Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The next building was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman living there, and I had never met her, yet I could see her sit by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.
After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn't wash her window. It really looks terrible.”
One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.
Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible(看得见的). Her window was clean!
Then_it_dawned_on_me. I had been criticizing(批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.
That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?
Since then, whenever I wanted to judge(评判) someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window？” I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.

A. the woman's window was dirty

3. It's clear that ________.
A. the writer had never met the woman before
B. the writer often washed the window
C. they both worked as cleaners
D. they lived in a small town
4. From the passage, we can learn that ________.
A. one shouldn't criticize others very often
B. one should often make his windows clean
C. one must judge himself before he judges others
D. one must look at others through his dirty windows

Today, people all over the world are moving out of small villages in the country to go and live in big, noisy cities. They are moving from the peaceful hills, mountains, fields, rivers and streams of the countryside to the busy world of streets, buildings, traffic and crowds. This movement from rural areas to urban areas has been going on for over two hundred years.
In many countries, the main reason why people come to live in towns and cities is work. After one or two large factories have been built in or near a town, people come to find work, and soon an industrial area begins to grow. There is usually a residential area nearby, where the factory workers can live. The families of these workers need schools, hospitals and shops, so more people come to live in the area to provide these services and a city grows.
In every major city in the world, there is a business district where the big companies have their main offices. In the United States, this area is usually in the city centre. It is here that you can see the huge skyscraper office blocks. The people who work here often travel a long way to work each day. Many of them live in the suburbs of the city, far away from the industrial area and the city centre. Some suburbs are very pleasant, with nice houses and big gardens. There are usually parks for children to play in and large department stores where you can buy all you need.
But what is the future of the big cities? Will they continue to get bigger? Perhaps not. Some major cities have actually become smaller in the last ten years, and it is quite possible that one day we will see people moving out of the major cities and back into smaller towns and villages.
1. Why do people move to live in cities or towns?
A. Because they can live more comfortably there.
B. Because they prefer a noisy life to a peaceful life.
C. Because they want to find work.
D. Because they are sure of having a better life there.
2. In a residential area, you can see ________.
A. rows of houses, schools and shops
B. many offices and factories
C. a lot of factories and farms
D. many houses with offices and factories
3. In the United States many people work in the centre of a big city ________.
A. while living on the faraway edge of the city
B. and live there
C. but live in another city
D. but live far away out of the city
4. We can infer that this movement from rural areas to urban areas ________.
A. has been going on for more than 2，000 years
B. will continue in the future
C. may not continue in the future
D. is sure to stop

We walked in the hospital so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn't even lift her eyes from the book. Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop. She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, “Very dirty floors.”
“Yes, I'm glad they've finally decided to clean them，” the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said, “But aren't you working late？”
Mum just pushed harder, each sweep(挥动) of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book.
After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum bowed politely to the nurse and said, “Thank you.”
Outside, Mum told me, “Dagmar is fine. No fever.”
“You saw her, Mum？”

I love camping. It's my favourite way to spent the summer vacation. Last year, my family and I went camping in the countryside. It was one of the most excited experiences I had never had. We slept in a tent and went for a long walk every day. We cook over a fire and the food always tasted wonderfully. For a whole week, I saw lovely mountain views or breathed fresh air. At the night, I heard the gentle wind blowing in the tree, and I felt so peaceful. It doesn't cost many to camp, and I believe it's the best way to get close nature and enjoy its beauty.

1．C　推理判断题。根据全文的意思，可知妈妈装扮成清洁工是去看望生病住院的女儿，因此C项正确。
2．B　细节理解题。根据妈妈装扮成清洁工，通过打扫卫生去探望住院的亲人以及最后一段内容，可知该医院有严格的探视制度。
3．A　推理判断题。根据最后一段的句子“‘Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well.”可以推断出Dagmar是作者、作者的妈妈和爸爸都关心的人，故应该是很亲密的家人，四个选项中只有A符合。
4．C　推理判断题。作者和妈妈去医院看望姐姐，但是因为医院的规定，妈妈只好装扮成清洁工进入病房探望，由此可知妈妈很聪明，故选C项。
Ⅲ.I love camping. It's my favourite way to spentspend the summer vacation. Last year, my family and I went camping in the countryside. It was one of the most excitedexciting experiences I had neverever had. We slept in a tent and went for a long walk every day. We cookcooked over a fire and the food always tasted wonderfullywonderful. For a whole week, I saw lovely mountain views orand breathed fresh air. At  night, I heard the gentle wind blowing in the treetrees, and I felt so peaceful. It doesn't cost manymuch to camp, and I believe it's the best way to get close ∧to nature and enjoy its beauty.
Ⅳ.One possible version：
Dear_aunt，
In the past few years，great changes have taken place in our hometown，where many tall buildings as well as new factories，schools and hospitals have been built. As the streets have been widened，it is very convenient for the traffic.
In the centre of the street, there is a beautiful park，and the flowers and trees by the roadside make our hometown more beautiful. Besides，many families have got cars of their own，and their life here has become rich and colourful. And it is now easier to keep in touch with friends all over the world by e-mails.
I_am_sure_you_will_be_surprised_at_the_changes_when_you_come_back.

单元总结提升 ?Module 4　A Social Survey—My Neighbourhood　 Module 4│ A Social Survey—My Neighbourhood单元话题导入 Being a good neighbour
You can pick up your friends, but you can't pick up your neighbours. If you are lucky, you have good neighbours. But some neighbours are not pleasant and can make your life miserable at times. Neighbours can play an important role in your community and life, and remember you are a neighbour, too. Then what is a neighbour?
　Module 4│ A Social Survey—My Neighbourhood A neighbour is someone who lives close by you, but “close” is relative(相对的). For the urban family, the neighbour is probably someone in the next apartment; however, for the rural family, the neighbour is a bit further away. But what's a good neighbour?
A good neighbour is friendly and considerate(体贴的). Though good neighbours may live close, they respect your space and privacy(隐私). Good neighbours may wave at you, stop to pet your dog and chat, and buy drinks for your children. Good neighbours take time to talk and smile. Module 4│ A Social Survey—My Neighbourhood Good neighbours help each other. For example, in my community we sometimes get a heavy snowfall. When this happens, younger people in the community go out and shovel(铲) it for people who are older or have medical problems that prevent them from shoveling. Also, people help each other when cars get stuck—a common situation during the winter months.
Most importantly, good neighbours are respectful. They consider the others who live around them. They avoid keeping others awake with loud parties and barking dogs. Module 4│ A Social Survey—My NeighbourhoodTask: Judge the following True (T) or False (F).
1．You can pick up friends as well as neighbours. (　　)
2．Good neighbours are willing to offer help when it's needed. (　　)
3．A neighbour only refers to the person who lives next door to you. (　　)
4．Considering others, good neighbours avoid making noises. (　　)FFTTPeriod One　Introduction & Reading and VocabularyPeriod OnePeriod One │ 课前自主预习 课前自主预习Task One：Fast Reading

现在完成时由“助动词(have/has)＋过去分词”构成， 其中have, has无实际意义， 只起构成时态的作用， 不可省略。
1．现在完成时的用法
(1)动作发生在过去某个不确定的时间， 但对现在有某种影响和结果， 常被just, already, yet 等副词修饰。如：
—Have you had lunch yet?
—Yes, I have. I've just had it.
“你(已经)吃午饭了吗？”
“是的，我吃了。我刚刚吃过。”(现在我不饿了)Period Two │ 语法归纳(2)表示某个动作开始于过去某个时刻， 一直延续到现在， 该动作刚刚结束或者可能还会继续下去， 常带有for 或since等表示一段时间的状语。如：
He has taught here since 1981.

(3)表示说话前发生过一次或多次的动作， 现在成为一种经验， 一般翻译为“过”， 常带有ever, never, twice, three times等时间状语。如：
I have been to Beijing twice. 我去过北京两次。Period Two │语法归纳
注意：这类句子的肯定句中谓语动词通常用延续性动词， 如live, work, keep, wait, stay, read, play, watch等。终止性动词由于所表示的动作不能持续， 所以不能与表示一段时间的时间状语连用。但在否定句中的终止性动词， 如leave, start, arrive, begin, stop, receive, finish, come, go, open等， 可以与表示一段时间的时间状语连用。如：
Monica has worked in this company for 5 years.
莫妮卡在这家公司工作5年了。Period Two │语法归纳2．现在完成时的时间状语
(1)现在完成时属于现在时范围， 故不能和过去的时间状语连用， 如 yesterday, last Sunday, in 1990, three years ago等。但是， 在强调动作产生的后果和影响时， 可以和一些表示不确定时间的时间状语连用。
①用副词already和yet。already一般用于肯定句中， yet一般用于否定句和疑问句中。如：
They haven't finished their homework yet.
他们还没有完成家庭作业。Period Two │语法归纳②用ever 和never。多用于否定句或疑问句中， 表示“曾经”或“从未”等。如：
Have you ever been to the Great Wall?
你曾经去过长城吗？
③用表示到说话为止的过去时间状语， 如just, before, up to now, in the past/last few years等。如：
He has been there three times in the last few years.
近几年他去过那里三次了。Period Two │语法归纳
④用包括“现在”在内的时间状语， 如now, today, this morning (month, year, term, etc.)等。
—Have you met him today?
—No, I haven't.
“今天你见过他吗？”
“不， 我没有。”
(2)现在完成时可以和带有since或for等表示“一段时间”的状语连用， 表示动作或状态从某一时刻开始， 一直持续到现在。如：
I haven't seen him for two years.
我两年没见他了。Period Two │语法归纳
但是， 像come, arrive, buy等终止性动词不能与表示“一段时间”的时间状语连用。若要用， 必须改为be, keep, have等延续性动词来表述。Period Two │语法归纳

?　单元语法?　单元写作[导读] 人人都渴望有好房子，人人都期望有好邻居。好邻居会尊重你的生活，会提供给你帮助，而且还会保护社区的环境。
①When buying or renting a house, everyone expects not only the good quality of the house but also the nice neighbours. However, different people have different standards of good neighbours. In my opinion, a good neighbour should be someone who respects your life, and is ready to help others and concerned(关心的) about the environment in the neighbourhood. 单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读 First of all, it is very important for your neighbour to respect your life. Just imagine that if you have a neighbour who is curious about you, and tries to know more about you by whatever means, what will you feel? What's more, he or she may also talk with others about your life. You will feel very uncomfortable(不舒服的) to have such kind of person in your neighbourhood and you may move as soon as possible.
②What you should consider next is that a good neighbour is always willing to give you a hand when you need him or her. For example, if you are not at home and someone suspect(可疑的) tries to unlock your door, your neighbour who sees it should call the police, and he or she will help you to protect your property(财产). 单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读 Finally, a good neighbour should be concerned about the environment, especially around your neighbourhood. He or she should throw all the rubbish in the garbage and keep the place clean, because a good environment can make people in it feel comfortable all the time.
【典句赏析】
①句意：当买房或租房时， 每个人都期望不但住好房子， 而且有好邻居。
赏析：When buying or renting a house是现在分词作状语， 与句子的主语everyone是逻辑上的主动关系。not only…but also…是一个固定短语， 意思是“不但……， 而且……”， 连接两个并列成分。单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读②句意：接下来你应该考虑的就是一个好邻居总是在你需要他/她的时候愿意伸出援助之手。
赏析：本句是一个主系表结构的句子， what 引导一个主语从句， 又在主语从句中作consider的宾语， 具有双重功能； that引导表语从句， 不充当句子成分。

We have two daughters: Kristen is seven years old and Kelly is four. Last Sunday evening, we invited some people home for dinner. I dressed them nicely for the party, and told them that their job was to join mommy in answering the door when the bell rang. Mommy would introduce them to the guests, and then they would take the guests' coats upstairs and put them on the bed in the second bedroom.
The guests arrived. I introduced my two daughters to each of them. The adults were nice and kind and said how lucky we were to have such good kids.
Each of the guests made a particular fuss over Kelly, the younger one, admiring her dress, her hair and her smile. They said she was a remarkable girl to be carrying coats upstairs at her age.
I thought to myself that we adults usually make_a_big_“to_do”_over the younger one because she's the one who seems more easily hurt. We do it with the best of intentions.
But we seldom think of how it might affect the other child. I was a little worried that Kristen would feel she was being outshined. I was about to serve dinner when I realized that she had been missing for twenty minutes. I ran upstairs and found her in the bedroom, crying.
I said, “What are you doing, my dear？”
She turned to me with a sad expression and said, “Mommy, why don't people like me the way they like my sister? Is it because I'm not pretty? Is that why they don't say nice things about me as much？”
I tried to explain to her, kissing and hugging her to make her feel better.
Now, whenever I visit a friend's home, I make it a point to speak to the elder child first.
1. The underlined expression “make a big ‘to do’ over” (Paragraph 4) means “________”.
A. show much concern about
B. have a special effect on
C. list jobs to be done for
D. do good things for
2. The guests praised Kelly for carrying coats upstairs because of her ________.
A. beautiful hair 　　　　　　B. pretty clothes
C. lovely smile D. young age
3. Kristen felt sad and cried because ________.
A. the guest gave her more coats to carry
B. she didn't look as pretty as Kelly
C. the guests praised her sister more than her
D. her mother didn't introduce her to the guests
4. We can conclude from the passage that ________.
A. parents should pay more attention to the elder children
B. the younger children are usually more easily hurt
C. people usually like the younger children more
D. adults should treat children equally

Ⅱ.【文章大意】 作者有两个女儿：一个七岁，一个四岁。客人们总是喜欢表扬小女儿，这使大女儿很受伤。这使作者意识到：我们不应该总是关注年纪小的孩子，也要考虑到大孩子的感受。
1．A　词义猜测题。联系上下文的内容可知，成年人总是担心年龄小的孩子受到伤害，而对年龄小的孩子关注多一些，因此A项正确。
2．D　推理判断题。根据第四段中“…because she's the one who seems more easily hurt. We do it with the best of intentions.”可知人们表扬Kelly, 是因为她年龄小，大人们担心她受到伤害。
3．C　细节理解题。由文章倒数第三段中“…‘…Is it because I'm not pretty? Is that why they don't say nice things about me as much？’”可知Kristen是因为客人们一直在赞扬妹妹，而她受到的赞扬少，所以她很伤心。
4．D　推理判断题。本文作者通过讲述自己两个女儿的故事，告诉我们应该平等对待孩子，不应该总是关注年龄小的孩子。
Ⅲ.【文章大意】 作者发现Joe总是微笑面对一切，自己也决定尝试着多对人微笑，并且惊讶地发现微笑虽然是一件很小的事情，但是能够鼓舞自己和周围的人。
1．C　根据首句可知，即使发生对他不利的情况他也感觉无关紧要。matter符合语境。
2．D　在银行办理业务一般要排队(in line)等候。order 命令；debt债务；hand 手；line队列。故选D项。
3．A　文章开头谈到每次看到Joe的时候他都在微笑着，所以此处填always。
4．B　微笑说明心情愉快，因此此处填happy。naughty 淘气的；happy快乐的；active 活跃的；humorous幽默的。
5．C　根据下句的描述可知，通过观察Joe与他人交往，作者注意到了一些别的事情。此处notice与前面的observe一致。decide 决定；judge判断；notice 注意到；consider考虑。
6．A　answer与前面的ask对应。问别人问题，且倾听他人的回答。
7．C　根据“If someone were hurting…”和kind words可知，他应是同情受到伤害的人。have sympathy for…对……同情。
8．D　Joe是一个有同情心的人，在别人受到伤害时总是帮助(help)别人。perform表演；attempt 尝试；bother 打扰；help帮助。
9. A　此处的experiment和前面的try相呼应。作者准备尝试着多微笑。experiment 实验；life 生活；project工程；programme项目。
10．C　根据上文“…I went to the grocery store.”可知，商店中的很多人应是彼此不认识的。meet 见面；touch触摸；know 知道；contact联系。
11．B　一些人甚至和“我”打招呼。greet符合语境。glare怒视；greet 问候；approach接近；escape逃跑。
12．C　根据上下文可知，作者举了一个孩子的例子。又根据下文“…he made a shy little attempt at a smile.”可知，他应是正在为难母亲。因此hard符合语境。spare 空闲的，多余的；long长的；hard 困难的；great伟大的。
13．A　根据下文“…he made a shy little attempt at a smile.”可知，小孩应是停止纠缠母亲。stop 停止；try 努力；keep 保持；enjoy享受。

15．A　此处表示感谢。thank 感谢；change 改变；encourage 鼓励；invite邀请。

18．B　根据上一段的描述可知，通过这次试验作者感到非常愉快，感觉很好。normal 正常的；great伟大的，好的；reasonable 合理的；professional专业的。
19．C　根据空格后“也许改变了什么”可知，前后构成转折关系，故选but。

A
I have a neighbour we call Happy. I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh(难听的) word to anyone or about anyone.
Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbours watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Ben's beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her backyard.
Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighbourhood over for an “all-day food fest”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didn't know what was about to take place.
By 9：00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra and squash. By 10：00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By 5：00 pm, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty(大量给予之物) of the day, already packaged and frozen. What a delightful gift!
Well, the point wasn't so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one another's company. None of it would have happened if it had not been for Happy and Ben's garden. Now they have a blog about gardening in case we decide to plant a garden. And I am so proud of my tomato plants!
1. We can infer that Happy and her husband Ben________．
A. don't like spending time with others
B. sometimes quarrel with each other
C. live on the food they grow in their garden
D. are a generous and warm-hearted couple
2. According to Paragraph 2, people wished they also had a garden so that ________．
A. they didn't have to spend so much money on food
B. they could grow vegetables and sell them at the market
C. they could invite their neighbours and hold parties in it
D. they could spend happy hours together with their families in it
3. For what purpose did Happy and Ben invite the neighbours to their garden?
A. To ask them to attend a birthday party.

The next time you are complaining about having to run a mile or two at school, be sure to think of 91-year-old Harriet Thompson, who not only completed the San Diego Rock N'Roll Marathon on May 31st, 2014, but also broke two records. What's even more impressive is that she accomplished the feat(壮举) while still recovering from burns on her legs caused by recent radiation treatments to help treat her skin cancer.
The oldest runner in this marathon as well as the fastest in the 90-to-94 year-old category(组别) completed the tough 26.2 mile race in 7：7：42, breaking the previous record of 8：53：08 set by Mavis Lindgren in 1997. While this is her first record, Harriet, who jogged at a steady pace, is no stranger to this competition. She took up the sport in 1999. She has participated in 15 of the last 16 marathons and only missed last year, because she was receiving treatment for an oral cancer, which she successfully beat.
Harriet says that she normally trains with a group. However, this year she decided to do it alone because she had a hard time keeping up, as most of them are about 60～70 years younger. Her daily routine consists of a mix of running, exercising on the machine and attending yoga classes. Before the marathon, she also took part in a few 5k and 8k runs, the last one of which she completed six days before the San Diego marathon, with her 90-year-old husband running alongside.
Harriet says she runs to keep healthy and raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma(淋巴癌)Society, which is close to her heart, due to her family's cancer history. Over the years, her efforts have raised over $90, 000 for the research organization. And she is not done yet! She plans to train harder and come back even stronger in 2015!
5. For what purpose did Harriet Thompson take up the sport?
A. Breaking the record of the marathon.
B. Proving that she was in excellent health.
C. Raising money for a medical organization.
D. Setting a good example for young people today.
6. What do we know about Harriet Thompson?
A. She participated in last year's marathon with an oral cancer.
B. She finished this year's marathon with her husband alongside.
C. She did nothing except running every day to win the competition.
D. She expects to do even better in the competition next year.
7. Which might be the best title for this text?
A. The 91-year-old woman sets a new marathon record
B. Stop complaining about running at school
C. Never too old to take part in sports
D. The 2014 San Diego Rock N'Roll Marathon

Tayka Hotel de Sal
Where：Tahua, Bolivia
How much：About $95 a night
Why it's cool：You've stayed at hotels made of brick or wood, but salt？That's something few can claim. Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of salt—including the beds [though you'll sleep on regular mattresses(床垫) and blankets]. The hotel sits on the Salar de Uyuni, a prehistoric dried-up lake which is the world's biggest salt flat. Builders use the salt from the 4, 633-square-mile flat to make the bricks, and glue them together with a paste(糊) of wet salt that hardens when it dries. When rain starts to dissolve the hotel, the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.
Green Magic Nature Resort
Where：Vythiri, India
How much：About $240 a night
Why it's cool：Taking a pulley(滑轮)-operated lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure. As you look out of your open window—there is no glass！You watch monkeys and birds in the rainforest canopy(罩篷). Later you might test your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part of the hotel, or just sit on your bamboo bed and read. You don't even have to come down for breakfast—the hotel will send it up on the pulley-drawn “elevator”．
Dog Bark Park Inn B&B
Where：Cottonwood, Idaho
How much：$92 a night
Why it's cool：This doghouse isn't just for the family pet. Sweet_Willy is a 30-foot-tall dog with guest rooms in his belly. Climb the wooden stairs beside his hind leg to enter the door in his side. You can relax in the main bedroom, go up a few steps of the loft(阁楼) in Willy's head, or hang out inside his nose.

Gamirasu Cave Hotel
Where：Ayvali, Turkey
How much：Between $130 and $475 a night
Why it's cool：This is caveman cool！Experience what it was like 5, 000 years ago, when people lived in these mountain caves formed by volcanic ash. But your stay will be much more modern. Bathrooms and electricity provide what you expect from a modern hotel, and the white volcanic ash, called tufa, keeps the rooms cool, about 65? in summer. (Don't worry—there is heat in winter.)

Improve your productivity (生产效率)
Researchers have found that most of our tiredness comes from our mental attitudes(心态). One of England's doctors, J. A. Hadfield, says, “__16__In fact, tiredness of completely physical origin(起因) is unusual.” So, remember—the key to improve productivity is learning to relax. Here are some suggestions for you.
Relax from time to time
__17__ It is said that if you want to master the art of relaxation, study the cat. Think about it. Have you ever seen a tired cat, or a cat with a nervous breakdown? You will probably avoid this kind of feeling if you learn to relax as the cat does.
__18__Remember that tensions(紧张状态) on the body produce aching shoulders and nervous feelings. Variety and movement keep you physically and mentally alive. The most interesting task can get boring if done for long periods of time, and the most comfortable chair isn't comfortable if the worker must sit in it for hours.
Think at the end of the day
__19__And if you are tired, is it because of the mental work you've done, or the way you have done it? Generally, if you feel extremely tired at the end of the day, it's quite likely been an inefficient(效率低的) day.
__20__Then you can work with a new attitude the next day.
A. Think of a cat.
B. Work less hard.
C. Work in a comfortable position.
D. This will help you form the habit of relaxing.
E. Make notes of what changes you need to make.
F. Ask yourself how tired you are at the end of the day.
G. The greater part of tiredness comes from mental attitudes.
