The main cause is your body clock, a time-keeper inside your body. But how to control and use your body clock? Scientists suggested having a shower before bed. Jumping into the shower around an hour before bed could mean you sleep better. A warm shower helps you relax, and then after it warms you up, your core (核心) body temperature drops. This encourages you to fall asleep more quickly and sleep more soundly. A study in 2019 said that a water temperature of 40°C to 42.4°C produces the best-quality (最优质的) sleep. After people lie down, most of them take about 20 minutes to fall asleep. However, if you have a shower one to two hours before going to bed, you will fall asleep 10 minutes earlier. Core body temperature drops naturally before you sleep, then drops further during the night. It rises again as you wake up. It is thought that taking a warm shower will speed up the drop in temperature before bed, as it brings blood to the surface of the body, and then the heat is given off. 24. What did scientists suggest people do before bed to sleep better? A. Sleep an hour earlier. B. Jump into bed. C. Have a warm shower. D. Set a time clock. 25. What does the underlined word “soundly” probably mean? A. Deeply. B. Poorly. C. Kindly. D. Slowly. 26. Which water temperature produces the best-quality sleep according to the study? A. 44.2℃. B. 41.5℃. C. 36.4℃. D. 32.4℃. C Tahiti is the largest island of the French Polynesia in South Pacific. It covers 1,042 square kilometers. The weather there is neither too hot nor too cold.

We believe that creative thinking is the falling apple of Isaac Newton, a famous scientist. We seldom notice that creative thinking is in fact a process (过程). Let’s look at what happened in 1666. Sitting in the garden, Newton watched an apple falling from a tree. He began to wonder if the same force that pulled the apple down also kept the Moon circling the Earth. Newton believed it did. He called it “gravity (地球引力)”. This story has become one of the most popular examples of “eureka” moments. When we cheer for the great discovery, the whole process of creative thinking shouldn’t be forgotten. Newton studied Maths for a long time. He always enjoyed finding new ways to solve problems. The falling apple was only the fruit of years of hard work before. It also started the train of thought that went on for the next few years. Newton began to examine “gravity” carefully. He did experiments. He studied the results and used what he learned to do new experiments. In 1687, the greatest scientific work ever written came out. The whole process of creative thinking works the same in our life. We prepare ourselves for the right moment. Once the moment comes, we catch it and then keep on working in the years to come. 51. What is “creative thinking” in the author’s opinion? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 52. What did Newton see in the garden? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 53. How did Newton examine “gravity”? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 54. When did Newton’s greatest scientific work come out? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 55. How do you understand the words “‘eureka’ moments” in paragraph 4? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 九、首字母填空 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词。 Deepseek is a technology company that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and big data to solve problems in areas like education, healthcare and finance.
