   How do actors and actresses memorize hundreds of lines? Memorizing lines takes practice and constant repetition. However, there are a few ways to make the memorization process run smoothly and quickly.
【小题1】
For most performers, there is no quicker way of memorizing lines. To learn lines, an actor must recite the play loud over and over again. Most rehearsals(排练) encourage this by running through the lines or having a"read-through". By the time the opening night arrives, most actors have spoken their lines hundreds of times.
Listen to your cast members
Sometimes inexperienced actors spend rehearsals looking at fellow performers, waiting patiently to say their next line. 【小题2】. This will help the actors learn their lines better because the context of the dialogue is absorbing.

【小题3】

Because there is often not enough rehearsal time, many performers find ways to listen to the play's dialogue during everyday activities. They use a tape recorder or an MP3 player to listen to the lines from each relevant scene. Some actors prefer to record the lines of all the characters, including their own lines. 【小题4】. Others like recording the lines of fellow cast members, and they leave a blank space so that they can insert their dialogue while listening to the recording.
Think positively and don't panic
Most actors will experience stage fright before the opening night. Actors forget lines now and then. When it happens, however, most of the time the audience never notice. If you forget a line in the middle of your performance, don't freeze. Stay in character. Keep the scene going to the best of your ability. If unfortunately you forget a line once, you will probably never forget that line ever again. 【小题5】.
A.Record your lines
B.Practice makes perfect
C.Read lines loud and repeat them
D.Remember the lines in a short time
E.Sometimes embarrassment is the toughest method of memorization
F.Then, they not only listen carefully, but they also speak all of the lines
G.Instead, they should be listening carefully, responding in character at all times

   Everyone sleeps. However, taking the time to develop a sleep habit is probably the last thing on your mind and some sleep advice simply can't be forgotten. 【小题1】.

Watch TV until you fall asleep

It has nothing to do with what you watch-TV news isn't a better pre-sleep choice than TV series. 【小题2】. The bright light keeps you awake all night. So even if you nod off(in front of the TV, for example),you probably won't stay asleep for long.

Sleep with pets

【小题3】. They get comfortable, and then they move. This goes on all night, and whether you admit it or not, it interrupts your ability to get the level of sleep needed to feel rested.

Eat fatty, heavy foods when it is too close to bedtime
Heartburn strikes(侵袭)anyone of any age, but it's the most common GI disorder(胃肠失调)in older adults. If you've ever tried to go to sleep after eating a fatty meal, you've probably found the discomfort of your stomach preventing you from falling asleep or staying asleep.
【小题4】
Remember how poorly you sleep when you have a fever-turning over and over again, never really feeling rested? Well, heavy exercise too close to bedtime has the same effect-it raises your body temperature so that your sleep is disturbed until your body temperature drops to normal, which may take several hours.
Accept snoring(打呼噜)as normal sleep behavior
Snoring may seem as common as breathing, but it's considered the biggest sleep killer, and it's linked to several causes; sleeping on your back, being overweight, having a cold, drinking, or taking drugs. 【小题5】. For the snorer,it disturbs sleep by awakening him/her every so often in order to breathe normally. For the partner, the noise can be unbearable.
A.Lower your body temperature before bedtime
B.Here are some suggestions you'll need to follow
C.Rather it's the TV's bright light that is the criminal
D.Exercise heavily when it is too close to bedtime
E.Here are some bad habits you need to get rid of
F.Most seriously, it can be caused by a dangerous illness
G.Pets sleep most of the day, and they move a lot when sleeping

   Friends should always be honest with you, right? So when they lie, it can  be really hard to take. You want to trust your friends and that means knowing that they'll tell it to you straight no matter what it is. But a friend who lies isn't always trying to hurt you. Why does this happen?

Protect your feelings

One of the biggest reasons friends lie is simply to avoid hurting your feelings.

Some people don't understand the difference between being gently honest with a friend and being so straightforward(直接了当的)that they leave a verbal wound. They choose to avoid these two extremes in the form of a lie.

What you can do: Encourage your friends to be straight with you. No matter what their answer is, let them know you are grateful for it.

They feel embarrassed

Sometimes friends will lie about things in their life because they are too embarrassed to admit the truth. Maybe they are going through a rough time and they just don't want you to know about it.

What you can do: Avoid trying to badger(纠缠)your friend into telling you what's wrong. Instead, make it clear that you are there for them when and if they are ready to talk.

Avoid an argument with you

Perhaps your friend knows that if they tell you the truth, you'll get angry with them. Avoiding conflict is not always healthy for a friendship because it allows problems to grow over time. If you have a bad temper(脾气), your friend might try and avoid getting into an argument with you and instead just tell you what you want to hear.

What you can do: Make sure that if a friend tells you something unpleasant, you don't overreact. Consider what's being said and why your friend is telling you this. If you do end up arguing, do it in a respectable way.

Exclude you

Lying isn't always a sign that friends are trying to protect you, however. Sometimes they lie because they want to exclude you from their plans.

What you can do:When you find out with certainty that your friend is lying to you, try and face it. Be forewarned, however, that if a friend lies to begin with, he or she may lie when asked a direct question about his or her dishonesty. Go with your guts on this. If you feel your friend is lying because he or she doesn't want to be around you, that's your wake-up call to move on.

【小题1】According to the passage, friends sometimes lie _____________.
A.out of respect
B.in a straight way

D.because the truth hurts
【小题2】When you find a friend lying, you are advised to _____________ .
