Good morning, boys and girl. Today I’ll talk about going online.
We know that there are too many net bars around us. The Internet can make our lives interesting and enjoyable（令人愉快的）. Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer. We can learn English and read some newspapers and magazines to know more around us. It can make us clever in playing computer games. Also when we can send e-mails to our friends， they can get them at once. It can help us contact（交流） people from all over the world.
But some students spend too much time playing computer games and some stay in the net bars all day and all night. Some girls even get to have boyfriends or some boys get to have girlfriends online. They write too many letters to each other. It takes them too much time to chat online so they do worse in their lessons and they don’t study well any more. I think we mustn’t get online when it is time for us to study. We can do it in summer or winter holidays. I think we should get online with our teachers or parents.
At the same time, if we have lots of free time, we can do some activities after school. We usually have activities from 4：50 to 5：50 in the afternoon . You can play basket ball or football. We also have some interest groups in school, such as drawing, singing and dancing. We can go to the English corner on Monday afternoon. We hope we can spend more time on our subjects or on such activities that we can learn a lot from and less time on the Internet.

Bollywood： the Hollywood of India
You might be surprised to learn that India produces about 800 movies a year， and that number continues to grow. Just as the movie Capital of the United States is Hollywood， the movie capital of India is Bombay (孟买)， but it is usually called "Bollywood"， a combination(结合) of the words Bombay and Hollywood.
All Bollywood movies are thought complete with a few songs and dances. In fact， music is an important part of Bollywood movies. Even a bad movie can still do well if the music is good. Music directors are sometimes more popular than the film stars. A Bollywood movie has five to six songs with at least three songs to show what the dances mean.
Bollywood may be different from Hollywood in music， but it is very like Hollywood in several ways. If Tom Cruise can hold a gun， so can the Bollywood hero Sharukh Khan. Hollywood stars are followed by news reporters just as often as Hollywood stars. The persona! lives of actors and actresses catch the headlines(头版头条)， just as they do in the United States.
The Oscars are a very exciting time of the year for actors and actresses in America， Bollywood has its own form of the Oscars， and they are also very exciting.The name Bollywood comes from the words_______________________.

Chuck Wall teaches management and human relations at Bakersfield College. He walked into class one day and told his students that their homework was to perform one act of random(任意的) kindness. His students did not understand the homework and didn’t know what to do， but the professor would not answer their questions. He encouraged his students to work it out for themselves.
One week later， the students entered the classroom excited to share their stories. One student told of giving away blankets to the homeless. Another reported on helping a dog to find its owner， and another student had been trying to find a long， lost friend. Students were energized (给予活力) by the homework assignment and wanted other people to be kind too. With the support of local businesses， the students made stickers to put on cars that invited people to do something kind for others. They sold the stickers and decided to donate the money to a center for the blind。
Since then， similar kindness activities have been started in schools around the world. Many schools organize a Random Acts of Kindness Week， around November 13th， to celebrate World Kindness Day. Some schools use each day of Random Acts of Kindness Week to perform a different kind act， such as making a new friend， helping someone， doing community service， or raising money for a charity. Students learn to consider other people and thank about how small actions can make the world a better place. The professor’s homework was to ask his students _________.
