14-year-old Brooke Erickson likes to sleep． 1 On weekends，she wants to sleep late(睡懒觉)．But Brooke' s mum thinks that Brooke should get up at the same time every day,so she'll get used to(习惯于)getting up early．

    Both(两个)Brooke and her mum are right．Sleeping late in the morning makes it more difficult to sleep at night． 2 Then it gets more difficult to get up the next morning．Getting up and going to bed at the same times every day helps the body to get enough rest(足够的休息)．

     3 They need 8 to 9 hours of sleep each night，but many of them can only get 6 to 7 hours of sleep on school nights．If someone doesn't have enough sleep for a long time，he may feel tired and not happy,and be easier to get ill．Being tired makes it more difficult to remember things，to do well in school and to do well in sports and other activities．

    Mum and dad are two of the most important people in your life. You probably see at least one of them every day. And they influence (影响) you more than anyone else you meet in your 1ife. So if your mom loves to read, you just might grow up carrying a book wherever you go, just like she does.

    But parents do a lot more than just passing on their hobbies. Mums and dads care for（关心）their children from the minute they were born. So they are the people we should respect(尊敬) and love best. It's very important to stay close, get along, and build a strong relationship with your parents. But not every child knows how to do this. Here are some ways to help you.

    Spend time together. Don't play a computer game or watch TV, ask your mum and dad to play with you. Go outside together, or read a book out loud.

    Be kind. Little things might mean a lot to your mum or dad. You can make your parents happy with a hug (拥抱), a card, or a joke（笑话）. It's also lovely when a child cleans up his or her room without being asked. And if you try not to fight with your brothers or sisters, your parents might be very happy.

    Do your best at whatever you do. You don't have to be perfect, but when you do your best, you make your parents proud(自豪). It makes them happy to see how you're turning into a great kid. Why? Because it lets them know you're doing a good job.
