Mandarin Chinese is the most widely-spoken language in the world. It is one of the languages that matters the most to our countrys future development. If the United Kingdom wants to remain competitive on the world stage, we do need far more of our young people leaving school with a good command of Mandarin Chinese, Gibb added. We hope that our young people could be given the chance to study the language. We want them to be fluent in both spoken and written Mandarin. The Mandarin Excellence Program will help us do this. It will not only broaden the students minds, but give them a great advantage when they enter the world of work as well.British kids, in fact, are not alone.

So how long should young people sleep each night? The answer is between 8 and 10 hours. If you dont get enough sleep at night, youll have less energy the next day.A report shows that children sleep less because they have TVs and computers in their rooms, and busy parents dont read to their younger children at night any more. The traditional bedtime story helps children to relax and fall asleep peacefully. Children with TVs and computers in their bedrooms were more likely to sleep badly, and to get less than eight hours sleep. Even losing one hours sleep a night can mean that children do worse than usual at school.British scientists think that your brain keeps working while youre asleep. To show that they were right, they have done an experiment. They gave two groups of people a problem to work out. One group went to sleep, and the other group stayed awake. You want to know the result? The people who slept worked out the answer more quickly. Researchers explained that their brains were trying to find the answer while the people were asleep. So, make sure you get enough sleep tonight, and youll be at your best tomorrow!（1）How long should the young sleep every night? （2）What does the writer think of the traditional bedtime story? （3）Are the children with computers in their bedrooms more likely to sleep better? （4）In the last paragraph, what does the experiment show us? （5）What does the passage mainly try to tell us? 38. （10分）从方框中选择适当的选项填入到短文中，使短文内容完整、通顺。 A.
