一、英语任务型阅读
1．从A-F中选择其中五个填入短文中相应空格处，其中一个选项是多余。

Giving directions in different places
If you ask people of different countries "Could you tell me the way to the post office?", you will get different answers.
In Japan, people use landmarks instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, "Go straight down to the corner. ________ The post office is across from the bus stop." In Kansas, America, there are no towns or buildings within miles. So instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. For example, people will say, "Go north two miles ________".
People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions. They will often say, "Follow me." ________ Sometimes if a person doesn't know the answer to your question, he or she, like a New Yorker, might say, "Sorry, I have no idea." But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers "I don't know". ________ They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. A visitor can often get lost in Yucatan!
________ You might not understand a person's words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually point to the correct direction. Go on in that direction and you may find the post office!

"Yes," the woman answered weakly and lowered her head.

Something was wrong. But I only explained that it might take a while before a doctor could meet them. "Take your time, please," said the mother. I checked their charts－no address. All of a sudden I knew they were homeless while the hospital was warm.
The family huddled（蜷缩）together under the Christmas tree, smiling and talking with each other sweetly. Quietly, I went back to the nurses' station and told them what happened in the waiting room. It was just like God sending us a gift on this Christmas night. The nurses' station suddenly came back to life. All the nurses went into action for "a Christmas emergency（急诊）".

【解析】【分析】文章大意：通过不同工作人群的睡眠模式的调查结果写出的一份调查报告，说明选择工作时考虑睡眠模式很重要。

（1）句意：上表显示了从事不同工作的人的睡眠模式。

根据表格第一行的student，truck driver，full time mother等内容可知，这是对不同工作人群所做的调查。

此句需要形容词表示不同的，故填different。

（2）句意：例如，学生每晚连续睡9个小时，因为他们白天上学。

根据表格中第二行的第一列的数据可知，学生睡觉9个小时，故填9 hours。

（3）句意：商务主管很忙，压力很大，所以他们只睡6个小时。

根据表格中的第二行第五列内容可知，睡眠时间达到六个小时的人员是企业主管，故填Business executive。

（4）句意：卡车司机睡6个小时，医生睡眠时间是这五类人员中最短的。

根据表格中第二行的内容可知，医生睡眠时间是5个小时，是所有被调查的人员中最少的一类，故填shortest/fewest。

（5）句意：最后，全职妈妈会在宝宝睡觉的时候睡觉。

根据表格第三行的内容可知，全职妈妈的睡觉时间就是孩子的睡觉时间，故填full-time。
