26、What to Do If Your Child Can’t Sleep
Sleep issues are not particular to infants and toddlers, but can linger well into the school-going age bracket. If parents have reached the stage where their older child doesn’t sleep well, they may feel resigned to the situation – and it’s true that the older the child is, the more difficult it may be to change deeply rooted sleep associations and expectations – but there’re still some things you can do.
Sleep strategies – Explain: Talk to your child about the changes that you intend to make. Do this during the daytime, on a walk or over lunch. Let your child be involved in the decisions to give them a sense of control over the situation. Ask for their input, suggestions and their own impressions of what they would like their bedtime to include. Then rearrange the bedroom together, or simply choose the books and pajamas.
Environment: Make sure your child’s bedroom is a calm, safe place. Avoid too many distractions or stimulating activities in advance of sleep. Keep electronics and televisions out of the bedroom and limit their use at least 1-2 hours before bedtime, as using gadgets shortly before sleep can make it difficult for your child to “switch off”. If lots of non-sleep time is spent in the bedroom, the room itself does not represent the big separation that is sleep.
Diet and exercise: Outdoor exercise and fresh air are significant components to healthy sleep, and at least one hour a day is the recommendation. Don’t do this too close to sleep time though, as that’s when you need to be helping relax your child’s body, not stimulate it.
A growing child will need good sleep, so they need three structured meals and plenty of water throughout the day. But sugary or processed foods should be avoided. Allow them time to digest the food they’ve eaten before having them go to bed, although warm milk can help promote sleep.
【1】According to the article, the underlined word “bracket” in paragraph 1 probably means _____.
A.a kind of basket
B.a particular range
C.a kind of relationship
D.the name of an age group
【2】According to the article, why should parents involve their children in the decision-making about sleep issues?
A.To strengthen their connection with their children.
B.To warn their children that they should sleep well.
C.To inform their children that some changes about their sleeping habits will be made.
D.To make the children feel they have the ability to make their own decisions about their sleep issues.
【3】If parents want their children to sleep well, which food should they try not to give their children?
A.Boiled eggs.
B.Candy bars.
C.Warm milk
D.Homemade dumplings.
27、Scientists announced that they had found the gravitational waves(引力波)that confirmed a prediction made by Albert Einstein a century ago.The discovery,made with the Laser Interferometer Gravitational—Wave Observatory, known as LIGO,is the milestone(里程碑)in a decades—long search for signs of this phenomenon."The discovery will open a new window onto the universe,"said David Reitze,executive director of LIGO.
Since humans first watched skyward,we have relied on light of all wavelengths to describe the universe.The light that could be seen first showed the starry heavens,while infrared(红外线的)waves allowed us to see older and more distant stars.
But now,researchers will be able to sense the universe in a whole new way: with their "ears"."We can hear gravitational waves.We can hear the universe,"Gabriela Gonzalez,LIGO's spokeswoman at Louisiana State University,said."That's one of the beautiful things about this: We are not only going to be seeing the universe,we are going to be listening to it."
Gravitational waves,which Einstein predicted as part of his general theory of relativity,occur as objects accelerate or decelerate through space,much the way a boat moving on a lake sends waves across the water's surface. But they're so tiny that until now it's been nearly impossible to find them,even those caused by something as large as a planet moving around the sun.
To pick up this signal,scientists have to look for violent events in the universe.This particular signal appears to have been caused by a collision.That occurred about 1.3 billion years ago between two black holes,holding 29 and 36 solar masses(太阳质量).
Fiona Harrison,chair of Caltesh's division of physics,mathematics and astronomy,guessed that hundreds of new events would be found over the next few years,allowing scientists to perform a range of different types of studies. "There are probably many events we haven't dreamed of and this is just the beginning,"she said.
【1】Why did Gabriela Gonzalez think LIGO's discovery important?
A. It confirmed Einstein's scientific prediction.
B. It allowed scientists to see more distant stars.
C. It changed traditional ideas about the universe.
D. It offered different way to study the universe.
【2】It's hard to find gravitational waves because they .
A. are too far to be felt
B. are too weak to be observed
C. are disturbed bu other planets
D. disappear soon after they happen
【3】Which of the following would scientists consider to be a violent event?
A. Hearing the universe.
B. Searching for infrared waves.
C. A collision between black waves.
D. A planet moving around the sun.
【4】It can be concluded that .
A. gravitational waves also exist in objects at rest
B. there's a long way to go in studying the universe.
C. gravitational waves show the beginning of the universe.
D. scientists began studying gravitational waves in recent years.
28、What is it?
KindSpring has created a series of 21-Day Challenges designed to help individuals and groups grow in values that help create positive change. Regardless of profession, age, culture or geography, when we try to cultivate(培养) certain values we create a ripple effect(连锁反应) that has the power to transform our lives and the world for the better. When we practice these values together over and over again, our efforts encourage and strengthen each other in remarkable ways. Each of our 21-Day Challenges focuses on a specific value — from kindness to mindfulness. Click here for more information.
How does it work?
A small daily commitment + a daily prompt(提示)+ a process for communication. Each 21-Day Challenge invites participants to carry out one small daily action related to the main theme. Every day for three weeks a unique idea is emailed out that serves as a prompt. Participants are encouraged to carry out the act and share stories of their experiences in both online and offline spaces. You can sign up to participate as an individual or you can “host” a challenge for a group you belong to. The challenges were developed for workplace, school/college and family environments, but are broadly usable. Any group is more than welcome to take them on. At the end of 21 days, you may continue the practice with your group, take on a new challenge, or even design your own. There is no charge for any of our services. All the challenges are offered as a gift. Five steps to host a challenge.
Why should we do it?
The 21-Day Challenges are all designed to fit the pace of modern day life. They are not very time-consuming(耗时的), and in most cases demand less than five minutes a day. Twenty-one days certainly can’t change everything, but it can begin a new way of being. You are invited to bring these practices to your company, school, community center, or family. Get started with joining a challenge or hosting one here. Let us know if you have questions—we’re delighted to help any way we can!

29、The COVID-19 has led to a great demand for bikes and biking. Bikes stores are struggling hard to keep up with the demand. In the United States, bike sales have seen their jump since the 1970s. Sales of adult bikes in April of 2020 were three times as high as last year. The situation is similar in Asia and Europe. Around 90% of the bikes sold in the US are made in China. But because of the COVID-19, even the normal supply of bicycles wasn’t being created. That demand began to go up in mid-March, as people began looking for ways of getting around that didn’t involve crowded public transportation. Because biking happens in the open air, and the chance of catching the disease while riding is very low.
Biking has also grown more popular because it is one of the few forms of exercise allowed in many lockdowns. With gyms and fitness shut down, biking fills a need for many active people. Families appreciate biking, too. With school closed and kids unable to hang out with their friends, biking is a welcome activity. Bikes are also practical. Many cities are seeing this as an opportunity to make their streets safer and greener. Cities around the world are adding mils and miles of bike lanes to their streets to encourage biking. New York says it will close off up to 160 kilometers of roads so they can be used by bikers and walkers. Paris has set up over 650 kilometers of new bike lanes. The United Kingdom plans to double its number of bike lanes. In Milan, Italy, 35 kilometers of roads have been metamorphosed.
Though many of these bike lane additions are temporary, and some people assume these additions seem to destroy the overall beauty of cities, if changes in biking habits become permanent because of additions, they could seriously cut down car traffic and help make cities a lot greener.
【1】What can we conclude about the present bike situation?
A.It is more expensive.
B.It is safer than a car.
C.It is in short supply.
D.It is all made in China.
【2】What does the underlined word “metamorphosed” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Repaired.
B.Changed.
C.Protected.
D.Designed.
【3】What is the author’s attitude toward the bike lane additions?
A.Negative.
B.Doubtful.
C.Indifferent.
D.Positive.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A.Increasing Interest in Biking
B.Ride Bikes, Clean the Earth
C.More Bikes, Fewer Traffic Jam
D.A Great drop for Bike Exercise
