【題目】Cats are creatures of habit. They like to go to sleep about the same time every day and for a certain length of time. They seem to have a natural clock inside them that tells them when to sleep. Cats increase their regular sleep with occasional cat naps(打盹). Some experts feel that humans could also benefit from this habit. Cat naps help to build up energy in the body. They are also a good way to get rid of trouble! Since cats have the same moods as humans, some experts believe that people can improve their moods. People might become happier.

A number of famous people have copied cats by taking cat naps during the day. The naps would usually last from 15 to 30 minutes. Winston Churchill took cat naps. So did Presidents Harry Truman, John F. Kennedy, and Lyndon B. Johnson. These famous men were known for their energy. They were also able to work long hours, often into the night. Napping was their secret.

【1】Naps usually last _________.

A. three hours B. less than half an hour

C. forty-five minutes D. fifty-five minutes

【2】Taking cat naps _________.

A. will make person lazy and tired

B. is a bad habit

C. will make people feel better

D. can help people to become famous

【3】Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. People should take their naps secretly.

B. Cats have the same moods as people.

C. Some famous people take cat naps.

D. Some people have full energy after they take cat naps.

【答案】

【1】B

【2】C

【3】A

【解析】

試題分析：短文大意：該文介紹了打盹的好處。貓打盹能增加他們有規(guī)律的睡眠。打盹經(jīng)常持續(xù)15-30分鐘。一些專家認(rèn)為打盹能改善人的情緒，讓人變得更快樂。有一些名人經(jīng)常在白天模仿貓打盹后，他們精力更充沛，工作效率更高。

【1】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段的The naps would usually last from 15 to 30 minutes.可知打盹經(jīng)常持續(xù)15-30分鐘，因此是少于30分鐘。所以選B。

【2】C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段的some experts believe that people can improve their moods. People might become happier.可知打盹能使人變得更快樂。所以選C。

【3】A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段的Napping was their secret.可知打盹只是一些名人的秘密，并不是要建議人們都秘密的打盹。所以A項(xiàng)與文章意思不符。故選A。

【題目】Today, air travel is far safer than driving a car on a busy motorway. But still there is a danger that grows every year. Airliners get larger and larger. Some airplanes can carry over 300 passengers. And the air itself becomes more and more crowded. If one large airliner struck into another in midair, 600 lives could be lost.

From the moment an airliner takes off to the moment it lands, every movement is watched on radar screens. Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn, when to climb and when to come down.

The air traffic controllers around a busy airport like London, Heathrow may deal with 2,500 planes a day. Not all of them actually land at the airport. Any plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there. Even a small mistake on their part could cause a terrible accident.

Recently such a disaster almost happened. Two large jets were flying towards the airport. One was carrying 69 passengers from Toronto, the other 176 passengers from Chicago. An air traffic controller noticed on his radar（雷達(dá)） screen that the two planes were too close to each other. He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb. But he made a mistake. He ordered the wrong plane to do this. So, instead of turning away from the second plane the first plane turned towards it. Fifteen seconds later, it flew directly in front of the second plane. They avoided each other by the smallest part of a second. The distance between them was less than that of a large swimming pool. This is an example of the danger that grows every year.

【1】The air traffic controllers of an airport _______.

A. control all the planes flying near the airport

B. give orders to planes leaving the airport

C. only deal with the planes that want to land there

D. are allowed to handle 250 planes a day

【2】The danger of air crashes（碰撞） grows every year because ________.

A. airliners are getting larger and air traffic is becoming heavier

B. a pilot does not always hear a controller’s order

C. a controller is likely to make more and more mistakes

D. airports can hardly serve the growing number of airplanes

【3】 The example in the passage is to show that _______.

A. air traffic controllers are often careless

B. air traffic controllers should pay much attention to avoiding accidents

C. it is difficult for airplanes to avoid terrible accidents

D. two planes should not fly too close to each other

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，選擇正確答案。
B
Most English people have three names: a first name, a middle name and the family name. The family name comes last. For example, my full name is Jim Allan Green. Green is my family name. My parents gave me both of my other names.
People don't use their middle names very much. So "John Henry Brown" is usually called “John Brown”. People never use Mr., Mrs. or Miss before their first names. So you can say John Brown, or Mr. Brown; but you shouldn't say Mr. John. They use Mr., Mrs. or Miss with the family name but never with the first name.
It is different from Chinese names. In China, the first name is the family name, and the last name is the given name. For example, a man called Zhou Jian puts his family name Zhou first.
（1）Most English people have ______.
A.a first name and the last name
B.a first name and the family name
C.a middle name and the family name
D.a first name, a middle name and the family name
