I'm Jane，from America．I can not sleep well and I always wake up several times during the night．I know for a fact that there are many other people who have trouble going to sleep，too．So，I've collected some advice I've received over the past few months that have not only helped me get to sleep faster，but helped me get better night sleeps．
Have regular sleep habits
Go to bed at the same time every night．Try not to break this habit on weekends when you may be made to stay up late．Wake up at the same time every day．If you're getting enough sleep，you should wake up naturally without an alarm．
Turn off your computer
Don't play on the computer for half an hour before you decide to sleep．Studies show that it is bad for the quality of your sleep．Read a book or listen to some light music to prepare your body for sleeping．
Have a nice bedroom
A clean environment helps people to be happy and relaxed．Make sure that you have turned off all light that might come into your room，and that the temperature is comfortable．
Exercise often
Exercising will help you to fall asleep more easily，so walk out for 45 minutes every day and you will sleep better at night．But don't do it just before you go to bed﹣you won't be able to sleep!
Eat properly
Eat only a little for supper．A full stomach may make it much harder for you to sleep．

What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves？Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner，or a car full of passengers who are reading，listening to music or even sleeping．But none of them are worried about the road ahead．
Well，all of this could be the future of driving．There are several companies，including Google，working on driverless cars．So far，no Google self﹣driven car has gotten a traffic ticket，but some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them．
These cars are now still in the testing stages．But，if the tests are successful，these electric self﹣driven cars could be put into use very soon．
The cars already have many features （特点）allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations．Some features include cars being able to park themselves，or slow down when they notice objects close by．They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions．
Scientists and engineers believe，with the help of wireless （无线电的）signals，cameras and GPS，we are now at a stage where creating a safe self﹣driven car might be possible．
The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions．The self﹣driven car may be able to prevent these．However，some people do not like the idea．American lawyer Whit Drake，for example，doesn't believe these cars are safe．He thinks that technologies can also be mistakes．

There were three big fish in the lake．One of them，Demo，was wise；another one，Jimmy，was half﹣wise；Martin，the third one，was stupid．
Some fishermen came to the bank of the lake with their nets．The three fish saw them．
Demo decided at once to leave，to make the long and difficult trip to the ocean．He thought，"I won't discuss with these two about this．They love this place so much that they call it home and will stay on．How silly they are!They still haven't realized we are in great danger now．Their ignorance will cost them their lives．"
Seeing the wise fish had left，Jimmy thought，"My guide has gone and now I've lost my chance to escape．"He felt sorry for it and then thought，"What can I do to save myself from these men and their nets？Perhaps I should pretend （假装）to be already dead，giving myself totally to the water．"So he did that．He went up and down with the water，helpless，within arm's reach of the fishermen．
"Look at this!The best and biggest fish is dead．"One of the men lifted him by the tail，and threw him up on the ground．He rolled （滚动）over and over and moved secretly toward the water，and then，back in．
The third fish was aimlessly jumping about，trying to escape with his speed and cleverness．The net，of course，finally closed around him，and as he lay in the hot frying﹣pan bed，he thought，"If I get out of this，I'll never live again in the limits of the lake．Next time，the ocean!I'll make it my home．"
