    WASHINGTON—There are more than 222million TVs in American homes. And it would make Frank Vespe very happy this week if every last one was turned off.

    Vespe is the head of the TV-Turnoff Network. the Washington organization behind TV Turnoff Week. For TV Turnoff week, American children are encouraged to go one week without watching TV. This year, it runs from April 23~29.“Our real message here is to see what life is like without TV and then make watching TV a conscious（自觉的) decision,”said Vespe.

    Vespe said that most of the children who go without television for a week go back to watching, but not so much.“They watch more selectively. They do more things as a family. It helps them put TV in its place.”One girl who is turning off her TV is Sarah Foote, 9.of Virginia. Sarah admits that it won’t be too hard to give up TV. She’s allowed to watch only educational television, and he favorite show from last year isn’t on any more.

    Of course, there are plenty of things about TV: programs can be entertaining, even educational.

    Even so, some experts aren’t sure TV Turnoff Week is the answer.

    Susan Neuman, a university educator who studies children and reading ,says the real problem is that parents do not keep track of what their children are watching. They don’t set limits on TV watching. Also, in some families, TV might be the only thing to do.

    What message does Sarah have for other children?

    “It’s a very good idea. I spent a whole week without TV. It also teaches you to enjoy time doing different things and not being sucked into something on TV, because you don’t want TV taking up all of your time.”Sarah said.

    B. parents should teach their children how to use TV

    Yacouba Sawadogo is an African farmer who has been travelling across the deserts for the last 30 years，using ancient farming techniques to fight the threatening deserts.

    His story dates back to the 1980s when Africa suffered one of the worst droughts in its history．During that period，rainfall reduced by as much as 80％，killing almost all the plants．Most local people moved away to different places，but Yacouba stayed back．Instead of giving in to the violence of nature，he decided to take control and change the face of the land completely．

    Unable to read and write，and with no access to modern techniques and tools，he started to employ an old African farming practice called “Zai”．The practice involves planting seeds in small holes filled with eco-friendly manure(肥料)．The holes fill up with and keep the water that falls during the rainy season．This provides moisture(水分) and nutrients for the growing plants during the dry periods．Also，the manure attracts ants，which help break up the soil further and increase its ability to take in water．

    Within two decades of starting his revolutionary work，a forested area of about fifty acres came up on the land of the African desert．Yacouba featured in a documentary titled “The Man Who Stopped the Desert” through which he became known to the rest of the world．To the great joy and relief of Yacouba，what the documentary focused on was put into the re-establishment of local forests and a training program for the farmers who wanted to 1earn Yacouba’s technique．Today，“Zai” is being widely practiced in the region．

    1.What does the text mainly talk about?

    A. A training program for African farmers．

    B. A documentary about an influential African farmer．

    C. The serious situation of environment destruction in Africa．

    D. An African farmer fighting deserts with old farming methods．

    2.What can we learn from the last paragraph?

    A. Yacouba advertised his farming practice through the media．

    B. Yacouba’s efforts have made a great difference．

    C. Rebuilding forests is no tough job at a11．

    D. Deserts no longer threaten Africa．

    3.Which word can best describe Yacouba?

    A. Determined． B. Knowledgeable． C. Curious． D. Creative．

    Most teens need 8 to 10 hours of sleep each night. But many teens have trouble sleeping. Lack of sleep can affect sports performance, increase our chances of getting sick, and may be linked to weight gain in some people. How can we get sleep we need? Here are some ideas:

    ●1. You’ve probably noticed how much running around kids do — and how soundly they sleep. Take a tip from a little child and get at least 60 minutes of exercise a day. Physical activity can decrease stress and help people feel more relaxed. Just don’t work out too close to bedtime because exercise can wake you up.

    ●Avoid alcohol and drugs. Lots of people think that alcohol or drugs will make them relaxed, but that’s not the case. Drugs and alcohol disturb sleep. 2.

    ●Say goodnight to electronics. 3. You’d better make your bedroom a tech-free zone, at least shut everything down an hour or more before lights out.

    ●Keep a sleep routine. Going to bed at the same time every night helps sleep. 4. So you can relax by reading, listening to music or spending time with a pet.

    ●Expect a good night’s sleep. 5. Say, “Tonight, I will sleep well” several times during the day. It can also help to practice breathing exercises or gentle yoga poses before bed.

    A. Be active during the day.

    B. Do some extreme sports.

    C. Either of them will make a person wake up at night.

    D. Expert recommend using the bedroom for sleep only.

    E. Creating a set bedtime procedure can improve this relaxation effect.

    F. Instead of worrying that you won’t sleep, remind yourself that you can.

    G. You can consult a doctor who will give you suggestions on how to sleep well.
