Mr. and Mrs Black live in a small house near London with their children. Usually Mr Black comes back from work very late. At that time, his wife and the children are sleeping. So he opens the front door of his house with his keys and comes into the house quietly.
One night he comes home very late. It is 11:00 p.m. But he can’t find his keys. He rings the bell(门铃). Nothing happens(发生). He rings it again. Again nothing happens. No one can hear it. Mr. Black knocks on the bedroom window. He calls his wife’s name. He shouts but his wife doesn’t wake up. At last he stops and thinks for a few minutes. Then he begins to speak like a small child. “Mother,” he says. “I want to go to WC.” Mrs Black wakes up at once (立刻). Then he speaks to her, and she opens the door for him.
【小题1】Mr. Black and his wife live in ______.

Expert(专家) say that students usually need eight to ten hours’ sleep at night, but most Chinese students do not get enough sleep. Some Chinese parents are usually glad to see their children studying late. They will think their children work very hard, but not all parents are happy about this. Once a mother told us that every morning her 10-year-old boy put up one finger (手指) with his eyes still closed, begging(请求) for one more minute to sleep. Like thousands of students “early birds” in China, he has to get up before six every morning.

  A report shows that without a good night’s sleep, students seem to be weaker (虚弱) than they should be. Many students have fallen asleep during class at one time or another. Too much homework is not the only reason why students stay up late. Some watch TV or play the computer games late into the night.

   Experts have ever said that the students should develop good study habits. So some clever students never study last, they are able to work well in class.

Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.

This is an old English saying. Have you heard of it before? It means that we must go to bed early and get up early in the morning. Then we shall be healthy. We shall also be rich (wealthy) and clever (wise).

This is true. The body must have enough sleep to be healthy. Children of young age should have ten hours’ sleep every night. Children who do not have enough sleep cannot do their work very well. They will not be wise and they may not become wealthy!

The body also needs exercise. Walking, running, jumping, swimming and playing games are all exercise. Exercise keeps the body strong. Exercise also helps the blood (血液) to move around inside the body. This is very important. Our blood takes food to all parts of our body. The head also needs blood .Exercise helps us to think better!
