     Do You Go To Sleep In Class?
     The "Acronym", our student newspaper, reports that most students go to sleep at 1: 30 a. m. Even if
 that's an exaggeration (夸張), it's too close to the truth. Scientists say teenagers should sleep nine hours
 each night. But that's hard to do.
     Some even "pull all-nighters". These are lazy students who have homework due (到期) the next day
  that they haven't done. In the morning they don't look healthy and you can tell who has been doing it.
     One of my classmates did a survey (調(diào)查) on the problem. She found that most kids pull all-nighters to
  finish homework, but some do it for other reasons, such as playing computer games!
     Maybe our lack of sleep is because of laziness-I think I'm a lazy student-or maybe it's because we have
  too much to do in American high schools.
     I usually go to bed around midnight. If I stayed up past 1: 30 a. m, I wouldn't get any work done. I'd be
  falling asleep at my computer. My classes begin at 7:30 a.m. I'm partly awake in my first class. By the
  second, I'm slightly tired and sleepy. By my third class, I'm sleepy. By midday I'm finally wide-awake.
 But by 3: 00 p. m., I'm slowing down again.
     Most American high schools seem to have such a problem.
     High school classes start at 7: 30 a. m., so students have to wake up one and a half hours before that to
  get ready and catch the bus. It's believed that lack of sleep can damage both grades and health.
     Some schools are paying attention. Classes in those schools start at 8:30 a. m.
1. What's the problem talked about in the passage?
    A. Many kids have too much homework to do.
    B. Many teenagers don't have enough sleep.
    C. Many children are crazy about playing computer games.
    D. Many kids are too lazy to finish their homework on time.
2. The underlined expression "pull all-nighters" most probably means _____.
    A. 開夜車
    B. 上夜班
    C. 睡懶覺
    D. 補(bǔ)作業(yè)
3. Which of the following is NOT a reason mentioned in the passage?
    A. Laziness.  
    B. Homework.
    C. Housework.  
    D. Computer games.
4. What's the idea suggested at the end of the passage?
    A. Later start of classes.  
    B. Less homework.
    C. Going to bed early.  
    D. Eating healthy food.

     These days, more and more students in the UK are taking a "gap year" between their graduation
from school arid their university studies. This means that they take a year off, to do something else,
before they start their studies.
     For most students,  spending time in foreign countries is the favorite activity-and Australia is the
favorite place to go.
     Many parents,  teachers and business people agree that traveling can teach important values.
     "After a year of travcling, I felt I'ci grown up. I had learnt the importance of relationships with people, 
on all sorts of levels. "
     There arc many companies around the world that welcome these students on their projects hclping
people in poorer countries, or even in your home country.  Although you don't get paid for your work, 
this
kind of work can teach important skills-decision making and finding answers to problems.  for cxample
that will help a student in a job one day.
     Finally,  getting some knowledge and experience in an area you hope to study or work in one day
will always bc very useful.
     If several university graduates are applying for the same job, gap year work cxperience allows you
to say:  "I've already had some experience of this kind of work. "
     And that can get you the job!
