Sleep plays a major role in preparing the body for an alert and productive tomorrow. But s

leep is not a period of inactivity. The sleeping brain is highly active at various times during the night, performing numerous "house keeping tasks". These keep us alive and aid our ability to think and remember. Sleep also energizes the body and brain. Most people spend one-third of their lives sleeping and this will affect the other two-thirds in terms of alertness, energy, moods, body weight, perception, memory, thinking, reaction time, productivity and performance.

To limit sleep means our health and daytime potential are significantly reduced. So, good sleep strategies are essential in order to feel energized day after day. There is no strategy which works for everyone, so each person needs to experiment. One important thing is that you shouldn't worry too much if you go a few nights without a lot of sleep. It won't ruin your life. On any given night, one in four people can't sleep properly and everyone suffers from a lack of sleep at some time.

How does one minimize this problem？ It is really quite simple. The first thing you must do is to reduce stress as much as possible. Stress is part of everyday life and, while we can never be entirely without stress, it can be managed. This means taking control of your life and focusing on what is important. One sleeping strategy is to sit in a comfortable position, close your eyes and relax all your muscles, breathing easily through your nose. Continue this for ten to twenty minutes. This should help you reduce stress and sleep better. Or, you can try getting plenty of exercise, because a tired body is likely to sleep better.

According to the article, sleep is important because______.

A．it is a period of complete inactivity for the brain

B．it helps us understand what we have already achieved

C．it makes us more effective when we are awake

D．it helps us to lose weight

Oscar Hopefuls

On March 5th, 2006, actors, directors, producers and other filmmakers will gather in Hollywood, the center of the American film industry. They will receive Academy Awards for the best acting, directing, writing, editing, music and other work on movies released last year.

The winners will receive an award called an Oscar. This statue is shaped like a man. It is made of several metals covered with gold. The Oscar is only about 34 centimeters tall. It weighs less than 4 kilograms. But the award can be priceless to the person who receives it.

Winning an Oscar can mean becoming much more famous. It can mean getting offers to work in the best movies. It also can mean earning much more money.

Films Nominated for Best Motion Picture

Five films are nominated(提名)for best motion picture. They are "Brokeback Mountain," "Good Night, and Good Luck," "Crash," "Capote" and "Munich." The directors of these movies were also nominated for best director.

These five films are different from the ones that are often nominated for best picture. They are all realistic films for adults that deal with serious political or social issues. Four of the movies were mainly produced outside the major Hollywood movie studio system. They cost far less money to produce than most major Hollywood movies.

"Brokeback Mountain" received 8 nominations, the most of any movie this year. They include best director for Aug Lee and nominations for two actors and one actress in the film. "Brokeback Mountain" is the story of two young cowboys in the western state of Wyoming. They fall in love during the 1960s. They marry young women and have children. But the two men continue their secret relationship for 20 years.

Two of the other films received 6 nominations each. "Good Night, and Good Luck" is about the television newsman Edward R. Murrow in the 1950s. His broadcasts opposed the powerful Senator. Joseph McCarthy. George Clooney directed "Good Night, and Good Luck." He also wrote the screenplay with Grant Heslov. And Clooney acts in the movie. Clooney was also nominated as best actor in a supporting role in another movie, "Syriana." He plays a secret United States government agent in the Middle East.

The film "Crash" also received 6 nominations. Paul Haggis wrote and directed the movie. "Crash" is about racial tensions among a group of people in Los Angeles. These strangers meet during 36 hours and are involved in car crashes and crimes.

Bennett Miller directed "Capote," another nominee for best picture. It is a true story about the writer Truman Capote. It tells about his relationship with two men sentenced to be executed for killing a family in a small town in Kansas. Capote wrote about the killings in his famous book, "In Cold Blood."

The last nominee for best picture is "Munich," directed by Steven Spielberg. It is also based on true events. "Munich" deals with the killing of 11 Israeli athletes and coaches by Palestinian terrorists. That happened at the Olympic Games in Munich, Germany, in 1972. The movie is about Israeli agents and their efforts to find and kill the men responsible for the deaths.

Men Nominated for Best Leading Actor

Five men were nominated for the best performance by an actor in a leading role. Three of them play famous American men during the 1950s and 1960s. The three actors changed their appearances and voices to look and sound like the real people.

David Strathairn plays Edward R. Murrow in "Good Night, and Good Luck." Philip Seymour Hoffman plays Truman Capote in "Capote." And Joaquin Phoenix plays the famous country singer Johnny Cash in "Walk the Line."

Heath Ledger was nominated for his role as one of the gay cowboys in "Brokeback Mountain."
