I had telegrammed London from Amsterdam, and there was a hired car to meet, but there was one more unfortunate happening before I reached my flat. In all my travels I have never, but for that once, been required by the British customs to open a single bag or to do more than state that I carried no goods liable to duty. It was, of course, my fault; the extreme tiredness and nervous tension of the journey had destroyed my diplomacy (处世之道). I was, for whichever reason, so tired that I could hardly stand, and to the question, “Have you read this?” I replied with extreme foolishness, “Yes, hundreds of times.” “And you have nothing to declare?” “Nothing.” “How long have you been out of this country?” “About three months.” “And during that time you have acquired nothing?” “Nothing but what is on the list I have given you.” He seemed immediately at a loss, but then he attacked. The attack, when it came, was completely unexpected. "Where did you get that watch?" I could have kicked myself. Two days before, when playing water games with a friend in the bath, I had forgotten to take off my ROLEX OYSTER, and it had, not unnaturally, stopped. I had gone into the market and bought, for twelve shillings and six pence, an ugly time piece that made a strange noise. It had stopped twice, without any reason, during the journey. I explained, but I had already lost face. I brought out my old watch from a pocket, and added that I should be grateful if he would confiscate (没收) the replacement. “It is not a question of confiscation,” he said, “ there is a fine for failing to declare dutiable goods. And now may I please examine that Rolex?” It took another quarter of an hour to persuade him that the Rolex was not contraband (走私货). Just when I let out a sigh of relief, he began to search my luggage! 21．What can we conclude from the questions asked by the customs officer? A.He was just doing his duty by asking the passenger some usual questions. B.He must have noticed the writer’s ugly watch. C.He wanted to embarrass the writer. D.He must have noticed the writer’s tiredness. 22．What did the writer think of the watch he bought abroad? A.He was fond of the watch because it was a Rolex. B.He found the watch useful though it was very cheap. C.He didn’t like the watch at all. D.He was interested in the watch. 23．After reading the story we can infer that the writer _______. A.knew little about the customs regulations B.must have spent a long time at the customs and have been let go without any punishment C.must have been fined because of carrying many contraband goods D.might have failed in catching the hired car B Poor sleep can have a great effect on the functions inside the human body, say UK researchers. The activity of hundreds of genes was changed when people's sleep was cut to less than six hours a day for a week. The researchers said the results of the recent research helped explain how poor sleep damaged health. Heart disease, diabetes, obesity and poor brain function have all been linked to poor sleep. What poor sleep actually does to affect health, however ，is unknown. So researchers at the University of Surrey analyzed the blood of 26 people after they had had plenty of sleep, up to 10 hours each night for a week, and compared the results with those after a week of fewer than six hours a night. More than 700 genes were changed due to poor sleep. Each contains the instructions for building a protein (蛋白质)，so those that became more active produced more proteins―changing the chemistry of the body. Meanwhile the natural body clock was disturbed―some genes naturally get weak in activity through the day，but this effect was eased (缓解)due to poor sleep. Prof Colin Smith，from the University of Surrey, told the BBC, "There was quite a sharp change in activity in many different kinds of genes.” Areas such as the immune system and how the body responds to damage and stress were affected. " Prof Smith added,"Clearly sleep is of extreme importance to rebuilding the body and maintaining (维持)a functional state". Dr Akhilesh Reddy ，a specialist in the body clock at the University of Cambridge, said the key findings were the effects on inflammation (炎症)and the immune system as it was possible to see a link between those effects and health problems such as diabetes. The findings also tie into research attempting to do away with sleep,such as by finding a drug that could get rid of the effects of poor sleep. Dr Reddy said, “ My feeling is that sleep is particularly important to make all cells to grow again?" 24．The passage is mainly about____________. A.why body clock was affected by poor sleep B.how researchers found the results of poor sleep C.how poor sleep could affect the human body D.why proteins changed the chemistry of the body 25．What could poor sleep result in? A.The change in genes. B.Weaker body reactions. C.Less active genes. D.The decrease in proteins. 26．It can be inferred from the passage that____________. A.researchers know little about the effect of poor sleep B.people with poor sleep are expected to live a short life C.a new drug to cure poor sleep will soon come into bei
