1．Best Sleep Music Apps If you want to sleep better at night，trying a sleep music app might be the answer.Here are some ideal sleep music apps to choose from.
Calm
Calm is one of the most popular sleep music apps and its large library of relaxing and sleep-causing tracks is largely responsible for that.This app offers a free version，but to really take advantage of what Calm has to offer，you had better choose the paid version，which costs ＄69.99 for one year.A lifetime membership is ＄399.99.
Relax Melodies
Relax Melodies is intended to calm your mind with relaxing sound.The composer is visual and easy to use，and the Discover page gives you access to other app features，like bedtime stories and breathing exercises.Though its free version provides a great introduction to the idea of sleep music，the paid version unlocks a larger library of sounds.Consider paying for it if there're particular sounds or features that really attract you.
Headspace
Headspace is a feature-rich app designed in a simple way that makes it quick and easy to use its library of sleep-specific music.The Sleep icon at the bottom of the app is easy to identify and leads to a library of options that include Sleep Music and Sleep Radio.It's worth noting that nearly everything in Headspace's Sleep Library requires an extra subscription.Headspace costs ＄69.99 annually，or you can pay ＄12.99 per month.
Pzizz
Pzizz offers sleep music tracks you can use at naptime，bedtime，or to improve focus.One thing that makes Pzizz different is its voice narration（旁白） option.If you find the presence of a calming voice to be comforting or benefit from someone helping you to relax your body and mind，then Pzizz is a good choice for you.Male and female voice options are available and the voice is low and calm.It has a free version but you should pay for extra subscriptions.

The online community took it from there，printing out many versions of Brian's design until they had a prototype to send to Jimmy.Jimmy was just surprised by their support，and he eagerly tested every version of it.The creators of the pill bottle now feel like there's nothing they can't do!

9．I am a mother of three children and have recently completed my college degree.
The last class I had to take was sociology（社會學(xué)）.The teacher offered inspiring teaching that I wish every human were lucky enough to receive.Her last project of the term was called "Smile".The class was asked to go out and smile at three people and record their reactions.
I am a very friendly person and always smile at everyone and say hello anyway，so I thought this would be a piece of cake.Soon after we were given the project，my husband，the youngest son，and I went out to McDonald's on a cold morning.It was just our way of sharing special playtime with our son.We were standing in line，waiting to be served，when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back away，and even so did my husband.
I did not move a bit.A strong feeling of fear turned up as I turned to see why they had moved.As I turned around，I smelled a terrible "dirty body" smell，and standing behind me were two poor homeless men.As I looked down at the short gentleman，close to me，he was "smiling".His beautiful sky-blue eyes were full of hope as he searched for acceptance.
He said， "Good day!" as he counted the few coins he had been holding.The second man was obviously mentally disabled.I held my tears when I stood there with them.
The young lady at the counter asked him what they wanted.He said， "Coffee is all，Miss." because that was all they could afford （if they wanted to sit in the restaurant and warm up，they had to buy something）.They just wanted to be warm.
Then I really felt the desire was so great that I almost reached out my hands and hugged the little man with the blue eyes.
注意：
1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
2.請按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
At that moment I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were staring at me.______________________
I turned in "my project" and the instructor read it.______________________________________組卷：1引用：1難度：0.4
