Researchers from Aachen University in Germany believe that about 10 percent of people can be classified as “morning people”, who feel more active and function best in the morningAround 20 percent are night owlspeople who naturally tend to stay up late and are more tired during the dayAnd the rest of us fall somewhere in between, according to New Scientist.Previous studies have suggested that early risers are more likely to be happy and healthy while night owls experience worse sleep as well as more depression and anxiety during the day.For a long time, scientists have been trying to find out what causes the differences between the twoA new study suggests that it isnt just peoples habitsearly risers and night owls actually have different brain structures.Led by Jessica Rosenberg at Aachen University, researchers scanned the brains of 16 early risers, 23 night owls and 20 people with intermediate sleeping hoursThey found that the brains of night owls had less “white matter”which speeds up the transmission(传输) of nerve signals in brain areas associated with depressionAs you know, after people fly in an airplane from one time zone to another, they often suffer from a confused and tired feeling called “jet lag” because their body clocks are out of sync(不同步的) with the new time zoneIt usually takes about a week for their bodies to adjust to the new timeBut night owls always have difficulty syncing their bodies to the right time due to their brain structure“Its like they suffer from permanent jet lag,” said Rosenberg.The good news is that it is possible for night owls to turn themselves into morning peopleAccording to the researchers, night owls should try to spend as much time in the sunlight as possible and reduce their exposure to artificial light at night to force their body clocks to shift to a more normal rhythm.71What does the article mainly discuss?AHow to turn early risers into night owls.BHow our habits influence our sleep patterns.CWhat causes the differences between early risers and night owls.DWhy early risers are happier and healthier than night owls.72We can learn from the article that night owls _.KS5UKS5UAmake up almost a third of the human populationBhave more white matter in their brains than other peopleCare more used to artificial night than sunlightDhave body clocks that are not in agreement with the actual time73Jessica Rosenbergs research suggests that _.Aprevious studies about night owls are wrongBnight owls are affected by jet lag more strongly than othersCwhite matter helps our brains work more efficientlyDbrain structure might determine peoples chances of suffering from depression74According to the last paragraph, _.Anight owls have to give up their unhealthy life habitsBnight owls can learn to adjust their body clocksCthere is little we can do to ease the trouble of night owlsDscientists are planning research on how to change night owls brain structures75What would be the best title?ANight Owls Have “Jet leg” BEarly Riser Have “Jet leg”CWho Are Night owls DWho Are Early RisersC(CBS/AP)Lawyers for the stepfather of an 11-year-old girl tried to convince Massachusetts highest court on Tuesday that he should have a say on whether his stepdaughter is removed from life supportIf the girl dies, Jason Strickland could face a murder charge for illegally taking part in the beating that left her comatose(昏迷).Jason Strickland is asking the court to overturn a juvenile(少年) court judges decision allowing the state to remove Haleigh Poutre from her ventilator (呼吸机) and feeding tube.Haleigh Poutre was hospitalized in September after her stepfather and adoptive mother kicked her and beat her nearly to death with a baseball bat.Within two weeks of being charged, the adoptive mother, who was also Haleighs aunt, was found dead.Strickland is free on bail(保释) while awaiting trial.Sharyn Alfonsi from CBS reports that the girls biological mother, Allison Avrett, gave up her parental right years ago and now she has no say in what happens to Halleighbut she wants life support to be relieved.“I want her to rest,” Avrett told Alfonsi“Being kept alive like that, its not a life.”The state Department of Social Services wants to remove her from life support, according to opinions from her doctors that the girl is in a permanent vegetative（植物人状态的） stateAnd Strickland could face a murder charge if she dies.Both of Haleighs doctors agree that she should be removed from the ventilator, but they cant decide whether her feeding tube should be disconnectedThey have said that with her feeding tube alone, Haleigh could live as long as two months.Haleigh was adopted by her aunt about five years ago her biological mother moved to Virginia with a new boyfriendJason Strickland never formally adopted the girl, but is arguing that as the stepfather, he should be a de facto parent and allowed to have a say in whether she lives or dies.76CBS/AP are most probably _.Atwo news reporters Ba newspaper and a news reporterCa news agency and a newspaper Dtwo news agencies77Which of the following is the right order of the events in the story?aHaleigh was adopted by her auntbHaleigh became comatose.cHaleigh

Haleighs stepfather demand that her life support not be removed?ABecause he might be accused of murder if she died.BBecause she might be comatose if the life support was removed.CBecause Haleighs biological mother hopes so too.DBecause he hopes that Haleigh will live with him.79The underlined word “de facto” most probably means _.Aexisting in fact Bthe second Cthe only existing Dadmitted by law80The passage is mainly about _.Athe stepfather of a girl Bthe adoptive mother of a girlCa girl beaten nearly to death Da juvenile court judges decision第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Tuy Sereivathana was
