“Ok, Dad. I will eat — not just a few mouthfuls, the whole lot of this. But…” Sindu hesitated. “Dad, if I eat this entire rice, will you give me I ask for?”

Baekeland and Hartmann report that the “short sleepers” had been more or less average in their sleep needs until the men were in their teens. But at about age 15 or so, the men voluntarily began cutting down their nightly sleep time because of pressures from school, work, and other activities. These men tended to view their nightly periods of unconsciousness as bothersome interruptions in their daily routines.
In general, these “short sleeps” appeared ambitious, active, energetic, cheerful, conformist(不动摇) in their opinions, and very sure about their career choices. They often held several jobs at once, or workers full-or part-time while going to school. And many of them had a strong urge to appear “normal” or “acceptable” to their friends and associates.
When asked to recall their dreams, the “short sleepers” did poorly. More than this, they seemed to prefer not remembering. In similar fashion, their usual way of dealing with psychological problems was to deny that the problem existed, and then to keep busy in the hope that the trouble would go away.
The sleep patterns of the “short sleepers” were similar to, but less extreme than, sleep patterns shown by many mental patients categorized as manic(疯人).
The “long sleepers” were quite different indeed. Baekeland and Hartmann report that these young men had been lengthy sleeps since childhood. They seemed to enjoy their sleep, protected it, and were quite concerned when they were occasionally robbed of their desired 9 hours of nightly bed rest. They tended to recall their dreams much better than did the “short sleepers.”
Many of the “long sleepers” were shy, anxious, introverted (内向), inhibited (压抑), passive, mildly depressed, and unsure of themselves (particularly in social situations). Several openly states that sleep was an escape from their daily problems.

A. sleep is a withdrawal from the reality
B. sleep interferes with their sound judgment
C. sleep is the least expensive item on their routine program

3.It is stated in the third paragraph that short sleepers _____.
A. are ideally vigorous even under the pressures of life

The cartoon is jokingly updating Shylock, a leading figure from William Shakespeare’s classic play The Merchant of Venice, to fit into the new age of the Internet. In the play, the Christian merchant Antonio has borrowed money from Shylock ,who is Jewish. Because of their religion Jews like Shylock have been regarded as low and worthless and badly mistreated by the noble-styled gentleman Antonio and his friends, who at that time contained the very Christian society of Venice and indeed all Europe .On account of the conflict between members of the two religions, despite their being willing to enter into business deals, there is little love or friendship between the two.
Shylock agrees to lend Antonio the money but as part of the written agreement he insist that should Antonio fail to repay him on time he must cut a pound of his own flesh from his body and present it to Shylock. This of course would kill him but nonetheless Antonio agrees. In the end, Antonio’s business fails as the ships carrying his goods sink (Antonio is truly a gentlemen but not much of a businessman),and Antonio has to be forced to threateningly face Shylock and his demands.
In the cartoon, Shylock is a merchant who operates, as many businessmen do today, on the Internet. His website, www.poundoffflesh, com. is probably where Antonio would log on to get terms of his loan. The humor lies in the contrast between the very modern business technology and the very old-fashioned costume Shylock is wearing.
1.We may learn from the text that the writer of the article is for the purpose of ____.
A. grandly advertising the new cartoon to the audience
B. warning us not to borrow money from the merchants like Shylock
C. simply introducing a new cartoon on the net to the public
D. telling readers to be sincere and honest when you deal with your friends
2.The underlined word “contain” probably means ____.
A. control B. cover C .include D. create
3.You will find it very funny when you see the cartoon that ____.
A. large amounts of money go into Shylock’s cashbox
B. Antonio doesn’t suffer from his flesh being cut off his body
C. many famous actors and actress are invited to perform the updated classic play
D. all the characters in the cartoon are not in today’s clothes though they do nowaday business
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A. The E-merchant of Venice
B. Business between Shylock and Antonio
C. Never Borrow Money from Shylock
D. Sow the Wind and Reap(gain) the Whirlwind
