21、Rumination（深思）is a sleep—blocker because it keeps your mind awakened, especially in bed, when it’s dark and quiet. 【1】 Your brain’s job is to strengthen information and build new synapses（突触）by digging up moments and memories from your day, even the things that upset you.
The best time to deal with worrying is during the day when you have important things to do and don’t have time to get caught up in mental cycles for hours and hours. 【2】
Worry early.
Set aside 15 minutes during the mid—to late—afternoon just for yourself. Once the timer starts, give yourself the freedom to worry about one topic at a time. Think of it as a to—do list that you go through one by one, except what you’re checking off are topics you feel the most anxious about.
If you find yourself worrying during the day, tell yourself: “Look, I just need to put off this to the next emotional worry time.” 【3】 “I have this scheduled for tomorrow.” Do this two to three times a week until your rumination at night slowly starts to fade.
Practice helpful worrying.
On a piece of paper, create two columns labeled as “Problem” and “Solution”. Come up with a short list of current problems you’re dealing with. Focus in particular on what you’re likely to ruminate about tonight.
【4】 Remember, the goal is to make out a plan for how to get started with actionable steps for tomorrow, or within the next few days. You are not solving it completely.
Then fold the paper up and put it next to your bed. Say to yourself, “I have a plan.” 【5】 It frees your mind from puzzling over them at night.
A．There’s no magic switch to completely turn off rumination.
B．Like eating, drinking and breathing, we need sleep to survive.
C．Make sure you don’t get distracted by anything or anyone else.
D．Use this same technique if your worries pop up again at bedtime.
E．It turns out that you’ve already spent focused energy on these problems.
F．Here are two ways to stop ruminating at night and they only take 15 minutes to do.
G．Under “Solutions”, come up with the next one or two steps you could take to deal with each problem.

Combined with the drainage system and central axis design, it "gives a view of the ancient city with good urban planning in China", according to Wang Wei, president of the Chinese Society of Archaeology.
Xiwubi site, Shanxi
【4】In 2019, in a Xiwubi site in Shanxi province many bronze artifacts（青铜工艺品）aging back 4,500 years were unearthed. As the technology to manufacture bronze came to China, many rulers incorporated（融合）bronze into the unique ceremonial（礼仪的）system, so more and more complicated bronze artifacts were gradually developed.【5】

24、Beth Booker of Florida, turned to Twitter for help last week after seeing the images of her 78-year-old grandmother’s home in Fort Myers Beach, Florida being in water. In the days before Hurricane Ian struck her grandmother’s community, Beth and her husband helped her granny, Carole McDanel, prepare herself and her home for it.
Her granny wanted to stay where she had been living for more than two decades. She felt safe to stay because Ian was heading north for another city and the house had survived quite a few major hurricanes in history. In addition, the home contained priceless family memories and heirlooms (传家宝), among which were photos of Booker’s dad, who passed away when she was only five years old. After her dad’s death, Booker had to live with her grandmother, McDanel.
Once the storm struck, Booker received updates from her granny, who shared photos and videos showing flood started to fill the home. In her last phone call with granny, Booker told her granny to climb on the roof if the flood waters continued to climb. Unable to communicate with her granny any longer, Booker turned to Twitter for help with everything from searching for her granny to contacting local emergency officials.
The Fort Myers area was left devastated Wednesday after Hurricane Ian. On Thursday, as rescue crews came over to search for survivors, Booker’s husband and friend began their own search for her granny by boat. Just a few hours later, at 4 p.m. on Thursday, Booker tweeted the news that her husband and friend found granny sitting on her own sofa, where she was able to remain safe during the storm.
McDanel and Booker, who declined to be interviewed, said in a statement that they felt grateful for the support they had received and that they are calling for the world to continue the same energy and love into recovery and relief efforts for their community.

26、阅读下面短文，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My husband and I had booked a cruise（乘船游览）to celebrate our tenth anniversary. Having worked hard throughout our married lives, we felt like we needed a break and an adventure. As we had expected, while on board, we enjoyed good food and good company, while each stop brought us chances to explore new places and experience new adventures. My husband’s calmness throughout all these new experiences helped me to keep my nerves and fear of new things under control and enjoy myself too.
We were excited as the cruise ship pulled into its final stop, a small port in Mexico, in April 2020. Ryan and I had been zip lining（飞索）before, so when we saw signs for an ecopark boasting 11 lines in the middle of the jungle, we thought, “Let’s go for it.”
We got off the ship at 8 am and had to be back by 5 pm. We travelled through the thick jungle in an old jeep, enjoying the beautiful views and listening to the calls of the animals. By 10.30am, we were admiring the view from a high platform, waiting to cross the deep gorge（峡谷）by zip line-a distance of 700 metres. Ryan went first. It took about a minute for him to cross. Then it was my turn.
I’m petite, at 5ft 3in and 120lb, so wasn’t worried about putting too much weight on the line. I felt safe: I was wearing all the necessary safety equipment. The guide said, “Have fun!” and sent me out.
I was 150 metres up in the air, enjoying the beautiful view of the ocean to the left and the rainforest below. The first I knew that something had gone wrong was a loud bang, then silence. I suddenly realized that the zip line had broken.
Paragraph 1:
I was halfway across the gorge and began falling through the air.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
When he reached my tree, I shouted, “Please, baby, catch me if I fall.”
