   Life on land probably began about 430 million years ago, though it has stayed in the water for perhaps as much as 3,000 million years. When we think of the first thing on land, we probably think of strange animals coming out of the oceans, but in fact no animals could have been living if plants had not been on land first. Plants had to be on land before animals arrived. They supplied the first land animals with the surrounding and food necessity, since then, the plants, are the only form of life that is able to get and store energy.
  The first plants to stay out of the water were probably certain kinds of algae(海藻)which were followed by other plants that grew close to the ground and needed water in which to reproduce. Once the move to land had been made, however, evolution(进化)happened quickly. By the end of 100 million years, plants had developed their roots(根), and some had got tree -like forms since height was very important in gaining sunlight. About 300 million years ago, much of the world was covered with forests of huge trees. In most ways they were like modern trees. They had roots, leaves, wood, but mostly they had not developed seeds.
59.The main idea of the first paragraph is ________.
  A. life on land probably began 430 years ago
  B. the first animal on land came from oceans
  C. there wouldn't have been animals without plants
  D. plants are the only form of life that is able to get and store energy
60.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
  A. Algae probably has stayed for more than 430 million years.
  B. It is impossible that algae might be the earliest plant on land.
  C. Plants get food from animals in the oceans.
  D. Evolution began after animals appeared on land.
61.Plants with roots appeared about ________ million years ago.
  A. 430     B. 300      C. 330      D. 100
62.According to the passage, ________ appeared earlier than ________.

I don't think there is anything wrong with your blood. The key to your problem is that long nap(打盹,小睡)after dinner. If you didn't sleep for hours during the early part of the evening, you would be more ready to sleep at bedtime. If you didn't nap after dinner, you would not want to stay up so late, and you would not feel the need to take a sleeping pill. The pill is still working in your system when you get up in the morning. This helps account for the fact that you feel tired all day. You should get out of the habit of sleeping during the evening. Right after your evening meal, engage in some sort of physical activity - a sport such as bowling, perhaps. Or get together with friends for an evening of cards and conversation. Then go to bed at your usual time or a little earlier, and you should be able to get a good nights rest without taking a pill.
  If you can get into the habit of spending your evenings this way, I am sure you will feel less tired during the day. At first it may be hard for you to go to sleep without taking a pill. If so, get up and watch television or do some jobs around your house until you feel sleepy. If you fall asleep and then wake up a few hours later, get up but do not take a sleeping pill. Read a while or listen to the radio, and make yourself a few hours'sleep that night, you will feel better in the morning than you usually feel after taking a pill. The next night you will be ready to sleep at an earlier hour.
  The most important thing is to avoid taking that nap right after dinner and avoid taking pills.

  A. you get the habit of staying up late      B. you haven't taken sleeping pills
