Question

Are you sometimes a little tired in the early afternoon?   小題1:  . They may think it’s because we eat too much. Or, in summer, they may think it is too hot.   小題2:   . About eight hours after you wake up, your body temperature goes down.
In many parts of the world, people take naps(打盹) in the middle of the day. This is really true when it’s warmer, and the hot weather makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Now researchers are saying that naps are good for everyone at any time. 小題3:  If people often take naps, there are often few problems with their hearts.
小題4:  Though doctors may ask them to take naps, however, bosses don’t let them do it! If you do have the chance, remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. 小題5:,  try a short nap – even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.

小題1:C
小題2:E
小題3:D
小題4:F
小題5:B

試題分析：這篇短文中作者主要介紹了午間小睡的重要性，也是人們最容易忽視的問題，即使沒有充足的時間，一二十分鐘的小睡也是很有幫助的。
小題1:開頭一句Are you sometimes a little tired in the early afternoon?提出問題，第三句是部分人推測的原因，所以C項屬于承上啟下的一句；故選C。
小題2:前面兩句是人們推測的兩種原因，后面介紹的是體溫的變化，所以在此通過however引出真正的原因是什么；故選E。
小題3:前面提到Now researchers are saying that naps are good for everyone at any time.后面又說如果人們經(jīng)常小睡，那么心臟的問題會相應(yīng)減少；由此可知D項We can take naps everywhere.符合前后相銜接的句子；故選D。
小題4:后面的一句Though doctors may ask them to take naps, however, bosses don’t let them do it! 點明了問題的核心所在，許多人沒有時間及機會小睡，所以FBut many working people have no time to take naps.引出問題；故選F。
小題5:最后的句子try a short nap – even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.是有條件的策略，即B項If you do not have enough time,如果沒有充足的時間，那么休息十多分鐘也是很有幫助的；故選Ｂ。
