    　　Judging from recent surveys, most experts in sleep behavior agree that there is virtually an epidemic(流行病)of sleepiness in the nation．“I can’t think of a single study that hasn’t found Americans getting less sleep than they ought to,” says Dr David．Even people who think they are sleeping enough would probably be better off with more rest．

    　　The beginning of our sleep-deficit crisis can be traced back to the invention of the light bulb a century age．From diary entries and our personal accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries, sleep scientists have reached the conclusion that the average person used to sleep about 9．5 hours a night．“The best sleep habits once were forced on us, when we had nothing to do in the evening down on the farm, and it was dark．” By the 1950s and 1960s, the sleep schedule had been reduced dramatically, to between 7.5 and 8 hours, and most people had to wake to an alarm clock．“People cheat in their sleep, and they don’t even realize they’re doing it,” says Dr David．“They think they’re okay because they can get by on 6.5 hours, when they really need 7.5, 8 or even more to feel ideally energetic．”

    　　Perhaps the most merciless robber of sleep, researchers say, is the complexity of the day．Whenever pressures from work, family, friends and community increase, many people consider sleep the least expensive item on their programme．“In our society, you’re considered dynamic if you say you need only 5.5 hours’ sleep．If you’ve got to get 8.5 hours, people think you lack drive and ambition．”

    　　To determine the consequences of sleep-deficit, researchers have put subjects through a set of psychological and performance tests requiring them, for instance, to add columns of numbers or recall a passage read to them only minutes earlier．“We’ve found that if you’re in sleep-deficit, performance suffers,” says Dr David．“Short-term memory is weakened, as are abilities to make decisions and to concentrate．”

    (1)

    What is the main topic of the passage?

    [　　]

    A．

    Research on the causes and consequences of sleep-deficit．

    B．

    The epidemic of sleepiness in the modern times．

    C．

    The history of people’s sleeping patterns．

    D．

    The minimum of our sleeping hours．

    (2)

    Which of the following is Di David’s opinion?

    [　　]

    A．

    People who think they are sleeping enough are better off than those who don’t．

    B．

    Some people can remain energetic with only 6.5 hours’ sleep a night．

    C．

    If they get 8.5 hours’ sleep, people will be full of drive and ambition．

    D．

    People’s mental power suffers if they are lacking in sleep．

    (3)

    People in the 18th and 19th centuries slept about 9.5 hours a night because __________．

    [　　]

    A．

    they were forced by their parents to do so

    B．

    they knew what was best for their health

    C．

    they had no electricity

    D．

    they were not so dynamic and ambitious as modern people are

    [　　]

    A．

    the endless TV programmes in the evenings and the Internet

    C．

    the sufficient energy modern people usually have

    loud noises in modern cities

    D
    I grew up in a small town. I was only ten years old when my dad gave me the responsibility of feeding the chickens and cleaning up the stable (马厩). He believed it was important for me to have those jobs to learn responsibility. Then, when I was 22, I found a job in Natchbill at a country music club called the Natchbill Palace. I washed dishes and cooked from 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm and then went on stage and sang until 2:00 in the morning. It wasn’t long before I became known as a singing cook. I had been rejected so many times by record companies that it was hard not to be discouraged.
    One night, a woman executive (董事) from a company named Warner Brothers Records came to hear me sing. When the show was over, we sat down and talked and after she left, I said to myself it was one more rejection. A few weeks later, my manager received a phone call — Warner Brothers wanted to sign me to a record deal. Soon after, I had my first record in June 1986. It sold over 2 million copies. My best efforts had gone into every job I’ve ever held. It was the sense of responsibility that made me feel like a man.
    68. Why was the writer once known as a singing cook?
    A. He was a cook at a country music club.
    B. He sang for guests while he worked as a cook.
    C. He often sang while cooking.
    D. He liked singing better than cooking.
    69. Who first recognized the writer’s talents and helped make him successful?
    A. His brother.      B. His manager.    C. His father.           D. A businesswoman.

    D
    I read about it in the paper, in the subway, on my way to work. I read it, and I couldn't believe it, and I read it again. Then perhaps I just stared at it, at the newsprint spelling out his name, spelling out the story. I stared at it in the swinging lights of the subway car, and in the faces and bodies of the people, and in my own face, trapped in the darkness which roared(隆隆响) outside.
    It was not to be believed and I kept telling myself that, as I walked from the subway station to the high school. And at the same time I couldn't doubt it. I was scared, scared for Sonny. He became real to me again. A great block of ice got settled in my belly and kept melting there slowly all day long, while I taught my classes algebra. It was a special kind of ice. It kept melting, sending trickles(涓涓细流)of ice water all up and down my veins(血管), but it never got less. Sometimes it hardened and seemed to expand until I felt my heart was going to come spilling(溢出) out or that I was going to choke or scream. This would always be at a moment when I was remembering some specific thing Sonny had once said or done.
    When he was about as old as the boys in my classes his face had been bright and open; and he'd had wonderfully direct brown eyes, and great gentleness. I wondered what he looked like now. He had been picked up, the evening before, in a sudden search on an apartment down-town, for selling and using heroin.
    I couldn't believe it: but what I mean by that is that I couldn't find any room for it anywhere inside me. I had kept it outside me for a long time. I hadn't wanted to know. I had had suspicions(怀疑), but I didn't name them, I kept putting them away. I told myself that Sonny was wild, but he wasn't crazy. And he'd always been a good boy, he hadn't ever turned hard or evil or disrespectful, the way kids can, so quick, so quick, especially in Harlem. I didn't want to believe that I'd ever see my brother going down, coming to nothing, all that light in his face gone out, in the condition I'd already seen so many others.
    67. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refers to ____.
    A. the swinging light of the subway car    B. the news of Sonny’s being arrested
    C. everything trapped in the darkness       D. newspaper
    68. We can learn from the passage that ____.
    A. the news on the paper was unbelievable.
    B. I was too scared to believe the news
    C. I was ill because a great block of ice was in my belly
    D. Sonny and I hadn’t seen each other for a long time
    69. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
    A. Sonny and I were brothers.
    B. Sonny had always been a good boy before being arrested.
    C. I didn’t care about Sonny.
    D. Many young men turned bad in Harlem.
    70. Which of the following can best describe the author’s feelings towards Sonny?
       A. Concern, affection, expectation.            B. Concern, hatred, expectation.
    C. Affection, regret, sympathy.                  D. Regret, understanding, sympathy.
