    Keep fit. If you do not eat a good breakfast, you will be thinking about food in class. If you go to bed late and do not have enough sleep, you will be sleepy in class. Play some sports to keep your body strong.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. Do not say you will do things tomorrow. If you get behind the class, it is very difficult to get back in front. You cannot finish a race if you rest all the time.

    You probably know that exercise is the key to reducing depression, but you might not know why. Here are some tips for exercising when you're depressed.

    Change your view of “exercise”.

    Forget “exercise”. Instead, think “being active” or “having fun”. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Besides, it gives you a bigger benefit.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    Taking part in physical activities with others supports you in doing those activities. Ask friends what activities they're doing or they would like to start doing, and join them. Other choices include hiring a personal trainer, joining an exercise group or going to a class.

    Try an experiment.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Or go to the gym every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Even if you're feeling too tired to do any actual exercise, still go to the gym, park your car, walk in, chage into workout clothes, and pick up a 5-pound weight. If you're really so tired that you don't want to do anything else, that's totally fine.

    Take it outside.

    Nature has a great effect on our feeling and decreases depressive symptoms. Even just looking at images of lakes and trees helps. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Or walk on a treadmill (跑步机) by a window.

    Tie it to a goal.

    Korb said, “When you connect your exercise to a long-term goal, it helps your brain forget momentary discomfort and makes your exercise more satisfying.” For example, Korb started getting active because it made playing sports more enjoyable. Figure out what's truly important to you. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

How to escape from a car in water

    "If you get on your phone and call your parents or your sister, or 911, you will die," says Robert May, a 21-year-old veteran(老兵) of the Indiana State. No one else will arrive in time: you have to save yourself.

    Move quickly. Minivans(微型货车) might float for as long as10 minutes. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} In a study from the University of Manitoba, three passengers were able to exist with a child mannequin(人体模型) through a single driver-side window in just 3 seconds.

    Unbuckle(揭开)your seat belt, lower your window and climb out, ideally onto the roof of the vehicle. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}Unfasten them from the backseat, pull them into the front and push them out of your window, oldest ones first. In May's experience, electric car windows will continue to work after falling into water. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Don't open the door, water will flood in. Once full of water, the vehicle will sink fast. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Vehicle submersions (淹没) have one of the highest death rates of any type of single-motor-vehicle incidents, responsible for 400 deaths a year in North America.

    After you get on top of your car, figure out if it makes sense to stay put or swim for dry ground. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}Just get out first, May says.

A. From there, call for help

B. You will be then totally out of danger.

C. Research has been done to confirm this.

D. If there are children present, attend to them first.

E. In one study, a 65-passanger bus sank in nine seconds.

F. Still, keep a small glass-breaking tool on your key ring, just in case.

G. However, the chances of survival are highest if you get out in the first 60 seconds.

    Everyone knows that fish is good for health. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}But it seems that many people don't cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn't difficult. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}Fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you're standing at the ocean's edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn't fresh. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you'd better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don't cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn't as tasty as the fresh one. There are many common methods used to cook fish. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}First, lean it and season it with your choice of spices(调料). Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound. (A larger one will take more time.) Then, it's ready to serve.

A. Do not buy it.

B. The easiest is to steam it.

C. This is how you can do it.

D. It just requires a little knowledge.

E. The fish will go bad within hours.

F. When buying fish, you should first smell it.
