fast reading训练英语快速阅读的技巧

The average human spends 1/3 of his or her lifetime sleeping. Imagine how much people could accomplish if they spent less time sleeping. For many high school students, getting enough rest is not a priority. A National Sleep Foundation survey confirms that teens are staying up too late at night, usually getting 7 hours of sleep instead of the recommended 9 hours. Although teenagers’ internal clocks are partially to blame for not sleeping earlier, many students lose sleep because of school.

The temperature of the Sun is over 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit at the surface, but it rises to perhaps more than 16 million degrees at the center. The Sun is so much hotter than the Earth that matter can exist only as a gas, except at the core. In the core of the Sun, the pressures are so great against the gases that, despite the high temperature, there may be a solid core. However, no one really knows, since the center of the Sun can never be directly observed.

In Britain, national parks are quite different. Parks such as the Lake District, Dart Moor and Exmore include towns and villages where large numbers of people live. Much of the land in these national parks is privately owned, but there are strict controls on its use, and on the appearance of the landscape and buildings, some of which (including whole villages) are heritage items. This style of national park is well suited to the scenic areas of Britain where human influences such as houses, farms and fields are part of the beauty, and combine with natural scenery to produce an overall attractiveness.
