参考解析
解析：
最后一段作者描述到一些人认为更多的人睡得太多，作者指出“One can see the point of this also”，接着下文提到有些人在睡眠量低于平均水平的情况下也能把做好工作并玩得愉快，如果这样不会对他们身体造成伤害，那么“retard our development by holding back those people”将是遗憾的事情，可见作者认为那些人应该得到支持，因此D项符合文意。

问答题Practice 4 母亲从乡下来，住了十天。临走时，她老人家想为我们添置一件东西，留个纪念。 母亲说：“你们什么都有，又好像什么都没有。电视机是你们的，里面走来走去都是些陌生的人，有时候，杀人犯、贼、贪官、小偷也在里面出出进进；收录机是你们的，可尽是人家在唱歌；书架上的书是你们的，可那都是别人写的字；电冰箱是你们的，一年四季都装一箱不知从哪里落下的霜。方便是方便，可就是没有一样是你们自己的。”（《泡菜坛子》——李汉荣）
问答题Practice 11 If you ask an Englishman about the Press in his country, he will almost certainly begin talking about the morning daily and Sunday “national newspapers”, all of which now have their head offices in London. Later, almost as an afterthought, he may go to talk about the provincial morning dailies, the London and provincial evening papers, and finally the weekly local papers. The dominating position of the national daily morning papers is due to the smallness of the country, with every large town in England and Wales able to be reached by train in less than five hours from London. A paper printed in London around midnight can be at any breakfast table in England the next morning, except in remote country districts. All over the country, most people read the same newspapers and the dominant position of the London papers may reflect a lack of regional identity. The national dailies are generally classed as either “quality” (The Times, the Guardian and the Daily Telegraph) or “popular”.

问答题Practice 7 卢沟桥始建于金大定29年(公元1189年)，于金明昌三年(公元1192年)建成。桥全长266.5米，宽7.5米，桥身共11孔，是一座连拱大石桥。大桥扶栏上雕刻的狮子大小不一，形态各异，北京民间就有“卢沟桥的狮子——数不清”的说法。1962年曾为此进行了清点，共有485只。1979年在河中又挖出了一只。这些石狮艺术价值极高，特别是桥东的南边栏杆上有一只石狮子，高竖起一只耳朵，好像在倾听桥下的流水声和过往行人的谈话。
