(2019年湖南师大附中高三上学期第四次月考)
It's every parent's worst nightmare. __1__. Now scientists say they have found a better way to wake up sleeping youngsters. Researchers in the US have discovered that playing a child a recording of their mother's voice is about three times more likely to wake them than a traditional alarm. Moreover, they can escape more quickly.
Dr Gary Smith, a coauthor of the research from the Nationwide Children's hospital in Ohio and his colleagues report how they compared the effects of four different smoke alarms on 176 children aged between 5 and 12 years old. __2__. While one alarm featured a highpitched beep, the other three featured the voice of the child's mother calling either the child's name, giving instructions such as: “Wake up! Leave the room!”, or both. Each child slept in a labbased room that resembled a real bedroom, and was shown how to escape from the room before they went to bed. They each experienced all four alarms—the order of which was chosen randomly.
__3__. About 90% of children woke for a vocal alarm compared with just over
9
53% for the traditional alarm. In addition, the children shook off their sleep faster, with a median(中位数) value of two seconds for the voice alarm compared with more than two and a half minutes for the traditional alarm. __4__.
Prof Niamh Nic Daéid, director of the Leverhulme Research Centre at the University of Dundee, said the research supported by her team found a human voice combined with a lowfrequency pulsing tone was far more effective in waking children than a traditional highpitched alarm. __5__, which might have made them more responsive to an alarm, while more work was needed to explore whether other familiar sounds, such as a dog barking, might also prove effective in waking up children.
A.But she noted that the latest study involved children sleeping in a location other than their own bedroom
B.But she said it was important to look at developing better alarms
C.None of them had hearing difficulties or were taking any medication that affected their sleep
D.The results show that voice alarms appear to be more effective than highpitched beeps
E.What's more, it does so faster and is linked to a quicker escape
F.There's a fire in the house; the alarms are beeping, but the children are in deep sleep
G.Similarly, escaping time was longer in the cases of the beeping alarms
答案与解析
孩子们在紧急情况下,针对不同的警报声,作出反应的时间上的差距。
1.F 该空是对nightmare的解释。
2.C 上文提到该实验是针对176 children aged between 5 and 12 years old进行的,后文进一步说明这群小孩的情况。
3.D 空处是本段的主题句,说明实验的结果,从D项的results就可以得出答案。
4.G 实验结果表明:当警报是妈妈的声音时,孩子更快地从睡梦中被叫醒了,叫醒所需的时间中位数是2秒。相比之下,传统警报所需时间的中位数超过 2.5 分钟。同样,当警报是“哔哔”声时,逃跑所需的时间更长。
5.A Prof Niamh Nic Daéid说“研究表明: a human voice combined with a
9
lowfrequency pulsing tone was far more effective in waking children than a traditional highpitched alarm”。后文是一个转折,表明她的观点。
Ⅳ.完形填空
“Whoa! What are you doing?” I asked. I had just walked into my daughter's room as she was __1__ a science project. Normally, I would have been pleased at such a(n) __2__. But this time, her project involved much sand. __3__ she'd put some plastic under her work area, it wasn't nearly enough. The sand was __4__ all over our newly renovated(整修的) floor.
My daughter immediately felt my displeasure and began to __5__ herself. “I used plastic!” she responded angrily. I responded more __6__, “But the sand is getting all over!”“Where else am I supposed to do it?” she __7__.
Why won't she admit when she has done something __8__? I felt my __9__, thinking of the future: what would her life look like if she couldn't admit her mistakes?
My fear translated into more anger, this time about how __10__ it was for her to admit mistakes. We had a __11__. She said something that I felt disrespectful to me and I __12__ my voice. Both of us ended up __13__ terrible. I wished this __14__ happened before.
So I thought that I needed a good __15__ to respond to my daughter. For this, I went to my wife, Eleanor, who was truly a master. I asked her how I should have __16__ it.
“Sweetie,” she said, roleplaying me in the __17__ with my daughter, “There's a lot of sand here and we need to __18__ it up before it destroys the floor, how can I help”?That's really a great way to deal with it: first __19__ the problem, next state what needs to happen and then offer to __20__. It's simple, right? However, it's really helpful in solving some problems in life.
