24、Grand Opening

Bentwood Truck Museum Saturday,

November 8, at 10:00 A. M.

After eighteen months of hard work by more than 100 volunteers, the Bentwood Truck Museum is ready to open. The old factory on the corner of Palmer Street and Norman Drive had been scheduled to be destroyed. When Roger Haygood heard about the plans to tear down the building, he bought it so that he could store his collection of old trucks there. Then he had the idea of turning the building into a truck museum. 

During the past year and a half, the old building has been transformed into a treasure chest of memories. Instead of a dark and dull house, the building has become a cheery, bright home for all kinds of trucks from the past.

The museum now houses 68 trucks, and we hope to have even more soon. There is a 1959 school bus, a 1942 bakery truck, and a 1937 fire engine. Our oldest vehicle is a 1919 milk truck. Our newest vehicle is a 1966 tow truck. 

You can take a ride on a fire truck, a mail truck, or an ice-cream truck. Rides are $2.00, but you can get a ticket for a free ride at any grocery store in Bentwood.

Help us celebrate our grand opening by bringing your family and friends! There is something to interest everyone who attends. The Bentwood Truck Museum is a special piece of our history. 

   To get to Bentwood Truck Museum, take Route 29 (Kingston Highway) to Palmer

Street.

 Go south on Palmer Street for one block and take a left onto Norman Drive.

25、   Gareth Ellis, 13, is the youngest son of Alan, an engineer, and Kath, a teacher. His older brothers work in banking and computers, but Gareth’s dream was always to become a clown(小丑). Three years ago, Alan, Kath and Gareth joined the circus(马戏团). “People laugh when we tell them,” says Kath. “But it’s true. Gareth has wanted to be a clown since we took him to the circus when he was three.”

When Alan lost his job, he and Kath decided to see if they could find full-time circus jobs. They both got jobs with a famous circus and Gareth began training to become a clown. He calls himself Bippo. They travel with the circus during the summer and return home for the winter. Gareth’s brothers are old enough to look after the house while they are away.

“I can’t say it was easy,” says Kath. “There was a lot to think about and organize. We only had a car and a very small caravan(大篷车)to sleep in, and we were leaving behind our lovely house. The only thing Gareth missed was his long, hot baths.”

“People ask about my education,” says Gareth, “but from the beginning, wherever we go, someone has always come to teach me. I follow the same books as everyone back at school and I’ve got a computer. I’ve never fallen behind my classmates.”

And the future? “It was a difficult decision,” says Kath, “but there was no other way to teach Gareth about being a clown. I’m happy to say it’s working, and we’re enjoying it.” And Gareth? “I’m going to be the main clown in a circus one day”, he says, “perhaps Bippo’s circus.”

26、   At night,you are just lying there, but the body is busy.

9:00 pm Get Comfortable

It usually takes about 15 or 20 minutes to fall asleep, with the most comfortable position. Some people sleep on their backs and some on their stomachs. Most people curl up in a "fetal position" like a baby in the womb(子宫). Other people like strange positions like sleeping on elbows(肘部) and knees.

9:20 pm  I am Falling Asleep

You're about to sleep when suddenly you feel like falling. You even dream you are falling off a cliff. Your body jerks(抽搐). What's happening? Well, you are falling-asleep. Your body relaxes, but your brain is still active and when your muscles become less tense, your brain senses that you are in danger of falling. To save you, your brain sends a signal.

10:00 pm  Did You Hear That?

Soon a loud sound breaks the peace. What? You are snoring. When this happens, you breathe through your mouth, and as you take in air, it makes the soft tissue(组织) at the back of your throat vibrate(振动). The bad news is that you may snore more as you get older, especially if you are a boy. The good news is that snoring is not usually a serious problem, unless of course, you wake up your little brother or sister.

11:00 pm  Better Lock the Doors

Some sleepers get really busy during the first few hours of the night. Sleep walking, sleep talking and even bed wetting can be caused by the disagreement between your brain and your body. Sleepwalkers keep their eyes open and seems to see where they are going, but they are sound asleep. This behavior is a common among children, whose brains and bodies are still learning to work together.

4:00 am Dare to Dream

Nightmares(噩梦) or sweet dreams usually occur in the last hours of sleep. If you awaken in the middle of a dream, you might find it difficult to move for a moment or two. Certain parts of your brain have shut down, preventing messages from going to the muscles, temporarily(暂时地) disabling the body.

7:00 am But My Arm Is Still Asleep

Time to wake up, as you begin to move, a strange feeling floods down from your shoulder. Oh no, pins and needles! When pressure on your arm keeps the nerves（神经）from sending any messages to the brain, your arm loses all feelings. Don't worry if you wake up and your arm is still asleep. It'll be wide awake soon.

【1】Which picture best describe the underlined words “fetal position”?

C. D.

【2】When do you have a feeling of falling?

A.When you are sound asleep. B.When you are having a dream.

C.When you are moving at night. D.When you are about to falling asleep.

【3】What is TRUE about snoring?

A.Luckily, girls will snore less as they get older.

B.Snoring is a serious problem so we should avoid it.

C.When you snore, you won’t use your nose to take in air.

D.It is because the soft tissue of the throat vibrates itself.

【4】According to this passage, it’s common that .

A.children sometimes are sleepwalkers B.dreams happen in the first hours of sleep

C.it often takes about an hour to fall asleep D.your arm wakes up together with your body

【5】What’s the best title of this passage?
