The university I attend has about 3500 students. One early afternoon, I 【1】 (walk) around the campus when I found a female student sitting on the walkway with tears on her face. Everyone just walked by her, so I decided to stop 【2】 (give) her a hand. I dropped my books and sat down beside her. 【3】 turned out that she injured her ankle (脚踝) and was 【4】 (able) to walk. So I told her that I would sit with her 【5】 she was ready to get up. It only took a few 【6】 (minute) for her to calm down. Then I took her 【7】 the hand and got her to the nearest hospital.

She thanked me so much for just stopping! Since then, when we run into each other 【8】 (occasional) on campus, she would smile and thank me again. And we have become good friends now. I am amazed that just my sitting there, 【9】 (offer) support and comfort to a total 【10】 (strange) would affect her so greatly.

【题目】If youre like many Americans, youre probably not getting enough sleep. Constantly on the go, you may think you never have enough time to finish everything on your to-do list. But that doesnt mean you should shortchange your sleep—or your health, for that matter.

【1】 Then, follow these simple tips to help you get better sleep and wake up feeling refreshed every morning.

Sleep Fix #1 Give your bedroom a makeover.

Make your sleeping area conducive to rest by keeping it dark and quiet. 【2】 Keep in mind that your body temperature drops at night, so you want to keep your room environment at a cool, comfortable level.

Sleep Fix #2 Get enough sleep.

Most people need seven or eight hours to best function, says Nancy Collop, MD, director of the Emory Sleep Center in Atlanta and president of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. “You dont want to be tired or sleepy during the day，” she says. If you need an alarm clock to wake up, find yourself chugging caffeine to stay awake, or you nod off during meetings, you may not be getting enough shut-eye.

Sleep Fix #3 Establish a regular routine.

Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. People who frequently switch their sleep times experience something similar to jet lag. Basner points to “Sunday night insomnia，” where weekend warriors stay up late on Friday and Saturday and then have trouble falling asleep on Sunday. 【3】， he explains.

Sleep Fix #4【4】

Its tempting to watch TV or surf the web from bed, but those activities usually make it harder to wind down. The latest research suggests that artificial light coming from laptop screens, TVs, etc. suppresses the sleep-inducing hormone melatonin(诱导睡眠的褪黑激素). So give yourself a technology curfew and turn off those screens at least an hour before bedtime.

Sleep Fix #5 Make bedtime a priority for the whole family.

【5】 Use rituals（仪式、惯例） that help children wind down like bath, brushing teeth, and story time. Be aware that your kids may try to push the bedtime limits. “Kids are pretty clever. Theyll try to manipulate(操纵) parents if they can and parents need to try to avoid giving in to that，” says Colon.

A. There are treatments available for cases of sleeplessness.

B. So start by making sleep a priority in your life.

C. If you live in a city, consider using a white-noise machine to block out loud noises.

D. Unexplained sleepiness is an important signal that you should talk to your doctor.

E. Just those 24-48 hours can shift your circadian rhythm(昼夜节律) and cause poor sleep.

F. Put away your gadgets.

G. School-age kids benefit from a regular bedtime routine.

【题目】 When I was small and my grandmother died, I couldn't understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.

So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too, does crying.

Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional health, and crying seems to work well. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.

Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don't even know we’re very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.

Just as crying can be healthy, not crying - holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering - can be bad for physical health, Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don't fight it. It's a natural –and healthy-emotional response.

A.The author doesn't give the explanation.

B.Because she did not love her grandmother.

C.Because she was too shy to cry at that time.

A.there are two ways to keep mental health.

B.crying does more good to health than laughing

C.crying and laughing play the same jobs.

D.emotional health has a close relationship to physical health.

A.Crying is the best way to get help from others.

B.Fighting back tears may cause some health problems.

C.We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry.
