After the first w eek, Harry's parents took him to hospital, but it took another week for the doctors to cure his attack. Harry, who is now back at school, described what happened to him.“When I began to hiccup, I drank a glass of water but that didn't do any good. That evening I had hic cups every four seconds. We tried everything to stop them. I held my breath and drank cold drinks. M y father even tried to give me a shock but that didn't work either.‖After a week of sleepless nights, he went to hospital. The doctors took an X-ray of his chest but they c ouldn't find anything wrong.“They gave me some medicine and my hiccups slowed down, but it was another week before the me dicine worked completely and my hiccups stopped.‖Harry was very lucky.

Looking a little tired, Yang stepped out of Shenzhou V, smiling and waving at th e waiting people. ―I feel very good.‖ Yang said to Premier Wen Jiabao on the phone. Yang said to a newspaper, ―For our motherland and me, this is a great moment.‖China’s launch of Shenzhou V shows a higher starting point. It has two special systems（系统） to protect the spaceman, but neither Russian rockets（火箭）nor American ones have.Yang didn’t know that he was chosen as China’s first spaceman until just before the launch. Although Yang was excited at the news, he still slept at 8p.m. as usual and was woken up at 8p.m. the next morn ing. Before the launch, Yang ate Chinese traditional food-dumplings. We all know that travelers usuall y eat them before going on a journey for good luck.A stamp Success of China First Manned Space Flight was issued（发行）on October 16, 2003, making China the third country to send a spaceman into outer space.

China issued the stamps to _________.A. leave them in spaceB. give them to Yang Liwei as a rewardC. celebrate the successD. give them to Russian and American spacemen.DExperts(专家) say that students usually need eight to ten hours’ sleep at night, but most Chinese students do not get enough sleep. Some Chinese parents are usually glad to see their children studying late. They will think their children work very hard, but not all parents are happy about this. Once a mother told us that every morning her 10-year-old boy put up one finger (手指) with his eyes still closed, begging(请求) for one more minute to sleep. Like thousands of students ― early birds‖ in China, he has to get u p before six every morning.A report shows that without a good night’s sleep, students seem to be weaker (虚弱) than they should be. Many students have fallen asleep during class at one time or another. Too mu ch homework is not the only reason why students stay up late. Some watch TV or play the computer g ames late into the night.Experts have ever said that the students should develop good study habits. So some clever students never study late, they are able to work well in class.( ) 16. The 10-year-old boy begged for more minute to sleep because__________.A. he didn’t have enough sleepB. it wasn’t time for him to get upC. he didn’t want to go to schoolD. he wanted his mother to wake him up ( )17.
