Rising temperatures driven by the climate crisis are cutting the sleep of people across the world, the largest study to date has found.
The researchers used data from sleep-tracking wristbands(手环)used by 47,000 people over 7 months and across 68 countries. The analysis revealed that due to increasing night-time temperatures, the average global citizen is losing 44 hours of sleep a year.
However, lost sleep affects some groups much more than others. The sleep loss per degree of warming is about a quarter higher for women than men, twice as high for those over 65 years old and three times higher for those in less affluent nations, where people have less access to cooling features.
Previous studies have shown that rising temperatures damage health, including increasing heart attacks, mental health crises, and accidents and injuries. Poor sleep has also been shown to have these effects, and the researchers say their new study suggests that disturbed sleep may be a key mechanism by which heat causes these health impacts. The researchers say their data shows no signs of people being able to adapt to hotter nights.
“In this study, we provide the first planetary-scale (世界范围的) evidence that warmer than average temperatures cut human sleep,” said Kelton Minor, who led the research. “It’s very likely the effect is more serious.” Minor added that the research had important implications for policymakers, who need to ensure cities, towns and buildings are well adapted to heat in order to reduce the health impacts.
The data used in the study came mainly from richer nations. The wristbands
also tended to be worn by people less prone(易于遭受)to sleep disturbance by warmer temperatures. “Lower-income people are underrepresented in the data and we’re well aware of that,” said Minor. He said more research was needed, particularly in places that are already among the hottest in the world.
56. Which is NOT mentioned about the study in paragraph 2?
A. How the data was collected.
B. How many respondents were involved.
C. The duration of the study.
D. The purpose of the study.
57. What does the underlined word “affluent” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Thickly populated. B. Badly polluted.
C. Wealthy. D. Equal.
58. How do increasing temperatures harm people？
A. They cause car accidents.
B. They reduce people’s sleep time.
C. They result in extreme weather events.
D. They limit people’s adaptation ability.
59. What can be learned from Kelton Minor’s words in paragraph 5?
A. The study adopted a new research method.
B. Some cities have taken firmer action to fight the heat.
C. Policymakers have doubts about the study.
D. Heat’s impacts may be worse than estimated.
60. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us about the study?
A. Its findings. B. Its limitations.
C. Its applications. D. Its significance.
C
Studying a subject you feel pointless is never a fun or easy task. If you’re studying history, asking yourself the question “why is history important” is a very good first step. History is an essential part of human civilization. You will find something here that will arouse your interest, or get you thinking about the significance of history.
History grounds us in our roots. History is an important and interesting field of study, and learning the history of our home country can give us a deeper, more meaningful glimpse (一瞥) into our ancestral pasts, and how we get to where we are today. Many people feel like they need a sense of cultural belongings, which is something that studying your roots and being open-minded to the evolution of your culture can provide.
History enriches our experience. Reading history is an amazing experience because it enables us to reflect on the social and economic life of the people living long time ago. According to the experts, problems faced by people regardless of the past and present are the same. With the information about the ancestors, one can become more experienced in handling challenges of life.
History makes us more empathetic(具有共情能力的). Studying history can give us insight(洞察力) into why our culture does certain things, and how the past has shaped it into what we know now. It also provides a rather strong foundation for empathy across cultures. Fear and hate for others is usually caused by ignorance(无知). We’re scared of things that we don’t understand. History has the potential to break down those boundaries by offering us insight into entire worlds that would otherwise be foreign to us.
History can inspire us to learn more. What’s fantastic about history is the way it broadens our horizons. It’s almost impossible to learn about one historical period without having dozens of questions about related concepts. Study the 19th century England, and you might catch a glimpse of Charles Dickens’ Oliver Twist. Look up Charles Dickens, and you might learn a thing or two about realism. Or maybe you end up switching your attention away from novels, and discover the history of romantic ports in England. It can go anywhere, and there is something in there for absolutely anybody.
The value of history cannot be underestimated. We don’t have to live in the past, but we can definitely do better by learning from it and using the lessons learnt to lead more meaningful lives.
61. The underlined part “where we are today” in para.2 probably means ____.
A. the turning point in our history B. the present state of our nation
C. the location of our homeland D. the total area of our country
62. According to the experts, why is history useful for people to handle challenges
of life?
A. The problems at present are similar to those in the past.
B. Ancient people laid economic foundations for people today.
C. The current challenges of life were predicted by the ancestors.
D. People living long time ago knew more about how to solve problems.
63. What can be concluded from Para. 4?
A. It is difficult to get rid of cultural barriers.
B. People are willing to accept foreign cultures.
C. Cultural conflicts in history are difficult to ignore.
D. History helps us improve our cross-cultural awareness.
64. With the example in Para. 5, the writer intends to show that ____.
A. Charles Dickens contributes much to British Literature.
B. Oliver Twist can satisfy our curiosity for romantic poets.
C. reading novels is a way to learn about a historical period
D. studying history can arouse people’s interest in other fields.
65. What could be the best title for the passage?
A. How to Build Cultural Identity
B. Why Studying History Matters
C. Know the Past, Know the Present
D. History: a Way to Broaden Horizons





第Ⅱ卷（共40分）
第四部分：写作（共三节，满分40分）
第一节: 阅读表达(满分10分)
阅读下面短文，按照要求完成阅读任务。
“You’ve got to know your own value, know what you want, and stick with it.” That’s what T. McDowell’s advice to others is, and it’s certainly worked for him. This high school senior is currently the owner of Immersion Imaging, a successful company specializing in Internet commerce solutions and online financial databases.
McDowell launched the company in 2012, which was originally called 4th Dimension Graphics. Two years later, it was recognized as Immersion Imaging. Surprisingly, he didn’t begin the company with the assistance of any partners, but instead founded it on his own with the experience and contacts that he already had.
“It’s always been a one-person operation. I could easily take on partners or scale up the business some more, but I want to keep it this way for now,” McDowell said. “I don’t lack any contracts right now. I like it because it’s flexible, so that if I need more income, I can do more; and if I take a break for a while, I don’t have any problems.” If McDowell spends between 30 and 60 hours a week working, Immersion Imaging will offer him a steady income.
Part of the reason McDowell ended up in the computer industry might be explained by the exposure he had as a child. However, he spends his free time on more than just computers. His real interest lies in aviation (航空). With his business spirit and success, McDowell won’t have a problem realizing his dreams of the sky one day.
66. What does McDowell’s company focus on?(no more than 10 words)
67. Why does McDowell want his company to be a one-person operation?(no more than 5 words)

Dear David,
How are you? Hearing that your health has become worse due to the lack of exercise, I feel more than concerned, hoping you’re better now.
From my perspective, the best way for us to recover from illness is taking regular exercise. And nothing could be more beneficial than swimming. To begin with, swimming do good to our organs, heart and lungs in particular. In addition, there is no doubt that our muscles and strength are bound to be boosted by swimming. Last but not least, when swimming, you will feel relaxing and refreshed, which contributes to a full recovery.
I do hope my recommendation can be helpful for you. May you get healthier and better soon!
Yours,
Li Ji
