He was wearing three shirts, a jacket, two pairs of socks, a pair of shorts, and two pairs of jeans. He was carrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didnt have any other luggage. Tom needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight. He found Tony near the Air France counter. Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package.“Give this package to Jean-Paul at the airport in Paris. He will have a sign with your name on it. I think you can find him easily,” Tony said, ”You dont have any luggage, right?”“Only this backpack,” Tom answered. ”You said I could bring one carry-on bag.”“Thats right. One carry-on bag is fine. Have a good trip.”“Thanks.”Is Tom a criminal (罪犯)? Not at all. He is an air-courier(空中信使). And he paid only $110 for the round-trip ticket to Paris.

Not getting enough sleep can make us sick. Sleep and our immune（免疫）systemThe immune system protects the body from diseases and infections（传染）. Not getting enough sleep hurts this protective system. The Mayo Clinic is a research hospital in the United States. Its website explains that when we sleep our bodies produce proteins（蛋白质） that support sleep and help us fight infections. They add that infection-fighting antibodies（抗体） are reduced during periods when you dont get enough sleep. A new study from the University of Washington in the U. S. seems to confirm this. Dr. Nathaniel Watson was the lead writer of the study. Watson says his study shows that the immune system works best when the body gets enough sleep. For the study, Watson and his team studied 11 pairs of twins. This is an important difference from other sleep studies. Other research did not study twins. Researchers found that the twin who slept less had a weaker immune system. Watson says his study showed for the first time that a long-term lack（缺乏）of sleep shuts down parts of the immune system. He says parts that move white blood cells around the body are influenced. White blood cells fight infections in the body. Watsons study provides more evidence（证据）that sleep is important tooverall health. And sleep is especially important to immune health. The researchers published their findings in the magazine Sleep. How much sleep is enough?To stay in good health, experts at the Mayo Clinic say that adults should get 7 to 8 hours of sleep. Teenagers need 9 to 10 hours. And school-aged children may need more than 10 hours of sleep a night. Experts say our sleep becomes poor in our 30s. By the time we reach our 50s, the average person has lost 50 percent of their ability to have a restful sleep. These people also have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep through the night. From middle age on, they say these problems only get worse, and they can influence our health. Signs you may not be getting enough sleepYoure always hungry or youve gained weight. You have trouble making decisions. You have trouble remembering things. Your skin doesnt look good. You are having trouble seeing. （1）From the first three paragraphs we know that . A . it is a waste to spend about one-third of our lives asleepB . well become seriously ill if we dont have enough sleepC . enough sleep does good to infection-fighting antibodiesD . immune system is protected when people begin to sleep（2）From Watsons study, we know . A . enough sleep helps the immune system work wellB . the study of twins is a kind of common sleep studyC . twins need less sleep but have stronger immune systemD . sleeping for a long time is important to immune health（3）Which of the following is right according to the passage？ A . People dont need 7 to 8 hours of sleep a night in their fifties.B . The less you sleep every night，the more weight youll lose.C . Teenagers should get more than 10 hours of sleep a night.D .
