How to Take a Nap
Whether you think you need daytime rest or not, picking up a nap habit is a smart, healthy move. A 2010 British study found that a mid-day nap was the best way to deal with the mid-afternoon tiredness.
And, unbelievably, a 2017 study showed that people who napped regularly had a 37 percent reduced risk of dying from heart disease compared to people who didn’t nap. To get the most out of your rest, follow these tips.
How long to sleep: Naps provide a lot of help depending on how long they are, says MentalFloss.com. A 20-minute nap will improve alertness(機敏); a 90-minute nap can strengthen creativity. So have a nap between 20 to 90 minutes. If you wake up from a nap feeling confused or more tired, it’s likely that your timing was just off.
What time to sleep: Prevention. com says that you experience a natural drop in body temperature between 1 pm and 3 pm. A power nap at this time can improve alertness for several hours and, for most people, won’t affect being able to fall asleep at night.
How to get comfortable: MentalFloss. com says it takes about 50 percent longer to fall asleep sitting up than lying down. (That’s why we sleep so poorly on planes and trains!) Pick a dark, quiet place . Surprisingly, the best place to sleep may be a hammock (吊床) if you have one.
Consider a “caffeine nap”: It sounds strange, but drinking coffee right before a nap may be very helpful for your alertness after the nap. Since caffeine takes 20 to 30 minutes to take full effect, you’ll feel even more awake after your 20-minute nap.

文章講述了睡午覺的好處,以及介紹了關于如何更好地午睡的幾個小常識。
【1】根據(jù)文中picking up a nap habit is a smart, healthy move.養(yǎng)成午睡的好習慣,是一個聰明健康的舉動。所以這里應該填habit,故答案為habit。
【2】根據(jù)文中A 2010 British study found that a mid-day nap was the best way to deal with the mid-afternoon tiredness.2010年英國的一項研究發(fā)現(xiàn),午睡是應對午后疲勞的最佳方式。可知比起應對午后疲勞,沒有比午睡更好的方法了。而空格前有no,這里否定的比較級表示最高級,所以這里用比較級better。故答案為better。
【3】根據(jù)文中And, unbelievably, a 2017 study showed that people who napped regularly had a 37 percent reduced risk of dying from heart disease compared to people who didn’t nap.而且,令人難以置信的是,2017年的一項研究顯示,與不打盹的人相比,經常打盹的人死于心臟病的風險降低了37%?芍洺4蝽锏娜怂烙谛呐K病的風險更小,句中有than,所以應該用比較級,故答案為less。
【4】根據(jù)文中To get the most out of your rest, follow these tips.要充分利用休息時間,請遵循以下提示。可知這里講的是如何能有一個好的午睡給出的一些建議,tip建議(可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)),suggestion建議(可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)),advice建議(不可數(shù)名詞)。根據(jù)全文可知,提出了若干個建議。且空位于句首;故答案為 Tips/Advice/suggestions。
【5】根據(jù)文中How long to sleep可知,第一個建議是睡多長時間,也就是要用多長時間啊,英語中可以表達為how much time,故答案為time。
【6】根據(jù)文中If you wake up from a nap feeling confused or more tired, it’s likely that your timing was just off.如果你從午睡中醒來感到困惑或更累,很可能你的時間剛剛過?芍@里表達的是“感覺”,英語是feel,句子主語是第二人稱,所以動詞用原形,故答案為feel。
【7】根據(jù)文中A power nap at this time can improve alertness for several hours and, for most people, won’t affect being able to fall asleep at night.此時小睡可以提高幾個小時的警覺性,對大多數(shù)人來說,不會影響晚上入睡。可知這里指的是一個否定詞,而空格后affecting,所以這里應該填介詞,故答案為without。
【8】根據(jù)文中MentalFloss. com says it takes about 50 percent longer to fall asleep sitting up than lying down.可知,坐著入睡比躺著入睡要長50%左右。所以這里應該表達的是“躺下”,英語是lie down,根據(jù)空前can可知,用動詞原形。故答案為lie。
【9】根據(jù)文中Surprisingly, the best place to sleep may be a hammock (吊床) if you have one. 令人驚訝的是,如果你有吊床的話,最好的睡覺地方可能是吊床?芍,這里表達的“驚訝的”,而Surprisingly= to our surprise。表示“讓某人驚訝的是”,所以這里應該用名詞,故答案為surprise。
【10】根據(jù)文中It sounds strange, but drinking coffee right before a nap may be very helpful for your alertness after the nap. Since caffeine takes 20 to 30 minutes to take full effect, you’ll feel even more awake after your 20-minute nap.聽起來很奇怪,但是在午睡前喝咖啡可能對你午睡后的警覺很有幫助。因為咖啡因需要20到30分鐘才能完全發(fā)揮作用,所以在小睡20分鐘后,你會感覺更加清醒?芍@里表達的是“醒來”,英語是wake up,也可用get up。而空格前after是一個介詞,所以空格應該填ing形式,故答案為waking/getting。

【題目】閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)短文中的信息完成文后表格。在答題卡標有題號的橫線上,寫出空缺處所填單詞的正確形式。(每空一詞)
More and more Chinese would like to travel to the USA and prefer to drive by themselves. They need to know something about driving in America, which will be helpful to them and bring a happy holiday to them.
Keep Right
The traffic follows the “keep right rule”. While driving, drive on the right side of the road, which is completely different from that in Britain. On one-way, multiple lanes(車道) road, the right-most lane would be slowest and left-most lane is fastest.
Hand Signals
Though indicators(指示燈) are used for the purpose of showing which direction you are going, knowing some hand signals is very important and they are always asked in a driving test. When you want to turn right, you can put your left hand out of the window and point upward. When you want to make a left turn, you can reach your left arm out of the window and point to the left. If you want to slow down or stop, you can just point downward.
School Buses
Yellow school buses have flashing red lights and stop signs that reach out from the driver’s side. The drivers use these warning signals when letting pupils on and off. No matter which side of the road you are traveling on, if you come upon(偶遇) a school bus with its lights flashing and a stop sign used, you must stop. It’s the law. Remain stopped until the lights stop flashing or the stop sign is removed.
Using the Horn
Using horns is not common in America. Actually they are very rarely used. You may use your horn to warn walkers or other drivers of possible trouble or to avoid accidents. Do not use your horn to express anger or complain about other drivers’ mistakes or to try to get a slow driver to move faster.
Title | Traffic rules in 【1】 |
The 【2】 for learning about the rules | Many people 【3】 to drive by themselves during travelling. Knowing something about driving will 【4】 people to have a wonderful holiday. |
Keep Right | While driving on the road, you should drive on the 【5】 side of the road. The traffic rule is not the 【6】 as that in the UK. The drivers can drive 【7】 on the left-most lane than on the right-most lane. |
Hand Signals | Knowing some hand signals is of great 【8】 though indicators are used for the purpose of showing which direction you are going to. |
School Buses | The drivers of the school buses use warning signals when letting pupils get on or off the bus. It’s 【9】 the law if the drivers don’t stop their cars when they come upon a school bus with its lights flashing and a stop sign used. |
Using the Horn | Using horns is not common in America. In fact, they are very rarely used. Use your horn to warn walkers or other drivers of possible trouble or to avoid accidents instead of 【10】 anger or complaining about other drivers’ mistakes. |
