Children today would rather read, do housework or even do homework than play outside--- and they get out half as much as their parents did when they were young.

So, the UK started an activity to encourage children to give up 30 minutes of screen time a day to play outdoors.
The Wild Network, born on September 25, 2013, is joined by more than 300 organizations, large or small.It tries to attract children away from television and computer screen and into woods and parks.
It is the biggest ever activity to reconnect children with nature and outdoor activities, and it plans to help improve children’s health.
Suggestions on how to get more time in nature including collecting fruits, camping, watching autumn colour on trees and so on.
This is not the first time the message of less screen, more play has been brought up.Children in the 1980s were encouraged to do the same by BBC TV show Why Don’t You, which encouraged children to “turn off your TV set, and go to do something less boring instead”.

According to a national study, in the summer of 2013, the long-term(长期的) warm weather in the UK has made the number of butterflies increase.
Around 46,000 volunteers(志愿者) took part in the year’s Big Butterfly Count(统计), and they found 830,000 butterflies.Volunteers were asked to make a record.They would record how many times they found one of 21 different kinds of butterflies.

However, scientists also said that the number of butterflies was in decline(下降) as a whole, and that we might not see the same result the next year.

Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch.They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness.Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat.However, the real reason lies in their bodies.At that time---about eight hours after you wake up, your body temperature goes down.This is what makes slow down and feel sleepy.Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day.The people in experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern(模式).They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.
In many parts of the world, people take naps(小睡) in the middle of the day.This is especially true in warmer climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon.Researchers are now saying that _____________ are good for everyone in any climate.A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general.In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from heart disease.
