Do you know how much your children sleep?

According to the National Sleep Foundation,       should sleep twelve to eighteen hours        of every twenty-four. With a gradual        to twelve to fourteen hours for toddlers(初学走路的孩子) one to three; eleven to thirteen hours for        three to five; and ten to eleven hours for schoolchildren        five to ten.

      But things get really       at adolescence. Not only do teenagers need more sleep than     __---eight and a half to nine and a quarter hours a night, according to the sleep foundation - but the times          which they get sleepy and are able to awaken         and feel rested shift in a       that does not match to the       times at most schools.

     Sleep studies have shown that the typical teenager does not fall asleep readily before 11 p. m. or later.        many have to get up by 6 a. m. or          to get to school for a class         starts at 7:30 or 8 a.m. More than a few         off during that class, and often the         one as well. Even if awake, they're in no condition to learn much of anything.

     In one study, more than 90 percent of teenagers        they slept less than the          nine hours a night, and 10 percent said they slept less than six hours.

           _ James B. Maas, a Cornell University psychologist and Leading sleep researcher, has observed, most teenagers are "walking zombies(僵尸)"        they get far too little sleep.

When I was a little girl, every time my dad was repairing something, he   1.  ask me to hold the hammer, and meanwhile, have a conversation with me. I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family.

   I grew up and left home for college and  2.      then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning, no matter what. Several years later I bought a house,   3.       my dad painted by himself for three days in the 80-degree summer heat. All he asked was   4.       me to talk to him. But I was always busy,   5.     (able) to find any time for conversation with him.

   One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Later that day came a call   6.    (say) my father was in hospital. Immediately I bought a ticket for a flight and on my way I was thinking about all the   7.     (miss) occasions to have a talk with my dad.

     8.    the time I got to hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was   9.       who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realized   10.    little I know about my dad, his deepest thoughts and dreams. After his death I learned more about him, and even more about myself.

Dear Sir,

   Last year I bought the refrigerator in your store on Hong Qi Street. We all like the shape of the refrigerator. Recently I have found anything is wrong with it. It begins to make a noise when it turned on. At first it is low but gradual it becomes louder and louder. To make matter worse, it even stopped working sometimes. We all feel disappointing. I am writing to you to ask for help. Would you please send a person to repair? I will at home this weekend. Please call me until you come here. My telephone number is 66065531. Thanks you very much.
