Ⅰ.阅读理解
Are you an early bird or a night owl? Our activity patterns and sleep cycles could influence our risk of heart disease. New research published in Experimental Physiology found wake/sleep cycles cause metabolic (新陈代谢) differences and change our body’s preference for energy sources.
Researchers from Rutgers University, New Jersey, USA classified participants into two groups (early and late) based on their natural tendency to seek activity and sleep at different times. The participants were monitored for a week to assess their activity patterns across the day. They ate a calorie and nutrition⁃controlled diet and had to fast overnight to minimize dietary impact on the results. To study fuel preference, they were tested while at rest before completing two 15⁃minute period of exercise: one moderate and one
high intensity session on a running machine. Aerobic (有氧的) fitness levels were tested through an incline challenge where the incline was raised 2.5% every two minutes until the participant reached a point of exhaustion.
The researchers found that those who stay up later have a reduced ability to use fat for energy, meaning fats may build up in the body and increase the risk of heart disease. People who are “early birds” rely
more on fat as an energy source and are more active during the day with higher levels of aerobic fitness than “night owls”. On the other hand, “night owls” use less fat for energy at rest and during exercise.
Researchers also found that early birds use more fat for energy at both rest and during exercise than night owls. Professor Steven Malin from Rutgers University said, “We found that early birds are more physically active and have higher fitness levels than night owls.
Further research is needed to examine the link between exercise and metabolic adaptation to identify whether exercising earlier in the day has greater health benefits.”
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人的活动模式和睡眠周期与心脏病风险之间的关系。
1.What does the underlined word “fast” in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Move quickly. B.Go without food.
C.Exercise regularly. D.Fall sound asleep.
√
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词前的had to可知,fast是动词;结合画线词所在句“They ate ... results.”可推知,ate ...diet和fast overnight都是“把饮食对结果的影响降到最低”的措施。由此推知,fast overnight是指“夜间禁食”,fast与go without food同义。故选B项。
2.How was the research conducted?
A.By making a survey.
B.By making contrasts.
C.By providing examples.
D.By introducing a concept.
√
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中“Researchers ... across the day.”和第三段的内容可知,研究人员根据参与者在不同时间寻求活动和睡眠的自然倾向将他们分为两组,然后以各种方式对参与者进行监测和测试,通过比较两组的结果来得出结论。故选B项。
3.What is the characteristic of the “early birds”?
A.Having lower fitness level.
B.Using less fat during exercise.
C.Consuming more fat at rest.
D.Being more active during the night.
√
解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句可知,“早起的鸟儿”休息时会消耗更多脂肪。故选C项。
4.What is Malin’s attitude to the result of the research?
A.Tolerant. B.Pessimistic.
C.Indifferent. D.Uncertain.
解析:观点态度题。根据最后一段中Malin说的话“We found ... benefits.”可知,Malin认为虽然目前的研究表明,早起和健康水平之间存在相关性,但Malin不确定这两者之间的因果关系,以及早起锻炼对健康的潜在益处。他呼吁通过进一步的研究来检验这种联系。由此推知,他对研究结果持不确定的态度。故选D项。

In his earlier years, David had amazing 5 . For example, in the eighth grade, his classmates chose some less 6 tasks while he built a full⁃sized musical instrument in a woodshop class. When David grew up, he became a director of a museum. And he was 7 in his
