How to buy strawberries...怎么買(mǎi)草莓……Smell them. If they smell like strawberries buy them, they will taste divine. If they look gorgeous but have no smell, they will have no taste.聞聞看。如果聞著像草莓，那就買(mǎi)吧，這吃起來(lái)是極好的。如果看著挺不錯(cuò)可是聞起來(lái)沒(méi)什么味道，那吃起來(lái)也不怎么樣。Simple and foolproof. If people give you a strange look because you're smelling the strawberries, let them not smell and buy the tasteless ones.這種方法既簡(jiǎn)單又可靠。如果別人覺(jué)得你聞草莓的行為很奇怪，那就讓他們不去聞，然后去買(mǎi)那些不怎么樣的草莓吧。

How to Fall Asleep Faster: I hate it when I am lying in the bed, trying to sleep. It used to take me too much time to get to sleep. I searched internet for few tricks to fall asleep faster. The next time you are lying awake in bed Unable to sleep, you can trick yourself to sleep by trying these natural tips: 怎樣更快入睡：我很討厭躺在床上試圖入睡的那種時(shí)候。在以前，“試圖睡著”這個(gè)過(guò)程占據(jù)了我很多時(shí)間。我就去網(wǎng)上找了些能夠更快入睡的竅門(mén)。下次躺在床上睡不著的時(shí)候，你就可以用這些比較自然的方法騙自己去睡覺(jué)。Try to stay awake: Challenge yourself to stay awake – your mind will rebel! It's called the sleep paradox.試著保持清醒：挑戰(zhàn)自我，讓自己保持清醒——這樣你的大腦就會(huì)抗議！這就叫睡眠悖論。Keep your eyes wide open, repeat to yourself 'I will not sleep'. The brain doesn't process negatives well, so interprets this as an instruction to sleep and eye muscles tire quickly as sleep creeps up.一直睜著眼睛，不停地告訴自己“我不睡覺(jué)”。因?yàn)榇竽X無(wú)法很好地處理否定信息，所以這種指令也被解釋為睡覺(jué)，而且眼肌也會(huì)疲勞，這樣睡意很快就來(lái)了。Rewind your day: Remembering the mundane detail in reverse order clears your mind of worries. Recall conversations, sights and sounds as you go. It helps you to reach a mental state that's ready for sleep.重溫你的一天：以倒序的方式回憶每一個(gè)瑣碎的細(xì)節(jié)，這樣可以清楚你內(nèi)心的憂(yōu)慮。你可以回想各種對(duì)話(huà)、風(fēng)景還有各種聲音。這可以幫你達(dá)成“準(zhǔn)備睡覺(jué)”的精神狀態(tài)。Roll your eyes: Close your eyes and roll the balls up 3-5 times can do the job. It simulates what you do naturally when you fall asleep and may help trigger the release of your sleepy hormone, melatonin.轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)你的眼球：閉上眼睛，轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)眼球3-5次就有效果了。這是在模擬你睡著時(shí)自然而然會(huì)做的動(dòng)作，而且這也許有助于刺激睡眠激素和褪黑激素的釋放。
