Julie Boergers, Ph.D., a sleep expert from the Bradley Hasbro Children’s Research Center, recently led a study connecting later school start times to improved sleep and mood in teens.
“Sleep deprivation is common among teenagers, with potentially serious impacts on mental and physical health, safety and learning. Early high school start times contribute to this 一 problem,” said Boergers. “In this study, we looked at whether a delay in school start time would change students’ sleep patterns, sleepiness, mood and caffeine(咖啡因) use.”
Boergers’ team conducted the School Sleep Habits Survey among boarding students attending an independent high school both before and after their school start time was experimentally delayed from 8 to 8:25 a.m. during
the winter term. The delay in school start time led to a significant increase (29 minutes) in sleep duration on
school nights, with the percentage of students receiving eight or more hours of sleep on a school night jumping from 18 to 44 percent. The research found that younger students and those sleeping less at the start of the study were most likely to benefit from the timetable change. Daytime sleepiness, low mood and caffeine use were all
significantly reduced after the delay in school start time. The later school start time had no effect on the number of hours students spent doing homework, playing sports or taking part in activities outside class. And once the earlier start time changed back during the spring term, teens reverted(恢复) back to their original sleep levels.
Boergers said that these findings are important for public policy. “The results of this study add to a growing body of research showing important health benefits of later school start times for adolescents,” she said, “and we have students who are more alert(机敏的) ，happier, better prepared to learn, and aren’t dependent on caffeine and energy drinks just to stay awake in class.”
56. What does the underlined phrase “this problem” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Lack of sleep. B. Mental health.
C. Students’ safety. D. Taking energy drinks.
57. What happened when school start time was delayed?
A. Students had less time playing sports. B. Younger students became sleepier.
C. More students slept longer. D. Students got a bad mood.
58. Why is the study of later school start time important?
A. It helps form good habits. B. It relates to what students learn.
C. It increases students’ learning interest. D. It may have an effect on a public policy. 59. Where can we possibly read this type of article?
A. A science journal. B. A history book.
C. A fashion magazine. D. A school yearbook.

Color is a daily mystery. ROY GBIVdeals with lots of big-picture color questions, explaining why barns are often red and why NYC taxis are yellow. Today’s question: Why are jeans blue?
First, why “jeans”? Jeans’ twin names 一 denim and jeans 一 come from the two European ports that supplied two similar fabrics (织物) during the Middle Ages. Gene fustian was a cotton-linen-wool blend shipped from
Genoa. A silk-wool blend called Serge de Nimes, shortened to de Nimes or denim, was shipped out of France.
Both fabrics gradually changed into similar, cotton-only blends by the 19th century, according to an article titled A Short History ofDenim by historian Lynn Downey. Both were “used to make men’s clothing, valued especially for [their] property of durability(耐久性) even after many washings.”
In 1873 Levi Strauss teamed tip with Jacob Davis to produce jeans. They sold like hot cakes to Gold Rush miners seeking a durable uniform for fortune-seeking. Jeans rapidly came to stand for the character of the
American West 一 frank, energetic , rebellious, and capitalistic.
While Gold Rush miners probably didn’t care about how denim looked, they cared a lot about durability,
comfort and fit. At the beginning, Strauss offered his “waist overalls” in two varieties: brown cotton “duck” or
canvas, and blue denim 一 but by 1911 they’d stopped using cotton duck entirely. As historian Downey explains: “Once someone had worn a pair of denim pants, experiencing its strength… and how the denim became more
comfortable with every washing… he never wanted to wear duck again;because with cotton duck, you always feel like you’re wearing a tent” .
So why are jeans blue? The answer has to do with dye. Unlike most natural dyes that, when heated,penetrate cloth fibers directly, indigo(靛蓝) sticks to the cloth’s threads. With each washing some of these dye molecules are stripped away, taking bits of the threads with them. The process softens rough fabrics and individualizes the color.
This extreme customization made every pair a second skin.
60. How does the author start talking about jeans?
A. From the quality of the fabrics B. From a famous historian.
C. From their hometowns. D. From their names.
61. Which of the following helped establish the popularity of jeans in 1873?
A. Hot cakes. B. A durable uniform.
C. American character. D. Gold Rush.
62. What can we infer about indigo?
A. It cannot be heated. B. It can be machine washed.
C. It doesn’t stay for a long time. D. It goes into the cloth’s fibers directly.
63. By saying “made every pair a second skin” in the last paragraph, the author most probably means . A. the pants were made of skin B. the pants fitted people well
C. the dyes were quite natural D. the threads became softer and softer

Cloud computing will be in use by about 80 percent of about 600 companies. The trend suggests that data management and storage are moving to cloud computing sellers on a large scale.
Touting(兜售) cloud computing as a way to get rid of the costs of buying and maintaining on-site
information-technology equipment, sellers offer it in the form of Software As A Service (SAAS), a delivery model in which software applications are delivered to customers over a web-based network. SAAS can serve the needs of entire companies through huge, web-based platforms. As cloud computing rapidly becomes the delivery
channel for software developers of all shapes and sizes to get their products to market, offering applications in a cloud is now the rule, not the exception. A relatively small number of sellers are able to offer SAAS to big
companies that want company-wide cloud computing, and only the best-capitalized sellers need apply. Although market-share data are hard to come by, the list of companies large enough to offer cloud computing on this scale is short: Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Salesforce, Rackspace and not many others.
The concentration of data and virtual(虚凝) computing in the hands of relatively few sellers raises an
important risk for their customers. If the Internet-based systems of any one seller are hacked, the result could be security problems across entire industries in which their customers do business, creating liabilities(债移) on an almost unthinkable scale.
Can this small group of cloud-computing sellers effectively respond to the needs of their customers to
quickly fix such a problem and, most importantly, cut offthe damage to these companies’ own customers?
Don’t think such things can’t happen. If hackers can penetrate the Department of Defense the risk that they will penetrate Microsoft or Google cannot be ruled out. Compromise of just one of these sellers 一 even one with a modest market share 一 possibly could shut down, at least temporarily, a sizable part of the U.S. economy.
64. What can cloud computing do?
A. Reduce the cost of computers. B. Provide software service.
C. Market various products. D. Help companies design websites.
65. What do we know about cloud computing?
A. It works under SAAS. B. It covers a large part of market-share.
C. Most companies can provide it. D. Most sellers apply for it.
66. Why is the Department of Defense mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. To warn people of the hackers’ power. B. To show relationship between it and Microsoft.
C. To give an example of the country’s loss. D. To present the real picture of the U.S. economy.
67. What might be the best title for the text?
A. The Unthinkable Risks of the Cloud B. Cloud Computing and Smart Sellers
C. SAAS and Changing Companies D. The Cloud Computing Age

I never knew much about my mother’s father, John Leon La Walla. He moved to the city of Melbourne,
Australia, in the 1920s, married, and started to raise a family, but died in World War II. All we had was one framed photo of him dressed in his army uniform.
For some reason, my grandfather had not kept in touch with any of his relatives, although my mother did
recall some family names. It wasn’t till 1963 that she finally saw her father’s grave, in the Albury War Cemetery in New South Wales. I fiercely wanted to know more about this man. Who were his parents? Who were his brothers and sisters? Were any of them still alive and, if so, where were they now? Did they ever wonder what became of our John Leon?
With the advent(到来) of the Internet, I started searching in earnest in the late 1990s. From my grandfather’s records in the array, I learnt he’d listed his birthplace as Hertfordshire, England. “I think his surname must have
been a false name,” my father said. This made me upset but I put it aside, concentrating instead on my father’s line. I joined 。genealogy(系谱学) website and was soon discovering some of my ancestors from distant relatives. I
wrote, “I just wish I could find out about my mother’s father now,” and told them of my search.
In late 2012, I heard from a very distant relation on my father’s side called Julie, from New Zealand. As a
genealogist herself, she’d taken pity on me and spent several weeks on research. It was a bombshell when she said she may have found my grandfather’s family.
She’d searched English census(人口普查) records and found the surname Waller. The dates and first names matched, right down to a brother who’d died on the Western Front. Julie had overcome the false name, traced a whole tree and put me in touch with current-day relatives.
“Consider it an early Christmas present,” she said. Julie had done all this very careful research for a stranger. I will be ever grateful.
68. What can we learn about the author’s grandfather?
A. He was born in Australia B. He was a soldier.
C. He died in 1963. D. He had no relatives.
69. Why did the author feel upset when knowing his grandfather’s surname may not be real?
A. The Internet was not helpful. B. His father gave up searching.
C. The genealogy website worked well. D. His search could not continue.
70. Who finally succeeded in the search?
A. The author’s father. B. Someone named Waller.
C. The author’s brother. D. Julie, a practical stranger.
71. What is the main idea of the text?
A. The search of the family root. B. The powerful Internet.
C. The story of a genealogist. D. The gratitude of a young man.
