• 1．John，a very thin boy，loved football with all his heart when he was very young.Practice after practice，he eagerly gave everything he had.But being half the size of the other boys，he could only sit on the bench and hardly ever played in games.Even though the son was always on the bench，his father was always standing with cheers and encouraging him.
     When John went to college，he decided to try out for the football team as a "walk-on".Everyone was sure he could never make the cut，but he did.The coach thought he could provide the other members with the spirit they needed.
     The news that he had survived the selection excited him so much that he rushed to the nearest phone and called his father.His father shared his excitement and was sent season tickets for all the college games.
     It was the end of the last football season.One day John received a telegram and asked one week off.Nobody knew what happened except the coach.The coach said，"Don't plan to come back to the game on Saturday."
     Saturday arrived，and the game was not going well.When the team was ten points behind，John came back. "Coach，please let me play.I've just got to play today，" said John.The coach pretended not to hear him.But John persisted，and finally feeling sorry for the kid，the coach gave in.
     Before long，everyone could not believe their eyes.John was doing everything to fight.The opponents could not stop him.He ran，he passed and blocked like a star.And at last his team won the game.
     After the game，John looked at the coach，with tears in his eyes，and said，"Well，you knew my dad died，but did you know that my dad was blind？" John swallowed hard and forced a smile， "Dad came to all my games，but today was the first time he could see me play，and I wanted to show him that I could do it."

• 3．You are not alone As is often the case，you are trying hard to keep your eyes open in class after a late night doing piles and piles of homework. "（1）

  " You are probably thinking， "This weekend I'll make up for all the sleep I have lost."
     （2）

  Most people think the same way—if you stay in bed longer on Saturdays or Sundays，you will recover your missed sleep during the week.
     However，this is not correct.（3）

  Actually，researchers have just discovered that sleeping during the weekend will not do you any good，but rather make you feel more tired on Monday morning.
     Our body keeps a clock inside.It tells us when to wake up in the morning and when to feel sleepy at night.But the time on our body clock can be changed once we start taking on different sleeping habits.（4）

  This may mean on Monday morning we sometimes struggle to get out of bed.
     If we decide to get up only 20 minutes or half an hour later，it won't matter.This is because our body clock can accommodate（适应）to a delay of up to an hour，which means that a short lie-in at weekends is unlikely to have any big effect.We needn't worry about it at all.（5）

  
     So，what should we do to balance and make up for all the sleep we've missed？Scientists say that simply eight hours of sleep would do the trick，not any longer.
  
  A.You are not alone.
  B.I need more sleep!
  C.Sleep is important for everyone.
  D.Sleeping is nothing like paying back money.
  E.However，if we sleep longer，our sleep becomes less efficient.
  F.But delays of up to two hours or more can throw our body out of order.
  G.This is why staying in bed for longer than usual might confuse our body clock.
