A doctor entered the hospital hurriedly after being called in for an important surgery (外科手术)。 He found the boy’s father in the hall waiting worriedly.
On seeing him, the father cried out, “ Why did you take all this time to come? Don’t you know that my son is in danger? Don’t you have any sense of duty?”
The doctor smiled and said, “ I’m sorry. I wasn’t in the hospital and I came as fast as I could after receiving the call and now, I wish you’d calm down so that I can do my work.”
“ Calm down?! What if your son was in this room right now? Would you calm down? If your own son dies while waiting for a doctor, then what will you do?” said the father angrily. The doctor smiled again and replied, “ We will do our best and you should also pray (祈祷) for your son’s healthy life.”
The surgery took some hours after which the doctor went out happy, “ Thank goodness! Your son is saved!” And without waiting for the father’s reply he carried on his way running by saying, “ I you have any questions, ask the nurse.”
“ Couldn’t he wait some minutes so that I can ask about my son’s state?” shouted the father when seeing the nurse minutes after the doctor left.
The nurse answered, tears coming down her face, “ His son died yesterday in a road accident . He was at the burial when we called him for your son’s surgery. And now that he saved yours son’s life, he left running to finish his son’s burial. ”

Passage Two
Have you ever had trouble sleeping in a new place?
Lots of people do. And now researchers from Brown University in Phode they know why. They found that one-half of the brain “ remains more awake” than the other half when people trying to sleep in a new place.
The sleep findings were reported in Current Biology by Brown University. In their report, the researchers said many people report they have a harder time sleeping the first night at a hotel or other places outside their home. They call it “ first -night influence”, “ In Japan they say, ‘ If you change your bed, you can’t sleep.” said Yuka Sasaki , one of the report’s writers. You don’t sleep very well in a new place. We all know about it.”
The researchers measured brain waves (测量脑波) for 30 volunteers over two nights in a laboratory. The two nights were a week apart （间隔）. They found during the first night the left half of the brain was more active than the right half. This was during the first deep-sleep period, the researchers said.
Sasaki said a lot of questions remain.
Researchers did not keep measuring brain waves all night long. So they don’t know if the left half keeps “ watching ” all night, or whether it “ works in shifts (轮换) with the right half later in the night.” They also do not know why the brain activity, at least during the first period of deep sleep, is always on the left half.
From some, this research may be calming. It is good to know that our brain is “ looking out for us” in a new place. But it may not help with sleep. That brain activity, at least according to this new research, makes it harder to get the sleep people need to wake up well rested in the morning. 16. How many times did the researchers measure the brain waves for 35 volunteers?
A. Once B. Twice C. Three times D. Fourth 17. The researchers found during the first deep-sleep period.

A. The brain waves remained the same B. The brain activity helped with sleep
C. The right half of brain keep “ watch” D. The left half of the brain was more active. 18. Which of the following is one of the questions that remain?
A. Whether the new bed keeps you from sleeping. B. How you have trouble sleeping in a new place. C. Why the brain activity is always on the left half. D. What people can do when they can’t sleep well.
19. The underlined word “ calming” has the closest meaning to “ ” .
A. pleasing B. different C. serious D. strange 20. What’s the text mainly about?
A. What we will have to do to sleep well . B. How researchers measure brain waves. C. Who doesn’t sleep well in a new place . D.0 Why it’s harder to sleep in a new place.
