271．An idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond.The concept is simple：help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.
In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit（追求）to be enjoyed by all，the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus，as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools.The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched（發(fā)起）the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book" project in 1998.Her original program used author visits，study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book，but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities，and even to Hong Kong.
In Chicago，the mayor（市長） appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book，One Chicago" program.As a result，reading clubs and neighborhood groups sprang up around the city.Across the US，stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character.
The only problem arose in New York，where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population.This may show that the idea works best in mediumsized cities or large towns，where a greater sense of unity（一致）can be achieved.Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point，putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than into discussion about a book itself.
Ultimately，as Nancy points out，the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book，but by how many people are enriched by the process，or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.

About 85 percent of Americans use an alarm clock to wake up in the mornings，according to sleep researcher Till Roennenber.And while there are no official numbers on snoozing（打盹），a quick survey of social media makes it clear that hitting the snooze button is a popular pastime.
As to how the snooze button will affect your day，scientists have mixed opinions.Some scientists think people who hit the snooze button in the mornings are actually clever，creative and happy while some said that hitting the snooze button will ruin your life，or at the very least your day. "I feel that hitting the snooze button has got to be one of the worst things that ever happened to human sleep，" researcher Jonathan Horowitz said. "The chances of you 'snoozing' and actually experiencing a meaningful rest are close to zero."
According to some sleep experts，when hitting the snooze button，you are in fact confusing your body and mind，and throwing yourself into a deep state of being sleepy.The body needs some time to wake up，so，when returning to what will be a light sleep for a brief period of time，you are putting your body back into a sleep mode before waking it again.At that point your body won't know what it wants，resulting in a sort of half awaken state.
If you really want to take advantage of an alarm clock，the key is to form a healthy sleep cycle.Focus your efforts on getting enough sleep each night and waking up at the same time each day so that when your alarm goes off you feel rested.
（1）What can we infer about hitting the snooze button from Paragraph 2？
A．People do it just for fun.
B．It is a common practice.
C．People take it seriously.

（2）What do some sleep experts think of hitting the snooze button？
A．It is meaningful in the long term.
B．It makes people become lazy.
C．It brings us a sense of satisfaction.
D．It affects our body and mind.
（3）What's the author's suggestion on getting the best out of alarms？
A．Forming a good sleep habit.
B．Trying to relax ourselves.
C．Making use of willpower.
D．Using an extra alarm.
（4）What is the best title for the text？
A．Ways to keep refreshed in the morning.
B．The snooze button and people's character.
C．Should you rely on the snooze button？
