It may not be that the students who nod off at their desks are lazy. And it may not be that their parents have failed to enforce (确保) bedtime. Instead, it may be that biologically these sleepyhead students aren’t used to the early hour.―Maybe these kids me being asked to rise at the wrong time for their bodies,‖ says Mary Carskadon, a professor looking at problem of adolescent (青春期的) sleep at Brown’s School of Medicine.Carskadon is trying to understand more about the effects of early school time in adolescents. And, at a more basic level. she and her team are trying to learn more about how the biological changes of adolescence affect sleep needs and patterns.Carskadon says her work suggests that adolescents may need more sleep than they did at childhood, no less, as commonly thought.Sleep patters change during adolescence, as any parent of an adolescent can prove. Most adolescents prefer to stay up later at nigh and sleep later in the morning. But it’s not just a matter of choice –their bodies are going through a change of sleep patters.All of this makes the transfer from middle school to high school—which may start one hour earlier in the morning ---- all the more difficult , Carskadon says. With their increased need for sleep and their biological clocks set on the ―sleep late, rise late‖ pattern, adolescent are up agai nst difficulties when it conics to trying to be up by 5 or 6 a.m. for a 7:30 a.m. first hell. A short sleep on a desktop may be their body’s way of saying. ―I need a timeout.‖41. Carskadon suggests that high schools should not start classes so early in the morning because ________.A. it is really tough for parents to enforce bedtimeB. it is biologically difficult for students to rise earlyC. students work so late at night that they can’t get up earlyD. students are so lazy that they don’t like to go to school early42. The underlined phrase ―nod off‖ most probably means ― _______‖.A. turn aroundB. agree with othersC. full asleepD. refuse to work43. What might be a reason for the hard transfer middle school to high school?A. Adolescents depend more on their parents.B. Adolescents have to choose their sleep patterns.C. Adolescents sleep better than they did at childhood.D. Adolescents need more sleep than they used to.BFor a while, my neighborhood was taken ever by an army of joggers(慢跑者). They were there all the time: early morning, noon, and evening. There were little old ladies in gray sweats, young couples in Adidas shoes, middle-aged men with red faces. ―Come on!‖ My friend Alex encouraged me to join him as he jogged by my house every eveni ng. ―Y ou’ll feel great.‖Well, I had nothing against feeling great and if Alex could jog every day, anyone could. So I took up jogging seriously and gave it a good two months of my life, and not a day more. Based on my experience, jogging is the most overvalued form of exercise around, and judging from the number of the people who left our neighborhood jogging army. I’m not alone in my opinion.First of all, jogging is very hard on the body. Y our legs and feet a real pounding(追击)ruining down a road for two or three miles. I developed foot, leg, and back problems. Then I read about a nationally famous jogger who died of a heart attack while jogging, and I had something else to worry about. Jogging doesn’t kill hundreds of people, but if you have any ph ysical weaknesses, jogging will surely bring them out, as they did with me.Secondly, I got no enjoyment out of jogging. Putting one foot in front of the other for forty-five minutes isn’t my idea of fun. Jogging is also a lonely pastime. Some joggers say, ―I love being out there with just my thoughts‖ Well, my thoughts began to bore me, and most of them were on how much my legs hurt.And how could I enjoy something that brought me pain? And that wasn’t just the first week: it was practically every d ay for two months. I never got past the pain level, and pain isn’t fun. What a cruel way to do it! So many other exercises, including walking, lead to almost the same results painlessly, so why jog?I don’t jog any more, and I don’t think I ever will. I’m walking two miles three times a week ata fast pace, and that feels good. I bicycle to work when the weather is good. I’m getting exercise, and I’m enjoying it at the same time. I could never say the same for jogging, and I’ve found a lot of better ways to stay in shape.44. From the first paragraph, we learn that in the writer’s neighborhood ______.A. jogging became very popularB. people jogged only during the daytimeC. Alex organized an army of joggersD. jogging provided a chance to get together45. Why did the writer give up jogging two months later?A. He disliked doing exercise outside.B. He found it neither healthy nor interesting.C. He was afraid of having a heart attack.D. He was worried about being left alone.46. From the writer’s e xperience, we can conclude that______.A. not everyone enjoys joggingB. he is the only person who hates joggingC. nothing other than jogging can help people keep fitD. jogging makes people feel greater than any other sport.CA simple piece of clothesline hangs between some environmentally friendly Americans and their neighbors.On one side stand those who see clothes dryers(干衣机) as a waste of energy and a major polluter of the environment. As a result, they are turning to clotheslines as part of the ―wh at-I –can do environmentalism(环境保护主义).‖On the other side are people who are against drying clothes outside, arguing that clotheslines are unpleasant to look at. They have persuaded Homeowners Associations (HOAs) access the U.S. to ban outdoor clotheslines, because clothesline drying also tends to lower home value in the neighborhood. This had led to a Right-to-Dry Movement that is calling for laws to be passed to protect people’s right to use clotheslines.So far, only three states have laws to protect clothesline. Right-to-Dry supporters argue that there should be move.Matt Reck, 37, is the kind of eco-conscious(有生态意识的) person who feeds his trees with bathwater and reuses water drops from his air conditioners to water plants. His family also uses a clothesline. But on July 9, 2007, the HOA in Wake Forest, North Carolina, told him that a dissatisfied neighlzir had telephoned them about him clothesline. The Recks paid no attention to the warming and still dried their clothes on a line in the yard. ―Many peop le say they are environmentally friendly but they don’t take matters in their own hands,‖ says Reck. The local HOA has decided not to take any action, unless more neighbors come to them.North Carolina lawmakers are saying that banning clotheslines is not the right thing to do. But HOAs and housing businesses believe that clothesline drying reminds people of poor neighborhoods. They worry that if buyers think their future neighbors can’t even afford dryers, housing prices will fall.Environmentalists say such worries are not necessary, and in view of global warming, that idea needs to change. As they say, ―The clothesline is beautiful‖. Hanging clothes outside should be encouraged. We all have to do at least something to slow down the process of global warmi ng.‖47. One of the reasons why supporters of clothes dryers are trying to ham clothesline drying is that____.A. clothes dryers are more efficientB. clothesline drying reduces home valueC. clothes dryers are energy-savingD. clothesline drying is not allowed in most U.S. states48. Which of the following best describes Matt Reck?A. He is a kind-hearted man.B. He is an impolite man.C. He is and experienced gardener.D. He is a man of social responsibility.49.

Clothesline drying: a way to save energy and money.B. Clothesline drying: a lost art rediscovered.C. Opposite opinions on clothesline drying.D. Different varieties of clotheslines.四、教学设计(30分)(一)小学教师选做以fruit为主题,为小学二年级设计一份教学方案,力求体现新课改的理念,并对自己的设计意图给以评价。
