A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Notmentioned

參考答案：C

第二段第一句提至/Bythetimebabiesareayearoldtheycanrecognize

alotofsoundsandevensimplewords.但題目句中提到的是vowels（元音），

第22題：

參考答案：B

借助常識(shí)判斷該題的說法錯(cuò)誤，文章中通常不會(huì)提出沒有用的東西來浪費(fèi)讀者的

Investigators*"foundthatpeoplewhoclockup9or10hourseach

主題一一睡眠時(shí)間太長不是好事；對應(yīng)選項(xiàng)發(fā)現(xiàn)只有E和F與這個(gè)內(nèi)容有關(guān)系，

但段落最后一句中又提到了睡眠不足的人的問題，因此判斷E項(xiàng)Sleepproblems

問題。

第24題：

Paragraph4.

參考答案:

B

詳細(xì)解答：

第四段只有一句話，該句的結(jié)構(gòu)是Previousstudieshaveshownthe

該段的中心是講述“長期睡眠不足的潛在危險(xiǎn)”。因此選B項(xiàng)DangersofHabitual

shortagesofsleep。

第25題:

Paragraph5.

參考答案：

A

詳細(xì)解答：

第五段一開始就提到了Kripke的研究，但后來也說到Sleepproblems

的“睡眠問題”是屬于Kripke的問卷上要回答的內(nèi)容，是和Kripke的直接研究

有關(guān)，所以判斷A項(xiàng)斷ipke'sresearchtool是正確答案。
