After a 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 the other.
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 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.

Our eating habits are very important for good health and a strong body. There are times when most of us would have sweets and ice-cream rather than eat meat and rice. Sweets and ice-cream are not bad for the stomach if we eat at the end of a meal. If we drink beer at meals, it may take away our appetite. It is important for us to eat our meal at the same time each day. When we feel hungry, it is a sign that our body needs food. When we feel angry or excited, we may not want to eat. A long time ago, in England, some judges used to decide whether a man was telling the truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not swallow the bread, it was a sign that he was not telling the truth. Although this seems very strange and rather foolish, it is indeed an excellent way of finding out the truth. A man who is worrying about something has difficulty in swallowing anything dry. Because he is worried, he loses his appetite and does not want to eat.
小题1:Why do we have to form good eating habits?| A．Because we want to eat more. | | B．Because we enjoy our meal. | | C．Because we want to save time. | | D．Because we want to keep fit. |
小题2:When do you think it is good to eat sweets and ice-cream according to the passage?| A．When we are happy | | B．When we have a good appetite. | | C．After a meal. | | D．Before a meal |
小题3:The word“swallow” means______.| A．take into the stomach through the throat | | B．eat with difficulty | | C．break with the teeth before taking in | | D．drink like a fish |
小题4:When does the writer think it would be better to have our meal?.| A．When our work is over. | | B．At the fixed time every day. | | C．When we feel happy. | | D．When every family member is home. |
小题5:What could a man do if he told a lie according to some judges in old England?.| A．He could eat a lot of food. | | B．He could hardly need any food. | | C．He could swallow some dry bread easily. | | D．He could not swallow any dry bread. |

I"m still worried，however，about having too much to read．

Going to the park with your family is a time-honored tradition during the warmer months whether you live in the city or in a rural area. The most common thing for kids to do at the park is to play on the playground equipment. This is great for kids. For parents, however, playground time is something not quite as exciting. It’s nice to socialize with other parents and enjoy watching the little ones at play, but grown-ups can’t easily participate in the playground fun. In order to make the most of spring and summer park trips parents might want to consider trying a few new activities.
Soft Frisbees and balls are great things to bring to the park and enjoy with kids. Parents can participate in playing catch. They can enjoy the fresh air and physical activity together. Other lawn games and toys like badminton can easily be taken to the park for an afternoon of fun.
If it is a breezy day, it might be just perfect for flying a kite. Kite flying is a wonderful family fun activity. Children who are too small to fly a kite themselves can have fun chasing it and helping older siblings hold the string. Slightly older children can enjoy learning to fly kites. Teens and parents can enjoy the challenge of making kites. Best of all, kites are inexpensive and can be used in almost any open space on a breezy day.
After these, the first thought might be to head home for a meal or a snack. However, bringing a snack or having a picnic can add an exciting element to the day out and can allow the family to enjoy more park time together. Everyday foods like sandwiches and apples can be very appetising. If you decide to pack a picnic, just remember to bring bags for any garbage you might produce!
小题1:Why is the playground time not quite exciting for parents?| A．There is no equipment for them. | | B．They can’t interact with each other. | | C．They can’t easily enjoy the fun. | | D．They have to watch their kids. |
小题2:What does the underlined word “appetising” in the last paragraph probably mean?| A．Convenient. | B．Delicious. | | C．Expensive. | D．Terrible. |
小题3:What can the smallest kids do with kites?| A．Make a kite. | B．Fly a kite. | | C．Watch a kite. | D．Chase a kite. |
小题4:What is the main idea of the passage?| A．The benefits of parents playing with children. | | B．Suitable weather for playing in the park. | | C．Activities parents can do with their children in the park. | | D．Kite flying during spring and summer. |
