A
Every person is unique (独特的) and so are our sleep needs. But in today’s busy world, how much sleep should we be getting each night? Research suggests that most healthy adults need seven to nine hours of sleep each night. Children and teens need even more sleep than adults. The following is a breakdown of the recommended (推荐) number of hours of sleep people need by age:
INFANTS
(0 to 2 months): .........................15 to 18 hours
(2-12 months): ...........................14 to 15 hours
CHILDREN
(12-18 months): ........................13 to 15 hours
(18 months-3 years): .................12 to 14 hours
(3-5 years): ................................11 to 13 hours
(5-12 years): ...............................9 to 11 hours
TEENS
(13-19 years): .............................8.5 to 9.5hours
ADULTS
(more than 20 years): .................7 to 9 hours
As children grow, they go through many changes, including changes in sleep. Children and teens, like adults, need a regular sleep and wake timetable, even on weekends. Sleep should follow a relaxing bedtime plan. The bedroom should be cool, dark and quiet. Getting a good night’s rest may become more difficult as they grow older because of more responsibilities (责任) and activities, the influence of TV, computers and so on. However, sleep is still an important part of teens’ health and overall quality of life. So, how do teens measure how much sleep they need? If a teen has trouble staying awake during school, they probably are not getting enough quality sleep.
Most sleep problems are treatable. If teens are having trouble in getting enough sleeps they need, it is important to see a doctor or other health experts.

It was a dark and cold night. The car driver didn’t have even one passenger all day. When he went by the railway station, he saw a young man coming out with two bags in his hands. So he quickly opened the door of the car and asked, “Where do you want to go, sir?”
“To the Star Hotel,” the young man answered. When the car driver heard that, he didn’t feel happy. The young man would give him only three dollars because the hotel was not far from the railway station. But suddenly, he had an idea. He took the passenger through many streets of the big city.
After a long time, the car finally arrived at the hotel. “You should pay me fifteen dollars,” the car driver said to the young man. “What! Fifteen dollars? Do you think I’m a fool?

Stanley Fields, who wrote “Sad, Sad Cowboy”, which won this year’s Philip’s Prize as the best song of the year, might have had a very different job if his parents had had their way.
In an interview, Fields said, “When I was a child, my father always told me I should put down my guitar and do my homework. He wanted me to go to college and become a teacher as he and his brother were.”
Fields explained that he made a great effort to please his father, but often his love of
music became too great and he would steal into a garden behind his house and play his guitar and make up song.
“I made it to Stanton College,” he laughed,“but I took accounting（会计）instead of teaching. And to pay my own way, I played the guitar and sang at a local nightclub.”
While Fields was still in his senior year（大学四年级）, an executive（总裁）of a record company came into the club as he was singing one of his own songs. The executive liked what he heard and signed the man to a contract（合同）.
Since graduating from Stanton College in 1973, Fields has spent his full time writing and singing songs. “My Heartache,”a song he wrote while in college, reached number seventeen in the top twenty hit songs of 1974 and in 1977 his song “Rambling”was the song for the movie of the same name.
68. According to the passage, Stanley Fields’__________.
A. parents were teachers B. mother and brother were teachers

B. made up songs before entering college
C. began writing songs after attending college
D. had songs published before attending college

A. done as they wished
B. found their way of punishing（惩罚） Fields
C. made conditions easy for Fields’ future
D. stopped Fields from going to college

It was the first snow of winter—an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now, I had been old enough to dress myself, but today I would need some help. Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times, but I think she may still remember this one.
I managed to get into my wool snow trousers. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well. It was a hand-mc-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes, At least my hat and scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots.
In her calm, motherly voice she said, “By the end of winter, you will all be able to put on your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence.
I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected grown-ups to do all the work. After much pushing, she managed to get the first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.
I announced, “They’re on the wrong feet.”
She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again.
“They’re my brother’s boots, you know,” I said. “I hate them”.
Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying little girl. She pushed and pushed, less gently this times. With a greater sigh, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your mittens（连指手套）？”
I looked into her eyes and said, “I didn’t want to lose them, so I hid them in the toes of my boots.
72. The little girl was more satisfied with her _____.
A. trousers B. jacket C. boots D. hat
73. Miss Finlayson had difficulty with the girl’s boots mainly because _____.
A. the girl got them from her brother B. the girl put something in them
C. they were on the wrong feet D. they did not fit the girl well
74. Why does the author say Miss Finlayson would remember that first snow day?
A. Because the little girl was in her brother’s clothes.
B. Because it was the most exciting day of the winter.
C. Because the little girl played a trick on her.
D. Because the little girl wore a pretty scarf.
75. We can learn from the text that Miss Finlayson _____. 21世纪教育网
A. was losing confidence in the little girl. 21世纪教育网
B. gradually lost patience with the little girl.
C. became disappointed with the little girl. Ks5
D. was getting bored with the little girl.

Dear Peter,
I’m writing to ask whether you are able to do me a favor.
I want to have a pen friend, hopefully a girl in her early twenties, and with interests similar to mine. In my mind, she is someone who is interested in traveling, swimming , and playing table tennis. Besides, it wouls be better for her to have a pet dog as I have kept one at home for some time. With such a pen friend, I think I can share with her our traveling experiences, taking care of pets, or whatever we have in common. And I believe I will improve my English by doing so and learn more about her country.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Best regards,
