2.We spend a quarter of our lives asleep.Sleep is necessary for the body to rest,yet our brains continue to process information.Studies have shown that students are more successful when they sleep after studying-instead of pulling all-nighters-because the brain reviews information learned.Similarly,dreaming is an opportunity to work out emotional problems and form thoughts and memories.About 25 percent of the time spent sleeping is spent in rapid eye movement,or REM,sleep.This type of sleep is known for when dreams occur,but it also helps energize the brain and body.
Researchers have found two important factors regarding humans and sleep:basicsleep need and sleep debt.Basic sleep need is the amount of sleep we need to have regularly to perform at our best.Sleep debt is the loss of sleep.A few studies say that most adults function best with a basic sleep need of seven to eight hours a night.The problem is that sleep debt also factors in,just because that you meet your basic sleep needs a few nights of the week doesn't mean it cancels out the eff6ects of one night's sleep debt.
Of course,everyone is different and some people require more or less sleep than the standard basic sleep need.But the real problem lies in what lack of sleep does over the long period to people who either does not meet his or her body's needs or for one reason or another doesn't get enough regular sleep.It is more possible for these people to have motor vehicle accidents,weight gain and risk for heart disease or diabetes (糖尿病) and may be at increased risk for psychological conditions such as depression or drug abuse.Sleeping too long also can be associated with depression and poor health.

Brains as food was invented more than 300 years ago by Fu Shan,an artist whose mother had been ill for a long time.To help her become well again,he studied medicine and invented a kind of soup made of meat,vegetables and a number of Chinese medicines.
Rice wine (酒) was also used in the soup to help treat illnesses caused by old age.After taking the soup his mother got better little by little and lived a long life.
Fu's soup became the talk of the town.Many people came to see him.One day a restaurant owner asked him what was in the soup."I'll tell you,"Fu said."But if your restaurant is going to sell the soup,you must call it brains because of its shape and colour.And your restaurant should be renamed after my mother."

11.In 1996,John Tierney suggested in a New York Times Magazine article that"recycling is garbage."He wrote,"The money spent on recycling programs should have been spent on real social and environmental problems.Recycling programs not only increase energy use and pollution,but also cost more money than the disposal (处理) of plain old garbage.Recycling may be the most wasteful activity in modern America."
    Environmental groups were quick to express their disagreement.They wrote reports on how recycling programs in cities can reduce pollution and cost less than regular garbage pickup and disposal.Michael Shapiro,an official of the US Environmental Protection Agency(EPA),said that"recycling can be good value for money,although there's still room for improvements."
    But in 2002,New York City,a pioneer of recycling,found that its recycling program was losing money,so it stopped glass and plastic recycling.Other major cities watched closely to see how New York was doing with its remaining program (the city never stopped paper recycling).But then it closed its last landfill (垃圾填埋地),and private companies out of New York raised prices due to the increased workload of carrying away and disposing New York's garbage.As a result,glass and plastic recycling became profitabl e for the city again,and New York brought the program back.According to Cecil Adams of The Chicago Reader,the lessons learned by New York are relevant everywhere.He believes that,if managed correctly,recycling programs should cost cities less than garbage disposal.
Even though the benefits of recycling over disposal are many,keep in mind that it better serves the environment to"reduce and reuse"before recycling is even considered as a choice.
