7、Scattered(分散) throughout the various reports on sleep research are several that describe some unusual behavior by people who are sleepwalking. These include eating, making phone calls and even murder.

Now, there’s a new case appearing in one more study on this strange phenomenon: sleep e-mailing. In an article published in journal Sleep Medicine, Seton Hall University researchers document the following case of a 44-year-old woman:

This woman received a puzzling phone call from a friend who said she was accepting her dinner invitation ― an invitation that the woman could not remember having made.

The friend reminded the woman of the e-mail she had sent the night before ― an e-mail of which the woman also had no recollection（記憶）. However, a quick search through her sent e-mail folder did turn up one strange e-mail. She had apparently sent it to her friend ― at 11:47 the previous night.

The puzzling message said: “I don’t get it. Please explain Lucy! Come tomorrow and sort this out! Dinner and drinks, 4 pm? Wine and caviar (魚子醬) to bring only. Everything else, a guess?

There were two other e-mails sent to her friend at 11:50pm and 11:53 pm, each of which seemed to be written in a strange language, full of capitalization errors and phrases that didn’t make sense. According to Dr Fouzia Siddiqui, lead author of the case study, this particular sleepwalking case was unique and was the first and only published account of “sleep e-mailing”.

“Sleepwalking has occurred in the past where people would undertake other activities such as cooking or moving furniture around,” Siddiqui said. “ But this case is unique in that she wasn’t just sleeping but doing complex things like turning on her computer, remembering her user name and password and typing entire e-mails.”

Just what is sleepwalking? It is actually a kind of sleep disorder. Studies have found that somewhere between 5 and 10 percent of people are sleepwalkers.

It comes from a mixture of wakefulness and non-REM (非快速眼動(dòng)期) sleep. Sleepwalkers can carry out complex behavior such as driving, walking, e-mailing and telephoning in a sleep-like state. People with high levels of stress and anxiety, or those who have a family history of sleepwalking are more likely to experience it.

57. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. It analyzes what sleepwalking is and its effects on people.

B. It explains to readers why and how sleepwalking forms.

D. Sleepwalkers won’t hurt others at all when they are sleepwalking.

59. Why does Siddiqui say the case of the sleepwalking woman is unique?

A. Two of her e-mails sent while sleepwalking seemed like works from outer space .

B. The case of the sleepwalking woman has interested scientists in the world.

C. The case of the woman is the first known account of "sleeping e-mailing".

D. The sleepwalking woman took a lot of complex actions.

60. What does the phrase "make sense" mean in the 7th paragraph?

6、What is IRC? IRC is Internet Relay Chat. It is a group of networked server computers that let users connect and pass their messages among the networked servers in almost real time. In other words, it is a big chatting server, once you join a group, you are able to talk in an open forum (論壇)type environment or just one on one.
    What IRC Networks are out there? There are about fifty really mainstream IRC networks (groups of servers) you can connect to. The most common ones found are typically, ‘EF-Net’, ‘Under-Net’, and ‘DAL-Net’.
    What is a Channel? A channel is the name for the ‘group’ you are joining, or the ‘forum’ in which you want to talk. On IRC, channels are denoted (表示) as # Channel Name. For instance, say if you are interested in MP3 music, you may want to go to # MP3.
    How do I get on IRC? To get on IRC, you will need to get a client program. I personally suggest using ‘mIRC’, if you are in the windows environment. I have used the program for many years faithfully. It is a shareware（共享軟件）program that doesn’t disable after a given time period.
    What are the basic commands once I am on? Join # channel ― this will make you enter a channel. Part # channel ― this will make you exit a channel you are in. Nick new name ― this will change your current screen name.

A note as a warning about IRC. IRC is a wonderful forum for idea exchange, and a fun place to chat and learn. However you must keep in mind that you don’t know who is on the other end. That someone says they are 16 doesn’t mean they aren’t 45. Keep an eye on yourself and make sure not to give out any personal information on IRC before you know those on the other end of the line thoroughly. Attention! Safe IRCing everyone!
