- Passage 1 -

Up to 65% of children dont get as much sleep as they should do， and this can make them nervous and slower at school， scientists say.

So how long should young people sleep each night？ The answer is between eight and ten hours. If you dont get enough sleep at night， youll have less energy the next day.

But the scientists say many children have missed out on 4，500 hours of sleep by the time they are seven years old. They say that children miss sleep because they have TVs and computers in their rooms， and busy parents dont read to their younger children at night any more. The traditional “bedtime story” helps children to relax and fall asleep peacefully. Children with TVs and computers in their bedrooms were more likely to sleep badly， and to get less than eight hours sleep. Even losing one hours sleep a night can mean that children do less well at school.

German scientists think that your brain keeps working while you are asleep. To show that they were right， they gave two groups of people a problem to work out. One group went to sleep， and the other group stayed awake. The result？ The people who slept worked out the answer more quickly. This showed that their brains had been trying to find the answer while the people were asleep. So， make sure you get enough sleep tonight， and youll be at your best tonight， and youll be at your best tomorrow！

- Passage 2 -

For better eyesight （視力）， doctors advise limiting （限制） the hours of screen time and encourage having enough eye resting time.

However， another study shows that sitting in front of computer or TV screens for long hours is not the only reason for myopia （近視）. An Australian research team studied young children in Sydney and Singapore to find the reasons for myopia. The research team found that there were less children who had myopia in Sydney than those in Singapore， even though they spent more time in front of computer and TV screens. The major finding is that children in Sydney spend longer hours on outdoor sports than those in Singapore.

Indoor and outdoor sports both make the eyes pay attention to more distant （遠處的） objects， which stops the eyes from changing original shape. But outdoor sports may be better than indoor sports for myopia. Because natural light is good for eye growth and vitamin （維他命） D from the sunlight might be useful to it. Many doctors suggest that every child get its first eye test when he / she is about two and half years old， and even if his/her sight seems good enough. It is necessary for myopic （近視的） children to wear glasses to stop headaches， trouble reading and so on. It is also important that schools invite doctors to test their students eyes.

If that is not possible， school teachers should at least encourage parents and children to have regular eye examination and wear glasses. And parents should remember not only to limit the total screen time for their children， but also to encourage them to spend time outdoors.

（ ）1. What did the Australian research team study for？

A. To find the reasons for myopia. B. To find the ways to treat myopia.

C. To learn to choose right glasses. D. To improve childrens eyesight.

（ ）2. Why are there fewer children with myopia in Sydney than those in Singapore？

A. Because the children in Sydney watch TV less.

B. Because the children in Sydney have more eye resting time.

C. Because the children in Sydney use computer less.

D. Because the children in Sydney do more outdoor sports.

（ ）3. What is good for eye growth according to the passage？

A. Natural light. B. Vitamin D.

C. Natural light and Vitamin D. D. The sun.

（ ）4. Which of the following is TRUE？

A. Children should have eye tests as soon as they reach school age.

B. Looking more at distant objects can help the eyes keep their original shape.

C. Doing outdoor sports with no glasses is good for myopic children.

D. Children should limit their time in the sun to protect their eyes.
