Liu Sanzi is an eight﹣year﹣old boy from a village in Hunan Province.He has to give up going to school.It's important for him to work on their farm because there are seven people in Liu's family and they are very poor.

Bamboo is one of the nature's most surprising plants.(1)许多人称这种植物为树,但它是一种草.

Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe.(2)There are more than 1000 kinds of bamboo that grow around the world on both mountains and plains (平原).

    Not all bamboo looks the same.Some bamboo plants are very thin.They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across.This plant also comes in different colors,from yellow to black to green.

    Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years.They often use bamboo for building new buildings.As a matter of fact,the cables (绳索) that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo.The bridge has been in use for more than 1,000 years,and is still holding strong.

Fifteen years ago,I drove a taxi for a living.One day I went to pick up a passenger at 2:40 A.M.When I arrived there,I walked to the door and knocked."Just a minute,"answered a weak,elderly voice.

After a while,the door opened.A small woman stood before me.She was more than eighty years old.By her side was a big bag.

When we get into the taxi,she gave me an address,and then asked."Could you drive through downtown?"

"It's not the shortest way."I answered quickly.

"Oh,I'm in no hurry,"she said."I'm on my way to a hospice (临终关怀医院).I don't have any family left.The doctor says I don't have very long."

I quietly reached over and shut off the meter (计程表)

For the next two hours,we drove through the city.She showed me the building where she had once worked,the neighborhood where she had lived,and the place where she had gone dancing as a girl.

Sometimes she'd ask me to slow down in front of a special building and would sit staring into the darkness,saying nothing.

We drove in silence to the address she had given me

"How much do I pay you?"she asked.

"Nothing."I said.

"You have to make a living,"she answered.

"Oh,there are other passengers."I answered.

Almost without thinking,I gave her a hug (拥抱).She held on me and said."You gave an old woman a moment of joy."

62.How old was the woman?  

63.Where did the woman want to go?

Most teens need more than 9hours of sleep each night.But about 1in 4teens has trouble in sleeping.Lack(缺少) of sleep can affect everything from our feelings to how well we focus on tasks like studying.It can also influence sports performance,increase our chances of getting sick,and may be related to weight gain in some people.

Keep a sleep routine(常规).Going to bed at the same time every night helps the body expect sleep.Creating a set bedtime routine can improve this relaxation effect.Spending time with a pet,writing a diary or doing anything else can relax you.

Expect a good night's sleep.Instead of worrying that you won't sleep,remind(提醒) yourself that you can.Say"Tonight,I will sleep well"several times during the day.It can also help to practice breathing exercises or gentle exercises before bed.
