Task 1
Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 through 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice.
People who work night shifts are constantly fighting against an "internal clock" in their bodies. Quite often the clock tells them to sleep when their job requires them to remain fully awake. It's no wonder that more accidents happen during night shifts than at any other time. Light therapy (阳光治疗法) with a bright light box can help night-shift workers adjust their internal clock. However, many doctors recommend careful planning to help improve sleep patterns. For example, night-shift workers often find it difficult to sleep in the morning when they get off work because the body's natural rhythm (节律) fights back, no matter how tired they are. Some experts recommend that night-shift workers schedule two smaller sleep periods—one in the morning after work, and another longer one in the afternoon, closer to when the body would naturally need to sleep. It's also helpful to ask friends and family to cooperate by avoiding visits and phone calls during the times when you are sleeping.
Night-shift workers are those who_________.
A.have to rely on their internal clock
B.need to re-adjust their clock
C.fall asleep late at night
D.have to work at night

Welt, before you start asking your dog why it can"t be more 26 like animals half its size, it"s probably worth 27 each animal"s place in the food chain. You see, the lower down the food chain you are, the more important it is for you to hide any sign of illness. Obvious illness or pain28 as red flags for predators. You may as well wear a sign saying, "Easy meal, guys. Come and get me."
Now, even small dogs are 29 programmed to function like predators,which 30 considering they are close relatives of wolves. And birds——you can probably 31 why the only way you"d find out your bird is sick is when it dies.
The situation with cats,32 dogs and birds, is much more interesting. On the one hand, cats are predators, but on the other, they"re small enough to be prey.
So how can you tell if your smaller pets need 33 attention? For one thing,trust your feelings. No one knows your pets like you do, so if you notice even very 34 changes in habits and behavior, you may want to have a vet look them over. For a cat, other signs of illness might be that it has stopped grooming, is losing weight,35more or less than usual, or missing the litter box.
