There are warm tropical regions all over the globe，but only the Indians of the South American rain forests have formed the habit of sleeping in the open air．Long before they made painful acquaintance（相识） with Europeans，they had invented something that was unique on earth ：the hammock．

Nobody really knows who first had bright idea of making sleeping in the air the symbol of untroubled rest．The Indians see the hammock as a "gift of heaven（上天）"， something given to them a very long time ago．

In it the Indians pass away hot noon hours，napping or chatting．Swinging it to and fro（来回摆动）creates a cooling breath of air and keeps away insects．They work and play in hammocks，are born and die there．

Hung like a suspension bridge between heaven and earth，a hammock is dry while the soil is damp and is safe from most wild animals．

Hammocks have the advantage over beds in that they are easy to transport and take up very little space when they have been rolled up（卷起）．Indians never go on a journey without their hammocks，not even to their plantations．

It is matter of common observation that although money incomes keep going up over the years, we never seem to become much better off! Prices are rising continuously. This condition is named one of inflation (通货膨胀 ) ; the money supply is becoming inflated so that each unit of it becomes less valuable. We have grown used in recent years to higher and higher rates of inflation. What could be bought ten years ago for one dollar now costs well over two dollars? Present indications (迹象) are that this rate of inflation is tending to rise rather than to fall. If in the real world our money incomes go up at the same rate as prices, one might think that inflation does not matter. But it does. When money is losing value it lacks one of the qualities of a good money stability of value. It is no longer acceptable as a store of value; and it becomes unsuitable standard of deferred (延期的 ) payments. Nobody wants to hold a wasting asset(财产), so people try to get rid of money as quickly as possible. Inflation therefore stimulates(刺激) consumer spending, and prevents saving.

If you ask some people, “How did you learn English so well?” You may get a surprising answer, “In my sleep!”

These are people who have taken part in one of the recent experiments to test “Learn- While-Sleep’ methods, which are now being tried in several countries, and with several subjects, of which English is only one.

Specialists say that this sleep- study method speeds language learning greatly. They say that the average person can learn two or three times as much during sleep as in the same period during the day and this doesn’t affect his rest in any way. A word of warning, however, sleep-teaching will only strengthen in your mind what you have studied already while you are awake.

In the experiment, lessons were broadcast over the radio. Each lesson lasted twelve hours, from 8 p. m to 8. a. m.. The first three hours of English grammar and vocabulary were given with the student awake. At 11 p.m. a lullaby was broadcast to a sharp noise was sent over the radio to wake the sleeping student up for a few minutes to review the lesson. The soft songs sent him back to rest again while the radio went on. At 5. a. m. his sleep ended and he had to go through the lesson again for three hours before breakfast.

　　A film was at the Circle Five Ranch to film a Marlboro commercial. This is in 1868, before they prohibited cigarette ads from the equipment. The scene included an actor crossing a river on horseback, but when the time came to shoot, the man was too drunk to ride. Someone from the crews saw Winfield and asked him if he would ride the horse for $50. “Hello”, said Winfield, “for 50 bucks, I’ll jump that damn horse over the moon!”

　　To people in many countries, Winfield is just a familiar but nameless face, a simple cowboy with an advertising message about a connection between the West and a brand of cigarettes. Few people know that he is advertising message about a connection between the West and a brand of cigarettes. Few people know that he is 55, a family man who’s been married to the same woman for 37 years and has 5 children and 7 grandchildren. Most surprisingly, he’s a real, working cowboy who raises horses in his ranch in Wyoming

　　One of the most striking things about the Marlboro Man is that success hasn’t changed him much. He says that complete strangers sometimes come up to him and say, “I’ve met you. I know you from somewhere.” Whenever it happens, he says that he gets embarrassed.

　　While it is expected that students come to university with the ability to take a good set of notes, this is not always the case. High schools may not have demanded it, so good listening and note-taking skills may need to be developed.

TRY	Being a positive，attentive listener.
HOW?	Sit down in front and do not read or talk. Pay particular attention during the second 20 minutes（when you tend to lose it）and to the last minutes when a summary might be given or conclusions drawn.

TRY	Being a positive，active learner.
HOW?	Come to class with an interest in the material and with questions to be answered. You can develop these by thinking about and anticipate（预料）the lecture by pre-reading the text. （The latter is especially useful if you find yourself having difficulty keeping up with the material. ）

TRY	Getting accurate notes，with attention to the main idea.
HOW?	Look for points of emphasis from the professor’s verbal（口头的）language，body language，or careful reading of his notes. If you still feel you’re missing the main points，try showing your notes to a classmate or to the professor.

TRY	Leaving lots of space between ideas.
WHY?	Because you want lots of room to continue to add notes in your own words; this will help you learn the material on a deeper level by integrating（结合）it with what you already know. Also，the extra space will make it easier for you to find material when you are studying.

TRY	Going over new notes—10 minutes for each class—within 20 hours.
WHY?	Because you lose 50—80％of the material if you don’t.

TRY	Setting up your notes so you can study effectively from them.
HOW?	Leave wide left margins; here you will write questions from which to study your notes. Leave the back of the page blank，so you can fold the page，cover the notes，and answer the questions when studying.

　　A．the students might be interested in the first part of the class
