Does your sense of hearing, smell, and touch become better after you go blind? In the past, some philosophers(哲学家) said that blind people had "supernormal” powers of hearing and touch. Today, it's common in films to have a blind character with some kind of super-sense ability: one of the most famous is the blind superhero Daredevil, who hears birds flying miles away from him, and follows bad people with his super smell.

So maybe it's no wonder that this is a common question, according to L. Penny Rosenblum, the Director of Research for the American Foundation for the Blind. But, she says, the answer is no: "People who are blind do not have better hearing. Since they cannot depend on their eyes as the sighted people, they use hearing to compensate for the loss of sight.”

In other words, a blind person's senses aren't better than a sighted person’s. But a person feeling the world mostly through hearing and touch is better at simply noticing and identifying(辨别) different sounds and sensations(感觉). Having a walk in a busy street, a sighted person notices the bright. flashing signs on nearby shops, the colors of people's clothing and the size and shape of the buildings ahead of them-all of these tell them where they are, how fast they’re going, and what's coming ahead. "On a walk down a city sidewalk, a blind person would probably notice the sounds of traffic( cars, trucks, motorcycles), the footsteps and conversations of the people, and the sounds from the buildings, says Deborah Atein, of the National Federation of the Blind of Illinois. Those sounds and textures achieve the same thing for someone who's blind as colors and lights do for a sighted person.

Think of it this way: if you're sighted and have ever felt your way to the bathroom in the middle of the night, you might have noticed that all the sounds and sensations of, the house seem much more noticeable in the dark, without your eyes distracting(分散注意力) you- the ticking clock in your room, the noise of the fridge through the hall. The cold tile(地砖)under your feet tells you that you’re in the bathroom. Finally, you go back to your bed successfully. You've guided all the way back without much help from your eyes——and without super-senses!

27. The words "compensate for" in Paragraph 2 probably mean “              “.

A.send for  B. make up for   C. stand for  D. set off for

28. Which of the following can help a blind person walk down a city sidewalk?

A. The conversations of the people.   B. The shape of the buildings

C. The signs on nearby shops    D. The colors of traffic lights

29. According to the passage, the writer probably agrees that          .

A.sighted people's senses become worse after going blind

B. sighted people guide the way with the help from hearing

C. blind people's senses are much better than sighted people's

D. blind people have no super powers of hearing and touch

Scientists know that our weight, mental health and immune(免疫) system are connected to our sleep habits. So are your grades——to a surprising degree, a new study finds. It showed that sleep caused for nearly one-fourth of the difference among students' grades in a class. So even I you spend hours studying for a test but get too little and Inconsistent(不一致的)sleep, you might still do poorly, And boys with poor sleep habits appeared to suffer(遭受)most.

Jeffrey Grossman, a scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge wanted to test sleep in the real conditions. People's sleep timetables are often disordered and unpredictable. He wanted to see if the sleep connects performance even when a study was done with people who kept regular timetables at home. To find out. his team turned to Fitbits. These wristbands can follow how long people sleep and how often they wake up.

The researchers invited 100 around 18-year-old students. Each got a Fitbit to wear all term long. At the end of the term, the scientists looked at the students' sleep data(数据) They paid attention to patterns(模式) in the days and weeks before exams. They then compared those patterns to the students' test scores. The results showed the importance of sleep for students.

As expected, teens who stirred (微动)a lot during the night were likely to perform poorly. The same went for those who didn't get enough sleep. But how much someone slept the night before an exam didn't affect that person’s grade. So, is pulling an all-nighter before the big test okay? No, it turns out. That's because there was a third important factor: consistency of sleep a week and even a month before an exam. That means "a student who sleeps seven hours at night, every night, will do better than a student who sleeps 7. 5 hours one night and 6.5 another night,” Grossman says. That was true even when both students got the same amount and quality (质量)of sleep.

Sleep length, quality and consistency together caused 24. 4 percent of the difference among the students' test grades. And these factors appeared especially important for boys. Grossman's team is not sure why. But boys who didn’t get enough sleep or regular sleep were likely to do worse on an exam than girls who had similar sleep patterns.

Helping students get more sleep depends in part on schools starting their days later. But it also comes down to students making sleep a higher priority(优先权). That may require getting more sleep and limiting late evening use of phones and other screens. Even with extracurricular activities, schoolwork and a social life, you need to get your sleep.

30. The researchers used Fitbits to              .

A. help the students sleep well   B. predict the students' sleep length

C. improve the students' grades   D. collect the students' sleep da

31. What can we learn from the research?

A. Students with the same quality of sleep have no difference in grades

B. Students who sleep for more hours are likely to have higher grades

C. Boys with poor sleeping habits appear to suffer more than girls

D. Staying up before a big test can make a good result in grades.

32. According to the writer, the students should          .

A. put sleep in the first place

B. wear wristbands to keep health

C. pay more attention to test scores

D. compare sleep patterns to their performance

33. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. Sleep: Is quality important?   B. Sleep: Does it influence grades

C. Sleep: Is 7. 5 hours enough?   D. Sleep: Does it depend on schoolwork?

四、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。(共10分,每小题2分)

British people are famous for saying sorry in almost every situation. They say “Sorry” for asking a question, for their bad weather or because they sneezed( 打喷嚏).

British people pride themselves on their polite manners towards one another in public. As a result, they use the word "sorry" quite a lot-even when they don t really mean it! Usually,if they want to ask a stranger for the time, they would start by: saying, ”Sorry to bother(打扰)you. Do you know what time it is?” If they are five minutes late for a date, they would generally greet the person by saying, “Sorry, I'm late!”

That they say sorry does not only mean they feel sad for someone else because of their problems or bad luck. In the dictionary, “sorry”. also means feeling regret because they have done something wrong. And now, think about this. Normally, when they want to ask a stranger a question, they start with "Sorry to bother you. In this situation, they aren't saying sorry because they feel sad for that person or because they feel regret.

In the British culture, saying sorry, in general, is a way to be polite, especially to people who they don't know very well. Besides, it also, can bring them other benefits in their daily life. In a recent experiment, an actor asked different strangers on a rainy day if he could use their mobile phones to make a call. When he asked one group of strangers and asked them without saving sorry first, he was only 9% successful in borrowing their phones. However, when he said sorry to another group of strangers about the bad weather before asking if he could use their mobile phones, he was 47% successful.

34. Do British people say sorry for asking a question?

35. Why do British people often use the word sorry: quite a lot?

36. What do British people say if they are five minutes late for a date?

37. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

38. What do sorry mean to British people?
