Researchers say sleep is probably the best tool we have for memory and learning. But what about getting rest during th

16、e middle of the day? A recent study on napping(小睡) says short periods of sleep may help our brains work better. Past studies have shown that napping can help babies and young children learn better. And napping can help brain performance in older adults. Taking a nap may also help this group of peopl

17、e fight off memory loss because of the increase in their age.Many Americans do nap. But one-third of all adults in the United States are also chronically(长期的) tired, says the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It found that 50 million to 70 million Americans have chronic sleep di

18、sorders. However, they seem to be unwilling to tell people that they take a nap. They may think that napping shows they are weak or they dont have enough energy.

19、ing. Some people brag about how few hours of sleep they need each night to show that they are somehow stronger than the average humansuperhuman, if you will. However, that may be changing.

After all, were brought up to be kind and polite.So, what exactly a

24、re you supposed to say when “thank you” is only the 20thmost popular way to express gratitude (感激)? According to a recent report, 19 other ways of expressing gratitude finished ahead of “thank you” in a poll (投票) of 3,000 people.Pollsters found almost half those asked preferred the more informal (非正

25、式的) “cheers”, while others liked to use such expressions as “ta”, “great” and “nice one”.So, just what is the right form of words to express your thanks?Luckily, the answer is in the language itself. “Cheers” is considered an informal way to say thank you. For example, when going for a drink with fr

26、iends, a smile and a “cheers” by way of thanks is not only acceptable to the situation, it is also culturallyaccurate.“Ta” was the second-most popular expression of thanks, and is also commonly used in informal situations, along with phrases such as “nice one”, and “wonderful”. Interestingly, one wo

27、rd that didnt make it into the top 20 was “thanks”. But “thanks” can be useful, as it is able to bridge the divide between “thank you” and the downright relaxed “cheers”.Certain words can double as an expression of thanks as well as delight.

28、ar” can tell both your pleasure at someones action, as well as serving to express your thanks. If you are on the receiving end of a “new” thank you, you can reply with a simple “no problem”, or “sure”.Of course, a simple wave, nod or smile may be all right. For example, if a car driver slows down to

29、 let you cross the road, simply raising your hand is enough to show that you are thankful for the drivers consideration.Sometimes, formality is necessary, and “thank you” is still the best choice in such situations. But students should not worry about when exactly to use certain expressions.Many peo

30、ple in western countries are worried that good manners are in decline (衰退). People are tired of seeing their acts of kindness and service pass without any feedback. So dont think that your “thank you” was useless or too formal. The chances are, if you said “thank you”, you made someones day.1（小题1）We
