13、One of the easiest and cheapest ways to help your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night, but more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health Organization, over half the people in the world may besleep-deprived. The result of this is not just a lot of tired people; in the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100,000 car accidents, and 1,500 deaths a year. Problems with sleep can also cause mental （心理的） problems, as well as medical problems such as high blood pressure and heart problems.
American culture values work and often doesn’t value sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are often called “lazy”. Many famous men say proudly, “I only have time to sleep four or five hours a night.” Students, especially college students, often sleep only a few hours a night. They often say, “I’m used to sleeping only a little.”
But according to experts, sleep is like money. If you sleep only five hours a day, you don’t “get used to it”, but instead, build up a “sleep deficit （亏损）”. “It’s like a credit card （a card used to buy things or services）,” says Dr. James Maas, “You are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back.” The more hours you don’t sleep, the more hours you should sleep to “pay back” the hours on your “sleep credit card”. For example, if you sleep four hours on Monday and then sleep eight hours on Tuesday, on Wednesday you will still have a “sleep deficit” of four hours. This deficit can continue for months or even years. People with a “sleep deficit” are sleep-deprived. Driving and making decisions can be dangerous for these people.
Another research shows people should sleep nine or ten hours every night. More than half the people in the world may be running a “sleep deficit”. You didn’t do your homework last night? Maybe you can tell your teacher that you were working hard on your sleep deficit.
“Don’t think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the day. That’s a foolish idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more,” said Winston Churchill.

A．7. B．6. C．11. D．8.
2．What does the underlined word “sleep-deprived” mean?

A．sleep more during the day, work more at night
B．sleep during the day influences your work

A．Sleep and Health
B．The Less Sleep, the More Danger

14、Nha Trang(芽庄), located in the middle of Vienam, is one of the most important tourist hubs, thanks to its beautiful beaches with fine and clean sand and the clear ocean water with comfortable temperatures all year round. In Nha Trang City, the rainy season lasts for only 2 months, which is a very favourable condition for a long tourist season and all-the-year tourist activities.
There are several places where people often go for holidays, such as Vinpearl, Diamond Bay and Ana Mandara, both in the city and on islands off the coast. The possibly most beautiful street of Nha Trang is Tran Phu Street along the seaside, sometimes referred to as the Pacific Coast Highway of Vietnam.
In addition, Nha Trang is a stopover for the yearly sailing race starting in Hong Kong. In the past several years, the city has welcomed many five-star sea cruises(游船). Besides Sail Boat Racing, Nha Trang provided many different kinds of tourist activities for visitors. Island Hopping, Scuba Diving and other sporting activities can be enjoyed in the city.
The city is most famous for fresh seafood and barbecued(烧烤过的) pork rolled in rice paper. The bird’s nest soup is considered as one of the best in Vietnam. Here, the bird’s nests are collected in the wild, on bird farms on the inlands off the coast and even in some houses in the inner city.

15、Books Bring Success

People growing with more books are more likely to be successful.
According to German novelist Heinrich Mann, a house without books is like a room without windows. Mann simply stated the value of books, but some researchers have found evidence that people with books in their homes really do gain a window on the world.
A new study in the journal Social Science Research, published in October, suggests that people who grow up with more books are more likely to have educational advantages, and to achieve more in life, than people who grow up without them.
In the study, over 160,000 adults from 31 countries and regions were asked about the number of books there were in their homes when they were 16 years old. They were then given tests in literacy (读写能力), numeracy (计算能力) and information communication technology.
The research shows that the number of books for each household varies greatly from country to country. For example, the number of books is 27 in Turkey, 143 in the UK and 218 in Estonia. But “the total effects of home library size on literacy are large everywhere”.
The researchers found that people who had only lower levels of secondary education but had a large number of books at home got a similar score as university graduates who grew up with only a few books.
The Guardian newspaper commented that “bookish adolescence makes for a good deal of educational advantage.”
“Adolescent exposure to books can compensate for shortcomings not only in adult literacy but also numeracy: its impacts are equal to additional years of education,” Sikora told Science Alert.
Apart from the educational benefits, growing up with more books also plays an important role in adult success.
Through analyzing their personal information, researchers found that people surrounded by books in adolescence are on average more successful in adulthood than those who had only few books at a younger age.
“Early exposure to books in the parental home matters because books are an basic part of routines and practices that enrich lifelong cognitive competencies (认知能力)”, Sikora told Science Alert. These competencies are important to future development.
Without doubt, the fact that we are moving toward a digital era could weaken the importance of printed books. For now, however, “they still seem to maintain quite a large positive benefit, which shows no sign of abating (减弱)”, researchers wrote in the paper.
1．What’s the study mainly about?
A．Reading habits of different countries.
B．The benefits of growing up with more books.
C．How reading books brings educational advantages.
D．The impacts of books on people of different ages.
2．How many books do an average British family own, according to the study?
A．27. B．32. C．143. D．218.
3．The underlined phrase “compensate for” probably means ______.
A．make up for B．result in C．prepare for D．draw attention to
4．According to the study, people who read more books in adolescence are likely to ______. 
a. have better literacy 
b. achieve more in adulthood
c. have better communication skills
d. achieve more pleasant personalities
A．ac B．bc C．cd D．ab
