When you get really sleepy, you may nod off (打瞌睡) for a short time. However, chinstrap penguins (帽带企鹅) in the South Pole nod off more than 10,000 times a day! It’s really amazing!
A group of scientists studied 14 chinstrap penguins in the South Pole. They put electrodes (电极) on the penguins’ heads and necks to see their brain activities. The scientists also followed them by GPS and watched them for 10 days.
Finally, the scientists found that the penguins’ longest sleep time is 34 seconds. On average (平均), the penguins sleep 4 seconds at a time. Sometimes, only half of their brains would sleep, while the other half stayed awake. But in one day, they sleep for more than 11 hours, so they get enough rest.
The penguins sleep like this because they need to protect their eggs and babies. If they sleep too long, the babies may get hurt by seabirds and other penguins. Also, their home is usually noisy and crowded. So the parent penguins just have very short sleeps to stay alert (警觉的).

A. Seabirds. B. Scientists. C. Baby penguins. D. Parent penguins.
34. What makes the penguins have short sleep habits?
①The flying of seabirds.
②Their noisy and crowded homes.
③The cold weather in the South Pole.
④The need to protect their eggs and babies.
A. ①② B. ②③ C. ②④ D. ③④

From the moment my husband brought home a box of six chickens, our nine-year-old daughter, Sophie, hasn’t let them out of her sight. She named every one and was very unhappy when we wouldn’t let them sleep in her bed.
Sophie takes at least one chicken with her when she is out. One hot day, she wanted to take Captain Flint to the river. I wasn’t so sure about it: Could chickens swim? Sophie put a stick on her river tube for Captain Flint to stay on, and the two floated (漂流) down the river.
Naturally, Sophie dressed as a chicken in a festival and put Trixie in her arms. The reactions (反应) from neighbors were hilarious and they laughed. “Wait, is that a real chicken you’re holding?”
The chickens are teaching us about love as well as loss and sadness. Sadly, Captain Flint died after an accident. We had a chicken funeral (葬礼), said a few words about what a good chicken she was, and thanked her for the joy she brought to our lives before we buried (埋葬) her. Sophie painted a lovely picture in memory of her and has worn a cap with Captain Flint’s picture ever since.
We don’t allow the chickens in the house. But one evening, after taking online courses, Sophie was really bored in the house alone. To make her happy, we would allow one chicken to get inside the house at a time to play with her if she cleaned up at once after the visit.
The chickens brought a lot of joy to our lives. In a few short months, they have taught us to accept what we can’t change and find joy where we can. I am so thankful.
36. What happened after the chickens arrived?
A. Sophie wanted to stay with them.
B. Sophie slept with them every night.
C. Sophie never went outdoors to play.
D. Sophie refused to take online courses.
37. What did Sophie take Captain Flint to do?
A. Teach her to swim in the river.
B. Show her off to some neighbors.
C. Play with her joyfully in the river.
D. Help her drink water from the river.
38. What does the underlined word “hilarious” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Beautiful. B. Funny. C. Scary. D. Exciting.
39. Under what condition can one chicken get into the house?
A Sophie agrees to clean up. B. Sophie dresses as a chicken.
C. Sophie tries to study harder. D. Sophie takes exercise very often.
40. What can we learn from the story?
A. Chickens are the best friends. B. Children’s joy is always easy.
C. We should try to find joy in life. D. We should learn to say “thanks”.
D
Each of us has dreams and goals for our future. What makes us study and make progress each day is closely connected with our personal dreams and goals.
Why do you have dreams and goals, but you still end up with nothing? What separates (分离) successful people from the dreamers is their persistent (锲而不舍的) actions. When you learn your lessons in school, you must work hard and not give up. You will often find some of your lessons very hard. Try and keep trying, and you’ll be sure to successfully deal with any difficulty you meet with. If we have a hard lesson today, let us try our best to learn it well and then we shall be prepared for a harder one tomorrow.
This is the famous formula (公式) for success:
Dream+ Believe= Achieve
Most people have what they want “Dream” and think they can realize their dreams “Believe”. And then they do nothing. They just imagine their dreams can come true. When they get tired waiting and lose a lot, they get bored. They say angrily how terrible their life is.
I believe that if you really want to achieve your dreams and goals in life, you have to add one thing to your success formula:
Dream+ Believe+ Act= Achieve
For me, act is the most important thing for success and that’s to Take Persistent Actions (Act). If you say, “I can’t do it” and give up, you can never do anything. However, “I’ll try” creates wonders. Let’s remember that there will be obstacles in our life. We must face them bravely and solve them. Success is not something that falls down from the sky. Most successful people made their dreams come true because of their persistent actions.
Please remember: Action is the bridge that connects our dreams and goals to reality.
41. What makes people successful according to the passage?
A. Other people’s help. B. One’s persistent actions.
C. Other people’s encourage. D. One’s goals and dreams.
42. Which does the writer add to the famous formula?
A. Act. B. Achieve. C. Connect. D. Create.
43. What does the underlined word “obstacles” mean in Chinese?
A. 危险 B. 想象 C. 奇迹 D. 困难
44. The writer uses the formula “Dream+ Believe+ Act= Achieve” to ________.
A. ask readers to explain it B. show what his goals are
C compare it with a bridge D. show his idea more clearly
45. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Doing Something Valuable
B. Studying Hard and Making Progress
C. Realizing Dreams with Persistent Actions
D. Separating Successful People from Dreamers

When you get really sleepy, you may nod off (打瞌睡) for a short time. However, chinstrap penguins (帽带企鹅) in the South Pole nod off more than 10,000 times a day! It’s really amazing!
A group of scientists studied 14 chinstrap penguins in the South Pole. They put electrodes (电极) on the penguins’ heads and necks to see their brain activities. The scientists also followed them by GPS and watched them for 10 days.
Finally, the scientists found that the penguins’ longest sleep time is 34 seconds. On average (平均), the penguins sleep 4 seconds at a time. Sometimes, only half of their brains would sleep, while the other half stayed awake. But in one day, they sleep for more than 11 hours, so they get enough rest.
The penguins sleep like this because they need to protect their eggs and babies. If they sleep too long, the babies may get hurt by seabirds and other penguins. Also, their home is usually noisy and crowded. So the parent penguins just have very short sleeps to stay alert (警觉的).

From the moment my husband brought home a box of six chickens, our nine-year-old daughter, Sophie, hasn’t let them out of her sight. She named every one and was very unhappy when we wouldn’t let them sleep in her bed.
Sophie takes at least one chicken with her when she is out. One hot day, she wanted to take Captain Flint to the river. I wasn’t so sure about it: Could chickens swim? Sophie put a stick on her river tube for Captain Flint to stay on, and the two floated (漂流) down the river.
Naturally, Sophie dressed as a chicken in a festival and put Trixie in her arms. The reactions (反应) from neighbors were hilarious and they laughed. “Wait, is that a real chicken you’re holding?”
The chickens are teaching us about love as well as loss and sadness. Sadly, Captain Flint died after an accident. We had a chicken funeral (葬礼), said a few words about what a good chicken she was, and thanked her for the joy she brought to our lives before we buried (埋葬) her. Sophie painted a lovely picture in memory of her and has worn a cap with Captain Flint’s picture ever since.
We don’t allow the chickens in the house. But one evening, after taking online courses, Sophie was really bored in the house alone. To make her happy, we would allow one chicken to get inside the house at a time to play with her if she cleaned up at once after the visit.
The chickens brought a lot of joy to our lives. In a few short months, they have taught us to accept what we can’t change and find joy where we can. I am so thankful.

A. Teach her to swim in the river.

C. Play with her joyfully in the river.
D. Help her drink water from the river.

39. Under what condition can one chicken get into the house?
A. Sophie agrees to clean up. B. Sophie dresses as a chicken.
C. Sophie tries to study harder. D. Sophie takes exercise very often.
40. What can we learn from the story?
A. Chickens are the best friends. B. Children’s joy is always easy.

Each of us has dreams and goals for our future. What makes us study and make progress each day is closely connected with our personal dreams and goals.
Why do you have dreams and goals, but you still end up with nothing? What separates (分离) successful people from the dreamers is their persistent (锲而不舍的) actions. When you learn your lessons in school, you must work hard and not give up. You will often find some of your lessons very hard. Try and keep trying, and you’ll be sure to successfully deal with any difficulty you meet with. If we have a hard lesson today, let us try our best to learn it well and then we shall be prepared for a harder one tomorrow.
This is the famous formula (公式) for success:
Dream+ Believe= Achieve
Most people have what they want “Dream” and think they can realize their dreams “Believe”. And then they do nothing. They just imagine their dreams can come true. When they get tired waiting and lose a lot, they get bored. They say angrily how terrible their life is.
I believe that if you really want to achieve your dreams and goals in life, you have to add one thing to your success formula:
Dream+ Believe+ Act= Achieve
For me, act is the most important thing for success and that’s to Take Persistent Actions (Act). If you say, “I can’t do it” and give up, you can never do anything. However, “I’ll try” creates wonders. Let’s remember that there will be obstacles in our life. We must face them bravely and solve them. Success is not something that falls down from the sky. Most successful people made their dreams come true because of their persistent actions.
Please remember: Action is the bridge that connects our dreams and goals to reality.
41. What makes people successful according to the passage?
A. Other people’s help. B. One’s persistent actions.
C. Other people’s encourage. D. One’s goals and dreams.
42. Which does the writer add to the famous formula?
A. Act. B. Achieve. C. Connect. D. Create.
43. What does the underlined word “obstacles” mean in Chinese?
A. 危险 B. 想象 C. 奇迹 D. 困难
44. The writer uses the formula “Dream+ Believe+ Act= Achieve” to ________.
A. ask readers to explain it B. show what his goals are
C. compare it with a bridge D. show his idea more clearly
45. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Doing Something Valuable
B. Studying Hard and Making Progress
C. Realizing Dreams with Persistent Actions
D. Separating Successful People from Dreamers
【答案】41. B 42. A 43. D 44. D 45. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文,主要讨论了成功的关键在于坚持不懈的行动。文章通过对比梦想者和成功者的区别,强调了行动的重要性,并提出了成功的公式:Dream+ Believe+ Act= Achieve。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章“What separates successful people from the dreamers is their persistent actions.”可知,成功的人与梦想者的区别在于他们坚持不懈的行动,所以坚持不懈的行动能使人成功。故选B。
【42题详解】

【44题详解】
推理判断题。根据“For me, act is the most important thing for success and that’s to Take Persistent Actions (Act).”可知,作者认为成功最重要的因素是坚持不懈的行动,所以作者改进这个公式是为了更清晰地表达他的观点。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了Bill和朋友在海滩玩耍时因逞强游泳捡球而遇险,最终被救的故事。
【61题详解】
句意:玩了一会儿后,Bill在舒适的海滩上睡着了。fall asleep是固定搭配,表示“睡着”。故填asleep。
【62题详解】
句意:一小时后,他醒了。根据上下文时态一致,用一般过去时,wake的过去式是woke。故填woke。
【63题详解】
句意:Dave击球如此用力,以至于球掉进了海里。“so+形容词/副词+that从句”表示“如此……以至于……”,是固定结构,引导结果状语从句。故填so。
【64题详解】
句意:Bill想炫耀一下他的游泳技术,所以他决定亲自把球捡回来。by oneself表示“独自/亲自”,主语是he,反身代词用himself。故填himself。
【65题详解】
句意:游了大约十分钟后,Bill累了。ten后接可数名词复数形式。故填minutes。
【66题详解】
句意:他意识到自己不可能拿到球了。“it is/was+adj.+for sb. to do sth.”表示“做某事对某人来说是怎么样的”;根据上文“Bill became tired.”可知,Bill游累了还没拿到球,于是他认为自己不可能拿到球了,形容词impossible“不可能的”符合语境。故填impossible。
【67题详解】
句意:哦,多么奇怪的天气啊!中心词“weather”为不可数名词,符合“what+adj.+不可数名词+主谓”的感叹句结构。故填what。
【68题详解】
句意:开始下大雨。修饰动词“rain”应用副词heavily,rain heavily“下大雨”。故填heavily。
【69题详解】
句意:那时候Jim和Dave非常惊讶,因为他们看不见Bill。根据音标提示可知英文表达为surprised“感到惊讶的”,形容词作表语。故填surprised。
【70题详解】
句意:他们大声呼救。shout for help是固定搭配,表示“呼救”。故填for。

I was so tired that I fell asleep in the classes. Now I’m worried. Could you give me some advice? I would be very thankful if you could help me.
Yours,

【答案】例文
Dear Alex,
I’m sorry to know about your problems. But it’s normal for a student. Here is my advice.
As we know, health must come first, so please don’t stay up late. Go to bed early to get enough sleep. Besides, too much pressure is also bad for your health. Why not relax yourself by listening to music or playing sports? As for study, listening carefully in class and taking notes are good ways. And if you meet any trouble, you’d better ask the teacher for help. You can also work with your classmates to solve the problems.
Hope my advice can be helpful.
Yours,
Li Hua
