36、s, a sleep specialist in U.S.A. “Theres even a prohibition (禁止) against admitting we need sleep. Nobody wants to be caught napping or found asleep at work.“Wrong.

37、William Dement of Stanford University, the godfather of sleep research. At present, experts and researchers are becoming more and more concerned about the dangers of sleepiness (睡眠不足): people causing industrial accidents or falling asleep while driving. This may be why we have a new sleep policy in

38、the White House. According to recent reports, president Bush is trying to take a half-hour nap every afternoon.About 60 percent of American adults nap when given the opportunity.

42、ld age. First of all, they have less moneyor no money at alland because of this, they often feel they get less respect, even at home. Quite a large number have no pension (退休金) because they have never worked outside the home, and thirty-eight percent are supported mainly by their husbands or childre

43、n. Second, a larger number of old women than old men become widows (single women). Men are normally older than the women they marry, and women generally live longer than men.

48、 their familiesC. all people should do something for elderly womenD. housework should not be done by elderly women（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.DWe find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching.
