     Do you know why you sleep? You may think it's because you're tired. Or perhaps you've been told sleep
is good for you. Yet no one knows exactly why or how people sleep.
      Until the early 1950s, most scientists thought the body and brain rested during sleep. Then a scientist
watched people sleep. He noticed that during periods of between 5 and 30 minutes, sleepers' eyes made
rapid movements, as if they were watching something. He called these periods REM (Rapid Eye Movement)
sleep. He called periods when sleeper's eyes did not move non-REM sleep.
     Whenever the scientist woke people during REM sleep, they were having vivid dreams. Measurements
showed that sleepers' pulses (脉搏) went up quickly during REM sleep. Their breathing, heartbeat, and the
blood going to the brain also increased. Far from being a time of rest, sleep is a time when the body is hard
at work. Scientists still don't know the reason for this. Some believe REM sleep makes learning easier.
Babies spend a lot of time on REM sleep. Because of this, some scientists believe that REM sleep helps
the brain grow. Others think REM sleep is a time for the brain to empty the day's garbage.
      One thing all the scientists agree on is that sleep is necessary. Without enough sleep, people make
mistakes. Most car accidents happen during the early morning hours, when people are sleepiest.
1. During REM sleep, a person's breathing and heartbeat ______.
A. stop

3. ______ tells what happens when people don't get enough sleep.

4. The main idea of this passage is ______.
A. that REM sleep can help the brain grow
B. about the scientific research of REM sleep
C. about how to empty the day's garbage
D. that our body is good at work when sleeping

  Laws(法律)for children are good things. One hundred years ago in some countries, children worked eighteen hours a day in a factory at age seven. The factory owner could beat a child who fell asleep or was not fast enough. Both parents and teachers could do the same.

  Today, there are many laws about children all over the world. Some people think if children do something wrong, they should be punished(惩罚). Other people do not agree. The Inuits or Eskimos in Alaska almost never punish their children. The parents do not beat them. If the children go too far, their parents will punish their children by making fun of(取笑)them.

  Children in other parts of the world are not as lucky as Eskimo children. American parents can beat their children at home, but a teacher can’t beat a child in school. This is also true in Germany. Instead, in Sweden it is against the law for anyone to beat a child. Swedish parents can’t beat their children. The children also have a government official(政府官员)who works for their rights(权力). There is even a plan(计划)for children to leave their parents, though this is not a law yet!
