四、阅读理解(共15小题;每小题3分，共45分。)
阅读下列短文，然后根据短文的内容从每小题的四个选择项中选择最佳的一项。
A
Have you ever felt your mind falling into disorder after a sleepless night?You couldn't come up with an original thought no matter how hard you tried.
You were probably right if you thought that was caused by a lack of sleep.Dr.Home,a sleep researcher in England,studied 24 college students.One group got their normal eight hours of sleep.The other group didn't get the smallest amount of sleep-they stayed awake all night.The next day,Dr,Home tested the students.He asked them question that required creative and original thinking.One of the questions was'How many uses can a cardboard box be put to?'
The result?The wide-awake students did well on the test.The tired students did poorly.
Research has already shown that tired people can do OK on tests of habitual thinking,like simple addition But Dr.Home tested creative thinking only.
As part of his study,he offered an amount of money as reward to the sleepy students if they did well.But even this encouragement was not enough to help the students conquer their tiredness.They did poorly.Dr.Home believes that the part of the brain where thinking takes place may becomes very tired during waking hours.Sleep may help to repair the brain.'Without any sleep,'he emphasizes(强调),'even if you pay closer attention,you can't do better.'
This study gives people something to think about,especially like hospital workers who must stay awake all night and then make quick decisions.
36.It can be known from the text that lack of sleep may _.()
A.be a cause of some serious diseases
B.cause one to lose his ability to calculate
C.do harm to one's power of usual thinking
D.weaken one's power of creative thinking
37.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?()
A.Hospital workers can think well although they often stay awake all night.
B.People can not work well without good sleep.
C.Dr.Home's tests are on habitual thinking.
D.Sleep has nothing to do with creativity.
38.The underlined word'conquer'can be replaced by _()
A.take off B.break out C.give off D.get over
39.Why couldn't the reward offered in the study attract the sleepy students?()
A.Because they were too tired and too sleepy.
B.Because they did not care for money at all.
C.Because they thought sleep might help to repair the brain.
D.Because they waited for bigger rewards.
四、阅读理解
36.D推理判断题。短文第三段说出了实验的结果即由于不睡觉而困乏的人表现很差。注意：该段中的“the widerawake students”指的是实验时清醒的(.wide-awake)实验对象，而非上文所说的“不睡觉的人”(stayedawake)。
37.B辨别正误题。末段说明A项错误;第四段说明C项错误;根据第三、四段可知D项错误。
38.D词义理解题。Dr.Home实验的目的是看看通过奖赏是否能够让学生克服困难，出色表现，所以选D。take off意为“脱掉，起飞”.break out意为“爆发”;give off意为“发出”。
39.A推理判断题。短文最后两段得出了答案。
