这是一篇议论文。每个人都有属于自己的生物钟。研究发现：由于某些人的睡眠周期不能与日常事务很好地协调，从而造成睡眠紊乱。有相当一部分人成了半夜不睡觉早晨起不了床的“夜猫子”。17.WhatdoestheauthorstressinParagraph1?A.Manystudentsareabsentfromclass.\nB.StudentsareverytiredonMondaymornings.C.Studentsdonotadjusttheirsleeppatternswell.D.StudentsarenotwellpreparedforclassonMondays.答案

B [主旨大意题。短文开篇就描述了“夜猫子”现象，然后从生物学角度进行分析，接下来又与“早起的鸟儿”进行对比说明。因此答案为B。]题组二 尝试模拟Passage1体裁：议论文 话题：儿童肥胖 词数：287

Heexplainedthatwhenyouaretheonlyoneinsidealift，youcandowhateveryouwant—it'syourownlittlebox.他解释说，当只有你一个人在电梯里的时候，你可以做你想做的任何事情——它是你自己的小天地。该句是复合句。从句中that引导宾语从句，该从句是复合句结构，其中when引导时间状语从句；主句中whatever引导宾语从句，破折号起解释说明的作用。Passage4体裁：记叙文

本文论述的主题是：学会接受自己的缺点，学会爱自己。19.Mostpeoplefailtolovethemselvesbecausethey________.A.areawareoftheirshortcomingsB.lackconfidenceintheirstrongpointsC.can'tmakejudgmentaboutthemselvesorothersD.havemanyattitudes，reactions，likesanddislikes答案 A [细节理解题。在第二段第三句可找到答案。解题关键在于：(1)关注题干关键词(because)与文中与此相关的关键词(That'sbecause)；(2)理解原文句意，寻找与之相近的选项。原文know...notsoattractivetomakethemfeelproud与A项最贴近。]20.Theunderlinedword“them”(Para.2)refersto________.A.weaknessesB.obstaclestogrowthC.unpleasantaspectsofoneselfD.dislikesofattitudesandreactions答案 C [词义猜测题。代词所指代的内容通常在前文中提及，与代词所在句子紧紧相连，故首先排除A、B，因为它们都是在后文才出现的。“them”所指的是上句“thoseaspectsofoneselfwhichoneisnotpleasedwith”，故选C。]21.Someonewhowantstolearntolovehimselfshould________.A.dislikehisnegativepart\nB.blamehimselfformistakesC.hidehisunpleasantpartD.acknowledgehisweakpoints答案 D [细节理解题。根据第三段第一、五、三句，可排除选项A、B、C；根据第二段最后两句推断得出正确选项D。]22.Theunderlinedword“abominable”(Para.4)isclosestinmeaningto________.A.appealingB.terribleC.fantasticD.doubtful答案 B [词义猜测题。该类题可首先判断单词的褒贬义，缩小范围。通过下文“blackandwhite”可得知“事物总是好坏共存的”，因此abominable与wonderful意义相反，而且是贬义的，B项符合文意。]23.Thepurposeofthepassageisto________.A.blamethosewhodon'tlovethemselvesB.tellustheworldwearelivinginisarealoneC.encouragepeopletolovethemselvesD.comfortthosewhodon'tlovethemselves答案 C [主旨大意题。从文中最后一段，可看出作者的写作意图是鼓励人们学会爱自己。作者通过告诉大家“事情并下总有黑白、好坏两个方面”，鼓励人们不要因为自己有缺点就不敢去爱自己，这呼应了第二段中提到的“人们不敢爱自己是因为他们知道自己有缺点”。]
