Goodreads allows you to write reviews(评论)for everything you’ve ever read. You can see and comment on your friends’ reading progress, as well as create or find a book club group page in your area.‎ Goodreads is simple to use. When you sign up here for an account(帐户), you will be able to find your friends by their email addresses or other accounts. Once you have some friends, every time you log in(登录), you will see a timeline of their updates. You can see when they’ve added a book to a list, or when they’ve finished or reviewed a book. As soon as you have an account, you can also start looking for books you've read or that you want to read. Once you finish reading a book, you can go to the book page and review it.‎ Finding your next book has never been easier. Now, not only can you search for books you know you want to read and add them to your “to read” list, but you can also easily see what your friends have recently read.‎ If you are looking for a book club that meets in your area, you can search for that on Goodreads, too. Similarly, if you want to create your own book club, you can do that ‎ easily: just start a new group on Goodreads and update the page to show what books you’re reading.‎ ‎4. If you want to use Goodreads, you must have ________.‎ A. an email address B. a book review C. an account D. a book list ‎5. What can you do with a “to read” list? A. You can review books you have recently read B. You can make your selection process even easier C. You can know what you want to read next D. You can see what books your friends enjoyed ‎6. If you want to set up a book club on the Internet, you should ________. A. inform others about book club meetings in time B. update information about what books you are reading C. search for your old group on Goodreads D. refer to book clubs on Goodreads daily ‎7. The passage is most probably taken from ________. A. a research paper B. a news report C. a website article D. a travel guide C With around 100 students scheduled to be in that 9 am Monday morning lecture, it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes; it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pyjamas(睡衣). Obviously, students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.‎ All human beings possess a body clock. Along with other alerting(警报) systems, this governs the sleep/wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour. Typically, the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents, which leads to many students not feeling sleepy until much later in the evenings. This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the "night owl" schedule of sleep.‎ This is opposed to the "early bird" schedule, and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight. Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings. Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night. Research findings have shown that about 20 percent of people can be classified as "night owls" and only 10 percent can be classified as "early birds"—the other 70 percent are in the middle. Although this is clearly not true for all students, for the ones who are true night owls this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.‎ 8. What docs the author stress in Paragraph 1? A. Many students are absent from class. B. Students are very tired on Monday mornings. C. Students do not adjust their sleep patterns well. D. Students are not well prepared for class on Mondays. 9. Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2? A. Most students prefer to get up late in the morning. B. Students don't sleep well because of alerting systems. C. One's body clock governs the sleep/wake cycle independently. D. Adolescents' delayed sleep/wake cycle isn't the preferred pattern. 10. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "classified" in Paragraph 3? A. Criticized. B. Grouped. C. Organized. D. Named. 11. What does the text mainly talk about? A. Functions of the body clock. B. The "night owl" phenomenon. C. Human beings' sleep behaviour. D. The school schedule of "early birds".‎ D Visitors to Britain are sometimes surprised to learn that newspapers there have such a large circulation. The “quality” newspapers are often held up as an example of impartial journalism, but the Daily Mirror and the Daily Express usually impress newspapermen even more because they both sell about four million copies every day. British families generally buy a newspaper every morning and frequently take two or three on Sundays, but the vast circulation figures obtained are not only due to the Englishman’s thirst for news.Because the newspapers are all published nationally, copies can be delivered everywhere at the same time.‎ Though people abroad often know the names of the national papers, they seldom realize that there is another branch of the British press which sells almost as many copies. Local newspapers have a weekly circulation of 13 million. Almost every town and country area has one. Nearly all of them hold their own finance and many of them are very profitable.‎ These papers are written almost entirely for readers interested in local events — births, weddings, deaths, council meetings and sports — but the content is naturally influenced by the kind of community they serve. Editors prefer to rely on a small staff of people who all know the district well. A great deal of local news is regularly supplied by clubs and churches in the neighbourhood and it does not get out of date as quickly as ‎ national news. If there is no room for it in this week’s edition, an item can sometimes be held until the following week.‎ The editor must never forget that the success of any newspaper depends on advertising. He is usually anxious to keep the good will of local businessmen for this reason. But if the newspaper is well written and the news items are carefully chosen to attract local readers, the businessmen are grateful for the opportunity to keep their products in the public eye.‎ Local newspapers do not often comment on problems of national importance and editors rarely hold with taking sides on political questions. But they can often be of service to the community in expressing public feeling on local issues. A newspaper can sometimes persuade the council to take action to provide better shopping facilities, improve transport in the area and preserve local monuments and places of interest.‎ 12. The Daily Mirror impresses newspapermen more because_____. A. it has a larger circulation than many other famous papers B. it is of better quality than many other papers C. it is sold nationally D. it is delivered everywhere in Britain 13. Local papers are preferred by readers who_____. A. are interested in news B. are much interested in local events C. want to get news as quickly as possible D. work in churches and clubs ‎14. According to the passage,businessmen would like to advertise in papers if _____.‎ A. the papers are well written B. the news items are carefully chosen C. the news involves them D. the papers are popular and can attract readers ‎15. The last paragraph implies(暗示)that ______. A. local papers seldom comment on politics B. local papers can sometimes influence policy making C. local papers are more concerned about their own communities D. local papers do not take sides on problems of national importance 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ After entering high school, you must wonder how to study well.
