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, and turning in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually fall asleep. When you wake up, you don’t feel refreshed, but tired and worn out and unable to face a new day.

Dr. Henry Winkle, in a recent newspaper article entitled StressandSleep, indicates that stress / worry and (lack of ) sleep are directly related. Dr. Winkle says, “The more we worry, the less we sleep, the more we are unable to deal with stress. If we can find a way to get a good night’s sleep,” he adds, “we can often find the energy 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 varies a lot. Seven hours is about the average amount, though strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache instead of making you feel more refreshed.

Dr. Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important. People who work late should try to give themselves a short break and do something restful before going to bed. This could be watching TV or listening to music. Doing some exercise earlier in the day should help you to feel physically as well as mentally tired. A bedtime drink can also help, but coffee or tea should be avoided as they contain caffeine and will keep you awake. “When you put the light out,” Dr. Winkle says, “concentrate on relaxing your muscles, working slowly up from your feet, and you’ll be asleep before you know it.”

1.What is the best title of the passage?  (No more than 10 words)

2.What does the underlined word “indicates” in the second paragraph mean?(1 word)

3.What’s the relationship between stress and sleep according to Dr. Henry Winkle? (No more than 20 words)

4.Someone says that the longer you sleep, the better you feel. Try to find some arguments from the passage against the idea. (No more than 30 words)

5.Doing what things can help us fall asleep quickly? (No more than 10 words)

 

Who Owns the Moon?

Within the next ten years, the U. S., China, Israel, and a crowd of private companies plan to set up camp on the moon. So if and when they plant a flag, does that give them property rights?

A NASA working group hosted a discussion this week to ask: Who owns the moon? The answer, of course, is no use. The Outer Space Treaty, the international signed by more than 100 countries, states that the moon and other celestial bodies (天体) are the province of all mankind. No doubt that would annoy all of the people throughout the ages, like monks from the Middle Ages, who have tried to claim the moon was theirs.

But ownership is different from property rights. People who rent apartments, for example, don’t own where they live, but they still hold rights. So with all of the upcoming missions (派遣团) to visit the moon and beyond, space industry thought leaders are seriously asking themselves how to deal with a potential land rush.

“ This is a very relevant discussion right now. We’ve got this wave of new lunar missions from around the world,” said William Marshall, a scientist in the small-spacecraft office at NASA, but who spoke this week at an event hosted by NASA’s Co Lab, a collaborative(协力完成的) public-private working group. He was speaking from his personal interest and not on behalf of the agency.

To be sure, the United States aims to send astronauts back to the moon by as early as 2015, in a mission that would include a long-term settlement. China and Israel, among others, are also working on lunar projects. And for the first time, several private groups are building spacecraft to land on the moon in an attempt to win millions of dollars in the Google Lunar X Prize. Some participants say that they plan to gain some property rights in the mission.

1.In the passage the writer seems to be worrying that ________.

A.the US will live on the moon forever

B.the moon will not be able to hold all mankind

C.the potential land rush will become more and more frequent

D.no one can answer the question “ Who owns the moon?”

2.“ The Google Lunar X Prize” aims to ________.

A.encourage private groups to land on the moon

B.help NASA host a discussion about land rush on the moon

C.help some developing countries to complete their lunar projects

D.reward some countries or private groups which haven’t stepped on the moon

3.The underlined word “ that” in the first paragraph refers to ________.

A.the Outer Space Treaty

B.if and when they plant a flag

C.the NASA working group

D.monks from the Middle Ages

4.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

A.The U. S. astronauts will live on the moon for longer time.

B.Many countries and private groups plan to go to the moon.

C.Why some private groups wish to land on the moon.

D.It is easy to gain some property rights on the moon.

5.We can infer from the passage that ________.

A.it’s a waste of time to work on the lunar project

B.“ The Outer Space Treaty” forbids private groups to land on the moon

C.all mankind has the right to land on the moon

D.whenever you come to the moon, you’ll get some property rights on it

 “In only six days I lost seven pounds of weight.”

“Two full inches in the first three days!”

These are the kinds of statements used in magazine,newspaper,radio and television ads,promising new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device. The promoters of products say they can shape the legs,slim the face,smooth wrinkles,or in some other way to add to beauty or desirability.

Often such products are nothing more than money­making things for their promoters. The results they produce are questionable,and some are dangerous to health.

To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public,it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation. If the product is a drug,FDA(Food and Drug Administration)can require proof under the Food,Drug,and Cosmetic Act that is safe and effective before it is put on the market. But if the product is a device,FDA has no authority to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. If a product already on the market is a danger to health,FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily, or it can take legal action,including seizure(查封)of the product.

One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor,which had been sold for reducing the waistline (腰围). The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads. FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life.

Obviously,most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings(法律诉讼),and new devices appear continually. Before buying,it is up to the consumer to judge the safety or effectiveness of such items.

1.It can be inferred that the ads mentioned in the text are________.

A.objective          B.costly             C.unreliable         D.illegal

2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

A.The court is in charge of removing dangerous products.

B.New products are more likely to be questionable.

C.The production of a device must be approved by FDA.

D.The promoters usually just care about profits.

3.FDA can ask for the proof of safety and effectiveness of a product________.

A.if it is a drug

B.if it is a device

C.if its consumers make complaints

D.if its distributors challenge FDA's authority

4.The Relaxacisor is mentioned as________.

A.a product which was designed to produce electricity

B.a product whose distributor was involved in a legal case

C.a successful advertisement of a beauty product

D.an example of a quality beauty product

5.The author intends to________.

A.make consumers aware of the promoters' false promises

B.show the weakness of the law on product safety

C.give advice on how to keep young and beautiful

D.introduce the organization of FDA
