25、   At night,you are just lying there, but the body is busy.

9:00 pm Get Comfortable

It usually takes about 15 or 20 minutes to fall asleep, with the most comfortable position. Some people sleep on their backs and some on their stomachs. Most people curl up in a "fetal position" like a baby in the womb(子宫). Other people like strange positions like sleeping on elbows(肘部) and knees.

9:20 pm  I am Falling Asleep

You're about to sleep when suddenly you feel like falling. You even dream you are falling off a cliff. Your body jerks(抽搐). What's happening? Well, you are falling-asleep. Your body relaxes, but your brain is still active and when your muscles become less tense, your brain senses that you are in danger of falling. To save you, your brain sends a signal.

10:00 pm  Did You Hear That?

Soon a loud sound breaks the peace. What? You are snoring. When this happens, you breathe through your mouth, and as you take in air, it makes the soft tissue(组织) at the back of your throat vibrate(振动). The bad news is that you may snore more as you get older, especially if you are a boy. The good news is that snoring is not usually a serious problem, unless of course, you wake up your little brother or sister.

11:00 pm  Better Lock the Doors

Some sleepers get really busy during the first few hours of the night. Sleep walking, sleep talking and even bed wetting can be caused by the disagreement between your brain and your body. Sleepwalkers keep their eyes open and seems to see where they are going, but they are sound asleep. This behavior is a common among children, whose brains and bodies are still learning to work together.

4:00 am Dare to Dream

Nightmares(噩梦) or sweet dreams usually occur in the last hours of sleep. If you awaken in the middle of a dream, you might find it difficult to move for a moment or two. Certain parts of your brain have shut down, preventing messages from going to the muscles, temporarily(暂时地) disabling the body.

7:00 am But My Arm Is Still Asleep

Time to wake up, as you begin to move, a strange feeling floods down from your shoulder. Oh no, pins and needles! When pressure on your arm keeps the nerves（神经）from sending any messages to the brain, your arm loses all feelings. Don't worry if you wake up and your arm is still asleep. It'll be wide awake soon.

【1】Which picture best describe the underlined words “fetal position”?

A. B.

C. D.

【2】When do you have a feeling of falling?

A.When you are sound asleep. B.When you are having a dream.

C.When you are moving at night. D.When you are about to falling asleep.

【3】What is TRUE about snoring?

A.Luckily, girls will snore less as they get older.

B.Snoring is a serious problem so we should avoid it.

C.When you snore, you won’t use your nose to take in air.

D.It is because the soft tissue of the throat vibrates itself.

【4】According to this passage, it’s common that .

A.children sometimes are sleepwalkers B.dreams happen in the first hours of sleep

C.it often takes about an hour to fall asleep D.your arm wakes up together with your body

【5】What’s the best title of this passage?

A.Nightmares in Our Sleep B.Nighttime Busy Bodies

26、

“Who are you?” asked the little prince (王子).

“I am a fox (狐狸),” said the fox.

“Come and play with me,” said the little prince. “I am so unhappy.”

“I cannot play with you,” the fox said. “I am not tamed.”

“I am looking for men,” said the little prince. “What does that mean—‘tame’?”

“To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique (独一无二的) in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world...” said the fox.

“I am beginning to understand,” said the little prince. “There is a flower... I think that she has tamed me...”

“My life is very monotonous (单调的),” the fox said. “I hunt chickens; men hunt me. All the chickens are just alike, and all the men are just alike. And, in consequence, I am a little bored. But if you tame me, it will be as if the sun came to shine on my life. I shall know the sound of a step that will be different from all the others. Other steps send me hurrying back underneath the ground. Yours will call me, like music, out of my burrow (洞穴). And then look: you see the grain (谷物)-fields down there? I do not eat bread. Wheat is of no use to me. The wheat fields have nothing to say to me. And that is sad. But you have hair that is the colour of gold. Think it will be so wonderful when you have tamed me! The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat...”

The fox gazed at the little prince, for a long time.

“Please—tame me!” he said.

“One only understands the things that one tames,” said the fox. “Men have no more time to understand anything. They buy things all ready made at the shops. But there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship, and so men have no friends any more. If you want a friend, tame me...”

“What must I do, to tame you?” asked the little prince.

“You must be very patient,” replied the fox. “First you will sit down at a little distance from me—like that—in the grass. I shall look at you out of the corner of my eye, and you will say nothing. Words are the source of misunderstandings. But you will sit a little closer to me, every day...”

The next day the little prince came back.

“It would have been better to come back at the same hour,” said the fox. “If, for example, you come at four o’clock in the afternoon, then at three o’clock I shall begin to be happy. I shall feel happier and happier as the hour advances. At four o’clock, I shall already be worrying and jumping about. I shall show you how happy I am! But if you come at just any time, I shall never know at what hour my heart is to be ready to greet you...”

【1】At the moment he first saw the fox, the little prince was.

A. bored   B. Afraid C. worried D. unhappy

【2】According to the passage, the underlined word “tame” probably means.

A. to train somebody to obey you

B. to ask somebody to attack you 

C. to keep somebody waiting for you

D. to prevent somebody needing you

【3】What will probably bring the fox back the thought of the little prince?

A. Bread.   B. Chickens. C. Grain. D. Wind.

【4】The last four paragraphs are mainly about.

A. the ways the little prince tames the fox

B. the causes the little prince tames the fox

C. the purposes the little prince tames the fox

D. the best time the little prince tames the fox

【5】What can we infer (推测) from the passage?

A. The fox wanted a friend.

B. The little prince was looking for the fox.

C. Men can buy friendship in the wheat fields. 

D. It is good to meet the fox at different times of a day.
