Early rising is helpful in more than one way。 First, it helps us to have good health。 We all need fresh air. It makes our health better to take morning exercises. The air is never so fresh as early in the morning。 Early rising helps us in our studies。 In the morning we learn more quickly and find it easy to learn something by heart。 Early rising makes people able to plan the work for the day。 We can't work well without a good plan. Just as the plan for the year should be made in the spring， the plan for a day should be made in the morning. Early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work, such as to wash our hands and eat our breakfast。 So the popular saying says， “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy（富有的） and wise.”
( ）51. What does “early rising” mean？It means _______ early in the morning。
A. waking up B。 getting up C. having breakfast D。 making a day's plan
( ）52. Why does the passage advise us to take exercises early in the morning?
A. Because we can save much time.
B。 Because we are not busy in the morning。

The word “day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year， we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night， we are using “day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night。 A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning（旋转）of the earth. At the equator（赤道）day and night are sometimes the same length。 They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o’clock in the morning and sets at 6 o’clock in the evening。 For six months the North Pole is tilted（倾斜）toward the sun。 In those months the Northern Hemisphere(半球）gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights。 South of the equator nights are longer than days。 For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights。 North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights。 Summer is the season of long days。
（ )54。 A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by ______ of the earth。
A。 the pushing B。 the pulling C。 the spinning D。 the passing
( ）55。 At the equator day is as long as night ________。
A。 sometimes B。 never C。 usually D。 always
( ）56。 When the North Pole is tilted toward the sun， the Northern Hemisphere gets ______ sunlight。
