   In the United States, most children begin attending school when they are five years old. Public education is free and most children go to school near their homes. School in those early years is fun. The children learn to read and write. But they also play games and go on trips. There is no reason at such an early age for them to hit the books.

   The situation changes as children become older. The subjects become more difficult. Students must learn about world history, and the life sciences. Tests become more common. Pressure is growing to hit the books, study hard, and advance. However, most serious students only really begin hitting the books for long hours when they reach high school.
    High school students who hope to continue their education at a college or university must take a special test called the S----A----T. The test has two parts. The first part tests the student's ability with numbers and mathematical skills. The second part tests the student's ability in the English language.
   The S----A----T test is very important.  A high school student who gets a high score on the two parts of the test has a good chance to enter a top American college. For this reason, many students hit the books for months to prepare for the S----A----T.

   Washington D.C. is the capital of the United States. It’s the center of national government. It's a busy, working city with a large population. But what is more, Washington is also a city of history and culture. It is home to many famous and interesting public buildings and monuments, many of which are connected with the federal government.

   Washington was created in 1790, when Congress (the highest lawmaking body of the United States) decided to place the nation's new capital in the east of the country. It was built half way between the northern and southern states of America. And of course it was named after George Washington, the first President of the United States.

   There are many tourist sights in Washington. Perhaps the most important tourist sight is the Capital Building. This houses the Congress.

   Another world famous building in Washington is the White House. This is the home and office of the President of the United States. Most visitors are, however, surprised by how small the White House actually is.

   Washington is also a great cultural city. The Library of Congress contains one of the largest library collections in the world. The Smithsonian Museum holds the nation's largest collection of cultural materials. And the John F. Kennedy Center is a famous center of art and culture. It has many great musical and theatre performances throughout the year.

It seems that no one really knows why we sleep. There are two theories, but a theory(理论)is only an idea or a guess. Even scientists don’t know if these theories are correct or not.

One theory of sleep is called the “Repair Theory”. This theory says that during the day we use many important chemicals in our bodies and brains(脑). So we need sleep to make new chemicals which we use the following day.

Another theory is called the “Adaptive Theory”. This theory says that sleep developed gradually and naturally because on the one hand it stopped early humans and animals from wasting energy, on the other hand it kept themselves out of danger from the other animals that killed and ate them. In other words, sleep kept them safe and out of trouble. It was necessary for their survival(生存).

Whatever the reason for sleep, everyone sleeps and everyone dreams every night. Many times we don’t remember our dreams, but we still dream. Like sleep, no one knows exactly why we dream or what dreams mean. There have been many theories about dreams. Many cultures believe that dreams can foretell the future that they can tell us what will happen to us. Some psychologists and psychiatrists(精神病学家)believe that dreams tell us about our feelings and desires.

However some scientists now believe that dreams mean nothing at all------dreams are caused by the electrical activity in our brains while we sleep and our brains try to make a story out of these meaningless patterns(图案). In fact, the dreams seem crazy and without meaning sometimes because they are crazy and without any meaning at all.
