Nightingale was the world’s first great nurse. She was born in a rich family in 1820, in Florence, Italy. She could have lived an easy, comfortable life. But instead, she chose to work hard and care for the sick. Because she is one of the world’s greatest nurses, every year on her birthday, May 12, people celebrate International Nurses’ Day to remember the love and help that she gave to so many people.

When she was 24, she told her parents she wanted to be a nurse. But they didn’t like the idea. The family had lots of money, so they thought it would be better if she didn’t work. Nurses were not very well respected at that time. But Nightingale went on with her dream. She went to Germany to learn to be a nurse. There were no nursing schools at that time. She had to learn by practising. During a war in 1854, Nightingale and a team of 38 nurses from England went to care for soldiers near Turkey. She made the hospitals much cleaner there. At night, she would look after the soldiers. She carried a lamp(灯) with her, and soldiers began to call her “The Lady with the Lamp”. In 1860, after the war, Nightingale opened the first nursing school. She also worked to make hospitals better and make rules for nurses. She died in 1910 in London, England at the age of 90. Nightingale’s birthday became International Nurses’ Day in 1974.

You may know about “junk food” like French fries. But do you know about “junk sleep”? Recently, a British survey（调查）shows that there are many electronic products in teenagers’ bedrooms. They are influencing teenagers’ sleep badly.

The survey was done among 1,000 British kids from 12 to 16. It found that 50% of them got just 4 to 7 hours’ sleep every day. But doctors say they need 8 to 9 hours.

Almost 25% of the kids said they often fell asleep while they were watching TV, listening to music or using other electronic products.

“This is very worrying,” said Dr. Chris, a British professor（教授）. “We call it ‘junk sleep’. It means you don’t get enough sleep and the quality（质量）of the sleep is low, too. If you don’t get a good rest, you won’t do well in school the next day.”

The survey found that quite a few of the kids felt tired each day because of the junk sleep, especially girls between 13 and 16 feeling the worst. Nearly all the teenagers have a phone, MP5 or TV in their bedrooms. And lots of them even have all the three.

Dr. Chris suggested that parents should help their children keep away from electronic products, and teenagers should spend less time on the electronic products.

What is a tsunami（海啸）? Tsunamis are often caused by earthquakes or volcanoes（火山）. The average speed（平均速度）of the waves（波浪）is 300 mph and the waves can last from five minutes to an hour.

What to do in a tsunami?

Firstly, when a strong earthquake is felt, leave the water at once, get to the shore（海岸）and go as far away as you can from the beach fast. If it allows, go to a higher ground.

Secondly, turn on the TV for news and weather report. They will tell you more about the tsunami.

Thirdly, get all members of your family together and let everyone know the tsunami is coming. Choose a place to stay together. Make sure the place is safe and as far away from the shore as possible. Bring emergency supplies（应急用品）when you have to leave your house.

At last, if you find a huge wave is coming, climb onto the roof of your house or on the highest point of the nearest building. Hold on to anything that’s strong enough. Climb a tree if you have to.

For a tsunami, the only way to survive（幸免于）it is to be prepared.

In China, many students spend much of their time on their studies, and don’t help with housework at home. As a result, they lack basic skills.

Luckily, things are changing. Last year, many schools began to teach students life skills.

Guangming Middle School in Sichuan set up some farming clubs. There students learnt to plant vegetables. “At first I thought I could only grow some vegetables here, but actually, I learnt a lot about vegetables.” said Chen Jia, a girl at the school.

In Hope Middle School, students have a special life skill class: they learn to make dumplings in different kinds of shapes. “I couldn’t make dumplings before, but now I am good at doing it. I really love my life skill class. It’s my favourite class.” said Zhang Yan, a boy at the school.

In fact, learning life skills is as important as learning Chinese and maths, because it helps us prepare for our future life. Boys and girls, do you help your parents do housework at home? If not, maybe you should get started now.
