    Johnson is a 10-year-old girl from New York City. She likes staying up late to watch movies on her iPad. Sometimes because she does not have enough sleep, she feels tired at school next morning.

    Just like Johnson, many students feel tired at school in the morning. The kids aged between 6 and 13 need nine to eleven hours of sleep each night, but most of them get less than that.

    What takes the kids' sleep time away? Smart phones and tables (智能手机和平板电脑)! A scientist said, "The kids who have these things in their bedroom often get about half an hour less sleep than those who don't."

    Scientists think a good night's rest is important to students. "The students who sleep enough can learn much better at school than those who don't," another scientist said.

    Johnson's mother said her family decided to make some new rules for her daughter. "we are going to limit(限制) Johnson' screen time and ask her to go to bed earlier than before. We hope these rules can help Johnson to sleep well for school," she said.

    Matt jumped into bed. His father sat down beside him.

    "What kind of day did you have?" he asked.

    "It was a bad day for me," Matt answered. "I had a fight with Ned. The teacher sent a note home about me. And Mom talked about it with me."

    "Yes, part of the day was bad," Mr. Gold said. "But there were good parts, too. Now it's time to go to sleep. So, tell me about the best thing today."

    Matt smiled. "After school I went fishing," he said. "No one wanted to go with me. So I had to go alone. I didn't think I would have any fun. But I did! I caught a fish!"

    "I'm glad you had a good time," Mr. Gold said. "Think about it until(直到)you go to sleep. Happy dreams!"

    "Good night, Dad," Matt said.

    His father kissed(亲吻)him good night.

    Every night, Mr. Gold and Matt have a little talk like this.

    Every night, Matt answers the same question. "What was the best thing that happened to you today?"

    Every night Matt goes to sleep thinking about the best thing. He has many happy dreams!

    Sometimes he has to think hard to find the best thing. Sometimes it is a very small thing. But he always finds one good thing to think about.

    Matt's father taught his son a good way to end his day. You may want to try it. If you do, why not begin this every night?

    Suzie goes to her art class on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. She always looks forward to those days when she can do creative things all afternoon. She loves making bowls and cups out of clay(粘土).

    Last month she learned to put pottery(陶器) into a hot oven（炉子）, called a kiln, to make it hard and strong. What Suzie likes best about art is the good feeling she gets when she has finished working on a piece of art. And then when she takes it home to show her parents she feels so proud of what she has made.

    On Wednesday Suzie wrote an article about why she thought the school should have two short breaks a day rather than one long break. Lots of her friends thought that this would be a good idea too. Many teachers also agreed with Suzie's suggestion.

    The head teacher of the school asked everyone in the school to vote(表决)on Suzie's suggestion. During the vote, each person in the school had one vote. Together, the school decided that two short breaks would be better than one long break. All of this happened because Suzie wrote about her idea in the school newspaper.

    On the day the newspaper comes out, the first thing Suzie does is to check where her article is in the newspaper. And each month, at the beginning of her article, are the words: By Suzanne Jefferson.

    On the way home from school yesterday, Suzie got to think about how much art and writing are the same. In art class she thinks of creative things to make, and then spends a lot of time making it look just right.

    And when she writes articles for the school newspaper, she thinks of creative things to say, and then spends a lot of time making it sound just right. And when she has finished writing a really good sentence, she feels almost as if she has made a beautiful piece of art.

    Suzie rushed home so she could write something shortly before dinner. She already had lots of ideas for next month's newspaper. And she wanted to make sure that none of her creative ideas floated away before she wrote them down on paper

My Experiences of Becoming a Singer

Last week, I had a concert in Hangzhou. It. was my fifth concert this year, and I'd like to say thanks to the support from all my fans.

Jasmine sat sewing (缝) a handkerchief in the garden. Suddenly, a little insect came running in such a hurry across the small stone. Immediately, an idea 1 Jasmine. She dropped her thimble (顶针) over the little ant. Seeing him running round and round to find the exit, Jasmine thought it was 2 and laughed out loud. As night 3 , she ran away for dinner and forgot all about him.

That night, the rain 4 The handkerchief left outside was wet through as if somebody had been 5 very much. 

The next morning, As Jasmine went out to fetch it, she remembered who was under the thimble. But when she lifted up the thimble, the little tiny ant lay 6 there! 

"Why did you do that, Jasmine?" came Dad's voice. 

"I didn't 7 to, Dad." Jasmine almost cried. 

"See! He moves one of his 8 . Run to the house and get some honey for him!"

Then 9 Jasmine put a drop of honey before the tiny ant. 

Now the ant 10 a fairy tongue (舌头) to enjoy the sweet honey. Soon, he grew well, trying to run. 

"He wants to run home." said Dad. "I know where he lives. In a little round world of ants, under the apple tree."

"And has he got a wife and children—a lot of little ants at home?"

"Well, there are father ants and mother ants, and lots of other ants who are 11 to the little ones. 12 knows his own children, but all the grown-up ones are kind to all the babies. See how he hurries off!"

While they were talking, the little ant was soon 13 among the grass. In a little while came the ant with a group of friends. 

"He has been home and told them the good 14 about the honey," said Dad. "Do you think that all children are as kind as that?"

"No, I don't run to call my friends when I find a good place of blackberries."

"Then," said father, "just learn from the ant, 15 he is only a little tiny thing."
