• 1．A study published Monday found that people who sleep less tend to be fat，and experts said it's time to find out if more sleep will fight fatness．
     "We've put so much emphasis on diet and exercise that we've failed to recognize the value of good sleep，"said Fred Turek，a physician at Northwestern University．
     Monday's study from Eastern Virginia Medical School in Norfolk covered 1，000 people and found that total sleep time decreased as body mass index-a measure of weight based on height-increased．
     Men slept an average of 27 minutes less than women and overweight and fat patients slept less than patients with normal weights，it said．In general the fatter subjects slept about 1.8 hours a week less than those with normal weights．
     "Americans experience insufficient sleep and fat bodies．Clinicians are aware of the burden of fatness on patients，" the study said．
     "Our findings suggest that major extensions of sleep time may not be necessary，as an extra 20 minutes of sleep per night seems to be associated with a lower body mass index，" it added．
     "We caution that this study does not set up a cause-and-effect relationship between restricted sleep and fatness，but investigations indicating success in weight loss via extensions of sleep would help greatly to set up such a relationship．"
     The study was published in the Archives of Internal Medicine along with an editorial by Turek and Northwestern colleague Joseph Bass commenting on it and related research．
     In an interview，Turek said some studies have shown the lack of sleep causes declines in an appetite suppressing protein hormone，and increases in another hormone that causes a longing for food．"In addition neuropathies （神經療法） in the brain governing sleep and fatness appear to overlap （部分重疊），"he said．
     "Fatness has been rising dramatically in developed countries and reached epidemic （流行?。?levels in the United States，" it added，"leading to a variety of health problems．"
  
  （1）What's the passage mainly about？

  
  A．People who sleep less tend to get fat．
  B．Fat people need lots of sleep to lose weight．
  C．Sleeping has nothing to do with fatness．
  D．Fatness has reached epidemic levels in developed countries．

  A．Lack of sleep causes declines in a desire limiting protein hormone．
  B．Americans experience sufficient sleep and fat bodies．
  C．The findings suggest that major extensions of sleep time may be necessary．
  D．Fatness has reached epidemic levels in America．
  （3）Which of the following is NOT close to the underlined word "suppressing"？

• 2．Americans think that travel is good for you．Some even think it can help solve one of the country's worst problems-crime （犯罪）．
     Crime worries a lot of people．Every year，the number of crimes goes up and up．And many criminals （罪犯） are young．Most of them-85 percent are boys．They often come from sad homes，with only one parent or no parents at all．There are problems with alcohol and drugs．
     There are many young criminals in prison．But prison doesn't change them-60 to 70 percent will go back to crime when they come out of prison．
     One man，Bob Burton，thought of a new idea．In the old days，young men had to live a difficult life on the road．They learned to be strong and brave，and to help their friends in time of danger．This helped them to grow into men．So Bob Burton started "Vision Quest"．
     He takes young criminals on a long，long journey with horses and wagons 3，000 miles through seven states．They are on the road for more than a year．
     The young people on Vision Quest （boys and a few girls） all have bad problems．Most of them have already spent time in prison．This is their last chance．
     It's hard work on the road．The day starts before the sun comes up．The boys and girls have to feed the horses．Some of them have never loved anyone before．But they can love their horses．That love can help them to a new life．
     Not all young people on Vision Quest will leave crime behind them.30 or 40 percent will one day be in prison again．But that's a lot better than 60 or 70 percent．Bob Burton is right．Travel can be good for you．
     Even today，Americans still say，"Go west，young men．"
  
  （1）According to the passage，travel is good for you because it can

  ．
  A．get rid of crime completely
  B．change the way of life
  C．help to reduce criminals
  D．build up your body
  （2）Which of the following is not the character of the criminals？

  
  A．Most of them are young．
  B．They often don't have a good family．
  C．They may often drink wine too much and take drugs．
  D．They like travelling far away from their homes．
  （3）Which of the following statements is TRUE？

  
  A．As time goes on，the criminals become fewer and fewer．
  B．Most of the criminals will do better after they come out of prison．
  C．Bob's new idea changes most young criminals better．
  D．The young criminals on Vision Quest all lead a happy life．
  （4）The young people on Vision Quest have to

  D．live a new life

• 3．It's never easy to admit you are in the wrong．Being human，we all need to know the art of apologizing．Look back with honesty and think how often you've judged roughly，said unkind things，pushed yourself ahead at the expense of a friend．Then count the occasions when you indicated clearly and truly that you were sorry．A bit of frightening，isn't it？Frightening because some deep wisdom in us knows that when even a small wrong has been committed，some mysterious moral feeling is disturbed；and it stays out of balance until fault is acknowledged and regret expressed．
     I remember a doctor friend，the late Clarence Lieb，telling me about a man who came to him with a variety of signs：headaches，insomnia and stomach trouble．No physical cause could be found．Finally Dr．Lieb said to the man，"Unless you tell me what's worrying you，I can't help you．"
     After some hesitation，the man confessed that，as executor of his father's will，he had been cheating his brother，who lived abroad，of his inheritance （繼承權）．Then and there the wise old doctor made the man write to his brother asking forgiveness and enclosing a cheque as the first in restoring their good relation．He then went with him to the mailbox in the corridor．As the letter disappeared，the man burst into tears．"Thank you．"he said，"I think I'm cured．"And he was．
     A heartfelt apology cannot only heal a damaged relationship but also make it stronger．If you can，think of someone who deserves an apology from you，someone you have wronged，or judged too roughly，or just neglected，do something about it right now．
  
  （1）When we have done something wrong，we should

  ．
  A．look back with honesty and think over the fault carefully
  B．go to a doctor
  C．admit the fault and express the regret
  D．forgive ourselves
  （2）What will happen if we have done something wrong？

  
  A．Our logic of thinking will be disturbed．
  B．We shall be sad．
  C．We shall apologize at once．
  D．Our moral balance will be disturbed．
  （3）What exactly was the patient's trouble？

  
  A．The losing of a friend．
  B．Headaches，insomnia，and stomach trouble．
  C．Something wrong with his conscience．
  D．Some unknown physical weakness．
