C.Both light sleepers and heavy sleepers can experience REM sleep. D.People who are woken up during REM sleep will forget their dreams.
解析:选C。推理判断题。根据第二、三段内容可知,当人们在REM(快速眼动)睡眠阶段被叫醒时会记住梦的内容,因而觉轻的人比觉重的人更容易回忆起梦境。由此可推断出二者都会经历REM阶段。
37. Which group of people are most likely to forget their dreams? A. People who are ready to write a dream journal. B.People who desire to find a solution in their dreams.
C.People who set an alarm to go off frequently during the night.
D.People who are hard to be disturbed by surrounding sounds during sleep.
解析:选D。推理判断题。根据第三段“Therefore one way to remember your dreams is to set an alarm to go off frequently during the night,as you’ll have more chances of waking during REM sleep.”可排除C项;根据第四段“If they focus on thinking about remembering their dreams...they’re more likely to actually produce a memorable dream. ”可知,当人们有意识地想要记住梦境时,通常能如愿,可排除A、B两项;而睡觉时不易被周围声音打扰的人,很少有可能在REM阶段醒来,因而更易忘记梦境。
38. It is bad for people to remember all of their dreams because________. A. that will confuse their daily thinking B.that will make people feel exhausted C.they will judge everything by sense D.they will be guided by their dreams
解析:选A。细节理解题。根据最后一段“The reason why people don’t always remember dreams is that it would interfere with waking life.An overload of information which may not be necessary could confuse your daily thinking...”可知,人要是能记住所有的梦境,储存太多不必要的信息,就会干扰其醒着时的生活和思维,因而是有害的。 39. From the last sentence, we can infer that________.
A. effective ways need to be developed to fully make use of our dreams B.people who regularly forget their dreams will never know their mind well C.scientists will give us much deeper explanations for what our dreams mean D.those forgotten dreams are stored in our bra in and will be remembered if needed
解析:选D。推理判断题。上文讲到人脑储存太多信息是有害的, 因此人们选择性地遗忘一些梦境。根据“However”一词可推测出下文要表达的是,这些被遗忘的梦境不是真的消失了。这些梦境被转存到人的潜意识当中,当人们需要时还是会浮现出来并发挥作用。因此,被遗忘的梦境仍储存在人的大脑中,当需要时会被记起。 40. The passage mainly discusses________. A. how important dreams are to health B.the reason why people forget their dreams C.the relationship between one’s dream and sleep
D.different stages of sleep and people’s changes in each one
解析:选B。主旨大意题。根据文章首段可知,本文主要向读者解释了人们为什么会忘记梦的内容。 D
Exams affect the whole family. As teenagers bury themselves in textbooks, parents have to behave like saints(圣人), ignoring doubts—is he actually studying up there, or just playing online games? Forget any practical help around the house. “He’s sitting at the kitchen table reading the TV guide,” says the mother of a 15yearold boy. “But when I ask if he can take the rubbish out, he looks very angry and says, ‘But I’m revising’.” Chloe, 16, comes from a large family and finds it is hard to revise. “I become angry easily,” Chloe says.“I camplain to my mum that there’s too much noise and too much mess.”
Beyond these practical considerations, parents are confused about how much
they should get involved. Some call for expert help. Others buy lots of practice exam papers. But you may use your skills to spur your children. Anne, 18, admits that the greatest driving force for revision is being in competition with her twin sister. My mother always says my sister is better than me.
Bribery(行贿)is not unknown.“Some parents offer their children material or cash
rewards,” says Mike Evans, the author of How To Pass Your Exams. “This may achieve the required result in some cases, but I think it does nothing for the longerterm aim, which I believe is to encourage them to take responsibility for their own personal development.”
“I deal with exam stress all the time,” says an experienced teacher. “Basically,
the pupils and I have an agreement to convince the parents that all is going well. Then
the parents back off and everything gets better.” Her fantasy solution would keep parents away for six weeks so that they don’t pass on preexam stress to their child ren. 【文章大意】 本文介绍了在孩子们备考时家长应该注意的事项。 41. According to the writer, when children study for tests,________.
