14、Night Milk and Sleep
A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off — if it is milked from a cow at night.
Researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin(褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.
The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night. Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food. Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.
While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.
Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax.
Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night.
1．What does the phrase ‘nod off’ in the first paragraph mean? A．Try to keep awake. B．Try to sleep a longer time.
C．Change from being awake to a sleeping state. D．Change from a sleeping state to being awake.
2．According to the text, the mice being fed with night time milk _________. A．woke up later B．were more anxious C．were less active D．could not sleep well
3．Why do lots of people think milk is excellent for helping sleep? A．Because many people like drinking milk. B．Because it’s been tested on mice ten times. C．Because it can make people more energetic.
D．Because it contains calcium, which helps people to relax.

15、 Spring is here. Did you plant trees on Tree-Planting Day? Everyone knows that climate change is a serious problem these days. People have a lot of work to do in order to prevent it. One of the best ways is to plant more trees.
According to a study by NASA, the Earth’s green leaf area has increased by 5 percent, or over 5 million square kilometers since 2000. China is responsible for 25 percent of the increase. That’s about one square of the size of the whole Amazon rainforest.
Over the past twenty years, China has made great efforts to green the land in order to fight soil erosion (水土流失) and air pollution. It is one of the most successful countries in greening the desert.
For example since 1962, China had been planting trees in Saihanba in Hebei province. It was once a barren(贫瘠) area. After overcoming many difficulties, foresters have turned the area into China’s largest man-made forest. Another example is the Kubuqi Desert, which is near the Yellow River in Inner Mongolia. It was once the source(来源) of sandstorms in Beijing. But now, about one third of the Kubuqi Desert is covered with trees, and sandstorms are less common. Mu Us Desert was also known for its sandstorms many years ago. But now, one-quarter of the desert has been turned into forest.
In a word, planting trees is really important to us. Let’s take part in planting trees to make our earth greener and more beautiful.
1．The reason why China makes great efforts to green the land is to _____ A．prevent climate change C．reduce water pollution
B．plant more trees
D．stop the soil from being washed away
2．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．China succeeds in greening the desert
B．Planting tree is the best way to prevent the climate change
C．The green leaf area of China has increased by 0.25 million square kilometers since 2000. D．Mu Us Desert cause the sandstorms in Beijing
3．It is _______ for foresters to turn Saihanba into the forest A．dangerous
B．exciting
C．difficult
D
