For most teens, bedtime is just a childhood memory. Keep in mind the risks that come along with a lack (缺乏) of shut-eye; don’t wait to reintroduce a bedtime, and be sure to pass along these five ways to get a better sleep.

Don’t stay up late to study.

Teens are often found staying up late to study. Studies show sleep helps you understand and remember information. 1.If you think you badly need to study more, get up early and study in the morning instead.

2.

Sleeping with your smartphone nearby results in 21 minutes less sleep each night. If your phone is easy to reach, you’ll probably end up using it when you should be dreaming.

Turn your phone on airplane mode (飞行模式).

Even if your phone is out of reach, you may want to get up and check it when you hear it. Turn your phone on airplane mode. 3.

Create a bedtime routine (常规).

4.Having a bedtime routine will cause your body to prepare for sleep around that time each night. Set a time you think is proper and stick to it.

Use your desk for working and your bed for sleeping.

Getting into bed to do homework, read, or check your phone may make you feel good. 5.

A. Bedtimes aren’t just for babies.

B. Don’t sleep right by your phone.

C. Besides, sleeping by your phone may be harmful to your health.

D. But getting into bed should be a sign for sleep, not other activities.

E. Your texts won’t come until you turn airplane mode off in the morning.

F. That’s why teens often get poor grades when they cannot get enough sleep.

G. After all, your bed is likely one of the most comfortable spaces in your home.

In my memory,winters always used to be really unpleasant. You had to dress like a bear just to keep warm when you went outside.You were often cold,wet and no more than one step away from the thin ice on the lake.If you worked over time and went home in the dark,you would arrive home to an ice-cold house. And that would mean turning on the heating and waiting.

Fortunately, things don't have to be so challenging any more.Technology,engineering and design have developed,giving us new solutions to old problems.It means dealing with winter needn’t be like skating on thin ice.

With a smart thermostat(恒温器), our homes can be toasty when we need them to be. Many models go with smartphone APPs that allow you to regulate temperature from a distance, so we can warm up the house before we arrive home. According to techradar.com, a large technology news and reviews website, Tado's model has a voice control function,while the Nest “learns” your habits and heats the house for you.

Clothes have been given an upgrade,too.Electronic heated jackets and trousers heat up when you turn them on.What better way to keep warm in the dead of winter? At the touch of a button,or through an APP on our phones,the clothes produce heat from materials placed inside.Many models offer three levels of heating which stay warm for over 12 hours.

Finally, there is the headgear(头部装备) - Hats that have speakers which are included in the cloth using Bluetooth technology,so we can listen to our favourite music or,in some cases,have a phone call using the in-built microphone.All while keeping the head warm and avoiding coldness.

For many, the thought of winter used to be enough to make their blood run cold.But using technology,life needn’t freeze up.There’s no reason why winter can’t be really,really cool.

As a Chinese saying goes, “Taste is actually a memory of childhood”. Local specialty food may not be popular among all people, but it offers outsiders a glimpse of local culture and history.

Gongcheng “oil tea” is such a kind of food that would be considered “weird” by many first-time visitors to the remote county in the north of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Many people dislike its bitter and astringent（涩的）flavor when they take a sip.

“It felt like drinking Chinese herbal medicine. I never expected that I would gradually accept it afterwards, and even become addicted to it,” said a traveler surnamed Zhang who comes from Shijiazhuang in northern China’s Hebei province.

Langshan village is said to be birthplace of Gongcheng “oil tea” whose ideal ingredients are green tea and fermented（发酵）tea. The village has preserved well its buildings and roads dating back to late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), as well as its traditional way of making the special tea.

Lin Fengyou, 60, introduced the cooking process. She looks younger than her age, and attributes this to the benefits of drinking “oil tea” throughout the year.

The first procedure is to use a wooden hammer to pound the tea while heating it in an iron pot, and then add edible（可食用的）oil and boiled water afterwards. She filters off the solid residues（余渣）, and pours the glue-like green tea soup into bowls. Then, she adds salt, caraway seed（葛缕子籽）, green onion, dried rice, fried groundnuts, sliced taro（芋头）and fried beans.

The taste of the “oil tea” is a mixture of the distinctive（特有的）flavors of all its ingredients. Local people usually eat it together with glutinous rice（糯米）balls, rice dumplings and glutinous rice cake.

The villagers consume “oil tea” three times a day. The tea soup is a healthy and refreshing food. “The tea soup to us is coffee to Westerners”, said Lin. “But it is tastier.”

1.Many first-time visitors may find “oil tea” ________ when taking a sip.

A. popular　　 B. beneficial

C. addicted　　 D. strange

2.What can we learn about Lin Fengyou according to the passage?

A. She thinks drinking “oil tea” throughout the year makes her look younger.

B. She is one of the reasons why the special tea has been preserved.

C. She never expected that she would gradually accept “oil tea”.

D. She drinks “oil tea” three times every day and considers coffee tastier.

3.Which is the correct order of cooking “oil tea” according to Lin Fengyou?

a. pour the glue-like green tea soup into bowls

b. heat the tea in an iron pot and pound the tea

c. add salt, caraway seed, green onion, dried rice, etc

d. add edible oil and boiled water

e. filter off the solid residues

A. acebd　　 B. dbace

C. bdeac　　 D. beadc

4.Which column is this passage probably taken from?

A. Culture & Education　　 B. Entertainment

C. Health　　 D. Travel

In my memory, playing the shuttlecock( B! f)game was one of my favorite things during my childhood. My hometown is in northeast China where the winter is very long-almost five to six months. Playing the shuttlecock outside was the main game in winter. Because I liked to play this kind of game very much, the shuttlecock became my good friend who was always around me in the long winter.

How the game was played

Actually, this game was very simple. In a word, it just was played by a person who kicked the shuttlecock with his or her foot (right foot or left foot)and kept it from dropping down on the ground as long as possible

Sometimes we were divided into two teams, and each team had one, two or more persons. Then we had a match to see which team could keep playing for a long time(usually we counted the number of the kicks). The team that could keep playing much longer would win.

How I made the shuttlecocks

It was easy to make them by hand. At that time, I really didn't know where I could buy a shuttlecock. Therefore, I always made them by hand and by myself(I didn't realize that they might be a kind of folk art, so I threw all of them away when I left the primary school)I used chicken feathers to make the shuttlecock. Particularly, I preferred to use rooster feathers because of their colors. Sometimes, I also used some thread, which was made of hemp, flax, or some similar things to make the shuttlecock, if I didn’t find chicken feathers.

For the small metal base, I usually chose two or three ancient Chinese coins with a hole in the middle. I just put the chicken feathers into the hole of the base, and then tied them together very well.

1.What can we know about the writer?

A. It is warm in her hometown in winter

B. She only played the shuttlecock in winter

C. The shuttlecock was one of her favorite games

D. With the shuttlecock. she needed no other friends

2.Why did the writer make shuttlecocks by herself?

A. She had no extra money

B. Nobody sold shuttlecocks

C. Shuttlecocks were easy to make but hard to buy

D. Shuttlecocks made by hand were considered a kind of folk art.

3.To the writer, the best material for making a shuttlecock was____

A. new coins　　 B. bird feathers　　 C. some thread　　 D. rooster feathers

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Shuttlecocks made of feather

B. How to play shuttlecocks

C. My shuttlecocks

D. My childhood
