【題目】Up to 65% of children don't get as much sleep as they should do, and this can make them nervous and slower at school, scientists say.
So how long should young people sleep each night? The answer is between eight and ten hours. If you don't get enough sleep at night, you'll have less energy the next day.
①But the scientists say many children have missed out on 4, 500 hours of sleep by the time they are seven years old. They say that children miss sleep because they have TVs and computers in their rooms,and busy parents don't read to their younger children at night any more. The traditional "bedtime story" helps children to relax and fall asleep peacefully. Children with TVs and computers in their bedrooms are more likely to sleep badly, and to get less than eight hours' sleep. Even losing one hour's sleep a night can mean that children do less well at school.
German scientists think that your brain(大腦)keeps working while you are asleep.②To show that they were right,they gave two groups of people a problem to work out. One group went to sleep, and the other group stayed awake. The result? The people who slept worked out the answer
more quickly. This showed that their brains had been trying to find the answer while the people were asleep. So, make sure you get enough sleep tonight, and you'll be at your best tonight, and you'll be at your best tomorrow!
【1】What problem do more than a half of students have?
A. They don't get on well with their studies.

【2】According to the third paragraph, what influences many children's sleep worst?
A. Their parents' noise. B. Bedtime stories.

Habits in Russia
There is an old saying that says when in Rome, do as the Romans do. I learned the meaning of this when I stayed in Russia as a visiting scholar(學者).

【題目】請閱讀下面這篇文章,根據(jù)所提供的信息,完成信息卡。
Halloween is a strange holiday. It started several centuries ago in Europe. It began as “Hallow Evening” meaning “holy night”. At that time November 1st was called “All Saints' Day” and people honoured all the saints who did not have their own special day. People believed that October 31st was the time when all the evil spirits were supposed to be active. So people would play all sorts of pranks on each other.
Black is one of the traditional Halloween colors, probably because Halloween festivals and traditions took place at night.Pumpkins are a symbol of Halloween, so orange has become the other traditional Halloweencolor.Making lanterns out of pumpkins is a Halloween custom.
Halloween is great fun for children.They dress up as ghosts (鬼), witches (女巫), Small children go “TrickorTreating”.They wear costumes, knock on doors, and shout, “Trick or Treat!” People almost always choose to give them candy as a treat, instead of choosing to receive a trick from the children.Adults sometimes “trick or treat” their friends, too.Usually the “treat” is a glass of wine or some small gifts.
