Sleeping binge
Getting eight hours of shut-eye each night is generally recommended, but many people don’t. As the week rolls from Monday to Friday, they accumulate a sleep debt. Spending a few extra hours in bed on a Saturday morning, people assume, will help them “ catch up” on lost sleep. They’re likely right, “ Nobody knows how long the horizon is, probably a few nights, but studies show that recovery sleep in the short term does work,” says Dr. Winter, a member of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
Sleep banking
Recent data suggests that banking sleep in advance of a long night can actually offset (补偿) upcoming sleep deprivation(丧失). If you knew you were going to have to stay up all night on a particular day, for example, you could sleep for 10 hours a day for multiple days before the event, and be fine, Dr. Winter says. Just plan ahead.
Routine (惯例的)naps
A scheduled nap is healthier than catching up on or banking sleep. “ Because sleep extension can make you feel groggy (昏昏沉沉), I always recommend a short nap [if a person feels they need it ], at the same time, every day,” says Dr. Winter. He adds that 25 minutes is ideal. “ When you schedule a short nap, your body anticipates it and slows down, without falling into a deep dream sleep,” he says. That refreshing, scheduled break is better than an occasional weekend lie-in. “ The body likes routine,” he says, “ When it’s prepared, it works more efficiently.”

举一反三
By the way, very few countries have a Father’s Day, though some have Children’s Day, or a special day for boys and another for girls. More and more countries are having Mother’s Day, so maybe Father’s Day will also become popular before too long. Now, what do people in North America do on Father’s Day? The newspapers, radios, and TV tell children what they should do-buy a Father’s Day present for your father. They even tell a wife to buy a Father’s Day present-not for her father but for her husband, even if he is not yet a father. And they tell grandchildren to buy a Father’s Day present for their grandfathers.
The important thing to remember about Father’s Day is that American children can show their love to their fathers in a more open way.

A.there was a Mother’s Day | B.there was a Children’s Day |
C.people liked their fathers a lot | D.fathers were more important |

C.shopkeepers can get more money on Father’s Day than usual |

She or he is sending a message.The message says, “I care about you enough to spend an hour making cooking that you will eat up in 15 minutes if I let you.”
There is also something about the smell of home cooking.The smell of home cooking pleases people of all ages.It makes most of us feel good and loved----- even if we are the ones doing the cooking! Next time you smell a cake making, stop for a moment and pay attention to your mood(心情).
小题1:Why do fewer people cook now?

Since 2004, Obama has written and delivered thousands of speeches. These are usually praised for two reasons: he treats the audiences like intelligent(有智慧的) adults, and he is able to express complicated ideas in an easy, natural way.
Before becoming president, Obama was a lawyer, a college professor, and a successful writer---his two memories have become best-sellers.
What’s more, he has some secret weapons.
Teleprompter: Obama doesn’t go anywhere without his Teleprompter. The textbook-sized panes of glass holding the president’s prepared remarks follow him wherever he goes to speak.
Writing team: Obama has a team of people who write his speeches. The writers chat with Obama for hours about what he wants to say. They listen to recordings of past presidential speeches and seek advice from advisers. Obama usually edits(编辑)and rewrites the drafts(草稿)several times.
Tricks for lighthearted speeches:
Make fun of the guests: Obama starts his speech by gently teasing his guests. His opening lines draw the audience’s attention while giving them an opportunity to relax and laugh at themselves and each other.
Make fun of yourself: A good rule for speechmakers: If you’re going to make a joke about someone else, be sure to make one about yourself, too. Obama mocks(嘲弄) his own poor choices for filling the position of Commerce Secretary, saying, “No president in history has ever named three Commerce Secretaries this quickly.” In fact, his first two nominees(被提名人)for the position withdrew(撤出) their names for different reasons. In a process that had otherwise gone smoothly, the Obama Administration found it hard to deal with the problem of filling the Commerce seat.
小题1:Obama made the poetic and inspiring speech in 2004 as________.
A.president | B.a nominee for the presidency |
C.a senator | D.a secretary |
A.Difficult to understand. | B.Easy to understand. |
C.Different from others. | D.Interesting to say. |
A.a writing team | B.a teleprompter | C.humor | D.motivation |
A.Secrets of Obama’s successful speeches. |
B.Obama’s successful speeches. |
C.Obama’s way of making speeches. |
D.Problems of Obama’s speeches. |
Ok, you"ve probably never gone to the extremes of our last example (we hope), but most of us experience slip - ups like these on a daily basis. No matter how smart you may be, it doesn"t mean your brain won"t turn to Swiss cheese every so often, and no amount of e-mail reminders can help you remember where you left your TV remote or lucky penny.
But now, there is a new pair of eyeglasses that can help to find all those little things you know must be around somewhere : Let"s call it Vision 2.0.
The new glasses, which are being developed in a Japanese lab under the code name Smart Goggles,are similar to a Google search engine for your eyes. The high - tech glasses come with a camera that records everything you see on a daily basis, and boast built - in object recognition software that allows them to keep track of whatever comes across their field of vision. If you"ve got a collection of art sculptures that the camera can"t recognize immediately, no problem : Just say the name of each item, and the glasses will memorize them right away.
The Smart Goggles" superb tracking abilities mean that whenever you"re looking for your keys, your overdue library book, or yes, even your baby, all you have to do is to say the word and the Goggles" camera will show you the last time your desired object appeared on screen, telling exactly where you"ll be able to find it.
Though the glasses are still too big for general use, the research team in Japan believes that they"ll be able to make the modem glasses smaller to the size of normal glasses in the near future, making them the perfect new accessory for yourself or any other absent - minded Professor you know.
With these intelligent designs, you"ll never lose anything again. Except maybe your glasses.
小题1:The best title for the passage should be _______.
A.A Habit of Forgetting Small Things |
B.Usage of New High - Tech Glasses |
C.How to Find Little Things Easily |
D.Glasses Will Help Find Your Things |
A.You can"t find your watch before going to work. |
B.You can"t work out a math problem in given time. |
C.You don"t know how to deal with a naughty boy. |
D.You don"t know how to get to a hospital. |
A.They"re a search engine used on the Internet. |
B.They"re a camera with recognition software. |
C.They"re software used in computers. |
D.They"re sunglasses protecting our eyes. |
A.In China. | B.In America. | C.In Japan. | D.In France. |
Throughout weekends, you can join in endless activities. You may attend a weekend course to increase your knowledge, for example, listen to a lecture on ancient Egypt. You may also try various activities, such as short countryside trip, or you may want to go skiing on a cold winter weekend.
