61．  。                                                    

At the first signs of oncoming winter, many of us look for any excuse we can get to stay in bed. But hibernating（冬眠）indoors isn't the only way to stay warm– here are far healthier ways to heat up, many of which even come with added health benefits.

62．  。                                                   

Spending time socializing could make you feel physically warmer than being alone. A study conducted by the University of Toronto researchers found that social absence literally feels cold. So despite the cold temperatures and the temptation to hibernate, make an effort to spend some time with your friends or partners.

63．  。                                                   

Make an effort to exercise and you'll get benefits and maintain a healthy weight. Moving will increase blood circulation throughout your body, which can help you stay focused, handle stressful situations and, of course, warm up. That's because when it's cold out, circulation in parts of the body, like the fingers, decreases, which is why those extremities（四肢）are often the first to feel cold when the temperature drops.

64．  。                                                   

Like tea, a hot soup can warm you from the inside out. But it could do more than help you heat up – soup is filling, which means it could help if you’re trying to cut calories. A 2007 Pennsylvania State study found that participants who first ate soup before their lunch main dish reduced their calorie intake by 20 percent, compared to the soup-less people. Start with a fiber-filled soup to cut your calorie-intake and warm up.

65．  。                                                   

Escape the cold with a warm soak in the tub – and sleep better, too. That’s because our body temperatures naturally cool down around the time we should go to sleep. Health.com reports that taking a nice warm bath a couple hours before bedtime can raise your body temperature. Soak your tension away and help you feel more relaxed.

　Memory, they say, is a matter of practice and exercise. If you have the wish and really make a conscious effort, then you can quite easily improve your ability to remember things. But even if you are successful, there are times when your memory seems to play tricks on you.
　　Sometimes you remember things that really did not happen. One morning last week, for example, I got up and found that I had left the front door unlocked all night, yet I clearly remember locking it carefully the night before.
　　Memory “tricks” work the other way as well. Once in a while you remember not doing something and then find out that you did. One day last month, for example, I was sitting in a barbershop waiting for my turn to get a haircut, and suddenly I realized that I had got a haircut two days before at the barbershop across the street from my office.
　　We always seem to find something funny and amusing in incidents caused by people’s forgetfulness or absent-mindedness.
