语篇解读：早起的鸟儿一定有虫吃吗？研究说明工作时间与人的生物钟相一致时，工作

效率较高；反之，工作效率较低。

41.conductedconductedbyanAmericanprofessor是过去分词短语作定语，修饰

research,分词动作conduct与逻辑主语research之间是被动关系。

42.higher本空与本空后的“morecreative〃构成并列，故填high的比拟级。这里

是将员工工作时间和人体的自然睡眠模式一致时与员工被剥夺了睡眠时间时相比拟。

43.Thetheopposite是“the+形容词〃表示一类事物。

44.tomakebelikelytodosth.意思是“很可能会做某事”。

45.Sadly空格中所填单词在句中修饰整个句子，需用sad的副词形式。

4
