The Smart Schoolbag Forget to pack the books you need into your schoolbag in the morning rush
A schoolboy invented a schoolbag.① It tells you which books to pack. A small computer and a scanner(扫描装置) are fixed in the bag. As each book is put into the bag, the scanner checks it. If any book is missing, a message will be shown on the computer screen to remind you.②

What’s your favorite sleeping position On your back On your side How about standing up ① Unless you happen to be a giraffe, I’d never have thought anyone would choose the last one. But a Japanese company invented Giraffenap. Everyone can sleep while standing up.
Giraffenap was invented to allow users to take a rest while standing when they feel tired or sleepy for improving performance at work.② In an introduction to the nap(打盹) box, the company says that it will allow the users to be refreshed(恢复精神的) in just 20 minutes.
But why does it have to be standing The company illustrates that studies have shown that sleeping while standing allows people to reach a sleep state in which they breathe easily.③ When they wake up, they can feel the effect of a nap without having to sleep too much. And they can quickly return to work without feeling dizzy(头晕目眩的). Also, making the box stand upright means that it takes up half of the floor space.
Now, I know what you’re thinking—wouldn't a person just fall down if he tried to sleep while standing Of course not. Inside the box are four points to support the body—head, buttocks, legs and feet. That means he can rest his arms, legs and head in the box while still remaining upright.
Giraffenap has been made in two different styles. They’re expected to go on sale next year. So when that time comes, I hope you’ll try sleeping while standing—just like giraffes do.

Or perhaps I will be a writer and move people through words.
There are so many possibilities about my life in the future, but I know that with the pen in my hand, I will write a good future for myself. Tell me what future you will write for yourself.

My Favorite Invention
By Li Hua
There are many inventions in our daily lives, and they have an important influence on people’s lives.
_____________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________________
Ⅱ 实战演练
My favorite invention is the iPad. It was invented by a British scientist, Jonathan Ive. It is widely used by people around the world.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________________________________
But as the saying goes, every coin has two sides. On one hand, the iPad not only makes our lives convenient, but also allows us to relax in our free time. But on the other hand, it can also bring a bad influence. Many students spend hours playing games and watching videos day and night. It does harm to their study and eyes.
In a word, we should use it properly and make a plan for our time. Let’s make good use of the invention.
