In our life, we will have a lot of time to feel low. If there’s one thing that ruins us, which 48 us from doing what we’re 49 capable of and prevents us from achieving our dreams, it is fear of 50.

Many of us go through our lives never knowing what we could have done and what has often been heard is that if only we hadn’t given up our 51.

What if you had given up on 52 to talk, walk, read, ride a bike, or any other achievements before you were even five years old? How 53 would your life have turned out if you’d given up instead of 54 with them?

Now, how different has your life been because of the goals you gave up? Because you were afraid that you would fail, how many experiences and opportunities have you 55 out on because you couldn’t get past that invisible barrier of fear!?

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

In our daily life, we have developed a lot of habits, such as, eating habit, study habit, reading habit, etc. However, taking the time to develop a sleep habit is probably the last thing on your mind and some sleep advice simply can’t be forgotten. 　　 1. .

Watching TV until you fall asleep

It has nothing to do with what you watch —TV news isn’t a better pre-sleep choice than TV series. 　　 2.　　 . The bright light keeps you awake all the night. So even if you nod off (in front of the TV, for example), you probably won’t stay asleep for long.

Sleeping with pets

3.　 . They get comfortable, and then they move. This goes on all night, and whether you admit it or not, it interrupts your ability to get the level of sleep needed to feel rested.

Eating fatty, heavy foods too close to bedtime

Heartburn (烧心，胃痛) strikes anyone of any age, but it’s the most common GI disorder (胃肠失调) in older adults. If you’ve ever tried to go to sleep after eating a fatty meal, you’ve probably found the discomfort of stomach preventing you from falling asleep or staying asleep.

4.　　　　

Remember how poorly you sleep when you have a fever—turning over and over again, never really feeling rested? Well, heavy exercise too close to bedtime has the same effect — it raises your body temperature so that your sleep is disturbed until your body temperature drops to normal, which may take several hours.

Accepting snoring (打呼噜) as normal sleep behavior

Snoring may seem as common as breathing, but it’s considered the biggest sleep killer, and it’s linked to several causes: sleeping on your back, being overweight, having a cold, drinking, or taking drugs. 　　 5.　　 . For the snorer, it disturbs sleep by awakening him/her every so often in order to breathe normally. For the partner, the noise can be unbearable.

A. Exercising heavily too close to bedtime

B. Here are some bad habits you need to get rid of

C. Most seriously, it’s caused by a dangerous illness

D. Here are some suggestions you’ll need to follow

E. Pets sleep most of the day, and they move a lot when sleeping

F. Reducing your body temperature before bedtime

G. Rather it’s the TV’s bright light that is the criminal

We have an amazing 99 friends at the age of 21--more than at any other time in our life, according to a new study. The typical 21-year-old’s social circle nearly hits 100, with 13 “best” friends, 17 “close” friends and 70 acquaintances.

The research undertaken by skin care brand Nivea found our social circle peaks at 21 as we meet people at work while keeping in touch with friends from school and university. But as our working lives take over，we lose contact with some old friends causing the number to drop to around 68 by the time we are 29 years old. Although this decline continues into old age，it slows down slightly for people in their 30s when many of them become first-time parents. It is believed that this is because people form new friendships while on the maternity ward(产科病房)，at post­-natal(产后) groups and when taking their toddlers(学步时期的小孩) to nursery.

The Nivea Closeness Report found the balance between our numbers of “best friends”，“close friends” and “acquaintances”，remains fairly constant throughout our lifetime. The average Briton has 18 close friends and a friendship circle，when all Facebook and other social networking “friends” are included，of 208 people. The report found that men have more than twice the number of close friends，with around 27 compared to women who have just 12. Londoners are also the most sociable，with 39 “close friends”，while the Welsh have just 11.

The age of 21 is such a critical junction in life and that’s why we have so many friends then. As we get older we become more selective and have fewer close friends with whom we talk about the things that are really important to us. Perhaps when we are younger，instead of having one trusted confidante(知己) we share different things with a variety of different people.

1.According to the Nivea Closeness Report，who have the largest number of close friends?

A．Canadians. 　　　 B．The Welsh.

C． Londoners.　　 　 D．Americans.

2.Older people have fewer friends than the 21-­year­-olds because　　　　　 .

A．they think friends are no longer important

B．they are more selective and cautious

C．they are less interested in making friends

D．they have little time to make friends

3.The research suggests that the number of friends in one’s late twenties reduces by　　　 or so, compared to that in one’s early twenties.

A．70 　　 B．20 　　 C．30 　　 D．200

4.Why does the number of one’s friends decrease slowly when he is about 30 years old?

A．Because they achieve success in business and get acquainted with more colleagues.

B．Because many parents make friends with people who have similar experiences in bringing up children .

C．Because they make more friends through Facebook or the Internet.

D．Because as they grow older, they have more confidantes instead of acquaintances.

We all have our ways of marking time. As a photographer, my life is measured from one story to the next. My oldest son was born in the middle of a long story about the Endangered Species Act. My daughter came along with a pack of gray wolves.

Twenty stories later, though, it’s the story in Alaska that I’ll remember best. It was the story about the loss of wilderness — and the story during which my wife Kathy got cancer. That’s the one that made time stand still. I stopped taking pictures on the day when she found that tumor (肿瘤). Cruelly, it was Thanksgiving. By Christmas, she had become very weak. Some days she was so sick she couldn’t watch TV.

Early examination saves time. But ours was not early. By the time you can feel it yourself, it’s often bigger than the doctor want it to be.

Cancer is a thief. It steals time. Our days are already short with worry. Then comes this terrible disease, unfair as storm at harvest time. But cancer also has the power to change us, for good. We learn to simplify, enjoying what we have instead of feeling sorry for what we don’t. Cancer even made me a better father. My work had made me a stranger to my three kids. But now I pay attention to what really matters. This is not a race. This is a new way of life and new way of seeing, all from the cancer.

In the end each of us has so little time. We have less of it than we can possibly imagine. And even though it turns out that Kathy’s cancer has not spread, and her prognosis (诊断) is good. We try to make it all count now, enjoying every part of every day.

I’ve picked up my camera again. I watch the sky, searching for beautiful light. When winter storms come, Kathy and I gather our children and take the time to catch snowflakes (雪花) on our tongues. After all, this is good. This is what we’re living for.

1.As a photographer, the author used to ______.

A. leave his daughter with a pack of gray wolves

B. express his love for his family in a special way

C. miss a great many important historical moments

D. devote much more to his career than his family

2.Why did the author decide to stop taking pictures?

A. To cure his own disease.                                    B. To spend more time with his wife.

C. To seek a better position.                                   D. To leave the wilderness alone.

3.What is the biggest change the cancer has brought to the author?

A. He treasured every bit of time with his family.

B. He has become a stranger to his children.

C. He takes his work more seriously.

D. He focuses more on medical care.

4.The author and his family catch snowflakes on their tongues probably because ______.

A. the snowflakes taste very good

B. snowflakes are what they feed on

C. they regard that as a way to enjoy life

D. there is beautiful light in the snowflakes
