1.Thousands of new words are invented each year.Most of these come from science.When scientists discover something new,if they do not have a word for their discovery,they make one up.Words are often made up by big companies for their new products.If a product becomes popular,then everyone will know both the product and the new word.Other companies quickly make similar products,but they can not use similar words.It is against the law to copy other people's ideas or inventions.We have all listened to a Walkman,haven't we?Maybe not!The company which developed this product,Sony,owns the word "Walkman." And no other company can print it on the tape machines.The word "Coke" is also owned by a company.It is the name of a soft drink made by the Coca Cola company.But most people use the word generally for any soft drink.The word "Frisbee" is owned by a company,too.However,it has become a general word for all similar products.There are "Frisbees" and there are Frisbees,but only one company makes Frisbees.It may be hard for a new word to become popular,but it is easy to make one up.You can try yourself!
2.A new school term begins,Is anything new at your school?Sichuan students are getting an extra
hour to sleep in the morning.This year,Sichuan schools decided that students should start classes later.This should help them feel less tired,For Junior high schools,the first classes wil begin no earlier than 8:30 am.The changes have made students happy.Liu Xian,15,said his class was excted by the news on the first day of school.“It’s so good we can get up later!”said Liu.Liu studies in Chengdu No.4 Middle School.He used to get up at 6:40 am.Now he can get up at 7:40 am because class doesn’t start until 8:40 am.Wu Hongli,15,said the new timetable is good for her health.“I used to drink coffee every night or I would feel to sleepy to finish my homework,”said Wu.“Now I can finish it without coffee.”She used to get up at 6:30 am.Now she can get up at 7:30 am.Wu Hongli’s mother was happy,too.She thought more sleep would help her daughter grow taller.But some parents worried that more sleep would mean less learning.There used to be five classes in the morning.Now there are only four.Many teachers,though,say the changes will help students learn better.“Students used to doze
for the first two classes in the morning,”said Wu Zongping,an English teacher at Chendu No.12 Middle School.“But now they look fine and they learn much better than before.”
