I usually get up at 5:00. I make coffee, go to my desk and work. When my boys get up, I’m theirs. I follow the min to the kitchen and make them breakfast. While they’re eating, I make their lunch, pick out their school clothes and get the little one dressed.
My wife takes them to school. I bring them home. I am not the only father at the school gate. The boys and I walk the 12 blocks home unless the weather is terrible. Then we take the subway. I remind them of looking out, like an animal looking after their babies.
At home, they play on the computer and the little one will draw, sometimes for hours. When their mother comes home, they run to her. She has been in the official day and tired, but her attention is all on them.
I have made dinner. We sit down and eat together. After they do their homework, Karen takes them to bed. I listen to the noise of the boys’ and their mother’s voice.
One afternoon when we were on the way home from school, the boys and I stopped at the clothing store. The saleswoman looked at the boys and said to me in a low voice, “You’re Mr. Mom, aren’t you?” I felt very angry. I’m not Mr. Mom. That’s not how I look at myself. The boys have a mother, a wonderful mother. She works outside the home, I work in the home. We are parents together. I’m a father!

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.
小题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.
小题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.
小题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.
小题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.
小题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.

     It's Saturday morning and Tony's sitting at the kitchen table, staring(凝视)into space and playing with
a piece of bread. He's not even hungry. Is he ill? No,  but he does have a problem. He has nothing to do
and there's a simple reason: the Internet is down and Tony has nothing to do.
     When he woke up this morning,  Tony was  feeling great.  He jumped  out of bed full of plans for the
weekend ahead. It would be a weekend like any other-a great weekend. But  that was before he turned
on his computer and was unable to go online. No Internet changed everything.
     Just as Tony is wondering how he can possibly have a normal(平常的)weekend without the Internet,
his mum walks into the kitchen. "Is everything OK?" she  asks. "No, mum, everything is definitely(的确)
not OK," her sad son replies. "I can't go online  and  I  have homework to finish." His mum laughs, "The
word program is still working, so what's the problem?"
     What's the problem? Tony can't believe his  own  mother  is  unable  to  see how serious the problem
really is. To start with, he still needs to do research for his homework. He knows his mum will tell him to
go to the library but he hates the library.  It's  so  dark  and  uncomfortable. And forget homework-what
about the rest of his weekend! Every weekend,  he goes  online to email friends. Then he reads the news
to catch up on what's happening in the world. He plays a few online games and finishes the weekend off
with an online chess game  with  his  cousin  Helen. The  wonderful  weekend-online!  Now it's Saturday
morning and he's not going to have access to(进入)the Internet for two whole days. He needs help.
1．Is Tony busy with the Internet every weekend?
__________________________________________________________________
2．What does he usually do every weekend?
__________________________________________________________________
3．Why did Tony stare and play with a piece of bread?
__________________________________________________________________
4．What might his mother advise him to do?

　　I think the most terrible thing in life for my little brother is getting up in the morning．He is almost sick when my mother calls, "Herbert! It's seven o'clock! Get up!"
