Using others' content with permission.BIn 1991, Keith White was at the centre of a 14-vehicle pile-up when a truck crossed the central reservation and hit the van in which he was a passenger. White survived, but his left arm was crushed beyond repair, and he lost his memory for two years.His pilot license was removed and he could no longer follow his passion for diving. But he had been sailing since he was 16, and so, in 2004, he decided to buy a boat, fitting it out so he could sail it single- handedly. “I didn't know at that point if I could sail with one hand," he says. “But at the back of my mind I had always thought I could do an ything if I put my mind to it."Within a year, White had taken on the challenge of being the first one-armed sailor to circumnavigate (环航） the British Isles. Then he crossed the Atlantic alone in 2008. Last year he became the first sailor with a disability to circumnavigate the globe.Sailing single-handed for weeks requires mental, as well as physical, strength, especially when you are alone. So how does he do it? It's a question that makes the yachtsman (帆船运动员）laugh. “When you have seven children it's lovely to have a little time on your own! It's awesome,” he jokes. “I do a log every hour, and my diary, and I read a few books. I have very little sleep." “I'm a sociable person: I do like lots of people around. Answering emails and chatting over Faceboo k can help stop any loneliness,” he adds.When White made his first Atlantic crossing, he was disappointed to have his peace and quiet broken by his arrival on land. But, he says, he threw himself into meeting new people. In between adventures, he likes sailing with people who haven't tried it before or get involved in yacht races with friends. Perhaps the main reason for his success in adjusting to life after a big adventure, he says, is that he always has an idea for a new one in his back pocket. “It ke eps me ticking over-there's always something new to do. I just like challenges and one leads to another.”24. Why couldn't White continue his passion for diving?A. He lost his left arm.B. His license was due.C. He had a new hobby.D.His memory was poor.25.How did White spend his time at sea?A.By staying awake.B.By visiting old friends.C. By keeping himself busy.D. By attending his children.26. What mainly leads to White's successful adjustment to life after a big adventure?A. Socializing with new people.B. Scheduling new adventures.C. Coaching new yachtsmen.D. Organizing yacht races.27.Which of the following best describes Keith White?A.Creative.B. Humorous.C.Easy-going.D.Adventurous.CAn afternoon nap (午睡） is one of the joys of life, although too much napping could signal all is not well. In some cultures, people will have a daily nap-this is fine. The warming comes when people start sleeping during the daytime, when they did not before. There is certainly a good reason to believe that daytime sleepiness-as in the Alzheimer's study-can be a marker of an underlying condition.For most people, napping during the day is mainly a sign that you are not getting enough sleep at night, says Dr Neil Stanley, a sleep expert. “If you feel sleepy durin g the day, you should think about taking a nap. That is what the body needs-it doesn't need to be kept awake with caffeine, it needs sleep." The feeling to notice is “sleepiness”， he says, not “tiredness",which could be more psychological and linked to stress.So how do you nap well? The key thing, says Stanley, is how long your nap lasts. Choose either a 20- or 90-minute nap. “When you fall asleep, you' ll quickly go through the lighter stages of sleep into your first period of deep sleep. You don't want to wake up in deep sleep because that's when you wake and feel worse than you did before." Napping for 20 minutes means you will wake up before you go into deep sleep; napping for 90 minutes means you'll complete a sleep cycle.Once you factor in the time it takes to fall asleep-some people are better at napping than others but, says Stanley, “a healthy adult will fall asleep in between 5 and 12 minutes"－you can set an alarm, allowing a 30- to 40-minute period for a short nap, and up to two hours for a longer one.A good time to nap is during the body's natural dip in the afternoon, between 2 pm and 4 pm. “You don't really want to be napping much past that because then you are going to be eating into your night-time sleep,” Stanley says. The point, he stress es, is to get good night-time sleep, which would ensure you probably don't need to nap at all.28. What does an afternoon nap indicate for most people?A.Caffeine addiction.B. Psychological stress.C. Insufficient night sleep.D.Potential physical illness.29. What is the key to a good nap?A.Duration.B.Surroundings.C.Health.D.Stages.30. What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refer to?A. A 30- to 40-minute period.B. Between 2 pm and 4 pm.C.Between 5 and 12 minutes.D.A 20- to 90-minute period.31.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Why to phase a napB. When to take a good napC. What to learn from a nap.D. How to have a successful napDThere is more that comes with older age than greying hair and wrinkled skin. When humans reach their later years, they favour more established friends and their social circle is reduced.Now, for what appears to be the first time, scientists have seen the same behaviour in another species. Twenty years of observations of chimpanzees (猩猩） reveal that older males choose to hang out with their long-term friends at the expense of other relationships.The researchers studied 78,000 hours of observations made between 1996 and 2016 that followed the social interactions of 21 male chimpanzees between the ages of 15 and 58 years old. They classified the chimps' relationships depending on the amount of time they sat with others and groomed (梳毛）them. They then rated the various pairings as mutual（相互的）friendships, where both chimps seemed to enjoy the relationship; one-sided friendships, where one chimp was more keen to be friends than the other; and non-friendships, where neither chimp showed interest in the other.When the scientists looked at the patterns of friendships, they found that the older chimps had more mutual friendships and fewer one-sided friendships than younger chimps. Another feature seen in older humans was also spotted in the chimps. As the males got older, their levels of aggression (挑衅）tailed off, meaning they started fewer fights and tended to intimidate others in their group less often.The observations have left the researchers puzzled. According to an idea in psychology known as socioemotional selectivity theory, or SST, older humans prefer more positive relationships because they are aware time is running out. But many animal experts argue that chimpanzees lack the human sense of mortality (死亡），suggesting something else is driving the behaviour.Robin Dunbar, a professor of evolutionary psychology at the University of Oxford,said in humans, the decline in social circles with age is due to declining social motivation to get out andmeet people combined by lack of opportunity. In chimpanzees, as older males compete less for mates, they may focus on close, reciprocal(互惠的）relationships with trusted partners,she said.32. What do older male chimpanzees favour?A.Old friendships.B. New bonds. D. Wrinkled skin.C.Greying hair.33. How did the researchers draw their conclusion about chimpanzees?A. By turning to other scientists.B. By introducing a new concept.C.By forming relationships with them.D. By analyzing two decades' observations.34. What does the underlined word “intimidate" in Paragraph 5 mean?A.Threaten.B.Motivate.C.Defend.D.Accompany.35.According to Robin Dunbar,what accounts for declining social circles in chimpanzees?A.Awareness of time.B.Less competition for mates.C. Low motivation for socialization.D. Lack of the human sense of mortality.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。
