But while our daily activities depend on clocks

12、that tell us the time science is discovering that our well-being is influenced by a very different kind of timepiece. Circadian rhythms-the human bodys own internal(体内的) clockhave a powerful influence on our health and behaviour. They are programmed from birth and control functions ranging from temp

13、erature and blood pressure to sleep patterns.In recent years researchers have also discovered that this built-in mechanism (内在机制) can influence everything from the way we react to medicines to how well we learn music.The latest example, from experts at Harvard University in the US, shows that the hu

14、man body clock can even influence whether or not we are likely to tell the truth. Researchers found it was easier for people to tell lies in the afternoon because as they were tired, the self control that would normally prevent them from lying started to break down. Tiredness made it easier for them

15、 to tell lies -especially if it meant they got a financial reward at the end.“The body clock has a great effect on us all,” says Professor Jim Horne from the Sleep Research Centre at Loughborough University. “Most people tend to feel good around late morning and then decline in the early afternoon.

16、But the time most of us will feel our sharpest is between 6pm and 8pm. Thats because sleepiness tends to build up throughout the day. By early evening our body clock kicks in to wake us up. One reason may be to ensure we get home safely. When our ancestors (祖先) were coming home after hunting all day

17、, their internal clocks kicked in to get them home in one piece.”So what effects do circadian rhythms have and whats the best time of day to take advantage of them?1The underlined word “They” in the first paragraph refers to_ .Aour health and behaviour Bscientists and expertsCour daily routines Dcir

School was all but impossi

24、ble for Sparky.He failed every subject in the eighth grade. And though he did manage to make the schools golf team, he lost the only important match of the season straight away.Throughout his youth, Sparky was awkward socially. It wasnt that the other students disliked him. It was just that no one r

25、eally cared all that much. In fact, Sparky was surprised if a classmate ever said hello to him outside of school hours. Sparky was a loser. Him, his classmates everyone knew it. So he learned to live with it. He made up his mind that if things were meant to work out, they would. One thing was import

26、ant to Sparky, however-drawing. He was proud of his artwork. No one else enjoyed it. But that didnt seem to matter to him. In his senior year of high school, he sent some cartoons to the yearbook. The editors refused to consider his ideas. Despite (即使；尽管) that, Sparky was sure about his ability. He

27、even decided to become an artist.So, after finishing high school, Sparky wrote to Walt Disney Studios. They asked for samples (样本) of his artwork. Despite careful preparation, it too was refused. One more confirmation that he was a loser.But Sparky still didnt give up. Instead, he decided to tell hi

28、s own lifes story in cartoons. The main character would be a little boy who symbolized the boy who always lost. You know him well. Because Sparkys cartoon character went on to become a kind of cultural phenomenon (现象). People readily identified with this “lovable loser”. He reminded people of the pa

29、inful and embarrassing moments from their own past, of their pain and their shared humanity. The character soon became famous worldwide: “Charlie Brown”. And Sparky, the boy whose many failures never kept him from trying, whose work was refused again and again, is the highly successful cartoonist Ch

30、arles Schultz. His cartoon strip Peanuts continues to inspire books, T-shirts and Christmas specials, reminding us, as someone, that life somehow finds a way for all of us, even the losers.1The underlined part “he learned to live with it” in Paragraph 3 probably means that Sparky _.Adecided not to m

33、.CBecause it was a kind of cultural phenomenon.DBecause it inspired people to fight for their own lives.4What can we conclude (推断) from the article?ASparky never lost confidence in his ability.BArtists often have little chance of becoming successful.CThe writer believes that others opinions dont mat

Some of these expressions a

43、re commonly used for many years. Others are popular for just a short time. One such American expression is “Wheres the beef?” It is used when something is not as good as it is said to be. In the early 1980s “Wheres the beef?” was one of the most popular expressions in the United States. It seemed as

44、 if everyone was using it at the time.Beef, of course, is the meat from a cow, and food is more popular in America than a hamburger made from beef. In the 1960s a businessman named Ray began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers at a low price. Ray called this “McDonalds”. Ray became one o

45、f the richest businessmen at last in America.Other business people watched his success. Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants. One company(公司) called “Wendys” said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by McDonalds or anyone else. The Wendys Company began to use the expression “Wh

46、eres the beef?” to make people know that Wendys hamburgers were the biggest. The Wendys television advertisement(广告) showed three old women eating hamburgers.

It influences health, intelligence(智力) and feelings.In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States.

51、nth. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states(州) have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, IQ(智商) of a

52、 group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot

53、 months of the year (July and August).Weather also has a strong influence on peoples feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months.
