In America, most people don’t get enough...

In America, most people dont get enough sleep. Children aged 5 to 12 are advised to sleep 10 to 11 hours every night, but most of them cant sleep that long. A study found that about 41 million American workers got less than six hours of sleep every night. Scientists worry that parents are passing their bad sleeping habits down to their children.

In the study, Reut Gruber and some other scientists either added or reduced on hour of sleep for healthy children aged 7 to 11. They watched the children for five nights. They wanted to know if the amount of sleep can affect a childs behavior.

Before the study began, students were asked to sleep the same amount of hours as usual. Their teachers were asked to record their behavior. After five nights of the records, scientists found that those who slept one hour less behaved worse than those who slept one hour more. Students with less sleep were more likely to feel sad and had more problems paying attention.

The scientists chose to study children in their homes instead of in a laboratory, because they wanted to find out how everyday changes might affect childrens behavior at school. In the study, nobody became a talent, and nobody became crazy. But small changes in children can really make a big difference, says Gruber.

The food guide pyramid(金字塔)was the model for healthy eating in the United States. Now it has been replaced(代替)by a colorful platecalled MyPlatewith some of the same messages: Eat different kinds of foods, and eat less of some foods and more of others.

The pyramid has six parts to show the five food groups and fats, oils and sweets. Basic(基本的)foods are at the bottom(底部)and include bread and rice. In two middle parts are vegetables and fruits. In two top parts are milk and cheese, and meat, fish, eggs and so on.

The plate has four parts: vegetables, fruits, grains, and protein, and a side order of dairy(乳制品)in blue. The big message is that fruits and vegetables take up half the plate and the vegetable part is a little bigger than the fruit part. The grain part is bigger than the protein part. The MyPlate seems to be encouraging us to eat different food groups at each meal.

It was a bright Saturday morning. I stopped at a café to enjoy a cup of coffee and read the morning newspaper. Suddenly, I felt a hand on the back of my jacket and heard someone say, “Hey Steve! How are you doing?”

    Looking back, I saw a man. He looked familiar, but I couldnt remember where we had met.

    The young man also held a cup of coffee, so I asked him to join me. Very soon, his story began to thaw out my memory.

     Five years earlier, Johnson was traveling home late on a February night. A heavy snow had arrived that afternoon, and by midnight, the snowdrifts(雪堆)were getting deep. His car was stuck in a snowdrift just down the road from my house.

     He walked to my house for help. I helped him pull his car out of the snowdrift and up to the street where the snow had been cleaned away.

     This was a normal happening here during the winter. I couldnt count the times someone has helped me to pull my car from a snowdrift. However, it was an unforgettable experience for him. He was only eighteen at that time, and he said he was very afraid. No one wants to be stuck in a snowdrift at night.

Sometimes, one simple kindness at the right moment can change the direction of a life. So, be kind and helpful.
