Dreams
"Dreams(梦) may be more important than sleep. We all need to dream," some scientists say.
Dreams take up about one quarter of our sleeping time. People have several dreams each night. Dreams are like short films. They are usually in colour. Some dreams are like old films. They come to us over and over again. That maybe because the dreamer is worrying about something. Dreaming maybe a way of trying to find an answer.
Some people get new ideas about their work from dreams. They may have been thinking about their work all day. These thoughts can carry over into dreams.
Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream. But often we can't remember the dream. Dreams can disappear(消失) quickly from memory(记忆).
Too much dreaming can be harmful(有害的). The more we sleep, the longer we dream. The mind is hard at work when we dream. That is why we may have a long sleep and still wake up tired.

On June 28, my parents celebrated 70 years of marriage. Mum and Dad live in Calve. They have been through years of hard work and good times always supporting each other.
As a child, I remember my parents working side by side for spring, fall, winter, and summer cleaning or working in the yard, or painting, and wallpapering.
My parents bought a house in Eimont. They never believed they’d be able to own their own home, and to them, it was their castle. They worked hard to decorate it and kept it looking beautiful. They taught us to work hard and to enjoy everything we had.
Mom likes everything-sightseeing, clubs, anything. And everything Dad, even today, can't understand why she always wants to go out! Mom is still active with the Red Hatters women's group and her gardening club. Dad spoils her by taking care of the house, but also watches a lot of baseball and does jigsaw puzzles.
The key to their successful marriage is that they respect each other. With the help of my brother, they also stay current with new technology, Their latest acquisition is an iPad.
My brother, who is 67, and I (now 69),have always known we are lucky to have such great parents. They have shown us what love is, what hard work is, and what respect is all about.
My daughter and I try to see them almost every weekend when we play cards together and catch up on the week's news.
My parents are the glue that holds our whole family together, making holidays and ordinary days special to us all.
I know we are lucky to have them both, I even save all of their voice-mail messages, just so I'll have their voice to hear when they are not here, But Mom keeps telling us all she's certainly going to live to be 100. So we will have a few more holidays, birthdays, and memories to experience.

Benefits of Reading Every Day
Reading printed books every day can make you a smarter, kinder and more relaxed person. And the positive effects can be felt at any age.
Reading can make you smarter. 1. That was the finding of a study published in 2014. Because reading ability is something that’s learned, some experts suggest that more effort should be put in teaching reading skills to young children.
2. Great literature (文学作品) forces readers to step outside themselves to understand the characters they’re reading about. According to a study published in 2013, people who love fiction have an easier time sensing and understanding other people’s feelings.
Reading can lower stress. Feel stressed at the end of a long day? 3. A 2009 study found that reading for just 30 minutes has similar stress-reducing effects to doing 30 minutes of yoga.
Reading helps you sleep well. 4. Research has shown that using smartphones at night makes it harder for people to fall asleep and leads to poor sleep quality, but reading books, on the other hand, can have relaxing effects, making it the ideal bedtime activity.
Reading brings a family closer. Reading doesn’t have to be a solitary (单独的) activity. When parents read out loud to their children, they can pass on the benefits of reading and encourage meaningful interactions (互动). A recent study found that printed books can make the connections between caretakers and children stronger.
A.Reading makes you a kinder person.
B.Reading helps you get more information about the characters.
C.Reading a nice book is a good way to wind down.
