Barbara was driving her six-year-old son, Benjamin, to his piano lesson. They were late. There was always so much to do, and Barbara, a night-duty nurse at the local hospital, had recently worked extra hours. She was tired.
“Mom!” Ben cried. “Look!” Just ahead, a car had lost control (控制) on the icy road and wildly rolled over, and then crashed (撞) into a telephone pole. Barbara went over. Thank goodness she was a nurse — she might be able to help these unfortunate passengers. Then she stopped. What about Ben? She couldn’t take him with her. Little boys shouldn’t see scenes (场面) like this one. But was it safe to leave him alone?

Two girls of high school age were in the car. One was dead and the driver was still breathing. But if help came soon, the girl would live.
A trucker had pulled up and was calling for help on his cell phone. Soon Barbara heard the ambulance sirens (救护车汽笛).

It’s three thirty in the afternoon at Raynham Primary School in London. Students are ready for their after-school math lesson.

Expert(专家) say that students usually need eight to ten hours’ sleep at night, but most Chinese students do not get enough sleep. Some Chinese parents are usually glad to see their children studying late. They will think their children work very hard, but not all parents are happy about this.
