21．（6分）Good books take readers on journeys in their minds. The announcement of this year’s US
National Book Awards finalists has highlighted a number of modem literary treasures. Here are two standouts to add to your reading list.
♦ A Little Life
A Little Life follows four university friends, Jude, Willem, J
B and Malcolm, who start their adult lives in New York City after graduating from a famous New England college. They attend parties，go on dates and gain professional success.
What sets this novel a part is that Yanagihara explores larger issues through her work. As the story unfolds, Jude’s mysterious and painful past appears. When Jude’s friends try to help him, they start to realize the limits of love. Sadly, they struggle to accept what can’t be h elped.
Yanagihara rids the novel of any significant events and important figures in New York. This gives readers a sense of closeness and allows them to make close connections with the characters’ emotional lives.
♦ Between the World and Me
Ta-Nehisi Coates, a journalist, explains what it means to be an African-American in the US in his latest book Between the World and Me.
Drawing from the style of James Baldwin’s 1963 book The Fire Next Time, Coates addresses the wild racism (种族歧视) in the US. Interestin gly, the book is written in the form of an open letter to Coates’ 14-year-old son Samori. Through its pages, Coates hopes to prepare Samori for the challenges that young African-Americans face on the street and even in school. Coates shares his tough childhood in West Baltimore and his inspiring college life at Howard University.
What makes this book stand out is Coates’ great writing skill. The language of Between the World and Me, like Coates’ journey, is vivid and attractive.
1、What do the four characters in the first novel have in common?
A．They all live a happy life.
B．They all had a painful past
C．They all do well in their jobs.
D．They all dislike to attend parties.
2、What do Jude’s friends do with his problem?
A．They refuse to do anything.
B．They only offer a little help.
C．They succeed in helping him out.
D．They try to help but could do little.
3、Why does Coates write the open letter to his son?
A．To let the public know the unfair racism.
B．To teach him how to deal with racism.
C．To warn people of the harm of racism.
D．To call on people to get rid of racism.
22．（8分）Women in East Asia are putting tiny pegs into their nostrils so their nose could look more
European. The beauty trend apparently started from South Korea about two years ago and has spread to Japan, Chinese mainland and Taiwan, where women with a pointier European nose are considered more attractive.
The beauty trend, however, has sparked serious health concerns. In a recent case from China, a woman reportedly swallowed a peg by accident and the small item was later found in her stomach.
The non-surgical nose-lifting trend apparently involves a set of tools which are popular on shopping websites in East and South-east Asia. A typical set consists of two small curved pegs, measuring two to three centimetres long, as well as one adjusting hook.
The most popular brand seems to come from South Korea, but various other copycat products have cropped up and sell for as little as 1 pound. According to the instructions online, users should first insert the two pegs into their nostrils respectively. The pegs are said to be made with silicone. Then they should use the hook to adjust the pegs so they stand in a 45-degree angle inside the nose. One seller on China’s popular shopping site, Taobao, claimed tha t because the product was invisible, it could be a woman’s secret weapon in getting a beautiful nose without surgery.
An advertisement posted by the seller said the product, said to be “anti-bacteria”, could change the sh
ape of a nose in less than 10 seconds and is safe to use. However, potential customers are advised not to wear them for more than eight hours.
Although the nasal pegs are popular among beauty-conscious females, they have also brought health issues to the
customers. Last November, a 25-year-old woman in Taipei nearly lost her nose after a peg poked through her nasal membrane and caused a bacterial infection, according to Apple Daily.
1、Why do women put tiny pegs into their nose?
A．To be a European. B．To look more appealing.
C．To follow the trend. D．To be smarter.
2、According to the seller on Taobao, what advantage does the peg have?
A．It is made from silicone. B．It is a bacteria-free product.
C．It is hidden and non-surgical. D．It costs as little as 1 pound.
3、What message does the passage mainly convey to people?
A．The most popular brand peg comes from South Korea.
B．Women in East Asia are putting tiny pegs into their nostrils.
C．People should be cautious about using beauty pegs.
D．A pointier European nose is in fashion at present.
4、Who are intended readers of the passage?
A．Girls in their teens. B．Beauty-conscious females.
C．Scientists and doctors. D．Potential peg producers.
23．（8分）Judging from recent surveys, most experts in sleep behavior agree that there is virtually an epidemic(流行病)of sleepiness in the nation. “I can’t think of a single study that hasn’t found Americans getting less sleep than they ought to,” says Dr. David. Even people who think they are sleeping enough would probably be better off with more rest.
The beginning of our sleep-deficit (睡眠不足)crisis can be traced to the invention of the light bulb a century ago. From diary entries and other personal accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries, sleep scientists have reached the conclusion that the average person used to sleep about 9. 5 hours a night. "The best sleep habits once were forced on us, when we had nothing to do in the evening down on the farm, and it was dark." By the 1950s and 1960s, that sleep schedule had been reduced dramatically, to between 7.5 and 8 hours, and most people had to wake to an alarm clock. "People cheat on their sleep, and they don't even realize they're doing it," says Dr David. "They think they're okay because they can get by on 6.5 hours, when they really need 7.5, 8 or even more to feel ideally energetic."
Perhaps the most merciless robber of sleep, researchers say, is the complexity of the day. When ever pressures from work, family, friends and community mount, many people consider sleep the least expensive item on his programme. "In our society, you're considered dynamic if you say you only need 5.5 hours' sleep. If you've got to get 8.5 hours, people think you lack drive and ambition."
To determine the consequences of sleep deficit, researchers have put subjects through a set of psychological and
