However, I was young once and I know that most of you get much less sleep than thatand in some cases it will influence your schoolwork.I read an interesting article in a teachers magazine recently. They did a study of 848 students in Wales. Worryingly, the results showed that teenagers are facing a new problem.

Another 15% wake up at night once a week for the same reason.One in three students are always tired and unable to study well.Students who use phones during the night are more possible to suffer from depression (抑郁) and anxiety.So switch off your phones at night.

And so I used to walk around in circle and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going toNow，Im no longer too shy to ask people for directions，but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone asks me the way somewhere，I would say，“Sorry，Im a stranger here”Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps，I realized that he had appeared the way to my office building.
