27、ast for three hours on May 14th.C15、 March 16 is International Sleep Day. And we should all celebrate the act of sleeping. Researchers say sleep is probably the best tool we have for memory and learning. But what about getting rest during the middle of the day? A recent study on napping(小睡) says sho

28、rt periods of sleep may help our brains work better. Past studies have shown that napping can help babies and young children learn better. And napping can help brain performance in older adults. Taking a nap may also help this group of people fight off memory loss because of the increase in their ag

29、e.Many Americans do nap. But one-third of all adults in the United States are also chronically(長期的) tired, says the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It found that 50 million to 70 million Americans have chronic sleep disorders. However, they seem to be unwilling to tell people

30、that they take a nap. They may think that napping shows they are weak or they dont have enough energy. It is not an uncommon opinion that only children, the very old, sick or lazy people nap. In fact, Americans sometimes do a very strange thing. Some people brag about how few hours of sleep they nee

31、d each night to show that they are somehow stronger than the average humansuperhuman, if you will. However, that may be changing. Many offices now offer napping rooms and napping cafes(咖啡館) are appearing in many U.S. cities, including Washington, DCRemember that an hour long nap may be too long for

32、young, healthy adults. It is recommended that 30 minutes is enough to remove the pressure(壓力) to sleep and will help people feel more awake. If people nap longer, they will get trapped into deep sleep, which can be hard to get out of. If you have trouble falling asleep at night, limit your daytime n

33、ap to under 45 minutes. Also nap before 3 p.m.1Who are this group of people in Paragraph 2?AThe babies.BThe children.CThe older adults.DThe young people.2The underlined word brag in Paragraph 3 means _.Achat sadlyBtalk proudlyCwhisper secretlyDspeak politely3What may Americans think of napping in th

34、e future?AHealthy adults neednt take a nap.BThey wont tell others about their nap.CIt may be common for Americans to take a nap.DOnly the old, the sick and children need a nap.4For a young man with sleep problems, it is good to _.Atake a 40-minute-long noon napBtake a nap whenever he feels sleepyCta

35、ke an one-hour-long nap after dinnerDtake a 30-minute-long nap in the eveningD16、 Located in the east of Shenzhen, Dapeng New Area was once a coral paradise. However, coral coverage has dropped dramatically over the past 30 years. In November 2013, a group of divers launched a charity event called “

36、Dive for Love” in Dapeng New Area. Sharing a common interest, these like-minded people would dive into the sea to plant corals and share their love for ocean life. I am one of them. For years, I have not only been engaged in coral reef conservative, but also give regular lectures at primary and seco

37、ndary schools to popularize ocean knowledge and teach students how to protect the ocean. We believe these lectures can help spread the love for ocean life. In addition to planting coral and breeding broken coral branches, I dive with my friends to take rubbish out of the sea every month. Fishing net

38、s are the most troublesome. I once got entangled in a fishing net while bringing it up, and it almost killed me. We usually clean the sea once a month, and the coral nursery is cleaned every 10 days. Apart from the undersea rubbish, there is also rubbish on the beaches. We can gather a lot of rubbis

39、h, such as straws, bottles, nappies, disposable lunch boxes and so on. Its all rubbish from our daily life. I wonder how they bear to litter on such beautiful beaches. We dont ask that everyone takes away other peoples rubbish, but we hope they will take away their own rubbish. As a mother myself, I

40、 often take my child to the seaside and tell him the story of the “submarine forest”. I can see that my child has a special passion for nature from an early age, so I hope to give him a beautiful and clean ocean environment, so that he can enjoy the beauty of nature. I feel sad when I consider wheth

41、er my son will ever see these beautiful scenes when he grows up, which is another factor that motivates me to protect the ocean environment.1The author did the following things under the sea EXCEPT .Ataking rubbish out of the seaBplanting corals with other diversCpopularizing ocean knowledgeDbreedin

51、portance ofScience, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) related classes in primary,middle and high school education in the U S. The reason for this direction is well founded:research and test scores from the 1980s and 1990s showed that our students had fallen behindtheir international pee

52、rs in all of these subject areas. Education officials, teachers andparents all felt that the situation needed to be changed, and quickly. However, in the rushto play catchup in STEMrelated areas, theres one important aspect that is beingneglected (忽略): the Fine and Performing Arts, particularly dram

53、a.Its long been understood that a study of drama at the primary, middle and high schoollevel helps students improve in many areas, such as selfconfidence, selfexpression,communication skills, teamwork, and imagination. Most educators and parents agree thatall of these are important for students to d

54、evelop at any age, but it is difficult for the sameparents and teachers to prioritize (優(yōu)先安排) study time and classroom time to a subject likedrama over subjects like Math, Physics or Computer Science. Its even more difficult forpolicy makers and school officials to channel funds (資金) towards classes

55、like drama,when the skills arts subjects develop are considered “soft skills.” When the modern world iscalling out for “hard” skills, like those needed to succeed in the techdriven 21st century,how can they possibly prove it is reasonable to spend their funds that are becoming smallerand smaller on

56、anything but STEM subjects?The short answer to the question “why spend time and money on drama?” is that dramaeducation has been scientifically proven to improve students achievement, especially incommunication skills that are very important to a STEM education. As we develop studentswith highly ref

57、ined skills in STEM subjects, its equally important that we train the teachersthat will support continued growth in these areas. An active, communicative teacher is thebest way to get students on board in the study of STEM subjects, which can be unbearablydry. The best way to develop active communic

58、ation skills? Drama. The next area in whichthe communication skills can be developed is publication and conference presentation.Drama improves students public speaking skills necessary for STEM students to effectivelypresent papers in conferences and their writing skills necessary to publish papers.

59、 Its alsovery important for students to be able to work well with one another. In the real STEMworld, almost all scientific work happens in teams. Without the “ soft ” people skillsnecessary to navigate (導航) all of these interactions, no matter how technologically skilledone becomes, he or she will

60、be at a disadvantage without the ability to communicate andwork in teams.While the nationwide trend (趨勢) to focus on playing catchup in STEM education isreasonable, practical, and absolutely necessary, its important not to forget the huge effectarts, specifically drama education, have on the overall
