    A study finds that not enough morning light causes teenagers not to get enough sleep at night. “As teenagers spend more time indoors, they miss necessary morning light. Day light is needed to keep the balance of the body’s 24-hour biological system (生物系统), which regulates (调节) body temperature and sleep styles,” reports Dr. Mariana Figueiro. “These teenagers who receive little morning light are going to bed later, getting less sleep and doing badly in tests. They are more likely to fail in their exams.”
    In the study, Dr. Figueiro asked 11 students in Grade 8 to wear special glasses to prevent blue morning light from reaching their eyes. At the end of the 5-day study she found that they fell asleep 30 minutes later than usual.
    Throughout her research, Dr. Figueiro has been very worried about teenagers going to bed too late. The problem is that today’s schools require teenagers to be in school very early in the morning. These students are likely to miss the morning light because they often go to school before the sun is up or as it’s just rising.
    Furthermore (此外), the schools are not likely to provide enough electric light to keep the balance of this biological system. Our biological system is much more sensitive (敏感的) to blue light. Therefore, having lots of light in the classroom does not make sure that there is enough light to keep our biological system balanced.

      Which of the following is the result of the study?

      1. A.
        Blue light in the morning harms the biological system.
      2. B.
        Not enough morning light keeps teenagers sleep less.
      3. C.
        Not getting more light in the morning make teenagers happy.
      4. D.
        Not enough sleep makes teenagers fail in tests.

        has the same effects as afternoon light
      2. B.
        may change studying habits of teenagers
      3. C.
        is important to children’s biological system
      4. D.
        has no effect on students’ tests

      What’s the problem of the students according to the study?

    A week ago, Columbus Middle School asked the parents of their school to choose a sport for their child to play. Here’s some information about the sports.
    Sports 1: Basketball
    We expect that this will be the most popular of the four sports. So students should sign up (报名) as soon as possible. Students will take a private bus to and from Kwun Tong Sports Park. Each student will have to pay $ 10 each time for the cost of the bus. There will be four basketball courts available for our use with one teacher watching over each game.
    Sports 2: Gym
    We will use St. Peter’s Park. There are two reasons for choosing this park. First, it is not very busy and crowded before 6:00 p.m. Second, it has lots of trees with plenty of shade. Students must bring along two bottles of water to prevent from being thirsty. All the activities here are free. And there will be a teacher on duty for each activity.
    Sports 3: Hiking
    Hiking (远足)will be at Kowloon Peak. The activity will start at 2:30 p.m. and finish 90 minutes later. There will be 15 students in each group. And three teachers will be with the students. This sport will cost $ 75 per hour. Students should take plenty of water and sunglasses.
    Sports 4: Swimming
    The Kowloon City Swimming Centre is a 10-minute walk from our school. Four teachers will go to the pool and watch the students from the poolside. We will only be able to use the pool for one hour (2: 45 p.m. to 3:45 p.m.). Only students skillful at swimming can take up this activity. The pool will have two lifeguards on watch. Girls must wear swimming suits. The cost is $ 15 per visit.

    Have you ever heard of the group Westlife? Maybe you have, but I’m sure many of you don’t know very much about it.
    Westlife is an Irish boy band group, which was made up of 6 boys in the beginning and called IOU. The group quickly became popular with young people thanks to their song Swear It Again, which was at the top of the UK charts (排行榜) in April 1999.

The album’s most popular song You Raise Me Up mixes traditional Irish music with pop music.

    A student newspaper reports that most students go to sleep at 1:30 am. Even if that’s an overstatement (夸张), it’s close to the truth. Scientists say teens should sleep nine hours each night. But that’s hard. Some are even “pulling all-nighters” (开夜车). These students must hand in their homework the next day but they haven’t done it. In the morning they don’t look healthy and you can tell who’s been doing it. One of my classmates did a survey on the topic. She found that most kids pull all-nighters to finish homework, but some do it for other reasons, such as playing computer games!
    Maybe our lack(缺乏) of sleep is because of laziness — I think I’m a rather lazy student — or maybe it’s because we have too much to do in American high schools. I usually go to bed around midnight. If I stayed up past 1:30 am, I wouldn’t get any work done. I’d be falling asleep at my computer. My classes begin at 7:30 am. I’m partly awake in my first class. By the second, I’m a little sleepy. By my third class, I’m sleepy. By midday I’m finally fully awake. But by 3:00 pm, I’m slowing down again. Yet I get more sleep than usual students.
    Most American high schools seem to have a similar(相似的) problem with sleepy students. High school classes start at 7:30 am, so students have to get up one and a half hours before that to get ready and catch the bus. It’s believed that lack of sleep can be bad for both grades and health. Some schools are paying attention. Classes in those schools start at 8:30 am.
    【小题1】What does the underlined sentence “it’s close to the truth” mean?
    A．It doesn’t tell the truth. B．It is quite true.
    C．It is impossible.D．I don’t think it’s right.
    【小题2】Why do most of the teens have to stay up late?
    A．They play computer games.B．They watch videos late.
    C．They have to do a lot of housework.D．They have to do a lot of homework.
    【小题3】When do students in most American high schools have to get up?
    A．At 7:30 am.B．At 6:00 am.C．At 9:00 am.D．At about 7:00 am.
    【小题4】Which of the following is TRUE according to the reading?
    A．The writer usually stays up past 1:30 am.
    B．The writer usually goes to bed around midnight.
    C．The writer usually does a survey.
    D．Many American students don’t get enough sleep, so they can have high grades.
    【小题5】What’s the main idea of the passage?
    A．Something has to be done to solve the problem of students’ lack of sleep.
    B．Many American high school students are sleepy in class.
    C．Many kids have too much homework to do.
    D．Students can’t play computer games.
