Some 30 million Americans suffer from insomnia. Here, our expert 'panel provides you with four different solutions for getting some rest:
Neil B. Kavey, the sleep specialist.
Try behavior changes and proper and regular use of medication. At night, keep away from bright light. In the morning, open the shades and go out for a walk, to' tell your brain, “This is the start of the day.” You can try OTC sleep aids, but if you suffer for more than three weeks, see a doctor. Drugs are safe when used properly, and better than the consequences of sleeplessness.
Gerald Lemole, the alternative source.
Stress often plays a role in insomnia, so try to change your reaction to it. Don't exercise or eat at the end of the day, and avoid or limit caffeine, alcohol and nicotine. Enjoying a warm bath can help. Also, try taking 1,000 mg of calcium (it may calm your muscles and nerves, helping you sleep).
Lisa Derosimo, the nutritionist.
Go to bed and get up at the same time daily. Keep your room dark and quiet, and remove distractions(no working in bed). Have a cup of herbal(药草) tea, such as chamomile(洋甘菊),to relax your body. And remember, people who eat a healthy diet of whole grains, fruits and vegetables, and low-fat protein feel better and sleep better.
Sandra McLanahan, the mind/body professor.
Lying in bed, starting from your legs and moving up to your head, tense your muscles once at a time, then release. And try alternate-nostril(鼻孔交换的) breathing. Exhale (呼气) through one nostril, using your fingers to close the opposite nostril. Breathe in and out; then switch back and forth. Both of the ways will help you feel more relaxed, like a rubber band after it's been stretched.
46. What does the underlined word “insomnia” mean
A.' Late stay.
B. Sleeplessness.
C. Tiredness.
D. Breath trouble.
47. Gerald Lemole thinks that .
. A. changing, your reaction to insomnia will help
B. insomnia is frequently caused by the effect of pressure
C. it's limiting eating that matters most
D. having 1,000 mg of caffeine will help you sleep
48. According to Lisa Derosimo, what results in a good sleep
A. Having a regular daily routine.
B. Taking various medicines.
C. Having a big meal before going to bed.
D. Viewing an online live broadcast in bed.
49. From the passage we can infer alternate-nostril breathing is a good way to .
A. breathe deeply
B. build your body
C. exercise nose
D. relax yourself
B
We live in a judgmental world where people are quick to point out the faults and imperfections of others yet seem unaware of their own. Some misguided people believe they have a natural duty to help you to be a better person by telling you what a failure you really are first and then offering suggestions as to how you can improve.
So what is the solution to criticism If you are the one forcing others to feel ashamed of themselves, STOP. Make a conscious decision that rather than focus on the negative aspect of a person's performance or attitudes, you'll offer helpful suggestions from the beginning. If I'm painting our living room and making a mess in doing so,
I would like my husband to say to me, “This is a tough job. Can I offer a suggestion that might make it easier for you ” rather than having him point' out what a careless painter. I am and then tell me how I should be doing it.
If you are on the receiving end of criticism, the “OK” response is a perfect solution. When someone comments negatively on a task you are doing or a personality issue, a natural response is to defend and attack. However, this approach is rarely effective as it puts both parties on the defensive. Instead, simply reply with “OK”. This brief one-word response acknowledges the other person's comment without agreeing with it or feeling necessary to engage in a debate about it.
It is important to remain emotionally attached to what the other person is saying, to listen without feeling, to be an objective observer. There is much that one can learn from a negative review. You can ask yourself: Did I make a mistake Could I have done better Did I give 100%of myself to the task at hand If so, how can I improve As for chronic (习惯性的) criticizers: It is important to set strict boundaries (界限) with them. Remove yourself from their presence when necessary.
In any event, one can learn to be “OK” with criticism and not allow it to negatively impact their life or relationship with the other party. Examine it for any potential truths, and then ' let it go and just be “OK”.
50. What does the author want to show by using the example of painting
A. Nobody is perfect.
B. The art of criticizing.
C. The value of suggestions.
D. The harm of criticizing.
51. What is the best way to respond when you are criticized by a person
A. Simply say “Thank you”.
B. Defend yourself.
C. Ignore the comment.
D. Just say “OK”.
'52. You are told to ask yourself some questions in Paragraph 4 so as to .
A. better present negative reviews.
B. learn from others' mistakes
C. take criticism objectively
D. have more confidence in yourself
53. How should you treat people who always criticize others according to the author's advice
A. Attack them sharply.
B. Talk to them politely.
C. Stay away from them.
D. Be open to their suggestions.
C
There are moments in life when you're in the middle of-some activity and think, “I love doing this. Love it!” Maybe it happens on the golf course, or camping, or when you're having dinner at a favorite restaurant. There are so many things to love about modern life.
I'm in love with 35 miles per hour.
It's a difficult kind of love to talk about in the present age of online short video and live streaming that constantly promote and glorify images of vehicles with roaring(轰鸣的) engines and smoking tires thundering across city streets in endless pursuit of adventure.
My personality has never had a fast-and-crazy side. I vividly recall going to Disneyland as a young teenager and being emotionally thrashed (鞭打) on the Matterhorn roller coaster ride. Other kids were howling (叫喊) with delight at the sharp turns and steep drops while I was mentally repeating the phrases “Please be over soon”
and “I don't want to die”.
Do not, however, assume I spend most of my road time trembling(颤抖) behind the steering wheel. Freeway fright is not my partner. After 45-plus years on the road, I can handle a vast range of traffic hardships. I've had my share of rigid joints and sweaty. palms but not one accident since a curving fender(挡泥板) incident in college. I go with the flow.
But in private situations, alone on some suburban avenue or country lane, I like to ease off the gas pedal, settle in at a smooth 35 mph.
It's a speed that allows me to appreciate my surroundings because the scenery doesn't flash by in a blur. There's also a significant safety factor because slowing down means I have more time to react and avoid holes, bouncing balls, wild animals, or other risks that may appear unexpectedly.
This is my way of pushing back against the constantly increasing pace of our high-intensity, on-demand society. Think of it as a car drive on a trail. When you load up. for a trip, you don't race across the countryside at a full dash. It's much nicer to travel smoothly and find pleasure in the journey.
54. The writer thinks her love of 35 miles per hour .
A. doesn't agree with the modern society
B. is too complex to be accepted by others
C. will become popular after being advertised online
D. will start a slow movement in society
55. The writer mentioned her experience in Disneyland to prove .
A. Disneyland is a place where kids enjoy the delight of modern life
B. she didn't brave the challenge brought by high speed
C. rides make children mentally, wild with joy
D. caution is golden rule to avoid accidents
56. According to the 5th Paragraph, the writer .
A. drove slowly behind other cars on freeway
B. couldn't handle an emergency in driving
C. drove as fast as others on the road
D. experienced a few traffic accidents
57. The best title for the passage may be .
A. My life in the slow lane B. My habit of driving on roads
C. My special love for racing D. My' slow' pace of life
D
After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between people of great achievements and people of average performance: curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding person who lacked either. And I have never known an average person who had both. The two belong together.
Together, these deep human urges count for much more than ambition. Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of various weights from the Leaning . Tower of Pisa and timed their fall to the ground. Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, “Why ”
Fortunately, curiosity and discontent don't have to be learned. We are born with them and need only
recapture them.
“The great man,” said Mencius (孟子),“is he who does not lose his childishness.” Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. We stop challenging the custom. We just follow the crowd. And the crowd desires only the calm and restful average. It encourages us to occupy(占据) our own little corner, to avoid foolish leaps in the dark and to be satisfied.
Most of us meet new people, and new ideas, with hesitation. But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance. We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake.
How should you start so as not to become discouraged I think of one friend who couldn't arrange flowers well enough to satisfy herself. She was curious about how the experts did it. Now she is one of the experts, writing books on flower arrangement.
One way to begin is to answer your own excuses. You don't have any special abilities Most people' don't;
there are only a few geniuses. You don't have any time That's good, because it's always the people with
no time who get things done. Harriet Stowe wrote parts of Uncle Tom's Cabin while cooking. You're too old Remember that Thomas B. Costain was 57whén he published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78..
However you start, remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you'll never be more alive than you are at this moment.
58. What does the author aim to do in writing Paragraph 1
A. Propose a definition.
B. Reach a conclusion.
C. Make a comparison.
D. Present an argument.
59. What does the example of Galileo tell us
A. Trial and error leads to the finding of truth.
B. Scientists tend to be curious and ambitious.
C. Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore.
D. Creativity results from challenging authority.
60. What can we learn from Paragraph 6 and 7
A. Lack of talent and time is no reason for taking no action.
B. Gaining success helps you become an expert.
C. The genius tends to get things done creatively.
D. You should remain modest when approaching perfection.
