Every place you leave becomes a memory. Even if you return to visit， in your mind it’s as it was when you left.

I consider New York City my second hometown. You fight your way into New York City. It isn’t easy. It isn’t cheap. It isn’t so friendly. So when I got to Helsinki， the capital of Finland， I was surprised at how easy it was. People were friendly and nice. They are curious about what I thought of Finland.

Except the coffee and the cost of living， Helsinki and New York don’t have much in common， but I was born in the US Midwest， which was heavily influenced by North Europe. So the life of Finland seemed familiar to that of the US.

Still， I missed New York， I visited it last year， and I went to my old coffee room， still in the same place. Although it was 2014， my mind insisted that it was 2007 and I had never left. The waiter looked at me silently， reaching for the same size cup and pouring the same type of coffee I always got. Same corner， same waiter， same coffee.

To the waiter， he guessed maybe I moved to another neighborhood. He wouldn’t guess from my appearance that I haven’t even been in the country. He didn’t find that there was anything different until I opened my mouth. It was something I said， I’m sure. He mistook me for one of the tourists who got lost on their way from Times Square.

In my mind， this is my home. It was the place when I dreamed of my childhood， long after I left it; and now I am the same as the other tourists with the packbag.

1.Helsinki is in __________.

A. Finland B. America

C. New York D. China

2.Compared with Helsinki， the life in New York City is _________.

A. easy B. cheap C. difficult D. nice

3.The writer’s real place of birth is _________.

A. New York City B. Helsinki

C. Finland D. the US Midwest

4.How long had the writer been away from New York before he visited it last year?

A. 5 B. 7 C.9 D. 10

5.What made the coffee guy think the writer to be a tourist?

A. What he looked. B. What he wore.

C. What he said. D. What he did.

Mark began to introduce the guest speaker to the listeners， but then stopped for a while. He had forgotten her name.

Barbara hid her valuable things when she went on vacation. When she came back， she couldn’t remember where she’d put them.

Perhaps you’ve had such experiences like these. Most people have. But most of them haven’t realized that they have a memory problem. Neither do they know a simple but important fact: Memory can be improved. If you’ll just accept that， the following will show you how.

First， relax. If you are over worried about remembering something， you’ll forget it. If you keep telling yourself that your memory is bad， your mind will come to believe it and you won’t remember things. When you forget something， don’t follow up with sayings like “Oh， my God! I always forget things!” Such words will have a bad result on you and your memory.

But relaxing isn’t enough. To improve your memory， you’ll need to take an active role. Like your body， your memory can be made strong through exercise. Look for opportunities to exercise your memory. For example， if you’re learning a language， try to actively remember a lot of new words.

If you don’t take notice of things actively， you won’t remember them. So， you can make pictures of what you see in your mind every day. For example， don’t just put your keys down! If you want to find them again， make a mind picture of the place where you’re putting them.

1. The first two paragraphs just tell us ________.

A. Barbara was a very rich person

B. Mark often forgot his friends’ names

C. examples of memory problems

D. language problems of two persons

2.When you forget things， you ________.

A. must be too careless

B. shouldn’t lose heart about your memory

C. must accept the fact

D. shouldn’t take notice of the result

3.The word “opportunities” in the fifth paragraph means “________”.

A. places B. activities C. positions D. chances

4.According to the passage， ________ can make your memory better.

A. realizing your memory problems

B. talking to your friends

C. making mind pictures of what you see

D. doing sports every day

5.The purpose of the passage is to help you ________.

A. to improve your memory B. to introduce the guest

C. to remember new words D. to forget unhappy things

The stressful school life and unhealthy lifestyles cause some problems to students. Here are some key mistakes and some tips.

■ Sitting for a long time

So much homework and many computer games make students sit for several hours without standing or walking around. Because of long time sitting， some students have got diabetes (糖尿病) and heart disease (疾病).

Tips: ·Get up and out of your chair for about five minutes every hour.

·Walk over to a person instead of sending e-mails or text messages.

■ Eating irregularly

Some students develop unhealthy eating habits. Fast food becomes more often. Heavy studying and stress keep students from eating meals regularly.

Tips: ·Eat breakfast with eggs at the start of every day.

·Never buy unhealthy food like fast food， sweets and candies.

·Have three meals a day at the right time.

■ Sleeping less

If some students don’t get enough sleep， the smooth cycle of our biological clock (生物钟) is broken. It can cause heart disease and high blood pressure (高血压).

Tips: ·Be sure to sleep for seven to eight hours every night.

·Have a rest for about 30 minutes at noon.

■ Having a number of energy drinks

An energy drink or an extra cup of coffee might seem like the only way to get through a late-night study time. High levels of caffeine (咖啡因) can also cause high blood pressure.

Tips: ·The safest way to get more energy is to eat regular meals， sleep well， exercise and drink lots of water.
