When I was eight years old, my mother told me to put my coat on because we were going to go somewhere_______. Usually, that meant we were going to see someone important. I would at least get a new toy. I asked which one it would be that day, and she told me that I would get something _________than a toy. She said I would get “access(通道)to a world of toys.”I had no real idea what she meant. Did that mean we were buying a toy _______?
But we did not end up at any toy store. Neither did we finally see anyone we knew.
_______, mother pulled her car into a parking lot in front of a building that looked like something out of the past. It didn’t have a modern_________at all.
We took stone steps up to the entrance. Only then I found out what this place was, because there was a sign that _______“Marcy Public Library”. We pushed the door open, and my mother led me to the front desk. “I’d like to get my daughter a library card”, she told the man_________the desk. He asked her to fill out a form. “What kind of books do you like to read?” he asked. I was too shy to _________. I only smiled. “Well, you’ll find it out in time,” he said. I do not remember_________I picked out that day, but I know that in the years that followed I read through books on history, books of poetry, and books about art. The library opened up a world that I __________knew that day.
So my mother was right. Getting a library card was like getting the access to a world of toys.

Sitting in front of the television may be relaxing,but spending too much time in front of it may take years off your life.Watching television less may help you live a much longer life.
Australian researchers studied more than 11,000 people over the age of 25.Their study showed that if people watched TV for six hours a day,they lived about 4.8 years less than those who didn't watch any television.Also,people who are over the age of 25 lose 22 minutes of life for every hour of TV that they watch.
Sitting in front of the television isn't healthy.The more TV you watch,the less exercise you'll get.And the less exercise you get,the more likely it is that you'll get sick.
Lennert Veerman,the researcher who led the study,says watching too much TV will be bad for people's life expectancies(預(yù)期壽命),even for people who have a good diet.He thinks it's necessary for doctors to start asking their patients about how much TV they watch,as it can be an indicator(指標(biāo))of someone's overall health.
Therefore,Veerman has called on people to turn off their TVs and get off the sofa to get some exercise.“Exercise is good,” he said.“Even light activity is good for health.”
1.Australian researchers did a study on ______.
A.how much time people spend watching TV
B.what people usually do to relax after work
C.how watching too much TV can have a bad influence(影響)on people
D.what people should do to lengthen(延長)their lives
2.According to the study,if a 35?year?old man watches TV for two hours,he will lose ______ of life.
A.6 hours B.4.8 years C.22 minutes D.44 minutes
3.Paragraph 3 mainly tells us ______.
A.how watching TV can affect people's diets B.why watching TV can be bad for our health
C.why people don't exercise enough D.how long people should exercise every day

Many of us have had this experience: we lie down in a bed other than our own, perhaps at a friend’s house or in a hotel room, and find it difficult to fall asleep. Is it because the bed is uncomfortable? Maybe, but perhaps there can be other reasons.
According to a new study published in Current Biology, a significant reason is what the scientists call “first night effect”. They believe that one side of the brain acts as a “night watch” to warn us about potential (潛在的) dangers. It forces us to stay awake on the first night in a new environment.
For the study, 35 young volunteers were told to sleep in a lab for several days. Meanwhile, researchers watched their brain activities.
According to the researchers, on their first night, the left brains were more active than the right brains and people had a hard time sleeping. However, left-brain activity reduced as days went by, falling even to the point of complete calm. In this process, the volunteers got an increasingly better sleep experience.
The findings suggest that the different rhythms (節(jié)奏) of the sides of the brain influence our sleep. When the two sides work differently, the balance between them is broken. Thus, the brain can’t relax and is sensitive to anything strange in the surroundings, just as it is in the daytime.
“At some level, the brain is continuing to analyze(分析) things, even though you don’t realize the analysis,” US professor Jerome Siegel told Smithsonian Magazine. “If something unusual happens – if a door opens or you hear a key in a lock – you can be alert (警惕的).”
More surprisingly, this situation is similar to the way some animals sleep. Whales, dolphins, and many birds can sleep with half of their brain while the other half stays awake.
If you have ever had what you think is “first night effect”, researchers suggest that you bring your own pillow or sleep in a room similar to your bedroom next time you sleep away from home.
