"Can I take your order? " Night after night, I had to say this as I worked in my family’s restaurant. My father was a fantastic cook. He wanted me, his only son, to cook with him, but I didn’t like cooking. Because of the restaurant, my father was always busy. He never had time to play football with me.

During my high school and college years, I worked with my family at night. But I always avoided the kitchen. I couldn’t wait to graduate (畢業(yè))so that I could move away from the family business. Several days before my graduation day, my father and I started looking at new cars. Finally, we found the right car. I was sure that my father would give it to me as my graduation gift.

On my graduation day, my father gave me a book as a gift. It was his old cookbook. I was so angry that I gave it back to him and ran out of the house. Several days later I moved away and started my business. Although I often saw my father during holidays, we never talked about the graduation gift. Then one day, I got a call that my father was ill. I went to see him because I was very worried.

That night, I looked through my father’s books and saw the cookbook that he had given me year before. I carefully opened the cookbook and went through it. Then I found something that made me cry. It was a check(支票)for$30,000 dated(注有日期) the day of my graduation. And the price of the car my father and I chose all those years ago was $30,000.

World Sleep Day is on March 21st. Last year’s theme was “Healthy sleep, away from the slow disease”. Its aim is to celebrate the benefits (好處) of good and healthy sleep.

Sleep is like food for the brain. Enough sleep helps the body and brain grow and develop. According to the National Sleep Foundation in the US, adults need seven to nine hours of sleep every night. For students aged 10 to 17, a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours per night.

But many students don’t get enough sleep because of early school start times and heavy homework. About 80 percent of middle school students don’t get enough sleep, the China Youth and Children Research Center reported. For some students, they want to sleep early, but they keep worrying about their schoolwork and can’t fall asleep quickly. For others, they may even have insomnia which might keep them awake all night.

These sleeping problems greatly affect people’s lives. Experts have shown that lack of sleep for teenagers leads to poor grades. Students without enough sleep cannot pay attention in class or do well in sports. Also, lack of sleep may make them depressed.

Luckily, with good sleep habits, it is easier to fall asleep. Some of these good habits include avoiding drinks that make people excited late in the day, going to sleep at the same time each night, and sleeping in a comfortable place that is dark, quiet, and neither too warm nor too cold.

1.If Li Hong is 15 years old, how much sleep does she need every night?

A. 10-12 hours. B. 8-9 hours

C. 7 hours. D. Less than 7 hours.

2.What might happen if teens don’t get enough sleep?

A. They might do well in sports.

B. Their bodies and brains might grow better.

C. They might feel depressed.

D. They might not be able to finish their schoolwork.

3.Which is NOT a reason why so many students don’t get enough sleep?

A. They cannot pay attention in class.

B. They have too much homework to do.

C. They have sleeping problems.

D. They have to get up very early to go to school.

4.Which of the following are good sleeping habits?

a. Sleeping in a bright place.

b. Going to bed at the same time.

c. Sleeping in a dark and quiet place.

d. Drinking something that makes you excited.

A. a-b B. a-c C. b-c D. b-d

5.The underlined word “insomnia” means “_______” in Chinese.

A. 健忘癥 B. 肥胖癥 C. 多動(dòng)癥 D. 失眠癥

1.B 2.C 3.A 4.C 5.D 【解析】文章大意:三月二十一日是世界睡眠日。去年的主題是“健康睡眠,遠(yuǎn)離慢性疾病”。睡眠就像大腦的食物,充足的睡眠有助于身體和大腦的生長(zhǎng)發(fā)育。根據(jù)調(diào)查成年人每晚需要7到9個(gè)小時(shí)的睡眠時(shí)間。對(duì)于10到17歲的學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō),健康的睡眠時(shí)間是每晚8到9個(gè)小時(shí)。 但許多學(xué)生因?yàn)樯蠈W(xué)時(shí)間早和作業(yè)繁重而睡眠不足。這些睡眠問(wèn)題極大地影響著人...
