Did you sleep well last night? Or did you wake up feeling tired? Getting a good night’s sleep requires more than getting into bed and closing your eyes. Understanding your sleep behavior and preparing for a sound sleep can help make sure every night is a good night for sleeping.

“Sleep is a kind of behavior and it is different among people,”explains Dr. Carol Landis, a sleep researcher professor.“The greatest differences happen in the timing (时间选择) of sleep and the amount (数量) of sleep.”Some people function better if they go to sleep early and rise early, while others feel more rested (精力充沛的) if they stay up late and sleep in. The amount of sleep the adults need each night is also different. Some people may be fine with six hours’sleep, while others need up to nine hours’sleep per night.

Landis offers the following advice on practicing falling asleep well:

Avoid coffee and food such as chocolate in the late afternoon and evening.

Finish exercising two hours before going to sleep. Exercise increases body temperatures and makes it more difficult to fall asleep easily.

Don’t sleep in a warm environment. A drop in a person’s body temperature is important at the beginning of deep sleep. People who sleep in a well-heated room may not sleep well.

Catch up on missed sleep when you have the chance. Busy work or busy weekend activities often make it difficult to get as much sleep as we’d like each night. Try taking a 30-minute short sleep during the day before 4 pm or sleeping in on weekends.

C.Getting into bed and closing your eyes are the most important in getting a good night’s sleep.

D.Getting into bed and closing your eyes have nothing to do with a good night’s sleep.

A.We should have the right amount of sleep every day.

B.We should go to bed at the right time every day.

C.The ways of improving sleep of different people.

D.The differences in sleep among people.

One day after school, I went to the teacher’s office to see my teacher, but nobody was there. When I was about to leave, I noticed a piece of paper on the floor. I picked it up and saw the words “FINAL-TERM EXAM” at the top. I put the paper into my school bag secretly and ran out of the room.

After I came back home, I took out the paper quickly. It was the exam paper(试卷) of my History. I felt excited. I took out my History book and started working on the answer. I had never answered any questions so carefully.

On the day of the History exam, I went into the exam hall happily. When I got the paper, I dreamt of getting the highest mark in the whole grade and could not help smiling. “My History teacher always told me to work hard and get better grades, but I let him down time and time again. This time I will give him a big surprise,” I thought.

When the teacher said we could start, I turned the paper over. To my surprise, all the questions were different. In the end, I didn’t finish the paper. I felt very sad. After the exam, I ran to the toilet, took out the paper and carefully read it from the top. Oh! It was last year’s exam paper. I read all the questions but I didn’t read the date.

This is a lesson. Now I know I have to put my feet on the ground. I was sorry to do the wrong thing. Later, I went to the teacher’s office again…. Now, I work harder than ever before.
