答案及解析
26.C【解析】此题考查对这篇文章的主要内容的宏观掌握。本篇是关于研究人员在实验室里研究人做梦的类型。at night符合题意。
27.B 【解析】联系上一句“在芝加哥大学的一个特殊实验室里”。只有B符合题意。
28.A【解析】“studying”在文中作伴随状语，B、C、D项则不合适。
29.A【解析】实验证明每人每夜都会做3—7个梦。其他选项与题意不合。
30.D【解析】从上下文可以得出此处应填表转折关系的词。therefore因此;if如果;despi不管，均不合题意。
31.B【解析】本句意为“但在日常生活中，一个人可能记不住或只记住一个梦。”miss错过;remember记住;realize意识到，实现;notice注意到。
32.D【解析】此题考查对上下文的理解，subject实验对象，只有表对象客体时才会用“object of sth.”的句型。
33.D【解析】此题考查对词义的辨析。manufacture制造;initiate着手于;prepare准备;record记录。
34.B【解析】sign意为“标志”，这里是当动词使用。
35.C【解析】此题考查词语搭配，soundly意为“安稳的”，可以与sleep搭配，其他项均不符合。
36.D【解析】subjects实验对象;examiners检查者;只有observers观察者符合题意。
37.A【解析】once -旦。hardly用于“hardly.when.…”结构。
38.C【解析】become作系动词时意为“变得”，后接形容词。
39.B【解析】此题考查的是时态，通篇用的都是现在时。这里是指“帷幕已经拉开，演出即将开始”，故用现在完成时。
40.D【解析】本句意为“当机器表明梦做完了，蜂鸣器会唤醒睡觉的人”。indicate意为“表明”，符合文意。
41.C【解析】此题考查对上下文的理解，意思是“蜂鸣器会唤醒睡觉的人”。
42.D【解析】实验对象继续睡觉，因为睡觉过程中会出现很多梦，根据40题的分析可知D。
43.B【解析】做梦者应是被叫醒，使用被动语态结构，“be+过去分词“表被动。
44.D【解析】此题考查语法结构，再多睡5分钟，表达应为“数字+more+名词复数形式”。
45.C【解析】由31题中的remember可推出此处是指对梦的记忆逐渐消失。
