In China, more and more middle school students are getting shorter sleeping time than before. Most students sleep less than nine hours every night, because they have much homework to do. Some homework is given(被给出) by their teachers, and some by their parents. Also, some students don't know how to save time. They are not careful enough while they do their homework, so it takes them a lot of time. Some students spend too much time watching TV or playing computer games. They stay up (熬夜) very late. Some students have to get up early every morning on weekdays to go to school on time by bus or by bike. It can be a long way from home to school.

Schools and parents should cut down (减少)some of the homework so that our children can enjoy more than nine hours of sleep every night for their health.

A pop singer has to work very hard to become popular. He must give the public what they really want and need, or he must find a new way of singing that will attract their attention. Even when he has succeeded and his records are sold everywhere, he can not relax. Then he must work harder than ever to remain popular, because there are always younger singers trying to become famous and to steal some of the popularity.

The life of a successful pop singer isn’t easy at all. He can only relax when he is alone, because everything he does is watched and reported in the special newspaper written for the fans. The fans are the most important people in the world for the singer. They buy his records, they go to his concert, and they make him rich and famous. But they can be very dangerous, too. Sometimes they do anything to get a souvenir（纪念品）. They steal handkerchiefs, they tear off buttons, and they even cut off pieces of the unfortunate singer’s hair. Many singers have been forced to ride（即兴表演）. A pop singer has to pay a lot of money for clothes because he must always look smart and different. And what’s more, he must always keep smiling.
