It’s normal to wake briefly during the night. 21 But if you’re waking up during the night and having trouble falling back asleep, the following tips may help.
The key to getting back to sleep is continuing to prepare your body for sleep, so remain in bed in a relaxed position. Hard as it may be, try not to stress over the fact that you’re awake, 22 So just focus on the feelings and sensations in your body.
If you are finding it hard to fall back asleep, try a relaxation technique such as visualization, deep breathing, or meditation (沉思). 23 Remind yourself that although they’re not a replacement for sleep, rest and relaxation still help refresh your body. Do a quiet, non-stimulating activity.
If you’ve been awake for more than 15 minutes, try getting out of bed and doing a quiet, non-stimulating activity, such as reading a book. Keep the lights dim so as not to think that it’s time to wake up. 24 The type of light they send out is stimulating(刺激)the brain. A light snack might help relax you, but be careful not to eat so much that your body begins to expect a meal at that time of the day.
If you wake during the night feeling anxious about something, make a brief note of it on paper. 25 You may find that it will be easier to solve it when you are fresh. Similarly, if a great idea is keeping you awake, make a note of it on paper and fall back to sleep, knowing you’ll be much more productive and creative after a good night’s rest. A. Arrange for it to take place the next day.
B. In fact, a good sleeper won’t even remember it. C. The darker the bedroom is, the better you’ll sleep. D. They can be done without even getting out of bed. E. Try to make dinner time earlier in the evening.
F. Stress and anxiety encourage your body to stay awake.
G. Also avoid screens of any kind —computers, TVs, cell phones, iPads.

A famous magazine, Amusement Today, does a survey among park lovers every year both in the US and overseas, based on which, “Top 5 List of the Best Amusement Parks in the World” has come out as follows: Disneyland, California
Disneyland is a theme park in Anaheim, California, the US. More than 515 million guests have traveled to this American landmark from around the world since the park first opened to guests on July 17, 1955. The park consists of many world-famous sections, such as Main Street, Adventure Land, New Orleans Square, and so on. Magic Kingdom, Disney World, Florida
Magic Kingdom is a theme park within the Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, near Orlando opened on October 1, 1971. It is the most famous theme park in Florida. The park’s design and attractions don’t make much difference from Disneyland Park in Anaheim. EPCOT, Disney World, Florida

A research study was conducted at the University of Pennsylvania to determine to what extent a person's body language can affect the impression people form of him. The following are research results:
?55 percent of the impression people form of you is based on your body gestures. ?38 percent is based on the tone of your voice. ?Only 7 percent is based on what you say.
The shocking results show that body language (including both body gestures and voice tone) is more responsible for impression people form of you than your words.
Many people find it weird(不可思议的) that reading body language can tell us the real intentions of the people we are dealing with, but when you keep in mind that there are liars, dishonest people and people who don't know how to express their emotions, the results make a lot of sense. Let me give you another example to show you that depending on body language can be much accurate than depending on what people say. Let's suppose that you met a stranger who wears a horrible looking shirt. Will you tell him your opinions? Of course not. Most people suppress their emotions and opinions because of the rules that their society forces upon them, and that's why their real opinions are reflected in their body language.
Body language is now widely used in politics, sales, negotiations and any other situation where communication between people is involved. Body language can also help you leave the impression you want. For example by using proper body language you can appear confident even if you are anxious or afraid. Knowing that body language is so useful, you might want to know more about it. Please find it in my newly published book—The Interesting Body Language.

Why should ear, nose, tongue and eyes be called special senses? The basic reason is that these are the channels through which we maintain contact with the surroundings. Though apparently it may feel like these are individual sensory organs, they do show some connections. Interestingly, our hearing is less sharp after we eat a heavy food. Isn’t it good for a sound nap after a stomach-full meal? That does not mean we go deaf after a heavy meal, but the hearing pitch(强度)does change after that.
We usually owe it to our tongue that we have taste, but do you know that unless saliva(唾液)dissolves something, our tongue cannot recognize the taste of the food eaten. Taste is nothing but the food chemicals dissolved in the saliva being sensed by the taste buds present on the tongue. Try to dry off your tongue and mouth with a tissue paper and then taste something.
Woman are much better smellers than man. They are born with this characteristic ability and can correctly make out the exact fragrance of the sample. We all can store almost 50,000 different scents, which are strongly tied to the memories.
Pupils(瞳孔) do not respond to light alone, but to the slightest bit of noise around too. Thus surgeons, watchmakers and those professionals who have to perform a very delicate job do prefer to have a sound-free environment. Even a small noise can enlarge their pupils, change the focus and make them see less clearly.
Each and every one of us has an individualistic or characteristic smell, which is unique to us, except for the identical twins. This smell isn’t very noticeable yet can be sensed even by a newborn. It may be due to this scent that the newborn recognizes the presence of his parents around. Many of
