But it comes as something of a

20、surprise that who is 1 as beautiful depends not only on the health of a person but also on the average level of health in the place where she lives. This, though, is the conclusion of a study just published in Biology Letters by Urszula Marcinkowska of the University of Turku, in Finland, and her 2

21、for Ms. Marcinkowska has found that men in healthy countries think women with the most 3 face are the prettiest whilst those in unhealthy places prefer more masculine-looking ones. Ms Marcinkowska came to this conclusion by showing nearly 2,000 men from 28 countries various versions of the same fema

22、le faces, 4 to look less or more feminine and thus 5 the effect of different levels of oestrogen and testosterone. Oestrogen promotes 6 , such as large eyes and full lips, that are 7 feminine. Testosterone promotes 8 features, such as wide faces and strong chins. Previous studies have shown that wom

23、en with feminine features are more fertile. A man“s 9 for them is thus likely to enhance his reproductive success. Ms Marcinkowska speculates that testosterone-induced behavioral characteristics like 10 , which might be expected to correlate with masculine-looking faces even in women (they certainly

24、 do in men), help in the competition for resources needed to sustain children once they are born. But why that should be particularly important in an unhealthy country is unclear. A. features B. refined C. feminine D. favorable E. modified F. perceived G. preference H. dominance I. genetically J. pe

After being diagnosed with brain and lung cancer in 2011, Lynn Mitchell, 68, was averaging about an hour of solid sleep a night. Stressed about

26、her treatments, she was paying for it in hours of lost sleep. B. The brain cancer was already affecting her mobilityMitchell was often dizzy and would lose her balancebut the lack of sleep made things worse. Even walking became increasingly difficult. Exhausted in the mornings, she was practically i

27、ncoherent(精神恍惚). When her doctors recommend she see a sleep therapist, Mitchell was relieved at how benign it sounded in comparison to the chemotherapy(化学疗法) she had undergone and the gene therapy trial she was undergoing, which had side effects like nausea and fatigue. C. For about nine weeks, Mitc

28、hell worked with the sleep therapist to adjust her sleep habits. She went to bed only when she was extremely tired. She quit watching TV in bed. She stopped drinking caffeinated (含咖啡因的) coffee in the evening. She also learned breathing exercises to relax and help her fall asleep. It was all quite si

29、mple and common sense, and most importantly, noninvasive and didn“t require taking any pills. D. “It“s common knowledge that sleep is needed for day to day function,“ says Dr. David Rapoport, director of the Sleep Medicine Program at NYU School of Medicine. “What isn“t common knowledge is that it re

30、ally mattersit“s not just cosmetic.“ Rapoport has long seen people seek sleep therapy because they“re chronically tired or suffering from insomnia, but an increasing number of patients are being referred to his center for common diseases, disorders, and mental health. E. Researchers have known for s

31、ome time that sleep is critical for weight maintenance and hormone balance. And too little sleep is linked to everything from diabetes(糖尿病) to heart disease to depression. Recently, mounting evidence indicates that sleep plays a role in nearly every aspect of health. Beyond chronic illnesses, a chil

32、d“s behavioral problems at school could be rooted in mild sleep apnea(呼吸暂停). And studies have shown children with ADHD(注意力缺陷多动症) are more likely to get insufficient sleep. A recent study published in the journal SLEEP found a link between older men with poor sleep quality and cognitive decline. Anot

33、her study shows sleep is essential in early childhood for development, learning, and the formation and retention of memories. F. But to many of us, sleep is easily sacrificed, especially since lack of it isn“t seen as life threatening. Over time, sleep deprivation can have serious consequences, but

34、we mostly sacrifice a night of sleep here and there, and always say that we“ll “catch up.“ Luckily, it is possible to make up for sleep debt (though it can take a very long time), but most Americans are still chronically sleep deprived. G. While diet and exercise have been a part of public health me

35、ssaging for decades, doctors and health advocates are now beginning to argue that getting quality sleep may be just as important for overall health. “Sleep is probably easier to change than diet or exercise,“ says Dr. Michael Grandner, a sleep researcher at the University of Pennsylvania. “It may al

36、so give you more of an immediate reward if it helps you get through your day.“ Sleep experts claim that it is one of the top three, and sometimes the most, important lifestyle adjustments one can make, in addition to diet and exercise. And while there“s more evidence linking diet and exercise as inf

37、luential health factors, sleep is probably more important in terms of brain and hormonal function. “Among a small group of sleep researchers, it“s always been said that eating, exercise, and sleep are the three pillars of health,“ says Dr. Rapoport. H. In our increasingly professional and digital li

38、ves, carving out time for sleep is not only increasingly difficult, but also more necessary. Using technology before bed stimulates us and interferes with our sleep, yet 95% of Americans use some type of electronics like a computer, TV, or cell phone at least a few nights a week within the hour befo

39、re we go to bed, according to a 2011 National Sleep Foundation survey. “Many doctors, lawyers, and executives stay up late and get up early and burn the candle at both ends,“ says Dr. Richard Lang, chair of Preventative Medicine at the Cleveland Clinic. “Making sure they pay attention to sleep in th

40、e same way they pay attention to diet and exercise is crucial.“ I. To some, sleep has become a powerful cure to mental health. Arianna Huffington, president and editor-in-chief of the Huffington Post Media Group, advocates that sleep is the secret to success, happiness, and peak performance. After p

41、assing out a few years ago from exhaustion and cracking a cheekbone against her desk, Huffington has become something of a sleep evangelist(传道者). In a 2010 TED Women conference, Huffington said, “The way to a more productive, more inspired, more joyful life is getting enough sleep.“ Research linking

42、 high-quality sleep with better mental health is growing; a 2013 study found that treating depressed patients for insomnia can double their likelihood of overcoming the disorder. J. While 70% of physicians agree that inadequate sleep is a major health problem, only 43% counsel their patients on the

43、benefits of adequate sleep. But there“s growing pressure on primary care physicians to address, and even prescribe, sleep during routine check-ups. In a recent study published in the journal The Lancet Diabetes he rejected one version of the Apple II computer because the lines on its internal circui

44、t boards weren“t straight enough. But, if-Kendall is correct, Jobs wasn“t a person consumed solely by his own ambition: he focused on shaping and perfecting the physical world just to avoid con fronting his innermost self. Kendall quotes a psychiatrist who says it often begins with an insecure growi

45、ng-up: “Children who have little control over the key events and people in their lives begin to focus on something they can control.“ Avoiding self-reflection, they make poor parents and partners. But their avoidance also leads to their success. This is disturbing, since the “experiential avoidance“

46、 the effort not to feel certain feelings, or think certain thoughtsis widely considered as a bad thing. It“s blamed for everything from social anxiety to self-harm; the fast-developing acceptance and commitment therapy is dedicated to overcoming it, by helping people safely to “feel their feelings“.

47、 Could it really bring benefits? The question strikes deep at how we think about psychological disorders. By definition, they interfere with life. But what counts as interfering is subjective: is it “better“ to be a great innovator than an ordinary spouse, or vice versa? The happiest among Kendall“s

48、 obsessives are those with self-awareness: they chose to embrace their obsessions, accepting the downsides. The tragic ones kept trying to make their relationships conform to their rigid demands. A Wired magazine cover last year asked readers, “Do you really want to be like Steve Jobs?“ In a work cu

49、lture that increasingly uses “obsessive“ as a compliment, it“s worth pausing to ask the question.（分数：71.00）(1).What was the main reason for Thomas Jefferson being busy in the first week of July 1776?（分数：14.20）A.The adoption ofthe Declaration of Independence.B.The recording of the temperature changes.C.The recording of the availability of vegetables in the markets.D.All of the above.(2).According to Kendall, why did Jefferson catalogue these letters when his wife died?（分数：14.20）A.Because he coul
