I am thinking, for example, of the first night in a hotel at the start of your holidays, a night st
20、aying with friends, or the first night of a business trip.FNE, or first night effect, has been known of for a long time. So far, scientists havent been able to come up with a reasonable explanation for it, which has kept sleep researcher Masako Tamaki awake at night. So, she brought together a team
21、of experts in human brain processes and began to look for answers. After examining dozens of brains of people while they slept in a new place, they found that the activity of both hemispheres （半球）of the brain was obviously different from normal.In a new place, we sleep a little like some animals. On
22、e hemisphere falls asleep completely, but the other remains alert （警惕）.This is what happens with, for example, dolphins. In humans, the second hemisphere also goes to sleep, but this is an unusually shallow sleep. This is in order to react to possible threats （威胁）.Of course, in the majority of cases
23、, we are not at risk of being tom apart by a tiger, but evolutionary （进化的）changes have not kept pace with our lifestyle changes. This is why, during the first night in a new environment, almost any noise can wake us up: the creaking of a door, or the distant barking of a puppy. In most cases, the le
24、ft hemisphere is on night watch. Will we always be like this? Another scientist, Yuki Sasaki, says that, because of the relative peace and security of our existence, over time this function of the human brain will be lost.Meanwhile, when turning out the light in a new place, its best to give up on a

The solution to her sleeping problem.D. The secret of human brain processes.19. What happens when humans are in a new plac
26、e?A. They change their lifestyle.B. They function like animals.C. They face possible threats when asleep.D. They sleep with part of the brain alert.20. What can be inferred about FNE?A. It will be harmful to human brain.B. It is necessary for human security.C. It will not disappear in a short time.D
27、. It has little influence on human sleep.21. Which section of a website is the passage probably from?A. Science. B. Travel.C. History.D. Lifestyle.DIn the early 1970s American women gave birth, on average, to 2.12 children each. By 2018 that number had fallen to 1.73. Jordan Nickerson and David Solo
28、mon, professors at MIT, think they have found an interesting factor which help explain this change: Americas increasingly protective child car-seat laws.Their study examines the effect that car-seat policies may have had on American birth rates. During the 1980s, only the children aged under three h
29、ad to be secured in child-safety seats. But since then, the requirements have been slowly increased. Today, most places in America make children sit in safety seats until their eighth birthdays. That concern for youngsters safety has had the unexpected consequence of fewer three-child families.In dr
30、awing this conclusion they have connected population data with changes in state laws on safety seats. They discovered that stricter laws had no noticeable effects on the rates of births of first and second children, but with a drop, on average, of 0.73 percentage points in the number of women giving
31、 birth to a third while the first two were young enough to need safety seats.The professors also made two other related observations. The reduction they saw was limited to families that did actually have access to a car. And space in the vehicle is the important factor. In pre-safety-seat days, putt
32、ing three young children into the back of a family car was a perfectly practical advice. Most such cars, though, can comfortably accommodate only two safety seats, So, as the child car-seat laws change, a family must wait longer time for a third child to fit in the car. Sometimes, that wait will mea
33、n no third child is ever bom.Unless, of course, the family concerned buys a bigger car. But average families have the obvious reasons not to do so big cars cost more, and are more costly to run. Interestingly, Dr Nickerson and Dr Solomon found that the third-child deterrent （遏制作用）appears even strong
34、er among wealthier families. As they observe, large cars may reflect their real status and taste, which may make people unwilling to switch even when they can afford to.”22. What is the passage mainly about?A. Changes in American car-seat laws.B. Ways to ensure childrens safety in cars.C. Influence
35、of car-seat laws on American birthrate.D. The connection between cars and American birthrate.23. What contributes to fewer three-child families according to Paragraph 4?A. The space of the family car.B. The familys economic status.C. The quality of child safety seats.D. The desire to have a third ch
36、ild.24. What can be inferred about big cars from the last paragraph?A. They are a symbol of wealth.B. They are affordable to most families.C. They are more popular among richer families.D. They are unable to solve child birth rates problem.25. How did the two professors reach the conclusion of their

38、r rude. For example: We ask a lady Oh, when is the baby due?” when the lady is not actually pregnant （怀孕的）一 shes just quite overweight. When we make a faux pas, we often realize our mistake immediately, but its too late.26 Generally speaking, dont try to hide the mistake. This will always make the s
39、ituation worse. Apologizing is not the solution, either. In fact, trying to apologize will probably make the situation much worse.The most effective method is the story method. So before reacting, take a deep breath, keep calm and follow the simple story rule: tell a story - of a bigger, more seriou
40、s faux pas. 27 If you tell the story quickly and in a convincing way, your embarrassment will disappear.28 This one works best when you are the victim （受害者）of a faux pas.
