11．Try this：For a whole day，forget about the clock．Eat when you're hungry and sleep when you're tired．What do you think will happen？
You may be surprised to find that your day is much like most other days．You'll probably get hungry when you normally eat and tired when you normally sleep．Even though you don't know what time it is，your body does．
Inside our bodies are several clocklike systems（系统）that follow a 24-hour cycle（循环）．Everyone is unique （唯一的），which is why you might like to stay up late while your sister always wants to go to bed early．
Regularly staying up late can make kids do worse on tests．And working at night leads to higher rates（比率）of heart disease．
"There is a growing sense that when we eat and when we sleep are important parts of how healthy we are，"says Steven Shea，Director of the Sleep Disorders Research Program at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston．

10．When I was at university，I studied very hard．But a lot of my friends did very （81）little work．Some just did enough to pass the exams．Others didn't do quite enough．Fred Braines was such a student．He spent more time drinking in the （82）Tea House than working in the library．
Once at the end of the term，we had to take an important test in Chinese．The test had 100questions．Beside each question we had to write"True"or"False"．While I was studying in my room，Fred was watching TV．Fred usually worried a lot the night before a test．But on that night he looked very （83）easy．Then he told me of his idea．
"It's very simple．There are 100questions and I have to get 50right to pass the test．I will take a coin into the examination room．I haven't studied a Chinese book for months，so I will toss （抛．the coin．In this way，I'm sure I'll get （84）hhalf of the questions right．"
The next day，Fred came happily into the examination room．As he sat tossing a coin for half an hour，he wrote down his answers．Then he left，half an hour（85）before the rest of us．
The next day，Fred met his Chinese teacher at the school gate．"Oh，good，"he said．"I am sure you have got the（86）results of the test．Did I pass the test？"
The teacher looked at him and smiled，"Ah，it's you，Braines．Just a minute．"Then the teacher reached his pocket and took out a coin．He threw it into the air，caught in his hand and looked at it．"I am sorry，Braines，you （87）failed!"

9．One day，an old man was walking past a small pool which was just outside the village．There he found a young boy standing in the pool up to his knees．He was bent over，disturbing（搅动）the water with his hands．Then now and again he would put his face in the water and bring it out again．He then moved to another part of the pool and began the same action．
The old man called out to the boy in surprise，"What are you doing？"
"I am looking for myself，"said the boy．"My mother told me that if I looked in the pool，I would be able to see my reflection（倒影）．"
"Ha ha!"laughed the old man．"Come here，"he said to the boy．He sat down by the pool and told the boy to sit down next to him．"Sit with me for a little while，"he continued．"Keep still．You need patience．Just watch．"
The silt（泥沙）that had been disturbed by the boy began to once more settle on the bottom of the pool．Finally，the surface of the pool became still and calm，mirror-like．
"Now look，"said the old man．
The boy looked，and for the very first time in his life，he saw his own face．
"Boy，remember this valuable lesson，"said the old man，"When you are fighting with life's troubles and have forgotten who you are，remember to stop for a while．Then the surface（表面）of the pool of life will become still and you will see your reflection in it．"

8．Disposing （处理）of waste has been a problem since humans started producing it．As more and more people choose to live close together in cities，the waste-disposal problem becomes increasingly difficult．
During the eighteenth century，it was usual for several neighboring towns to get together to select a faraway spot as a dumpsite to keep the waste．Residents or trash haulers（垃圾拖运者） would transport household rubbish，rotted wood，and old possessions to the site．Periodically（定期） some of the trash was burned and the rest was buried（掩埋）．The unpleasant sights and smells caused no problem because nobody lived close by．
Factories，mills，and other industrial sites also had waste to be disposed of．Those located on rivers often just dumped the unwanted remains into the water．Others built huge burners with chimneys to deal with the problem．
Several facts make these choices unacceptable to modern society．The first problem is space．Dumps，which are now called landfills，are most needed in heavily populated areas．Such areas rarely have empty land suitable for this purpose．Property is either too expensive or too close to residential（住宅区的） neighborhoods．Long distance trash hauling has been a common practice，but once farm areas are refusing to accept rubbish from elsewhere，cheap land within trucking distance of major city areas is almost nonexistent．
Awareness of pollution dangers has resulted in more strict rules of waste disposal．Pollution of rivers，ground water，land and air is a price people cannot longer pay to get rid of waste．The amount of waste，however，continues to grow．
Recycling efforts have become commonplace，and many towns require their people to take part．Even the most efficient recycling programs，however，can hope to deal with only about 50percent of a city's reusable waste．

53．The best title for this passage would be．D
A．Places for Disposing Waste

C．Ways of Getting Rid of Waste
D．Waste Disposal Problem
54．During the 18th century，people disposed their waste in many ways EXCEPT forC．
A．burying it
B．burning it
C．recycling it
D．throwing it into rivers
55．The main purpose of writing this article is toA．
A．draw people's attention to waste management
B．warn people of the pollution dangers we are facing
C．call on people to take part in recycling programs
D．tell people a better way to get rid of the waste．
