But now a study has found it really does help people nod offif it is milked from a cow at night. Researchers have discovered that night milk has more melatonin(褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and less worried.In the study, mice were fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night by researchers from Seoul, South Korea.Those given night milk, which had 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less worried than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.While the effect of milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin medicine has been suggested to those who are trying to fall asleep at night.Studies have also showed that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because there is calcium(钙) in it, which helps people to relax.Milk is also sugarfree because it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will have on your body at night.（1） According to the passage, the mice fed with daytime milk were less active. （2） The study has been tested on mice for ten times. （3） People with sleeping problems have been advised to drink milk collected during the night by researchers. （4） Milk is good for sleep because there is meletonin and calcium in it. （5） The wrtier shows the main idea of the passage by giving examples. 16. （6分） (2019江西模拟) 阅读理解 If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to be blamed（责备）, and few of us know that it is just his own fault.Have you ever found that some people cant read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering.（1） If you want to have a good memory, you must_. A . practice itB . not give it enough chance to become strongC . have clever parentsD . use your arms and legs often（2） One has a bad memory because of _. A . his own faultB . his parents faultC . his teachers faultD . his strong arms and legs（3） Many people who cant read and write can remember things well because_. A . they have to rememberB . they cant write them downC . they practice rememberingD . they can remember things quickly（4） The writer tells us _. A . a good memory comes from practiceB . a good memory needs strong arms and legsC . parents can make us cleverD . to remember days, names and songs四、 口语应用（5分） (共1题；共5分)17. （5分） (2019桂林) 根据对话内容，从方框中选出最佳选项补全对话。 A.

She appeared in a series of short films where child actors were used to play adults. Temple gained valuable acting experience. A Fox Film songwriters attention was very attracted by the young star, and he introduced her to studio executives. She was signed to do her first film in 1933 at the age of 5.
