It happens every night — bedtime. But what if you're not sleepy? Should you still go to bed if you are just going to lie there with your eyes wide open?
There are many reasons why you are not able to fall asleep. You might be excited by something you did that day. You might be excited about what you're going to do next day. Maybe you can't fall asleep because you don't like sleeping all alone in your room. All of these reasons are normal. However, there are some steps you can take to help you fall asleep.
One thing that can help is talking to a parent or another trusted adult about what you're thinking about at bedtime. For example, if you're nervous about taking a test, or upset about being teased (取笑) at school, it can really help to tell somebody. Knowing that somebody has heard you can help ease (宽慰) your mind so that you can rest.
It also helps to sleep in a comfortable bed in a quiet and cool room. If there's anything in your room that makes you feel afraid at night, like a picture that looks strange in the dark, be sure to ask one of your parents if it can be moved.
If you are usually sleepless around bedtime, doing certain things to relax beforehand (预先) may help you fall asleep when you go to bed. For example, take a warm bath, or listen to a story at least 30 minutes before you want to go to sleep. It also helps to go to sleep at the same time every night. As a result, your body will get the message that it's almost time to sleep.
（1）Four reasons are given to explain why you are not able to fall asleep. （2）If you are nervous about taking a test, you'd better talk to somebody. （3）The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to “the picture”.
（4）In order to fall asleep, you can listen to a story at least half an hour before bedtime. （5）The passage mainly tells us about the reasons of sleepless.
18. （20分） What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you must be an active person who enjoys life. Do you like blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and would rather follow than lead.
Colors do influence our moods (情绪). A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(令人压抑的). There was a black bridge over the Thames River, near London. The number of people who killed themselves on that bridge used to be larger than on any other bridge in the area -- until it was repainted green.[来
