9、eys and thin or poorly fitting windows and doors. A passive house loses almost none.Imagine a thermos（保温瓶）,said housing developer Brendan ONeill.You have insulation（隔绝） everywhere, and its basically completely sealed. And so the idea is to build a house like a thermos. So the windows are sealed. The

10、res insulation completely surrounding the building. We make it as sealed as possible.A 147-square-meter passive house, presented by ONeill Development Corp. as a demonstration unit just outside Washington, was brought to the site in two boxes.Once its set and put together, it takes about four weeks

11、to complete the outside construction, to put down carpets,ONeill said.If everything is set in place, you put a house like this together in about four months.”The total cost of building it was $325,000, or about 17 percent more than constructing an ordinary house. But its utility（公用事业） bill is only a

12、round $20 monthly, or one-tenth the amount for the average house of the same size.While passive houses have been around for a long time, the idea has never taken root in the U.S. There was no driving force to push it.However, David Peabody, an architect who designs passive houses said,I think climat

13、e change is now becoming a larger issue. And I think building standards are catching on to that. So people are becoming more aware of energy.Peabody said the cost of building passive houses could come down.What really makes sense for truly affordable housing,he said,is to build multi-storey building

14、s.21. Why arent ordinary family homes energy-efficient?A.Building them wastes much energy.B.Their energy mainly goes to heating and cooling.C.Their sealing performance is poor.D.They have no insulation around at all.22.

According to scientis

18、ts, the thought isnt as unbelievable as it seems.A study found going without sleep for just one night causes changes in the brain similar to those that occur after a blow to the head. The researchers said the healthy young men examined in the study showed a sudden increase in the same chemicals whic

19、h indicate brain damage. Professor Christian Benedict, of Uppsala University, Sweden, explained that the chemicals NSE and S-100B are biomarkers for brain damage, such as concussion（脑震荡）. He said,What we found was their levels in the blood rose in the group that went without sleep for a night. This

20、was not to the extent that would happen after a head injury, for instance, but it was still significant. During sleep, the brain cleans poisonous substances off itself.Benedict also said previous studies which linked a lack of sleep with increased risk of Alzheimers, Parkinsons and multiple sclerosi

21、s could applaud his study. The rise of the chemicals in the blood after sleep loss may suggest not getting enough sleep contributes to a loss of brain tissue, he explained. Benedict, whose study is published in the journalSleep, added,In conclusion, the findings of our experiment indicate a good nig

22、hts sleep may be critical to maintaining brain health.A third of the UK population suffer from sleep-related problems, while the average person now sleeps for only seven hours a night, compared with almost nine a few decades ago. Many scientists believe irregular sleeping patterns lead to illnesses

23、ranging from aches and pains to heart disease, while less than eight hours sleep a night can lower the IQ the next day.24. If you dont sleep for a night, what will happen?A.NSE and S-100B will increase.B.The brain damage will be likea head injury.C.You will suffer from concussion.D.The brain will ge

Whats the main idea of the passage?A.Eight hours sleep is important.B.Regular sleeping patterns improve health.C.Sleep loss is close to a blow to the head.

26、D.Human brains work during sleep.24.A25.C26.B27.C26.B考查推理判断。根据文章最后一段中的less than eight hours sleep a night can lower the IQ the next day可知,睡眠少于八小时的人第二天智商会降低,这暗示人的智力在某种程度上受睡眠的影响。故B项正确。27.C考查主旨要义。根据文章内容,尤其是第一段及第二段的首句可知,本文主要围绕睡眠不足对大脑造成的损伤接近于头部遭重击这一主题展开。故C项最能概括文章的大意,而其他选项都比较片面。故选C。【学法指导】抓住文章主线和关键词语，归纳文章中

27、心要注意不是所有的段落都有主题句，有时主题句暗含在句中。阅读这样的文章，就需要自己根据文章的细节来分析，概括出段落的主题，从而推导出文章的主旨。分析的方法是：先弄清该段落主要讲了哪几方面的内容，这些内容在逻辑上有什么联系，然后加以归纳形成主题。考查科普类说明文CIt seems that the great desire among the young is to be popular.
