better and better. ”She said that perhaps this is new trend, and it is the first sign that the traditional top five fashion cities——New York, Paris, London, Milan, and Rome——do not control global fashion any more.

The biggest changes in the list are Hong Kong, Madrid and Melbourne. The Group said that the top newcomers to the list include Amsterdam at number 17, Cape Town at 23, Johannesburg at 25 and Vienna at 27.
