    Early to bed, early to rise

    Last week, I have been trying to change my routines. Usually, I went to bed very late, sometimes may be 2 o'clock in the morning. Last week, I talked about it with a doctor, he said my routine is very harmful, and I should sleep earlier, the best time for sleep is not later than 11 o'clock in the night when the hematopoietic stem cells(HSCs) start to work. So I tried to change my routines, and in the first day, I cannot fall in sleep at that early of a time, because in myusual time, I was playing my Ipad. The first morning of getting up earlier is also very hard, because I got up an hour earlier than usual time. Fortunately, I stuck to it, and now I feel very tired when it comes to 11 O'clock, and I will be awake at 7 o'clock in the morning. I think it is good for my health.

    Medical treatments left pensioner homeless

    In April I went to the local nursing home to visit Mrs. Huang, who was 71 and lived there alone. Staring out of window, she quietly told me her story:
    'Two years before I lived alone in my own house. My son went married 16 years ago and was living with his wife in their own apartment. Both of them had stable jobs, so we lived an ordinary life. They even planned to move to a bigger house as they have saved enough money.'
    'But one day things changed: My son was diagnosed with Leukemia. Upon hearing the news, I was totally shocked. I just stood there and didn't know what to do.
    The doctor told us that with proper treatments including chemical therapy(chemotherapy) and bone marrow transplantation could probably extend my son's life for up to 10 years. If on the contrary we take no actions, he will suffer great pain and eventually die in 6 months.'
    'Cost of these treatments plus other fees sums up to 500,000¥. We didn't have that much money, so I had to sell my house to pay for that. Being told this decision, my son secretly asked me: 'Mom, dont sell your house. There is no meaning doing that, if I can only spend 10 years lying on bed and doing nothing. That doesn't help our family anyway. Actually, it's a waste of money.'
    'But I resisted. As a mother, my son is everything for me. 500,000¥ is a large amount of money, but it is worth it, even if it can only prolong his life for 10 years. So I sold my house to pay for his treatments, and chose to live in this nursing home with my pension.'
    'Paying for the treatments made me homeless. Now I have no deposit, no house, literally nothing, and Im suffering here. But I'm willing, because I love my son. I'm not living for a long time, but he has 10 years or more.'

    Letter to a friend. Exam practice

    Hi Vivian!

    I love music, for this reason, I know a lot of about your question. It depends on what you like. I love jazz music and rock music, and I'm in luck because there are many places with live music. I like to go to a lot to one café where people who are just beginning to sing, can go to sing. It’s really good.

    My city is famous for having different places to do concerts and music festival. All summer we have a big electronic music festival. Also, in the autumn there are pop concerts in the city centre.

    Mainly I like rock, pop and jazz. But I like all music if it’s good.

    Best wishes!
    Frank.
