The bicycle is widely used for transportation, recreation and sport. But how it came to be? Let's have a look.

In 1817, a German named Karl invented a two-wheeled machine which was the precursor to today's bicycle. It was made completely of wood with no pedals. To move forward, riders would push their feet against the ground. Unluckily, it wasn't allowed to use later because it was dangerous to people who were walking.

Then in 1864, pedals were added to the front wheel in Paris, which was an important event in the development of the bicycle. And the first official bicycle race took place in the very city in May, 1868. The new machines were popular. However, these early bicycles were clunky because of the heavy wooden structure.

"Ordinary bicycles" became popular in the 1870s. They had a very large front wheel and a much smaller back wheel. If riders had to stop suddenly, it could be dangerous. The true revolution of bicycle history arrived in 1885 when the Englishman John released his first Rover Safety Bicycle, a bicycle with two wheels of equal size and a chain system. It was similar to the modern bicycle. Around the 1900s, the production of bicycles increased. That made them available for the average person. And today, with the development of technology, shared bikes come to people's life. In China, shared bikes are very popular. The rider just needs a smart phone, scans a QR code and then the bicycle is unlocked very easy and simple. It's so convenient that it's popular among people of all ages.

The senior high school entrance examination is round the corner. Tasks and tests will keep for many of you stay up late, and you may plan to make up for the lost sleep time on weekends. Is it helpful? A recent study shows that the habit of catching up on sleep during weekends doesn't fix the damage done by lack of sleep during the week. Even worse, it may damage your health.

In the study, which was done over 10 days, 36 healthy young people were divided into three groups. The first and second groups were asked to sleep nine hours and five hours a night respectively. Members of the third group slept for five hours on weekdays, but rested as long as they wanted on weekends.

The researchers found that people who were short of sleep gained weight quickly. However, this wasn't the case with the first group. That might be due to the change of the biological clock and certain body hormones. To catch up on sleep during weekends, people in the third group would usually eat later. So, their biological clocks would be changed, which also changed the release of specific hormones." The hormone leptin decreases appetite, while the hormone ghrelin increases appetite," explained US researcher Polotsky,"Sleep deprivationcauses leptin to drop and ghrelin to rise. Therefore, when you lack sleep, you will eat more and get fatter, which may make you sad."

And even if they tried to sleep for a long time during weekends, researchers explained, it wasn't enough to meet standard sleep time because they found it difficult to fall asleep. Also, Polotsky added," short, insufficient sleep schedules will lead to an inability to change blood sugar and cause people health problems. " So the experts suggest at least seven hours of sleep each night for adults and more for kids.

Some tips for a relaxing and peaceful night:

●Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day

●Reduce long daytime naps,20 minutes advised.

●Avoid using electric products late in the evening

Mama always wanted him to learn things. Though she didn't have much education herself, she taught him all she knew-the numbers, the way to spell, how to add…

When he went blind at the age of seven, Mama found a school for the blind in St. Augustine, far from his home. Although his reaction to leaving Mama was a big fat NO, he eventually gave in. Mama knew what was best, and she get some education in one form or another. She couldn't see him growing up without knowing how to read or write. __________

During the couple of months before leaving home, he was treated the same as a normal child. Fact is, he was made to do the housework he had done when he could see, chopping wood and washing clothes, like other kids.

Neighbours gave Mama a hard time. They got on her case when they saw him helping her in the house. "I'm not always gonna be with you."

He couldn't tell how many times she must have repeated these words. Still, they didn't start meaning anything until he heard the thing at school when he was fifteen.

Itcame as a shock and kept attacking his brain. People told him he was going home, and he went. He couldn't eat; food seemed to expand in his throat; he couldn't sleep. All he could think was why Mama couldn't kiss him any more. Everyone started worrying about him.

Then a respectable woman came to see him. She knew her business, and she let him have it:

"Boy, don't you remember what your mama told you? You know the things she tried to teach you. You've been acting like a crazy boy, and, if she was here, she wouldn't stand it. Your mama spent her whole life preparing you for this day. You've got to carry on. That's what she'd want. And that's what you should do.

That did it Years later, he became a highly successful musician. His music has inspired many people, including other musicians. During his career, he received twelve Grammy Awards and his name "Ray Charles" appeared in the Rock and Roll Hal of Fame.

As Mama had expected, being blind wasn't gonna stop him anyway.
