People always believe that counting sheep【1】(be) helpful to their sleep. But does it【2】(real) work?
Scientists at Oxford University tested it. Two sleep researchers looked at the people who had【3】(difficult) in sleeping. They divided them【4】different groups. Then they asked them to try all kinds of ways to help【5】(they) fall asleep quickly.
Surprisingly, it【6】(take) those who were asked to count sheep more time to fall asleep than those who weren’t. But when they were asked to imagine a relaxing picture-- a beach, for e【7】, they fell asleep about twenty minutes【8】(soon) than before, according to a report in The New York Times.
“Sometimes, counting tasks are OK, b【9】they are thought as stressful by many people,” Dr. Richards told ABC News.
“As【10】result, it may be a good way to try imagining colored fish slowly swimming in a river to help you sleep at night,” suggested Richards.

【解析】
很多人都有睡眠問題,于是他們采取數(shù)羊的方法來使自己入睡,但這個方法有用嗎?科學家經(jīng)實驗發(fā)現(xiàn)這種方法不一定管用,Richard博士告訴我們想象彩色的魚在水里慢慢游泳,這個方法可能比較好。
【1】句意:人們總是相信數(shù)羊對他們的睡眠是有幫助的。這是一個主從復合句,believe后跟了一個賓語從句,從句中主語是counting sheep,動名詞形式,謂語動詞應用單數(shù),短文使用了一般現(xiàn)在時態(tài),故這里應填is。
【2】句意:但是它真的有用嗎?real真的,是一個形容詞。根據(jù)句意和句子結構可知,這個詞修飾的是后面的動詞work,故應用副詞形式,填really。
【3】句意:兩名睡眠研究人員觀察了那些睡眠有困難的人。difficult困難的,是一個形容詞。此處使用了句型have difficulty in doing sth.做某事有困難,故應填名詞形式difficulty。
【4】句意:他們把他們分成不同的小組。句中divide意思是“劃分”,常用于短語divide …into..把…分成…。故這里填into。
【5】句意:然后他們要求這些人嘗試各種各樣的方法幫助自己快速睡眠。they他們,是人稱代詞主格形式?涨help是動詞,故這里應填賓格形式them或者反身代詞themselves他們自己。
【6】句意:令人驚訝的是,那些被要求數(shù)羊的人比那些沒有被要求數(shù)羊的人要花費更多的時間入睡。take花費,是一個動詞。這句話中使用了句型It takes +一段時間+to do sth.花費一段時間做某事。根據(jù)文意可知,介紹這個實驗時使用的是一般過去時態(tài),故這里應填過去式took。
【7】句意:但是根據(jù)《紐約時報》的報道,當他們被要求想象一幅放松的畫面時—比如海灘,他們入睡就比以前快了20分鐘。example例子,這里for example是固定短語,表示舉例,“例如”,故這里填example。
【8】句意:但是根據(jù)《紐約時報》的報道,當他們被要求想象一幅放松的畫面時—比如海灘,他們入睡就比以前快了20分鐘。soon快,不久,根據(jù)句意和空后的than可知,這里應填比較級形式sooner。
【9】句意:有時候,數(shù)羊是可以的,但是很多人認為他們有壓力。根據(jù)句意前半句counting tasks are OK, 和后面they are thought as stressful可知,他們之間是轉折的關系,故這里填but但是。
【10】句意:Richard建議說:“結果,嘗試想象彩色的魚在河里慢慢游泳可能是一個幫助你睡覺的很好的方法!边@里考查了短語as a result,結果,這是句子的開頭,第一個字母要大寫,故填As。
這篇短文給我們介紹的是科學家對數(shù)羊這種使人們入睡的方法做的實驗,證明這個方法并不一定有用。文章內容貼近學生們的日常生活,比較容易理解。題型是用所給單詞的正確形式填空或填寫適當?shù)膯卧~,考查單詞在具體語境中的使用,空格后有提示詞的應根據(jù)單詞在句中的作用以及句中使用的句型,改變單詞的形式。這種考查形式常涉及實詞的用法,如名詞的單復數(shù)、動詞的時態(tài)、語態(tài)、非謂語動詞等;沒有給提示詞的,應根據(jù)文意填寫適當?shù)膯卧~。這時?疾樘撛~的用法,如介詞、冠詞、連詞等。例如第2小題,所給單詞real是形容詞,但在句中這個詞是來修飾后面的動詞work的,應用副詞形式,故填really。再如第9小題,考查了連詞but,根據(jù)句意前半句counting tasks are OK, 和后面they are thought as stressful可知,他們之間是轉折的關系,故填but。
