天津市2019年中考英语试卷(音频暂未更新)

阅读下面的材料.从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

     There are many ways to help improve your health like eating healthy food, taking exercise and getting medical help. But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night. The general sleeping rule is that the younger you are. The longer sleep you need. But regardless of(不管)age, some people need to sleep more while for some a few hours is enough.

    The problem with sleep is that more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough.

    According to the World Health Organization over half the people in the world may be sleep-deprived. Having less sleep not only makes people feel tired but also causes accidents. In the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100,000 traffic accidents a year. Also sleep problems can cause medical problems such as high blood pressure(血压).

    Why are so many people sleep-deprived? Part of the reasons may be cultural. In the American culture, people put a higher value on work than on sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are usually seen as "lazy". Also, you can sometimes hear some people say proudly that they don't have much time to sleep. They only sleep four or five hours a night. It seems that the less you sleep, the more work you'll do.

    How do we teach these people to learn the value of sleep?  Perhaps they may listen to the advice of Dr. James Maas. an expert(专家) in sleep. He says," Sleep is like a credit (信用卡) card. When you sleep less. You are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back. The more hours you don't sleep, the more hours you should t sleep to "pay back" the hours on your 'sleep credit card.'"

    For those who value work more than sleep, they should listen to what a famous person once said. "Don't think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night. That is a foolish(愚蠢的) idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more."

Most people have jobs. They go to work nearly every day. Some people are lucky. They have very interesting jobs and they m{#blank#}1{#/blank#}a lot of money. Most people are not so lucky. Either their jobs are not very interesting or they don't make much money. 

The m{#blank#}2{#/blank#} interesting jobs are often very difficult. It takes people a long time to learn how to do them. Doctors study for at least six years after f{#blank#}3{#/blank#} school. Airline pilots study longer. They have to learn to fly small airplanes f{#blank#}4{#/blank#}, and then slowly move up to bigger and bigger airplanes. Most airline pilots are at least 30 years old. 

Some young people have interesting and well-paid jobs. Many successful athletes are young. Football and tennis stars are usually under 35. Older people usually cannot play these

Most people work until they are 60 or 65 years old. Then they retire (退休) and have a lot of spare time. Some people n{#blank#}6{#/blank#} retire though. These people usually have very interesting jobs. Writers, artists, musicians and actors usually work until they die. Their work is their life.

It's hard to turn down junk food. However, eating too much junk food {#blank#}1{#/blank#} harmful to your body. "For young people aged {#blank#}2{#/blank#} 10 and 19, junk food has a bad influence on their abilities of thinking, learning and memorizing, "said Amy Reichelt, a brain expert. 

Reichelt reviewed over 100 studies about how poor food choices can influence teen brains. She discovered that teenagers who had a high-fat diet performed worse on memory tests {#blank#}3{#/blank#} those who ate a normal diet. 

She also found teenagers were more interested {#blank#}4{#/blank#} foods with a lot of fat and sugar. The prefrontal cortex(前额皮质)of the brain is the part. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} helps us develop the ability to control ourselves. However, this part doesn't fully develop  {#blank#}6{#/blank#} we are in our early 20s. 

{#blank#}7{#/blank#} the same time, teen brains get more excited from rewards(奖励). Eating junk food makes teenagers feel good. Therefore, they can hardly turn down junk food {#blank#}8{#/blank#} they know it is not good for their health. 

So, what's the best way to say no to junk food? Researchers advise people to  {#blank#}9{#/blank#}. That is because when we exercise, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} brains grow and become better able to make smart decisions.
