题目列表(包括答案和解析)
Do you know why I am always in support of learning a foreign language? The reasons are as follows:
1. Improve your English
I know this might not make sense at first but hear me out. As a person who speaks only one
language, you have no basis for comparison（比较）；all you know is English. In different languages
the same idea is often expressed in different ways. You will find yourself speaking and writing more
creative sentences. There is a reason why most great writers and poets are students of many
languages.2.______________
Travelling is one of the great joys of life and also one of the most wonderful experience. Why not
get the most out of your experience? If you don't know the native language of the country that you are
visiting, you are completely excluded from the culture. The locals（当地人）don't speak to you.
Knowing even a few phrases will make a huge difference. You will meet more people and find it much
easier to get around.
3. Join the global community
The majority of the world does not speak English. The truth is that new thoughts and ideas are
happening everywhere and they are not being immediately translated. The world is getting smaller and
we are coming into contact(接触) with more non-English speakers all the time. Gain an advantage
for yourself in business and personal relationships by being able to communicate with people in their
language.
Now that you know three great reasons for learning a foreign language, do it right now.

Open Your Eyes And Let's See Who You Are
Inventors have developed a new way to identify people, using a machine that scans their eyeballs．Developed by eyes scan, this new technology takes advantage of the fact that the iris(虹膜)of each person's eye is unique, and remains unchanged throughout a lifetime．
The process will replace ________called retina(视网膜)identification, which compared the pattern of veins(静脉)in the back of the eye．Used to control access to nuclear weapons, retina identification has never caught on with the public because it requires the user to put their eyeball right up against a lens．Iris scanning, on the other hand, works from a distance．
The iris of the eye is photographed from up to one meter away．The patterns of the iris are translated into digital code, and stored in a PC database, along with personal information．Glasses and contact lenses do not interfere with the scanning process, and it takes only a brief moment．
The new technology will be useful for banking and police work, as well as for the Internet economy．Before long, your computer monitor may be equipped with an iris scanner that can identify you when you shop online, thus preventing fraud．
There will be no ID cards to carry in your pocket, and no long numbers to memorize．And eyes will be very difficult to counterfeit．
Did you lose your ID card?No, you didn't．It's still right up there beside your nose．

You do not need every word to understand the meaning of what you read．In fact, too much emphasis on separate words both ________ and reduces your comprehension．
First, any habit which slows down your silent reading to the speed at which you speak, or read aloud, is inefficient．If you point to each word as you read, or move your head, or form the words with your lips, you read poorly．Less obvious habits also hold back reading efficiency(效率)．One is “saying” each word silently by moving your tongue or throat; another is “hearing” each word as you read．
These are habits which should have been outgrown long ago．The beginning reader is learning how letters can make words, how written words are pronounced, and how sentences are put together．Your reading purpose is quite different; it is to understand meaning．
It has been supposed that up to 75％ of the words in English sentences are not really necessary for expressing the meaning．The secret of silent reading is to find out those key words and phrases which carry the thought, and to pay less attention to words which exist only for grammatical completeness．
An efficient reader can grasp the meaning from a page at least twice as fast as he can read the page aloud．He takes in a whole phrase or thought unit at a time．If he “says” or “hears” words to himself, they are selected ones, said for emphasis．

阅读下面短文，并根据要求完成文章后的题目。
If you are worried about things and are under a lot of stress at work or school, then you are probably not sleeping well．Worry can keep you awake, tossing and turning in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually fall asleep．When you wake up, you don't feel refreshed, but tired and worn out and unable to face a new day．
Dr．Henry Winkle, in a recent newspaper article entitled Stress and Sleep, indicates that ________．Dr．Winkle says, “The more we worry, the less we sleep, the more we are unable to deal with stress．If we can find a way to get a good night's sleep,” he adds, “we can often find the energy to deal with what's worrying us”．
So, what is a good night's sleep?Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in order to keep healthy varies a lot．Seven hours in about the average amount, though strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache instead of making you feel more refreshed．
Dr．Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important．People who work late should try to give themselves a short break and do something restful before going to bed．This could be watching TV or listening to music．Doing some exercise earlier in the day should help you to feel physically as well as mentally tired．A bedtime drink can also help, but coffee or tea should be avoided as they contain caffeine and will keep you awake．“When you put the light out,” Dr．Winkle says, “concentrate on relaxing your muscles, working slowly up from your feet, and you'll be asleep before you know it．”
