12、cycles (周期) in light of World Sleep Day which was celebrated on March 21. Our bodies sleep in 90-minute cycles, experiencing five to six each night. At first, you enter a light stage of sleep when your muscles (肌肉) relax. Then, the body temperature drops, and the heart rate slows. Next comes deep sl
13、eep. Its difficult to wake up during this stage. This is when your body repairs itself and builds up energy for the day ahead. Finally, you get into the rapid eye movement (REM, 快速眼动) sleep stage. It is when most dreaming occurs. After REM sleep, the cycle repeats. Waking up in the morning in the “w
14、rong” stage can make you feel especially tired. An app called Sleep Calculator (记时器) can help you avoid this. Its a tool designed to work out the perfect bedtime for you based on your wake-up time. Developed by the UK company Hillarys, this smart calculator takes into account (考虑到) the sleep cycles

16、r sleep cycle whenever you want. Many young people go to bed late and get up late, such as sleeping from 2 a.m. to 10 a.m. They think as long as they have 8 hours of sleep, everything will be fine. But in fact, our bodies can tell the time, particularly by using light and temperature. If we wake up

20、d at anytime as long as you have 8 hours of sleep.We usually have a runny nose when catching a cold. Yet our parents tell us not to blow our nose so hard. Why is that?When we blow our nose very hard, the air can move from our nose to our ears and cause problems. When we have a cold, the tube (管道) th
21、at connects our nose to our ears gets smaller. So the air cant go back to the nose and stays in the ear. This can hurt the ear-drum (鼓膜) and might make our ears ring or even cause hearing loss. If the things from our nose go into our ears with viruses (病毒) and bacteria (细菌), it can cause ear infecti
22、ons (感染). If the air from the nose goes into the eyes, it can make the pressure in the eyes go up. This might cause different eye problems and even affect how well we can see in the long run. This is why, sometimes, when you blow your nose too hard, both your eyes and ears may feel uncomfortable. To
23、 clear your nose the right way, just close one nostril (鼻孔) at a time and softly blow. If your nose is blocked up, putting a warm towel (毛巾) on your nose and forehead (前额) can also help you feel better. Since your nose and throat are connected, you can also try to get the mucus (粘液) out from your mo
24、uth. Its a good idea to take a deep breath with the nose, then cough quickly to get out the mucus in your mouth.16What will happen if you blow your nose too hard?AYou may become blind.BYour eyes may get an infection.CYou may get a hearing problem.DThe pressure in your ear will go down.17What is the

28、be part of something bigger than ourselves. Psychologist Dan Baker says our purpose doesnt have to be huge. For example, a 17-year-olds purpose might be to get into their preferred college. 23 After understanding what happiness is, you might wonder what affects our happiness. 24 According to Sonja L
