You're not doomed to toss and turn every night. Although you might not be able to control all of the factors that relate to your sleep, you can adopt habits that encourage better sleep. Start with these simple sleep tips.

No. 1: Stick to a sleep schedule

Go to bed and get up at the same time every day, even on weekends, holidays and days off. Being consistent reinforces （加強） your body's sleep-wake cycle and helps promote better sleep at night. If you don't fall asleep within about 15 minutes, get up and do something relaxing. Go back to bed when you're tired.

No. 2: Pay attention to what you eat and drink

Don't go to bed either hungry or stuffed. Your discomfort might keep you up. Also limit how much you drink before bed, to prevent disruptive middle-of-the-night trips to the toilet. Nicotine, caffeine and alcohol deserve caution, too. The stimulating effects of nicotine and caffeine — which take hours to wear off — can ruin quality sleep.

No. 3: Create a bedtime ritual

Do the same things each night to tell your body it's time to wind down. This might include taking a warm bath or shower, reading a book, or listening to light music. Be careful of using the TV or other electronic devices as part of your bedtime ritual. Some research suggests that screen time or other media use before bedtime has impact on sleep.

No. 4: Get comfortable

Create a room that's ideal for sleeping. Often, this means cool, dark and quiet. Consider using room-darkening shades, earplugs, a fan or other devices to create an environment that suits your needs.

Your mattress and pillow can contribute to better sleep, too. Since the features of good bedding are subjective, choose what feels most comfortable to you. If you have children or pets, set limits on how often they sleep with you — or insist on separate sleeping quarters.

No. 5: Limit daytime naps

Long daytime naps can affect nighttime sleep — especially if you're struggling with poor sleep quality at night. If you choose to nap during the day, limit yourself to about 10 to 30 minutes and make it during the mid-afternoon.

If you work nights, you'll need to make an exception to the rules about daytime sleeping. In this case, keep your window coverings closed so that sunlight — which adjusts your internal clock — doesn't interrupt your daytime sleep.

No. 6: Include physical activity in your daily routine

Regular physical activity can promote better sleep, helping you to fall asleep faster and to enjoy deeper sleep. Timing is important, though. If you exercise too close to bedtime, you might be too energized to fall asleep. If this seems to be an issue for you, exercise earlier in the day.

No. 7: Manage stress

When you have too much to do — and too much to think about — your sleep is likely to suffer. To help restore peace to your life, consider healthy ways to manage stress. Start with the basics, such as getting organized, setting priorities and dividing tasks. Give yourself permission to take a break when you need one. Share a good laugh with an old friend.

Nearly everyone has an occasional sleepless night — but if you often have trouble sleeping, contact your doctor. Identifying and treating any underlying causes can help you get the better sleep you deserve.

1.Which of the following is helpful to have quality sleep at night?

A. listening to light music before bed

B. working out in the gym only in the day time

C. using expensive pillows that sell well

D. drinking lots of water instead of coffee before bed

2. Which of the following sleep tips is not mentioned in the passage?

A. Control your daytime sleep time.

B. Adopt healthy ways to handle stress.

C. Follow a flexible sleep timetable.

D. Schedule your daily physical activities.

3.According to the passage, in what situation do you need to contact your doctor?

A. You can not nap in the day time.

B. You frequently have trouble sleeping.

C. You do not fall asleep within 15 minutes.

D. You have too much to think about before bed.

4.What’s the purpose of this passage?

A. To provide advice on promoting better sleep at night.

B. To inform readers of different sleep habits before bed.

C. To offer tips on various relaxing activities before bed.

D. To convince readers of the importance of quality sleep at night.

America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways — education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the graying（老齡化）of America has made us a very different society — one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages.

A person’s age no longer tells you anything about his / her social position, marriage or health. There’s no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn’t as strong as it used to be. It doesn’t surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.

Many people say, "I am much younger than my mother-or my father- was at my age." No one says "Act your age" anymore. We’ve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.

1.It can be learned from the text that the aging of the population in America ______.

A．has made people feel younger

B．has changed people’s social position

C．has changed people’s understanding of age

D．has slowed down the country’s social development

2.The underlined word ‘one’ refers to _______.

A．a(chǎn) society B．America C．a(chǎn) place D．population

3."Act your age" means people should _______.

A．be active when they are old

B．do the right thing at the right age

C．show respect to their parents young or old

D．take more physical exercises suitable to their age

4. If a 25-year-old man become general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it _______.

A．normal B．wonderful

C．unbelievable D．unreasonable

科目：高中英語 來源：2016屆安徽皖南八校高三第二次聯(lián)考12月英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

To pollute or not to pollute? That is the question. In order to survive, we all need to cause pollution. Factories that process the food we eat, clothes we wear, and cars we drive have to cause pollution. The environment has the ability to absorb our waste or the pollution, but its absorption ability has its limits. If the pollution level is higher than what the environment can cope with, then that's the time when pollution is bad.

If the pollution level becomes too high, human health can be affected badly. Then, the productivity level of the sick people is low and the economy suffers. The economy suffers not only because of the lost productivity of the people, but also because the government must pay for the damage the pollution has done to its people.

This is the reason why the government prefers taxation policy. Imposing（征收）a tax on firms that pollute the environment can be considered a good strategy, as long as the tax covers all the external costs or the cost of the damage the firm has created during production.

Taxation, if enforced（執(zhí)行）really well, can make firms create a technology that may reduce pollution, if they find out that it will be cheaper than continuously paying the tax. The disadvantage of this policy, however, lies in the possibility that some big firms will find the tax cheap and then they will just produce more and pollute the environment more. If other small firms find the tax expensive, thus closing down, their production will be eaten up by those firms which can afford the tax.

Therefore, it is important that lawmakers in each country, when deciding to impose a tax on pollutant emissions, first review and analyze very carefully the real cost of the damage.

1. We can infer from the first paragraph that

A. for human beings pollution is unavoidable

B. it's not easy to figure out how bad pollution is

C. humans should reduce the use of everyday products

D. we can survive without causing pollution.

2.The underlined word "absorb" here refers to”____”．

A. reduce B. fit in

C. avoid D. deal with

3.What is the second paragraph mainly about?

A. The effects of pollution on human health.

B. The relationship between people and their government.

C. The effects of pollution on economic development.

D. The relationship between human health and economic development.

4.Which of the following can be the result of imposing a higher tax according to Paragraph 3 ？

A. Firms may reduce the prices of their products.

B. Firms may develop some environmental technology.

C.A big firm will be broken up into small firms.

D.A small firm will try to pass the tax on to consumers.
