28、Ways to Finally Become a Morning Person
Calculate your perfect bedtime
The easiest way to wake up earlier in the morning is to get enough sleep.【1】: For a week, remember the number of hours you sleep, including weekends. Divide that number by seven to calculate your nightly need. Think about a time you've been on vacation or of a night you felt particularly rested—how much sleep did you get? Once you have that number, calculate backwards from the time you want to get up and plan to go to bed at that new hour.
Find out your stayawake things
Nighttime can go away fast, especially when you have a lot to accomplish. To be successful in having an earlier bedtime, you may need to set an alarm. And contrary to popular advice, you don't have to turn off the light right before bed.【2】, but reading a thriller may not be the best idea.
Create a morning to do list
Another good habit is to think about what you want to accomplish in the morning. Having a morning goal is the best motivation(动力).【3】This way you'll feel like you're on a task when you wake up, you'll get closer to your morning goal and you'll have a clear schedule to follow.
【4】
People who exercise are easy to sleep better than those who don't. Indeed, studies have shown a strong connection to a better quality of sleep for people who work out at least 10 minutes a day.【5】, which in turn helps fight with sleeplessness.
A.Praise yourself
B.Take some exercise
C.Reading is a great way to relax
D.Write three tasks you have to do the next day
E.Here's how to figure out your sleep needs
F.One reason: exercise reduces your stress levels
G.It can be difficult to develop a new habit even if you know the habit is positive and useful
29、Challenging work that requires lots of analytical thinking, planning and other managerial skills might help your brain stay sharp as you age, a study published Wednesday in the journal Neurology suggests.
Researchers from the University of Leipzig in Germany gathered more than 1, 000 retired workers who were over age 75 and assessed the volunteers’ memory and thinking skills through a battery of tests. Then, for eight years, the scientists asked the same group to come back to the lab every 18 months to take the same sorts of tests.
Those who had held mentally stimulating(刺激), demanding jobs before retirement tended to do the best on the tests. And they tended to lose cognitive(认知) function at a much slower rate than those with the least mentally challenging jobs. The results held true even after the scientists accounted for the participants’ overall health status.
“This works just like physical exercise, ” says Francisca Then, who led the study. “After a long run, you may feel like you’re in pain, you may feel tired. But it makes you fit. After a long day at work-sure, you will feel tired, but it can help your brain stay healthy. ”
It's not just corporate jobs, or even paid work that can help keep your brain fit, Then points out. A waiter’s job, for example, that requires multitasking, teamwork and decision-making could be just as stimulating as any high-level office work. And “running a family household requires high-level planning and coordinating(协调), ” she says. “You have to organize the activities of the children and take care of the bills and groceries. ”
Of course, our brains can decline as we grow older for lots of reasons-including other environmental influences or genetic factors. Still, continuing to challenge yourself mentally and keeping your mind busy can only help.
【1】Why did the scientists ask the volunteers to take the tests?
A.To assess their health status.
B.To evaluate their work habits.
C.To analyze their personality.
D.To measure their mental ability.
【2】How does Francisca Then explain her findings in paragraph 4?
A.By using an expert’s words.
B.By making a comparison.
C.By referring to another study.
D.By introducing a concept.
【3】Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Retired Workers Can Pick Up New Skills
B.Old People Should Take Challenging Jobs
C.Your Tough Job Might Help Keep You Sharp
D.Cognitive Function May Decline As You Age

32、阅读下面短文, 根据内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
There are many benefits of public transportation. For example, public transportation makes it easier for people to get where they want and need to go. It also helps people save money, as the cost of maintaining a working vehicle is often much more than the cost associated with public transportation. The frequency of traffic jams and accidents may also be reduced when a person uses public transportation.
One of the main benefits of public transportation is the fact that it makes it easier for people to get around. Without public transportation, many people — especially those without cars — would be limited in where they could go and what they could do. With public transportation, however, people can get to school and work, get to the grocery store and to doctors’ offices, and visit relatives, even if they do not own vehicles. Public transportation serves people of all ages and from all walks of life, ranging from families, including their children, to business people on their way to the office, to the elderly.
Often, people complain about the cost of public transportation when the rates are raised. When compared to the cost of buying a car, many people find that choosing to ride public transportation is a much cheaper option.
When public transportation is available, many people choose to use it instead of driving to work and school. This is true even of many people who own cars, as they may prefer to ride to work on a bus or train rather than deal with traffic jams and parking frustrations each day. When people make this choice, the result is less traffic on the roadways, which means fewer traffic jams and less pollution. In fact, the choice many people make to ride public transportation may even translate into fewer car accidents and vehicle-related deaths and injuries. Additionally, the use of public transportation also means less gas is consumed each year.
