a big part of this depends on what I read.I love to read Oor Wullie and The Broons.Very often Im smiling before I go to sleep.I decide to write about this in a blog because I find that so many of us go to sleep with stress.Before we go to sleep，we may run over the day in our minds，and worry about tomorrow.We also may watch the news on TV，read the news on our smart phones or tablets，or even answer work emails.But the news is rarely proclaiming(宣告)all the good thats happening in the world and work emails make us feel that were still at work.All these things may leave us a stressful sleep.Oor Wullie and The Broons are not the only things I ever read at night.I sometimes read novels but，with the odd exception，I mostly avoid anything that is too mentally taxing or stimulating late at night unless its something that inspires me or is clearly helpful in my life.And even if I do read something mentally stimulating，when I feel myself getting tired I lay that book down and pick up a trusty old Oor Wullie or The Broons for the last 10 or 15 minutes.Doing this makes my mind quiet and helps ensure I get a peaceful nights sleep.Reading about Wullie or Maw and Paw Broon is like a comfort blanket for me.Id suggest you find lighthearted reading as a comfort blanket at bedtime，especially if you find yourself stressed or depressed a lot of the time，or if you find difficulty winding at the

works the other way around,too?Predators can use camouflage to 10 their prey.If a predator wants to eat a certain animal,and that animal cannot see it lying in 11,it can catch its prey 12,swallowing it before it even knows what is happening.Another popular adaptation is mimicry(拟态).Mimicry is when an animal has markings or other 13 characteristics that allow it to look like some other kind of animal or plant.If it can make its predators 14 that it is something that preys on them,or would at least be difficult or 15 to catch,its predator will often go off in search of a(n) 16
