Thats what all doctors thought, until they heard about Al Herpin. Al Herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.Al Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw Herpin sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.1. The main idea of this passage is that_A. a person was found who actually didnt need any sleepBlarge numbers of people do not need sleepCeveryone needs some sleep to stay aliveDpeople can live longer by trying not to sleep2. The doctors came to visit Herpin, expecting to_Acure him of his sleeplessnessBfind a way to free people from the need of sleepingCfind that his sleeplessness was not really trueDfind out why some old people didnt need any sleep3. After watching him closely, the doctors came to believe that Al Herpin_Awas too old to need any sleep Bneeded no sleep at allCoften slept in a chair Dneeded some kind of sleep4. One reason that might explain Herpins sleeplessness was _A. that he hadnt got a bed Bthat he had gradually got tired of the sleeping habitChis mothers injury before he was born Dhis magnificent physical conditionBIt is the injury from breathing cigarettes that has led to the invention of ecigarettes. Using these cigarettes requires small power from battery and these cigarettes are also available in various flavors and varied nicotine levels. Owing to the fact that the charge from a short cable is required, carrying the electronic cigarettes cant be that easy in some case. This means that the smoking habits of individuals are in fact controlled! Also,the human body is protected from harmful smoke that is not given off by the electrical version of these New Age cigarettes.The cigarettes are in a fine pack and they are durable (持久的)! For the first time ever,tobacco smokers do not have to carry matches and lighters which may cause burns to their finger tips and boring holes into their clothes! The result is basic dignity for the smokers because they will not disrespect the nonsmokers among them by polluting the air that they breathe. Electronic cigarettes and the packages they come in can also be reused,which means that a lot of money can be saved.They are environmentally friendly(环保). For starters, this kind of cigarettes cannot be put on unless with a source of an electrical current. This means that rooms and pathways do not, under any circumstances, get filled with smoke just because a smoker passed by! The smoke is done away, meaning the air, even around a smoker, is always fresh! Disposals (处理) for the cigarettes have also been invented so that there are no harmful smoking bits and pieces carelessly thrown away which pollute the environment!Ecigarettes have made the world a better place at the very least. Those who are addicted to smoking on a regular or even irregular basis can therefore do so responsibly and give better consideration to their health.5Its learned from Paragraph 1 that Athe original smoking habits of smokers are hard to controlBecigarettes have different tastes and nicotine levelsCthe electronic cigarettes are convenient to carryDthe short cable is used to determine how fully the batteries are charged6Whats the main idea of Paragraph 3?AWhy do ecigarettes produce no smoke.BEcigarettes are environmentally friendly.CWhy are disposals for the cigarettes invented.DEcigarettes benefit both smokers and nonsmokers.7According to the author, ecigarettes Amatter less to heavy smokers Bare right alternatives to smokersCshouldnt be overvalued Dshould be made cheap8Whats the purpose of this passage?ATo introduce an invention.

It will take me away for a while after I am tired. The guitars and songs will take me to mountains and fields.Country music usually talks of everyday life and feelings. Its the spirit of America, easy to understand, slow and simple.Country music developed in the Southern United States. It was the folk music of American countryside. Many of songs tell about the lives of farmers. They talk about love, crops or death.The life of the countryside can be hard, so the words in country music are often sad.
