A restful night’ sleep stars with the quality of your pillows. Read on for the best memory foam pillows, backed by our testing.
The Company Store Pillow 5
If you have trouble deciding between support and comfort when pillow shopping, look no further than The Company Store Pillow. It offers the best of both worlds with its two-in-one design. One side is constructed with a memory foam that adjusts to your head. The other side is made of a gel fiber and offers tons of comfort throughout the night.
Qutool Cooling Bed Pillow 4.7
For those who are in the market for a more affordable pillow that matches pricier options, the QuTool Cooling Bed Pillows deliver on that and more. The pillow’s cooling capabilities definitely impressed our tester. However, she did find that she had to adjust the filling a few times throughout the night to maintain comfort.
Tuft & Needle Original Foam Pillow 4.5
If you prefer a softer pillow, the Tuft & Needle Original Foam Pillow is a great option that offers a cushiony feel without compromising support. While it’s on the pricier side, we think a restful night’s sleep is well worth the investment.
Marlow The Pillow 4.2
According to Jan Lefkowitz, D.C., founder and owner of Body In Balance Chiropractic, people who sleep on their side require a different amount of support in a pillow than those who sleep on their back or stomach. Marlow The Pillow includes a hidden zipper channel designed to adjust the pillow’s loft without the mess of loose filling, providing adequate volume that may suit side sleepers.

As skies are filled with millions of migrating birds, European scientists say the seasonal wonder appears to be strange: The fatter the bird, the better it flies.
The results of their study led to a theory opposite to a central one of aerodynamics (空气动力学), which say that the power needed to fly increased with weight.
For birds, obviously, the cost of flying with heavy fat is much smaller than we used to think. Researchers found that red knot wading birds double their normal body weight of 100 grams before making their twice-a-year nonstop flight between the British Isles and the Russian Arctic Distance: 5,000 kilometers.
Another study in the magazine Nature measured the advantage of flying in an aerodynamic group which allows birds to save energy by flying smoothly and quietly in the lead bird’s air stream.
Flying in groups, their heart rates were 14.5 percent lower than flying alone, according to Henri, a French scientist. The findings help explain how birds complete difficult migrations. Researchers had thought that thinner, stronger birds would have the best chance to survive.
The first study suggests that building up fat to be burnt as fuel during the migration is worth more than the energy it takes to carry the additional weight.
In the study, researchers said their team studied the birds flown at different body weights during 28 simulated (模拟的) flights. They forced a small amount of special water into the birds’ bodies so that they could measure the amount of energy burnt during the flight.
4 A red knot wading bird of 100 grams will probably weigh before making its nonstop migrating fight.
A. 100 grams B. 120 grams C. 200 grams D. 250 grams
5. During their migrating flight, red knot wading birds can save energy by flying .
A alone B. separately C. in pairs D. in groups
6. A_______red knot wading bird has a better chance to survive during its migrating flight.
A. stronger B. weaker C. thinner D. fatter
7. The best title for this passage may probably be .
A. Birds Fatten Up For Journey B. Birds Thin Down For Journey
C. How Birds Build Up Fat For Journey D. How Birds Burn Energy For Journey
C
A device that stops drivers from falling asleep at the wheel is about to undergo testing at Department of Transport laboratories and could go on sale within 12 months.
The system, called Driver Alert, aims to reduce deadly road accidents by 20%-40% that are caused by tiredness. Airline pilots can also use it to reduce the 30% of all pilot-error accidents that are related to fatigue.
Driver Alert is based on a computerized wristband. The device, worn by drivers or pilots, gives out a sound about every four minutes during a car journey. After each sound the driver must respond by squeezing the steering wheel (方向盘). A sensor in the wristband detects this pressing action and measures the time between the sound and the driver’s response.
Tiredness is directly related to a driver’s response time. Usually, a watchful driver would take about 400 milliseconds to respond but once that falls to more than 500 milliseconds, it suggests that the driver is getting sleepy.
In such cases the device gives out more regular and louder sounds, showing that the driver should open a window or stop for a rest. If the driver’s response continues to slow down, the sounds become more frequent until a nonstop alarm warns that the driver must stop as soon as possible.
The device has been delivered to the department’s laboatories for testing. If these tests, scheduled for six months’ time, are successful, the makers will bring the product to market within about a year.
8. According to the text, Driver Alert____________.
A. aims to reduce tiredness-related accidents
B. has gone through testing at laboratories
C. aims to prevent drivers from sleeping
D. has been on sale for 12 months
9. How should a driver respond to the sounds from Driver Alert
A. By sounding a warning. B. By pressing the steering wheel.
C. By checking the driving time. D. By touching the wristband.
10. When the driver gets sleepy while driving, Driver Alert ____________.
A moves more regularly B. stops working properly
C. sounds more frequently and loudly D. opens the window for the driver

The system, called Driver Alert, aims to reduce deadly road accidents by 20%-40% that are caused by tiredness. Airline pilots can also use it to reduce the 30% of all pilot-error accidents that are related to fatigue.
Driver Alert is based on a computerized wristband. The device, worn by drivers or pilots, gives out a sound about every four minutes during a car journey. After each sound the driver must respond by squeezing the steering wheel (方向盘). A sensor in the wristband detects this pressing action and measures the time between the sound and the driver’s response.
Tiredness is directly related to a driver’s response time. Usually, a watchful driver would take about 400 milliseconds to respond but once that falls to more than 500 milliseconds, it suggests that the driver is getting sleepy.
In such cases the device gives out more regular and louder sounds, showing that the driver should open a window or stop for a rest. If the driver’s response continues to slow down, the sounds become more frequent until a nonstop alarm warns that the driver must stop as soon as possible.
The device has been delivered to the department’s laboatories for testing. If these tests, scheduled for six months’ time, are successful, the makers will bring the product to market within about a year.
8. According to the text, Driver Alert____________.
A. aims to reduce tiredness-related accidents
B. has gone through testing at laboratories
C aims to prevent drivers from sleeping
D. has been on sale for 12 months
9. How should a driver respond to the sounds from Driver Alert
A. By sounding a warning. B. By pressing the steering wheel.
C. By checking the driving time. D. By touching the wristband.
10. When the driver gets sleepy while driving, Driver Alert ____________.
A. moves more regularly B. stops working properly
C. sounds more frequently and loudly D. opens the window for the driver
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个旨在于减少由于司机疲劳驾驶而导致事故的装置Driver Alert，详细说明了它的工作原理和具体作用。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“The system, called Driver Alert, aims to reduce deadly road accidents by 20%-40% that are caused by tiredness.(这个名为“驾驶员警报”的系统旨在将疲劳导致的致命交通事故减少20%-40%)”可知，Driver Alert旨在减少与疲劳有关的事故。故选A。

32. Although he said nothing, I could sense his___________.(angry). (所给词的适当形式填空)

35. There are special________________(arrange) for people working long hours. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】arrangements
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意：对长时间工作的人有特殊安排。special是形容词，修饰名词，arrange的名词是arrangement，由are可知，空格处主语用名词的复数，故填arrangements。
36. She had a bad headache and__________(admit) to the local hospital this morning. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】was admitted
【解析】
【详解】考查动词语态和主谓一致。句意：她头痛得厉害，今天早上住进了当地医院。由this morning可知，句子描述过去的事情，时态用一般过去时，她被收治入院，所以She和admit之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此空格处用一般过去时的被动语态，主语She是单数，因此空格处是was admitted。故填was admitted。
37. The other day, we brought along pieces of old bread and__________(feed) the birds. (所给词的适当形式填空)

39. Mary was so ___ (scare) of the dark that her mum gave her a torch to keep under her pillow. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】scared
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意：玛丽非常怕黑，她妈妈给了她一个手电筒，让她放在枕头下面。空格处用形容词作表语，主语Mary是人，因此用ed结尾的形容词scared修饰，意为“害怕的”，故填scared。
40. With all the evidence ________ (confirm), the hunter who shot the rare animal to death was caught. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】confirmed
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：在所有证据证实的情况下，射杀这种稀有动物的猎人被抓住了。with的复合结构，且evidence和confirm之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词表被动，做evidence的宾语补足语。故填confirmed。
