Rita stepped into the cool, moving water. She pushed a black inner tube(内胎) in front of her. She had a worried look on her face because she had never floated down a river before.

    “Let me hold your tube while you climb on,” said her father. He smiled at her. “There’s not a cloud in the sky. It’s a great day to be in the river, isn’t it?”

    Rita looked out across the water. People were floating by on tubes. Some talked and laughed as they floated easily down the river. Others leaned(倚靠) back with hats pulled over their faces. None of them looked terrified.

    “We’ll stay together,” said Rita’s father. “I’ll hold on to your rope(绳子).”

    “Will we go very fast?” Rita asked.

    “No,” said Dad. “We’ll move slowly for a while, and then it will get a little faster near the river’s bend(拐弯). Don’t worry, Rita. You’ll be fine.”

    Rita looked at her tube. It gently(轻轻地) moved up and down in the water. She saw a girl of her own age float by. The girl seemed to be having fun. Suddenly Rita’s worries disappeared（消失）.

    “I’m ready to climb on and ride, Dad,” she said.

A student newspaper reports that most students go to sleep at 1:30 am. Even if that’s an overstatement (夸张), it’s close to the truth. Scientists say teens should sleep nine hours each night. But that’s hard. Some are even “pulling all-nighters” (开夜车). These students must hand in their homework the next day but they haven’t done it. In the morning they don’t look healthy and you can tell who’s been doing it. One of my classmates did a survey on the topic. She found that most kids pull all-nighters to finish homework, but some do it for other reasons, such as playing computer games!

    Maybe our lack(缺乏) of sleep is because of laziness — I think I’m a rather lazy student — or maybe it’s because we have too much to do in American high schools. I usually go to bed around midnight. If I stayed up past 1:30 am, I wouldn’t get any work done. I’d be falling asleep at my computer. My classes begin at 7:30 am. I’m partly awake in my first class. By the second, I’m a little sleepy. By my third class, I’m sleepy. By midday I’m finally fully awake. But by 3:00 pm, I’m slowing down again. Yet I get more sleep than usual students.

    Most American high schools seem to have a similar(相似的) problem with sleepy students. High school classes start at 7:30 am, so students have to get up one and a half hours before that to get ready and catch the bus. It’s believed that lack of sleep can be bad for both grades and health. Some schools are paying attention. Classes in those schools start at 8:30 am.

1.What does the underlined sentence “it’s close to the truth” mean?

A. It doesn’t tell the truth.         B. It is quite true.

C. It is impossible.              D. I don’t think it’s right.

2.Why do most of the teens have to stay up late?

A. They play computer games.             B. They watch videos late.

C. They have to do a lot of housework.      D. They have to do a lot of homework.

3.When do students in most American high schools have to get up?

A. At 7:30 am.     B. At 6:00 am.    C. At 9:00 am.    D. At about 7:00 am.

4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the reading?

A. The writer usually stays up past 1:30 am.

B. The writer usually goes to bed around midnight.

C. The writer usually does a survey.

D. Many American students don’t get enough sleep, so they can have high grades.

5.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Something has to be done to solve the problem of students’ lack of sleep.

B. Many American high school students are sleepy in class.

C. Many kids have too much homework to do.

D. Students can’t play computer games.
