The results came out in the Sleep Health and showed a 15 cubic centimetre difference which means 2.6 to 6.5 years of ageing.

Most people don’t take first aid (急救) training because they are busy. Some even think only doctors need to learn first aid. But in fact, everyone should learn first aid because it is helpful. Here are the advantages of learning first aid.

◆Help someone feel better
Not every accident or injury (伤害) needs treatment (治疗) in the hospital. But it doesn’t mean you should not try to help someone injured, even though the injury isn’t very serious. You can use first aid to help anyone in need, for example, a patient in great pain or a child crying because of a cold.
◆ Keep a situation from getting worse
Sometimes, if a person doesn’t receive first aid in time, his or her condition will get worse immediately. If you offer him or her basic (基础的) medical care, you will help him or her feel better and keep things from getting worse.

My winter holiday
Winter holiday is coming. In the last winter holiday, I stayed at home most of the time because of the COVID-19. I usually did some reading or watched TV. It was boring sometimes.
This winter holiday, I am going to do a lot of interesting and meaning things. First, I’m going to do my homework carefully as soon as possible. Second, I’m gong to learn English by watching English movies. What’s more, I will do some sports every day so that I can have a strong body. Last, I like traveling, so I will travel to Sanya with my parents.
