Did you sleep well last night? Maybe many people will answer: No. In fact, in the world about one in three people

do not have good sleep.

46

you say you do not have good sleep, it means waking early and not getting back to

sleep, often interrupted short period of sleep, or hours of wakefulness. Y

ou

47

get tired, worried, and anxious.

Y

our memory and ability to remember things will be

48

.

Then what should you do when you have

the trouble? Do not worry about it too much. First, let?s see whether you

can sleep yourself. The ways are as follows:

First,

49

that your bedroom isn?t too cold or too hot. Keep it dark and quiet.

Second, check your lifestyle:

Do not drink tea, coffee, cola or chocolate four hours before

50

. Drink less liquid so that you can have no or

fewer visits to the toilet.

Set your body clock well by getting up and going to bed at the fixed time every day. Y

ou

51

take any

daytime naps.

Develop a relaxing bedtime habit. Read or

52

music, then take a warm bath. If you really can not sleep, try

some bread, rice

53

milk. They will help you fall asleep.

Go for a daily walk. Natural light help you to put your body clock into correct habit,

54

do exercise outdoors

if you can.

Forget the worries of the day. Write down any worries, thoughts or questions before you go to bed. With these

written down, you will have

55

to think about and your sleep will become easier.

especially for those who have never traveled a great deal. Foreign

46

can be very educational for anyone if

he is interested enough to make preparations beforehand. Learning the language of the new country would be difficult

for the traveler,

47

the benefits of such an effort would become obvious immediately

48

his arrival. It may

not seem important to him when he comfortably stays at home, but knowing how to

49

a meal or book a room is

necessary for the newcomer in a strange country. Without knowing the language, it is very difficult

50

the

stranger to understand the people of the new country and their customs.

Of course, in our small world it is often possible to find someone

51

understands our own, but this is only

second-best for the traveler. To be sure, he can see places and things

52

the use of a language, but places and

things

53

not the heart of any country. To get the greatest benefit from a trip

54

another country, it is how

important for the visitor to

55

an understanding of the language.

Fire can help people in many ways. Fire can heat water,

1warm

your house, give light and cook food. But

fire can burn things too. Nobody knows

2 how

people began to use fire. One story from Australia tells about a man

a very long time ago. He 3 went up to

the sun by a rope and brought fire down.

Today people know how to

4 make a fire with matches. Children sometimes like to play with them. But matches

can be very

5 dangerous

.

Fire kills people every year. So you must be careful

6 about matches. Y

ou should also learn to

7 put out

fires. Fires need oxygen. Without oxygen they die. There is

8 oxygen

in the air. Cover a fire with water, sand, or in

an emergency

, with your coat or a blanket. This keeps the air

9 from

a fire and kills it.

Be careful with fire, and it will help you. Be careless with fire, and it might

30hurt

you.

Many people would agree that stress is a major problem

1

modern life. It is certainly true that worry and

quarrel can cause all kinds of illnesses, 2

backache to severe headaches, or even more serious complaints such as

high blood pressure.

Many of us think

3

stress as

4

that other people impose

5

us. We often complain about how other

people put us

6

pressure. But we should try not to let such pressure

7

us. We should not forget that we are

largely responsible for some of the stress ourselves. We sometimes take

8

more work than our bodies and our

minds can handle. We should learn to

our limitations. We should

Many students find the experience of attending university lectures to be a confusing and frustrating experience. The

lecturer speaks for one or two hours, perhaps

46

the talk with slides, writing up important information on the

blackboard,

47

reading material and giving out assignment. The new student sees the other students continuously

writing on notebooks and

48

what to write. V

ery often the student leaves the lecture with notes which do not

catch the main points and

49

become hard even for the students to understand.

Most institutions provide courses which assist new students to develop the skills they need to be

50

listeners and not-takers. If these are unavailable, there are many useful study-skills guides which

51

learners to

practice these skills independently. In all cases it is important to

52

the problem before actually starting your

studies.

It is important to acknowledge that most students have difficulty

53

acquiring the language skills required

in college study. One way of

54

these difficulties is to attend the language and study- skills classes which most

institutions provide throughout the academic year. Another basic strategy is to find a study partner

55

it is

possible to identify difficulties, exchange ideas and provide support.

Modern zoos are very different from zoos that were built fifty years

1

. At that time, zoos were places

2

people could go to see animals from many parts of the world. The animals lived in cages that were made

3

concrete with iron bars, cages that were easy to keep clean.

4

for the animals, the cages were small and impossible to hide in. The zoo environment was

5

natural.

6

the zoo keepers took good care of the animals and fed them well, many of the animals did not thrive; they behaved in

strange ways, and they often became ill.

In modern zoos, people can see animals in more natural habitats. The animals are given more

7

in large areas

so that they can live more

8

as they would in nature. Even the appearance of zoos has changed. Trees and grass

grow in the cages, and streams of water flow

animals live in.
