　　College sports, especially football and basketball, are a big industry．Nationally rated teams and television broadcast rights can be worth millions of dollars．

　　This could be seen as a good deal all around．Colleges invest their players and, in return, the schools earn money and attention．The athletes often get free education, and they gain experience that might lead to a chance to play professionally．

　　But critics question the morality(道德)of a situation where college athletes may seem valued more as athletes than as college students．They say that some players who finish college never really learn anything except their sport．

　　The National Collegiate Athletic Association governs college sports in the United Strates．For the past few years, this organization has been increasing requirements for student athletes．That includes high school students who want to compete on division one teams-the top division college sports．

　　College athletes are required to make continual progress toward earning their degree．New reforms aim to punish division one schools that do not graduate enough of their athletes．

　　Yet finishing college is not always a goal for students who are good enough to play professionally．Is this short-team thinking? A sports career may not last very long, or lead to the wealth and fame that young players may dream of．

　　Funs of American football may remember the retired New York Jets player Joe Namath．Last weekend, he graduated from the University of Alabama．He left that school forty-two years ago to play for the Jets．Now he is sixty-four．But he went back--in part, he says, because he had promised his mother to finish his education．

(1)

Colleges show great interest in investing in their players because _________．
[　　]
A．	they can attract public attention
B．	they can gain much from it
C．	they want to become Division One colleges
D．	they want to get television broadcast rights

　　It is not unusual to see your desk-mate yawn(打哈欠)as he complains that he didn’t have a good sleep the night before．Many teens don’t get enough sleep because they have too much homework, which keeps them up at night．Some teens cannot sleep at night even when they want to．

　　Studies show that during your teenage years, the body’s biological clock is reset, telling you to sleep later at night and wake up later in the morning．

　　But changes in the body clock aren’t the only reason teens lose sleep．Lots of people have insomnis(失眠)．The most common cause of insomnia is stress．But all sorts of things can lead to insomnia．These include physical discomfort, emotional troubles and even sleeping environment．It’s common for everyone to have insomnia from time to time．But if it lasts for a month or more go and see a doctor．

　　Some people have a condition that causes stomach acid to move backward towards the chest．This produces the uncomfortable, burning feeling called heartburn．So even if the person doesn’t notice the feeling of heart burn because he is sleeping, he may feel tired the next day．

　　Most teens have nightmares sometimes．But, if they are frequent, a person’s sleep pattern can be seriously affected．The most common cause of nightmares is emotional problems, such as stress or anxiety．If you have them a lot, It’s a good idea to talk to a doctor．

　　Doctors encourage teens to make lifestyle changes to develop good sleeping habits．You probably know that coffee can keep you awake, but did you know that playing video games or watching TV does the same?

　　Internships are hard to find, and if you ever do one, you'll remember the experience．An internship can help you by supporting you passion, or it can encourage you to explore your field further or switch to another．This is part of the trial and error stage to get you on the right path．

　　Mao Heng stuck with her initial idea of going into law．She interned at a number of places during her college years．The first one was a secretary at a small law firm．“I did a lot of random stuff, nothing professional,” Mao recalls．

　　Though Wang did not follow the career path with Carrefour, she says she was really grateful to the company．“What I learned might sound very ordinary．But before that experience, I remember laughing at my elders whenever they told me：“Until you get out there in the real world, you really don't know how much you don't know．”
