A 【详解】

考查非谓语动词。句意：Lucy非常幽默，总是能用她讲的故事逗她的同事们开心。这里考查keep的复合结构（keep+宾语+宾补），keep的复合结构中不能用不定式做宾补，所以先排除C、D；然后再根据\"keep her colleagues______with her stories\"Lucy总是能用她讲的故事逗她的同事们开心可知，宾语her colleagues与amuse之间是动宾关系，也就是被动关系，所以用过去分词amused，表示被动，故选A。

三、 阅读理解

21. Weighing too much can damage your health, and obesity is a growing problem for both kids and adults around the world. Sleep might be one answer to the problem. A new study has found that elementary school students who slept too little were more likely to gain pounds.

Past studies have shown a link between sleeping less and weighing more, but scientists have had a tough time determining\"which came first, the chicken or the egg,\"says Julie C. Lumeng of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. In other words, it hasn’t been clear whether kids who weigh too much have trouble sleeping, or whether sleeping less leads to weight gain. Both scenarios(可能出现的情况) seemed equally possible.

To get a better idea of which causes which, Lumeng and her colleagues interviewed the parents of 785 third graders from around the United States. The parents answered questions about how well their kids slept that year. Three years later, the parents answered the same questions. By sixth grade, 18 percent of kids involved in the study were obese.

The scientists found no relationship between weight and the students’ race or gender. It also didn’t matter how strict their parents were, or whether they were boys or girls. Obesity struck all of these groups equally. Instead, sleep seemed to be the key factor. Over the 3 years of the study, the children averaged a healthy 9.5 hours of sleep a night. Some kids, however, slept a lot more — or less — than others.

For the sixth graders, every hour of sleep above the 9.5-hour average was linked to a 20 percent lower risk of being obese. Sleep appeared doubly important for the third graders. Every extra hour of sleep they got was linked to a 40 percent drop in obesity.

28．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 imply? A.Scientists have found the exact causes of children’s obesity. B.There is always something difficult to understand through theory. C.The cause-effect relationship between weight and sleep isn’t clear. D.A person’s weight has something to do with the amount of his sleep. 29．What did the interview find out?

A.9.5 hours of sleep a night is enough for children. B.The more a child sleeps, the healthier he will be. C.Six graders need much more sleep than third graders. D.One’s race or gender has nothing to do with his weight. 30．How does the author develop the passage? A.By listing figures.

B.By comparing different opinions.

C.By providing examples.

D.By conducting a survey.

31．What is the suitable title for the passage? A.The benefits of enough sleep for children B.Sleeping less increases the risk of obesity C.Which comes first, little sleep or obesity? D.How many hours of sleep do children need?

参：

28．C

29．D 30．A 31．B

28．考查句意理解。画线句表示的字面意思是\"先有鸡还是先有蛋\结合上下文的内容可知,文章引用这句话是为了表明\"是睡眠少导致了肥胖还是肥胖导致了睡眠变少\"这个问题还没有定论。下文的\"In other words, it hasn’t been clear whether kids who weigh too much have trouble sleeping, or whether sleeping less leads to weight gain. Both scenarios(可能出现的情况) seemed equally possible\"是解题的关键提示信息。

29．考查细节理解。根据第四段中的\"The scientists found no relationship between weight and the students’ race or gender\"可知选D。

30．考查写作手法。文章主要介绍了一项研究,并列举了很多同该研究相关的数据,故选A。 31．考查标题判断。根据文章内容尤其是第一段中的\"A new study has found that elementary school students who slept too little were more likely to gain pounds\"可知,本文主要介绍了一项新的研究发现,睡眠少会增加肥胖的概率。故B项作文章标题最佳。

【备注】本文是说明文。一项新的研究发现,睡眠过少的小学生更容易发胖。
