Are you having a problem going to sleep? Have you tried many ways such as drinking a glass of warm milk or listening to some soft music or counting sheep but it still does not work? Cooling down your brain may be a great way to help you get good sleep. A new study has found that you might fall asleep quicker if you try cooling down your brain. Daniel and Eric from the University of Pittsburgh Medical School led the study. They examined twelve people who had insomnia. The other twelve had no problems in sleeping. Each of them wore a cap on their heads at bed time. The caps had tubes (管) inside filled with water. The researchers moved the water through the tubes and then changed the temperature of the water. People had trouble sleeping (called “patients” in the following parts of the passage) often had more chemical reactions (化学反应) in their brains. The researchers thought lowering the temperature of the head might help. On the first two nights of testing, the patients wore no water caps. During the next two nights, the caps were worn, but the water was not cooled. Then the researchers cooled the water a little for another two nights. On the final two nights of the study, the temperature of the water was made much cooler. The situation of the insomnia did not become better until the temperature was about 14ºC. Most of the patients fell asleep faster and slept better when the coolest water was moving around their heads. This is the only beginning of the head temperature study. But they believe they have discovered something important that needs more research. 1.A new study to help people fall asleep quicker is _________. A. counting sheep B. listening to soft music C. cooling down your brain D. drinking a glass of warm milk 2.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “insomnia”? A. 抑郁症. B. 失眠症. C. 自闭症. D. 头痛. 3.According to the passage, the test lasts for _________ nights. A. 12 B. 10 C. 8 D. 6 4.Insomnia patients became better when _________. A. the water was cooled about 14ºC B. The caps were filled with water C. the water was not cooled D. the water caps were worn on their heads

Time went by…the little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree every day. One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. “Come and play with me,” the tree asked the boy. “I’m no longer a kid. I wouldn’t play around the tree any more.” The boy replied. “I want toys. I need money to buy them.” “Sorry, I don’t have money. But you can pick all my apples and sell them.

Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time; if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the languages he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people. In the same way, when children learn to do all the other things, they learn to do without being taught-to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle-compare those performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his own mistakes for himself, let alone correct them. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not. If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work？ Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way to get the right answer. Let’s end this nonsense of grades, exams, marks. Let us throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know. 1.What does the author think is the best way for children to learn things？ A. by copying what other people do B. by making mistakes and having them corrected C. by listening to explanations from skilled people D. by asking a great many questions 2.According to the writer, teachers in school should _____ A. allow children to learn from each other B. point out children’s mistakes whenever found C. correct children’s mistakes as soon as possible D. give children more book knowledge 3.The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are___. A. not really important skills B. more important than other skills C. basically different from learning adult skills D. basically the same as learning other skills 4.Exams, grades, and marks should be abolished because children’s progress should only be estimated by___. A. educated persons B. the children themselves C. teachers D. parents
