22、Students at an elementary school in California, with the help of their art teacher, created a telephone hotline that people can call to get cheerful advice from kids during difficult times. Shortly afterwards, the hotline began getting thousands of calls an hour.

The hotline is available in English and Spanish. It offers the happy voices of children of different ages sharing positive messages. For example, by pressing 1, you can hear a group of kindergartners saying together, “You can do it! Keep trying, and don’t give up!” Pressing 2 brings the sounds of children laughing-a sound certain to bring a smile to anyone’s face.

Jessica Martin, who teaches art at West Side School in Healdsburg, California, thought her students just might have the magic words needed to bring calm to people in difficult times. Ms. Martin worked with students at West Side on a project they called “PepToc”. Actually, they called it “Pep Talk” first. But when Ms. Martin’s 6-year-old son drew an ad for the hotline and spelled it “PepToc”, they decided they liked that even better.

Most of the project was completed in a day. Ms. Martin worked with students from kindergarten to the sixth grade. She had the same basic question for all the students-What could you say to help or encourage someone else? Students working on the hotline thought of what they would like to say. When they were ready, Ms. Martin recorded each one. Later, she sorted out the recordings into the different parts of the telephone hotline.

Ms. Martin thought the project would only attract interest from people near the school. But the hotline was soon getting hundreds of calls a day-and then, thousands of calls an hour. It’s become unbelievably popular with stressed adults, patients in hospitals, older people in homes, and others who just want to hear the happy voices of children.

23、   Imagine eating everything delicious you want – with none of the fat. That would be great, wouldn’t it?

New "fake fat" products appeared on store shelves in the United States recently, but not everyone is happy about it. Makers of the products, which contain a compound called olestra, say food manufacturers can now eliminate fat from certain foods. Critics, however, say the new compound can rob the body of essential vitamins and nutrients and can also cause unpleasant side effects in some people. So it’s up to consumers to decide whether the new fat-free products taste good enough to keep eating.

Chemists discovered olestra in the late 1960s, when they were searching for a fat that could be digested by infants more easily. Instead of finding the desired fat, the researchers created a fat that can’t be digested at all.

Normally, special chemical in the intestines（肠）"grab" molecules of regular fat and break them down so they can be used by the body. A molecule of regular fat is made up of three molecules of substances called fatty acids.

The fatty acids are absorbed by the intestines and bring with them the essential vitamins A, D, E and K. When fat molecules are present in the intestines with any of those vitamins, the vitamins attach to the molecules and are carried into the bloodstream.

Olestra, which is made from six to eight molecules of fatty acids, is too large for the intestines to absorb. It just slides through the intestines without being broken down. Manufacturers say it’s that ability to slide unchanged through the intestines that makes olestra so valuable as a fat substitute. It provides consumers with the taste of regular fat without any bad effects on the body. But critics say olestra can prevent vitamins A, D, E and K from being absorbed. It can also prevent the absorption of carotenoids（类胡萝卜素）, compounds that may reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, etc.

Manufacturers are adding vitamins A, D, E and K as well as carotenoids to their products now. Even so, some nutritionists are still concerned that people might eat unlimited amounts of food made with the fat substitute without worrying about how many calories they are consuming.

【1】From the article, we learn that olestra ______.

A.is nutritious, containing plenty of carotenoids

B.renders foods calorie-free while retaining their vitamins

C.helps foods to be highly absorbent and digestible

D.makes foods fat-free while keeping them delicious

【2】The result of the search for an easily digestible fat turned out to be ______.

A.commercially useless B.scientifically challenging

C.somewhat troublesome D.quite unexpected

【3】Olestra is different from ordinary fats in that ______.

A.it passes through the intestines without being absorbed

B.it facilitates the absorption of vitamins by the body

C.it helps reduce the incidence of heart disease

D.it prevents excessive intake of vitamins

【4】With vitamins added to olestra, nutritionists are left with the concern that ______.

A.it may lead to the over-consumption of vitamins.

B.people may be induced to eat more than is necessary.

C.the function of the intestines may be weakened.

D.it may trigger a new wave of fake food production.

24、Contrary to popular belief, people who sleep six to seven hours a night live longer, and those who sleep eight hours or more die younger, according to the latest study ever conducted on the subject. The study, which has tracked the sleeping habits of 1.1 million Americans for six years, weakens the advice of many sleep doctors who have long recommended that people get eight or nine hours of sleep every night.

“There’s an old idea that people should sleep eight hours a night, which has no more scientific basis than the gold at the end of the rainbow,” said Daniel Kripke, professor of psychiatry（精神病学）at the University of California at San Diego who led the study published in a recent copy of JAMA Psychiatry.

The study was not designed to answer why sleeping longer may be harmful or whether people could extend their lifespan by sleeping less.

But Kripke said it was possible that people who slept longer tended to suffer from short-term absence of sleeping, a condition where weak breathing puts stress on the heart and brain. He also stressed that the need for sleep was similar to that for food, where getting less than people want may be better for them.

The study quickly caused warnings and criticism（批评）, with some sleep experts saying that the main problem of America’s sleep habits was deprivation（剥夺）, not sleeping too much.

“None of this says sleep kills people,” said Daniel Buysse, a psychiatrist at the university of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

“You should sleep as much as you need to feel awake, alert and attentive the next day,” Buysse added. “I’m much more concerned about people short-changing themselves on sleep than people sleeping too long.”

“Sleeplessness produces a variety of health consequences that were not measured in the study,” critics said.

【1】The traditional idea about sleeping is that ________.

A. people who sleep longer die younger

B. people who sleep less than six or seven hours live longer

C. people need to sleep less to keep healthy

D. people need to sleep eight or nine hours a night

【2】Which of the following statements does NOT agree with the study made by the American scientists according to the passage?

A. People can extend their lifespan by sleeping less.

B. Sleeping longer may be harmful to people’s health.

C. People should sleep as much as they need to keep awake, alert and attentive.

D. It is possible that people who sleep longer tend to suffer from short-term absence of sleeping.

【3】“The gold at the end of the rainbow” mentioned in the passage shows that ________.

A. sleeping is quite valuable in our lives

B. the traditional idea that people should sleep eight hours a night has no scientific basis at all.

C. sleeping longer is as valuable as the gold at the end of the rainbow.

D. the idea of long sleeping hours comes from the gold at he end of the rainbow.

【4】What is the best title for this passage?

A. A new idea challenges the scientists

B. Sleep less, live longer

C. Sleep more, die younger

D. A new idea about sleeping causes criticism
