阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
Most high schools begin their day around 7:00 a.m., which leaves many teenagers nodding off in the morning. In fact, at least 20 percent of high school students fall asleep in class on a typical day. The problem: Teenagers need a lot of sleep－about nine hours each night, experts say. And most of them aren’t getting enough.
To help sleepy teens, some school districts of USA have tried delaying the opening of the high school day. The Minneapolis school district, for example, changed its start time from 7:20 to 8:40 a.m., giving its 12,000 high schoolers an extra hour and twenty minutes each morning.
Researches show that students in schools of these districts benefit a lot from the change. Students reported less depression when there was a later starting time. And teachers reported that students were more alert and ready for learning. Parents reported that their children were easier to live with because their emotions were more regulated.
Teachers especially wanted a change because they were concerned about student attendance and student readiness to learn that first period of the day. The change resulted in better attendance and less student sleeping in class that first hour.

August 6, 2010                           Sunny
Half of my summer vocation has passed. It's supposed to be the time for me, a senior- one student, to relax, read novels, chat with friends and, anyway, not to worry about getting up at 7 am for class.
Even before the vocation, I had been arranged to attend different "enrichment" classes to improve my main subjects. My mum did ask for my opinion whether I would like to go to such classes. But could I refuse? My negative reply would cause a long persuasion, which I would not face.
Besides, the teachers made summer homework lists as we were sent off for vocation. The reason sounds persuasive -- to keep us studying during the long break so we wouldn't forget our lessons.
I found that the joy of my summer vocation had been stolen. But do I blame my mum or my teachers? Of course not. Though I don't like listening to my mum's lessons about society competition, I still understand that I should do well in study. What bothers me is that I don't feel like sitting in the classroom focusing my mind on the teachers' lectures. My mind is staying outdoors, tasting the freedom of the blue skies, the power of sunshine and the comfort of gentle wind....... not only scores or certificates.
