A、Ourbiologicalclockresetsitselfautomatically.

B,Lightgetsthroughoureyesandresetsourbiologicalclock.

C、Ourinternalclockaswellasthealarmclockcanberesetautomatically.

D、Ourinternalclock,likethealarmclock,canbereset.

【正確答案】C

alarmclock,yourinternalclockcanbereset.Infact,itautomaticallyresetsitself

everyday.How?Byusingthelightitgetsthroughyoureyes.代詞it指代biological

clock,不是選項internalclock和alarmclock都可以自動調(diào)節(jié)。得到答案為C。AD

我們的生物鐘自動調(diào)節(jié)。B光線通過我們的眼睛調(diào)節(jié)生物鐘，與原文一致。

形式主語。此句也可以改寫為：ThatEnglishisbeingacceptedasaninternational

languageisafact.

第10題【單選題】

［閱讀選擇】Tom,anear-sightedyoungman,wentonablinddatewithagirl.The

A、Tommadeagoodimpressiononthegirlatfirst.

B、ItwasthefirsttimethatTomhaddatedagirl.

C>Tomwasblind.

D^Tomwashandsomeandpopularwiththegirls.

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】答案選A。細節(jié)判斷題。從Thetwoweresatisfiedwitheachother

可知，相親過后，兩人對對方都很滿意，所以A選項正確，湯姆第一次見對方就

留下了很好的印象。B項所表述內(nèi)容在文中找不到根據(jù)，不能判斷這是湯姆第幾

次約會。根據(jù)文章描述，湯姆只是near-sighted,遠不到盲了的地步。文章僅講

述了湯姆利某一個女孩相親的精力，對他的個人魅力以及是否受女孩歡迎并未提

及。

的生活適合這一周期。Dr.Kleitman認為經(jīng)常性的行為（對你的能量周期）能起作

用?！弊詈髢删溆终f,"...risebeforeyourusualhour...workbetteratyourlow
