Ⅰ.阅读理解(每题3.5分,共28分)

When homework and tests keep you up late at night,you may plan to make up for your lost sleep during the weekends.But is it useful?
A study published in the journal Current Biology shows that the habit of sleeping in on weekends doesn't fix the damage that has been done by a lack of sleep during the week.Even worse, it may damage your health.
In the study, which was conducted over 10 days, 36 healthy young men and women with different sleep requirements were divided into three groups.The first group were asked to sleep nine hours a night and the second group five hours a night.The members of the third group slept for five hours on weekdays but rested as long as they wanted on the weekend.
The researchers found that people who lacked sleep ate more snacks and gained weight quickly.However, this wasn't the case for the first group.
That could be partially due to the shifting of the biological clock and changes to certain body hormones, especially hunger hormones.In order to catch up on their sleep during weekends, people in the third group would eat later as a habit.So their biological clocks shifted, which also changed the production of hunger hormones.
“The hormone leptin (瘦素) decreases appetite, while the hormone ghrelin (胃饥饿素) increases appetite,”explained US researcher Vsevolod Polotsky.“Sleep shortage causes the leptin to drop and the ghrelin to rise, so you're hungry and eat more.”
And even if they tried to sleep for as long as they wanted to during weekends, according to researchers, it was still not enough because they found it difficult to fall asleep.
Moreover, short and insufficient sleep schedules will lead to an inability to change blood sugar and increase the risk of metabolic (新陈代谢) disease in the long term.
[语篇解读]本文是说明文。发表在《当代生物学》杂志上的一项研究表明,周末睡懒觉的习惯并不能弥补工作日睡眠不足造成的损害。更糟糕的是,它可能会损害你的健康。
1.What do we know about the study?
A.Participants were divided into two groups.
B.Researchers studied 36 children and adults.
C.It lasted for more than two weeks.
D.Each group follow different sleep requirements.
D [细节理解题。根据第三段中“36 healthy young men and women with different sleep requirements were divided into three groups”可知,参与的三组人员的睡眠要求不一样。]
2.What does the underlined word “shifting” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Increasing. B.Lacking.
C.Changing. D.Shortening.
C [词义猜测题。根据下文中“...changes to certain body hormones,especially hunger hormones.(……某些身体荷尔蒙的变化,尤其是饥饿荷尔蒙。)”,并结合and可以推测,此处与下文在意义上为并列关系,画线词应与changes意思相近,所以此处指生物钟的改变。]
3.Why may people without enough sleep eat more?
A.They need to create more energy.
B.There is less leptin in their bodies.
C.They have a lower blood sugar.
D.Their bodies produce less hormones.
B [细节理解题。根据倒数第三段最后一句“Sleep shortage causes the leptin to drop and the ghrelin to rise,so you're hungry and eat more.”可知,睡眠不足导致瘦素下降,胃饥饿素上升,所以你饿了,吃得更多。]
4.What can be a suitable title for this passage?
A.Appetite Affects Our Sleep Quality
B.Sleeping in Causes Weight Loss
C.Catching up on Sleep Harms Our Body
D.Men and Women Sleep Differently
C [标题归纳题。研究表明,周末睡懒觉的习惯并不能弥补工作日睡眠不足造成的损害。更糟糕的是,它可能会损害你的健康。C项可作为文章的标题。]

Many organizations learned in the past year that remote work can be highly effective, with 83% of employers surveyed saying that the shift to remote work has been successful for their company, according to a PwC study.Now that it's clear where the work is done is not as important as people once thought, the other dimension of flexibility that workers desire for is the freedom to determine when the work is done.A 2019 study by the International Workplace Group found that 80% of workers would turn down a job that did not offer a flexible work schedule for one that did, and 76% of workers said they'd consider staying at their current employer if they could work flexible hours.
According to a Microsoft Work Trend Report, the 9to5 workday is disappearing, as the increase in remote work has allowed for more flexible hours.Employees are increasingly working asynchronously completing tasks on their own schedules, which may be different from those of their colleagues.Asynchronous work is now essential to being part of a modern, digital economy, staying competitive in the war for talent, and building a globally distributed workforce.
Tsedal Neeley, a Harvard Business School professor, says,“Companies have to profoundly rethink what it means to be part of a modern work structure.This idea of 9to5 or facetime culture is actually not helpful for a digitally advanced economy.”She highlights that underlying facetime culture is the need to monitor or see people in order to feel like work is advancing.However, this assumption that being productive requires seeing people do the work is not only limiting, but also ridiculous, as technology and automation are increasingly used to get work done and are inherently not as observable.Asynchronous work, she adds, is “a completely new mindset in line with a digital economy.”
[语篇解读]本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了远程工作方式,这种工作方式不仅使企业有良好的收益,也符合当代公司员工的需求,对员工和企业都有良性的作用。
5.What job would most workers accept according to the studies in Paragraph 1?
A.They can enjoy the flexibility of working hours.
B.They are free to decide how the work is done.
C.They can work in a remote place as they wish.
D.They work from 9 am to 5 pm during the workdays.
A [细节理解题。根据第一段中“A 2019 study by the International Workplace Group found that 80% of workers would turn down a job that did not offer a flexible work schedule for one that did, and 76% of workers said they'd consider staying at their current employer if they could work flexible hours.(2019年IWG的一项研究表明80%的员工会拒绝无法提供灵活工时安排的工作而选择能提供这一安排的工作,76%的员工则表示如果可以采取灵活工时就会留在当前的公司)”可知,大多数员工们更喜欢提供了灵活的工作时间的工作。故选A。]
6.Which of the following can best replace “asynchronously” in Paragraph 2?
A.On their own.
B.In the meanwhile.
C.With ease.
D.At different times.
D [词义猜测题。根据上文“According to a Microsoft Work Trend Report, the 9to5 workday is disappearing, as the increase in remote work has allowed for more flexible hours.(根据微软的一份工作趋势报告,朝九晚五的工作时间正在消失,因为远程工作的增加使得工作时间更加灵活)”和画线单词所在句“Employees are increasingly working asynchronously,completing tasks on their own schedules,which may be different from those of their colleagues.”可知,人们追求弹性工作时间,而不是朝九晚五的工作,他们按照自己的时间表来完成工作,这会使得他们与同事不同时地完成工作,据此推测画线词意为“不同时地”,故选D。]
7.Which of the following may Professor Neeley agree with?
A.Facetime culture is part of a modern work structure.
B.Facetime culture helps monitor the advanced economy.
C.Asynchronous work fits in well with a digital economy.
D.Asynchronous work limits the technology and automation.
C [推理判断题。根据第三段Tsedal Neeley说的话“Companies have to profoundly rethink what it means to be part of a modern work structure.This idea of 9to5 or facetime culture is actually not helpful for a digitally advanced economy.(公司必须深刻地重新思考,成为现代工作结构的一部分意味着什么。朝九晚五或者面对面文化的想法实际上对数字时代的发达经济没有帮助)”以及“Asynchronous work, she adds, is ‘a completely new mindset in line with a digital economy.’(她还说道,异步工作模式是‘符合数字化经济的全新思路’)”可知,Tsedal Neeley认为“朝九晚五”的工作模式对现在的经济是没有帮助的,而异步工作模式则符合当前数字化经济时代。故选C。]
8.What's the writing purpose of this passage?
A.To persuade people to keep up with times.
B.To introduce a new work mode to people.
C.To report social effects on public choices of work.
D.To discuss the advantages and disadvantages of remote work.
B [写作意图题。根据第二段第一句话可知,根据微软的一份工作趋势报告,朝九晚五的工作时间正在消失,因为远程工作的增加使得工作时间更加灵活;结合全文内容可知,本文主要指出数字经济时代人们期待打破朝九晚五的传统工作模式并介绍一种更适合数字化经济发展的异步工作模式。B选项“向人们介绍一种新的工作模式”符合文章的写作意图。故选B。]
