27、Many find it easy to fall asleep during a long bus trip. But why? 【1】 The first of them is a noise called white noise, which is a type of noise produced by combining sounds with different frequencies together. Buses are often crowded every day with people going to and from work. 【2】 They produce consistent noises, like the hum of tires or the purring (嗡嗡声) of the engine.
Another popular view on why it’s easy to fall asleep on buses is because of the rocking motion. “The motion of buses resembles a mother swaying a baby in her arms.” Frankie Chow, founder of Ulu Travel Agency, told The Washington Post. However, it’s not exactly the rocking movement that induces sleep. 【3】 If you were rocked to sleep as a baby, you’d associate that rocking motion with going to sleep.
【4】 Hence, long period of inactivity slows your brain activity down because there’s no stimulus to keep it awake. You just sit down and enjoy the scenery as the vehicle moves along the road. Basically, you’re away from the things that keep your mind and your physical body busy.
With a continuous stream of passengers getting on the bus, the oxygen on the bus will get thinner. 【5】 This reduces oxygen to the brain and slows it down, causing people to feel sleepy.
A．Here are a few tips to help you stay awake.
B．Fresh air is necessary for every human being.
C．On buses, you don’t move around very much.
D．According to a survey, there are several possible reasons.
E．Rather, it’s the association between rocking and sleeping.
F．Therefore, they are the perfect environment for such noise.
G．Carbon dioxide increases when there are lots of people in a small place.
28、It's believed that after a poor night's sleep, a strong coffee is the kick-start that many people need in the morning, but a new research suggests that it might be best to have a bite to eat first.
A study has found that drinking coffee first can have a negative effect on blood sugar control a risk factor for diabetes（糖尿病）and heart disease.
“We know that nearly half of us will wake in the morning and, before doing anything else, drink coffee—subjectively the more tired we feel, the stronger the coffee,” said Professor James Betts, at the University of Bath in the UK.
For their study, researchers at the University of Bath got 29 healthy men and women to take part in three different overnight experiments, with at least a week between them.
In one, the participants had a normal night's sleep, roughly from 11 p. m. to 7 a. m. , and were asked to consume a sugary drink on waking in the morning. They then experienced an interrupted night's sleep, where the researchers woke them every hour for five minutes by sending them text messages to which they had to respond—and upon waking were given the same sugary drink.
On another night, participants experienced the same sleep interruption, but this time, were first given a strong black coffee 30 minutes before consuming the sugary drink.
They found that one night of interrupted sleep did not worsen the participants' blood sugar and insulin（胰岛素）responses when compared to the normal night's sleep—although previous research suggested that losing many hours of sleep or many nights of poor sleep could have a negative effect. However, strong black coffee consumed before breakfast actually increased the blood sugar response by around 50%—suggesting that relying on coffee after a bad night to stop feeling sleepy could limit your body's ability to tolerate the sugar in your breakfast.
【1】What does the underlined word "kick-start" in paragraph 1 refer to?
A．A kind of drink.
B．A kind of habit.
C．A kind of power.
D．A kind of medicine.
【2】Which of the following is right according to the text?
A．If we feel tired， we should choose stronger coffee
B．Drinking coffee first may cause some serious diseases.
C．It shows that having breakfast first can refresh sleepy people
D．Half of people are hard to kick the habit of drinking strong coffee.
【3】What increased the participants' blood sugar response most before breakfast?
A．A cup of strong black coffee.
B．A normal night's sleep.
C．An interrupted night's sleep.
D．A normal sugary drink.
【4】How did researchers draw the conclusion?
A．By listing some examples.
B．By observing the process.
C．By explaining a phenomenon.
D．By comparing the results.
29、Last night one of our three family dogs was hit and killed by a car in front of my mother’s house. The dogs became, more or less, my mother’s children after her human children grew up and moved out and my father ran with a midlife crisis and left her. The one that was killed had bonded with my mom far more than the others. She is shocked and upset. I loved the dog, but my true sadness currently results from having to watch my mother experience another tragedy after everything she has been through in her life.
In the midst of all of this I have to sincerely applaud the driver of the vehicle, which feels wrong, but it’s not.
I’ll start by stating it was not his fault. The dog chased (追赶) a deer into the road at night. In an effort not to hit the deer with his car he changed direction suddenly, not seeing the dog, leading to its death. He could have very easily continued on his way, but he did something that I hope I never forget. In my eyes, he did the right thing. The driver pulled over, carefully wrapped our dog in a blanket he got from his car to preserve its dignity, and carried it up to my mother’s front door.
He was visibly shaking and very upset. He informed my mother of what happened and she broke down immediately. He comforted her the best a stranger could and waited with her while my sister rushed to her house. He left his information and offered assistance in any way he could.
Yes, he is the man who hit and killed our dog accidentally. What he really did was sparing my mother from coming across a horrible scene herself while searching for the dog. He had so many choices. Choices that were far easier than what he chose. He did the right thing and for that, thank you, stranger. You restored my faith in humanity.
【1】What can we learn about the author’s mother?
A．She has suffered a lot in her life.
B．She has grown up with her dogs.
C．She misses her husband very much.
D．She has three dogs killed in an accident.
【2】What’s the author’s attitude towards the dog-killer?
A．Doubtful.
B．Annoyed.
C．Critical.
D．Appreciative.
【3】What may the author agree with?
A．The driver ought to answer for the dog’s death.
B．The driver hit and killed the dog on purpose.
C．What the driver did deserves praise.
D．The driver should have continued on his way.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A．An Unfortunate Accident
B．Sadness over a Dog’s Death
C．An Easy-to-Make Choice
D．Faith in Humanity Recovered
