Are morning people born or made? In my case it was definitely made. In my early 20s, I hardly went to bed before midnight, and I would always get up late the next morning.

    But after a while I couldn’t ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. On those rare occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity (效率) was always higher. So I set out to become a habitual early riser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sleep research showed that my strategy was wrong.

    The most common wrong strategy is this: supposing you’re going to get up earlier, you’d better go to bed earlier. It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail.

    There are two main schools (流派) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day. The second school says you should go to bed when you’re tired and get up when you naturally wake up. However, I have found both are wrong if you care about productivity. If you sleep at fixed hours, you’ll sometimes go to bed when you aren’t sleepy enough. You’re wasting time lying in bed awake.

    My solution is to combine both methods. I go to bed when I’m sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time. So I always get up at the same time (in my case 5 a.m.), but I go to bed at different times every night.

However, going to bed only when I’m sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning are my ways. If you want to become an early riser, you can try your own.

I had been playing hockey(冰球)for about 10 years. I was always the one sitting at the end of the bench, and      got into a game. I went to all the      and showed up even when it was so      that your ‘breath froze’ and when the other players had decided to stay home. I felt I had      enough and thought of quitting.

I finally decided to      the news to my mom that I was leaving the team. My mom may have looked like a tiny and quiet lady but on      my words, she said, “Remember, ‘A quitter never wins and a winner never quits.’ Your mother didn’t raise      , so think about yourself in a      way and see yourself as a winner!” So I worked harder than ever at getting in better shape,      my shot(投球) accuracy and changing my      . 

Once in a match, we      our first game badly. What’s worse, one of our best players got hurt. I was sitting at my     place, at the end of the bench, when the coach came over and told me I was going      . I was nervous, excited and terrified all at the same time.

The opposing team was fast and I had to admit I was a little      .  But my mom’s words      out in my head like a church bell. Instead of being afraid, I was “pumped” and I very quickly found that all my      work was paying off.  I was as fast a skater as anyone else on the ice, and I seemed to get the      to score. The crowd went quiet.  All the time I spent on the ice when everyone had  

gone home had     me for this moment.

Won! I won!

The lesson I learned from my mom’s      has stayed with me over the years. I hear them whenever I am faced with a challenge, or whenever I      myself.

This week was busier than usual, and I was very tired today. All I wanted to do was to go home and enjoy a bowl of good hot soup.

But when I saw my daughter’s car, I knew that it was Bryan’s night. Since his parents separated, I had tried to have my six-year-old grandson spend a few hours with me at least once a week. I had always tried to make it a special time for him. We did many interesting things; Bryan loved all these activities, and so did I. But today I had to give up our evening. I said how tired I was feeling. “Bryan, I’m sorry. Tonight I don’t feel like having fun or playing games. We’ll have our night together some other time.” I saw the sadness in Bryan’s eyes. He said, “I like soup, Grandma.” I knew he meant “Please don’t send me away. Please let me stay.” I saw the shadow (阴影) in Bryan’s eyes. Something else was changing. Maybe he thought I wouldn’t want to have him come any more — not tonight, not next week, not ever. Finally, I said OK. I was glad to see his eyes light up. After I put the soup on the stove (炉子) and turned on the TV, I fell asleep.

When I woke up, there was a coat over my legs, and the soup was gone. Bryan was on the floor, reading a coloring book and watching a television show at the same time. The poor boy must have been so bored (烦躁的)! When he found I was awake, he ran over and gave me a big hug. “I love you, Grandma,” he said. “Haven’t we had a nice time together?” His big smile and happy eyes told me that this time he meant exactly what he was saying. That was the keyword — together. We had done nothing exciting or special. But we were together.

1.What does the underlined part (in Paragraph 2) mean?

A.It was time to cook hot soup for Bryan that night.

B.This was the evening when Bryan stayed with his grandma.

C.Bryan would have a good rest that night.

D.Bryan would stay with his parents that night.

2.Why didn’t the author want to stay with her grandson that night at first?

A.She was too tired to have fun or play games with him.

B.She was sick and wanted to have a good rest.

C.She was too busy and had to work overtime that night.

D.She had to prepare soup for the whole family.

3.How many times did the author describe Bryan’s eyes?

A.1.               B.2.                C.3.               D.4.

4.From the passage, we can infer that _____.

A.Bryan’s parents separated so he had to live with his grandma

B.Bryan was sad that night because his grandma didn’t play with him

C.the author wouldn’t want to stay with her grandson any more

D.the author and her grandson loved each other very much

 

I recently turned fifty, which is young for a tree, midlife for an elephant, and ancient for a sportsman. Fifty is a nice number for the states in the US or for a national speed limit but it is not a number that I was prepared to have hung on me. Fifty is supposed to be my father’s age, but now I am stuck with this number and everything it means.

A few days ago, a friend tried to cheer me up by saying, “Fifty is what forty used to be.” He had made an inspirational (有灵感的) point. Am I over the hill ? People keep telling me that the hill has been moved, and I keep telling them that the high-jump bar has dropped from the six feet I once easily cleared to the four feet that is impossible for me now.

“You are not getting older, you are getting better.” Says Dr. Joyce Brothers. This, however, is the kind of doctor who inspires a second opinion.

And so as I approach the day when I cannot even jump over the tennis net, I am moved to share some thoughts on aging with you, I am moved to show how aging feels to me physically and mentally. Getting older, of course, is obviously a better change than the one that brings you eulogies(悼词). In fact, a poet name Robert Browning considered it the best change of all:

Grow old along with me !

The best is yet to me.

Whether or not Browning was right, most of my first fifty years have been golden ones, so I will settle for what is ahead being as good as what has gone by. I find myself moving toward what is ahead with a curious blend(混合) of both fighting and accepting my aging, hoping that the philosopher(哲学家) was right when he said , “old is always fifteen years from now.”
