This year, Sichuan schools decide to start morning classes an hour later．This will help students feel less tired．And most junior high schools will begin the first class at about 8：30 a．m．

The students are happy about the change．

Liu Ming told us that his classes were excited by the news on the first day of school．”Great! From now on, we students at Chengdu No．4 Middle School don’t have to get up so early!” Liu said that he used to get up at 6：40 a．m．Now he can get up at 7：40 a．m, because class doesn’t start until 8：40 a．m．

Wu Hongli feel the same．She said the new timetable was good for her health．”I used to get up at 6：30 a．m．I had to drink coffee every night, or I would feel too sleepy to finish my homework．” said Wu．”Now I can finish it without coffee because I can sleep a little longer．”

       Many teachers say the change will help students learn better．”Students used to doze（瞌睡）for the first two classed in the morning．” said Huang Shan, an English teacher at Chengdu No．12 Middle School．”But now they are active in class and learn much better than before．

       But some parents are worried that more sleep will mean less learning．There used to be live classes in the morning．Now there are only four．

       In fact, every coin has two sides．So does that change in the school timetable?

Spaceship One is a 6-meter-long white spaceship．On June 21．American pilot Mike Melville flew it to space and back-about 100 kilometers up into the sky．(1) Some might say it’s not a big deal．Yow know, people went to the moon years ago．

Well, Spaceship One is special because (2) it is the first spaceship that wasn’t made by the government．It was built and launched(发射) by a private (私人) US company．Lots of people want to travel in space．But it’s too expensive．American millionaire Dennis Tito paid almost US $20 million to become the first space tourist to visit the International Station in 2001．So private companies began to think of making their own spaceship to take other tourists up into space．

(3)飞船一号的成功是一个好的开端。In the next 10 to 15 years, if you pay $20,000 to $100,000, you could fly high above the earth．

What about having your own spaceship in your garage(车库) and taking into space at the weekend?

82．将(2)处划线部分的句子改为简单句：
