3、Passage Two
The thought of not sleeping for twenty-four hours or more is not a pleasant one for most people．The amount of sleep that each person needs varies．In general,each of us needs about eight hours of sleep each day to keep our bodies healthy and happy．Some people,however,can get by just a few hours of sleep at night．
It doesn't matter when or how much a person sleeps．But everyone needs some rest to stay alive．Few doctors would have thought that there might be an exception on this．Sleep is,after all,a very basic need．But a man named AI Herpin turned out to be a real exception,for supposedly,he never slept!
A1 Herpin was 90 years old when doctors came to his home in New Jersey．They hoped to negate the claims that he never slept．But they were surprised．Though they watched him every hour of the day,they never saw Herpin sleeping．He did not even own a bed．He never needed one．
The closest that Herpin came to resting was to sit in a rocking chair and read a half dozen news-papers．His doctors were baffled by this strange case of permanent insomnia．Herpin offered the only clue to his condition．He remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days be-fore he had been born．Herpin died at the age of 94,never having slept a wink．
This passage centers on______

7、Of all Barry
H．Landau's anecdotes about his friendships with presidential dogs,perhaps the best is the one about the time the Clinton White House called to postpone his play-date with Buddy．
Yes,Landau is both human and an adult,a 60-year-old author,presidential historian,former White House protocol officer and memorabilia collector．But so enamored is he of dogs,and so well connected to a succession of presidents,that he had an appointment for a South Lawn romp one day with Buddy,Bill Clinton's Labrador retriever(拉布拉多犬).
Logistics got in the way,though,and hence Clinton secretary Betty Currie's apologetic voice mail left at the Smithsonian Institution,where Landau was doing research:"I'm sorry,but we'll have to reschedule Mr．Landau's play-date with Buddy."
Not surprisingly,this is a happy week for Landau,with the new Obama family dog,Bo,joining a White House tradition that dates to George Washington．It's one that Landau feels is invaluable to a presidency.
"Having a dog just humanizes a president,"he says．"It completes the picture．It's something people can relate to."
And Landau has related to the best of them．He's known about 25 White House dogs since the Eisenhower administration．Among the presidential-pooch memorabilia in his Manhattan apartment are matching orange inaugural dog coats worn by LBJ's twin beagles(小猎犬),Him and Her,and a photo of Landau kissing Clipper,JFK's German shepherd.
Who was the first president to have a dog in the White House?

8、On television all over the world there are programmes about the work of the police．They are popular because they are usually very exciting．In London there is a television programme called"Police Five"--because it is on for five minutes once a week．A television reporter,Shaw Taylor,talks about crimes in the London area．He asks for public help．The police station needs the help of ordinary people because sometimes you or I have information that can be useful to the police.
Shaw Taylor shows pictures of paintings,jewellery(珠宝)and other things which thieves stole during the week．Sometimes he shows the car that the thieves escaped in．When people see men or things on the television programme which they may remember,they can tell the police where they saw them．With their help the police may catch more criminals.
Sometimes the police find a car or some money．Shaw Taylor shows them on television．The owners sometimes see them．Then they can telephone the police and say,"Thank you very much--that's mine!"
When people see things stolen on the programme which they may remember,__.

9、There Pictures from outer space now show us how much land has changed on earth．These images are taken by Landsat 7,a government satellite．The satellites have been used for 27 years．They reveal the clear-cutting of forests in the northwestern part of the United States．Pictures show the loss of rain forests in South America.
NASA's Darrel Williams speaks about the Landsat 7 Project．He said that an eruption caused trees to burn up in a large forest．Fifteen years later,pinkish images from space show that the trees and plant life are growing again．Williams says that clear-cut areas easily show up in the pictures．He wants Americans to look at how much land is being cleared of forests in our country.
Satellites have provided other information about changes on earth．In the past ten years,more than four miles have shrunk from glaciers in Alaska．Landsat 7 received these computer images of Glacier Bay in Alaska.
Hurricanes Floyd and Irene have damaged the coastline in North Carolina．Runoff from farms and silt have gone into the．ocean according to satellite images．Loss of trees and forests have caused hotter summers in southern cities such as Atlanta,Georgia.
The Landsat 7 images are like pictures in a photo album．Instead of pictures of the family,the album shows changes around the globe in the past 25 years.
A new satellite,Terra,is going to be launched by NASA soon．It will be more advanced than Landsat 7 and will take important global pictures．Ocean temperatures and energy loss will be provided by Terra daily.
Landsat 7 knows that Alaskan glaciers have shrunk because__.

10、Many people use wood stoves and fireplaces to heat their homes．Scientists have become worried about the smoke that they give off．Harmful chemicals are in the smoke．The smoke is causing air pollution．The pieces of pollution,called soot,are floating in the air．They are too tiny to see．Scientists must use a microscope to see them.
Small amounts of soot are safe,but large amounts can be dangerous．The govenment wants to limit this kind of pollution．It may stop people from using their fireplaces.
The air is tested every day．When soot levels are high,more than 65 micrograms of soot per cubic meter,factories must stop making smoke．The government thinks that limit should be much lower.
Factories produce the most smoke and soot．But the government thinks that all types of burning should be limited．The soot levels from factories and homes could be limited．Home owners may have to install new wood stoves that they comply with the new law．Or,they may not be able to bum on days when the air quality is bad.
Residents of some towns are fined if they violate the burning ban．Scientists hope these new regulations will make the air cleaner and less harmful to breathe.
What happens to some residents who bum too much wood?

13、Above all know your audience and match what you say to their needs．Creating your presentation with your audience in mind will assure that your audience will follow you．If your presentation doesn't appeal to your audience-no matter how well you have developed your presentation--your presentation will fall on deaf ears．This leads us to the next rule:Know your material thoroughly．Your material needs to be second nature to you．Practice and rehearse your presentation with friends,in front of a mirror,and with colleagues．If you are speaking in a second language,make sure that you record yourself and listen to a number of times before going to practice with a native speaker(if possible).
Remember that you are an actor when presenting．Make sure that not only your physical appearance is appropriate to the occasion,but also the tone you use is well chosen．If your topic is serious,be solemn．However,it's always a good idea to begin your presentation with an ice-breaker．Don't worry about making friends,rather lead the audience through your materials in a calm and relaxed manner．Speak slowly and clearly,and remember to address everyone in the audience-even the person the farthest away from you.
To achieve the above goals follow these tips when giving your presentation:
●Speak with conviction．Believe what you are saying and you will persuade your audience．
●Do not read from notes．Referring to notes is fine,but do so only briefly.
●Maintain eye contact with your audience．Making direct eye contact with individuals will help them feel as if they are participating in your presentation.
●Bring handouts．Don't just use a PowerPoint presentation．Provide audience members with handouts of the most important materials so they can keep your most
important takeaways in mind.
●Know when to stop．This cannot be underestimated．You need to make your case,but continuing for too long will only ensure that the audience forgets what you have said.
