四、閱讀測驗

If you’ve ever dreamed of following in the steps of Harry Potter and attending a school like Hogwarts, you may be in luck. A real-life wizard called Oberon Zell-Ravenheart is making it possible for anyone to learn about magic. This is because Oberon is the founder and headmaster of the Grey School of Wizardry. The Grey School is an online school with over 700 students around the world. Many of them are children, and Oberon calls these students “trainee Harry Potters.” As Hogwarts does, the Grey School teaches 16 different subjects, including Defense Against the Dark Arts. The chance to study magic sounds as fascinating as the school’s leader himself. The 72-year-old Oberon has a long grey beard, wears a large robe and hat, and carries a magic stick. He looks similar to the wizards we see in fictional tales. He is also married to a witch. What’s more, in the 1980s, he became famous for performing surgery on a goat so that it would look like a unicorn. Though the Grey School was set up long before Harry Potter became a hit around the world, the headmaster says the books have created a large amount of interest in his school. “In the magic community, I’m referred to as the real Dumbledore,” Oberon says. “Before Harry Potter, people just called me Merlin, or Gandalf.”

Since we were young, we’ve been told about the importance of getting a good night’s sleep. For some people, unfortunately, this is a very difficult thing to do. People who have trouble sleeping often toss and turn in bed for hours, even if they’ve been very tired during the day. Luckily, if you’re one of these people, there are a few simple steps you can take that should be able to make sleepless nights a thing of the past. If you have a hard time sleeping, regular exercise and a good diet can help solve that problem. The most important thing, though, is setting up a regular sleep schedule for yourself. Go to bed at around the same time every night and give yourself at least eight hours of quality sleeping time. You’ll also increase your chances of falling asleep quickly if you establish a soothing bedtime routine. About an hour before going to bed, do something relaxing, like reading a book, and make sure you turn off the TV. If you do all that, you will likely find yourself sleeping like a baby every night. That should make you happier at night and during the day as well, as you won’t be suffering from a lack of sleep.
