There are many things we need to know that we do not learn at school. For example, if we want to use our money wisely(智慧地), we need to shop carefully. We need to know how to compare the prices of the thing in different shops. We need to be able to compare the quality of different brands(品牌). We need to know how to make a choice(选择) when we shop.

?? Knowing how to make such choices is a “life skill”, and we need these skills if we want to live useful and happy lives.

?? Some of these choices are small. For example, will I take an apple for lunch or a pear? Will I go to school by bus or on foot? Will I wear the red T-shirt or the blue one to the movies? Other choices are more important. For example, will I eat healthy food for lunch or will I eat junk food because it is nicer? Will I work hard in all my classes or will I only work hard in the classes I enjoy? We make choices like this every day.

?? We have to realize that the choices we make can affect(影响) the rest of our lives. Just as importantly, our choices can also affect other people. The next time you decide to waste time in class, play a joke on someone or talk loudly at the movies, think about this: Who else does your choice affect?

Is it difficult for you to get up in the morning ?  Hiroyuki’s bed will solve your problem ! Here is how it works .
The bed is connected to an alarm clock . First , the alarm clock rings . You have a few minutes to wake up . Next , a tape recorder in the bed plays soft music . The tape recorder in Hiroyuki’s bed plays a recording of his girlfriend . She whispered in a soft voice , “Wake up , darling , please .”  After minutes later , Hiroyuki hears a recording of his boss . His boss shouts , “Wake up at once , or you’ll be late !”
If you don’t get up after the second recording , a mechanical “foot” in the bed will kick you in the head . The bed waits a few more minutes . What ! You’re still in bed ! Slowly the top of the bed rises higher and higher . The foot of the bed goes lower and lower . Finally you slide off the bed and onto the floor . You are out of bed awake !
Hiroyuki’s bed is not in stores . There is only one bed--- the bed Hiroyuki made for a contest（竞赛）. Maybe someday a company will make Hiroyuki’s bed and sell it in stores . Maybe people will buy millions of beds . Then Hiroyuki will be rich . If the bed makes Hiroyuki rich , he won’t need to work , and he won’t need to get up early !
