Lots of people have insomnia(失眠症). All kinds of things can lead to insomnia such as illness, moods and sleeping environment. The most common _ is stress. “On the notice board the teacher puts everyones grades up, from first to last,” said Zeng Lei, 16, Hubei. “Im so worried about my grades that I cant sleep.”Some teens find they wake up during the night, because they dont have enough iron in their body. Their legs or arms _ during the sleep making it hard to sleep. Others have nightmares(梦魇) so often they cant get the rest they need.To enjoy good sleep, doctors say that a teenager needs a healthy lifestyle. That means _ regular hours and not watching too much TV, using computer too often, or reading too much in bed. They should also try not to drink coffee or tea, eat heavy meals or exercise before bed, _ these can keep them awake.Its good idea for a person who keeps having trouble with sleep to see a doctor. “You need to listen to what doctors say,” said Dr Yuan Yonggui of the School of Medicine at Southeast University. He warns against taking medicine if its not from the doctor.16 . AunusualBtiringCdifficultDimpossible17 . AbestBbiggestConlyDlast18 . AcauseBillnessCsituationDsense19 . ArestBgrowCincreaseDmove20 .

Teenagers, however, have many more opportunities to get stressed than people in any other age group. Being a teenager is hard. You are not a child any more, but you are not an adult, even though you have to deal with some very grown-up problems and decisions. Families can be one of the biggest causes of stress, such as problems with parents arguing at home, or problems with brothers and sisters. Teenagers also have a lot of stress from school, either from their teachers or from their friends. Some teenagers also feel stressed about choosing their education after high school. Getting a place at university can be very difficult and some cannot afford to go to university. The stress about getting a job when finishing school is hard for some teenagers. There are so many young people finishing school and not enough jobs for them. Sadly, there is nothing we can do to remove these causes of stress from the 1ives of teenagers, but you can learn the best way to deal with it. Talking to people is one of the best ways to deal with stress. It may sound simple, but it is true. A problem shared is a problem halved.22 .

Why can finding a job after finishing school be difficult?ABecause there are no jobs.BBecause there is a lot of competition for jobs.CBecause a job is more difficult than school work.DBecause there are many places at university.An 8-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother Andrew.

Only a very expensive operation could save him.One morning, the girl heard her father say to her mother: “Only a miracle can save Andrew now.” The girl went to her bedroom, collected all of her money and counted it carefully.

My daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?”“We dont sell miracles here, my dear. Im so sorry,” the salesman said, sadly.“What kind of a miracle does your brother need?” asked a well-dressed man standing nearby.“I dont know,” she answered. “Hes really sick and needs an operation in his head. So I brought all my money.”“How much do you have?” asked the man.“$1.11,” she answered, “ but I can try and get some more.” She said again and again.“Well, what luck,” said the man. “$1.11 is the price of a miracle.
