Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.

During the hours when you labour through your work, you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people that peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues （自言自语）as “Get up , John ! You’ll be late for work again !” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.

You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can make your life fit it better. Habit can help. Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to . If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle , but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point .

Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy for your sharper hours .

1.If you want to work better at your low point in the morning, you should 　　 .

A. change your energy cycle 　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　 B. overcome your laziness

C. get up early than usual 　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　 D. go to bed earlier

2.You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will 　　　　 .

A. help to keep your energy for the day’s work

B. help you to control your temper early in the day

C. enable you to get your energy on your routine work

D. keep your energy cycle under control all day

3.What’s the best title of the passage?

A. Change Your Habits 　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　 B. Save Your Energy

C. Daily Energy Cycle 　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　 D. Temperature-and-Energy Peak

4.The text is probably taken from a ______.

A. news report　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 B. research paper　

C. medical textbook　　　　　　　　　　　　 D. fashion journal

Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle (能量周期).

During the hours when you labour through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening.

You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam (振作精神) and work better at your low point.

Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn (呵欠) and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine (例行的) work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.

Getting up in a cold winter morning is even a difficult thing to do and doing some exercise outdoors seems a tough task. 1. . People who run outdoors simply need to dress in the appropriate clothing.

Running in the cold actually helps burn more calories compared to the same activity done indoors. Cold weather basically requires the body to work harder to achieve perfect temperature for efficient functioning.

Cold winter weather is a common excuse for people to get lazy and stay indoors. Some people also eat a whole lot when it’s cold outside. 2.. With these, the body’s metabolism(新陈代谢) will also slow down and eventually result in weight gain. When running is done, possible weight gain may be prevented.

3. When the temperatures are freezing and low, the body’s metabolism will also slow down and the only way to promote blood circulation is to do some exercise like running.

Having depression or a sad mood is common during the winter months. 4.　 Doing some running will also help to lift spirits up and make people happier.

Running activities basically help the body become healthy and strong regardless of indoors or outdoors. The additional thing is that the body needs extra work to knock back the freezing temperatures. 5..

A.Good blood circulation promotes metabolism

B.Running outdoors is also good exercise for the heart

C.With this, people will not only become healthier but also happier

D.The changes lead to people feeling down during the cold winter months
