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.

（1）、Why does Johnson sometimes feel tired at school in the morning?

A、Because he does not like studying. B、Because he has some health problems. C、Because he often stays up late. D、Because he gets up too early in the morning.

      Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches along the highway I travel daily to work.
      There are some particular blue flowers that have always caught my eye. I've noticed that they bloom only in the morning hours and the afternoon sun is too warm for them. Every day for about two weeks, I see those beautiful flowers.
     This spring, I started a wildflower garden in our yard. I can look out of the kitchen window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers. Every day I drove past the flowers thinking, “I'll stop on my way home and dig them.” “Gee, I don't want to get my good clothes dirty…” Whatever the reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband even gave me a folding shovel（铲子）one year in my car to be used for that expressed purpose.
       One day on my way home from work, I was shocked to see that the highway department had destroyed the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, “Way to go, you waited too long. You should have done it when you first saw them blooming this spring.” A week ago we were shocked and saddened to learn that my oldest sister has a terminal brain tumor（肿瘤）. She is 20 years older than me and unfortunately, because of age and distance, we haven't been as close as we all would have liked. I couldn't help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful memories that will bloom every year for us.
    And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, you can bet I'll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden.

①Last year I spent my whole winter vacation in the US with my host family. The most unforgettable experience I had there was joining the Boy Scouts (童子军) of America. It was there that I got to face a great challenge: camping in the rain.

②One Saturday, we went hiking in the rain for more than six hours. When we finally reached the camping site, my shoes, my clothes, my bag and all the things inside it were totally soaked.

③Then, an even worse thing happened. Our guide teacher stepped out and said: “Today's hiking is a test. We're not going back home tonight! We have to live here tonight!” Soon we began to accept the truth and went to work. We just covered ourselves with a kind of plastic sheet and lay down by the campfire. While sleeping, I woke up several times. But to my surprise, I adapted (适应) to the environment quickly. Many others didn't even fall asleep.

④The sun finally rose and our hope returned. The bus came at 6 am and sent us back to our lovely home.

⑤Many in China say that children in the US were born with an adventurous spirit. But I think they were born with nothing different. Instead, they make differences by facing troubles positively. The camping adventure was a gift they gave themselves. Many Chinese children are over-protected when they are growing up. Therefore, when facing troubles, how can it be possible for us to react positively?

Once upon a time, there lived a teacher in a small town. He often taught his students in special ways. Once he sent four of his students to go to a small farm to see apple trees in different seasons. The first student went in winter, the second in spring, the third in summer, and the last in autumn.

After the four students came back, the teacher called them together. They described their feelings to the teacher. The first student said that there were no leaves on the trees. It made him very disappointed(失望的). The second student said his eyes were full of light green. It made him feel hopeful. The third one disagreed. "What are you talking about? How pretty the trees were! The sweet smell(气味) of the beautiful flowers is everywhere." The last one shook his head. He only saw a lot of apples on the beautiful trees.

The teacher smiled and told his students none of them were wrong. They each just saw one season. He continued, "The trees are not the same in different seasons. You can't judge(评价) a tree by only one season."

Everything has different sides in our life. Don't hurry to make a conclusion(结论) before seeing the whole of it.
