一
Have you ever been bored and decided to check social media, only to find out that your best friend is at Disneyland, that one of your classmates is eating delicious pizza at your favorite pizza store, and that one of your soccer teammates is climbing the Eiffel Tower in Paris? Have you ever had that feeling that others are experiencing things and enjoying life more than you are? Oh, man! You' re missing out! ___36___ Researchers call that feeling the fear of missing out or FoMO.
___37___ It’s so easy today to see what your friends are doing from the social media. Unluckily, we only have so much time in the day and only so much money to spend on food or entertainment. It would be impossible for us to enjoy all the name activities we see others take part in on social media.
Rather than realizing this basic truth, though, we usually let FoMO lead us to compare our lives with those of others on social media. ___38___ Why? We know all the sides of our lives --- both good and bad. But all we see on social media are the picture --- perfect moments others share.
___39___ FoMO makes us check social media more frequently, leading to addiction and a negative cycle that can be hard to break. Researchers have found that social media and FoMO can cause serious negative re-suits, including feeling of depression, loneliness and boredom.
___40___ Researchers advise that we stop looking to social media for happiness. Instead, we should focus our attention on our real lives, including the people around us and all the things we’re grateful for.
A. Have you ever experienced FoMO?
B. At least that’s what you might think.
C. This certainly leaves us feeling dissatisfied.
D. So how do we break the cycle and avoid FoMO?
E. Over 75% of young people report feeling FoMO from time to time.
F. As famous Theodore Roosevelt said, “Comparison is the thief of joy”.
G. If you let FoMO control you, the only thing you’ll really be missing out on is your own life.

Three uncommon methods for a better sleep
You left your phone on the bedside table. A friend sent texts at midnight only to kill time. You switched your phone to the do-not-disturb setting. Your phone stayed silent with no unwanted text.
Your sleep returned to normal. 36 Fortunately , you don't have to rely on sleeping pills to guarantee the quality of your night.
●Dinner with your family.
37 Those who are unable to sleep through the night feel disconnected from their
family. They are more likely to have difficulty falling asleep and experience severe headaches more often than the connected ones. So, communicating with family members over dinner may improve sleep quality, although the link between loneliness and sleep quality is still under research.
●38
Is your sleep interrupted by urgent bathroom visits? As many as three out of five adults suffer from this. Many lifestyle changes may help: drinking no more than ten cups of water daily, avoiding caffeine and alcohol after midday, and drinking less soup at dinner. 39
●Lower your screen light.
Up to 60% of adults stay up late using social media and feel sleepy the next day. Although experts are against phones in the bedroom, it doesn't work for adults wanting to feel connected.
But the blue light from the screen secretly affects people's sleep. 40 In this way, the body is discouraged from falling asleep. That's why the brightness of the screen should be at a proper level.
A. Change your lifestyle.

C. Family connection has effects on night-time rest.

Hearing loss is not always preventable, but in order to keep our ears as healthy and as high-functioning as possible, there are steps we can take to minimize our risk. These steps are simple and easy to put into practice. 36
● Know when your surroundings are too loud
37 or if you have trouble hearing them over the background noise, then your sur- roundings are too loud. A noise is too loud if it hurts your ears to listen to it or if you find that after you move away from the noise, things sound muffled or there is a ringing in your ears.
● Protect your ears with earplugs (and frequent breaks)
If you absolutely have to be around loud noises, be sure to protect your ears while you are there. 38 , don't stand next to the speakers and consider wearing musician's earplugs,
which don't muffle the music but reduce the volume nonetheless.
● Turn down the volume
Most teenagers (and even many adults) enjoy listening to music at high volumes through headphones or in the car. 39 . And this can even lead to having to use hearing aids later in life. Turning down the volume of the music you are listening to until it is at a comfortable and safe volume is a great way to protect your ears against damage.
● 40
Last but not least, getting your hearing checked at the first sign of trouble can mean the difference between healthy ears and permanent hearing loss.
A. Get a hearing test
B. Take a sound check
C. If you are going to a concert
D. Then, the only thing you lose is the risk of hearing loss
E. If you have to shout to be heard by someone near you
F. Unfortunately, this is one of the best ways to damage your hearing
G. Unexpected sounds can jump out at you from any place at any time

As is often the case, when we wake up feeling sleepy and with dark circles under eyes, many of us often make a decision: “I’m going to bed earlier tomorrow!” we are so determined. 36 We are still absorbed in what we are doing without realizing it is already too late the next day. This
behavior is called “bedtime procrastination” (睡眠拖延症), and results from lack of self-control and our body clock.
37 According to a study carried out by a group of health psychologists, 53 percent of the 2,400 participants said they didn’t follow their sleep schedule, delaying it at least twice a week. They delayed bedtime because they couldn’t stop doing other trivial things (琐事), which were keeping them up in the first place.
People who generally have trouble resisting temptations (诱惑) and following their intentions firmly are also more likely to delay going to bed. They find it hard to control themselves. 38 Our body clock also plays an important role when it comes to bedtime. Those who get up late are more likely to postpone their bedtime than those who wake early every morning. Night owls would go to bed late at the very beginning of the weekday, even though they had to get up early for work and school. 39
Therefore, if we want to cure our bedtime procrastination,the intention to go to bed earlier is not enough. 40 We should have a clear understanding that bedtime procrastination is a big problem. The choices we make could turn out to be pretty important for our health.
A. Bedtime procrastination is a common problem.
B. It will have extreme effect on our health sooner or later.
C. Yet, lack of self-control is not the only thing to blame.
D. Unfortunately, chances are that we don’t stick to o ur promise.
E. It’s their special body clock that plays a part in delaying their bedtime.
F. Biological processes need to support this intention.
G. So we just need to take action to change our sleep model.
