I did an experiment last week. No, nothing involving test tubes or beakers (烧杯). Instead,

I experimented with not watching the news right before I went to bed.

This is a long-time habit of mine so it’s probably not surprising that the first couple of

nights I got a little twitchy when news time rolled around and I wasn’t watching. To distract

myself, I went to bed a little earlier and read. Wow, what a treat that was! I love to read but I

don’t always make the time for it so this felt quite luxurious. On the nights I didn’t read, I spent

a little extra time petting my dog, Henry. He loved it. There’s never enough ear scratching for

him. The compromise nights were when I had a book in one hand and was petting the dog with

the other. Happy all around!

The funny thing about happiness is that it’s a whole lot easier to feel when you’re not being

bombarded (轰炸) by images of bad news. It’s not like skipping the late news means that I don’t

know what’s going on in the world. I still do read, listen to, and watch news stories. Just not

right before I go to bed. That makes it easier to fall asleep and then stay asleep without

dreaming about crime, wars, or natural disasters. (Although that dream I had about going to the

prom might count as a natural disaster!) It’s definitely a much gentler way to end the day. I like

it so much that I’m going to not only continue the no news before bed practice, but I’m also

going to experiment with turning off other electronics earlier in the evening, things like the

computer and smart phone.

Do you have any experience with turning off your electronics early in the evening? Does

setting a particular time, like digital Quiet Hours, work? Please share any tips you have.

Something tells me that this could be a little more challenging for me than no news.

A. Angry. B. Sad. C. Anxious. D. Pleased.

5. What did the author do to distract himself from watching news?

A. To treat himself with snacks.

B. To read to his dog.

C. To turn off the TV.

D. To read in bed.

6. What’s the result of the author’s experiment?

A. He had more time to walk his dog.

B. He was less exposed to images of bad news.

C. He was cut off from the current world.

D. He had nightmares.

7. What does the author intend to do by writing the text?

A. To encourage the readers to cut down time on electronics.

B. To gather the readers’advice in watching TV.

C. To share the effect of watching news.

D. To tell the readers the importance of reading.

A lunch break – it’s an important and often necessary part of our working or school day.

And now we’re spoilt ( 惯坏 ) with a lot of places to buy our lunch from, all

offering attractive dishes and sandwiches to eat on the go.

But our appetite for buying our lunchtime fare is not just costing us money, there might be a

cost in terms of damaging our planet too. Just grabbing a sandwich, crisps and maybe a cake

and coffee can produce at least four items of waste. Paper boxes, cups, wrappers and plastic

knives and forks are all part of our disposable (一次性的) feast in addition to the food waste we

create. Some experts say throwing away food, which produces methane (甲烷) as it rots, is a

bigger cause of climate change than plastics.

But regardless of what causes the most damage, the solution, according to an

environmental campaign group called Hubbub, is to eat packed lunches. Tessa Tricks from the

group says “People are saying that they are buying food to take out because life has got busier.”

And she says people think they are being more efficient; but she argues that it's usually healthier

and cheaper to make your own lunch. It means you can eat the things you really want and make

the quantity that you actually need.
