Cat cafés to open in Toronto & Montreal

THESTAR,TORONTO

Soon,people in Toronto may be able to enjoy a hot chocolate or a coffee in a“cat café”.Two groups of people in the city are trying to raise enough money to open cat cafés.

The idea is simple:a café for humans—with lots of cats around.People will be able to pet the cats while they're sipping their coffee.There are already cat cafés in places like England,France and in Asia like in Japan,South Korea and China.

Jennifer Morozowich plans to open her Kitty Cat Café in September.She told The Toronto Star that it will have six to fifteen cats.Morozowich is a cat lover who says that cats help to lower people's stress levels.She is also planning to host special“Litter-ature”events,with the Dundas West Animal Hospital,at her café,with kids reading to the cats.

Some experts say that reading to animals helps kids learn to read better because animals enjoy hearing the human voice and kids don't have to feel stress about making mistakes while they're reading.

Another cat café,Pet Me Meow,will be open in autumn if Ashkan Rahimi and Jeff Ro have their way.They are trying to raise money to open a place where cats will live,and people can come in and buy a coffee and hang out with the cats.

Both sets of possible café owners will have to make sure their cafés are very clean.The City of Toronto has many rules that people have to follow who want to serve food to humans when there are animals nearby.For example,the animal boxes need to be in a separate space away from the eating area.

The café owners will get the cats from rescue shelters(救護(hù)所).If the coffee drinkers fall in love with a certain cat,they may be able to take it home.

The Toronto cat cafés won't be Canada's first.Happy Cat Café is opening in July in Montreal.

World Sleep Day is on March 21st. Last year’s theme was “Healthy sleep, away from the slow disease”. Its aim is to celebrate the benefits (好處) of good and healthy sleep.

Sleep is like food for the brain. Enough sleep helps the body and brain grow and develop. According to the National Sleep Foundation in the US, adults need seven to nine hours of sleep every night. For students aged 10 to 17, a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours per night.

But many students don’t get enough sleep because of early school start times and heavy homework. About 80 percent of middle school students don’t get enough sleep, the China Youth and Children Research Center reported. For some students, they want to sleep early, but they keep worrying about their schoolwork and can’t fall asleep quickly. For others, they may even have insomnia which might keep them awake all night.

These sleeping problems greatly affect people’s lives. Experts have shown that lack of sleep for teenagers leads to poor grades. Students without enough sleep cannot pay attention in class or do well in sports. Also, lack of sleep may make them depressed.

Luckily, with good sleep habits, it is easier to fall asleep. Some of these good habits include avoiding drinks that make people excited late in the day, going to sleep at the same time each night, and sleeping in a comfortable place that is dark, quiet, and neither too warm nor too cold.

1.If Li Hong is 15 years old, how much sleep does she need every night?

A. 10-12 hours. B. 8-9 hours

C. 7 hours. D. Less than 7 hours.

2.What might happen if teens don’t get enough sleep?

A. They might do well in sports.

B. Their bodies and brains might grow better.

C. They might feel depressed.

D. They might not be able to finish their schoolwork.

3.Which is NOT a reason why so many students don’t get enough sleep?

A. They cannot pay attention in class.

B. They have too much homework to do.

C. They have sleeping problems.

D. They have to get up very early to go to school.

4.Which of the following are good sleeping habits?

b. Going to bed at the same time.
