Is sleep important for children? A new study says yes.
In America, most people don't get enough sleep. Children aged 5 to 12 are advised to sleep 10 to 11 hours every night, but most of them can't sleep that long. A study found that about 41 million American workers got less than six hours of sleep every night. Scientists worry that parents are passing their poor sleeping habits down to their children.
In the study, Reut Gruber and some other scientists either added or reduced(减少) one hour of sleep for healthy children aged 7 to 11. They watched the children for five nights. They wanted to know if the amount of sleep can affect(影响) a child's behavior.
Before the study began, students were asked to sleep the same amount of hours as usual. Their teachers were asked to record their behavior. After changing the children's sleep for five nights, the teachers had to record again. According to the two records, scientists found that those who slept one hour less behaved worse than those who slept one hour more. Students with less sleep were more likely(可能的) to feel sad and had more problems paying attention.
The scientists chose to study children in their homes instead of in a laboratory, because they wanted to find out how everyday changes might affect children's behavior at school. "In the study, nobody became a talent, and nobody became crazy. But small changes in children can really make a big difference," says Gruber.

Most of us think the telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}In fact, an Italian named Antonio Meucci was officially recognised(认定)as the inventor a few years ago. Who is Meucci and why wasn't he known for his invention at the time?
Antonio Meucci was born in Italy in 1808. He studied engineering and drawing. During his studies, Meucci started to experiment with electricity. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}When two places were connected with wire, people in those places could hear each other talk.
In 1850, Meucci and his wife. Ester, moved to New York. Meucci was worried about his wife, because she had become very ill. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}To solve this problem, he connected metal cables between his home and his workshop. This way, they could talk to each other conveniently.
Meucci invited a group of people to see his new invention. They listened in amazement as the voice of a singer was heard through the wires.
{#blank#}4{#/blank#} Even worse, Meucci never applied for a patent (专利) on his invention. Meanwhile, Alexander Graham Bell was working on the same idea and in 1876 the patent for the telephone was given to him.
In 2002, more than a century after Meucci's death, his work was finally recognised by the government. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}
A. He discovered that sound could travel through metal cables. B. However, he wasn't the first person to think of the idea. C. Unfortunately, only a few people attended this talk. D.

In a school, some students didn't follow the school rules. They always caused trouble.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}They never meant to forgive (原谅) each other.
One day a new teacher came to this school.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}He told each of his students to bring a bag of potatoes to school. For every person they didn't want to forgive, they chose a potato, wrote the person's name on it, and put it in the bag.
Some of their bags were very heavy.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}They would put them beside their beds at night, on the seats when they sit in a car or on a bus, and next to their desks at school. They had to take care of them all the time so that they didn't forget them.{#blank#}4{#/blank#} Days of carrying the bags along with them made students get to know what a weight (重量) they were carrying in their minds. After that, the students learned to forgive.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}
Too often we think of forgiveness as a gift to other people, and it clearly is for ourselves!
