Crystal was a reporter for her school’s newspaper, The Real Story. She’d done several different kinds of stories before, but never anything like the story she was about to do. During an interview, the school nurse, Mrs. Jones, had told Crystal that the school had a secret basement. Crystal was eager to find out what was in the basement. It could be just about anything! So Crystal asked the newspaper’s advisor, Mr. Adair, if she could do a feature on the school’s basement. He agreed with her that basement might be a fascinating story, especially since a lot of people weren’t even aware that it existed.

Crystal got permission from the headmaster to go down into the basement as long as some teachers went with her. So Mr. Adair and Mrs. Jones accompanied Crystal when she went to explore the basement. The guard unlocked the basement door, and Crystal and the two teachers slowly descended the narrow staircase. When they reached the bottom of the stairs, Mrs. Jones turned on the light, and she, Mr. Adair, and Crystal began to look around.

Crystal soon discovered a large set of bookshelves with a collection of old dusty books on them. “What are those?” she wondered aloud. Neither of the two teachers knew, so Crystal made her way over to look more closely at the books. They turned out to be yearbooks from every year since the school opened. For almost an hour, Crystal, Mr. Adair, and Mrs. Jones paged slowly through the yearbooks.

At the start of his new term, Zhou Ziyu, a student from Heilongjiang, got some big news. Her school plans to delay (延迟) its start time to 8 a.m. She was quite happy.　　　

Zhou used to get up at 6 a.m., but would study until 10 or 11 p.m. the night before. She worked very hard. Her school asked students to arrive at 6:30 a.m. in summer and 7 a.m. in winter. She didn't get enough sleep. “ I often felt sleepy in class. But if my school plans to delay the start time, I'll be very glad.” Zhou said.

In fact, all of the schools in Heilongjiang plan to change their start time. Primary and middle schools will expect students to arrive at 8 a.m. or later. The change will help more students get enough sleep. In general, most Chinese middle school students have to arrive at school at around 7 a.m. Students have to get up at 6 a.m. or even earlier if they live far from school. While they often say up late in the evening, they can get the nine hours of sleep that they need to stay healthy.

In the future, more places might carry out similar policies. However, some students still worry about the rule. They prefer to have some study time before class begins in the morning. They think this is the best time o study and remember things.

1.How aid Zhou Ziyu feel when she heard the news about delaying the start time of school?

A.Excited. B.Sad C.Worried D.Disappointed.

2.Why does the government carry out such a policy?

A.Because they hope the students will study before classes begin.

B.Because they hope the students will eat well in the morning.

C.Because they hope the students will get enough time to sleep.

D.Because they hope the students will play happily.

3.According to the passage, how many hours do the students need to sleep in one night?

A.Six. B.Seven. C.Eight. D.Nine.

4.Why do some students still worry about the rule?

A.Because they want to have some time to study before class

B.Because they think it's hard to carry out.

C.Because they will never get enough sleep.

D.Because their parents won't allow them to sleep.
