    A Good Night's Steep

    Sleep plays a vital role in good health and well-being throughout your life.

    While you're sleeping, your brain is forming new pathways to help you learn and remember information. Although we all know the importance of getting a good night's sleep, not all of us know the best way of getting it. A sleep expert, Phil Atherton, gave some top tips for getting the most out of the night, which will leave you ready for action in the morning.

    According to Phil Atherton, not eating a large meal before bedtime is important for getting a good night's sleep. The time difference between eating and sleeping should be at least three hours. So you'd better avoid eating any food three hours before bed, as it will lower your blood sugar during sleep and help minimize damage from too much sugar floating around.

    It's also important to find ways to prepare your body for sleep. You can follow a routine like trying not to expose yourself to too much artificial light within 1 hour before bed, as your brain uses light to help set internal "body clock". Although it might seem unnatural to schedule your sleep, the purpose is to send a signal to your body and mind that it's time to sleep.

    Another way to prepare your body for sleep is to get into a relaxed state by taking a bath or listening to soft music. Both of them will help to take the mind off the daytime pressures.

    Having a suitable bed, especially a suitable mattress (床垫), is necessary for a good night's sleep. Sleep is a personalized activity, and we all adopt different sleeping positions. Finding the mattress that suits you will reduce back pains that can result from a poor sleeping position. The bed should be four to six inches longer than its tallest user, allowing for space to move

    around.

    The recent research is pretty clear that a good night's sleep in a major component of good health. Since the start of the 21st century, studies have linked a lack of sleep to many diseases, such as diabetes and obesity. Taking action now will lead to long-term benefits for you and those around you.

    1.What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?

    A. When to start a sound sleep.

    B. How to get a good night's sleep.

    C. What to do with sleep problems

    D. Why to form a good habit of sleeping.

    2. According to the author, before going to sleep, you'd better __________.

    A. free yourself from tension

    B. check your blood sugar

    C. relieve your pain in the back

    D. record your biological clock

    3. What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refer to?

    A. Not eating food. B. Taking a meal.

    C. Not sleeping well. D. Having a good sleep.

    4. Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?

    CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Sub-point (次要点) C: Conclusion

    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    I’m 30 years old, and there are several things that life has taught me that I want to share with you．Here are the 4 lessons that life has taught me in the past 30 years．

    1.Take care of your body

    Life is “unfairly” biased (偏向的) towards people who “look good,” like it or not. So it’s important that you do all that is in your power to look your best． 1. You will live longer, and you will live happier, if you take care of your body; you may even get promoted faster on your job. Remember that your health is really your greatest wealth.

    2. 2.

    No one taught me to save when I was growing up; no one told me the importance of saving. Fortunately I was able to learn the value of saving through reading great books like “The Millionaire Next Door”. What I want to teach others is to save at least twenty percent of your income. If you are to be wealthy, you must not just earn a lot, you must save a lot．

    3.Think in the long term

    In high school I was thinking about college, in college I was thinking about life after college. I’m designing my life and I’m making decisions today that will enable me to live the life I desire when I’m in my 40’s, 50’s and 60’s. You have to think in the long term; you have to see the “big picture”. 3.

    4.Realize the power of focus

    Focus, focus, focus… 4. If you fail in this lifetime, you will fail because of broken focus. If you focus on the goals that are most important to you, you will achieve them. The problem is that there are so many distractions. 5. Winners decide to major on majors, and they even let important things slip, because they just focus on achieving what is critical to their goals.

    A．The importance of saving.

    B．If you plan your future properly, you will live into your plans.

    C．Save your money.

    D．Nothing is more important than focus．

    E．What separates the winners from the losers is that the winners learn to focus on their goals．

    F．I mean dressing nicely, working out and eating right．

    G．It’s important that you pursue relationships with individuals who are good first．

    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    Today our life and work rarely feel light or pleasant. Instead, the whole experience of being alive begins to melt into one enormous obligation(责任). 1.____

    We say this to one another with great pride. 2. We are unavailable to our friends and family, unable to find time for the sunset, to finish off our obligations without time for a single mindful breath. This seems to have become the model of a successful life.

    Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We lose the relaxation that gives us help. 3. Poisoned by the belief that good things come only through tireless effort, we never truly rest. This is not the world we dreamed of when we were young. But how did we get so terribly rushed in a world filled with work and responsibility, yet it lacks joy and delight?

    4. Sunday is the time to enjoy and celebrate what is beautiful and good, time to sing songs, give thanks, and walk. It is time to be refreshed as we stop our work, our chores and our important projects.

    Sunday is more than the absence of work. Many of us, in our desperate drive to be successful and care for our many responsibilities, feel terrible guilty when we take time to rest. 5. Many of us still recall when, not long ago, shops and offices were closed on Sundays. Those quiet Sunday afternoons are deep in our cultural memory.

    A. We also miss the quiet that gives us wisdom.

    B. All work and no play make Jack a dull boy.

    C. It becomes the standard greeting everywhere, “I am so busy.”

    D. We work through day and night, feeling rather exhausted.

    E. But the Sunday has proven its wisdom over the ages.

    F. The reason is simple: we have forgotten the Sunday.

    G. The busier we are, the more important we seem to ourselves and, we imagine, to others.

    Polluted airborne particles(大气悬浮颗粒) kill 7 million people a year, reports the World Health Organization.

    That news may not come as a surprise to anyone who has seen images of chimneys in Beijing, Delhi or Mexico. But those factories－or even the jammed roadways of modern cities－are not the biggest killer. Each year, some 4.3 million people die earlier than they should because of polluted air inside their homes, says the WHO.

    What's causing the air inside people's homes to be so poisonous that it kills around 11,000 people a day? Stoves. “Having an open fire in your kitchen is like burning 400 cigarettes an hour.” says Kirk Smith, a professor at the University of California at Berkeley, whose research suggests that household air pollution from cooking killed between 3.5 million and 4 million people in 2013.

    Not all stoves cause this kind of harm. The ones Smith's talking about are those that the 3 billion people in the developing world use for heat and cooking, which burn solid fuels such as wood, coal, or crop waste instead of gas. The smoke from those fires produces harmful fine particles and carbon monoxide into homes. Poor ventilation then prevents that smoke from escaping, raising fine particle levels 100 times higher than the limits that the WHO considers acceptable.

    Breathing this air day in day out eventually causes a lot of diseases: more than a third of the 4.3 million die of a stroke, while a quarter die of heart disease. And around one-third of annual lung disease deaths worldwide are due to waste from coal stoves.

    Exposure tends to be extremely harmful for the people who spend the most time around the fire－usually women and young children. In fact, the WHO reports that household air pollution almost doubles the risk for childhood lung disease.

    1.According to Kirk Smith's research,________.

    A. factories are the biggest killer worldwide nowadays

    B. burning 400 cigarettes an hour is extremely dangerous

    C. household air pollution from cooking is surprisingly harmful

    D. some 4.3 million people die earlier each year than they should

    2.What should be the deadly killer in a household kitchen?

    A. Solid fuels. B. Coal stoves.

    C. Poor gas. D. Cooking smoke.

    3. The underlined word “ventilation” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.

    A. airing B. cooking C. burning D. cooling

    4.The author intends to tell people ________.

    A. how to avoid polluted air in their homes

    B. to stop cooking in the household kitchen

    C. to guard against household pollution from cooking

    D. how to prevent childhood lung diseases in household
