    　　Hundreds of years ago, life was harder than it is today．People didn't have modern machines．There was no medicine, either．

    　　Life today brings new problems．One of the biggest is pollution．Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty．It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water．Noise pollution makes us talk louder and we become angry more easily．Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution to all living things in the world．

    　　Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day．Sometimes the polluted air is very thick．People cannot see the sky clearly．

    　　Many countries are making rules to fight against pollution．Factories now must clean their water before they throw it away．And they mustn't let dirty smoke go into the air．

    　　There are many things we can do to fight against pollution．We should put waste things in dustbins and do not throw them on the ground．We should go to work by bike or on foot instead of taking a car or a bus．If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution．

    　　Rules are not enough．We should do our best to fight against pollution．

    　　Every morning, the newspaper chief editor(主编)holds a meeting with the reporters．They discuss the main events(事件)of the day．Reporters are then sent to cover the events．

    　　As soon as the reporters know what to write about, they get down to work．They telephone people and fix a time for a face-to-face interview with them．Sometimes they do telephone interviews．Checking information is very important．They go to the newspaper’s own library to look up any information that they need．This is called “doing one’s homework”．

    　　At the same time, the picture editor decides which photographs will be used for the next day’s paper．All the people who work on a newspaper must be able to work fast．Reporters have to stop working on one story and start working at once on the important new one．They must find out the new information as quickly as possible．Later in the day, everything is put together at the news desk．Reporters return, type(打字)their stories into the computer and hand them to the editor．

    　　Do you know why you sleep? You may think it’s because you’re tired．Or perhaps you’ve been told sleep is good for you．Yet no one knows exactly why or how people sleep．

    　　Until the early 1950s, most scientists thought the body and brain rested during sleep．Then a scientist watched people sleep．He noticed that during periods of between 5 and 30 minutes each, sleepers’ eyes made rapid movements, as if they were watching something．He called these periods REM sleep, for Rapid Eye Movement．Periods when sleepers’ eyes did not move he called non-REM sleep．

    　　Whenever the scientist woke people during REM sleep, they were having vivid dreams．Measurements showed that sleepers’ pulses(脉搏)went up quickly during REM sleep．Their breathing, heartbeat, and the blood going to the brain also increased．Far from being a time of rest, REM sleep is a time when the body is hard at work．Scientists still don’t know the reason for this．Some believe REM sleep makes learning easier．Babies spend a lot of time in REM sleep．Because of this, some scientists believe that REM sleep helps the brain grow．Others think REM sleep is a time for the brain to empty the day’s garbage．

    　　One thing all the scientists agree on is that sleep is necessary．Without enough sleep, people make mistakes．Most major car accidents happen during the early morning hours, when people are sleepiest．

    (1)

    [　　]

    A．

    stop

    B．

    2

    C．

    3

    D．

    4

    (4)

    [　　]

    A．

    REM sleep helps the brain grow．

    B．

    REM sleep has been watched and recorded by scientists．

    is something that all people experience
