25、d. Texas Tech University is even offering a class called Improving Your Sleep Habits. People suffering from sleep loss are at an increased risk from obesity, psychological problems and car crashes. Students who dont get enough sleep have poor attendance and lower grades. On top of all that, (2)a new
26、 study published in the journal Learning and Memory finds you are probably better off sleeping than making last-minute preparations for a test. Two hundred college kids were taught to play some unfamiliar video games. Subjects who learned the games in the morning lost some skills when they played ag
27、ain 12 hours later, (1)but they did much better after getting a good nights sleep. So if you really want to do your job well, dont forget to get some sleep.News Item 2Long queues, delayed flights and overcrowding at airport shave become almost as much a topic for conversation in Britain as the tradi
28、tional complaining about the weather. Meanwhile there are complaints that poor service in Londons major airports is discouraging foreigners from doing business in Britain. Much of the criticism is directed at the British Airports Authority which runs seven major airports, including the three main on
29、es serving in London. (3) The Competition Commission is now to investigate whether the British Airports Authority needs to sell off some of its assets. The idea is the competition between rival operators would lead to better service at airports. The British Airports Authority recently bought by a Sp
30、anish company, says the root cause of the problem is not the ownership structure (4) but a lack of runway and terminal capacity which is addressing through a program of heavy investment.News Item 3(5)Under the law in Massachusetts, tobacco companies have to measure the nicotine content of every type
31、 of cigarette and report the results. The Department of Public Health in Boston gathers and carefully examines the figures and then draws its conclusions. A hundred and sixteen brands were looked at for this study. Ninety-two were found to have higher nicotine yields than they did six years previous
32、ly. （6）The biggest increases tended to be in brands that were popular with young smokers. That worries the department because of the addictive nature of nicotine. Stand Glance, a professor of medicine in San Francisco explains why. “The amount of nicotine thats delivered in every cigarette is 10% hi
33、gher than it was six years ago, which means that it is easier to get hooked and harder to quit. (7)The big tobacco companies have always insisted that they are frank with their customers about the dangers of smoking and provide them with enough detail to make an informed decision. However, none of t
34、hem were prepared to comment on this study or discuss the detailed nicotine content of their products.”Section BConversation 1M: And you know, one thing that I want to ask you. Its great that you have had this experience of teaching in Indonesia and following up on what you just mentioned, what woul
35、d you recommend for students who do not live in an English speaking country and, you know, they want to learn. I dont know about perfecting but they want to at least be able to communicate decently. How can they go about this?W: Yeah, its really hard. Thats the real struggle because, right now, (8)
36、I do live in Holland, but I really dont socialize much with Dutch people and my boyfriends English is so good that we just basically speak English all the time. So I have to make a real effort to practice. There is as much listening exposure as I wantall I have to do is turn on the TV.M: And reading
37、 also, right?W: Yeah, reading. （10）There is plenty I can get to read and listen to, but for speaking, there really is no substitute for trying to speak and use the language in a relaxed atmosphere. (9)So I think thats really the challenge for people who live in a country where their target language
38、isnt spoken. And for that, gosh, what would I do if I didnt have people here, (10) probably try to find a club. In Sweden, they have a really cool system called study circles, well, its not. (11) its like a course. But really, you just have a course leader who is there, sort of, as a coach and guide

40、ules. Like if people jump traffic lights, I dont know why there isnt a camera of the traffic lights to stop people doing that. Or like speeding. Its very easy to put speed cameras in certain places.W: （13）Maybe car manufacturers should have some responsibility in limiting the power of their engines.
41、 Whats the point in producing an engine that is big and powerful enough to go, like 200km/h when the speed limit is only 100?M: （14）Right, but do you know there are no speed limits in Germany?W: People there do drive responsibly, though. Often people break laws simply because the laws are there. If
42、the law isnt there, people will drive within their ability range. When you got speed limits, this creates situations that actually present dangers on the road.M: Do you think Germans have better education about personal responsibility when driving?W: Possibly. They also have very good cars.M: Right.
43、W: If you got a good car that can go at a high speed then its really nice to do that.M: But still, with care.W: So I think its the restrictions that create the dangers sometimes.M: Okay.W: Obviously, when driving through a residential area or where there is a school, youve got to have speed policeme
44、n.M: Speed bumps.W: Yes, speed bumps. Those speed bumps that force you to slow down. I think they are a good idea.M:（15）So you dont think fining people is useful.W: Not really, because the police dont have time to police every single driver.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.Section CPassage 1Behind the cash register at a store in downtown San Francisco, Sam Azar swiped his credit card to pay for a pack of cigarettes. （16）The stores card reader failed to scan the cards magnetic strip.
