【推荐2】Not being able to fall asleep or stay asleep is not a disorder in itself but a sign of some other problems, often a physical one.

If you have trouble sleeping, the American Sleep Disorders Association suggests that, for a week or two, you put down the time you go to bed, get up, exercise, and drink coffee, tea or wine. The purpose is to find the habits that may affect your sleep.

Then: a. Don't drink coffee in the six hours before going to bed.

b. Stop smoking and drinking at bedtime.

c. Don't sleep during the day.

d. Go to bed at the same time every night. Set your alarm clock for the same time every morning and get up at that time, whether or not you sleep well.

e. Use the bedroom only for sleep. Read, watch TV, eat and talk elsewhere.

f. Take sleeping pills according to your doctor's directions and don't take them for longer than three weeks at a time.

g. If you haven't fallen asleep within 15 minutes of going to bed, don't turn over worrying about it. Get up and read or watch TV until you are sleepy, then return to bed.

If you continue to have trouble sleeping, ask your doctor for help or go to a sleep-disorders center.

But rarely does a young person get to meet or talk to their idol. Yet for one young tennis player - Coco Gauff - her chance to do just that happened in an amazing way!

Coco was born on March 13, 2004. At the age of 4, she developed an interest in tennis after watching Venus Williams win the Australian Open on TV. Coco began playing at 7 and showed a real talent for the sport. When young Coco turned 10, she began training at a tennis centre run by Venus's coach, Patrick Mouratoglou. He still remembers the first time he met Coco. He says, “She impressed me with her determination and fighting spirit. ” Convinced of her talent, Mouratoglou sponsored （资助）Coco to attend his academy in France. While she was preparing to go to the academy in 2019, she received a call that would change her plans and her life!

Wimbledon （温布尔顿网球比赛）organizers called and offered Gauff entry to the tournament （联赛）as a wildcard （外卡选手）.This made her one of the youngest players to ever qualify. Before she knew it, she was on her way to London. After arriving, she received another surprise. For her Wimbledon debut （首次登场），she would be playing her lifelong hero, Venus Williams!

【推荐2】Growing up, playing hockey with her brothers and the boys in the area, Rhéaume learned pretty quickly that, despite her abilities, she was often cut from teams simply because she was a girl. Although it was frustrating for the youngster, she was not deterred. She continued to work hard and develop her skills to prove she could compete with the boys.

It didn’t take long for her to make a name for herself. In 1984, she became the first girl to play in the famed Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament.

When the Tampa Bay Lightning, a National Hockey League (NHL) team came calling the following year, it was an opportunity Rhéaume could not pass up. When Rhéaume arrived in Tampa Bay, she remembers there was a big bouquet of flowers waiting for her in her dressing room, along with a card. “It was from a radio station in Montreal and the card said go further, good luck to you, we’re all behind you and you’re not alone,” she said. “When I got that, I realized a lot of people were pulling for me to be successful.” It was at that point that the significance of the game began to dawn on her.

When Rhéaume joined the Lightning for a game, on September 23,1992, she became the first woman to play in the NHL. While it might have felt like just another game for Rhéaume in the moment, in the years that have followed, she has realized it was so much more. “I didn’t know that it would inspire so many people,” she said. “It was more later in my life that I realized it was a big deal and I did impact people with my story.”

Although her experience with the NHL was brief, Rhéaume inspired countless girls to pursue their hockey dreams. Almost twenty-eight years later, and she’s still doing exactly that. Today, Rhéaume is the head coach of the12U Little Caesars Girls in Detroit. “I always tell my players to follow their dreams no matter what the dream is and to believe in themselves,” Rhéaume said. “Hard work and never giving up is what can make you succeed.”

【推荐3】Chinese sprinter Su Bingtian has dedicated his emotional men’s 100-meter final run in Tokyo to star hurdler Liu Xiang, the first Chinese athlete to win a gold medal on the track in the men’s 110 m hurdles in Athens 2004.

Finishing sixth in 9.98 seconds, Su is the first Chinese to qualify for the Olympic 100 m final after setting an Asian record of 9.83 seconds in a highly competitive semi-final. Before Su, the last time an Asian runner reached the final of the Olympic blockbuster event was at the 1932 Olympics in Los Angeles, where Japan’s Takayoshi Yoshioka finished last.

“I have always been in contact with Liu Xiang, and he is constantly encouraging me and supporting me.” Su told China Media Group after learning that Liu was singing his praises on social media. “When I broke the 10-second barrier, Liu was there. So, for me, he is not only my idol but also probably my god of luck. I am very grateful to him because he is really a trailblazer for our Chinese track and field team,” he said.

Liu held the world record in 110 m hurdles with a time of 12.88 seconds in 2006 but was affected by an Achilles problem in the latter stages of his career and pulled out of the Beijing and London Olympics due to recurring injuries.

Su highlighted the fact that before Liu, no Chinese athlete had ever won a medal in an Olympic sprint event and for all Liu’s injury records, he is an inspiration to all. “If Liu Xiang had not come to prominence, many people might not have dared to dream that we could appear in the final of the Olympic Games and that we Asians were able to win a track and field gold,” said Su. “I finished sixth in the 100 m final, and hopefully, I could also bring encouragement to younger athletes and drive more young Chinese players to break the 10-second barrier.”
