21、There is an old saying----“The only good snake is a dead snake“  I disagree .I know some people like their smooth pets，but I hate them. I shake from head to foot even whenＩ see them on TV

One day I stepped over one in my front yard,, and I probably set a record for the fastest runner and the loudest screamer in my town. And I almost had a heart attack when I walked through my house that night after I saw the snake. For that my husband received a serious warning about leaving his belt on the floor. So you can imagine my response when I saw the news about the lost 8-foot long cobra of a zoo in the Orlando area where I had lived a few weeks ago and it still frightened me . After days of search, they gave up. Then a few days ago, I read about its return. A young lady went out to the car in her garage. There she heard hissing coming from under the car. She immediately called the officers at Animal Control. You guessed it. An 8--foot king cobra was hanging out under the car. It was frightening.

We might not have a king cobra hanging out around us, but maybe a snake is hiding around to see how it can damage us. We need to keep our guard up. I think if the young lady had kept her garage door shut, the king cobra might not have made it to the garage.

23、When my friend Cathy sent me a text saying she didn’t think we could be friends anymore, I felt awful. We were close friends who saw each other both in and out of the office.

【1】 But as we were a two-person team, after lots of lunch breaks and late nights in the office, I realized our differences complemented (互补) each other. She was the person I could count on for sound advice.

And in the way life often is, when we both left the company, our friendship changed somehow. 【2】 I noticed the difference, but chalked it up to both of us being too busy. After all, some friendships fade.

So when Cathy called me out suggesting “we were good partners in the office, Mary, but maybe we aren’t a good fit outside of it”, I was shocked, and then ashamed. Because she was right, I had stopped being a real friend throughout the year.

I had two choices: go with what Cathy suggested or try to save our friendship. 【3】 So I put my pride in my pocket and apologized.

I started texting every week or so, about conversation topics like book recommendations,   the computer game she was playing, and writing festivals we were thinking of attending. 【4】 I initiated group outings. She met me halfway by being receptive to my invitations, and finally, we went out for one-on-one dinners.

Real friendships are hard work. You’ve got to make time to meet, keep in touch with texting, and remember little things like birthdays.【5】

24、   Are you having difficulty falling asleep? Try drinking a glass of warm milk. If that doesn't work, listen to beautiful soft music. Still no luck? Try thinking about sheep jumping over a fence. If you are still awake, take a sleeping pill. But people who take pills often become dependent on the drugs. So you lie awake knowing that the new workday will soon arrive. If you have been in such condition for at least one month, you may have primary insomnia.

A new study has found that you might fall asleep more quickly and stay asleep longer if you try "cerebral hypothermia”. It is not a complex medical process. It just means cooling down your brain. Eric Nofzinger and Daniel Buysse from the University of Pittsburgh Medical School led the study. They examined twelve people who had sleeping problems. Twelve others had no sleeping problems. Each of them wore a soft plastic cap on their head at bedtime.

The caps had tubes inside filled with water. The researchers moved the water through the tubes and then changed the temperature of the water. Other studies showed that people who had sleeping problems often had more chemical reactions in the front of their brains. The researchers thought cooling down the brain might help.

On the first two nights of testing, the patients wore caps with no water. On the next two nights, the caps were worn, but the water was not cooled. Then the researchers cooled the water a little for another two nights. On the final two nights of the study, the temperature of the water was made much cooler.

The researchers found that the water caps didn't help the patients until the temperature was about 14℃. Most of the patients fell asleep faster and slept better when the coolest water was moving around their heads.

Dr. Nofzinger and Dr. Buysse noted that this was only the beginning of the brain temperature study. But they believed they had discovered something important that needed more research.

【1】What is the purpose of Paragraph 1?

A.To ask readers a question. B.To tell sleeping problems.

C.To show what insomnia is. D.To offer ways to insomnia.

【2】What can we know about the participants in the study?

A.They showed more chemical reactions. B.They were required to wear plastic caps.

C.They all suffered from sleeping problems. D.They cooled themselves by drinking water.

【3】What do Dr. Nofzinger and Dr. Buysse think of their study?

A.It turns out disappointing. B.It proves widely practical.

C.It stands out among studies. D.It still has a long way to go.

【4】What's the main idea of the text?

A.It's time to cool yourself down. B.A medical process benefits sleep.

C.A new way might help with sleep. D.Cooling clown your brain matters.
