“This is the third time that you have been late , Julia . Why?”Mr. Malone stopped Julia as she walked by his desk. Julia explained , “I’m sorry . I was cleaning the tables in the science room . Someone spilled(洒)the chemical , so cleaning took me longer than usual . ”
Mr. Malone replied . “I’ve talked to you about your lateness . I am afraid you won’t be able to go with us in the field trip .”“But…” Julia cried . Mr. Malone stopped her . “Unless your parent comes in to discuss this with headmaster and me , you won’t be attending . ”
After dinner , Julia found the courage to talk to her dad . She told about the messy science tables and how her science teacher would deduct(减去)points from their daily grades if they did not clean up . Her friends’ next class was on the opposite side of the building . Since her class was nearby , Julia volunteered to help clean up so that her friends would not be late . Then she explained how this would prevent her from attending the school trip . Her dad watched her for several seconds . Finally , he simply said , “I’ll be there right after school .”
The next day after school , Julia walked to the office . Her father and Mr. Malone were already there . Mrs. Thompson , the headmaster , spoke , “Julia , why were you cleaning the science tables alone ?”
Julia answered slowly ,“I guess no one wants to clean up , and I don’t want my friends to get into trouble . ”“But you got yourself in trouble . ”Mrs. Thompson said . Julia nodded . Julia’s dad continued , “You’re still responsible for breaking the rules ; even if it was for a good reason . Do you have any ideas for a punishment ? ” Julia shook her head hopelessly .
“Normally , your lateness would prevent you from attending some school activities . However , I have considered the reason and will allow you to go on the trip . ”Mrs. Thompson said . Julia jumped out of her seat , repeating , “Thank you , thank you , thank you ! ”“Don’t be too excited . You’ll have a one-day detention (课后留校) for each lateness . ”Mrs. Thompson warned , “I hope you won’t be late again . ”
“No , madam , I won’t .” Julia replied , smiling from ear to ear .

Sometimes we wish that we could have more time. The good news is that this year will be longer than the previous! Although don’t get excited just yet, because if you blink (眨眼), you may just miss it. That’s because 2015 will be one second longer than 2014 -also known as a leap second (闰秒). And surprisingly, they are pretty common. But why do we need them?
Over the centuries, Earth has been slowing down. This means that we must keep changing our clocks to keep in step with Earth’s time. We’ve all heard of leap years. Our calendars hold 365 days in a year. Yet Earth takes slightly longer to orbit the sun. So we save this time and every 4 years we have an extra day in February.
As for the leap seconds, the International Earth Rotation Service (IERS) manages the global time, known as the atomic time(原子钟时间). This is the timekeeping that’s used for every single country.
To keep up with Earth’s time, they add a second every now and then. They’ve been doing this since 1972. And this year will be the 26th second they’ve added!
It’ll be added just before 8:00 a.m. on July 1 Beijing time. So you will see 7:59:60 on July 1.
Although adding a second sounds harmless, it can have negative effects. In 2012 when a leap second was added, it caused problems for companies like social networking sites Reddit and LinkedIn. As they weren’t prepared for the change, it caused their computers to record errors.
1.Why does a leap second have to be added in some years?
A. Because this year is shorter than the previous one. B. Because we need to have more time.
C. Because the Earth is slowing down. D. Because it can help make a leap year.
2.In a leap year, there is an extra day in_____.
A. January B. February C. March D. December
3.In order to keep up with Earth’s time, how many seconds have been added until last year?
A. 43 B. 42 C. 26 D. 25
4.What’s the negative effect of adding a leap second?
A. It makes the day longer than the previous one. B. It causes some recording errors for companies.
C. It makes people stay up late. D. It does harm to people’s health.
