32．（10分）Though times have changed， falling asleep in class is still a common occurrence（常事）among teenagers．

Why do students sometimes fall asleep in class？ An obvious reason is lack of

sleep． However， there are also causes for getting too little sleep．

Homework is a daily occurrence for most students， one that can take three

to four hours per night． A teenager who wants to be able to take part in

any activity besides homework must stay up late to fit everything in． Club

activities， sports， computer﹣game playing， and TV viewing． for example，all contribute

to （促成） teens having less time for both homework and sleep．Sometimes teens lack sleep

because of after﹣school jobs that are taken on to earn extra money for college， family

expenses， or simply for clothes．

Physical problems are another factor that can cause students to fall alseeo in class． For

example，

inasomnia， which may keep a student up at night， causing exhaustion（疲惫不堪）during

class hours，

is a serious problem that may require medical attention． Medical evidence also supports the

idea that

each person has a body clock that helps to decide his or her sleep pattern． Unluckily， these

body

clocks do not always work according to school timetables．

The effects of falling asleep in class can be quite serious． First of all， sleeping in class is

not a

good way to endear（使受喜爱） yourself to teachers． In addition， it is highly possible that

other

students may make jokes about those who sleep in class． However， the most harmful effect

of

sleeping in class is missing out on important points． In the long run， sleepers may end up

failing

classes．

Since teens are probably not going to deal with the problem， falling asleep in class will

probably

remain an all﹣too﹣common occurrence． It will continue until more teens find a way to

balance their

personal and social lives with school and work， while still finding enough time to sleep．

Introduction

【分析】为什么学生有时会在课堂上睡着？一个明显的原因是缺乏睡眠．但是，也有一些原因导致睡眠太少．包括家庭作业，身体问题等．

【解答】（1）but．细节理解题．根据第一句Though times have changed， falling asleep in

class is still a common occurrence（常事）among teenagers．虽然时代已经改变，但是在课堂上睡觉仍然是青少年中常见的事情．可知，两句之间是转折关系，没有though，因此用but． 故答案为but．

（2）finish．细节理解题．根据Homework is a daily occurrence for most students， one that

can take three to four hours per night．家庭作业是大多数学生每天都要做的事情，每晚可以花三到四个小时．可知，为了完成家庭作业，学生们不得不每晚学习三到四个小时． 故答案为finish．

（3）balance．细节理解题．根据A teenager who wants to be able to take part in any activity

besides homework must stay up late to fit everything in．一个想参加除家庭作业以外的任何活动的青少年必须熬夜以适应一切．可知，为了"平衡"学习与活动，他们会熬夜． 故答案为balance．

（4）enough．细节理解题．根据Sometimes teens lack sleep because of after﹣school jobs that

are taken on to earn extra money for college， family expenses， or simply for clothes．有时，青少年缺乏睡眠是因为放学后的工作需要为大学、家庭开支或简单的衣服挣额外的钱．可知， 为课外业余时间工作，学生可能没有足够的时间睡觉．故答案为enough．

（5）stop/ prevent．细节理解题．根据For example，inasomnia， which may keep a student

up at night， causing exhaustion（疲惫不堪）during class hours，例如，失眠，可能会让学生在晚上睡不着，导致上课时筋疲力尽．可知，失眠可能阻止学生晚上入睡．阻止某人做某事stop/ prevent…doing sth． 故答案为stop/ prevent．

（6）match．细节理解题．根据these body clocks do not always work according to school

timetables．人体的生物钟不总是按学校的时间表工作．可知，学生的生物钟并不总是匹配他们的学校时间表．do not 后面加动词原形．故答案为match．

（7）liked/ loved．细节理解题．根据First of all， sleeping in class is not a good way to endear（使受喜爱） yourself to teachers．首先，在课堂上睡觉并不是让老师喜欢你自己的好方法．可知，"被人喜欢"用like/love的被动形式，被动语态结构be done．故答案为liked/ loved．

（8）risk/ possibility．细节理解题．根据In addition， it is highly possible that other students

may make jokes about those who sleep in class．此外，很有可能学生们可能会对那些在课堂上睡觉的人开玩笑．可知，在上课时睡觉学生有运行风险/被嘲笑的可能性． 故答案为risk/ possibility．

（9）fail．细节理解题．根据 In the long run， sleepers may end up failing classes．从长远来看，睡觉的人可能会以上课不及格而告终．可知，在课堂上睡得过多的学生可能会错过重要的知识，导致学习失败．"在…方面失败"用"fail in"． 故答案为fail．

（10）solved．细节理解题．根据Since teens are probably not going to deal with the problem，

falling asleep in class will probably remain an all﹣too﹣common occurrence．由于青少年可能不会解决这个问题，在课堂上睡着可能仍然是一个非常普遍的现象．可知，这个问题不会得到解决，直到青少年能够管理他们的生活，处理他们的学校和工作，然后仍然有时间睡觉．问题"别解决"，故用过去分词． 故答案为solved．

【点评】做题时首先对原文材料迅速浏览，掌握全文的主旨大意．其次，细读题材，各个击破．掌握全文的大意之后，细细阅读材料后的问题，弄清每题要求后，带着问题，再回到原文中去寻找、捕获有关信息．

books are written in Chinese， including historical writings and novels， along with writings

on government and law．

五、阅读填空(共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分)

A)请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中第56-65小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

注意：每个空格只填1个单词。请将答案填写在答题卡标号为56-65的相应横线上。

Claude Monet's paintings were quite different from the art styles that

were popular in the 1870s France. Traditional artists always did their

artwork in a studio and their paintings were realistic-they looked exactly like the real world.

Claude Monet was part of a group of painters who were called Impressionists(印象派画家).

Their paintings were light and a bit fuzzy-they gave an impression of what the real world

looked like. Sometimes Impressionists worked outside, which was a very unusual thought in

their time. Impressionism received its name from an early painting by Claude Monet titled

impression, Sunrise.

Knowing that trains were interesting subjects and represented modern progress, Claude

Monet

crated a series of Impressionist paintings of trains from January to March of 1877. He worked

on

his paintings right on the train platform at the Gare Saint-Lazare, the train station on Saint

Lazare

Street. Although there were many train stations in Paris, this was the first train station built in

Paris so it had historical significance(意义).

Monet’s friend, Impressionist painter Pierre Auguste Renoir, told the following story to

his sons about Claude Monet and painting the trains. Monet needed permission(允许)to

spend time on the train platform and paint what he saw in his impressionistic style. One day

Monet dressed himself in his very best suit along with a fine top hat, a good linen shirt and a

silk tie. He appeared to be a wealthy gentleman while he really was a poor painter.

When he went towards the clerk at the train office, he presented his calling card which

introduced him as Claude Monet, Painter. He asked to see the station master. The clerk quickly

allowed this fine gentleman to enter the station master's office. The station master was also

impressed and gave Monet permission to paint on the train platform. The station master even

kept trains from leaving on time so Monet could complete a scene even though passengers

complained.

Was it all worthwhile(值得)? Monet’s train scenes turned his career into a success and

for the station master, made his train station famous until even now.

Claude Monet

◆Claude Monet was one of the Impressionist painters whose paintings

were not the 56 as the popular art styles in the 1870s France.

represented modern progress.

◆He created paintings of trains 61 January and March in 1877, at

A 59 of

painting trains

the train station with the longest 62 in Paris.

◆He dressed himself as a wealthy gentleman to win the station

master’s ___63 .

made trains leave 64 than they should do.

◆His train scenes made not only his career 65 but also the train

58 原文：Impressionism received its name from an early painting by Claude Monet titled

impression, Sunrise.（印象派得到它的名字来自于克劳德·莫奈早起的作品名字叫印象·日出）故填get its name。

59 是课文2/3/4段的总结概括，根据原文：Monet’s friend, Impressionist painter Pierre

Auguste Renoir, told the following story to his sons about Claude Monet and painting the

trains. （莫奈的朋友，印象派画家，皮埃尔·奥古斯塔·雷诺阿给他的儿子讲了有关莫奈画火车的故事）。

complete a scene even though passengers complained.（车站领导甚至不顾旅客抱怨为了能让莫奈完成一个场景而阻止火车准时离开）。将kept trains from leaving on time变成made

with a

St Mungo’s welcome pack? It could have a towel, shampoo, soap(肥皂), so a homeless

person can have a hot s 71 and a proper clean up. The difference you could make won't

end there. You see, welcoming someone into warmth and safety is just the b 72 . You

really could enable someone to change their life for good.

For Harvey, it was losing his job that led to him becoming homeless. Since Harvey was

welcomed into St Mungo’s, he has received t 73 for his health and so much more.

After he took courses in useful life skills, he recently moved into his own flat.

With your gift, you could help us offer a warm welcome to someone I 74 Harvey

．．．．

Many countries all over the world have National Parks. There are about 7, 000 National

Parks around the world. Most of them protect natural settings as well as the plants and animals

that live there, but a few are in towns and cities.

Are there National Parks in England?

There are nine National Parks in England. The first three were the Peak District, the Lake

District and Dartmoor, which were all named as National Parks in 1951. Others followed

afterwards, such as the North York Moors in 1952, the New Forest in 2005 and the South Downs

in 2010.

Are National Parks in England the same as those in other countries?

Many National Parks around the world cover huge areas of land where nobody lives, but in

England most of the countryside within them is useful for farming and other activities. As a result,

National Parks in England include places where people live and work, as well as wild and

beautiful areas where there is little sign or human life.

Why do visitors go to the National Parks?

There are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England. Visitors can walk

or cycle, following marked route, and many of the parks organize activities for families.

Are there any problems in the National Parks?

There are about 110 million visitors to the parks every year, bringing many benefits to the

areas but creating problems too. Many popular towns and villages can be swamped (充斥) by

visitors. This results in overcrowded car parks and roads choked (堵塞) with traffic. Life can be

difficult for people who live there, as more and more gift shops and cafes are opened instead of

those everyday shops; in popular areas, house prices can become too high for local people making

it hard for them to stay in the area.

Another major problem is litter. In the parks it is a particular (特别的) danger to animals.

Broken glass can also cause fires by focusing the rays of the sun. When these start in wild places,

they are much harder to control and can damage (毁坏) large areas very quickly.

How can people help?

All National Parks in England promote (倡导) the Countryside Code, which tells people how

to take care of their environment. If these rules are followed, the National Parks will be protected

and continue to give pleasure to many people for a long time.
