Recently, more and more schools have set up special organizations calling ¡°Waking Up Club¡±. They aim to encourage students get up early in the morning. A discussion about set up a similar organization in our school is organized by the Student Union last Monday. 120 students took part in it, of which 67 supported it because they believed it would help them develop good habits and make fully use of the morning time. Therefore, 48 students didn¡¯t think it was a good idea. They held that if to get up early or not depends on one¡¯s habit and it is not right to force us to do so. The rest of the students insisted on that everyone should follow their own wishes and their own lifestyles.

Known as the "crazy nest lady", Katie Deline-Ray isn't quite sure how many mini handmade harbors she's knitted for injured baby animals. But she's certain it's a lot.

Deline-Ray is founder of Wildlife Rescue Nests. She designs and makes strong, soft nests, which she donates to wildlife rescue groups to use as little recovery nests for sick and injured animals. She also shares her patterns for others to copy.

Deline-Ray began making her nests in 2013, while she was recovering from a broken hand, and "spending too much time online."One thing led to another -- as happens on the internet -- and she discovered a woman who was making similar nests for U.S.-based wildlife groups, as an alternative to the hard boxes used to contain the animals these groups care for.

"I thought it was such a wonderful idea and went searching to see whether there was anything like it set up for our wildlife rescues in Canada," she says. "To my surprise there wasn¡¯t. So I started contacting wildlife rescues and they agreed to try some out." Some modifications were made to already-existing patterns. And then, like a little bird taking its first flight, the nests went out into the world.

These days, Deline-Ray sends nests -- always for free -- to 60-some wildlife rescue groups, where injured birds and rabbits nestle inside the soft spaces while they are recovering.

Her future plans include making more nests, organizing new volunteer knitters and helping as many wildlife rescuers as possible take care of their animals in this charming way.

¡°I have no formal training with wildlife, just a great love for it.¡± Deline-Ray says. ¡°I love making the nests because I have a great admiration for all the amazing work the wildlife rescues do. I feel like I have a part in giving back to wildlife in a small way.¡±

A. admires what the wildlife rescues do

B. has designed the first nest pattern in the world

Dear Betty,

My roommate¡¯s family wants me to celebrate Thanksgiving Day with them in their home. I accepted the invitation, and I¡¯m excited about going, but I¡¯m a little nervous about it, too. The social customs in my country are different from those here, so I¡¯m a little worried about making mistakes.

Should I bring a gift, such as candy or flowers? Should I arrive on time or a little late? At the dinner table, how can I know which fork or knife to use? How can I let the family know that I¡¯m thankful for their kindness?

Yours,

Knowing Nothing

Dear Knowing Nothing,

It¡¯s a good idea to bring a gift when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always welcome, or you can bring a bottle of wine if you know the family drink it.

You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Don¡¯t get there early. If you are going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.

Try to relax at the dinner table. If you don¡¯t know how to use the right fork, knife or spoon, just watch the other guests, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, don¡¯t be shy about asking the person next to you; it¡¯s better to ask them than to be silently uncomfortable and nervous.

If you like the food, say so. Of course, you¡¯ll thank the host and hostess for the meal and for their kindness. It¡¯s also a good idea to send a card to thank them the day after.

Yours,

Betty

For Christmas last year, Marie¡¯s grandma wanted to get her something special. So Marie asked her grandma for her dream gift: a brand-new pair of UGG boots. All her friends had them.

On Christmas morning, Marie really got a pair of boots. They fit perfectly. The quality was superb. There was only one thing missing: the tiny label (±êÇ©) on the heel that says UGG.

Marie thanked her grandma. But she¡¯s only worn those boots twice ¡ª both times to visit her grandma. ¡°I would never wear them in public,¡± she says.

Marie¡¯s grandma would be heartbroken to know the truth. But at UGG headquarters (×ܲ¿), a room full of sales managers would be cheering.

Through clever marketing and expensive advertising, the makers of UGGs have convinced (ʹÐÅ·þ) Marie ¡ª and millions of others ¡ª that the name UGG has value far beyond what the homely slipper boots should really cost. UGGs, like North Face jackets, Nike sneakers, and other brand-name items are ¡°status symbols¡±. People pay double, triple, even 10 times more for brand names than for similar items. Is a pair of $400 True Religion jeans really better than the $18 Wranglers you can get at Walmart? Maybe the quality is a bit higher. Maybe they shrink less. But are brand names really worth the exorbitant prices? Some pricey brands do, in fact, use higher-quality materials that fit better and feel nice on your skin.

However, the truth is that the value of a brand has little to do with quality and a lot to do with status. A recent study by Consumer Reports found that some of the least expensive jeans are better made than the more expensive jeans. But that doesn¡¯t matter. Wearing a certain label tells the world ¡°I belong¡± or ¡°I can afford it.¡±

A few decades ago, the idea of a kid refusing to wear a pair of boots because the label was wrong would have seemed as crazy as talking on a phone the size of your hand.

Clearly, times have changed.

1.When she received the Christmas gift from her grandma, Marie seemed .

A. excited B. worried C. moved D. disappointed

While it is impossible to live completely free of stress, it is possible to prevent stress as well as reduce its effect when it can¡¯t be avoided. The US Department of Health and Human Services offers the following suggestions for ways to deal with stress.

¡¤Try physical activity.

When you are nervous, angry or upset, try releasing (ÊÍ·Å) the pressure through exercise or physical activity. 1.

¡¤Take care of yourself.

You should make every effort to eat well and get enough rest. If you easily get angry and cannot sleep well enough, or if you¡¯re not eating properly, it will be more likely that you will fall into situations of stress. 2.

¡¤Make time for yourself.

3. Don¡¯t forget, play can be just as important as work. You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun. Go window-shopping or work on a hobby. Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy.

¡¤ 4.

Stress can result from disorganization (ÔÓÂÒÎÞÕÂ) and a feeling that ¡°there¡¯s so much to do ,and not enough time.¡± Trying to take care of everything at once can be too much for you and, as a result , you may not achieve anything. Instead, make a list of everything you have to do, then do one thing at a time. 5. Set out to do the most important tasks first.

A. Bear in mind the most important task.

B. Schedule time for both work and play.

C. Check off each task as it is completed.

D. Make a list of the things you need to do.

E. For example, you could take your job as your hobby.

F. If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should consult a doctor.

G. Running, walking, or playing tennis are just some of the activities you might try.

Christmas Is Good For You ¡­ Really!!!

The Christmas holiday season gets a bad name when it comes to health, but this time of year can actually boost your mind and body. And here¡¯s how ¡­

1.____________

Studies have found that spending money on experiences increases happiness more than paying a large sum of money for material goods. Now new research shows this mood lift can come from simply making your list (and checking it twice): A 2014 Cornell study found that people who merely expect to make an up coming experiential purchase, such as ski lessons, report higher levels of happiness than those who plan to buy, say, a new tech gadget.

2.___________

Singing can reduce stress hormones and boost oxytocin, the ¡°love¡± hormone that promotes feelings of trust and bonding. Swedish research published last year found that certain aspects of singing make people adopt a calm breathing pattern, like that associated with yoga. Singing in a group can improve self-esteem and increase feelings of social belonging, which can ward off loneliness. Even if you are not accustomed to singing aloud Christmas tunes door-to-door, sing along with your kids or our partner to a holiday radio station while you go on a short trip or drive to visit families or friends.

3.___________

Waling about in the supermarket for about an hour can burn 200 to 300 calories, depending on your size; what¡¯s more, it¡¯s time you do not stick to your computer or television screens. Too much sitting increases your risk of everything from type 2 diabetes to cancer. The more ¡°incidental¡± fitness ¡ª stringing holiday fights, searching for an old album in the basement, bustling around the kitchen while preparing holiday dinners ¡ª you can squeeze into your day, the better off you will be.

4.___________

Instead of working with the modern instant communication apps, consider it an opportunity to write a personal note expressing how much the receiver means to you and how much you appreciate the help or guidance he or she offered. One study found that people who put down what they were thankful for each week felt more optimistic about their lives, exercised more, and even had fewer visits to physicians than people who wrote down things that annoyed them or neutral events.

5.____________

This sweet treat lowers LDL cholesterol (µ¨¹Ì´¼) and blood pressure, raises HDL cholesterol, and even improves cognitive function and memory. In 2012, the European Food Safety Athority issued a scientific opinion that said consuming 200mg of cocoa flavonoids(Àà»Æͪ) a day can contribute to healthy blood flow. A cup made with a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa can contain or even go beyond this amount. To minimize clumping, mix powder into milk that¡¯s really warm. Add spices like cinnamon and a small amount of sugar or honey to cut the bitterness.

Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are concerned about their own appearance and actions too much. Negative thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: What kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?

It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably. A person's self-concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a deep effect on all areas of their lives.

Shy people, who have low respect, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need faith that they are doing "the right thing". Shy people are very sensitive to criticism. It makes them feel inferior£¨×Ô±°£©. They also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise. A shy person may respond to a praise with a statement like this one: "You're just saying that to make me feel good, I know it's not true.¡± It is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.

Can shyness be completely got rid of, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determination since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self respect. It is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths. Each one of us has his or her own characteristics. We are interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our chances for a rich and successful life.
