5．Travaling is one of life's great joys．It's a way to see the world and learn about places you've never been before．（36）GThe best things can come from the worst experiences
Once，when I was in Sicily，I was cheated by a stranger for a hundred dollars．At first I was astonished．（37）Band what I would do if I had it．But what I learned from this about humanity，about the nature of good and evil within people，and how circumstances force them to do bad things showed me a lot about myself and how to deal with misfortune．（38）F
The cost of a trip may be a couple of thousand dollars，depending on how big you go．But the value it could have on your life and your memories could be priceless．Think about how much you are willing to spend，sure，but also consider what else you want from your vacation，who you want to meet，what kind of experiences you want to have，and how you want to remember it ten years from now．
Don't follow others'footsteps and find your own path
（39）C，but I look forward to wandering away from the group，down labyrinthine alleys（迷宫般的小巷），into different shops and neighborhoods，to experience my own understanding of a city and its environment．The same applies to when I come home from my trip．（40）E
Unavoidably，you will see or hear things worth telling friends about when you return home．After traveling enough，you will have all the practice you need to become a master story-teller．
So keep traveling with these lessons in mind and learn more from your experiences abroad．

A．Plan for the unexpected
B．I spent the en tire next day thinking about what I should have done to keep my money
C．Traveling in a guided tour can be informative and fun
D．Traveling is kind of like being in love．

Studies show that poor sleep influences people to make good decisions，concentrate on tasks or even manage a friendly mood at work．（36）EToday we've got our top favorite sleep tips and facts．
Set a regular bedtime
（37）DChoose a time when you normally feel tired．Try not to break this routine（惯例） on weekends when you will probably stay up late．If you want to change your bedtime，make the change gradually，such as 15 minutes earlier or later each day．
Eat the right food
Some foods are more helpful to a better night's sleep than others．（38）FOthers like bananas，potatoes，and whole-wheat bread are also helpful．
（39）BExercising provides lots of good health benefits．A good night's sleep is one of them．But make sure you exercise in the morning of afternoon．，The National Sleep Foundation reports that exercise in the morning or afternoon can help deepen sleep and cut the time it takes for you to fall into sleep．However，those who worked out in the evening hours saw little or no improvement in their sleep．

13．How  To  Break  5  Bad  Financial   Habits
Everyone has a bad financial habit．We live in a country that spends billions on advertising to make us want to make purchases；  （36）G．Remember：even though the habits are hard to break and require great effort，there is payoff．
1．Pay bills when you receive them．Think of all the stress and anxiety that you experience when you put off paying your bills．When you receive the email notice or open the bill in the mail，take care of it．It will only take five minutes，and you won't be flooded with bills at the last minute．
2．（37）E．You must have had a hard time controlling the amount of purchases you are making．Minimize this urge by using your ATM card once a week to withdraw the amount of money for the week．Keep your cards at home，and even put your credit cards in a hard to reach place in your closet to keep you from using them．
3．Buy only what you really need．Most of us take shopping trips to buy items we really don't really need．Some claim shopping eases their tension，gets their mind off other things，or gives them much happiness．（38）A．Try to replace shopping with some hobbies like riding your bike or taking a walk with friends．
4．Track your expenses．Sometimes restaurants and businesses will charge you the wrong amount，but you won't have the receipt to back up your claim．Other times，you might have inadequate funds for the check you just wrote．Keep your receipts，and spend a few minutes every night to double check your charges，and know the current balance of your bank account．（39）C．
5．Check your credit score annually．（40）F．If you do notice something wrong，you can send in correction letters，so your applications for credit cards，car loans，or a mortgage（房屋贷款） are approved．

A．Take the time to figure out what makes you buy unnecessary items．
B．Change how you spend your money．
C．It beats getting overcharged or having to pay an overdraft（透支） fee．
D．So if you're the reason your money never seems to stick around，here are some strategies to help break five bad financial habits．
E．Use cash and not your card．
F．Get in the habit of checking your credit score to make sure there are no errors or inaccuracies．
G．However，if you are looking to make change and break your bad financial habits，use these tips．
10．Your house may have an effect on your weight．It is said that the way you design your home could play a part in whether you put on weight or not．1（36）GHere are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan．
（37）EDark environments are more likely to encourage overeating，for people are often less self-conscious（难为情）when they're in poorly lit places---and so more likely to eat lots of food．If your home doesn't have enough window light，get more lamps and fill the place with light．
（38）AResearch suggests warm colors help us eat more．In one study，people who ate meals in a yellow or red room consumed 33 percent more than those in a blue room．Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing，while cold colors make us feel less hungry．So when it's time to repaint，go blue．
（39）CPeople who eat slowly usually use about 70 fewer calories（卡路里）per meal than those who rush through their meals．Try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes．And while you're at it，actually sit down to eat．If you need some help slowing down，turn on relaxing music．It makes you less likely to rush through a meal．
（40）BBig bowls and plates can easily make us fat．We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate．When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one，total intake（摄入）jumps by 14 percent．And we'll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short，wide glass than a tall，skinny glass．
 
A．Mind the colors．
B．Downsize the dishes．
C．Don't forget the clock---or the radio．
D．Get more food full of energy and fiber．
E Open the curtains and turn up the lights．
F．Having meals in your own house is good for your health．
G．You can make your house work for you instead of against you．
17．Maybe you are an average student．（16）E This is not necessarily so，however．Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to．Here's how．
Plan your time carefully．When planning your work，you should make a list of things that you have to do．After making this list，you should make a schedule of your time．First your time for eating，sleeping，dressing，etc．Then decide a good，regular time for studying．（17）B A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems，but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time．
Make good use of your time in class．（18）C Listening carefully in class means less work later．Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says．
Study regularly．When you get home from school，go over your notes； look at the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day，and read that material．（19）G If you do these things regularly，the material will become more meaningful，and you'll remember it longer．
Develop a good attitude towards tests．The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject．They help you remember your new knowledge．The world won't end if you don't pass a test，so don't be over worried．
（20）A You will probably discover them after you have tried these．

A．There are other methods that might help you with your studying．
B．Don't forget to set aside enough time for relaxation．
C．Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says．
D．No one can become a top student unless he or she works hard．
E．You probably think you will never be a top student．
F．Make full use of class time to take notes of what the teacher says in class．
G．This will help you understand the next class．
14．When the morning sun looks in through your bedroom window，do you jump
out of bed？（36）CAn adequate amount of sleep can make the difference between a great day and a terrible one!
A good night's sleep doesn't just happen．You need to prepare for it．（37）DFirst，go to bed at the same time every day，and get up at the same time．If you haven't gotten a good night's sleep，don't oversleep the next morning．Get up at your regular time．Sleeping late for just a couples of days can change your body clock to a different cycle．You don't want that if you have a set daily schedule．
Also，avoid big meals at night．（38）GYour stomach works hard to digest those fatty foods，and that may keep you up．
Your body produces a chemical called melatonin （褪黑色素） that helps you sleep．Light affects the amount of melatonin your body makes．（39）FSo at night turn off your TV and computer．Also，don't read from a backlit （背光） electronic equipment like an IPad．Some scientists think that the light from those stops your body from making melatonin．So turn those screens off at least an hour before bedtime．
Maybe you can't sleep or you wake up in the middle of the night．（40）AGet up and do something relaxing elsewhere．Then go back to bed when you feel sleepy again．If you worry a lot，make a list of things you need to do the next day．Do that an hour before bed．That way you get your worrying out of the way before you go to bed．
After a good night's sleep，you'll be able to face a new day．

A．Don't just lie in bed．
B．You can have three meals a day．
C．Or do you roll over and complain？
D．Various experts have given tips to help．
E．Your T V and computers might affect your sleep．
F．It produces more in the evening and less in the daytime．
G．Eating heavy，rich foods within two hours of bedtime can keep you awake．
15．How to Make Friends
Friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends．Good friendship has many benefits．It offers companionship，improves self-worth and promotes good health．There are times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new town，or changed our jobs or schools．Such changes often leave us without a friend （36）EBut for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage．Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends．
1．Associate with others．
The first step to making friends is associating with other people．You can go to public places to meet new people．Besides，you will need to make yourself known by becoming an active member of such places．
2．Start a conversation
Starting a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends．（37）CYou

3．（38）B
Choosing friends with common interests is important in building friendship as these interests would always bring you and your friend together，Hanging out will always be a pleasant experience．
4．Let it grow．
It is a good thing to stay in touch．However，try not to press your new friend with calls，messages or visits as this would likely wear him or her out and finally you may lose your friend．
（39）G．The best friendships are the ones that grow naturally．
5．Enjoy your friendship
The best way to enjoy your friendship is to allow your friends to be themselves． （40）DTry not to change them from who they are to what you want them to be．Become the kind of friend you will want your friend to be to you．

A．Be cheerful．
B．Do things together．
C．Do not wait to be spoken to．
D．Try not to find fault with your friends．
E．Making new friends comes easy for some people．
