Your teen is falling asleep in class
Teens have a busy morning schedule as they need to wake up and get moving very early in order to catch a bus and get to school by the required time. This means teens need to get their rest the night before or they will be too tired to learn anything at school. 1.
When a teen falls asleep in class, two things happen: he/she misses what is being taught and he/she loses the respect of the teacher. He/She may also receive a consequence from the school, depending on the classroom discipline policy. 2.
To prevent your teen from being sleepy in class, try these three tips:
* Set a time for “lights out” on school nights. This is never be any later than 10 p. m. and preferably 9 p.m. 3. Soft music can be on and used to help calm your teen.
* Help your teen develop a nighttime routine that involves activities that slow them down for the end of the day. 4. Turning off the computer and disconnecting from friends and the excitement of the day an hour before bedtime will also help your teen relax.
* 5. This will reinforce （增强）what it feels like to be rested and capable of accomplishing what he/she wants.
A. What’s worse, they may even fall asleep in class.
B. Taking a bath and reading are two activities that work well.
C. Set a good example and show him/her your love for learning.
D. Point out the positives after your teen has had a good night’s rest.
E. All of these things affect your teen’s academic success and can be avoided.
F. “Lights out” means the computer, television, lights and cell phone should be off.
G. While your teen keeps his/her goals in line with your expectations, he/she may have his/her own goals.

Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has.There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.
We experience this tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue(疲惫) and performance fatigue.In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult.And the longer we delay it,the more tired we feel.
Such start-up fatigue is very real,even if not actually physical,not something in our muscles and bones.The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first.
Years ago,I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors.Applying my own rule,I determined to write them in alphabetical(按字母顺序),never letting myself leave out a tough idea.And I always started the day's work with the difficult task of essay-writing.Experience proved that the rule works.
Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle.Though willing to get started,we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that,however hard we work,we fail again and again.In such a situation,I work as hard as I can-then let the unconscious take over.
When planning Encyclopaedia Britannica (《大英百科全书》),I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles.Nothing like this had ever been done before,and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked.My fatigue became almost unbearable.
One day,mentally exhausted,I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved.I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself,not with me.Relived,I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.
An hour later,I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind.In the weeks that followed,the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind provided correct at every step.Though I worked as hard as before,I felt no fatigue.Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.
Human beings,I believe must try to succeed.Success,then,means never feeling tired.
1.What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue?
A. Writing essays in strict order. B. Building up physical strength.
C. Leaving out the toughest ideas. D. Dealing with the hardest task first.
2.On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue?
A. Before starting a difficult task. B. When all the solutions fail.
C. If the job is rather boring. D. After finding a way out.
3.What could be the best title for the passage?
A. Success Is Built upon Failure B. How to Handle Performance Fatigue
C. Getting over Fatigue: A Way to Success D. Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health Problems

It was very cold on last Monday morning. I was walking on my way to school when I notice two street cleaners cleaning the street in the cold wind. Saw them working so hard on such a cold morning, I was deeply touching and made up my mind to do something for them.

In 1971 a young man who grew up very poor was traveling across the country, trying to make a new start for himself. Along the way he had completely run out of（用光了...） money and was forced to spend the night in his car. This continued until one morning, after a week of sleeping in his car, he walked nervously into a restaurant and ordered a big breakfast.
After eating his first good meal in weeks, he found himself lying to the waiter, telling him he had lost his wallet. The waiter, who was also the owner, walked behind the chair where the young man had been sitting. He bent down, and came up with a $20 bill that looked as if it had fallen on the floor and said, “Son, you must have dropped this,”the owner said. The young man couldn’t believe his luck! He quickly paid for the breakfast, left a tip, bought gas with the change, and headed West.
On the way out of town, he began to understand what the owner did. Maybe nobody dropped the money at all.“Maybe that fellow just knew I was in trouble and he helped me in a way that didn’t embarrass(使尴尬)me. So I just made a promise to help other people if I can.”
Later, he worked very hard and became a rich man. Now he lives near Kansas City. Each year he gives away thousands of dollars.

So what is rewilding?
Imagine our natural habitats growing instead of shrinking.Imagine species thriving,instead of declining.That's rewilding.Rewilding is ecological restoration and a little bit more.Rewilding offers hope for wildlife,humans and the planet.
Why is rewilding essential for Britain?
●Our ecosystems are broken.The places where you would expect wildlife to thrive have been reduced to wet deserts.The seabed has been damaged and stripped of its living creatures.
●Our wildlife is disappearing.Many wonderful British species have declined catastrophically over the past century.We've lost more of our large mammals than any European country except Ireland.
●We need keystone species.These vital species,including top predator（食肉动物）,drive ecological processes. Their loss in Britain and around the world has worsened our living systems.
●Nature looks after us.Good ecosystems can provide us with clean air and water,prevent flooding,store carbon, and attract visitors.Rewilding can leave the world in a better state than it is today.
What are challenges?
Our "rewilding britain" is a long-term project.Of course it has its challenges.Many of us feel indifferent,because we have got used to the lack of native forests.Many farmers oppose the idea.They thought it a crazy idea to bring back predators to the country because they would start killing farm animals.It takes time to educate them.Above all, we need money!So we need your help!
Make a donation
Help us bring back Jiving systems and restore wild nature in Britain!
With your help we can...
●Open up new opportunities for rewilding and push for change.
●Develop tools to educate,influence and spread the word.
Thanks for your support.
