18.An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old highly educated son.
Suddenly a crow(乌鸦)perched on the tree near their window.
The father asked his son,"What is this?"
The son replied,"It is a crow."
After a few minutes,the father asked his son the 2nd time,"What is this?"
The son said,"Father,I have just now told you‘It's a crow'."
After a little while,the old father again asked his son the 3rd time,"What is this?"
"It's a crow,a crow,a crow."said the son loudly.
A little after,the father again asked his son the 4th time,"What is this?"
This time the son shouted at his father,"Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again?‘IT IS A CROW'.Are you not able to understand this?"
A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old diary,which he had kept since his son was born.On opening a page,he asked his son to read that page.When the son read it,the following words were written in the diary:
"Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa,when a crow was sitting on the window.My son asked me 23times what it was,and I replied to him all 23times that it was a crow.I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question again and again for 23times.I did not at all feel annoyed; I rather felt affection for my innocent child."

16.Some people can stay up all night and still get work done the next day.I'm not one of them.After a night without enough sleep,I feel bad-tempered.I have trouble remembering things.And all I want to do is to crawl into bed and sleep.
How do you feel after you've stayed up late to finish schoolwork?Or the day after an overnight party?Scientists now say that your answers to these questions may depend on your genes.
New research suggests that a gene called"period 3"affects how well you function without sleep.The"period 3"gene comes in two forms:short and long.Everyone has two copies of the gene.So,you may have two longs,two shorts,or one of each.Your particular combination depends on what your parents passed on to you.
Scientists from the University of Surrey in England studied 24people who had either two short or two long copies of"period 3".Study participants had to stay awake 40hours straight.Then,they took tests that measured how quickly they pushed a button when numbers flashed on screen and how well they could remember lists of numbers.
Results showed that the people with the short form of"period 3"performed much better on these tests than the people with the long form did.In both groups,people performed worst in the early morning.
After the first round of experiments,participants were finally allowed to sleep.People in the group that performed well on the tests (those with the short form of"period 3") took about 18minutes to nod off.
People with the long"period 3"gene,by contrast,fell asleep in just 8minutes.They also spent more time on deep sleep.That suggests that people with the long form of the gene need more and deeper sleep to keep their brains working in top form.
I think I must have the long form of"period 3".What about you?

28.The purpose of this passage might beB.
A.to tell us the importance of plenty of sleep
B.to tell the result of a research on sleepy gene
C.to inform the harm of lacking sleep
D.to announce the sleeping rules of humans
29.Which of the following decides how well you perform without sleep?D
A.One short form.
B.One long copy.
C.One short and two long copies.
D.Period 3.
30.What kind of people need less sleep according to the research?B
A.Those with two long copies of the gene.
B.Those with two short copies of the gene.
C.Those with one short and one long copy of the gene.
D.Those with three short copies of the gene.
31.If one lacks enough sleep,one should avoid doing important or dangerous thingsA.
A.in the early morning         B.at night
C.in the afternoon             D.at noon.
