18、d for the meals of the people next to them. Lakeland customer Torie Keene was paying for her food on Wednesday morning when she decided to pay for the meal of the car next to her.

25、and jars that hold food and drink allow us to see the contents. Glass is used to make eyeglasses, microscopes, telescopes, and many other extremely useful and necessary objects. Until the Second World War, most of the glass used for optical(光学的) instruments was imported from Europe. However, during
26、the war Americans could not get European glass, and they were forced to make their own. Therefore, new kinds of glasses were developed that had been previously unknown. These new effects were achieved by mixing other chemical elements with the sand. Some of these new glasses are very strong and can
27、resist many kinds of shocks. Legend has it that a very hard glass was invented by a Roman who showed his discovery to the Emperor. When the Emperor saw the glass he feared that it would become more valuable than gold and silver, making his treasure worthless. Therefore, he had the glassmaker killed,
28、 and the secret was not discovered again for hundreds of years. In the present century, safety glass was invented for use in modern cars and planes.

29、ter(散开) and injure people. Some glass of the type is strong enough to resist bullets(子弹).

32、fe as plastics. B. Because glass is cheap and easily obtainable.C. Because glass is not as strong and durable as plastics.D. Because glass is more and more widely used. DMarch 21 has been declared World Sleep Day, a time to recognize and celebrate the value of sleep. Many sleep experts hope it will
33、be a wake-up call. According to a 2013 poll (民意调查）by the National Sleep Foundation, nearly 4 in 5 Americans dont get as much sleep as they should during the workweek. On average, adults are thought to need at least eight hours of sleep a night, although some can manage with less and some wont do wel
34、l without more. But the survey found that, on workdays, only 21% of Americans actually get a full eight hours of sleep, and another 21% get less than six.To many of us, the thought of spending more time sleeping is, well, a big yawn. On the other hand, the thought of being smarter, thinner, healthie
35、r and more cheerful has a certain appeal. And those are just a few of the advantages that can be ours if we consistently get enough sleep, researchers say. Also on the plus side: Were likely to have better skin, better memories, better thinking, and, oh, yes, longer lives.“When you lose even one hou
36、r of sleep for any reason, it influences your performance the next day,” says Dr. Alon Avidan, director of the UCLA Sleep Disorders Center.A study published last year found the same to be true even of children. When kids aged 8 to 12 slept for just one hour less for four nights, they didnt function
37、as well during the day.But sleeping has an image problem. “We see napping or sleeping as lazy,” says Jennifer Vriend, a clinical psychologist in Ottawa, Canada, and the leading author of the study with children. “We put so much emphasis on diet, nutrition and exercise. Sleep is in the back seat.” In
38、 fact, she adds, no matter how much we work out, no matter how well we eat, we cant be in top physical shape unless we also get plenty of sleep.32. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?A. To wake up the sleepers. B. To serve as a morning call.C. To draw peoples attention. D. To declare

Sleeping has nothing to do with ones expectations.D. Spending more time on sleeping is a waste of time.34. What is implied from Jenn
40、ifer Vriend said in the last paragraph?A. Sleeping is only part of our life.B. Sleeping is an image problem.C. Lazy people tend to sleep long.D. People care little about sleeping. 35. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To talk about peoples sleeping problems. B. To provide an investigation result
