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

This is an old English saying (谚语). It means that we should go to bed early at night and get up early in the morning. If we do, we shall be healthy. We shall also be rich and clever.

Is this true? Perhaps it is. The body must have enough sleep. Children of your age need ten hours’ sleep every night. If you go to bed late, you can’t have enough sleep. Then you can’t think carefully and your homework will be wrong. You will not be wise and you may not become wealthy!

Some people go to bed late at night and get up late in the morning. This is not good for them. We should sleep at night when it is dark. The dark helps us sleep well. When the daylight comes, we should get up. This is the time for exercise. If the body is not used, it will become weak. Exercise keeps it strong.

Exercise helps the blood (血液) to move around inside the body. Blood takes nutrition (营养) to all parts of our bodies. The brains (大脑) in our heads also need blood. We think with our brains. If we keep our bodies healthy, and take exercise, we can think better!

Our bodies also need air to breathe (呼吸). Without air we will die. Get up early in the morning and we can have plenty of clean, fresh air. That will keep us healthy and happy.

The giraffe is the tallest modern land animal. It can be over 5. 5 meters tall. Its neck alone may be 1. 9 meters long. Yet the giraffe has only seven bones in its neck, the same number as in the humans’. Even a small bird has many more bones in its neck than a tall giraffe. Each bone in a giraffe’s neck is very long, while the bones in a human’s neck are short. That makes the difference. A female giraffe gives birth to one baby at a time. The baby, called a calf, is about 1. 9 meters tall at birth. By the age of eight it is full-grown. The giraffe eats mostly leaves. Because it has a long neck, it can reach the high leaves on the trees.

In the world, soccer (or football) is the most popular sport. This is because many countries have wonderful teams for the World Cup. The World Cup is held every four years.

To remember the 2002 FIFA World Cup, children from different countries and more than 60 children from different Japanese schools came together and spent three weeks drawing a big picture called“Dream (梦幻) World Cup”in Japan. The children drew animals, flowers and people playing soccer under bright blue sky. They wished each football team good luck by drawing the flags (旗帜) of all countries that would take part in the World Cup in Japan and South Korea. The picture was put up in a park near a playground in Yokohama.

下面是两封Celia写给她的老师Mr. Scott的信以及Mr. Scott给她的回信。

Dear Mr. Scott,

I’m writing to complain about my deskmate, Lana.

She likes junk food (垃圾食品) and she always brings some to school. After she eats it, she drops the litter into my desk. She also has a bad habit. After she borrows my pencil, she doesn’t return it. I get angry when she copies (抄袭) my homework. And she sometimes makes ink marks (墨迹) on my clothes with her pen. These things always happen and she doesn’t care about my feelings. I need your help. Can you let me have another deskmate?

Yours,

Celia

Dear Celia,

I’m sorry to hear that Lana has so many bad habits. And I’m glad that you discuss your problems with me.

I talked to Lana yesterday. She said she did these things because of her carelessness (粗心). She wanted to be polite with our help. She agreed to put the litter in a bag. She said she would do her own homework and be careful with her pen. She asked you to remind (提醒) her by saying“Would you mind returning my pencil?”

Would you mind not changing your deskmate? She is a nice girl. It’s important for you to help each other and you will understand each other better.

Yours,

Scott
