17、other as a barber.Saturday was his busiest hair-cutting day,but he chose to donate his time and give free haircuts to unfortunate kids so theyd look neat on that first day of classes.But then he had a light bulb moment:“The kids should earn their free haircut by having to read a book to me,” Holmes

18、said.The idea was so popular that he continued it for the next two years.Boys from five to ten years old would grab a favorite book,settle into the barber chair,and read aloud while Holmes was doing their hair.If they were puzzled over a word,Holmes was there to help.After the haircut,theyd review t

24、ool BashC.Reading Counts a LotD.Care About the KidsCFew things are more satisfying than sleeping late on weekends.But though the extra sleep may improve your mood,it does not appear to improve your health.A new study shows that so-called “recovery sleep” cannot reset the body clock and may actually

25、lead to some serious health problems.Christopher Depner,an assistant professor at the Department of Integrative Physiology of the University of Colorado Boulder,said,“Sleep loss can influence a range of physiological systems.It can increase our risk of high blood pressure and heart disease,it can ca

26、use weight gain,and it can increase our risk of diabetes(糖尿病).”In the study,Depner and his colleagues divided the volunteers into three groups.One group was allowed to get a full nights sleep.The next was kept to just five hours each night.And the third group went back and forth,limited to five hour

27、s of shut-eye during the weekdays,but allowed as much sleep as they wanted on the weekend.“We found that a loss of sleep leads to a sharp increase in snacking.But even more surprising,sleeping on the weekend doesnt helpand even makes things worse,” said Depner.“After the weekend,when they went back

28、to getting inadequate sleep during the work or school week,their liver and muscle insulin (胰岛素) sensitivity or blood sugar regulation was reduced.And this is not something we found in people who had long-term inadequacy sleep schedules.So its possible that this is a worsening of the bodys ability to

29、 regulate blood sugar for these specific tissues after the weekend.”So make a date with a pillow.And trade the sweets for sweet dreams.8.What effect does sleep loss have on people?A.It results in changes in their moods.B.It does harm to the body clock.C.It damages the liver severely.D.It makes peopl

32、hion.DCertainly,a well-rounded (全面的) education is the foundation (基础) from which all of us spring forth.I am grateful to many great teachers who have inspired me to do greater things,and have fired my enthusiasm for everlasting learning!But,sometimes I wonder if the outline of our educational plan i

33、s lacking something.I watched the movie EasyA with my daughter.The main characters parents were loving,supportive,and built great confidence in their children and developed their ability to handle their own problems.There was a scene where the mother was speaking to the younger child who announced t

34、hat he received an “A” on his spelling test.She replied,“Thats great,honey,but everything has spell check these days.”It was funnybut TRUE!I dont mean that we shouldnt teach our children how to spell,but maybe some of our time should be spent educating them about the dangers of posting things on Met

35、a.Maybe we might want to spend time showing them how real life worksthe credit card isnt free moneyyou will have to pay it back at sometime.Oh,and get thisthey charge you for borrowing that money.Perhaps,we should spend some time on interpersonal relationships.I worry that our kids do not know how t

36、o relate to one another.Choosing a career is a daunting task.My daughter is in her second year in college and has changed her major(主修课程) twice.Its not that she didnt know what she wanted to do.What she “wanted to do” and the course she chose did not match.I have learned many college students do not

37、 know what they want to do because they havent seen what it looks like in the real world.Being a journalist in the real world looks very different from writing stories.Maybe if we spent some time exposing them to real life experiencemaybe two or three courses in areas of interest in high school that

38、 give them a “feel” for what that particular field would look like,they might be better prepared.I do not know the solution,but it seems that it should at least be a topic of discussion.12.Why does the author mention the movie EasyA?A.To share the movie with readers.B.To show parents love for their
