A. "Alexander", the Oscar winning film traces the short life but with adventure of the greatest leader, Alexander the Great (356-323 B.C.), who conquered (征服) much of the known world in his time, pushing the limits of Macedonian & Greek power to levels that his father could not have dreamed of.

The film "Ocean's Twelve", gathering lots of Hollywood stars, Julia Roberts, George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon Catherina Zeta Jones and etc, lists top this month.

D. "Friends", A Comedy Series, based on 6 young friends in Manhattan, struggling to find success and happiness in life, but it is never that straight forward, is it?

A young orphan bear is adopted by an adult male bear and must avoid hunters. It is almost made from the viewpoint of a bear. The closing scene is nothing but heart-warming and worth considering.

If December 26's tsunamis (海嘯) have taught us anything, it is that nature does not recognize national boundaries (界線). The same can be said of a lot of many other problems facing human beings. Global warming, for example, will affect the whole world. Similarly, diseases like AIDS or SARS can spread rapidly from country to country.

At no other time in human history has it been so urgent (迫切的) for humans to recognize that they need to learn to stick together. If they don’t, the chances are that they will soon find themselves alone. What will it take to get humans to take this truth seriously? Disaster seems to be a good way of doing this. The tsunamis, for example, have opened the hearts of countless numbers of people all over the world who offered their immediate help.

But why can't they come together to avoid a disaster that they know will occur if they do not act in time? One of the reasons is a lack of imagination. Most people can readily understand, for example, how rising global temperatures can melt the polar ice-cap, raise sea-levels, and greatly change global weather. But these changes will not occur overnight. And people find it difficult to imagine changes that will occur in stages, slowly, and over years. So they pay little attention to the problem. They hide their heads in the sand. They think that something, somehow, will come to make the problem disappear.

The Indian Ocean tsunami killed tens of thousands of people and left millions homeless. Diseases may kill many more if clean water supplies are not provided in time in the disaster areas.  But already the disaster has revealed (透露) some good things: One, there is more goodwill and kindness in the world than we are likely to believe. And two, the world is indeed capable of coming together as one in the face of the disaster. We pray that some of this spirit runs over into 2005. There are many disasters ― man-made, not natural ones ― that might be avoided if the world can learn to stick together.

Last night I had a terrible nightmare. I imagined that I was falling between the walls of a deep valley. I was screaming as

the ground rushed towards me. I was sure that I was going to die. Suddenly, I was awake, sweaty but amazingly alive. I

was angry with myself.

According to popular stories I am to blame for the bad dream. I had eaten a big piece of cheese before bedtime.

Cheese, says folk stories, causes nightmares. One minute I'm eating a piece of cheddar (a kind of cheese), the next I'm

falling through a canyon (峽谷).

It's not just folk stories that suggests Roquefort and Red Leicester (two types of cheese) give you nightmares. Scientists seem to agree. Cheese contains a substance that makes our bodies produce a chemical called serotonin.

Serotonin slows down the heart and so our blood slows down around our bodies. When we're awake, this can lead to headaches. When we're asleep this gives us strong dreams. Cheese is also hard to digest and may make us sleep badly. We are more likely to wake during deep sleep and remember any dreams or nightmares.

Don't think that removing cheese from your late night meals will stop the nightmares. Bananas, chocolate and tomatoes all have the same effect.

54. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

   A. A big piece of cheese is bad for our health.       B. Cheese produces a chemical called serotonin.

   C. We'd better take nothing before bedtime.          D. Bad dreams may have a cheese explanation.

55. "I'm falling through a canyon" suggests that the author is ______.

 A. falling into a deep valley                              B. taking part in an exciting sport

 C. dreaming a terrible dream                            D. trying to wake up suddenly

56. What would be the best title for the passage?

   A. Explanations for Dreams                               B. Food before Bedtime

   C. Nightmares and Diets                                   D. Sleep and Health
