    “In real life，the daily struggles between parents and children are about these small problems of an extra hour of sleep or an extra hour of TV show，and so on”said Avi Sadeh，psychology(心理學)professor at Tel Aviv University．Sadeh and his colleagues found an extra hour of sleep can make a big difference．The children who slept longer，although they woke up more frequently during the night，scored higher on tests，Sadeh reported in the March／April issue of journal Child Development．

    “Some studies suggested that lack of sleep as a child affects development into adulthood and it is more likely to develop their attention disorder when they grow older．”Sadeh said．

    In earlier studies，Sadeh’s team found that fourth graders slept an average of 8．2 hours and sixth graders slept an average of 7．7 hours．

    “Previous research has shown children in elementary school need at least nine hours of sleep a night on a regular basis，”said Carl Hunt，director of the National Center on Sleep Disorders Research in Bethesda，“and high―school―age children need somewhat less，”he said，adding that the results of insufficient(不足)sleep could be serious．

    “This is an important further discovery of what we already know，’’Hunt said about Sadeh’s research，adding that sleep is as important as nutrition and exercise to good health．

    “To put it into reality，”Hunt said，“parents should make sure they know when their children actually are going to sleep and their rooms are conducive to sleeping instead of to playing．’’

    The first and best of victories for a man is to conquer himself．“To be conquered by himself

 is，of all things，the most shameful，”says Plato．Serf―control is at the root of all the advantages．Let a man give in to his impulses(沖動)and feelings，and from that moment he gives up his moral freedom．

    A single angry word has lost many friends．When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger，he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself．If you are conscious of being angry，keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger．Many a person has dropped dead in great anger．Fits of anger bring fits of disease．“Whoever the gods would destroy，they first make him mad．”“Keep cool，”says Webster，“anger is not argument．”“Be calm in arguing，”says George Herbert，“for fierceness(暴怒)makes error a fault．”

    To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself．“Anger．”says Pythagoras，“begins with folly(愚蠢)and ends with regret．”You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers，not by the power of those which conquer him．

    Self―control is man’s last and greatest victory．

    If a man lacks self―control，he seems to lack everything．Without it he can have no patience，no power to govern himself；he can have no self―confidence，for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling．If he lacks self-control，the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking also．

49．What is the main idea of the passage?

    A．The importance of self―control．

    B．How to conquer oneself ?    

    C．The relation between a man’s moral freedom and his feelings．

    D．A man should keep cool．

    A．Self－confidence of a man．

    B．Self－control of a man．

    C．Great victory for a man．

    D．The power that conquers a man．

51．Which of the following is NOT true，according to the passage?

    A．The first and best of victories is for a man to conquer himself．

    B．You will make a small mistake serious if you don’t keep cool．

    C．You must measure a man’s strength by the power of the feelings which conquer him．

    D．Anger begins with folly and ends with regret．

52．Which of the following can’t help you avoid anger，according to the passage?

    A．Stay calm in arguing．
