Want your kids to sleep better at night? Turn off the TV. That"s the conclusion of a new study from Finland showing that merely having a television on in the house，even if the kids aren"t actively watching it，can be enough to disturb their sleep patterns significantly.
Childcare specialists are very specific about the amount of hours children of a given age should spend in front of the television and the kinds of shows they should be watching. But few people have looked closely at what happens when a TV is simply on in the background - either being watched by an adult or， just as commonly， by no one at all.
In a study published in the Journal of Sleep Research， Finnish investigators tried to get at that question， surveying 321 parents of 5-and 6-year-old children to determine the families" viewing patterns and the effect this had on the kids" sleep habits.
All of the families in the study watched a pretty fair amount of TV，with at least one television in the house switched on for an average of 4.2 hrs. per day. On average a child actively watched TV for 1. 4 of those houre and was passively exposed to TV for at least another 1. 4 hrs. In 21 % of the homes，the kids had a TV of their own in the bedroom.
All that exposure，it turns out. was doing the kids" sleep patterns no favors. In general,
hours of passive or active viewing was. the more problems young children had falling asleep. staying asleep，waking up in the morning and avoiding fatigue during the day.
But not all TV viewing was equal. Watching TV alone or at bedtime had greater negative impact on sleep. Unusually high passive exposure - 2. 1 hrs. per day or more - was particularly associated with sleep disturbances. especially when they were adult shows to which the kids

were exposed.

"以及下文中的"surveying 321 parents of 5-and 6-yearold children to determine the families" viewing patterns and the effect this had on the kids" sleep habits."。其实that question指的就是"what happens when a TV is simply on in the background" ，但是如果这样回答，还是不太明确，到底是"谁"会发生什么事情呢?因此，还得参照下文信息。经过信息加工可以得出正确答案。

How to manage your time
Does it seem like you never have enough time and wonder where all your time goes? Do you know someone who usually gets work done before it is due? Maybe they use their time well. You can learn how to spend your time wisely, too. These steps may help you find that you have more time than you think!

Write down major due dates on your calendar. Estimate how long it will take to do each project. Allow yourself more time than you think you will really need.
Make a master schedule which should include the following activities.

A master schedule can help you keep track of all the things that you need to do during the semester. If you know what you have to do and when you need to do it, you can prepare better to meet the deadlines.

No? Then you should look at your schedule to see how it can be improved.

Dear Joe,
I’m back at school now. Thank you very much for the wonderfully week I spent with you and your family. During the week you teach me how to swim, boat or fish. I really appreciate your taking me around your place and I really enjoyed me. Your mother is such good cook that I think I must have put on nearly 3 kilogram in just one week.
