单选题 If you are worried about things and are under a lot of stress at work or school, then you are probably not sleeping well. Worry can keep you awake, tossing and{{U}} (26) {{/U}}in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually {{U}}(27) {{/U}}asleep. When you wake up, you don't feel{{U}} (28) {{/U}}, but tired and worn out and {{U}}(29) {{/U}} to face a new day. Dr. Henry Winkle, in a recent newspaper article{{U}} (30) {{/U}}Stress and Sleep, {{U}}(31) {{/U}} that stress and lack of sleep are directly{{U}} (32) {{/U}}Dr. Winkle says, "the more we worry, the{{U}} (33) {{/U}}we sleep, the more we are unable to deal with{{U}} (34) {{/U}}" "If we can find a way to get a good night' s sleep," he {{U}}(35) {{/U}}," we can often find the {{U}}(36) {{/U}}to deal with what' s worrying us. " So, what is a good night' s sleep? Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in order to keep healthy{{U}} (37) {{/U}}a lot. Seven hours is about the average amount, {{U}}(38) {{/U}} strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache {{U}}(39) {{/U}} of making you feel more refreshed.

单选题{{I}}Questions 11～13 are based on the following dialogue.{{/I}}

单选题Children in the United States are exposed to many influences other than that of their families. Television is the most significant of these influences, because the habit of watching television usually begins before children start attending school. And, by the time that the average child finishes high school, he or she will have spent 18,000 hours in front of a television set as opposed to 12,000 hours in a classroom. Parents are concerned about these figures. They are also concerned about the lack of quality in television programs for children. The degree of violence in many of these shows also worries them. Even if it is unreal — a cartoon cat beating up a cartoon mouse with a baseball bat — this violence may have a negative effect on the young minds exposed to it. Studies indicate that, when children are exposed to violence, they may become aggressive or insecure. Parents are also concerned about the commercials that their children see on television. Many parents would like to see fewer commercials during programs for children. And some parents feel that these shows should not have any commercials at all because young minds are not mature enough to deal with the claims made by advertisers. Educational television has no commercials and has programs for children that many parents approve of. The most famous of these is ''Sesame Street'' , which tries to give preschool children a head start in learning the alphabet and numbers. It also tries to teach children useful things about the world in which they live. Even though most parents and educators give ''Sesame Street'' and shows like it high marks for quality, some critics argue that all television, whether educational or not, is harmful to children. These critics feel that the habit of watching hours of television every day turns children into bored and passive consumers of their world rather than encouraging them to become active explorers of it. We still do not know enough about the effects of watching television to be able to say whether or not it is good for children. Until we do, perhaps it would be wise to put a warning on television sets such as the one on cigarette packages: ''Caution: Watching Too Much Television May Be Harmful to Your Child''s Developing Mind.

单选题I can still remember my first day at school. I was only 6 years old at that time. It was a very big room. I sat at the desk near the window, but I couldn't see anything outside because the window was too high. There was a big map of the world on the wall and an old blackboard. I don't think I was worried or afraid at that time. There was another little boy next to me. He sat there and kept silent at first. Then he began to cry,because he didn't want to stay there. More and more students came in,but the boy didn't stop crying. "Morn, I want to go home. " He cried again and again. Later,the teacher came in. She went to the little boy,and said something to him. I couldn't hear what she said. Soon the boy stopped crying and began to smile. To this day, I still don't know what the teacher said to the little boy.
