广东省华南师大附中2010届高三综合测试（一）（英语） 第一节 完形填空（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分） Many of us hold on to little resentment（怨恨）that may come from an argument, a misunderstanding or some other painful events. Stubbornly, we wait for someone else to reach out to us— 21 this is the only way we can forgive or 22 a friendship or family relationship. An acquaintance of mine, whose health isn’t very good, recently told me that she hadn’t spoken to her son in almost three years. “Why not?” I asked. She said that she and her son had had a（n） 23 about his wife and that she wouldn’t speak to him again 24 he called first. When I suggested that she be the one to reach out, she 25 at the beginning and said, “I can’t do that. He’s the one who should apologize. ” She was truly 26 to die before reaching out to her only son first. After a little gentle 27 , however, she did decide to be the first one to reach out. To her amazement, her son was grateful for her willingness to call and 28 an apology of his own. As is usually the case, when someone takes the chance and reaches out, everyone wins. Whenever we hold on to our anger, we turn “small stuff” into really “big stuff” in our minds. We start to believe that our 29 are more important than our happiness. However, if you want to be a more peaceful person, you must understand that being right is almost never more important than 30 yourself to be happy. The way to be happy is to let go and reach out. Let other people be right. This doesn’t mean that you’re wrong. Everything will be fine. You’ll experience the peace of letting go, as well as the joy of letting others be right. You’ll also notice that, as you reach out and let others be “right”, they will become less defensive and more loving toward you.

He is an expert on the causes of the Great Depression. Yet critics say he failed to do his part to prevent the crisis. He has critics in 32 parties. Democrat Chris Dodd, chairman of Senate Banking Committee, says Ben Bernanke did not act fast enough at the start. And many Republicans criticize the Fed chief --- himself a Republican --- for 33 they see as too much spending. But the president's decision to denominate Ben Bernanke 34 （consider）a safe one. In his second term, he will have to consider how and when 35 （withdraw）heavy intervention in the financial industry and raise interest rates. The Fed has reduced short-term rates to almost zero. Heavy government spending could cause inflation 36 officials find just the right time to act. But if they act too soon and raise interest rates too much, the economy could crash again. The White House budget office on Tuesday 37 （low）its estimate for this year's federal deficit（赤字）. The government will probably spend less than it thought 38 the financial system.

And that, 40 the report notes, is higher than desirable. III. 阅读（共两节，满分40分） 第—节 阅渎理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） A Judging from recent surveys, most experts in sleep behaviour agree that there is virtually an epidemic （流行病）of sleepiness in the nation. “I can’t think of a single study that hasn’t found Americans getting less sleep than they ought to,” says Dr. David. Even people who think they are sleeping enough would probably be better off with more rest. The beginning of our sleep-deficit （lack）crises can be traced back to the invention of the light bulb a century ago. From diary entries and our personal accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries, sleep scientists have reached the conclusion that the average person used to sleep about 9. 5 hours a night. “The best sleep habits once were forced on us, when we had nothing to do in the evening down on the farm, and it was dark.” By the 1950s and 1960s, the sleep schedule had been reduced dramatically, to between 7. 5 and 8 hours, and most people had to wake to an alarm clock. “People cheat in their sleep, and they don’t even realize they’re doing it,” says Dr. David. “They think they’re okey because they can get by on 6. 5 hours, when they really need 7. 5, 8 or even more to feel ideally energetic. ” Perhaps the most merciless robber of sleep, researches say, is the complexity of the day. Whenever pressures from work, family, friends and community increase, many people consider sleep the least expensive item on their programme. “In our society, you’re considered dynamic if you say you need only 5. 5 hours’ sleep. If you’ve got to get 8. 5 hours, people think you lack drive and ambition. ” To determine the consequences of sleep-deficit, researchers have put subjects through a set of psychological and performance tests requiring them, for instance, to add columns of numbers or recall a passage read to them only minutes earlier. “We’ve
