Can't sleep? You turn all night never seeming to get comfortable, never seeming to feel like you are even close to sleep? I bet you've tried a few different solutions too, warm milk or maybe even sleeping pills. The reason why you can't sleep could be because of many different things. 1. However, if you want simple solutions to sleep better then the following steps can help you get that great night's sleep:

1. Sleep on your side.

Sleeping on your side is an acquired taste if all you have been doing is stomach sleeping. The side position is best for your neck and for improving breathing which is a common cause for frequently waking. 2.

2. Find the right pillow.

Finding the right pillow is vitally important. 3. In the side sleeping position the pillow should fill the entire space between your neck and the mattress(床墊).Your head should not be tipped up or down but be in line with your spine（脊椎）．

3. No digital entertainment before bed.

Avoid any forms of digital entertainment at least one hour prior to bed. Digital entertainment means movies, TV, Xbox, computer/laptop use, even a kindle. 4. Trying reading a few pages of non-fiction instead.

4. 5.

When you eat and got to bed shortly after what happens is that your stomach is still full of food. This prevents you from breathing properly and can lead to a very disturbed sleep.

A. Having a sound sleep is my dream.

B. Wait three hours after eating.

C. There are five steps to have better sleep.

D. Stay away from all forms.

E. Always get a check from a health care provider if you have specific concerns.

F. The best pillows are formed to support the neck.

G. Try placing a pillow between your knees in order to prevent rolling onto your stomach.

Newborns begin to develop language skills long before they begin speaking. And, compared to adults, they develop these skills more quickly. People have a hard time learning new languages as they grow older, but babies have the ability to learn any language easily.

For a long time, scientists have tried to explain how such young children can learn the complicated grammatical rules and sounds of a language. Now, researchers are getting a better idea of what’s happening in the brains of the tiniest language learners. This new information might help kids with learning problems as well as adults who want to learn new languages. It might even help scientists who are trying to design computers that can communicate like people do.

Most babies go “ma ma” by 6 months of age, and most children speak in full sentences by age 3. For many years, scientists have wondered how the brains of young children figure out how to communicate using language. With help from new technologies, scientists are now finding that babies begin life with the ability to learn any language. They get into contact with other people, listen to what they say and watch their movements very closely. That is why they quickly master the languages they hear most often.

Studies show that, up to about 6 months of age, babies can recognize all the sounds that make up all the languages in the world. Starting at around 6 months old a baby’s brain focuses on the most common sounds it hears. Then, children begin responding only to the sounds of the language they hear the most.

In a similar way older babies start recognizing the patterns that make up the rules of their native language. For example, English children who are about 18 months old start to figure out that words ending in “-ing” or “-ed” are usually verbs, and that verbs are action words.

1.The new research in the second paragraph can be helpful in _____.

A. finding successful language learners

B. teaching kids with learning problems

C. designing human-shaped computers

D. improving babies’ language ability

2. The researchers found out that babies learn a language mainly by _____.

A. repeating the words of other people

B. remembering the full sentences they hear

C. hearing and closely watching others speak

D. figuring out the meaning of different sounds

3.The purpose of the text is to _____.

A. discuss B. educate

C. inform D. Entertain

Think about the different ways that people use the wind. You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat. Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power sources, as well as one of the oldest. Evidence shows that windmills began to be used in the ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC. They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s, when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power.

For many centuries, people used windmills to grind(磨碎)wheat into flour or pump water from deep underground. When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s, people living in remote areas began to use them to produce electricity. This allowed them to have electric lights and radios. However, by the 1940s when electricity was available to people in almost all areas of the United States, windmills were rarely used.

During the 1970s, people started becoming concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity. People realized that the supply of coal and gas would not last forever. Then, wind was rediscovered, though it means higher costs. Today, there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind.

1.From the text we know that windmills _______.

A. were invented by European armies

B. have a history of more than 2,800 years

C. have rarely been used since electricity was discovered

D. used to supply power to radio in remote area

2.The underlined word in Paragraph 2 probably means________.

A. making something cleaner

B. making something flow freely

C. making something flow in a particular direction

D. making something into small parts

3.One of the reasons wind was discovered in the 1970s is that_______.

A. it is one of the oldest power sources

B. wind power is cleaner

C. it was cheaper to create energy from wind

D. coal and gas failed to meet the needs

4.What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?

A. The global trend towards producing power from wind.

B. The design of wind power plants.

C. The worldwide movement to save energy.

D. The advantages of wind power.

Scientists think it will be possible to record people's dreams and then interpret them, according to a new report.

They claim to have developed a system which allows them to record higher level brain activity.

Dr Moran Cerf told the journal Nature: "We would like to read people's dreams."

Previously the only way to access people's dreams is for psychologists to ask about them after the event and try to interpret them.

Dr Cerf hopes to eventually compare people's memories of their dreams with an electronic visualization(影像) of their brain activity.

He told the BBC: "There's no clear answer as to why humans dream. And one of the questions we would like to answer is when do we actually create this dream?"

The scientist believes his latest research shows that certain neurons(神經(jīng)元) or individual brain cells are linked with specific objects or concepts.

He found that a particular neuron lit up when a volunteer thought about Marilyn Monroe.

If a database was built up identifying various neurons with concepts, objects and people it would allow them to "read the subject's minds", according to Dr Cerf.

However, Dr Roderick Oner, a clinical psychologist and dream expert, said that this kind of visualisation would be of limited help when it came to interpreting the "complex dream narrative".

In addition to get a detailed picture of individual neurons subjects had to have electrodes implanted(植入電極) deep in the brain using surgery.

The Nature researchers used data from patients who had electrodes implanted to monitor and treat them for brain seizures(癲癇).

However, Dr Cerf said he hoped that it would be possible at a later stage to monitor people without invasive surgery. He said it would be "wonderful" to be able to read the minds of coma patients who are unable to communicate.

1.According to the passage, psychologists try to interpret people’s dreams______.

A. by recording higher level brain activity

B. by comparing people’s memories of their dreams with an electronic visualization

C. by asking about people after their dreams

D. by linking certain neurons with specific objects or concept

2.What’s the best title for this passage?

A. Scientists plan to record people’s dreams

B. Psychologists try to ask people about their dreams

C. Dream experts want to interpret the complex dream narrative

D. The Nature researchers intend to treat patients for brain seizures

3.According to Dr Cerf’s research, when a patient thinks about a famous film star, ______.

A. various neurons will identify the star as famous

B. a particular neuron will become bright with excitement

C. the star will appear in his brain

D. the star’s face will light up

4.The underlined word “coma” in the last paragraph most probably means______.

A. the lost of the ability to hear

B. being unable to control one’s movements

C. the state of being unconscious (無意識的)

D. being unable to move

“Who does the cooking in your home?” I’m often asked by my colleagues. “My wife and I share it 50/50,” I usually say without hesitation.

It’s a lie, of course. We’re pretty much even（相等的）when it comes to the children and the elderly. But the paying of bills isn’t 50/50-my wife pays all sorts of household expenses, so I never even have to set eyes on them. And the cooking isn’t 50/50, either.

The truth is that I am the cook. On my recent 40th birthday, I received the following gifts from my children: a new pot, two mini bottles of truffle oil, a decorative salad-dressing pourer, and a juice-making machine. For a moment I longed for something more manly, a cricket bat, perhaps, and then had to admit that all these things would be useful for me.

It’s not that my wife can’t or doesn’t like to cook (she makes delicious Welsh cakes). Nor has it always been this way. In the early years of our marriage I’d be relaxing with a glass of wine while my wife prepared for dinner after work.

But at some point that changed and I became the cook. Ten years with my wife gave me the rewards-I can throw together a roast, and I can make much foreign food. But I have truly become a monster（怪物）in the kitchen, unable to keep myself away from cooking. “You have to add Dijon to the sauce; it brings out the taste of the cheese,” I volunteer, as my wife is cooking. “Quick, stir in the butter so the dish becomes delicious.”

Is it any wonder that my wife has given up coming into the kitchen while I find the whole process of chopping, mixing, and adding things deeply satisfying?

1.What do the writer and his wife probably share evenly at home?

a．Cooking in the kitchen.

b．Taking care of the children.

c．Paying household expenses.

d．Taking care of the elderly at home.

A．a(chǎn)b B．bd C．bc D．a(chǎn)c

2.The gifts that the writer received on his 40th birthday show that .

A．he is in charge of the cooking at home

B．his children don’t know him at all

C．he doesn’t get along well with his children

D．his children have made wrong choices

3.What do we know about the writer’s wife?

A．She can’t cook.

B．She doesn’t like cooking.

C．She only knows how to make Welsh cakes

D．She used to cook for the family.

4.From Paragraph 5 we learn that the writer .

A．likes sticking his nose into other people’s business

B．doesn’t think his wife is good at cooking

C．studies very hard in order to cook well

D．enjoys cooking in the kitchen

Do you love hamburgers? Do you how they were created?

The first hamburgers in U.S. history were served in New Haven, Connecticut, at Louis’ Lunch sandwich shop in 1895. Louis Lassen, founder of Louis’ Lunch, ran a small lunch wagon selling steak sandwiches to local factory workers. Because he didn’t like to waste the excess beef from his daily lunch rush, he ground it up, grilled it, and served it between two slice of bread—and thus America’s first hamburger was created.

The small Crown Street restaurant is still owned and operated by the third and fourth generations of the Lassen family. Hamburgers are still the specialty of the house, where steak is ground fresh each day and hand molded, slow cooked, broiled vertically, and served between two slices of toast with your choice of only three “acceptable” garnishes: cheese, tomato, and onion.

Want ketchup or mustard? Forget it. You will be told “no” in no uncertain terms. This is the home of the greatest hamburger in the world, claim the owners, who are perhaps best known for allowing their customers to have a burger the Lassen way or not at all.

A British shopper, Emma Mumford, who was named “the Coupon(優(yōu)惠券) Queen” has spent just £350 on a luxury(奢侈) Christmas for her and her family—but got £2,500 worth of food, drink and presents thanks to coupons and offers.

Ms Mumford is a so-called “extreme couponer” and spends hours hunting out the best deals and bargains. She has been preparing for this Christmas since the end of the last one.

She has now turned her bargain-hunting addiction into a business where she searches for the best deals and offers tips to the general public through video blogging and her Facebook Page.
