D

About three decades ago, China was known as the ―Bicycle Kingdom‖. But later on bikes were replaced by their fuel-powered competitors.

But recent months have seen a revival of the humble bike across China, with an increasing number of people choosing cycling instead of driving to schools, to workplaces or to do sightseeing. The introduction of bike-sharing schemes, pioneered by start-ups like Ofo and Mobike, has brought the trend to a new level.

People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphone. The bikes are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. They’re popular among many Chinese people as

they provide an effective solution to the ―last mile‖ problem, which refers to the final leg of a person’s journey.

―In places where the subway doesn’t extend, where it’s difficult to change from one kind of transport to another, it’s so easy to get where you want to go with Mobike,‖ Hu Hong, 29, told AFP. She pedals to her Shanghai real-estate job.

However, the schemes have also led to problems such as illegal parking, vandalism and theft.Last month, two nurses in Beijing were placed under administrative punishmentfor five days for putting locks on two shared bikes.And in December, a man who stole a shared bike was sentenced to a 3-month detention with a 3-month probation, and fined 1,000 yuan by the Shanghai Minhang People’s Court.

―Bike-sharing is a greener method of transportation and provides a user-friendly experience,‖ said Liu Xiaoming, vice-minister of transport. ―But it’s a combination of online and offline business. Operators are usually strong in online services, but lack offline business experience, which causes problems.‖To deal with these problems, the company came up with the idea of encouraging people to return the bikes to stations by rewarding free time for their next rides.

第二节 （共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Are you sick of going to bed late and waking up tired? _______36_______ A new study suggests that a couple days of camping in the great outdoors can reset your circadian clock and help you get more sleep.

The circadian clock, more commonly known as the body clock, is an internal system that tells our bodies when it’s time to go to sleep and when it’s time to wake up. _______37_______

In a healthy sleeper, melatonin levels rise a few hours before bedtime, stay high through the night, and then settle back down when it’s time to wake up.

In our modern society, however, most of us stay up many hours past sunset and would probably sleep in many hours after sunrise if we could. _______38_______ It may also have other health consequences as

well, such as diabetes, overweight and heart disease.

Professor Kenneth Wright of the University of Colorado in the US wanted to see if our body clocks can be reset by a short stay in nature. _______39_______ Nine went on a weekend camping trip, while the other five stayed home.

At the end of the weekend, the researchers reported that in just two days, the campers’ body clocks had shifted so that their melatonin levels began to rise more than an hour earlier than they did before they left on the trip. _______40_______

A. He prepared a lot for the research, and asked many friends to help him.

B. By contrast, the body clocks of the group that stayed home shifted even later over the course of the weekend.

C. Scientists track this clock by measuring the amount of melatonin (褪黑激素) circulating in a person’s blood at any given time.

D. Now you have a good solution.

E. His team recruited14 physically active volunteers in their 20s and 30s. F. Then grab your hiking boots and a tent.

G. And the trouble is, your melatonin levels may still be high when your alarm clock goes off in the morning, which leads to grogginess.

36【答案】F

【解析】前一句为提出问题，那么该空应该给出解决方法。且下一句的关键词camping, 36题grab your hiking boots and a tent为这个关键词的具体做法。F正好符合。 37【答案】C

【解析】由37题的位置可知，其作用为承上启下。37前面讲的是the circadian clock的作用，下一段则提出了melatonin levels这一新话题。那么37选项中必定包含这两个关键信息，故选择C。 38【答案】G

【解析】根据后一句的代词―It‖可知，前一句的主语为物。同时，后面提到了it may also have other health consequences as well, 可以推断38题里面必然提到相关的健康问题。符合这两项的只有G。
