　　As you are receiving my note by e-mail, it’s wise to remember how easily this wonderful technology can be misused, sometimes unintentionally, with serious consequences.

　　Consider the case of the Illinois man who left the snow-filled streets of Chicago for a vacation in Florida. His wife was on a business trip and was planning to meet him there the next day. When he reached his hotel, he decided to send his wife a quick e-mail. Unable to find the scrap of paper on which he had written her e-mail address, he did his best to type it in from memory. Unfortunately, he missed one letter and his note was directed instead to an elderly preacher’s wife whose husband had passed away only the day before. When the grieving widow checked her e-mail, she took one look at the monitor(屏幕), let out a piercing scream, and fell to the floor in a dead faint. At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this note on the screen:

　　DEAREST WIFE: JUST GOT CHECKED IN. EVERYTHING PREPARED FOR YOUR ARRIVAL TOMORROW.

　　P. S SURE IS HOT DOWN HERE.

　　Years ago a John Hopkin’s professor gave a group of graduate students this task: Go to the slums（平民窟）. 　31 200 boys, between the ages of 12 and 16, and 　32 their background and environment. Then predict their 　33 for the future.
　　The students, after 　34 social statistics, talking to the boys, and collecting much data, 　35　that 90 percent of the boy would spend some time in 　36 .
　　Twenty-five years later another group of graduate students was 　37 the job of testing the 　38 . They went back to the same area. Some of the boys— 39 men—were still there，a few had died，some had moved away， 40 they got in touch with 180 of the 　41 200. They found that only four of the group had ever been sent to prison.
　　　42 was it that these men，who had lived in a breeding place of crime，had such a 43 good record？ The researchers were continually told，“Well，there was a teacher…”
　　They pressed 　44 ，and found that in 75 percent of the 　45 it was the same woman. The researchers went to this teacher，now living in a home for retired 　46 . How had she had this remarkable influence 　47 that group of children？ Could she give them any reason why these boys 　48 have remembered her？
　　“No，”she said.“No I really couldn’t.”And then, 　49 back over the years，she said musingly，more to herself than to her 　50 ，“I loved those boys…”

According to body language expert Robert Phipps，the way people sleep at night actually determines a lot about the type of personality they have.Phipps has identified four sleeping positions that affect personality.

Phipps found that worriers，those who stress the most，tend to sleep in the fetal(胎兒的)position.He found that this is the most common bedtime position，with nearly 58 percent of people sleeping on their side with knees up and head down.The more we curl up(蜷曲)，the more comfort we are seeking，according to Phipps.

The second most common position is the log.Sleeping with a straight body，with arms at each side，as if they are standing guard at Buckingham Palace，indicates stubbornness，and these people(the 28 percent who sleep this way)often wake up stiffer than when they went to sleep.

“The longer you sleep like this，the more rigid your thinking is and you can become inflexible，which means you make things harder for yourself，”according to Phipps.

Yearner(向往型)sleepers are next on the list.About 25 percent of people sleep in this style—on their side with arms stretched out in front，looking as if they are either chasing a dream or perhaps being chased themselves.Yearners are typically their own worst critics，always expecting the best results，explained Phipps.These people often wake up refreshed and eager to face the challenges of the day ahead.

Perhaps the most peculiar(奇怪的)of sleep styles is the freefaller position.This sleep style makes up 17 percent of the population.They sleep face down with arms stretched out.These people，according to Phipps，feel like they have little control over their life.Not only is this the strangest of sleep styles，but also the least comfortable，and people may wake up feeling tired and have no energy.

In conclusion，Phipps has only one more thing to add：“A good night's sleep sets you up for the following day and our sleeping positions can determine how we feel when we wake.”

1.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

A．A Good Night's Sleep Sets You Up for the Following Day

B．Your Personality Depends a Lot on How You Sleep at Night

C．How You Sleep at Night Affects What You Do the Next Day

D．Which Sleeping Position Helps You Sleep Comfortably

2.Which of the following pictures is the fetal position?

3.The underlined word“rigid”is closest in meaning to “________”．

A．stubborn? ????????????? ????????????? B．flexible

C．comfortable? ????????????? ????????????? D．strange

4.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?

CP：Central 　P：Point　Sp：Sub?point

C：Conclusion
