Just a Quick Nap（打个盹儿）
　　Do you feel a little sleepy after lunch? Well, that’s normal. Your body naturally slows down then. What should you do about it? Don’t reach for a coffee! Instead, take a nap.
　　It’s good to have a daily nap. First of all , you are more efficient（有效的） after napping. You remember things better and make fewer mistakes. Also, you can learn things more easily after taking a nap. A nap may increase your self-confidence and make you more active. It may even cheer you up. But, there are some simple rules you should follow about taking a nap. First, take a nap in the middle of day, about eight hours after you wake up. Next, a 20-minute nap is best. If you sleep longer, you may fall into a deep sleep. After waking from a deep sleep, you will feel worse. Also, you should set an alarm clock. That way, you can fully relax during your nap. You won’t have to keep looking at the clock, so you don’t oversleep.
　　Now, the next time you feel sleepy after lunch, don’t get stressed. Put your head down, close your eyes, and catch forty winks.
【小题1】 After taking a nap, you may feel more 　　　　.

C．sleepy	D．excited

【小题2】The proper period of time for taking a nap is 　　　.

A．the shorter the better

  Computers can injure you. Most other injuries happen suddenly. For example, if you fall off a bike and break your arms, it happens very quickly. But computer injuries slowly.

　You probably know how to ride a bike safely. Now learn to use a computer safely.

Your eyes

　Too much light can injure your eyes, so never sit too close to a computer screen. Your eyes should be at least 50 centimeters from the screen. Remember to look away from it sometimes. This gives your eyes a rest.

　When you use a computer, the window should be on your left or your right. If it is behind you, the light will reflect on (反射) the screen. If the window is in front of you, the sun and the screen will both shine into your eyes.

Your hands and wrists (手腕)

　　Hand and wrist injuries can happen because the hands and wrists are moved in the same way hundreds of times. If you use a keyboard for a long time, follow these three rules: 1) Rest your wrists on something. 2) Keep your elbows (肘部） at the same height as the keyboard. 3) Stop something and exercise your hands, wrists and fingers in a different way.

Your back

　　Some people sit for many hours in front of a computer. If you sit in the wrong way, you can injure your back or your neck. So you should sit with your back straight. The top part of the screen should all be in front of your eyes. Your forearms（前臂）, wrists, hands and the upper（上部） part of your legs should all be parallel (平行) to the floor. If you are sitting for a long time, get up every 30 minutes and exercise your arms, legs and necks.

　Enjoy your computer, but use it safely.

Dear Ronny,
　　Years ago you came to me for help. You said, "Grandpa, how could you do so   【小题1】  in your life? You're still active to your life, but I'm already tired of   【小题2】 for my life. How can I get the same thing that you've got?"
　　I didn't know what to say to you. But when I know there are few days left for me, I tell   【小题3】  that I should give you an answer. So here is what I believe.
First, you should know that life is filled(充满) with   【小题4】 , and many of them are good ones. If you don't keep your eyes   【小题5】 , you'll miss a number of good surprises in your life.　　
　　When you meet challenges, don’t run away, just welcome them. They'll make you stronger,   【小题6】  and cleverer than you were before. When you do something wrong, you should be thankful for the things it gave you. And then, you should use this lesson to help you   【小题7】  your dream come true. It's also important to decide what you want. Then keep your dream , work hard for it, and be ready to receive it. It will come true more quickly.
　　And always follow the rules, even the little ones. When you follow the rules, life will work well.   【小题8】  you think you can live without the rules, you're only fooling(愚弄) yourself.
　　There will be more chances   【小题9】  you are growing up. So you have to be brave enough to move from a known place to an unknown place. Life isn't just like climbing one mountain. It is also a part of your life to move   【小题10】  one top to the next. If you rest for a too long time, you may fail at last. Leave the past in the past. Climb the next mountain and enjoy the fight in your life.
　　The person that can win is the one who wants to win.
Love always,
　　Grandpa
