Do you get enough sleep？ With so much homework it's often difficult to get the rest you need. But you need to try， because sleep keeps you healthy and it stops you getting fat.
Recently， a group of US scientists did a study （调查） of kids aged between 8 and 13. The study found that if kids sleep for just one extra （额外的） hour each day， the chance of their getting fat is cut by about 30 percent .
Why？ When people don't get enough sleep， they become tired. When they are tired， they don't exercise enough. Also， kids like snacks： If they are awake an extra hour or two each day， they have more time to eat snacks or other unhealhy foods.
So， how much sleep should you get？ Scientists suggest 10 to 11 hours a night for kids aged 5 to 12. For older kids，eight to nine hours will do.
61．How many reasons are given why people might get fat without enough sleep？
A．3.
62．If you are under 10， how long do the scientists advice you to sleep？
A．10 to 11 hours.
C．8 to 13 hours. D．As long as possible.
63．Where was the study done by the scientists？
A．In China.
64．What does' eight to nine hours will do' mean？
A．Eight to nine hours' sleep will be good and enough.
B．Eight to nine hours' sleep will be too long.
C．Eight to nine hours' sleep will help get fat.
D．Eight to nine hours' sleep will help eat snacks and unhealhy foods.
65．What does the passage talk about？

About 130 years ago. Thomas Edison of the US invented the light bulb. Edison's bulb has turned night into day ever since. But today， many want to turn the light off.
The European Union （欧盟） recently decided that by 2009， people should stop using the Edison-style light bulb. Instead， they should use compact fluorescent lamps （CFLs节能灯）.
'CFLs save energy and last longer. They Can save money in the long run，' said a British official. CFLs use 67 percent （67%） less electricity than the older bulbs. They last up to 10 times （倍） longer. Scentists say that if everyone used CFLs， electricity use would be cut by 18 percent. There would also be much smaller amounts of greenhouse gases （温室气体） given off.
But it's difficult to make people change their lighting habits. First the CFLs are more expensive. They cost eight times the price of the older bulbs. Many people don't like the CFL bulb. They find it too bright. You cannot change the light of a CFL， either.
CFLs have been around for several years. However. the older lights still make up about two-thirds （2/3） of total（全部的） light bulb sales.
66．Thomas Edison invented the CFL bulb 130 years ago.
67．Countries in the European Union will not use Edison-style bulbs by 2009.
68．Using CFLs helps protect environment.
69．If you get an older bulb for 1 Euro （欧元）. the CFL bulb will cost you 8 Euros.
70．CFLs have been widely used instead of the older bulbs for several years.
