How to Be Grateful
Has your mother or best friend told you that you’re an ungrateful person? 1. Do you keep thinking about the things you don’t have, instead of being thankful for what you do have? If so, then you need to work on being a more grateful person.
1. 2. This isn’t a religious (宗教的) thing. You don’t have to hold off on noting everything you’re thankful for until Thanksgiving. Every Sunday, get a notebook and sit outside for fifteen minutes while making a list of all of the things you’re thankful for.
2. Be grateful for your friendships. 3. You may come to think that your friends are kind and they’re just there, like the couch in your living room. If you take your friends for granted for too long, then they will slowly make their way out of your life.
3. Be grateful to your family. Your family is another thing you should be grateful to. Your parents might have even been the people who tell you that you should be more grateful. 4. Don’t let a day go by without telling your family how much you love them.
4. 5. Throughout history, imagine how many people have contributed to where you are now. Realizing that you couldn’t be what you are now if it weren’t for all of these people is an important step in being a grateful person.
A. Make a gratitude list every Sunday.
B. Friendships are very important in our life.
C. Be grateful for all of the good deeds done for your benefit.
D. Many people are guilty of taking their friends for granted.
E. Keep everything that you are grateful for in mind very day.
F. So, take the time to tell your family how much they mean to you.
G. Do you feel unable to appreciate the beauty, nature, and love that are all around you?
A new report says living in a city makes it harder for people to concentrate(集中) on some tasks. The research found that people who live in rural areas can focus better than people in urban areas. The study is from Goldsmiths College, which is part of the University of London. Head researcher Dr. Karina Linnell and her team made great contributions. They studied how two groups of people did the same "thinking tasks". The team went to a remote(偏远的) part of Namibia, southwest Africa, to study the Himba tribe. Himba people live a very basic life in the desert. They are still doing traditional farming. The team also studied members of the same tribe who had moved to the nearest town. Dr. Linnell said the tribe who lived in the desert did much better on the tests than those in the town. It's really interesting and shocking.
Dr. Linnell said their research may lead to changes in the way companies operate. In the future, workers may move from cities to live and work in the countryside. Linnell said there are too many things around us in the city that stop us from thinking about one thing for a long time. This means we do not work at our best. She asked, "What if, for example, companies realized certain tasks would be better carried out by employees based outside of the urban environment? There their concentration ability is better. "The past century has seen billions of people move from the countryside to big cities. In the future, the trend may not continue. If Dr. Linnell's research is true, this century might see many of those people return to the great outdoors. Let's wait to see what will happen.
1.What did Dr. Linnell and her team conclude from the study on the Himba tribe?
A. Himba people are cleverer than others.
B. Himba people aren't used to the life in city.
C. Himba people focus better in the desert
D. Himba people give up traditional farming.
2.What happened in the past one hundred years?
A. Many people returned to the countryside.
B. Big cities attracted many people to live and work.
C. Many people couldn't concentrate on one task.
D. The way companies operate changed a great deal.
3.The underlined word "outdoors" in the last paragraph probably refers to "______".
A. villages B. cities
C. towns D. countries
4.What is the main purpose of the text ?
A. to remind people to focus better.
B. to advise people to live in countryside.
C. to share a recent study with readers.
D. to show the bright future to readers.
Snoring(打鼾) is noisy breathing during sleep. It is a common problem among all ages and it influences about 90 million American adults. People most at risk are males and those who are overweight, but snoring is a problem of both genders, although it is possible that women do not present this complaint as frequently as men.
Snoring is often the loud or harsh sound that can occur as you sleep. You snore when the flow of air makes the tissue in the back of your throat vibrate(颤动) as you breathe. The sound most often occurs as you breathe in air, and can come through the nose, mouth or both two organs. It can occur during any stage of sleep.
About half of people snore at some point in their lives. Snoring is more common among men, though many women snore. It appears to run in families and becomes more common as you get older. About 40 percent of adult men and 24 percent of adult women are habitual snorers. Men become less likely to snore after the age of 70.
Sleeping on your back may make you more likely to snore. You may snore when your throat or tongue muscles are relaxed. And substances(物质) that can relax these muscles may cause you to snore. These include alcohol, muscle relaxants and other medicine.
Snoring can be a nuisance to your partner and anyone else nearby. You may even snore loudly enough to wake yourself up. Though, in many cases people do not realize that they snore. Snoring can also cause you to have a dry mouth when you wake up.
Light snoring may not disrupt your overall sleep quality. Heavy snoring may be connected with a risk factor in the heart disease, stroke and many other health problems. So never take it lightly.
1.Why do some people snore during their sleep?
A. Because there is something wrong with their throat.
B. Because noises are made when they breathe out.
C. Because the tissue in their throat is vibrating.
D. Because they use their mouth and nose to breathe meanwhile.
2.What can we conclude from the third paragraph?
A. Men suffer much more because of their snoring.
B. Women are easier to become habitual snorers.
C. Snoring may have something to do with genes.
D. The older you turn, the more seriously you snore.
3.In which part of a website can we read the passage?
A. Sports. B. Education.
C. Culture. D. Science.
