Lots of people find it hard to get up in the morning and put the blame on the alarm clock. In fact, the key to easy morning wake-up lies in resting your body clock 1. Here is how to make one.
● 2. In order to make a change, you need to decide why it's important. Do you want to get up in time to have breakfast with your family, get in some exercise, or just be better prepared for your day? Once you are clear about your reason, tell your family or roommates about the change you want to make.
? Rethink mornings. Now that you know why you want to wake up, consider re-arranging your morning activities. If you want time to have breakfast with your family, save some time the night before by setting out clothes, shoes, and bags. 3. That’s a quarter-hour more you could be sleeping if you bought a coffee maker with a timer.
? Keep your sleep/wake schedule on weekends. If you’re tired out by Friday night, sleeping in on Saturday could sound wonderful. But compensating on the weekends actually feeds into your sleepiness the following week, a recent study found. 4.
? Keep a record and evaluate it weekly. Keep track of your efforts and write down how you feel. After you’ve tried a new method for a week, take a look at your record. 5. If not, take another look at other methods you could try.
A. Get a sleep specialist.
B. Find the right motivation.
C. A better plan for sleep can help.
D. And consider setting a second alarm.
E. If the steps you take are working, keep it up.
F. Stick to your set bedtime and wake-up time, no matter the day.
G. Reconsider the 15 minutes you spend in line at the café to get coffee.

I work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.
I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.
I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.
The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.
Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.
A nervous night to be sure,but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH！The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.
1.What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according ro paragraph 1?
A.Efforts made in vain.
B.Getting injured in his work.
C.Feeling uncertain about his future.
D.Creatures forced out of their homes.
2.Why was the author called to Muttontown?
A.To rescue a woman.
B.To take care of a woman.
C.To look at a baby owl.
D.To cure a young owl.
3.What made the chick calm down?
A.A new nest.
B.Some food.
C.A recording.
D.Its parents.
4.How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?
A.It’s unexpected.
B. It’s beautiful.
C. It’s humorous.
D. It’s discouraging.

Secretary: What do you think about Liu Dong's application?
President: I think he's excellent. He knows how to organize adventures, and he knows a lot about history and nature.He once managed to arrange the trip to the Mogao Caves for him and his parents.
Secretary: That's true, but I think he's too independent. We need club members who can work well with others.
President: On the other hand, we also need people who know how to make plans and carry them out. I think Liu Dong can do that.
Secretary: But if he is not friendly, no one will want to take part in the activities he organizes.
President: You’re right. I have a suggestion. Let's offer him a trial membership for three months. We can ask him to try to be friendlier and more outgoing. At the end of three months, he can become a full member if we think he is fit for our club.
Secretary: I think that's a good idea. Let's send him an e?mail.
注意：1.词数100左右；
2．邮件的开头和结尾已给出，但不计入总词数。

The Mayan Indians lived in Mexico for thousands of years. The Maya were so bright that they achieved a lot. They had farms, temples and cities with many buildings. They knew much about nature and the world around them. This knowledge helped them to live a better life than most people of that time.
In ancient Mexico there were many small clearings in the forest. In each clearing was a village with fields of crops around it. The Maya planted seeds after they cleared the land. A farmer was able to grow crops that produced for several people. But not every Maya had to be a farmer. Some were builders or priests (祭司)．
The Maya believed in many gods. They built large temples to honor them. Skillful workers built cities around these temples. It was difficult because they had to carry all of the building materials themselves. Today, many of these ancient Mayan cities and temples are still standing.
Although the Maya worked hard to build the beautiful cities, very few of them lived in them. Usually, only the priests lived in the cities. The other people lived in small villages in the forests. Their houses were much simpler. Most Maya lived a simple life close to nature.
Around the year 800, the Maya left their villages and beautiful cities, never to return. No one knows why this happened. They may have died from a deadly disease. They may have left because the soil could no longer grow crops. The lost secrets of the Maya are still beyond the reach of modern people. They are still one of our greatest mysteries.
1.The Maya lived better than most people of their times because ______．
A. they had skillful workers
B. they believed in many gods
C. they knew better about nature
D. they could measure time correctly
2.It can be inferred from the passage that ______．
A. the priests were not highly respected by the ancient Maya
B. the ancient Mayan cities and temples were well built
C. the ancient Mayan people led a happy life in the cities
D. the ancient Mayan people died from a serious disease
3.The underlined word “They” in the last paragraph refers to ______．
A. the Mayan people B. the Mayan villages
C. the Mayan cities D. the lost secrets of the Maya
4.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A. The Cities of the Maya B. The Belief of the Maya
C. The Maya D. The Buildings of the Maya
