阅读理解:

  Suppose we built a robot(机器人)to explore the planet Mars.We provide the robot with seeing detectors(探测器)to keep it away from danger.It is powered entirely by the sun.Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times?No.The robot would be using up energy at a time when it was not receiving any.So we would probably program it to stop its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next morning.

  According to the evolutionary(进化的)theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason.The theory does not deny(否认)that sleep provides some important restorative functions(恢复功能).It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous.However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into; it does not protect us from trouble that comes looking for us.So we sleep well when we are in a familiar, safe place, but we sleep lightly, if at all, when we fear that bears will nose into the tent.

  The evolutionary theory explains the differences in sleep among creatures.Why do eats, for instance, sleep so much, while horses sleep so little?Surely cats do not need five times as much repair and restoration as horses do.But cats can afford to have long periods of inactivity because they spend little time eating and are unlikely to be attacked while they sleep.Horses must spend almost all their waking hours eating, because what they eat is very low in energy value.Moreover, they cannot afford to sleep too long or too deeply, because their survival(生存)depends on their ability to run away from attackers.

restore his bodily functions

According to the author, we cannot sleep well when we ________.

[  ]

A.

are worrying about our safety

B.

C.

are in a tent

D.

are away from home

(4)

Cats sleep much more than horses do partly because cats ________.

[  ]

A.

need more time for restoration

B.

are unlikely to be attackers

C.

axe more active than homes when they are awake

D.

spend less time eating to get enough energy

(5)

Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?

  One day I bought a house.One day-what a day!–I became a father, and not too long after that I picked up the check for my own father.I thought then it was a milestone for me.One day, when I was a little older, I realized it was one for him, too, another milestone.
