Experts say that students usually need eight to ten hours' sleep at night, but most Chinese students do not get enough sleep. Some Chinese parents are usually glad to see their children study late. They will think their children work very hard. But not all parents are happy about this. Once a mother told us that every morning her 10-year-old boy put up one finger with his eyes still closed, begging for one more minute to sleep. Like thousands of students " early birds " in China, he has to get up before six every morning.

There are many important rules which can keep us safe in our daily life.

In a fire

Escaping (逃) from a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save your life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family. For example, you can use stairways(樓梯), roofs and fire escapes, but no lifts. From the lower floors of buildings, to escape through windows is possible. The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. It is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building. Windows are also useful while you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed, before opening the window. Otherwise（否則）, smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low next to the window to be sure you get fresh air.

In earthquakes

Here are some tips on how to stay safe in earthquakes. Get under a desk or table, or stand in a corner or under a doorway. Cover your head and neck with your arms. Stay in your seat if in a cinema or a theater. Get below the level of the back of the sea and cover your head and neck with your arms. Try to stay away from kitchens, where there are often many objects that might fall or get hurt.

Traffic rules

It is necessary for all to keep the traffic rules in mind and obey（遵守） them strictly. When one crosses the street, he should take the crosswalk. Keep riding on the right side of the road. When the red light is on, please stop and wait until the green light is on. It is important to let the children know that playing on the road is very dangerous.

A group of swans（天鵝）flew down to a beach where a crow（公雞） was jumping around. The crow watched them with disdain(鄙視).

“You have no flying skills at all!” He said to the swans, “All you can do is to move your wings. Can you turn over in the air? No, that’s beyond you. Let’s have a flying competition. I’ll show you what real flying is!”

One of the swans, a strong young male, accepted the challenge. The crow flew up and began to show his skills. He flew in circles, performed other flying tricks, and then came down and looked proudly at the swan.

Now it was the swan’s turn. He flew up, and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all kinds of comments about his flying. They flew on and on till they couldn’t see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments. He was now so exhausted that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to struggle(努力)to keep himself from falling into the water.

The swan pretended not to notice, and said, “Why do you keep touching the water，brother？

Is that another trick?”

“No,” said the crow. He knew he had lost the competition, “I’m in trouble because of my pride! If you don’t help me, I’ll lose my life…”

The swan took pity on him, and took him on his shoulders and flew back to the beach.
