What’s the most important thing for athletes ...

What’s the most important thing for athletes (运动员) to win? Training hard? Having an excellent coach? Never giving up? Probably these are all very important, but according to a new book, the most important thing is getting enough sleep.

This book is Sleep to Win! by Dr. James Maas and Haley Davis. In this book, you can find out how getting more sleep helped　 fifteen-year-old Sarah Hughes win an Olympic gold medal. She said the biggest change she mad e in her training for the Olympics was getting more sleep. Sleep to Win! also gives examples of other professional athletes as well as student athletes becoming faster runners because of getting more sleep. For example, after Amber Way, a high school student in Michigan, changed her sleeping time from seven to over nine hours each night, her running speed increased a lot. She finally became the state champion (州冠军) after breaking five school records.

Dr. Haley Davis explained, “Why is sleeping so helpful? The reason is that teenagers whose bodies are still growing need to get about 9.25 hours of sleep each night. That’s about two hours more than most American teenagers are getting. Enough sleep helps the brain work properly. While teenagers are sleeping, their brains are preparing for the next day. A good night’s sleep can help them pay attention, make decisions and be creative.”

What's the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions hard work; others suggest knowledge, love and luck.

If you arrange(排列)the 26 English letters in order and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c. . . 26 for z, you can change an English word into a number. So hard work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98，meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96;love:12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47，a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money? It can't, either.

Then what else? Don't be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things,　 or your attitude. Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself : attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100，a full mark.

Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most time people hope for a better life. It is possible that they will have a better life if they change their attitudes. When you change your manner and became friendly toward others, you'll meet more smiling faces toward you. In the same way, if you take a positive attitude toward failure, you'll find it's also rewarding(有益的)though it has caused you losses(损失).

1.The writer thinks 　　　　 is the most important thing in a person's life.

A. hard work B. knowledge

C. money D. attitude

2.What is the mark of the word. "money" according to the passage?

A. 73. B. 72. C. 75. D. 62.

3.From the passage we can learn that 　　　　 .

A. different attitudes come from different courses of life

B. sometimes failure can bring you good if you take a positive attitude

C. math can solve every problem easily in our daily life

D. none of the English words except "attitude" is 100 or more
