morningi, you were feeling so bright-eyed that you only had one cup of coffee,instead of your usual two.But don’t be cheated by your energy.You’re still carrying around a heavy load of sleepiness, or what experts call―sleep debt‖——in this case something like six hours,almost a full nights’ sleep.
Sleep debt is the difference between the amount of sleep you should be getting and the amount you actually get.It’s a deficit(缺乏)that grows every time we skim some extra minutes off our nightly sleep.―People accumulate sleep debt gradually without being noticed,‖says William C.Dement,founder of the Stanford University Sleep Clinic.Studies show that such short—term sleep deprivation leads to a foggy brain,worsened vision,and trouble remembering. Long-term effects include obesity,insulin(胰岛素)resistance, and heart disease.A survey by the National Sleep Foundation reports that we’re losing one hour of sleep each night一一more than two full weeks of sleep every year.
The good news is that,like all debt, with some work,sleep debt can be repaid. Adding an extra hour or two of sleep a night is the way to catch up.For the long—term lack of sleep,take it easy for a few months to get back into a natural sleep pattern.
Go to bed when you are tired,and allow your body to wake you in the morning(no alarm clock allowed).You may find yourself catatonic(有紧张症的)in the beginning of the recovery cycle:expect to have ten hours shut-eye per night. As the days pass, however,the amount of sleeping time will gradually decrease.
So earn back that lost sleep——and follow the dictates of your innate(固有的)sleep needs. You’ll feel better.―When you put away sleep debt,you become a superman,‖says Stanford’s Dement,talking about the improved mental and physical capabilities that come with being well rested.
51.If you have short—term sleep deprivation, ____________. A.you can think and remember things clearly B.you can still see everything very clearly C.you can drive your car easily D.you may have a poor sight
52.The example of sleep math is used to show____________ A.in what case you build up a sleep debt B.why you need six hours’ sleep every night
C.why you are full of energy even when you don’t haye enoug sleep
D.you should drink coffee to keep energetic when you don’t have enough sleep 53.The author begins Paragraph 3 with ____________. A.an order B.a story C.a definition D.an example
54.By saying the undedined sentence in the last paragraph,Dement means ____________ A.a superman always needs a lot of sleep
B.you will be in a good state with enough sleep
C.you can become superman after you repay your debt
D.You will become superman if you don’t make up for sleep debt 55.What might be the most suitable title for the passage? A.Can you catch up on lost sleep? B.How can you keep energetic? C.Can you have a good sleep? D.What is sleep debt?

The International Coast Clean-up is an organization that is set up to help the environment in the worid,especially the areas near the waters.Recently,more than a half-million vulunteers are taking part in an international movement to comb the world’s shorelines for cigarette butts, bottle caps and any other rubbish they can find.
The Intematiohal Coast Clean-up is in its 14th volunteers ready to collect more than 10 million pieces of rubbish along 19,308 kilometers of shoreline in 70 countries.
Sponsored(赞助)by the Centre for Marine Conservation and several other non—profit(非盈利的) groups and corporate sponsors, the activity is a one-day attempt to improve conditions on important waterfronts.
Cigarette butts are by far the most common item, with exactly 1.6 million picked up and counted in the last year’s clean-up.They were followed in numbers by food wrappers,plastic pieces,bottle caps and broken pieces of glass.The global event is held on the third Saturday of September. Last year,the biggest volunteer army was in the Philippines,where nearly 300,000 people took part in the clean-up.With more than 7,000 islands,the Philippines is among the countries which have the largest shorelines.
―Around every main body of water,we have a rubbish problem,‖said Sheavly,director of the Center for rubbish problem.Bad weather with some hurricane affected some plans,but thousands of volunteers were ready to go,she said.
About 20,000 divers are joining to clean up offshore rubbish,with major underwater efforts in the United States,the Philippines,Germany,Italy,Australia,Venezuela and EI Salvador. Globally, less than 20 percent of shore rubbish clearly comes from the water. The most appears to come from land sourees.
Part of the effort is counting the rubbish.Volunteers carry cards to recond their collections,which will be piled and used for studies of how to settle the problem year-round. 56.What is the International Coast Clean-up set up for? (Within 20 words)

A possible version:
According to a recent survey,about 25 percent of college students have a part-time job.During summer vacation,this figure will increase to 72 percent.College students are working as tutors,waiters or salesmen.
Why do they want part-time jobs? First,they want to earn money to help cover theincreasingly higher college tuition. Second,they hope to be economically independent and buy whatever they want.
In my opinion,by doing part-time jobs,college students can gain some society experience and broaden their outlook.What’s more,part-time jobs can provide them with a valuable chance/opportunity to know the outside world.So it’s of great significance for college students to do part-time jobs.
