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 ( 情绪 ) as humans, some experts behave 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.

If you are writing or studying, it makes very much difference where the light comes from. People who use books and pens every day have to be especially careful about the way the light shines on their work.
Every house gets its light either from daylight through the windows--which is the best to use-- or from lamps or electricity ;but whichever kind of light it is,the way it shines toward our book or work is a matter of great importance to the eyes.
Take a book ,sit with your back toward the window ,and try to read. Your shadow(影子) falls all over the page and makes it almost as bad for your eyes as if you were in a dark room.
Now turnaround and face the window. The page is in the shadow again, while the bright light is in your eyes.
Try sitting with your right side toward the window. This is very well for reading,but if you were writing ,the shadow of your hand would fall across the page and bother(打搅) you a little.
There is just one other way :sit with your left side to the window. Now everything is perfect for reading and for writing, too.
Whatever kind of light is in the room, the rule about the right to sit is always the same.

5. Which of the following is true?

AHow the light shines on our work is of much importance.

BThe way the light shines on your work makes no difference.

7. The best way both for reading and for writing is to__________.

Asit facing the light

Blet the light shine from your back

Csit with your right side towards the light

Dhave the light come from your left

It may be pointed out that warfare(战争) as practiced by man has no parallel in nature ,This is to say that within the more highly developed animal populations of this earth, there is not now. nor has there been similar destruction within a species(物种) itself. In fact ,one has to go to the lowliest forms of animal life, such as certain kinds of ants, to find anything comparable to human warfare. It is a curious fact that mankind appears to give the killing of his own kind a good reason by imaging that it is a "law of nature". There are now a lot of wrong ideas about the laws of nature, of which this is one of the most incorrect and fateful(致命的). Political beliefs have been based upon it with results that have come near to destroying human civilization. The theory that war is a biological necessity. that it is nature´s method of controlling population and believing in the survival(生存) of the strong and the elimination(灭亡) of the weak, is totally wrong and insupportable. Within the last century. when wars have been common all over the world ,the human population of the earth has almost doubled.

8. The main idea of this passage is

Awarfare is a 'law of nature'

Bwarfare is not a 'law of nature'

Cwarfare does not control human population

Dnone of the lowlier animals, except ants, practice warfare upon their own species

9. According to Sentence 2 ,which of the following is true?

AThe destruction is similar to the killing of each other within human beings.

BThere is not the similar destruction now, but it occurred before. ,'

CThere is never a time when we may see the similar destruction.

DThe destruction is now a thing of the past.

10. What does the "law of nature" mean? You can find the answer in the passage in

Athe first sentence

Bthe fourth sentence

Cthe seventh sentence

Dthe final sentence

11. The author of this passage seems to be the "law of nature".

Aagainst

Bin favor of

Cuncertain of

Dvery much interested in

根据以下内容回答题：
Earthquakes may rightly be ranked as one of the most destructive forces known to man: since reeords began to be written down, it has been estimated that earthquake-related fatalities （死亡）have numbered in the millions, and that earthquake-related destruction has been be-vond calculation. The greater part of such damage and loss of life has been due to falling down of buildinqs and the effects of rockslides, floods, fire, disease, gigantic sea waves, and other phenomena (现象)resulting from earthquakes, rather than from the quakes themselves . The great majority of all earthquakes occur Off two specific areas, along the coasts of the Pacific Ocean and from the East Indies to the Atlas Mountains. But they may, however, happen anywhere at any time. This element of the unknown has for centuries added greatly to the fear and horror sur-rounding earthquakes, but in recent times there have been indications that earthquake prediction may be possible. By analyzing changes in animal behavior, patterns of movements in the earth's surface and other unusual phenomena, scientists have shown increasing Success in predieting when and where earthquakes will strike. As a result, a worldwide earthquake-warning network is already in operation and has helped to prepare for the vast destruction that might otherwise have been totally unexpected. It is. doubtful, that man will ever be able to control earthquakes and do away with the destructiveness altogether.but as how. and why earthquakes happen become better understood, man will become more and more able to deal with their possible destruction before it occurs .
