There is an endless supply of stories about sleepwalkers (梦游者). People have been said to climb on roofs, solve mathematical problems, write music, walk through windows, and do murder in their sleep. In Revere, Massachusetts, a hundred policemen searched for a lost boy who left his home in his sleep and woke up five hours later on a strange sofa in a strange living room, with no idea how he had got there. At the University of Lowa, a student was reported to have the habit of getting up in the middle of the night and walking three-quarters of a mile to the Lowa River. He would take a swim and then go back to his room to bed. An American expert on sleep claims (声称) that he has never seen a sleepwalker. He is said to know more
about sleep than any other living man, and during the last thirty-five years he has lost a lot of sleep watching people sleep. He says, “Of course, I know that there are sleepwalkers because I have read about them in the newspapers. But none of my sleepers ever walked, and if I were to advertise for sleepwalkers for an experiment, I doubt whether I would get many takers (应征者).” Sleepwalking, however, is a scientific reality. It is one of those strange things that sometimes look quite fantastic (怪诞的). Doctors say that sleepwalking is much more common than is generally supposed. Many sleepwalkers do not try to find help and their sleepwalking is never recorded. 61. Generally speaking, sleepwalkers are people who ________.
A. climb on roofs B. walk through windows C. do fantastic things during their sleep D. walk in a half-awake state 62. It was reported that a boy ________.
A. was found on a strange sofa, telling how he had got there B. slept in his own room but woke up in a strange room C. lost his way five hours after he left home D. was searched for by policemen when he lost his way
63. There was a college student who got into the habit of ________.
A. getting up in the middle of the night and walking down to the river B. walking three-quarters of a mile every day C. swimming in the Lowa River before going to bed D. walking about before he went to bed
64. Why do people think sleepwalking is nothing but a fantastic thing which doesn’t have any explanation? A. It is so common that it needn’t be recorded. B. Scientists take no interest in it. C. Most sleepwalkers do not seek help for their problem. D. No records about it have been made.

In Britain today, is it possible to tell a person’s class just by looking at him? Physical details alone tell us about health, diet and the type of work a person does. A hundred years ago the working class often looked unhealthy, small and they were either too thin or too fat. The upper classes were often tall, sporting types who were used to a good diet and looked healthy. Today living and working conditions have improved, and such descriptions are no longer true. People are taller now than a hundred years ago. Everyone in Britain today is able to have free medicine, a good diet, acceptable working conditions and enough rest and leisure. The clothes people choose to wear, however, do provide information about their backgrounds. Expensive clothes look expensive and show their wearer is rich. Clothes can provide other clues as well. The upper classes appear to be less interested in fashion and wear good quality clothes in non-bright colours, made of natural material like wool, leather and cotton. Lower working-class people often choose clothes in bright colours, made of man-made materials. A sociological explanation for this would be that colour and interest are missing from their lives, and therefore any opportunity to produce this is taken. Clothes are available at a price within most people’s reach. New clothes make the wearer feel good and show some degree of wealth to the outside world. Today it is the younger people who spend most money on clothes. Fashion is no longer for the upper classes and the rich. Young people from all social classes spend a lot of money on clothes. Some new fashions are started by working-class people who want to look different and feel important. They want people to look at them.
65. In the past, a person’s appearance could not tell other people about his ________. A. health B. diet C. occupation (职业) D. habits
