For five days in a ro

23、w, the subjects (实验对象) read either a paper book or an iPad for four hours before sleep. Their sleep patterns were monitored all night. Before and after each trial period, they took hourly blood tests to paint a day-long picture of just how much melatonin (褪黑激素) was in their blood at any given time.W

For most young

69、kids, its a normal request, but I had cerebral palsy(大脑性瘫痪). Walking anywhere, let alone a crowded place like Disney World was, to put it lightly, a tall order. Luckily, I had people in my corner to help me. Over the next three years, I worked with physical doctors, acquired a walker, and practiced

70、walking, standing, and balanceall the skills that I would need to turn my goal into a reality. I remember the feeling when my legs would protest doing any more work. Despite this, everyone else told me I could do it, so I kept it up. It was all because of the people around that I was able to grow bo

71、th physically and mentally, with them constantly pushing me to “walk on”.On June 9, 2008, as I stood in the tunnel leading into Main Street, my dad asked me if I wanted any help. I instantly replied “No!” and situated myself facing the end of the tunnel, feet planted firmly, heart most likely beatin

72、g out of my chest. Then I went, walking ever so slowly at first, then gradually speeding up. Step, step, step, step, bump. Holding fast onto the handlebars, I gathered all my strength, picked up my walker and straightened up, picking up my pace once again. It wasnt long before the cheering increased

73、 because I had made it to the end.Looking back on that experience, I realise something pretty thoughtful. Every once in a while, life will throw a few bumps in the road.

But where are we doing all of this waiting, and what d

78、oes it mean to an impatient society like ours? To understand the issue, lets take a look at three types of “waits”.The very purest form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait. It is without doubt the most annoying of all. Take filling up the kitchen sink(厨房洗涤盆) as an example. There is absolutely nothing

79、 you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until its full. During these waits, the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counter and onto your socks. This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless.A cousin to

80、 the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires a bit of discipline. Properly preparing packaged noodle soup requires a Forced Wait. Directions are very specific. “Bring three cups of water to boil, add mix, simmer for three minutes, remove from heat, let stand for five minutes.” I have

81、my doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures strictly. After all, Forced Waiting requires patience.Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky-Break Wait. This type of wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary. Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary,

82、 waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen.Turning ones life into a waiting game requires faith and hope, and is strictly for the optimists among us. On the surface it seems as ridiculous as following the directions on soup mixes, but the Lucky-Break Wait well serves

83、 those who are willing to do it. As long as one doesnt come to rely on it, wishing for a few good things to happen never hurts anybody.We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting. The next time youre standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle soup that youll have to e

84、at until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky, dont be desperate. Youre probably just as busy as the next guy.8. While doing a Watched-Pot Wait, we tend to .A. keep ourselves busy B. get absent-mindedC. grow anxious D. stay focused解析:细节理解题。作者在第二段分析第一类等待的时候说,在“看着水壶式的等待”中,我们的大脑经常会开小差(. the brain s

85、lips away from the body and wanders about .),这与B项陈述吻合。答案:B9. What is the difference between the Forced Wait and the Watched-Pot Wait?A. The Forced Wait requires some self-control.B. The Forced Wait makes people passive.C. The Watched-Pot Wait needs directions.D. The Watched-Pot Wait engages body and

86、 brain.解析:推理判断题。作者在第三段中解释第二种等待(即“被迫等待”)的时候说,这种等待需要一些纪律(This one requires a bit of discipline.),需要耐心(. requires patience.),这与A项陈述的“需要一些自我控制”是一致的。答案:A10. What does the author advise us to do the next time we are waiting?A. Take it seriously.B. Dont rely on others.C. Do something else.D. Dont lose hear

87、t.解析:细节理解题。作者在最后一段说,下次我们在等待的时候不要绝望(. dont be desperate.),在等待的时候你可能很忙,别人也可能很忙。由此推断选D“不要灰心”。答案:D11. The author supports his view by .A. exploring various causes of “waits”B. describing detailed processes of “waits”C. analysing different categories of “waits”D. revealing frustrating consequences of “wa

88、its”解析:推理判断题。从文章内容看,作者首先说明等待在我们生活中的重要性,然后把等待分为“看着水壶式的等待”“被迫等待”和“运气式的等待”三种类型,并逐一分析各自的特点,因此选C。答案:CDLocated near Ismailia, about two hours from Egypts capital, Cairo, Serapium Forest is nothing short of an environmental wondera 240-hectare forest of both native and non-native trees growing in the middl

89、e of the desert.Serapium Forest is a research project by Egyptian and German scientists that started during the 1990s. They knew Egypt had important advantages over European countries, like the absence of hard winters that could interrupt growth of fast-growing local tree species, so if they had eno

90、ugh water,trees would grow even in a hard desert environment. Egypt has very little rainfall, so researchers had to come up with a sustainable(可持续的) solution to provide the trees with the necessary water.
