A .Good for our imagination.
B. What do experiments show?
C. A difficult choice.
D. A good way to improve memories.
E.Valuable advice.
1. It's late at night and you have an important exam in the morning. You're sitting with your notes and books and you're beginning to feel tired. Should you listen to your mother's advice and go to bed? Or should you stay up all night and try to learn?
2. Well, scientists say that our mothers are probably right — it’s best to go to bed early before a big exam. Last year in Germany scientists looked into the effects of sleep on university students. They found out that students who had at least four hours of sleep did better in exams. It also turned out that the students who had a lot of sleep had better scores in IQ tests. So why is sleep good for our brains?
3. First of all, scientists believe that after a hard day of thinking, our memories are very messy. Sleep helps to tidy up our thoughts and memories and to put everything in the right place again. Because of this it’s easier to remember facts clearly, which of course, is important in exams.
4. Scientists believe that we are more creative after sleep too. Keith Richards, guitarist with the Rolling Stones, came up with the melody for Satisfaction, their biggest hit, as he was taking a nap in a London hotel room. The Irish writer Bram Stoker also got the idea for his masterpiece Dracula, the classic horror story, while he was sleeping. He ate crabs late at night before going to bed, had some strange nightmares and kept on waking up!
5. So, take my advice – do you want to remember more in your exam tomorrow? The answer is, simple - go to bed early!

Dear Sam,
Tim writing to you from our new address. We're still unpacking — there’s so much to do. Mam and Dad are very pleased because they think the new house is (large) and (comfortable) than our old one. Mum is already saying that it’s (attractive) house in the neighbourhood. But as you know, my parents can be terrible snobs sometimes! I'm not so sure that the move was a good decision. The garden’s much (small) than our old one. We're a little (near) to the city centre, but it’s (far) from school, so I get home (late) in the evenings and I have to get up (early) in the momings too! I hope we can still see each other. I know my parents didn’t get on very well with yours, but I really like you. You're one of the (friendly) people I know. Please write.
Love,
Jacky S.
