  Try this:for a whole day, forget about the clock.Eat when you're hungry and sleep when you're tired.What do you think will happen?

  You may be surprised to find that your day is much like most other days.You'll probably get hungry when you normally eat and tired when you normally sleep.Even though you don't know what time it is, your body does.

  Inside our bodies are several clocklike systems that follow a 24- hour cycle.Everyone is unique, which is why you might like to stay up late while your sister always wants to go to bed early.

  Regularly staying up late can make kids do worse on tests and quizzes.And working shifts at night leads to higher rates of heart disease.

  “There is a growing sense that when we eat and when we sleep are important parts of how healthy we are,” says Steven Shea, Director of the Sleep Disorders Research Program at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.

  “During the night, we are prepared to sleep,” Shea says.“During the day, we are prepared to eat and move around, If you reverse(顛倒)what you are doing, everything is out of phase.That can have adverse consequences.

閱讀理解。
     I have been a friend of Bill Gates for a long time. I knew him when he was a student at Harvard
University. We were surprised when he left University to set up his own company "Microsoft" and make
his own software.
But he was the clever one! He is very good at writing computer languages and almost
all computers now use Microsoft software. The program "Word" is used from Britain to China!
     Of course he has made a lot of money and that makes people very jealous. They want to stop his success.
Even the government is against him and has tried to break his company into two parts. The government says
that it is unfair to other people who want to sell similar software. And what's more, because he fits his new
software free in every new computer, the government says he is stopping other companies from selling their
programs. This is not fair. Everyone should be able to do what they can to make their company bigger and
stronger. Bill Gates has only done what he can to stop other competitors.
     He is very rich, but he is generous. He has given millions of dollars to help the education and health of
many children around the world. You could not meet a better man than Bill Gates.
