A young man worked very hard at his lessons. He was too busy to have a rest. At last, he became ill, so he couldn't go to sleep. Every night, when he went to bed, he closed his eyes and tried to sleep. But he always stayed awake and couldn't fall asleep.

    After some days, he decided to see a doctor.” I just can't go to sleep at night. What should I do? Could you please help me?”

    “I have a suggestion(建议)，”said the doctor. “Try counting numbers. By the time you reach one thousand, you'll be asleep. I'm sure of it.”

    The next day the man returned to the doctor's office. “Well,” said the doctor, how are you today? Did you try my suggestion?”

    The man still looked tired. “Yes,” he said, “I tried counting one, two, three-up to one thousand. But when I reached five hundred and sixty-nine, I began to feel sleepy. I had to get up and drink some tea so that I could go on counting up to one thousand. But then I still couldn't fall asleep.”

As a teenager, Rock left high school and told jokes in comedy clubs in New York City. Even at age 18, Chris Rock was very funny. He told jokes about his family(his parents were very strict), and about growing up in Brooklyn in the 1980s.Many of his jokes were also about high school, which Rock says was terrible.

    Famous comedians(喜剧演员)went to see Rock's performances. One comedian (Eddie Murphy)helped him get work on television and in the films. Chris Rock still acts in films, but he does not want to be a serious actor. For him, comedy is more important. It makes people laugh, but it can also make people think.

It's true that three-roommates from the US had an amazing discovery(发现). They paid $20 for a sofa from a store. 

One night, they were sitting on the sofa and felt something must be in the sofa. Mr Werkhoven opened one part of the sofa and found an envelope(信封)with around $ 4, 000 in it. The roommates started opening other parts of the sofa, and kept finding more envelopes. At last they found over S 40, 000 in the sofa. 

At first, the roommates said that they were very excited. They said they even started to talk about how to spend the-money. But then the roommates found a phone number on one of the envelopes. The next day, they called the person to say what they had found. 

The owner was a 91-year-old lady. She put the money in the sofa. However, her family did not know about the money and gave the sofa away. 

The roommates drove to the woman's house to return the money. When they gave the money back, the old woman cried and gave the three roommates $ 1, 000 to express thanks. Miss Guasti said that they thought about keeping the money at first, but they knew that they would have felt wrong to use it,
