A Good Night's Steep
Sleep plays a vital role in good health and well-being throughout your life.While you're sleeping,your brain is forming new pathways to help you learn and remember information.Although we all know the importance of getting a good night's sleep,not all of us know the best way of getting it.A sleep expert,Phil Atherton,gave some top tips for getting the most out of the night,which will leave you ready for action in the morning.
According to Phil Atherton,not eating a large meal before bedtime is important for getting a good night's sleep.The time difference between eating and sleeping should be at least three hours.So you'd better avoid eating any food three hours before bed,as it will lower your blood sugar during sleep and help minimize damage from too much sugar floating around.
It's also important to find ways to prepare your body for sleep.You can follow a routine like trying not to expose yourself to too much artificial light within 1 hour before bed,as your brain uses light to help set internal "body clock".Although it might seem unnatural to schedule your sleep,the purpose is to send a signal to your body and mind that it's time to sleep.
Another way to prepare your body for sleep is to get into a relaxed state by taking a bath or listening to soft music.Both of them will help to take the mind off the daytime pressures.
Having a suitable bed,especially a suitable mattress (床墊),is necessary for a good night's sleep.Sleep is a personalized activity,and we all adopt different sleeping positions.Finding the mattress that suits you will reduce back pains that can result from a poor sleeping position.The bed should be four to six inches longer than its tallest user,allowing for space to move around.
The recent research is pretty clear that a good night's sleep in a major component of good health.Since the start of the 21st century,studies have linked a lack of sleep to many diseases,such as diabetes and obesity.Taking action now will lead to long-term benefits for you and those around you.

Huttopia
Created in Europe, but tailored to perfection in Québec, Huttopia tents provide convenient, comfortable accommodation in 16 of Québec's 23 national parks. Built atop a 4 by 7 meters wooden platform, the walls and roof enclose a roomy space that can sleep up to 5 people. Beds, lighting, heating, a small fridge, dishes, and an outdoor two burner stove provide comforts. Open summer through fall, Huttopia tents can be booked for as little as $99 per night.
Tree Sphere
This creative option takes wilderness camping to a whole new level. Setting up camp in a Free Spirit Sphere you can sleep among the trees and stretch your wings in Qualicum Bay, Vancouver Island. Part tree house, part space capsule, founder Tom Chudleigh's handcrafted wooden spheres gently dangle in the breeze thanks to a series of ropes tied to the forest's cover. Suspended at 3.1, 4.3 and 4.6 meters off the ground, each of the three spheres offers comfortable and unique lodging for adults age 16 and over.

Anne is six years older than me. Growing up, we were very poor, and my mother worked evenings at a factory in a small town. Not seeing my mother much, Anne looked after me and my younger sister. During those hard years, Anne was always there for me, not only as a big sister, but as a mother and my best friend.
When I was seventeen and had no money, I thought my only chance of going to college was if I could win a scholarship. I had an important interview for such an award. Anne at that time was struggling, surviving on a part-time job as she put herself through the local community college after serving in the army. I told her of my interview. I asked her advice on what to wear and showed her my best outfit (裝束) and how I planned to be careful, how I sat so that the hole in the bottom of my shoes would not be seen, but I wasn’t sure what I would do if it rained.
Anne suggested that we go shopping, and we took the bus to the JCPenney store. We found a beautiful pair of leather shoes on sale. She told me to try them on, but I thought it was just for fun as neither of us had ever owned anything that expensive before. But Anne handed me the boxed shoes and said, “Here, I’ll buy these for you.”
“But . . .” was all I could say.
“You deserve them,” she replied. “This interview is important. I want to see you get that scholarship.”
I was speechless as I knew this was a lot of money for her, and she would probably have to eat nothing but noodles for at least a month.
I went to the interview and crossed my legs so that my beautiful new shoes shone with pride. I won the scholarship and became an engineer. Although they were nice leather everyday shoes, I didn’t wear them much because they were so special. Now, after 20 years have passed, I still have that pair of shoes with me, and I just wear them on those occasions when I need to feel special.
1.When the author was 17, Anne _____.
A. was serving in the army
B. was continuing her study
C. was a salesgirl at the JCPenney store
D. was working in a small company
2.The author went to the interview _____.
A. accompanied by Anne
B. wearing a pair of worn shoes
C. with confidence
D. with great anxiety
3.What would be the best title for the passage?
A. An important interview
B. A special pair of new shoes
C. Memories of poor childhood
D. Lifelong gratitude to a friend
