How to Sleep Better

If you’re having trouble getting good sleep through the night (turning, waking up more than once, for example), this text will tell you what you can do to ensure a peaceful night’s sleep.

1. Get up on time. Changing your sleeping time by more than an hour can severely disturb (干扰) your sleep quality. 1. For example, if you normally wake up at 6 am on weekdays to get to work, you might go to bed around 10 pm, because that’s when you start to feel sleepy, and it’s also a good time to ensure 8 hours of sleep. If, on the weekend, you sleep until 9 am, you probably won’t be able to fall asleep that night until 1 am.

2. 2. Wait at least three hours after dinner before going to sleep. Digestion(消化) slows down while asleep, and a full stomach may interrupt(打搅) sleep. Similarly, you should avoid going to bed on an empty stomach, as a completely empty stomach may equally disturb your sleeping patterns(模式).

3. 3. Exposure(暴露) to light during the time when you’re supposed to be sleeping can disrupt(扰乱) your body’s internal clock. Turn your light off, or use a very dim night light. 4.They include windows, LED clocks, computer lights and cable boxes.

4. Change your sleeping position. You may think that it’s impossible to control what position you sleep in since you don’t fully understand what you are doing, but it is possible and it can make a big difference. 5.

A. Try to avoid all sources of light.

B. Keep the room as dark as possible.

C. Make note of unusual circumstances (状况).

D. Be mindful of what you eat or drink before bed.

E. Sleep is considered to be adequate only when there is no daytime sleepiness.

F. In other words, sudden change of sleeping time will affect your “biological(生物的) clock”.

G. If you wake up in the middle of the night, make an effort to have a comfortable position.

    If it really is what’s on the inside that counts, then a lot of thin people might be in trouble.

Some doctors now think that the internal fat surrounding important organs like the heart liver could be as dangerous as the external fat which can be noticed more easily.

“Being thin doesn’t surely mean you are not fat”, said Dr Jimmy Bell at Imperial College.

Since 1994, Bell and his team have scanned nearly 800 people with MRI machines to create “fat maps” showing where people store fat.

According to the result, people who keep their weight through diet rather than exercise are likely to have major deposits of internal fat, even if they are slim.

Even people with normal Body Mass Index scores can have surprising levels of fat deposits inside. Of the women, as many as 45 percent of those with normal BMI scores (20 to 25) actually had too high levels of internal fat. Among men, the percentage was nearly 60 percent.

According to Bell, people who are fat on the inside are actually on the edge of being fat. They eat too many fatty and sugary foods, but they are not eating enough to be fat. Scientists believe we naturally store fat around the belly first, but at some point, the body may start storing it elsewhere.

Doctors are unsure about the exact dangers of internal fat, but some think it has something to do with heart disease and diabetes (糖尿病). They want to prove that internal fat damages the body's communication systems.

The good news is that internal fat can be easily burned off through exercise or even by improving your diet. “If you want to be healthy, there is no shortcut. Exercise has to be an important part of your lifestyle,” Bell said.

1.What is this passage mainly about?

A.Thin people may be fat inside. B.Internal fat is of no importance.

C.Internal fat leads to many diseases. D.Thin people don't have diabetes.

2.Doctors have found _____.

A.the exact dangers of internal fat

B.being slim is not dangerous at all

C.internal fat is the cause of heart disease

D.being slim doesn’t mean you are not fat inside

3.From the last paragraph, we can find that _____.

A.internal fat leading to disease has been proved

B.thin people usually have internal fat even if they are slim

C.it is easier to burn off internal fat than external fat

D.exercise plays an important role in people’s life for keeping healthy

4.The underlined part “shortcut” in the last paragraph means _____.

A.a long road B.an easy way

C.a clear difference D.a short distance

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

We lived on the edge of a wood, and every evening the mockingbirds 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 would have my own private musician.

I finally succeeded in catching one and put it in a cage. At first, the bird flew about 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 tiny 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 about 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 famousornithologist, happened to be visiting my father at the time. Hearing me crying over the death of my bird, he explained what had occurred. “A mother mockingbird, finding her young in a cage, will sometimes bring it poisonous (有毒的) berries(干果). She thinks it better for her young to die than to live in 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.

1.Why did the writer catch a mockingbird when he was a boy of 12?

A.He had just got a new cage.

B.He liked its beautiful feather.

C.He wanted a pet for a companion.

D.He wanted it to sing for him.

2.The mockingbird died because it ______.

A.drank the poisonous water by mistake

B.was frightened to death

C.ate the poisonous food its mother gave it

D.refused to eat anything

3.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.
