(2022·河南宋基信阳实验中学高三摸底考试)Let's do some sleep math. You lost two hours of sleep every night last week because of a big project due on Friday. On Saturday and Sunday, you slept in, getting four extra hours. On Monday morning, you were feeling so bright eyed, and you only had one cup of coffee, instead of your usual two. But don't be cheated by your energy: You're still carrying around a heavy load of sleepiness, or what experts call “sleep debt”—in this case something like six hours, almost a full night's sleep.
Sleep debt is the difference between the amount of sleep you should be getting and the amount you actually get. It's a deficit (缺乏) that grows every time we skim some extra minutes off our nightly sleep. “People accumulate (积累) sleep debt gradually without being noticed,” says William C.Decent, founder of the Stanford University Sleep Research Center. Studies show that such short term lack of sleep leads to a foggy brain, worsened vision, and trouble remembering. Long term effects include obesity (肥胖) and heart disease.A survey by the National Sleep Foundation reports that we're losing one hour of sleep each night—more than two full weeks of sleep every year.
The good news is that, like all debts, with some work, sleep debt can be repaid. Adding an extra hour or two of sleep a night is the way to catch up on sleep debt. For the long term lack of sleep, take it easy for a few months to get back into a natural sleep pattern. Go to bed when you are tired, and allow your body to wake you in the morning (no alarm clock allowed). You may find yourself catatonic (有紧张感的) in the beginning of the recovery cycle: expect to have ten hours shut eye per night. As the days pass, however, the amount of sleeping time will gradually decrease.
So earn back that lost sleep—and follow the orders of your inner sleep needs, and you'll feel better. “When you put away sleep debt, you become a superman,” says Stanford's Dement, talking about the improved mental and physical abilities that come with being well rested.
1.The example of sleep math is used to show .
A.in what case you build up a sleep debt
B.why you need six hours sleep every night
C.why you are full of energy even when you don't have enough sleep
D.in what case you should drink coffee to keep energetic
2.The author begins Paragraph 2 with .
A.an example B.a definition
C.an argument D.a discussion
3.By saying the underlined sentence in the last paragraph, Dement means .
A.you can get enough sleep with the superman's help
B.you can achieve your goals with a sleep debt
C.you will be clever if you accumulate sleep debt
D.you will be in a good state with enough sleep
4.What might be the most suitable title for the passage
A.How can you keep energetic?
B.Can you have a good sleep
C.What is sleep debt?
D.Can you catch up on sleep debt

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了我们是如何积累自己的睡眠债务的,以及长期这样下去会对我们的身体健康造成的影响和弥补睡眠债务的方法。
1.A 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Let's do some sleep math.(让我们做一些睡眠数学。)”和“You're still carrying ... a full night's sleep(你仍然背负着沉重的睡意,或者专家所说的‘睡眠债务’——在这种情况下,大约6个小时,几乎是一整晚的睡眠)”可推知,睡眠数学的例子用来说明在什么情况下,你会积累睡眠债务。故选A。
2.B 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Sleep debt is ... you actually get.(‘睡眠债务’指的是你应该得到的睡眠时间和你实际得到的睡眠时间之间的差额。)”可知,本段是以sleep debt的定义开始的。故选B。
3.D 句意猜测题。根据画线部分所在句“‘When you put away ... being well rested.(‘当你摆脱了睡眠债务,你就成了一个超人,’斯坦福大学的Dement(德门特)说,他谈到了良好休息带来的精神和身体能力的提高。)”可知,Dement认为睡眠充足了,你的精神状态才会好。故选D。
4.D 标题判断题。根据第三段前两句和最后一段第一句“So earn back that ... feel better.(所以,弥补你失去的睡眠,并遵循你内心的睡眠需求,你会感觉更好。)”及上文介绍的睡眠债务的含义、长期这样下去会对我们身体健康造成的影响和怎样弥补睡眠债务可知,D项(你能弥补睡眠不足吗?)是本文的最佳标题。故选D。

(2021·河南郑州市高三三模)It is so easy to get comfortable and stuck in our comfort zones. We know what we like; we know what to expect; we know where we'll do well and we stay there. Outside of this zone are risks and fears. 1
This works sometimes. However, while the zone outside of where we are comfortable might be scary and risky, it is also the area of growth. 2
3 Over two days, we worked with the group and helped them see how they were limiting themselves, their lives and their careers by unknowingly staying with what they knew and where they were comfortable. We put them in awkward situations, asked them tough questions and helped them feel ill at ease until they got more comfortable with that. 4 At last they identified what they wanted was out of their comfort zones.
I saw then, as I have seen so many times in my own life and in the lives of others, that there is so much possibility when we stretch and try. We may need to build up to it. We may need to gather support and encouragement. 5 But when we do, and when we reach beyond where we usually comfortably stay, we find ourselves in a zone of opportunity (机会). We find so much of what we want.
Take at least two actions that put you outside of your comfort zones and get you closer to what you want.
A.Opportunity zones are where dangers lie.
B.So, we continue where we are with what we know.
C.We may need to take steps to get closer to our goals.
D.However, most people are used to staying in their comfort zones.
E.It is our opportunity zone, with so much potential and possibility.
F.We pushed them beyond where they were both physically and mentally.
G.We once designed a program to push people to step out of their comfort zones.

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章解释了舒适圈的定义和走出舒适圈的必要性。
1.B 根据设空处上文“Outside of this zone are risks and fears.(这个区域之外是风险和恐惧。)”可知,设空处应讲因为舒适圈外的区域很危险,所以人们会继续待在舒适区。B项(所以,我们继续待在我们所了解的地方。)承接上文。故选B。
2.E 根据设空处上文“However, while the zone outside of where we are comfortable might be scary and risky, it is also the area of growth.(然而,尽管我们感到舒适的区域之外可能是可怕的、有风险的,但它也是成长的区域。)”可知,设空处应讲舒适圈之外更容易成长。E项(这是我们的机会区,有如此多的潜力和可能性。)承接上文。故选E。
3.G 根据设空处下文“we worked with the group and helped them see how they were limiting themselves, their lives and their careers by unknowingly staying with what they knew and where they were comfortable(我们和这个小组一起工作,帮助他们认识到,不知不觉地待在熟悉且感到舒适的地方是如何限制了自身以及生活和职业的)”可知,设空处应与把人们推出舒适圈的项目有关。G项(我们曾经设计了一个项目来推动人们走出他们的舒适区。)引出下文。下文中的“the group”指G项中的“people”。故选G。
4.F 根据设空处上文“We put them in awkward situations, asked them tough questions and helped them feel ill at ease until they got more comfortable with that.(我们把他们放在尴尬的环境中,问他们尖锐的问题,让他们感到不自在,直到他们适应了。)”可知,设空处应归纳总结项目的实施方式。F项(我们把他们推出身体和精神的舒适圈。)承接上文。故选F。
5.C 根据设空处上文“We may need to build up to it. We may need to gather support and encouragement.(我们可能需要慢慢来。我们可能需要获得支持和鼓励。)”可知,设空处应讲我们可能需要如何做。C项(我们可能需要采取措施来更接近我们的目标。)承接上文。故选C。

语法填空1
The makeup of British families has changed __1__ (rapid) over the last two hundred years. The traditional family structure (结构)before the Industrial Revolution was the extended family in __2_ _ three generations lived under one roof. The early twentieth century saw the __3_ _(grow) of the nuclear family—parents and a small number of __4_ _(child) would form a single family. In the last thirty years, however, the UK __5__ (see) a breakdown of the typical nuclear family.
Increased divorce rates, later marriage and a move away from marriage altogether have resulted __6__ new forms of family; divorced parents will develop new relationships and take their kids with them. A survey __7__(conduct) by researchers shows that over 50% of kids are now born to parents who are not married.
Some minority communities stick to the extended family structure, and it is common __8__ (find) that three generations are living together in an Indian family. They say that apart from strengthening traditional family ties,__9__ can provide security for older people when they cannot work anymore. They believe that the phenomenon of other old people living in care homes __10__(indicate) that many old people in the wider community are abandoned in their old age.
本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了英国家庭组成结构在过去两百年所发生的变化。
1.rapidly 解析:考查副词。句意:在过去的200年里,英国人的家庭组成结构发生了快速的变化。在英语中通常使用副词修饰形容词、副词、动词或整个句子。本句中changed是动词,要用副词修饰。所以要填 rapidly。
2.which 解析:考查定语从句。句意:在工业革命前英国传统的家庭结构是三代居住在一起的大家庭。本句是一个定语从句,应该使用关系代词指代先行词family,并在定语从句中作介词in的宾语,用关系代词which。所以要填which。
3.growth 解析:考查名词。句意:二十世纪初期见证了核心家庭的成长。句中saw是及物动词,后接名词作宾语。growth是动词grow的名词形式。所以要填growth。
4.children 解析:考查名词复数。句意:父母和孩子们形成了单个的家庭。child是可数名词,其前有a number of修饰时要用复数形式。所以要填children。
5.has_seen 解析:考查动词时态。句意:在过去三十年里,英国见证了核心家庭的破裂。根据时间状语In the last thirty years可知要用现在完成时态,且主语the UK是单数形式,助动词用has。所以要填has seen。
6.in 解析:考查固定搭配。句意:越来越高的离婚率、晚婚和完全脱离婚姻的现象导致了新的家庭形式。result in意为“引起, 导致”,是固定搭配。所以句中要填in。
7.conducted 解析:考查过去分词。句意:研究人员进行的一项调查显示超过百分之五十的孩子是由未婚的父母所生的。句中名词survey与conduct之间是动宾关系,要用过去分词短语conducted by researchers作定语。所以要填conducted。
8.to_find 解析:考查动词不定式。句意:在印度家庭里三代人生活在一起是很常见的。句中it是形式主语,真正的主语是动词不定式to find that three generations are living together in an Indian family。所以要填to find。
9.it 解析:考查代词。句意:他们说除了加强传统家庭联系以外,大家庭还可以给不再工作的老人提供安全。句中it指代前文中提到的the extended family structure。所以要填it。
10.indicates 解析:考查主谓一致。句意:他们认为老人生活在护理中心说明很多社区里的老人在年老的时候被抛弃了。主语phenomenon是单数形式,且表示一般事实,谓语动词也应用单数形式。所以要填indicates。

[2023·湖南省长沙市一模]When I was 13, I climbed my first mountain. I was overweight at the time and out of breath when I reached the peak. But I loved the challenge of it. Soon I'd climbed nearly 100 peaks. My parents were happy I'd finally found my favorite hobby.
I often go climbing with my friend Mel Olsen. Two years ago, on December 30, when I was 16, she and I drove to Oregon to tackle 11, 240 foot Mount Hood.
It's safer to start winter climbs at night when there's less risk of the sun melting the snowpack. That day, we started at 3 a.m., following the paths alongside the ski runs. The temperature was about 14 degrees, and we wore layers we could easily remove, knowing the climbing would make us warm.
After about five hours, we reached Devil's Kitchen, a plateau (高原) at about 10,000 feet, just before the final push to the top. By this point, the wind conditions were very unpleasant. My exposed skin felt as though it were burning. Some other climbers decided to turn back, but Mel and I went ahead. We had ice axes (斧子), helmets and crampons (带钉铁鞋底). We were prepared for the climb.
The trail we followed grew narrower and steeper. At around 9 a.m., we reached an ice step. It was about three or four feet tall and sloped at a 75 degree angle. I volunteered to go first. I placed my left foot on the ice step.
You gain a sense of the ice when you stick your ax and crampons into it, and it felt good. Confident that I was safe, I put my full weight on it. Suddenly I heard a crack, and a whole thick piece of ice broke off the step, right under my foot.
In an instant, I fell backward. I could hear Mel calling my name as I fell down, bouncing off the rock face and rolling down the mountain as if I were a character in a video game. I remember thinking, “That is it. You're done.”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
I stuck out my arms and legs, grabbing at anything._______________________________
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
With Mel by my side I'd been lying on the icy rock for four hours by the time the rescuers reached me.

I stuck out my arms and legs, grabbing at anything. But it didn't help!/(That slowed my rolling down the mountain, but I was still sliding.) After a few heart in mouth seconds, I came to a stop on an icy rock. My clothes were shredded, my helmet was broken and my face was bloodied from cuts and scratches. Worse still, I was suffering from a sharp, unbearable pain in my legs. Fear gripped me and I was sinking to the depths of despair when Mel made her way down. Seeing me unable to move, she yelled for help, and with the help of several adult climbers she called the Mountain Rescue.
With Mel by my side I'd been lying on the icy rock for four hours by the time the rescuers reached me. They strapped me into a sled and pulled me down the mountain. I have a pretty high pain tolerance, but I screamed with each bounce. At the bottom of Mount Hood, I was loaded into an ambulance and taken to a hospital, where my broken legs were treated. I didn't get released until one month later. It's true that the fall brought me pain and made me more cautious. But the experience also made me grow as a person with growing faith in friendship and greater enthusiasm for my favorite hobby.
【语篇解读】 本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者在和好友梅尔一起登山时遭遇意外,好友不离不弃,解救作者的故事。
【详解】段落续写:
第一段首句内容“我伸出胳膊和腿,去抓任何东西。”可知,第一段可描写作者受伤,疼痛难忍、紧张害怕,好友大声呼救,作者最终获救。
②由第二段首句内容“救援人员赶到我身边时,我已经在冰冷的岩石上躺了四个小时,在此期间,梅尔一直陪在我身边。”可知,第二段可描写作者被送往医院接受治疗以及自己从这次经历得到的教训以及对友谊的新认识。
2.续写线索:作者受伤——疼痛难忍、紧张害怕——好友大声呼救——作者获救——好友一直陪伴——入院治疗——教训以及感悟

[2023·湖南省长沙市一模]When I was 13, I climbed my first mountain. I was overweight at the time and out of breath when I reached the peak. But I loved the challenge of it. Soon I'd climbed nearly 100 peaks. My parents were happy I'd finally found my favorite hobby.
I often go climbing with my friend Mel Olsen. Two years ago, on December 30, when I was 16, she and I drove to Oregon to tackle 11, 240 foot Mount Hood.
It's safer to start winter climbs at night when there's less risk of the sun melting the snowpack. That day, we started at 3 a.m., following the paths alongside the ski runs. The temperature was about 14 degrees, and we wore layers we could easily remove, knowing the climbing would make us warm.
After about five hours, we reached Devil's Kitchen, a plateau (高原) at about 10,000 feet, just before the final push to the top. By this point, the wind conditions were very unpleasant. My exposed skin felt as though it were burning. Some other climbers decided to turn back, but Mel and I went ahead. We had ice axes (斧子), helmets and crampons (带钉铁鞋底). We were prepared for the climb.
The trail we followed grew narrower and steeper. At around 9 a.m., we reached an ice step. It was about three or four feet tall and sloped at a 75 degree angle. I volunteered to go first. I placed my left foot on the ice step.
You gain a sense of the ice when you stick your ax and crampons into it, and it felt good. Confident that I was safe, I put my full weight on it. Suddenly I heard a crack, and a whole thick piece of ice broke off the step, right under my foot.
In an instant, I fell backward. I could hear Mel calling my name as I fell down, bouncing off the rock face and rolling down the mountain as if I were a character in a video game. I remember thinking, “That is it. You're done.”
