When I first came to America, I lived with a local* family. In the family there were Mr. Brown and Mrs. Brown and their three little kids. Of the three kids, two went to the school close to their house and one little baby stayed at home with Mrs. Brown. I helped them do some housework for 15 hours from Monday to Friday and I got free meals and a room to live in.
One day, Mr. Brown and Mrs. Brown were busy with the new swimming pool in the garden. I was on the second floor cleaning the floor when I heard a loud call from the end of the swimming pool. I ran out of the door with the mop* still in my hand and heard Mr. Brown say, “Jane, do you have time? ” “They must need a hand,” I said to myself. Then I ran quickly to the end of the swimming pool and asked, “Mr. Brown, how can I help? ” Then Mr. Brown said, “Do you have the time?” I told him the time and started laughing at myself. I didn' t hear the word “the” and didn' t get what he said at the beginning.
Now I am meticulous about when people are saying “have time” or “have the time”. I always think for a minute before giving the right answer.

Almost all animals need to sleep to stay healthy. But sleeping can also be dangerous because other animals may hurt them when they are sleeping. So they sleep in different ways to keep themselves safe.
Almost all bats* sleep upside down. They hang up in a tree or 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* sleep underwater. They go deep in the sea to sleep for about twenty minutes at a time. Sleeping deep underwater helps them stay safe from other animals .
Horses often sleep standing up. A horse can run from danger more quickly when it is already standing. If a horse is lying down, it needs a long time to get up.
Some seabirds can sleep while they are fly. These large birds spend most of their lives over the sea. They are in danger on the water, but they are safe in the air.

A group of boys stood around a tree. “What a tall tree!” they said to each other. “It would be exciting to climb to the top!” The group of boys decided to play a game to see who could climb to the top first. Their mothers were sitting not far away, looking on at their children as they played, talking and laughing.
One of the climbers was an 8-year-old boy named David. He was the shortest child in the group. Nobody thought he would win. Then the game started. All of the boys tried their best to climb as high as they could. Although the other boys climbed faster than David at the beginning, he got to the top of the tree fastest in the end.
His mother was proud*. She asked him, “David, how did you get to the top of the tree so quickly? ” “It was easy,” David said, “The other children kept looking down as they climbed. When they found how high they were, they were afraid of falling down. I, however, looked only up. When I saw how close I was, I kept going higher and higher until I got to the top.”Mom was surprised to learn that from her son.
It is true in life like that. If we just keep going forward without looking back, we are more likely to get to our goals*. When we always look back, it may stop us going farther. Everyone is afraid of falling down and making mistakes. But when we only keep the goals in our eyes, we are unstoppable!
（ ）52. What game did the boys decide to play?
