Some people like to get up late, but some do not. In fact, it is really good for us to get up early every day. Maybe those who don't like getting up early will not believe this, but it is true.

Scientists made a survey in about one thousand people, and then they found that early rising people had less disease than late rising people, and early rising people also looked healthier than late rising people, and so on.

So we may know early rising is helpful in more than one way. First, it helps to keep us healthy. We all need fresh air. But air is never as fresh as early in the morning. Besides, it is useful to do morning exercises.

Secondly, early rising helps us in our studies. In the morning we learn more quickly and find it easier to understand what we learn.

Thirdly, early rising can give us a plan of our work for the day. We cannot work well without a good plan.

Fourthly, early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work^ such as to wash our hands and faces and eat our breakfast.

Late risers may find it difficult to form the habit of early rising. They have to make an effort (努力）to do so. As the English proverb says, “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise•”

Teachers say buying homework answers online is not many in schools, but an interview with school students shows only 10% are willing to finish their holiday homework by themselves.

Their main complaint is that the homework is too much for them to finish.

“As far as ！ know, many of my students have to go to all kinds of training classes during the holiday. These lake away much of their time for doing homework.”

But as for the parents  who are sending their children to these training classes  they also say they've got no choice. Here's a view from a student's father.

"All the other kids in the neighborhood are learning extra things. You know parents sometimes compare their kids. I'm afraid my kid will be less successful than the others in the future."

In order to do with this situation of students copying each other's homework, some schools have even dropped the idea of holiday homework. Instead, they organize some interesting outdoor activities.

Educational experts say students love to learn through games or activities that they can be a part of‘ They suggest schools drop the current (目前的）homework format (設(shè)計)，and turn to homework that encourages kids to get involved (參與).This way, they would no longer want to copy from each other or buy answers through the Internet.

Answer the following questions according to what you read.

1.Why do students copy or buy homework answers?

2.  What do students spend much time on during the holiday?

3.Most parents want their kids to be successful, don't they?
