.阅读理解
Most of the more than 6,000 species of frogs in the world lay their eggs in water. But many tropical (热带的) frogs lay their eggs out of water. This behavior protects the eggs from aquatic predators, such as fish and tadpoles, but also increases their risk of drying out. Justin Touchon, postdoctoral fellow at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute, discovered that climate change in Panama may be changing frogs' course of evolution (进化). By analyzing longterm rainfall data collected by the Panama Canal Authority, Touchon discovered that rainfall patterns are changing just as climatechange modds predict.
“Over the past four decades, rainfall has become much less during the wet season，” said Touchon. “The number of rainy days decreased, and the number of gaps between storms increased.”
The eggs of the pantless treefrog, Dendropsophus ebraeeatus, are extremely susceptible to drying. The embryos die within a day when there is no rain. Heavy rains trigger breeding(繁殖), so as storms become sporadic, the chance of rain within a day of being laid decrease and so does egg survival.
As weather patterns have changed, the advantage of laying eggs out of water has decreased, not only for pantless treefrogs but potentially for many species. “Pantless treefrogs can switch between laying eggs in water or on leaves, so they may weather_the_changes we are seeing in rainfall better than other species that have lost the ability to lay eggs in water，” said Touchon. “Being flexible(灵活的) in where they put their eggs gives them more choices and allows them to make decisions in a given habitat that will increase the survival of their eggs.”

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Four Steps to Fall Asleep
We live in a 24hour society with little regard for rest or its wellknown benefits.__1__ A lack of sleep can lead to poor work performance，greater risk of injury，and overall poor health.Therefore，falling asleep is a skill that we must develop.
Here are four steps that will help you through the process of trying to fall asleep：
(1)Hide the alarm clock.We all know what it's like to lie in bed and glance at the clock and do the maths：“It's 1：00；I can still get five hours of sleep.”This is not the kind of mental activity that contributes to relaxation.__2__ This will stop it from distracting you when you are trying to sleep.
(2)Take care of pressing business.If there is anything that might prevent you from relaxing when you climb into bed，write it down on a piece of paper.Doing this lets you feel as though you have taken nominal steps to address it that night.__3__
(3)Follow a single image to sleep.Pick a soothing imagesomething that brings you peace.It needs to have sufficient detail to keep your attention.__4__ But don't let it be overactive.Your mind's focus should be devoted to the colors，shapes and slow，easy movement of this image.
(4)Calm your mind.In order to calm your mind，get ready to fall asleep with the firm belief that whatever might be bothering you will still be there tomorrow，and can be dealt with then.If that thought doesn't bring you peace，you can tell yourself that losing sleep over it does nothing to help the situation；it only serves to hurt you.
Keep in mind that trying to fall asleep doesn't begin the moment you climb into bed.__5__
A．Work stress and relationship conflicts can contribute to a restless mind.
B．A solid night's sleep serves us in almost every aspect of life.
C．It can decrease the value of the hours you manage to sleep.
D．A comforting belief can pay off as you try to fall asleep.
E．So position it so that you can't see the clock face.
F．It's OK for your mind to be active in this process.
G．You should plan ahead to get a good night's sleep.
