It's normal to wake briefly during the night. 1. But if you're waking up during the night and having trouble falling back asleep, the following tips may help.

Stay out of your head. The key to getting back to sleep is continuing to prepare your body for sleep, so remain in bed in a relaxed position. Hard as it may be, try not to stress over the fact that you're awake, because that very stress and anxiety encourage your body to stay awake. 2.

3. If you are finding it hard to fall back asleep, try a relaxation technique such as visualization (想象) or deep breathing, which can be done without even getting out of bed. Remind yourself that although they're not a replacement for sleep, rest and relaxation still help refresh your body.

Do a quiet, non?stimulating activity. If you've been awake for more than 15 minutes, try getting out of bed and doing a quiet, non?stimulating activity, such as reading a book. Keep the lights dim so as not to think that it's time to wake up. 4. A light snack might relax you, but be careful not to eat so much that your body begins to expect a meal at that time of the day.

5. If you wake during the night feeling anxious about something, make a brief note of it on paper and delay worrying about it until the next day when you are fresh and it will be easier to resolve.

A.Make relaxation your goal, not sleep.

B.Put off worries and troubles.

C.Use a flashlight to go to the bathroom at night.

D.In fact, a good sleeper won't even remember it.

E.Also avoid screens of any kind — computers, TVs, cellphones or iPads.

F.You'll be much more productive and creative after a good night's rest.

G.A good way to stay out of your head is to focus on the feeling of your body.

In 1943, when I was 4, my parents moved from Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, to Fairbanks, Alaska, where adventure was never very far away.

We arrived in the summer, just in time to enjoy the midnight sun. All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom's vegetable garden. Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off, so she didn't care much about my bedtime.

Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk. That left me in a mess. I usually managed to find some trouble to get into. Once I had a little fire going in the dirt basement of a hotel. I had tried to light a barrel (桶) of paint but couldn't really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when I made my exit, a crowd and the police were there to greet me. The policemen took my matches and drove me home.

Mom and Dad were occupied/busy in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me, and they did! I had a tour of the prison before Mom rescued me. 1 hadn't turned 5 yet.

As I entered kindergarten, the serious cold began to set in. Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail(栏杆) at school?

As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder (驾雪橇者), I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday. At the time I didn't realize what a superstar he was, but I do remember the ride well. I was wrapped heavily and well sheltered (保护) from the freezing and blowing weather.

In 1950, we moved back to Coeur d'Alene, but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbors of Alaska.

Is it possible that the sinking of the Titanic was caused by a ghost? A plot of the story below is true ... but did it really happen quite like this?

Our story begins not in the icy cold waters of the North Atlantic, but rather thousands of miles away in Egypt. It is here, perhaps, that we can find the start of the mystery (谜) of the Titanic, in the year 1910, in the great city of Cairo.

One day, a famous professor of Egyptian history called Douglas Murray was staying in Cairo, when he was contacted by an American adventurer.

The American had something unusual to offer Murray, something that was certain to thrill him: a beautiful ancient Egyptian mummy case, containing the mummy of an Egyptian queen. It was over 3,000 years old, but in beautiful condition — gold, with bright paintings on it. Murray was delighted with both the object and the asking?price. He gave the man a cheque immediately.

The cheque was never cashed. That evening the American adventurer died. For his part, Murray arranged to have the treasure sent back to Britain. However, it was not long before he learnt more about the beautiful mummy case: On the walls of the tomb in which it had been discovered, there were messages which warned of terrible consequences to anyone who broke into the tomb. Murray was disbelieving of these warnings until a few days later, when a gun he was holding exploded in his hand, shattering his arm. The arm had to be cut off.

After the accident, Murray decided to return to his homeland. On the return journey, two of his companions died mysteriously, and two servants who had handled the mummy also passed away. The now?terrified Murray decided he would get rid of the cursed case as soon as he arrived in London. A lady he knew named Janet Jones said she would like it, so he gave it to her. Shortly afterwards, Jones' mother died, and she herself caught a strange disease. She tried returning the mummy, but naturally Murray refused it. In the end, it was presented to the British Museum.

Even in the museum, the mummy apparently continued to cause strange events. A museum photographer died shortly after taking pictures of the new exhibit, and a manager also died for no apparent reason. In the end, the British Museum decided to get rid of the mummy too. They sold it to a collector in New York.

At the start of April 1912, arrangements for the transfer were complete, and the mummy began the journey to its new home. But the New Yorker never received the mummy or its case. For when the Titanic sank, one of the objects in its strong?room was the mummy case. Or so they say.

1.In Paragraph 5, the underlined word “cursed” is closest in meaning to ________.

A.forgotten B.uncommon

C.expensive D.unlucky

2.In what order did the following events occur?

a.The case was given to the British Museum.

b.Janet Jones caught a mysterious illness.

c.Murray's arm was cut off.

d.The mummy case was sold to an American.

e.A man who took a picture of the case died.

f.Warnings were written on the tomb's walls.

A.f,c,b,a,e,d B.c,f,b,a,e,d

C.d,f,b,c,a,e D.f,a,c,b,e,d

3.According to the passage, where is the Egyptian mummy now?

A.At the British Museum. B.In New York.

C.In Egypt. D.Under the sea.

4.What is the main purpose of this passage?

A.To entertain readers with a story of mystery.

B.To introduce an important historical event to readers.

C.To warn readers about the dangers of mummies' curses.

D.To inform readers about the true cause of the Titanic's sinking.

It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver's seat is another matter.

Road politeness is not only good manners, but a good sense. It takes the most cool?headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting. A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behavior of politeness is by no means enough. Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.

However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. A typical example is the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.

An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in a traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings. Unfortunately, modern drivers can't even learn to drive, let alone master the roadmanship (公路驾车技能). Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give?and?take (互谅互让) from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.

1.The passage mainly talks about ________.

A.traffic jams B.good manners

C.road politeness D.modern drivers

2.Troubles on the road are often caused by ________.

A.traffic jams

B.the behavior of the drivers

C.the great speed of modern life

D.terrible road conditions

3.According to the writer, a good driver should ________.

A.encourage children to cross the road whenever they want to

B.beat back when forced to face rude driving

C.be able to recognize politeness when he sees it

D.join in a traffic stream quickly however other people feel

4.It is not always right for drivers to ________.

A.master the roadmanship

B.neglect politeness when they see it

C.give a friendly nod in answer to an act of politeness

D.encourage old ladies to cross the road whenever and wherever they want to

Chinese consumers' crazy appetite for luxury goods and services appears unstoppable,with just 2 percent of the Chinese population responsible for one-third of the world's luxury items.

As China's economic miracle develops,the market opportunities for all sorts of luxury goods and services are increasing.Luxury consumption in China now extends ways beyond well-known car,clothing and jewelry brands.For example,the luxury jet market in China is the fastest-growing in the world,even outstripping that of the United States, with a market share of 25 percent.This trend appears to continue,with 20 to 30 percent growth expected in China, compared with only 2 to3 percent in the US.But more importantly,China's luxury jet market growth represents a major development in the private consumption of luxury items.

China's high-quality red wine market also provides evidence of the growth in private consumption of luxury goods.In 2013,China became the largest market for red wine in the world,even overtaking France,with l.86 billion bottles consumed in China last year.Over the past five years,China's red wine consumption has grown 136 percent.

According to my ongoing consumer research in this area while working at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing,public consumption of such expensive global luxury brands such as Prada and Armani is easily explained by the desire to "gain face" and publicly display social climbing through material possessions.On the other hand,it is "self-reward" that lies behind consumer motivation in this area.Chinese consumers who have experienced rapid financial and economic gains appear particularly prone to the need to reward themselves for their success.But this has little to do with "gaining face" and impressing others and much more to do with the need for personal contentment.

Finally,the growth in private luxury consumption in China is set to continue in part due to the maturity of the Chinese consumer and advancement of Chinese consumer culture generally.

1.What do you think the author would most probably be?

A. A news reporter. B. An accountant.

C. A professor. D. A conductor.

2.The underlined word "outstripping" in Paragraph 2 probably means" ".

A. falling far behind of B. going out of

C. going far ahead of D. keeping pace with

3.What can we learn from Paragraphs 2 and 3?

A. China's luxury jet market growth is only 2% to 3%.

B. France was once the largest market for red wine in the world before 2013.

C. The luxury jet market in the US shares 25%of the jet consumption in the world.

D. China's red wine consumption has increased to 1.86 billion bottles since 2013.

4.What can be the best title for the passage?

A. Future Private Luxury Consumption in China

B. Chinese Appetite for Luxury Goods and Services

C. The Potential Luxury Jet Market in China

D. The Maturity of the Chinese Consumers

On Punctuality

A punctual man is in the habit of doing everything at the proper time and is never late in keeping an appointment.

The unpunctual man, on the other hand, never does what he has to do at the proper time. 1. There is a proverb that says, “Time flies never to be recalled.” This is very true. 2. Time is more valuable than material things. In fact, time is life itself, and the unpunctual man is forever wasting and mismanaging his own valuable assets as well as others'. The unpunctual man is always complaining that he finds no time to answer letters, or to return calls, or to keep appointments promptly. 3. He knows that he can't get through his immense amount of work unless he faithfully keeps every appointment promptly and deals with every piece of work when it has to be attended to.

4._ If a person is invited to a dinner and arrives later than expected, he keeps all the other guests and the host waiting him alone. This is great disrespect.

5. Imagine how it would be if those who are entrusted with important tasks failed to be at their proper place at the appointed time. A man who is known to be habitually unpunctual is never trusted by his friends or his fellow men. And the unpunctual man is a source of annoyance both to others and to himself.

A.Failure to be punctual is a sign of disrespect towards others.

B.A lost thing may be found again, but lost time can never be regained.

C.He is always in a hurry and in the end loses both his time and his good name.

D.Unpunctuality is very harmful when it comes to doing one's duty.

E.Of these the former are the majority.

F.But the man who really has a great deal to do is very careful of his time and seldom complains of want of it.

G.Broadly speaking, humans can be divided into two classes.
