VI. 阅读理解
A
When US student Olivia Priedeman, 17, woke up one morning, she thought she had had a dream about making plans with a friend.
But it wasn’t a dream. Her phone showed that during the night, Priedeman had read a text message from her friend. She did it while she was fast asleep.
Reading and sending text messages while asleep called ─＂sleep texting＂─is an unusual sleep behaviour, similar to sleep walking. It’s also a growing problem among doctors: young people can’ t live without their cell phones.
One in three teenagers sends more than 100 text messages a day, according to the Pew Internet & American Life Project. And at least four out of five teenagers said they sleep with their phone on or near their bed.
Elizabeth Dowdell, a professor at Villanova University in Pennsylvania, has studied sleep texting. She said that having a phone nearby all night is a big part of the problem.
Andrew Stiehm, a sleep medicine researcher with Allina Health in Minnesota, agrees. It’s possible for the part of the brain that controls skills to wake up, while the part of the brain that controls memory and judgment(判断) may be still asleep. That’s why some people can perform basic movements — such as walking, talking, texting or even driving while they’re sleeping. Some of Dowdell’s students said that they’re disturbed by their nighttime texting behaviour. But because sleep texting is unconscious, it’s a difficult habit to break. Dowdell said she knows of some students who wear socks on their hands to keep themselves from texting.
Marjorie Hogan, a doctor at Hennepin County Medical Centre in Minneapolis, Minnesota, suggests keeping all electronic products outside the bedroom.
1. What happened to Olivia Priedeman?
A. She sleepwalked to a friend’s house.
B. She dreamed of making plans with a friend.
C. She phoned one of her friends during the night.
D. She read a text message from her friend while asleep.
2. What does the underlined word ＂unconscious＂mean?
A. 无意义的
B. 无意识的
C. 无反应的
D. 无规律的
3. What can we learn from the passage?
A. It’s easy to give up a sleep texting habit.
B. One in three teenagers has a sleep texting habit.
C. Sleep texting can reduce the quality of one’s sleep.
D. Sleep texting does more harm to one’s health than sleep walking.
B
Are you feeling tired in class every day? Are you feeling that you lose attention in class? Are you feeling ＂brain (大脑)-dead＂sometimes?
Well, if you answer ＂yes＂to these questions, you are not sleeping enough. But you are not alone. Many people thought the world haven’t got enough sleep, especially students. Getting enough sleep is good for your health, so try the following ways.
Use your time wisely(明智地)
You should make plans of things you want to get done. Never wait till the last moment to study for an exam or finish a task because you are only hurting your body in the long run.
Sleep like a baby
Remember when you were a child and your parents asked you to take naps(小睡)? Taking naps is important to you if you lose sleep during the night.
Sleep more, suffer(遭受) less
You shouldn’t make yourself suffer any longer. So tonight, clear your mind and try to get a few more hours of sleep than you did the nights before! So how much sleep do you need? Researchers have done an experiment. They put people in an environment without clocks or windows and ask them to sleep any time they feel. 95 percent sleep between seven and eight hours out of every 24.

VII. 书面表达
One day, Xiaoming saw a little girl fall down. He wanted to help the girl, but his mother stopped him and said, ＂
Don’t do that, or there will be some trouble.＂A few days later, the mother saw Xiaoming just let the fallen oil bottle be. And Xiaoming said to his mother, ＂If I had done something, you would think that it was I who knocked it over.＂
I disagree with the mother in the story. I think parents should set a good example to their children. They should not only care for their children’s health, but the ir minds. They should let their children know it is a pleasure to help others who are in trouble.
Everyone should do something good to make our society better, right?。
