    If you put your history notes under your pillow (枕头) and sleep on them the night before an exam, will you do any better on the test? Most of us have hoped this might help. However, _______ can't go through the pillow into your brain. But that doesn't mean you can't learn while you sleep.  

    Scientists aren't exactly sure how it works, but they have discovered that the brain can learn things during sleeping hours.

    In one experiment(实验), researchers gave German speakers some Dutch words to learn. Then, they divided them into three groups. The researchers played Dutch words for people in Group 1 while they slept, without telling these German speakers what they were doing. The sound was low so it didn't wake them up, and only the newly introduced words were used.

    Another group listened to the same words while they were awake. The researchers found the people in Group 1 were better able to identify(确认) and translate the words later. This was true only for the words that were played while they slept. The third group listened to words while they walked. The walkers did not have the same success remembering the words as the sleeping group.

    The researchers later found that people had more slow-wave(慢波的) brain activity throughout the night. They said that more slow waves made people have better memory for the new words.

    Healthy eating doesn't just mean what you eat, but how you eat. Here's some advice on healthy eating.

Eat with others. It can help you to see others' healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your friends or family, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious.

Listen to your body. Ask yourself if you are really hungry. When you are thirsty, drink a glass of water. Before, during and after exercise, you need to drink more water. It's not a good idea to eat much food when you are thirsty.

    Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It's really bad for you to go to school without breakfast. A good breakfast includes some bread or rice, an egg, milk and fruit. You also need to get up early to enjoy your breakfast. Don't hurry.

    Eat healthy snacks. You may think eating snacks is unhealthy. In fact, it's a good idea to eat two healthy snacks like fruits, yogurt or cheese between your three meals. Of course, foods like cookies, ice-cream or instant noodles are not on the list of healthy snacks.

              . Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. For example, if you go to bed at 10 o'clock, you'd better have dinner before 7. This will help your body to digest most of the food before you rest for the next 8 to 10 hours.

    Eating healthily will help you keep fit and live well一for today and tomorrow.
