阅读理解。      Scientists are trying to make the deserts into good land again. They want to bring water to the deserts, so
people can live and grow food. They are learning a lot about the deserts. But more and more of the earth is
becoming desert all the time. Scientists may not be able to change the desert in time.
      Why is more and more land becoming desert? Scientists think that people make deserts. People are doing
bad things to the earth.
      Some places on the earth don"t get much rain. But they still don"t become deserts. This is because some
green plants are growing there. Small green plants and grass are very important to dry places. Plants don"t let the
hot sun make the earth even drier. Plants don"t let the wind blow the dirt away. When a little bit of rain falls, the
plants hold the water. Without plants, the land can become a desert much more easily. 1. Deserts _________. [     ]
A. get very little rain
B. never have any plants or animals in them
C. can all be turned into good land in the future
D. both A and C 2. Small green plants are very important to day places because ________. [     ]
A. they don"t let the sun make the earth even drier
B. they don"t let the wind blow the earth away
C. they hold the water
D. A, B and C 3. Land is becoming desert little by little because ________. [     ]
A. plants can"t grow there
B. there"s not enough rain

阅读短文,选择正确答案。     Do you get enough sleep? With so much homework it"s often difficult to get the rest you need. But you need
to try, because sleep keeps you healthy and it stops you getting fat.
     Recently, a group of US scientists did a study (调查) of kids aged between8 and 13. The study found that if
