“If you consider getting older with needing less sleep, it’s not true!” says Robert Oexman, D.C., director of the Sleep to Live Institute. Besides disease, medicine and pain, if partients complain of bad sleep, Dr. Oexman looks at their nighttime habits, where the problem almost always exists. So, how are you destroying your sleep?
Watch TV until you fall asleep
It has nothing to do with what you watch. It’s you who face TV’s bright light. That’s the reason. So even if you nod off in front of the TV, for example, you probably won’t stay asleep for long.
So an hour before bedtime, treat yourself like a baby: a warm bath. But no reading or writing on your computer before bed or in the middle of the night.
Exercise too close to bedtime
Remember how poorly you sleep when you have a fever, never really feeling rested? Well, heavy exercise too close to bedtime has the same effect--it raises your body temperature, so when you lay your sleepy head on the pillow, your body temperature is normal.
Eat fatty, heavy foods too close to bedtime
If you’ve ever tried to go to sleep after eating a fatty meal, you’ve probably found the discomfort of stomach acids（胃酸）less than good for falling asleep or staying asleep.
So try to eat your last meal of the day at least 2-3 hours before bedtime. Should you feel hungry before bed? So have a bowl of cereal or a small boiled potato. Or maybe have a serving of jasmine rice.

試題分析：這篇短文講述的是在人們的生活中，有一些壞習(xí)慣影響著我們的睡眠，短文中給我們列舉了三個，如看著電視睡覺、在睡覺之前鍛煉身體、在睡覺之前吃太油膩的東西等。在短文中作者還相應(yīng)的給了我們一些建議。
小題1:根據(jù)短文第一段的內(nèi)容可知，Robert Oexman 告訴我們，除了疾病、藥物和疼痛，生活中的一些不好的習(xí)慣會影響人們的睡眠。接下來作者從三個方面分析了這些習(xí)慣。故這里這篇短文的標題應(yīng)該是幫助解決睡眠問題。
小題2:根據(jù)短文第一段中Besides disease, medicine and pain, if partients complain of bad sleep, Dr. Oexman looks at their nighttime habits,可知，除了疾病、藥物和疼痛，還有一些壞的習(xí)慣會影響人們的睡眠。故這里應(yīng)該填bad habits。
小題3:根據(jù)這個表格中的內(nèi)容我們可以知道，表格中的這一列說的是那些壞習(xí)慣導(dǎo)致的結(jié)果。result 是一個名詞，意思是結(jié)果。
小題4:這里是短文中列舉的第一個壞習(xí)慣，在短文的第二段的標題Watch TV until you fall asleep可知，這里說的是有些人看電視直到睡著，即看著電視睡覺。故這里填watching。
小題5:根據(jù)短文第二段中So even if you nod off in front of the TV, for example, you probably won’t stay asleep for long可知，如果看著電視睡覺的話，即使你離開電視了，你也可能長時間睡不著。故這里填possible 或likely，他們的意思都是可能的。
小題6:根據(jù)短文第二段中，作者說完了人們的這個壞習(xí)慣后，給出了建議，So an hour before bedtime, treat yourself like a baby: a warm bath.即在睡覺之前，洗個熱水澡。故填bath。
小題7:根據(jù)短文第二段中But no reading or writing on your computer before bed or in the middle of the night.可知，在半夜睡覺前，不要在讀書或在電腦上寫作。這句話中in the middle of the night的意思是在半夜，故填midnight.
小題8:根據(jù)短文第三段中的內(nèi)容可知，如果你在接近睡覺的時間鍛煉身體，這就好像發(fā)燒一樣，你的體溫會上升，這樣的話要花費好幾個小時你才能睡好。故填well。
小題9:根據(jù)短文最后一段中If you’ve ever tried to go to sleep after eating a fatty meal, you’ve probably found the discomfort of stomach acids less than good for falling asleep or staying asleep.可知，如果睡覺錢吃得太多，或太油膩，你的胃會感覺非常的不舒服。故這里填uncomfortable，它的意思和短文中的discomfort是一樣的，即不舒服的。
小題10:根據(jù)短文的最后一句話Should you feel hungry before bed? So have a bowl of cereal or a small boiled potato. Or maybe have a serving of jasmine rice.可知，萬一在睡覺前感覺餓了，可以吃點東西。hungry 是一個形容詞，餓的。

There are many “floating markets” in Asia; maybe the most unusual is in Thailand(泰國), at a place called Damnoen Saduak. It’s open from six in the morning to the noon every day. People sell fresh apples, bananas and things like these from their boats.
