　　In a 2005 survey of 2005 schoolchildren in six cities, including Beijing and Shanghai, it was found that about 77％ of them were short of sleep．Should school hours be cut?In new survey taken by the China Daily website, almost 70％ of the 1, 133 people online agreed with cutting school hours, while 20％ disagreed and 10％ gave no answer．

　　In the summer of 1978 an English man named Steven was driving his tractor through a field of wheat when he discovered something strange．Some of his wheat was lying on the ground．The flattened wheat formed(形成)a circle about six meters across．Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat．

　　Three years later a farmer who lived nearby discovered almost the same circles in one of his fields．These circles were larger－nearly 15 meters across．That same year , another English farmer discovered three circles of flattened wheat on his land－one large circle between two small circles．During the following years, farmers in England found circles in their fields more and more often．

　　The circles are called “crop circles” because they usually appear in fields of wheat or corn．The wheat in the circles lies on the ground but is never broken; it keeps on growing, and the farmers can later harvest it．Farmers always discover the crop circles in the morning, so the circles probably form at night．They appear only in the months from May to September．What causes the crop circles?

　　At first, people thought that some kids were making them as a joke, or that farmers were making them to attract tourists．(In fact, in 1991, two men said they made the circles themselves, but many scientists don't believe them．)People tried to copy them：They tried to make circles exactly like the ones the farmers had found．They couldn't do it．They couldn't enter a field of wheat without leaving tracks, and they couldn't flatten the wheat without breaking it．

　　Several times people reported seeing stranger objects near the fields where crop circles later appeared．Many people believe that these crop circles are the messages sent by living things from outer space(外層空間)or the marks left by their spaceships．

　　Scientists who have studied the crop circles try to find out what causes them．In the summer of 1990 some scientists spent three weeks in the part of England where many circles have appeared．They had all the latest high-tech equipment(最新高科技設(shè)備)．The equipment－worth 1.8 million dollars－got nothing．But one night, as the scientists were watching a field, crop circles formed in the field behind them, which were quite different from the others．The scientists had neither seen nor heard anything．

　　When Steven discovered the crop circles on his land in 1978, he said, “It was just like something that had landed in the field from the air and gone back up again．I don't know what to make of these things．”

　　Crop circles have appeared in England, Japan, the United States and Russia．Experts from all over the world have studied them, and they say what Steven said：They don't know what to make of these things．

　　The world is not only hungry，but it is also thirsty for water．This may seem strange to you，since nearly 70 % of the earth's surface is covered with water．But about 97 % of that is sea water，or salt water．Man can only drink and use the other 3 % ——the fresh(清新的)water from rivers，lakes，underground，and other sources．And we can not even use all of that．Even worse，some of it has been made dirty．

　　However，as things stand today，this fresh water is still enough for us．But our need for water is becoming larger and larger quickly-almost day by day．Only if we take steps to do with this problem now can we get away from a serious world-wide water shortage later on．

　　We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water．One of the first steps is to develop ways of refusing it．Today in most large cities，water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system(下水道系統(tǒng))．From there it returns to the sea or runs into underground places．

　　But even if every large city reused its water，we still would not have enough．All we'd have to do to make use of sea water in the world is to remove(清除)the salt．If we take these steps we'11 be in no danger of drying up．

　　In the U．S．, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know．If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without first asking if it will disturb them．

　　At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap(水龍頭)water before you order．You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill．

　　Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing times for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars．Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day．

　　Servings[(食物的)份] in restaurants are often large, too large for many people．If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a“doggie bag”．It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself．

　　Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal．Some people have“Sunday dinner”．This is an especially big noon meal．

　　Tips(小費)are not usually added to the check．They are not included in the price of the meal, either．A tip of about 15％is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave．In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there．Then the waiter of waitress brings you your change．
