单选题After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day. There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to another. Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. (Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement. If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep!

单选题In the United States, 30 percent of the adult (成年人) population has a "weight problem". To many people, the cause is clear: we eat too much. But scientific evidence (科学证明) does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically (体力地), walked more, used machines much less, and didn't watch television. Several modern studies, moreover (此外), have shown that fatter people don't eat more on average (平均) than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as a 1970 study of 3,545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer (苗条) people. Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts. The more the men ran, the greater loss (失去) of body fat. The more they ran, the greater their increase (增加) in food intake (吸收). Thus those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost greatest amount of body fat.

单选题 Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives a credit which may matter toward a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice. For every course followed a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a constant pressure affair. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective word of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating, has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to a later career.
