How do you usually sleep, on the back or on your side? Here are some interesting sleeping positions.
Starfish Starfish is when you lie on your back and sleep with your arms lifted up near your head. According to studies, only 5% of people sleep like this. It often causes lower back pain. You can place something soft under your knees if you have lower back pain. You will feel more comfortable this way. | |
Soldier Position This sleeping position is kind of strange, but very common. It’s when you sleep on your back with your arms down and very close to your body. Studies have shown that people who sleep like this may be quieter when they are sleeping. It is actually a good sleeping position, as it helps keep your spine in a straight line. | |
Sleeping on Your Belly Do you like to sleep on your belly, but often experience problems? Although many people like to sleep in this way, it’s unhealthy to sleep in this position for a long time. It can make your neck uncomfortable. But if this is how you like to sleep, you might think of using a very soft cooling pillow to keep your neck comfortable. | |
Freefall If this sleeping position is not familiar to you, you should know that at least 7% of the world’s population sleep that way. In this position, you have your hands on or around your pillow, with your head turned to one side. But it may create a twist in the neck. Some studies suggest that generally you’re an active person if you like to sleep in this position. |
A.Starfish. | B.Soldier Position. | C.Sleeping on Your Belly. | D.Freefall. |
A.feel difficult to sleep | B.get pain in your back |
C.sleep in a quiet way | D.become active in your life |
A.Put a pillow under your head when you sleep on the belly. |
B.Sleep on your belly all night and don’t change your position. |
C.Sleep in the Freefall position when your neck isn’t comfortable. |
D.Be active and do some sports before you sleep in the Freefall position. |
Most of us learn how to ride a bike when we were kids. But as we grow older, many of us stop riding and put away those once-beloved bikes somewhere. Years later, when we get on the bikes, we can still ride very well, just like we never stopped biking.
It’s surprising, right? Our memories let us down at many other moments, such as remembering the name of a person who we once knew. So why can we ride a bike when we haven’t practised for so many years? There are two kinds of long-time memories in our brains: declarative and procedural.
Declarative memories is the memory about facts and experience. It includes things like remembering difficult words and long phone number. Its extraction often need the help of consciousness. Take this for an example, when being asked about your travelling experiences of the last summer vacation, you need to put in a lot of mental effort to recall the details of the trip.
Declarative memory is what schools try to teach students. It’s easy to put it into words. Also, it’s natural to forget it without practicing from time to time. Scientists make good use of them when doing researches.
Procedural memory, on the other hand, is about how to perform skills. It’s mostly unconscious—that is, we can do it without putting in much attention. Playing the piano and swimming are both examples of it. When we perform a skill over and over again, it becomes part of us.
Procedural memory, different from declarative memory, is often difficult to explain. If someone asked you how you drive a car, you might not be able to say it clearly and completely. However, if they asked you about the way to your house, you would probably be able to say it out quickly and easily.
19. Why does the writer mention bike riding in Paragraph 1?A.To show the topic about memories. | B.To give advice on memory problems. |
C.To tell us the importance of memories. | D.To describe the advantages of memories. |
A.Good habits. | B.Lots of busy time. |
C.Much attention. | D.Common knowledge |
①Sweep the floor. ②Remember phone numbers. ③Drink water. ④Catch a baseball. ⑤Know some festivals.
A.① ②③ | B.②④⑤ | C.③④⑤ | D.①③④ |
A.The Kinds of Memory | B.The Memory about Facts |
C.The Way to Improve Memory | D.The Secret of Riding a Bike |

The police officer Otchumyelov was walking across the market square. Suddenly, a shouting broke the silence. “So you bit me, you stupid brute. Biting is not allowed today!”
Otchumyelov looked towards where the sound came from and saw a workman holding a dog and showing a bleeding finger to others. Soon many people came.
“What is it all about?” Otchumyelov asked “why are you showing us your finger?”
“I was walking along here, your honour.” The workman began. “Suddenly this low brute for no reason bit my finger...I am a working man. I shall not be able to use this finger for a week or more...”
“Hmm, a sad story...” said Otchumyelov seriously. “Whose dog is it? I won’t let this pass!”
“I guess it’s General’s.” said someone.
“General’s? Hmm...Let me take off my coat...it’s too hot!” Otchumyelov questioned, “But there’s one thing I still can’t understand. How this little dog came to bite your finger?”
“The workman put a cigarette in the dog’s face, sir. I guess she bit him because she hurt a lot.”A fisherman shouted.
“That’s a lie! Sir Otchumyelov is a wise gentleman, and he will see who is telling lies.” said the workman.
“Don’t argue!”
“No, that’s not the General’s dog.” a voice came from the people around, feeling like very sure.
“I know it, too! Our General has valuable dogs, but it is just a low brute. We won’t let this thing pass!” said Otchumyelov.
“But maybe she is General’s,” the voice came again, “I saw one like her the other day around General’s house.”
“Hmm...help me on with my overcoat. Oh, yeah, she is really a valuable dog! Look how lovely she is! I am sure she will not bite people for no reason...”
“Here comes General’s cook, ask him. Hi! Is she one of General’s dogs?”
“What an idea! General has never had one like that!”
“No more talking now.” said Otchumyelov. “This is clearly a homeless dog! It must be killed right now!”
“She is not our dog,” The cook went on, “but she is General’s brother’s, who arrived yesterday.” “His Excellency’s brother is here?” asked Otchumyelov, and he showed the biggest smile. “Well, will he come for a visit?”
“Yes.”
“So...This is His Honour’s dog? Glad to hear it.. I mean...Such a lively, oh, you little pretty doggy.” said the officer, “A super lovely pet snap your finger? Hey, that’s something to be proud of, man! Rrr...Rrr...Wow! He is getting angry! Everybody, watch out!”
The crowd laughed at the workman.
