Insomnia is the inability to fall asleep or sleep restfully．It is a problem to nearly everyone at some time ．A person may be awake for an hour in the middle of the night and then , next morning, feel that he hardly sleep all night Normally, worry about not getting enough sleep is the worst aspect of most insomnia．If insomnia is recurrent, however, it is important to find its causes and try to correct them, with the help of a doctor if necessary．

       Any of a large number of simple factors may take it difficult for someone to fall asleep or remain asleep．His matters may be too soft or too hard．If there are too many blankets on a hot night, he may be too warm; if the bedclothes are too light he may feel cold during the night．If it is not dark enough, or too noisy, this may cause difficulty in sleeping．Eating shortly before going to bed also be responsible for insomnia．Stimulating drinks, such as tea or coffee, can also keep people awake．

       Inability to fall asleep is sometimes a symptom of emotional or mental disorders．Insomnia may also be caused by pain and, very rarely, it can be a symptom of a physical disease．

       The cause of insomnia may be easy to correct．The sufferer should check the mattress, bedclothes and bedroom temperature, and make any necessary changes．An eye mask keeps out the night and ear-plugs shut out sound．He should relax for an hour or two before bedtime, perhaps by reading a book; watching TV, or taking a warm bath．If he wakes during the night he should try turning on the light and reading for a while．Taking warm milk and a biscuit or two may be helpful．Above all, he should try not to worry about sleeplessness when someone is tied enough he nearly always falls asleep．

       If necessary, a doctor may prescribe tranquillizers or sleeping pills．Take only the dosage he prescribes; any more is dangerous．

All the World Asks

On my first day in a college classroom, I felt like an overgrown child returning to civilization after having been lost in the forest for thirty years. There I sat,  36  enough to be a father to most of the students in the room,   37   unconfident enough to be their baby brother. We were crowded elbow (肘部) to elbow, listening to a  38  who looked even younger than the students. I felt uncomfortable and out of place as the professor carefully  39  what she expected us to learn.

As I listened, I couldn't help but  40  of my own oldest daughter who was now beginning her first year in  41 , just like me. I remembered how hard I had tried to help build self-confidence in her and my other children. So why did I suddenly feel like a scared  42  myself'? When I walked out of that classroom, I had serious  43  about my ability to make it  44  college. Not until late that night did my thinking  45 . It was a long-distance  46  from my daughter, my fellow college freshman, that did the trick. She spoke on the phone about the doubts, worries and anxieties she was  47 . She was certain that she'd never  48  at college. How  49  her worries sounded!

In my most confident parental  50 , I said, “Doing your best is all the world   51 .” The next day in class, those words still repeated in my head. When the professor raised a  52  for the class, nobody, including me,  53  to answer. When I looked around at the  54  and uncertainty on the young faces in that room, I knew  55  what I had to do: my best. That's all the world asks. So I raised my hand, and the professor called my name. I spoke.

A. TV’s Influence on Children’s Life

B. Arguments Against Violence on TV

C. TV’s Influence on People’s Leisure Activities

D. The Importance of Violence in Real Life

E. Attraction of Violence on TV

F. TV’s Power

51._____________

Television has probably been the most powerful medium in shaping the community. The electronic community gives us our mutual friends, our significant events and our daily chats. The “produced” relationships of television families become our models for intimacy. We know media stars better than we know our neighbors. Most of us can discuss their lives better than we can discuss those of our relatives. We think a man who plays a doctor on TV actually knows something about medicine.

52.________________

People spend most of their time watching TV in their spare time. People spend more time watching videos but less time making music with each other. People in small towns now watch international cable networks instead of driving to their neighbor’s house for cards. Women watch soaps instead of attending church or book clubs. When company comes, kids are sent to the TV room with videos.

53____________________

Parents are not the main influence in the lives of their children. Some of the first voices children hear are from the TV, and the first street they know is Sesame Street. A child playing Nintendo is learning different lessons than a child playing along a creek or playing dominoes with his grandfather.

54.________________

The time devoted to violence on TV in no way reflects its importance in real life. In real life, most of us exercise ,work, visit our friends, read ,cook, eat and shop. Few of us spend any significant amount of our time solving murders or fleeing psychotic killers. On television there are many more detectives and murderers than in the real world .A rule of thumb about violence is “If it bleeds, it leads.” Violence attract viewers” attention. Our programs have become increasing violent.

55_________________

Different people have different opinions. Some might say that there is nothing new under the sun. Of course, in a narrow sense, they are correct. There have always been murderers, and stories about violence have been the theme of literature and songs. However, things are different now. Children are exposed to hundreds of examples of violence every day. The frequence and intensity of these images is unprecedented in the history of humanity. We have clear records that this exposure makes it more likely that children will be violent and increases their fear levels about potential violence.
