Thanks to the huge success of Harry Potter, many teenagers dream about living in an ancient castle. These dreams may include beautiful silk dresses, delicious food, servants and of course, magic. However, real life in an English castle was not easy. With thick stonewalls and high towers, castles were built for defence(防御). So they were not good places to live in. In medieval times, castles must have been noisy and smelly places. Horses, cattle, chickens and sheep walked free, blacksmiths did ironwork, soldiers practised sword (劍) fights, and children of all ages played around them. Castles did not have central heating; the only heat came from the fireplace. Even in summer the castle was cool. People living in the castles had to use blankets to keep warm while at work.
Life during the Middle Ages began at sunrise. Servants lit the fire, swept the floor and cooked the morning meal. The mid-morning meal was the main meal of the day and often included three or four courses (一道菜). After dinner, everyone continued his or her work. The owner of the castle, the lord, sometimes took his guests hunting or shooting. His wife, the lady, spent much of the day watching the maids (女仆) work, as well as people working in the kitchen. She also kept an eye on the weavers and embroiderers who made clothes for the family. Supper was simple and eaten late, just before bedtime.
You may find some old magic books in a castle as Harry Potter once did. Read them before you go to bed, because when you fall asleep the magic of castle life may appear before your eyes.
【小題1】 For what purpose were the castles built in England?

A.To defend the city or country against enemies.
B.To provide a working place for blacksmiths.
C.To raise poultry (家禽) and livestock (家畜).
D.To provide a place for teenagers to learn magic.
【小題2】 Why were the ancient castles noisy?
A.Because soldiers practiced sword fights there.
B.Because blacksmiths did ironwork there.
C.Because children of all ages played around them.
D.All of the above.
【小題3】 Which of the following about family life in castles is true according to the passage?
A.The servants in castles lived an easy life.
B.The wife spent much of the day at home.
C.Supper was eaten before sunset.
D.Dinner was eaten in the middle of the day.
【小題4】The main idea of this passage is ______.
A.castles were not good places to live in
B.castles in novels are different from those in history
C.Harry Potter's story in a castle affected people
D.what real life was like in an ancient castle

Below is some advice on how to sleep better.
1. Maintain a regular bed and wake time schedule
Go to bed at the same time every night. Choose a time when you normally feel tired, so that you don’t toss or turn. Try not to break this routine on weekends when it may be tempting to stay up late. If you want lo changeyour bedtime, help your body adjust by making the changein small daily increments, such as 15 minutes earlier or later each day. As with your bedtime, try to maintain yourregular wake-time even on weekends.
2.Fight after-dinner drowsiness(睡意)
If you find yourself getting sleepy before your bed-time, get off the couch and do something mildly stimulating to avoid falling asleep, such as washing the dishes, calling a friend, or getting clothes ready for the next day. If you give in to the drowsiness, you may wake up later in the night and have trouble getting back to sleep.
3. Keep your room dark and cool
When it’s time to sleep, make sure that your environment is dark. Even dim light —especially those from TV or computer screens —can confuse the body clock. Heavy curtains or shades can help block light from windows, or you can try an eye mask to cover your eyes. The temperature of your bedroom also affects sleep. A bedroom that is too hot or too cold can interfere with quality sleep.
4. Turn off your television
Many people use the television to fall asleep or relaxat the end of the day. You may even have a television inyour bedroom. However, television actually stimulates themind, rather than relaxing it. Part of this is due to con­tent. Late night news and prime time shows frequently have disturbing, violent material. Even non-violent pro­gramming can have commercials that are jarring and loud.
5. Exercise early
Exercise helps promote restful sleep if it is done sev­eral hours before you go to bed. Exercise can help you fall asleep faster and sleep more soundly— as long asit ’s done at the right time. Try to finish exercising at least three hours before bed or work out earlier in the day.
6. Consult your doctor
Use a sleep diary and talk to your doctor. Note what type of sleep problem is affecting your sleep or if you aresleepy when you wish to be awake and alert. Try these tips and record your sleep and sleep-related activities in a sleep diary. If problems continue, discuss the sleep diary with your doctor. There may be an underlying cause and you will want to be properly diagnosed. Your doctor will help treat the problem or may refer you to a sleep specialist.
【小題1】To prevent yourself from sleeping too much on weekends, you should________.

A.go lo bed 15 minutes earlier than usual
B.go to bed at usual time
C.go to bed at any time
D.make an adjustment to your bedtime
【小題2】Which of the following makes it easier for you to have a sound sleep?
A.Watching violent programmesbefore going to bed.
B.Changing your bedtime only a little every day.
C.Using heavy curtains or an eye mask to block light.
D.Completing your workout just before bedtime.
【小題3】The following ways can help fight after-dinner drowsinessEXCEPT_______.
A.making a telephone call
B.doing some washing
C.getting clothes ready for the next day
D.having a rest on the sofa
【小題4】 If your sleep problems continue, you’d better_____________
