In many countries of the world people do what is called house sitting. It means that if owners of the house are going away, they want someone to come into their home and look after the house and maybe pets while they are away.

In Australia, many people travel. After people retire, they might buy a van(房車) and travel all over the country. 1._______________

Also, quite a few people have swimming pools in their back yard and they need cleaning. 2. _______________ I feel it is a great way of seeing the country, because you go and stay in a new city, get to meet new people, and have time to go sightseeing in a new area.

Could your cellphone give you cancer? Whether it could or not，some people are worrying about the possibility that phones，powerlines and wi-fi could be responsible for a range of illnesses，from rashes to brain tumors.

For example，Camilla Rees，48，a former investment banker in the US，moved out of her apartment in San Francisco because of the radiation coming from next door．Rees told the Los Angeles Times that when her neighbors moved in and installed a wi-fi router she lost her ability to think clearly．“I would wake up dizzy in the morning．I’d fall to the floor．I had to leave to escape that nightmare，” she saiD． Since then，she’s been on a campaign against low-level electromagnetic fields，or EMFs（低頻電磁場）.

And she’s not alone．Millions of people say they suffer from headaches，depression，nausea and rashes when they’re too close to cellphones or other sources of EMFs.

Although the World Health Organization has officially declared that EMFs seem to pose little threat，governments are still concerneD． In fact，last April，the European Parliament called for countries to take steps to reduce exposure to EMFs．The city of San Francisco and the state of Maine are currently considering requiring cancer-warning labels on cellphones.

If these fears are reasonable，then perhaps we should all be worried about the amount of time we spend talking on our phones or plugging into wi-fi hotpots.

Some say there is evidence to support the growing anxieties．David Carpenter，a professor of environmental health sciences at the University at Albany，in New York，thinks there’s a greater than 95% chance that power lines can cause childhood leukemiA． Also there’s a greater than 90% chance that cellphones can cause brain tumors.

But others believe these concerns are unreasonable paranoia (猜疑)．Dr．Martha Linet，the head of radiation epidemiology at the US National Cancer Institute，has looked at the same research as Carpenter but has reached a different conclusion．“I don’t support warning labels for cellphones，” said Linet．“We don’t have the evidence that there’s much danger.”

Studies so far suggest a weak connection between EMFs and illness — so weak that it might not exist at all．A multinational investigation of cellphones and brain cancer，in 13 countries outside the US，has been underway for several years．It’s funded in part by the European Union，in part by a cellphone industry group．

According to Robert Park，a professor of physics at the University of Maryland in the US，the magnetic waves aren’t nearly powerful enough to break apart DNA，which is now known threats，such as UV rays and X-rays，cause cancer.

Perhaps it’s just psychological．Some experts find that the electro-sensitivity syndrome seems to be similar to chemical sensitivity syndrome，which is a condition that’s considered to be psychological.

Whether EMFs are harmful or not，a break in the countryside，without the cellphone，would probably be good for all of us.

You're not doomed to toss and turn every night. Although you might not be able to control all of the factors that relate to your sleep, you can adopt habits that encourage better sleep. Start with these simple sleep tips.

No. 1: Stick to a sleep schedule

Go to bed and get up at the same time every day, even on weekends, holidays and days off. Being consistent reinforces （加強） your body's sleep-wake cycle and helps promote better sleep at night. If you don't fall asleep within about 15 minutes, get up and do something relaxing. Go back to bed when you're tired.

No. 2: Pay attention to what you eat and drink

Don't go to bed either hungry or stuffed. Your discomfort might keep you up. Also limit how much you drink before bed, to prevent disruptive middle-of-the-night trips to the toilet. Nicotine, caffeine and alcohol deserve caution, too. The stimulating effects of nicotine and caffeine — which take hours to wear off — can ruin quality sleep.

No. 3: Create a bedtime ritual

Do the same things each night to tell your body it's time to wind down. This might include taking a warm bath or shower, reading a book, or listening to light music. Be careful of using the TV or other electronic devices as part of your bedtime ritual. Some research suggests that screen time or other media use before bedtime has impact on sleep.

No. 4: Get comfortable

Create a room that's ideal for sleeping. Often, this means cool, dark and quiet. Consider using room-darkening shades, earplugs, a fan or other devices to create an environment that suits your needs.

Your mattress and pillow can contribute to better sleep, too. Since the features of good bedding are subjective, choose what feels most comfortable to you. If you have children or pets, set limits on how often they sleep with you — or insist on separate sleeping quarters.

No. 5: Limit daytime naps

Long daytime naps can affect nighttime sleep — especially if you're struggling with poor sleep quality at night. If you choose to nap during the day, limit yourself to about 10 to 30 minutes and make it during the mid-afternoon.

If you work nights, you'll need to make an exception to the rules about daytime sleeping. In this case, keep your window coverings closed so that sunlight — which adjusts your internal clock — doesn't interrupt your daytime sleep.

No. 6: Include physical activity in your daily routine

Regular physical activity can promote better sleep, helping you to fall asleep faster and to enjoy deeper sleep. Timing is important, though. If you exercise too close to bedtime, you might be too energized to fall asleep. If this seems to be an issue for you, exercise earlier in the day.

No. 7: Manage stress

When you have too much to do — and too much to think about — your sleep is likely to suffer. To help restore peace to your life, consider healthy ways to manage stress. Start with the basics, such as getting organized, setting priorities and dividing tasks. Give yourself permission to take a break when you need one. Share a good laugh with an old friend.

Nearly everyone has an occasional sleepless night — but if you often have trouble sleeping, contact your doctor. Identifying and treating any underlying causes can help you get the better sleep you deserve.

1.Which of the following is helpful to have quality sleep at night?

A. listening to light music before bed

B. working out in the gym only in the day time

C. using expensive pillows that sell well

D. drinking lots of water instead of coffee before bed

2.Which of the following sleep tips is not mentioned in the passage?

A. Control your daytime sleep time.

B. Adopt healthy ways to handle stress.

C. Follow a flexible sleep timetable.

D. Schedule your daily physical activities.

3.According to the passage, in what situation do you need to contact your doctor?

A. You can not nap in the day time.

B. You frequently have trouble sleeping.

C. You do not fall asleep within 15 minutes.

D. You have too much to think about before bed.

4.What’s the purpose of this passage?

A. To provide advice on promoting better sleep at night.

B. To inform readers of different sleep habits before bed.

C. To offer tips on various relaxing activities before bed.

D. To convince readers of the importance of quality sleep at night.

Everyone has a dream. We are on the way to achieve it whether the way is smooth or toughly. As Senior 3 student, I have the same dream as my classmates that I can be admitted to an ideal university. In the past three years, I have done everything I can to equip myself with that I have learnt from my teachers. Not only have I enjoyed the pleasure of study but also I have got closer to my dream.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的七個選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

Of the many unpleasant emotions we can experience, fear may top the list. 1. . Fear can also keep us from pursuing the things in life that really matter -- like following our dreams, and developing important relationships. I have some ideas, though, of how to be free from fear.

Experience fear.

I used to be very afraid of speaking in front of people. I would get sweaty palms and my stomach would be so tied up that I wouldn't be able to eat. However, each time I spoke, I noticed afterwards that it wasn't that bad. Things I fear are never as bad in reality as I make them out in my mind. 2. .

Create space.

The first and most important step to being fearless is to create some space between ourselves and the emotion of fear. This isn't accomplished by ignoring the fear, or trying to talk ourselves out of it. 3. . In fact, a recent research shows that by simply admitting the emotion we actually begin to reverse the "fight or flight(逃避)" response in the body.

Control the breath and feel the fear.

Once we acknowledge the presence of fear, the second step is to control the breathing so that it becomes slower and gentler. We try to make the breath just a little bit longer, and feel how fear manifests(展現(xiàn)) in the body. 4. .

With practice, we can create enough space between us and the emotion of fear so that we're able to replace a fearful thought with a positive one. 5. . For instance, before I get up to speak in front of a group of people, I imagine that the audience is positively impressed by what I say and that I manage to complete the speech successfully.

A. Space is created only when we can honestly acknowledge that fear exists.

B. We can imagine a positive outcome for whatever we're about to do.

C. Fear, if left uncontrolled, can even destroy our life.

D. So one way to get rid of fear is to simply push ourselves to do things that we fear.

E. When we can see a positive outcome in our mind, fear no longer holds us back.

F. But fear is more than just physically unpleasant.

G. As we pay attention to the physical symptoms of fear, we can see fear objectively.

Tips for summer reading

Summer holds many of my strongest and most powerful reading memories. I remember sitting under a tree in the backyard as a child, reading Anne of Green Gables as the shadows crossed the grass. I remember sitting in the back seat of the car on a long family road trip, sharing joke books with my brother and sister and laughing until we cried. 1. I want all kids to enjoy the fun of summer reading, because summer reading has secret power. 2.__ here are some ways to motivate kids for summer reading.

Make children the curators（管理人）of their reading lives.

Have students set summer reading goals for themselves. 3. Students can act as “chief curators” of the blog in turn so that over the course of the summer each of them takes on the responsibility of replying to posts and highlighting a popular title.

4.

Taking “curiosity walks” is a fantastic way to bring informational text into a child’s reading list. These walks also provide opportunities for authentic writing. Have children take an inspiration notebook on a class walk outside and write down anything they see that they would like to learn more about.

Make reading more like summer camp.

Let’s combine reading with hands-on activities and make reading more like summer camp. We can take field trips to the library and search the shelves for books on a topic chosen out of a hat. 5. then they can bring that creation in to share on the first days of school.

A. It will set the stage for academic success.

B. Bring the outdoors back into summer reading.

C. Select some books and share them with your students.

D. Set up a summer blog so you can all share recommendations.

E. These memories became important stepping stones in my life.

F. It is important to build and shape a strong reading life during school months.

G. We can ask our students to create something in response to one of the books they’ve read.
