第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Passage 1
If you're feeling sleepy during the day even though you had a good night's sleep, it may be a sign of an underactive thyroid (甲状腺).
The thyroid, a small gland (腺体) in your neck, produces hormones (激素) that control your metabolism, among other things. When it
doesn't make enough hormones, your body slows down. This can lead to tiredness and fatigue.
Other symptoms of an underactive thyroid include weight gain, feeling cold, dry skin, constipation (便秘), and poor concentration. If you have these symptoms, see your doctor. They can order a blood test to determine if your thyroid is functioning properly.
Passage 2
Are you worried that you're not getting enough sleep? Here are some helpful tips to improve your sleep quality:
1. Establish a bedtime routine. Going to bed and waking up at consistent times helps regulate your body's internal clock. Try to stick to a schedule as much as possible.
2. Create a sleep-friendly environment. Make sure your bedroom is dark, quiet, and cool. Consider using earplugs, eyeshades, or a white noise machine if necessary.
3. Avoid electronic devices before bed. The blue light emitted by electronic devices can interfere with your body's production of melatonin, the hormone that helps regulate sleep.
4. Limit caffeine intake. Caffeine is a stimulant and can interfere with sleep. Avoid consuming caffeine in the late afternoon and evening.
5. Exercise regularly. Regular physical activity can improve sleep quality. However, avoid exercising too close to bedtime as it can increase alertness and make it harder to fall asleep.
6. Manage stress. Stress and anxiety can interfere with sleep. Find healthy ways to manage stress, such as practicing relaxation techniques or talking to a therapist.
Remember, everyone's sleep needs are different. Experiment with these tips and find what works best for you.
21. What does an underactive thyroid often cause?
- A. Insomnia (失眠).
- B. Weight loss.
- C. Fatigue.
- D. Hyperactivity.
22. What can interfere with the production of melatonin? - A. Regular exercise.
- B. Electronic devices.

- D. Caffeine intake.
23. When should people avoid consuming caffeine?

- C. To discuss the symptoms of an underactive thyroid.
- D. To explore the effects of electronic devices on sleep.
Passage 3
According to recent studies, regular reading can have numerous positive effects on your brain and overall well-being.
In addition, reading fiction books has been found to increase empathy and emotional intelligence. When we read stories, we are exposed to different perspectives and emotions, which helps us understand and relate to others better.
Furthermore, reading can reduce stress and improve mental health. It provides an escape from daily pressures and allows the mind to relax and recharge. Research has shown that reading can lower heart rate and blood pressure, promoting a sense of calm and well-being.
Lastly, reading can improve sleep quality. Reading before bed can be a calming ritual that signals to your brain that it is time to wind down
and prepare for sleep. However, it is important to avoid reading exciting or stimulating material, as this can have the opposite effect.
Overall, reading is a powerful tool for personal growth and well-being. Make time for reading in your daily routine and reap the benefits it brings.
