2．An afternoon nap （午睡） is one of the joys of life，although too much napping could signal all is not well.In some cultures，people will have a daily nap-this is fine.The warming comes when people start sleeping during the daytime，when they did not before.There is certainly a good reason to believe that daytime sleepiness-as in the Alzheimer's study-can be a marker of an underlying condition.
For most people，napping during the day is mainly a sign that you are not getting enough sleep at night，says Dr Neil Stanley，a sleep expert. "If you feel sleepy during the day，you should think about taking a nap.That is what the body needs-it doesn't need to be kept awake with caffeine，it needs sleep." The feeling to notice is "sleepiness"，he says，not "tiredness"，which could be more psychological and linked to stress.
So how do you nap well？The key thing，says Stanley，is how long your nap lasts.Choose either a 20- or 90-minute nap. "When you fall asleep，you'll quickly go through the lighter stages of sleep into your first period of deep sleep.You don't want to wake up in deep sleep because that's when you wake and feel worse than you did before." Napping for 20 minutes means you will wake up before you go into deep sleep；napping for 90 minutes means you'll complete a sleep cycle.
Once you factor in the time it takes to fall asleep-some people are better at napping than others but，says Stanley， "a healthy adult will fall asleep in between 5 and 12 minutes"-you can set an alarm，allowing a 30- to 40-minute period for a short nap，and up to two hours for a longer one.
A good time to nap is during the body's natural dip in the afternoon，between 2 pm and 4 pm. "You don't really want to be napping much past thatbecause then you are going to be eating into your night-time sleep，" Stanley says.The point，he stresses，is to get good night-time sleep，which would ensure you probably don't need to nap at all.
（1）What does an afternoon nap indicate for most people？
A．Caffeine addiction.
B．Psychological stress.
C．Insufficient night sleep.
D．Potential physical illness.
（2）What is the key to a good nap？
A．Duration.
B．Surroundings.
C．Health.
D．Stages.
（3）What does the underlined word "that" in the last paragraph refer to？
A．A 30- to 40-minute period.
B．Between 2 pm and 4 pm.
C．Between 5 and 12 minutes.
D．A 20- to 90-minute period.
（4）Which of the following can be the best title for the text？
A．Why to phase a nap.
B．When to take a good nap.
C．What to learn from a nap.
D．How to have a successful nap.組卷：29引用：2難度：0.5 -
3．In the 17th century，the Netherlands experienced a period of artistic prosperity known as the Dutch Golden Age.During this period，artists found inspiration in Northern Renaissance painting techniques，contributing to masterpieces like Girl with a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer.Known as the"Mona Lisa of the North"，this painting represents the best of Dutch art and it has become one of the most beloved paintings in art history.
Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer is famous for his paintings of contemporary Delft，a city in Holland where the artist was born，lived and died.Girl with a Pearl Earring is Vermeer's most well-known work of art.However，it did not attain international fame at its time of completion.That came about at the end of the 20th century，when it was featured in a special exhibition in Washington，D.C.
Girl with a Pearl Earring does not show a specific person.Instead，it shows an unknown girl dressed in grand clothing，who is"like a vision coming from the darkness"and"belongs to no specific time or place"，art historian Arthur K.Wheelock explained.
Vermeer is known for his ability to create shapes and forms using light rather than lines.This characteristic approach is particularly evident in Girl with a Pearl Earring.First，he would"invent"，or create an initial drawing on the canvas.Then，he made a single colored underpainting（底層色）.Next，he added color.And，finally，in order to make the piece extraordinarily bright，he would apply a thin layer of glaze（釉）to certain parts of the painting.
In addition to its fascinating context and appealing beauty，the piece is celebrated for the mystery that surrounds it."When you think about Mona Lisa，she is also looking at us，but she isn't engaging—she's sitting back in the painting，self-contained，"Tracy Chevalier，the author of The New York Times' best-selling historical novel，Girl with a Pearl Earring，points out."While the girl with a pearl earring in the painting is right there—there is nothing between her and us.She has this magical quality of being incredibly open and yet mysterious at the same time—and that is what makes her so appealing."
（1）What inspired the creation of the painting Girl with a Pearl Earring？
A．The appearance of the girl.
B．Vermeer's international fame.
C．Previous artists' painting skills.
D．Encouragement from other artists.
（2）What do we know about the painting Girl with a Pearl Earring？
A．It is set in the artist's birthplace.
B．It makes the artist famous overnight.
C．It describes a particular and famous girl.
D．It is regarded as a match for Mona Lisa.
（3）What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about？
A．The subject of the painting.
B．Techniques used in the painting.
C．The historic value of the painting.
D．The mystery behind the painting.
（4）How does Tracy comment on the painting Girl with a Pearl Earring？
A．By citing a theory.
B．By giving a definition.
C．By offering an example.
D．By making a comparison.組卷：0引用：1難度：0.5 -
4．Have you ever suddenly developed an appetite （食欲） from a brightly colored cheeseburger，or decided to step into a candy or ice cream store displaying a window full of lively shades and hues （色調(diào)） of sweet treats？If so，you are in good company.Unless we are medically instructed or strictly dieting，we are not likely to keep away from the attraction of the food by simply realizing its shortage of nutritional value.
Devina Wadhera and Elizabeth D.Capaldi-Phillips in "A Review of Visual Cues Associated with Food" recognize the impact of sensory cues （信號） on food consumption and enjoyment，and the potential they have to encourage healthy eating behavior.They cite previous research in providing some interesting examples of the visual impact of different color schemes （方案） on appetite and food enjoyment.They note that pink food on a white plate was considered sweeter and more flavorful than the same food on a black plate.Apparently，we consume with more of our senses than we realize.
So given the rainbow of colors around us when faced with so many appealing food choices，is there any way to control our appetite？Thankfully，some research says yes.
Oliver Genschow proved that when it comes to eating less，colors impact consumption.They researched the effect of the color red and found that people ate fewer pretzels when using a red plate，as opposed to white or blue，and drank less from a red cup than a blue cup.They suggest that the color red reduces food and drink intake by functioning as a stop signal.
But when it comes to healthy eating，instead of putting on a pair of sunglasses to block the attractive colors of food，consider the value of discipline.Healthy eating involves intentional choices，not mindless responses to sensory cues.And before you invest in red tableware to slim down，remember that what goes onto those plates is much more important.
（1）What may be a major reason for us to refuse eye-catching food？
A．Advertisements everywhere.
B．The doctor's instructions.
C．The rich color of food display.
D．The shortage of nutrition.
（2）What might be dealt with in "A Review of Visual Cues Associated with Food"？
A．Benefits of different color schemes.
B．Interesting examples of food service.
C．Potentials to encourage food consumption.
D．Effects of sensory cues on food choices.
（3）What does the author suggest people do in the last paragraph？
A．Avoid any colorful food.
B．Follow the sensory response.
C．Make proper food choices.
D．Wear sunglasses to block colors.
（4）What is the best title for the text？
A．How People can Control Their Appetite
B．How People are Confused by Color Schemes
C．How Colors Impact Food Attraction and Appetite
D．How Bright Colors Make Food More Attractive to People組卷：20引用：9難度：0.5

5．Often when we have an uncomfortable feeling，such as sadness，fear or shame，our first reaction is to reject that feeling.We may tell ourselves that it is a bad feeling we don't want to have.（1）
For example，some people try to push it away or use alcohol to feel better.
Certainly no one wants to feel emotional pain all the time，but when we reject our emotions，we may actually make things worse.Often emotions arise as they give us useful information about the world.（2）
An alternative to pushing away our emotions is to accept them.Accepting means that we must practice allowing our emotions to be what they are without judging them.（3）When we're happy，we have to accept not only that happiness is a short-term condition，but also that we won't always be happy.This goes for every type of emotions.
Emotions help us decide what we should stay away from and what we should approach.（4）Therefore，accepting emotions is helpful，because when we listen to our emotions，we can actually learn important information.
（5）After all，it's our instincts（本能） to avoid them.With practice，though，we can learn to accept our emotions.Meditation（冥想）and mindful breathing exercises can be helpful.
A.We have emotions for a reason.
B.Actually，it is vital to handle our emotions.
C.It isn't easy to learn how to accept emotions.
D.It also means accepting that emotions will change.
E.Then we may do something to get rid of that feeling.
F.Therefore，pushing away emotions isn't the best idea.
G.Without emotions，we would make terrible decisions all the time.組卷：0引用：3難度：0.5

25．When I was about six years old，my family and I went to Disneyland one weekend and had a wonderful day full of excitement.Little did I know that the real excitement wasn't to begin until that night.
While we watched the fireworks，I began to get an urge to go to the restroom，but I didn't want to miss the show.I overheard my sister Isabel talking to my mom，and I got closer to them to hear what they were talking about.
"Mom，I'm going to the bathroom with Lizette，okay？"said Isabel.
"Okay，"my mom replied，"but stay together.I don't want any of you getting lost."
The second I saw my sisters leaving，I didn't think twice before running after them—without telling my parents.As I followed them through the huge crowd of people，I started to lose sight of them.I began to panic as I scanned the crowd for them.Crazy thoughts ran through my head like "What if I never see my family again？"
I gave up trying to find my sisters and tried to get back to my family，but I was completely mixed up.After searching for what seemed like forever，I couldn't hold back my tears，and I started crying like I had never cried before.
"Mommy!"I cried out.But everyone around me was too caught up by the fireworks to pay any attention to me.
I tried to stop the scary thoughts that were going through my head and started running as fast as I could …anywhere…everywhere.I was going crazy.I'm only six，and I've gotten lost."What have I done？How could I have been so dumb to run off without telling anyone？"I thought.
With my face wet from tears，I kept running，pulling at people's pants and crying，"Mommy!"I was hoping，wishing，that one of these adults would be one of my parents.
