Wouldn't it be funny if your mom said to you，“It's time for bed，honey．It's almost November!” Well，if you were a baby，your mother would be getting you ready to go into a deep sleep around October．
Bears in cold places go into hibernation to survive the winter．By taking this long sleep，they can get through the cold and snowy months when the food，like berries and nuts，can not be found easily．
Have you ever heard someone say that they are as hungry as a bear? Bears need to eat a lot of food before hibernation．They eat so much that they may put on forty pounds of fat in a week．During the winter，bears will live off the fat stored in their bodies．Their bodies use a lot less energy during hibernation．That if because their hearts slow down．Their breathing slows down，too．Their bodies don't grow and their body temperature drops．
If you were going to sleep all winter，wouldn't you want to be in a safe and protected place? That is what a bear wants，so it looks for a cave or a hollow（空心的）tree．It also makes a bed using grass and leaves．The bear may start to hibernate as early as October and might mot wake up until April or May，when the weather is warm again．
When the bear wakes up，it will have lost much of his fat，but spring will bring a fresh supply of berries and nuts to enjoy until it is time to hibernate again in the fall．

If you discover that you have problems getting along with your classmates or friends，the most important thing to is tolerance（寬容）．Tolerance is the ability（能力）to realize and respect（尊重）the differences in others．We can not change the way that other people do，so it is important to learn to live happily with them．
Tolerance will make everyone get better with each other．Getting to know someone may help you understand why they do things differently．Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad．Tolerance teaches us to keep an even temper and open mind．
You need remember an old saying，“Treat others how you want to be treated．” You would like to be treated kindly by your classmates，so it is important to treat them kindly too．If you tolerate（寬容）something，it does not mean that you have to like it．No one is asking you to change who you are．To believe in tolerance just means that you should respect the difference in others and not try to make them change．
It is important to practice tolerance，because it will make everyone's lives easier．Learn to accept（接受）people for their different abilities and interests．The world is very different，and practicing tolerance m your own school and city can help make a difference．
