ds,whichsoundslikealotbutisspreadoutovertheentirebed—comesusuallyfromplasticorglassbeads(珠子)surroundedbyfilling.”（這種重量通常在5到30磅之間，聽起來很重，但卻鋪滿了整張床——這種重量通常是由塑料或玻璃珠包裹的填充物制成的）可知，選項承接上文說明沉重感的靈感來源。故F選項“這種沉重感模仿了一種叫做深壓刺激的觸摸療法?！鼻蓄}。故選F項。19．根據(jù)上文“A2020reviewlookedateightstudiesandconcludedthatweightedblanketshelpedreduceanxietybutnotnecessarilyinsomnia.”（2020年的一項綜述研究了8項研究，得出的結論是，加重的毯子有助于減輕焦慮，但不一定能減輕失眠。）根據(jù)下文“ArandomizedcontrolledstudyinSwedenin2020lookedat120peoplewithinsomniaandalsodepression,anxietyorothermetaldisorders.Thosewhousedaweightedblanketreportedthattheyhadbettersleepandwerelesstired,anxiousanddepressedduringtheday.”（2020年，瑞典的一項隨機對照研究對120名失眠、抑郁、焦慮或其他金屬疾病患者進行了研究。那些使用加重毛毯的人報告說，他們睡得更好，白天不那么累、焦慮和抑郁。）可知，研究結果有所不同。故B選項“其他研究則略有不同”切題。故選B項。20．根據(jù)下文“Ifyou’resomeonewithcirculatoryconditionssuchasdiabetesorbreathingissues,youshouldcheckwithyourdoctorbeforeusingaweightedblanket,”addsMcGinn.”（“如果你有循環(huán)系統(tǒng)疾病，如糖尿病或呼吸問題，你應該在使用加重毯子之前咨詢你的醫(yī)生?！保┛芍?，然而，加重毛毯可能不是對所有人都有效。故D選項“加重毛毯可能不是對所有人都有效”切題。故選D項。21．B22．D23．B24．A25．C26．A27．A28．C29．B30．D31．D32．C33．C34．A35．B【導語】本文是一篇記敘文。這篇文章講述了一個母親通過教育孩子學會自力更生的故事。文章的強調(diào)通過自己的努力獲得的東西更有價值，以及
