Is it difficult for you to get up in the morning ?  Hiroyuki’s bed will solve your problem ! Here is how it works .
The bed is connected to an alarm clock . First , the alarm clock rings . You have a few minutes to wake up . Next , a tape recorder in the bed plays soft music . The tape recorder in Hiroyuki’s bed plays a recording of his girlfriend . She whispered in a soft voice , “Wake up , darling , please .”  After minutes later , Hiroyuki hears a recording of his boss . His boss shouts , “Wake up at once , or you’ll be late !”
If you don’t get up after the second recording , a mechanical “foot” in the bed will kick you in the head . The bed waits a few more minutes . What ! You’re still in bed ! Slowly the top of the bed rises higher and higher . The foot of the bed goes lower and lower . Finally you slide off the bed and onto the floor . You are out of bed awake !
Hiroyuki’s bed is not in stores . There is only one bed--- the bed Hiroyuki made for a contest(竞赛). Maybe someday a company will make Hiroyuki’s bed and sell it in stores . Maybe people will buy millions of beds . Then Hiroyuki will be rich . If the bed makes Hiroyuki rich , he won’t need to work , and he won’t need to get up early !

During the day we work and play,and at night we sleep. Our body rests when we sleep. In the morning we are ready to work and play again. Our body grows most when we are asleep. Children who are tired usually need sleep. We can get better at our lessons after having plenty of rest. Boys and girls who are eight or nine years old need ten hours of sleep every night. Our body needs plenty of air when we are asleep. If we do not get enough fresh air, we will feel tired when we wake up. While in bed we must not cover our head,our lungs need to get enough fresh air. If we open our windows at night, we can have plenty of fresh air. Cool air is better than warm air.

This is a serious problem. We must do something to solve it. Let me tell you what people have to do to keep away from the disease.
* Do morning exercises every day.
* Open the windows in the morning.

I think these are good for our health. Do you think so?
Yours,

Emergencies (紧急情况) don’t happen very often. But when they do, you want to get help first. No one wants to spend time looking up the phone numbers.
In 1968, the United States government wanted one number that people could call for emergencies. They decided that 911 was easy to remember and people could dial it quickly. The very first 911 call was made on February 16, 1968, in Alabama. Today, 911 is used for emergencies in most parts of the United States and many parts of Canada.
Other countries may use other numbers. In Great Britain, it’s 999. If you’re not sure which emergency number is used in your area, check your phone book.

When to call
Never call 911 as a joke or just to see what might happen. The only time you should call 911 is when a person is badly hurt or in danger right now! So call when there is a fire, a car accident, or sudden sickness, etc.
When in an emergency call
When you dial the 911 operator(接线员),it’s always OK to give out your information. Speak slowly and clearly when you explain what’s happening. What happened? Where are you? Who needs help?
Don’t hang up(挂断)!
If you have to call 911, do not hang up until the operator tells you it’s OK to do so. That way, you can be sure that the operator has all the information to offer help fast.
A dog named Faith dialed 911 when her owner who was in a wheelchair fell and needed help.
She had been taught to use a speed-dial (快速拨号) function.
The emergency number 911 was first used in ________ in the USA.
A. 1958 B. 1968 C. 1978 D. 1999
Why was 911 chosen to be the emergency call?

A.Because other countries also used the number.
B.Because it was suggested by the phone company.
C.Because it was simple and easy to remember and dial.
D.Because it was also used in many parts of Canada.

People can’t call 911 when ________.

A.a bus hits a boy badly
B.a girl feels bored
C.an old lady falls off the stairs, unable to stand up
D.some people can’t get out of a burning building

Which is the right thing to do?

A.Wait for the operator’s words to end the call.
B.Tell the operator what has happened and hang up.
C.Test if your phone can get through to 911.
D.Tell the operator everything as quickly as possible.

Which is NOT true according to the passage?

A.911 is an emergency number almost throughout the United States.
B.We haven’t got a worldwide universal(通用的)emergency number yet.
C.Usually phone books list emergency call numbers.
D.The dog Faith pressed the three numbers 9-1-1.
