26、Healthy Sleep Tips

Below is some advice on how to sleep better.

Maintain (保持) a regular bed and wake time schedule. Go to bed at the same time every night. 【1】 Try not to break this routine (惯例) on weekends when it may be attractive to stay up late. As with your bedtime, try to maintain your regular wake time even on weekends.

【2】 When it’s time to sleep, make sure that your environment is dark. Even dim (昏暗的) lights — especially those from TV or computer screens — can confuse the body clock. Heavy curtains or shades can help block light from windows, or you can try an eye mask (眼罩) to cover your eyes. The temperature of your bedroom also affects sleep. A bedroom that is too hot or too cold can interfere with sleep quality.

Turn off your TV. Many people use the television to fall asleep or relax at the end of the day. 【3】 However, television actually stimulates (刺激) the mind, rather than relaxing it.

【4】 Exercise helps improve restful sleep if it is done several hours before you go to bed. Exercise can help you fall asleep faster and sleep more soundly — as long as it’s done at the right time. Try to finish exercising at least three hours before bed or work out earlier in the day.

Consult (咨询) your doctor. Use a sleep diary and talk to your doctor. Note what type of sleep problem is affecting your sleep or if you are sleepy when you wish to be awake. Try these tips and record your sleep and sleep-related activities in a sleep diary. 【5】

A．Exercise at the right time.

B．Change your sleeping position.

C．Keep your room dark and cool.

D．Choose a time when you normally feel tired.

E．You may even have a television in your bedroom.

F．If problems continue, discuss the sleep diary with your doctor.

G．Sleeping well is important for physical, mental and emotional health.

27、A star athlete at the college where I work recently stopped by my office. After committing a few unforced errors during a weekend match, she suffered severely by self-criticism.

This student, like many I teach, strongly believes she should be able to control the outcomes of her life by virtue of her hard work. In her mind, “Nothing can stop me but myself”. So when these students fall short of what they imagine they should accomplish, they are filled with self-blame, reasoning, “If my accomplishments are mine to control, my failures must be entirely my faults, too”, which makes it extremely difficult for them to move on.

We often owe young adults struggling with failure to their parents’ overprotection of them from discomfort. But there is another factor at play: a message transmitted by indulging (纵容的) parents who have falsely promised them that they can achieve anything if they are willing to work for it. However, the cruel reality of life is that you can do everything in your power — and still fail. Then what should be done to help?

Psychologists Luthar and Kumar urge parents and teachers to spend time helping students find purpose, or goals they genuinely love to pursue and that make an impact on the world, which may help them gain greater life satisfaction and become more psychologically mature. Besides, instead of allowing our kids to beat themselves up when things don’t go their way, we might all question a culture where one is considered lazy without full devotion. The point is to remind them that life has a way of sucker-punching (出其不意) us when we least expect it. It’s often the people who learn to say “stuff happens” who get up the fastest.

【1】What does the underlined phrase “by virtue of” in paragraph 2 mean?

A．in addition to

B．in spite of

C．by means of

D．for fear of

【2】The author believes that young adults find it hard to struggle with failure because __________.

A．they are not taught how to deal with difficulties

B．they are short of the ability to handle failure

C．they are under the protection of their parents

D．they are misled by their parents’ false message

【3】What did psychologists Luthar and Kumar urge parents and teachers to do?

A．To teach students how to avoid faults.

B．To lead students to set their truly loved goals.

C．To help students to discover a path to success.

D．To allow kids to blame themselves.

【4】What can be inferred from the passage?

A．Students don’t care about failure at all.

B．Students are sure to succeed if they try their best.

C．Students should bear all the failures on their own.

D．Students with positive attitudes can move on more easily.

28、One day last summer, I remembered something happened when I was young watching the boys and girls trying to catch butterflies（蝴蝶）. When I was a boy of 12 in South Carolina, something happened to me that cured（治愈，纠正）me forever of wanting to put any wild creature in a cage（笼子）.

We lived on the edge of a wood, and every evening at dusk a mockingbirds（知更鸟）with beautiful feather（羽毛）would come and rest in the trees and sing. No musician can sing more beautiful than the birds. I decided that I would catch a young bird and keep it in a cage and in that way I would have my own private（私人的）musician.

I finally succeeded in catching one and put it in a cage. At first, the bird flew above the cage, but eventually it settled down in its new home. I felt very pleased with myself and looked forward to some beautiful singing from my little musician.

I had left the cage out, and on the second day my new pet’s mother flew to the cage with food in her mouth. The baby bird ate everything she brought to it. I was pleased to see this. Certainly the mother knew better than I how to feed her baby.

The following morning when I went to see how my bird was doing, I discovered it on the floor of the cage, dead. I was shocked! What had happened! I had taken good care of my little bird.

Arthur Wayne, the famous ornithologist, happened to be visiting my father at the time, hearing me crying over the death of my bird, explained what had occurred. “A mother mockingbird, finding her young in a cage, will sometimes bring it poison berries（毒浆果）. She thinks it better for her young to die than to live in a cage.”

Never since then have I caught any living creature and put it in a cage. All living creatures have a right to live free.

【3】The underlined word “ornithologist” probably means________.

A．a religious（宗教的）person

B．a kind person

C．an expert（专家）in birds

D．a schoolmaster（校长）

【4】What is the most important lesson the writer learned from the incident?

A．Freedom is very valuable to all living things.

B．All birds put in a cage won’t live long.

C．You should keep the birds from their mother.

D．Be careful about food you give to baby birds.

29、Do you know how to play a game called “Musical Chairs”？ 【1】All you need are only some chairs, some people and some way of making music. You may use a piano or any other musical instrument, if someone can play it. You may use a tape recorder. 【2】

Put the chairs in a row. 【3】A better way is to have the chairs in one row with each chair facing in the opposite direction to the chair next to it.

The game is easy. When the music starts， the players walk round the chairs. Everyone goes in the same direction， of course，they should walk in time to the music. 【4】If the music is slow， they should walk slowly.

The person playing music cannot see the people in the game. When the music stops， the players try to sit on the chairs. If a person cannot find a chair to sit on， he drops out.【5】When the music stops again， one more player will be out.

At last, there will be two players and one chair. The one who sits on the chair when the music stops is the winner.

A．The chairs may be put in twos，back to back.

B．It is easy to play and most people enjoy it.

C．If ten people are playing musical chairs， you must begin with nine chairs

D．You can even use a radio.

E．The game “Musical Chairs” is not difficult to learn.

F．If the music is fast, they should walk quickly.

G．Then，before the music starts again， one chair must be taken away.
