GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver．It looks like a mobile phone．You can hold it in your hand, or put in your pocket．It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone．We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats．Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are．For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.

There are three parts to the Global Positioning System．The first part is the receiver．You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc．The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth．The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates （計算） its position．The third part of the system is a network of ground stations．They are all over the world．They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.

Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile．They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate （精確的）．There are also new uses for the GPS．Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.

There are many questions about dreams. We dream during the REM (快速眼動) stage of sleep. We have about five periods of REM sleep during the night. The first REM cycle (周期) lasts about 10 minutes. As the night goes on, the REM cycle gets longer. By early morning, the REM cycle can last up to 90 minutes. Usually, it is in this last REM cycle that we remember our dreams.

Dreams change as people age. People may have several dreams each night. Some are like films and usually in color. They come to us over and over again. That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something and trying to find the answer. Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream. But often we can’t remember the dreams clearly.

It is reported that too much dreaming is bad for our health. The more we sleep, the longer we dream. The mind is hard at work. That is why we may have a long sleep and still feel tired when we wake up.

Do you feel a little sleepy after lunch? Well, that’s normal. Your body naturally slows down then. What should you do about it? Don’t drink coffee, take anap, instead. There are many advantages of a daily nap. First of all, you can remember things better and make fewer mistakes. Also, you can learn things more easily after taking a nap. A 20-minute nap can reduce your pressure. Finally, a nap can make you cheerful.

But, there are some simple rules you should follow about taking a nap. First, take a nap at noon, about eight hours after you wake up. In general, a 20-minute nap is the best. If you sleep longer, you may fall into a deep sleep. After waking up, you will feel worse. Also, you should set an alarm clock. That way, you can fully relax during the nap. You don’t have to keep looking at the clock so that you don’t oversleep. Now, next time you feel sleepy after lunch, don’t get stressed. Put your head down, close your eyes and take a nap.

One dad didn’t know how to do his daughter’s hair, so some people tried to help him. Another one couldn’t cook. When he stayed with his son for three days in the desert, they only ate instant noodles(方便面).

Along the way we see the kids and their dads having fun, but we also see tearful moments and uncomfortable moments as the dads try to get on with their children. The show provides an interesting view on modern family life.

Why is Where Are We Going, Dad? so popular? Because it is about how Chinese parents look after their kids. “The show makes modern parents think about what they should do with their kids. In traditional Chinese culture, the father is strict and the mother is kind. But on the show, we see fathers who are much more gentle on their kids and they can listen to their children carefully. Fathers also teach their children skills and encourage them to try new things. They also give them a sense of safety.”said Li Minyi, a professor of early childhood education.

In the past, children were taught to obey their parents’ wishes and look after them in their old age. But today Chinese parents increasingly realize that respecting(尊重) their children’s choices may be a better way to get them ready for modern society.
