Superhero movies and TV shows are very popular today. A new study shows something is missing from superhero stories, though. Most popular superheroes are men. The new study says kids want to see more superheroes who are women.

The study was done by two groups. One is the Women's Media Center. The other is BBC America. The Women's Media Center is a charity(慈善)group. It fights for fair treatment(待遇)of women in things like TV and movies. BBC America is a TV channel.

More than 2,000 people took part in the study. Some were kids aged from 10 to 19. Others were the parents of younger children.

Not Enough Strong Woman Characters

The study shows that most girls feel there are not enough female role models in entertainment(娱乐). They think there should be more strong female characters. They want to see superheroes that look like them. Boys answered questions in the study, too. Most agreed with the girls. They want to see more female superheroes, like Wonder Woman.

Julie Burton runs the Women's Media Center. She said TV and movies had to make changes. They must provide more role models for girls. Female characters should reflect(反映)girls of all different backgrounds, she said. It is important for all to see people who look like them in entertainment.

Helping Girls Feel More Brave and Confident

Burton said seeing strong female characters is important for girls. It helps them build confidence. These characters give girls someone to look up to, she explained. This can inspire girls. It can also help them to feel brave.

Sarah Barnett agrees. She runs BBC America. "If you can't see her, you can't be her," Barnett said.

The study asked girls how they feel when they see powerful female characters on screen. The results were interesting. They showed that seeing female characters has a big effect on girls. Boys like seeing male superheroes on screen. But the study showed the effect on boys was smaller. Maybe that is because seeing male superheroes is pretty common. Female superheroes are rarer. Seeing them is more exciting.

More Women in Entertainment

The report is a part of a new plan at BBC America. It is called #Galaxy Of Women. The goal is to improve how women are shown in entertainment.

The study came out the day after BBC America started a new season of "Doctor Who". It is a popular science fiction show. The Doctor is an alien(外星人)who can travel through time and change bodies. Twelve different actors have played the Doctor since the show started in 1963. This season, the Doctor is a woman, played by Jodie Whittaker. This is the first time the Doctor has been played by a woman.

A.The study was done by Men's Media Center and BBC.

B.There are enough women superheroes in entertainment.

C.Julie Burton believes TV and movies need to make changes.

D.More than 2,000 kids aged from 10 to 19 took part in the study.

B.there are more chances to see male superheroes compared to female ones.

C.seeing male superheroes is more exciting than seeing female superheroes.

3.Why did BBC America start the #Galaxy Of Women?

A.To make sure there was a woman Doctor on screen.

B.To better the way women appeared on TV and films.

C.Because BBC America had a new plan and it was a part of it.

D.Because the new season of science fiction "Doctor Who" was popular.

4.What's the best title for the passage?

According to a research by Chinese Sleep Research Society, 38.2% of Chinese adults suffered from insomnia(失眠) and over 300 million Chinese suffer from a sleep disorder.

However, the age of those suffering from sleep disorders is getting younger. Nowadays, over 60 percent of post-90s don’t have enough sleep.

Getting older is the main reason that the middle-aged and elderly cannot sleep well, while for young people, the reasons include not going to sleep at the same time each night, sleeping late, and not having good sleep habits.

How to decide sleep quality

Sleep quality is divided into two types: with dreams and without dreams. Moreover, if a person sleeps without dreams, there are deep and light sleep stages of sleep.

There are two standards of sleep quality. First, whether there is enough time for deep sleep. Second, whether the time of dreaming during sleep is proper, not too much or too little.

There are three simple methods to decide sleep quality. First, people should go to bed at about 10 pm. Second, sleep time should last 7 to 8 hours for an adult. Third, a person should have more energy after waking up.

How to improve sleep quality

★Taking some medicine is one of the main way to treat sleep disorders.

★Sleep disorders usually have something to do with mental health problems, such as feeling much too stressed or nervous. To have a good sleep, people should relax, be in good moods and work and rest regularly.

★As for eating habits, patients need to drink less tea or coffee, eat less oily food at supper and do not eat too much at supper. It is also helpful to sleep if people exercise more.

★It is also suggested that people had better listen to music and read books instead of using cellphones.
