Dear Smith,
I have a good news for you. All senior three students will take part in a mountain- climbing activity in May 18th, which is intending to help reduce our pressure from study. So I’m written to invite you to go along.
We plan to gather at the school gate at 8:20, weather permitting. Then they will set off at 8:30, heading for the mountains nearby on feet. After having a good time, we are supposed to go back school for lunch at about 12.
The suggestions are as following. You’d better wear strong and comfortably shoes so that you can enjoy the trip. A bottle of water and some snacks are also necessary in climbing. In addition, you can take with you a camera to get some photos take.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Yan.

How to convince your fellow students to vote for you in an election?
1._________________________________________
Think about why you want to run and what you want to do if you win. These are your issues. Then let people know what you will do if elected. When you do this, be careful not to make promises you can’t keep. Make sure your issues affect all students. If you promise to try to get the whole school painted your favourite color, students probably won’t vote for you. But, if you promise to get rid of that yucky(令人反感的)lunch menu item that no one likes, or raise money for more computers in the library, students will see that you are interested in things they care about, and they’ll vote for you.
2.____________________________________________
Keep it short, simple, and interesting, and students will remember you. Start by writing down your issues and the reasons you think you’re a good person for the job. This is the heart of the speech and will convince other students to vote for you. Start with a story to get people listening and then move on to your issues. Practice your speech so you get used to it, and you won’t be as nervous. Ask your parents or friends to listen a couple of times before the big day. When the time comes to give your speech, relax. You’ll be ready and the other students will notice.
3._____________________________________________
One of the best ways to get people to vote for you is to talk to them about it. Ask your friends to help. In many elections, people don’t vote at all. If you take the time to talk to them ,and remind them to vote, you’ll increase your chances of winning. Remind them why you’re running, and why they should vote for you. They’ll appreciate that you took the time to talk to them in person. And they’ll probably remember your name on the ballot(选票)!
4._____________________________________________
When you make your campaign posters, use a catchy slogan that helps other students remember your name. It can help you win votes. If you have trouble coming up with a catchy slogan, try searching the Internet. Don’t depend solely on posters. Your fellow students have to know why you’re running, and that’s why your speech and networking are so important.
5._______________________________________________
If you keep these things in mind, you can win your election. Just remember that you have to be prepared to work hard to help your fellow students improve your school.
Have you ever dreamed of visiting a planet in the Milk Way? While the trip sounds exciting, it would take years and years to reach your destination. So in the future, bedtime for astronauts may be more than a few hours of regular shut-eye. They would have to sleep for years.
European researchers are now conducting hibernation experiments. The study may help them understand whether humans could ever sleep through the years it would take for a space flight to distant planets. "If there was an effective technology, it could make deep-space travel a reality," said Mark Ayre of the European Space Agency last month.
What seems like science fiction is not completely unlikely. Researchers have been able to use chemicals to put living cells into a sleep-like state where they don't age. They have now moved on to small, non-hibernating mammals like rats. The results will be out by the end of 2004.
A major challenge is the fact that cells can be very simple systems, whereas body organs are far more complex.
"It's like moving from a simple Apple computer to a supercomputer," said Marco Biggiogera, a hibernation researcher at Italy's University of Pavia.
Just like bears and frogs, the hibernation of human beings would cause a person's metabolism (新陈代谢) to lower so they would need less energy.
Medical research, however, is just half of a space flight hibernation system.
There is the challenge of designing a suitable protective shelter. Such a shelter would provide the proper environment for hibernation, such as the proper temperature. It would also have to monitor (监控) life functions and serve the physiological needs of the hibernator.
According to Ayre, the six-person Human Outer Planets Exploration Mission to Jupiter's moon (木星的卫星) Callisto, could be an opportunity to use human hibernation. The mission aims to send six humans on a five-year flight to Callisto, where they will spend 30 days, in 2045.
1.European researchers are conducting hibernation experiments to ________.
A. ensure astronauts to get a complete sleep
B. find the secret of some creatures
C. make preparations for the journey to Jupiter’s moon Callisto
D. know if man can sleep for years
2.The sentence “What seems like science fiction is not completely unlikely” means ______.
A. Science fiction is people’s imagination.
B. Science fiction is imaginative, but it can be realized.
C. Things seem impossible may come true.
D. Things described in science fiction are sure to become true.
3.The passage implies that ________.
A. putting living cells into a sleep-like state is full of failure
B. Biggiogera is confident with the experiment
C. human’s hibernation needs no energy
D. medical research is the key to space flight hibernation system
4.What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Six humans to fly to Callisto
B. Human hibernation improves health
C. Space travel attracts people
D. Deep sleep for deep space travel

It is not unusual to see your desk-mate yawn (打呵欠) as he complains that he didn't have a good sleep the night before. Many teens don't get enough sleep because they have too much homework, which keeps them up at night. Some teens cannot sleep at night even when they want to.
Studies show that during your teenage years, the body's biological clock is reset, telling you to sleep later at night and wake up later in the morning.
But changes in the body clock aren't the only reason teens lose sleep. Lots of people have insomnia (失眠). The most common cause of insomnia is stress. But all sorts of things can lead to insomnia. These include physical discomfort, emotional troubles and even sleeping environment. It's common for everyone to have insomnia from time to time. But if it lasts for a month or more go and see a doctor.
Some people have a condition that causes stomach acid (酸) to move backward towards the chest. This produces the uncomfortable, burning feeling called heartburn. So even if the person doesn't notice the feelings of heartburn because he is sleeping, he may feel tired the next day.
Most teens have nightmares sometimes. But, if they are frequent, a person's sleep pattern can be seriously affected. The most common cause of nightmares is emotional problems, such as stress (压力) or anxiety. If you have them a lot, it's a good idea to talk to a doctor.
Doctors encourage teens to make lifestyle changes to develop good sleeping habits. You probably know that coffee can keep you awake, but did you know that playing video games or watching TV does the same?
