7.Sam Martin,24,from Belfast
    I do all my shopping on Christmas Eve because I prefer to get it done quickly.I certainly don't enjoy shopping.It doesn't matter when I shop---I probably won't buy gifts that people will want anyway.I just look at what's for sale and choose from whatever is there.I am never disappointed because I never have any idea what to buy anyone before I get to the shop,and I don't care about getting it at the best price.
Lucy Collins,34,from Liverpool
I've always finished all my shopping by the middle of August.I buy when things are cheap and when I can afford to.I also enjoy trying to buy as many gifts as possible at less than the full price.This year,I've spent£230 and saved£695 on the prices.
I think Christmas is a magical time so I like looking for gifts throughout the year.I also like knowing I've bought presents that people will enjoy,rather than picking through whatever is left in the shops on Christmas Eve.
Frankie Bircham,31,from Hertfordshire
I've always finished shopping by the end of September.I like the satisfaction of giving people presents they want---I don't like"Oh,that'll do".I prefer to buy online so I can compare prices to make sure I'm getting the best possible deal.It's cheaper than travelling into London to go shopping and I can easily return anything I don't like when it arrives.
Andi Euridge,40,from London
     I start my shopping in January and have always finished it by November.I don't like online shopping because then you have the craziness of parcels not arriving in time.
     I live on a tight budget(预算) and I cannot afford to buy all my gifts with one month's pay.So I prefer picking up a present here and there throughout the year.

7.Sleepless in Seattle?Hardly.West Virginia is where people are really staying awake,according to the first government study to monitor state-by-state differences in sleeplessness.West Virginians'lack of sleep was about double the national rate,perhaps a side effect of health problems such as obesity(肥胖),experts said.
Nearly 1 in 5 West Virginians said they did not get a single good night's sleep in the previous month.The national average was about 1 in 10,according to a federal health survey.Tennessee,Kentucky and Oklahoma also were notably above average with nearly 1 in 7 people reporting in a lack of sleep.In contrast,North Dakota was below average,with only 1 in 13 reporting that degree of sleeplessness.Health officials do not know the exact reasons for the differences.
In the survey,people weren't required to answer the question why they were not able to get enough rest or sleep.But experts noted several possible explanations:West Virginia ranks at or near the bottom of the nation in several important measurements of health,including obesity,smoking,heart disease and the proportion of adults with disabilities.
Studies have increasingly found that sleeping problems often occurred among people with certain health problems,including obesity."You would expect to see poorer sleep within a chronically (慢性地) diseased population,"noted Dr Ronald Chervin,a sleep disorders expert in University of Michigan.
Financial stress and work shifts(倒班)can play roles in sleeplessness,too,Chervin added.He suggested those may be contributing factors in West Virginia,an economically depressed state with tens of thousands of people working in coal mining.
The report was based on results of an annual telephone survey of more than 400,000 Americans,including at least 3,900 in each state.The survey did not include people who use only cellphones.

3.What was the possible reason for the high rate of sleeplessness in West Virginia according to Paragraph 3?(No more than 12 words.)West Virginia had a low level of several important measurements of health.

(No more than 8 words.)
①being too fat②financial stress③work shifts.
