问题 共用题干Energy Cycle

Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful?This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation.He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you are"hot".That's true.The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at this peak.For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so,but it leads to such familiar words as:"Get up, John!You'll be late for work again!"The possible explanation to the trouble is he is at his tempera-ture-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can't change your energy cycle,but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help,Dr. Kleitman believes.Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway.Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to.If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day,rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle,but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start,which saves your energy.Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.Whenever possible,do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy for your sharper hours.

选项 People who find getting up in the morning difficult are lazy.A:Right        B:Wrong        C:Not mentioned

答案B

解析虽然文章第一段提到早上起不来床会被称为懒,但是本文强调的是Kleitman博士所提出的新观点,就是这可能是由于每个人不同的能量周期决定的。因此不是所有早上起不来的人都是懒,所以这句话是错误的。 根据文章第二段和第三段我们知道能量峰值在晚上的人早上精神会不好,能量峰值在早上的人则相反,因此本句是正确的。 文章第二段最后一句讲到如果夫妻双方都能意识到能量周期的不同,那么“much family quarrelling ends”,即少了许多争吵,也就是说很多争吵是因为没有意识到能量周期的问题,因此本句表述是错误的。 第二段三句讲“The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at this peak",即精力最充沛的时候体温最高,但这并不意味着精力和体温是一码事,例如人生病的时候会发烧但精神会很差。本句的表述是错误的。 文章第二段告诉我们“No one has discovered why this is so”,即没人知道为什么每个人的能量周期不同,因此我们也不知道是不是有遗传因素,所以选择选项C。 第三段第一句告诉我们虽然可以让自己的生活适应能量周期,但是“you can't change your energy cycle",因此本句表述是错误的,应当选择选项B。 文章第三段最后两句建议早上处于低潮的人们要比平时起得早,这样才能工作得更好。因此本句的陈述是正确的。
