Dogs can be good helpers to humans and what about monkeys？ They can do a great job，too． Monkeys can help disabled （有残疾的） people live a better life just as dogs do．
Like dogs，monkeys need lots of training to be human helpers． One difference is that monkeys live larger than does do． This means that a monkey's " childhood" is also longer than a dog's．So it may take them four to six years before they are ready to begin training．It's said that it is almost as much work a raising a young child!
After monkeys begin training，they usually take about a year to learn enough tasks to be good helper． One important thing that they need to learn is how to follow commands（命令）．
For example， if a person wants to have the lights turned on， he or she might give the command "sun"．As the monkeys get better at completing their tasks，they learn new and more difficult ones． Some monkeys can even learn how to use a computer!

I remember the green coat in my fifth and sixth grades．
When I needed a new jacket，my mother asked what kind I wanted．I described something like bikers wear．She listend long．I thought she understood for sure the kind I wanted．
The next day when I got home from school．I diacovered，on my bed，a jacket which was not what I had expected，I wear close to the jacked slowly，as if it were a stranger．
From the kitchen mother shouted that my jacket was in the closet，I rushed and pulled at the closthes inthe closet，hoping that jacket on the bed wasn't for me but my brother．No luck，Iwant to cry because it was so ugly and so big．But I knew I'd have to wear it a long time before I'have a new one．I looked at the jacket，like an enemy，thinking bad things before I took off my old and small jacket．
I put the big jacked on．I stood in front of the mirror（镜子），turning right and left．I looked ugly．
I threw it on my brother's bed and look at it for a long time before I put it on and went out，smiling a"thank you"to my mom．
The next day I wore it to school．At the morning break，my best friend．Steve，look at me for a long time．The girls turned away to shisper．The teachers looked my way and talked about how foolish I looked in my new jacket．When it was time for the whole school to get together on the playground，﹣﹣．Although they didn't say out loud，"Man，that's ugly，"I heard there talk and even laughter．
And so I went，in my jacket．So embarrassed，so hurt，I couldn't even do my lessons the rest of the day．I received Cs on tests．
I wore that thing for three years．All in those year no love came to you．
I blamed（指责）that jacket for those bad years．I blamed my mother for her bad taste and her cheap ways．It was a sad time for the heart．Anyway，I spent my﹣sixth grade year，looking forward to something good to happen to me．
And it was about that time I began to grow，still in that green ugly jacket，which had become my brother who went along wherever I went．

Almost all animals need to sleep to stay healthy．But sleeping can also be dangerous because other animals may hurt those who are sleeping．This leads to many different ways of sleeping that help them stay safe．Some of these ways may surprise you!
Almost all bats sleep upside down．They hang from a branch of a tree or the ceiling of a cave．Up high，bats are safe from most other animals．If they are in danger，they just fly away．
A dolphin sleeps with just half its brain at a time．It must stay awake to breathe and to watch for danger．Dolphin mothers and babies can go without sleep for as long as two months to stay safe．
Some ducks sleep with just half their brains，too．These ducks often sleep in a line．The ducks at both ends help to keep the group safe．They keep one eye open to watch for danger．The ducks in the middle sleep deeply with both eyes closed．
Seals breathe air，but that doesn't stop some of them from sleeping underwater．They hold their breath and dive deep to sleep for up to twenty minutes at a time．Sleeping deep underwater helps these seals stay safe from animals that hurt them near the surface．
Horses often sleep standing up．Their legs lock in please so they don't fall over．If a horse is lying down，it needs a long time to get up．A horse can run from danger more quickly if it is already standing．
A flamingo can sleep while standing on one leg．The standing leg locks so it stays straight．The other leg remains close to the flamingo's body．Its head rests on its back．A flamingo lives （and sleeps）near many other birds to stay safe．
Some seabirds can sleep while they fly．These large birds spend most of their lives over the ocean．They are in danger on the water，but they are safe in the air．They fly for many hours without flapping（拍打）their wings．Sometimes they sleep while they are flying．

Is it possible to put millions of years of the world's history into one building？The British Museum seems to think so．
"A history of the World in 100 Objects"，an exhibition about rare and ancient object from the world，has made it a success．
The British Museum says it owns at least 8 million historical objects．But why choose these 100 objects to tell stories of our world's history？
It all started with a challenge（挑战）．
Neil MacGregor，who was once director of the British Museum，was asked by BBC to choose 100 objects from the museum's huge collection day．
MacGregor accepted，and took four years to choose each object himself．
In 2010，MacGregor appeared on BBC radio，giving a detailed（详细的）explanation of each object．The show was a big hit and all these 100 objects were shown in the British Museum．A book with photos of each object soon followed．
"The objects had to cover the whole world，from a cooking pot to a golden galleon，from a Stone Age
tool to a credit card．"MacGregor wrote．
The collection includes many important objects from China．There is a banknote from the Ming Dynasty，showing China as the first country to use paper money．
But it's not just ancient things that are shown．Among them are some modern things like a solar﹣powered lamp and even a throne made of weapons created by an African artist．
"Of course，the collection could only be'a'history of the world． But it is still a history that people in the present world need to know．"MacGregor wrote．
