21、   There are many ways to help improve your health like eating healthy food, taking exercise and getting medical help. But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night. The general sleeping rule is that the younger you are, the longer sleep you need. But regardless of(不管) age, some people need to sleep more while for some a few hours is enough.

The problem with sleep is that more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health Organization, over half the people in the world may be sleep­deprived. Having less sleep not only makes people feel tired but also causes accidents. In the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100，000 traffic accidents a year. Also sleep problems can cause medical problems such as high blood pressure(血压).

Why are so many people sleep­deprived? Part of the reasons may be cultural. In the American culture, people put a higher value on work than on sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are usually seen as “lazy”. Also, you can sometimes hear some people say proudly that they don't have much time to sleep, they only sleep four or five hours a night. It seems that the less you sleep, the more work you'll do.

How do we teach these people to learn the value of sleep? Perhaps they may listen to the advice of Dr.James Maas, an expert(专家) in sleep. He says, “Sleep is like a credit(信用) card. When you sleep less, you are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back. The more hours you don't sleep, the more hours you should sleep to ‘pay back’ the hours on your ‘sleep credit card’.”

For those who value work more than sleep, they should listen to what a famous person once said, “Don't think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night. That is a foolish(愚蠢的) idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more.”

【1】According to the writer, the easiest and cheapest way to improve health is to ________.

A.eat healthy food every day B.take exercise as much as possible

C.get medical help whenever necessary D.sleep eight hours or more every night

【2】According to Dr.James Maas, sleep is like ________.

A.an hour B.a report C.a credit card D.a piece of paper

【3】The underlined word “sleep­deprived” in the passage means “________”.

A.having a good sleep B.excited about sleep

C.having less sleep D.interested in sleeping

【4】What do the words of the famous person mean in Paragraph 5?

A.Sleeping during the night is foolish. B.Sleeping during the night is helpful.

C.People have no courage. D.People always do less work.

【5】What is the best title for the passage?

A.The Value of Sleep B.The Value of Study

C.The Ways of Eating Less D.The Ways of Making Money

22、Dear Mum and Dad，

I promised to write，so...

We're staying with Lingling's uncle in Hunan Province, and I'm having a wonderful time here in Zhangjiajie. It's a magic land of mountains, forests and rivers. It's very large, about 480 square kilometres. It's famous for the strange shape of its tall rocks. Some of them look like humans while others look like wild animals.

Last night we camped by a small lake. During the night, we heard a noise! It woke everybody up. We thought somebody was moving about. Lingling's uncle said it was an animal. We came out without making any noise, and found it was just a hungry monkey looking for food.

This morning, we climbed Mount Tianzi! From the top we hoped to see the lakes and forests. But it was a pity that it was cloudy. We could only see the mountain tops above the clouds. Then we walked down the path along a river, past trees and other plants and back to the camp. I pulled a leaf off a plant, but Lingling's uncle said that it was wrong to pull leaves off plants and that we should protect everything here. I was very sorry.

Tomorrow we're going to Dongting Lake, the second-largest lake in China.

We'll be back home next week! Wish you were here!

Love，

Betty

23、Although air is all around us, we can’t see it. We can feel it and breathe it. The air that surrounds the Earth is called the atmosphere (大气层) and it is made up mostly of two gases nitrogen and oxygen. Gravity pulls on the gasses and keeps the atmosphere close to the Earth’s surface. This is good, because we need oxygen in order to live.

There are many layers in the atmosphere. Because of gravity’s pull, most of the air is in the bottom layer. When scientists talk about the atmosphere, they often use the word altitude. They measure altitude from sea level, which is the place where the land and sea are at the same level. There is a lot of oxygen at sea level.

As the altitude increases, the atmosphere has less gas. This means there is less oxygen to breathe. That’s why it is harder to breathe at the top of a mountain than it is at sea level.

【1】With the help of ________ , we have enough oxygen to live with.

A．altitude

B．gravity

C．nitrogen

【2】Which of the following is true about “altitude”?

B．There is less oxygen at sea level.

C．There is more oxygen at high altitude.
