When you close your eyes and need to rest, sleep is just the very best. Sleep helps your body grow and stay healthy. However, in the animal world, it seems that some animals don’t need much sleep.

Giraffes usually sleep, although not for a long time. In places like zoos, giraffes have been known to sleep for between four and five hours, mostly at night. During sleep, the animal may lie down or stay standing. Standing sleep is more common among older giraffes. In the wild, however, the animals almost never sleep for longer than five minutes at a time. More often, they sleep fully standing and their eyes are half-open so they can see an enemy getting close.

Deer (鹿) do not sleep much during the day or the night. In fact, the night is a dangerous time for the animal to sleep because some of their enemies look for food at night. However, deer try their best to sleep for three to four hours. Even when sleeping, they have to be careful so that they do not become food for their enemies.

The Alpine Swift (雨燕) is a bird that lives in places from southern Europe all the way to the Himalayas. These birds spend a lot of their time flying to the warmer places and all the way to the south of Africa. The birds may spend up to 200 days flying during their journey. These birds sleep while they fly. The Alpine Swifts are able to sleep with one side of their brain while the other side pays much attention to flying and finding enemies.

Dolphins (海豚) usually go to sleep with only one side of their brain so that they use the other side of their brain for swimming and to watch out for enemies. Some dolphins do not go to sleep in the first month of their lives. Instead, they rest by pushing their bodies against their mothers so that they do not drown (淹死).Mothers need to make sure that they do not go to sleep. That is why mother dolphins are able to go for at least a month without sleeping.

【1】Deer stay awake most of the time to ________ .

A．smell danger

B．look for food

C．feed their young

D．move to another place

【2】What is special about the Alpine Swift?

A．It sleeps during the day.

B．It can stay awake for 200 days.

C．It can sleep while it flies.

D．It needs no sleep in warm places.

【3】What do dolphins and the Alpine swifts have in common?

A．Babies don’t sleep at all.

B．Mothers sleep less than fathers.

C．Babies rest with their mothers.

D．They sleep with half of their brain.

26、Choose the best answer

My favorite area in Britain is a country called Northumberland in the north-east of the country. I like it because it has mountains, the sea and history. The mountains are not very high. In China you would probably call them hills rather than mountains as they are less than 1,000 meters high, but there is something wild about these mountains you get a feeling of space and freedom. You can walk for miles without meeting another person.

Northumberland is full of history. There are seven castles, some of them were ruined and the others still there as they were centuries ago. You can find graves going back to prehistoric（史前的）, times and strange carvings on rocks which nobody understands. The coast line is dramatic too, with beautiful sandy beaches. These beaches are rarely crowded because the weather is unpredictable and the North Sea is very cold! People don’t go for seaside holidays to Northumberland because of the cold sea and weather, so even in high season there aren’t many tourists.

There is an island called Holy Island off the coast of Northumberland, you can get to the island by car or on foot when the tide is out. There is also one castle I particularly like. It is a 14th century castle which stands on a cliff right by the sea. The castle is almost completely ruined, but it looks dramatic and romantic because you can still see the gate and two of its owners. On a summer’s day you can lie on the beach nearby and let your mind wander as you look at this dream-like castle. On a winter’s day you can walk to the castle and watch the waves crash into the cliff, wondering how this castle has stood so long against the forces of nature.

I once said to a friend of mine that I thought this castle by the sea was the most beautiful place in the world. She laughed and said there must be many more dramatic places in the world. In one way, I’m sure she’s right, but for me, it’s not just about what a place looks like, it’s about what it says to you.

B. It looks very dramatic and romantic with two towers but no gate.

C. The author can let his mind wander as he looks at this dream-like castle.

D. The author can walk to the castle and watch the waves crash into the cliff.

【5】From the last paragraph in the passage, we know ______.

A. the author’s friend agreed on his opinion about the castle.

B. the author doesn’t think there are many more dramatic places in the world.

C. the author’s friend pays no attention to the beautiful scenery.
