1、阳高一中高二下学期英语期末考试试卷一. 阅读理解 (共两节, 满分60分)第一节 (共15小题；每小题3分, 满分45分)A A group of people from Denmark have formed the B-Society. According to them, human beings are divided into types: A-People, and B-People. A-People have no problem getting up in the morning, and operate much better earlier in the day. How
2、ever, B-people are better later in the day. “Im useless early in the morning,” says one of the members of the B-Society.”All I can do is drink coffee, and stare into space. People used to get up early because they had to feed the animals. But I havent got any cows or chickens, so I can sleep late,”
3、She adds. Since the society was set up, the B-Society has welcomed several thousand members. Right now, the B-Society is fighting hard for businesses to join its B-certification (证明) list.

5、ext year, a school in Copenhagen will offer classes which start later in the day (at 10 instead of eight). And even the government seems to like the idea.

6、 are considered at the work place, their productivity (生产力) and quality of life is increased, which can increase productivity for the entire organization.” She adds that, “B-Society will create a new daily rhythm in schools and other institutions (机构) as an alternative to the current rhythm of early
