Let's say you are taking a walk along the road and you happen to see one or two waste bottles lying on the grass beside the road． What would you do？
You may have different choices． Firstly ，you can leave the bottles there as they are． It was not you who threw them away． Why should you do something about it？ This is quite OK． Secondly， you can pick them up and throw them into a dustbin （垃圾箱）． By doing this，you have walked a step further to help make our homeclean． This action is a better choice． Thirdly， you might want to pick them up and give them to an old man or woman who collects waste for a living． If this is your choice， you have walked even further． You're not only thinking about doing something for the environment， you're also developing yourself to be a person who would think of others and help them．
As for young kids， they may always have such a question："When do I grow up？"Yes! When does a child grow up？ And how can a kid know he or she has grown up？These are interesting questions．As for us，fifteen﹣year﹣olds，who are finishing middle school， we're no longer younger children．We should know whether or not we have grown up． When we start to have a sense of offering a helping hand for a cleaner city and greener world， and when we have a loving heart to think more of others than of ourselves and are ready to help them， we can say that we have grown up．
Remember： If we help others， others will help us． If we do our best for nature， nature will offer its best to us in return !

People use languages to communicate．Any language has its ways to express people's minds．One of the ways in common is the use of idioms．An idiom is a group of words．It has a special meaning that is different from the usual meaning．For example，under the weather is an idiom meaning ill．So when people say "I'm under the weather，" they are saying that they're not feeling well． Another example， in all weathers means in all kinds of weather． So， "There are homeless people sleeping on the streets in all weathers" tells us that homeless people sleep on the streets no matter whether it is cold or hot．
Different languages may have different ways to make idioms． For people who are learning a foreign language，idioms could cause misunderstandings and bring them endless headaches． On the other hand，if things are done right， idioms can also be a fun way of looking into a new culture and understanding how the people think and talk．
Metaphor （比喻） is often used in idioms． Let's read the following two examples：
●It makes my blood boil （煮沸） when people litter．
●The night was dark and quiet； my blood ran cold when I heard a strange noise outside at dark night．
In neither situation above， our blood can reach the point so high or so low in temperature．Yet， with the situations the two sentences created， it is not difficult to work out the unhappy feelings of really angry in the first example and very afraid in the second．
Of course，not all idioms are this easy to understand．When we come to idioms of a foreign language，a good dictionary of idioms is always suggested．

| A． |

（2）If your brother breaks your computer， you can say to him， " "
| A． |
I'm under the weather |
| B． |
I'm there in all weathers |
| C． |
You've made my blood boil |
| D． |
My blood runs cold |
（3）What is the writer's advice when you come to an expression like under the weather？
| A． |
We should look it up in a good idiom dictionary． |
| B． |
We should try to express our minds with it． |
| C． |
We should find an interesting way to learn it． |
| D． |
We should create situations to guess its meaning． |

When learning is mentioned， regular school can be the first place which you can think of． However ， the Internet is changing the way students learn． Many learning apps provide rich courses for the learners to meet their levels of knowledge and interests．TED is one of them．With the Internet， learners are allowed to learn at home or anywhere else．
◆Which do you prefer： Regular School or Home School？
| Regular school helps you learn more． And you have more chances to take part in clubs and try out different kinds of courses． In class， you can discuss problems by working in groups． |
I prefer having classes online because you can spend more time learning when you're the only student in "your class"． Having cases at home may make you very independent． |
| I prefer regular school． You can have so many more friends and work with more people in groups． When I was having classes at home， I hated it． |
If you're a slow learner， you can fall behind in regular school． But if you have classes at home， you can learn well． I' m having classes at home， and I make much more progress now than when I went to regular school． |
| TED This free app is a great tool for those who are interested in public speaking It provides more than 700 talks from the world's most famous thinkers， leaders and artists． It could be the first choice for many learners to develop their speaking sill． |

◆What can you do to improve your online studies？
To successfully learn online， you can follow these steps． First of all， you should always keep in mind what you hope to complete by the end of it． Then， a study plan is needed． A good study plan includes a study calendar and a to﹣do list． Next， when having a class， be active to think about what he teacher says and express yourself． After class， remember to review what you have learned by reading your notes or making a mind map．
With the coming of 5G， the cloud classroom might not be far away． However， whatever advantages online learning has， it just offers a way of learning． It doesn't take the place of any of the ways． There must be many more ways of learning in the future． Nobody knows what will happen．
