Mobile phones are everywhere in big cities. It seems that can live without one. Mobile phones are a great to stay connected with friends and family. , it is important to remember that there are certain times you should not be using your phone, especially as a student, during school.
you are in class, you should not be sending your friends text messages taking phone calls. Your classmates and teacher should not have to deal with this rude . Aren’t you at school to learn?
In the United States, students would never be allowed to their mobile phones during class. If you were to send or a text message you would probably be kicked class. It is very disturbing to hear a lot of tones and ringing during . There are many more rules for mobile phone use in America and it is to respect for those around you.
As a teacher in China, I have to students using mobile phones every day. I have told my class to their phones, but many students do not listen. The to be connected all the time seems to be more than the desire to learn.
It’s easy to understand it is so tempting(诱惑人的) to have your phone on during class. It seems so easy just to send a short text message; it’s not hurting anyone, is it? But you may actually be hurting when you do this. Your teacher knows when you use your phone and may give you a grade. Sending a text message also takes your attention away from what’s going on in class, you may something important.

People think children should play sports. Sports are fun, and children keep healthy while playing with others. However, playing sports can have 1 effects on children. It may produce feelings of poor self-respect or aggressive behavior in some children. According to research on kids and sports,40,000,000 kids play sports in the US. Of these,18,000,000 say they have been 2 at or called names while playing sports. This leaves many children with a bad 3 of sports. They think sports are just too aggressive.
Many researchers believe adults, especially parents and coaches, are the main 4 of too much aggression in children’s sports. They believe children 5 aggressive adult behavior. This behavior is then further strengthened through both positive and negative feedback. Parents and coaches are powerful teachers because children usually look up to them. Often these adults behave aggressively themselves, sending children the message that 6 is everything. Many parents go to children’s sporting events and shout 7 at other players or cheer when their child behaves 8 . As well, children are even taught that hurting other players is 9 or are pushed to continue playing even when they are injured. 10 ,the media makes violence seem exciting. Children watch adult sports games and see violent behavior replayed over and over on television.
As a society, we really need to 11 this problem and do something about it. Parents and coaches 12 should act as better examples for children. They also need to teach children better 13 . They should not just cheer when children win or act aggressively. They should teach children to 14 themselves whether they win or not. Besides, children should not be allowed to continue to play when they are injured. If adults allow children to play when injured, this gives the message that 15 is not as important as winning.

If we 45 , we’ll get nothing; we would have spent money 46 .If we don’t give up, what we’ve got is something to cause suffering or pain, or 47 disaster. Since that’s the case, why are we still unwilling to 48 with it? The only 49 _ is: it means money.
Then what 50 __does money contain? Its importance lies in none 51 __the following two aspects: (1) it can be used for our living;(2) it can be used for daily life. When a sum of money that should be able to obtain joy or enjoyment is certain to 52 the purpose, isn’t it wise to give it up? Isn’t it a sort of 53 for money-spending or even for enjoying ourselves?
To abandon and forget a sum of money that is to be of no value or to produce 54 values can be counted as 55 value of money. Isn’t it so?

I will never forget the year I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not be _34_ Christmas gifts because there was not enough money. I felt sad and thought, “What would I say when the other kids asked what I’d 35 ?” Just when I started to 36 that there would not be a Christmas that year, three women 37 at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll. I felt such a sense of 38 that I would no longer have to be embarrassed(尴尬) when I returned

Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my 41 Christmas there special and memorable, I 42 remembered the women’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of 43 for as many

The 51 in the room was obvious, and 52 wasn’t just about toys. It was a feeling –the feeling I knew 53 that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn’t forgotten. Somebody thought of me. I matter.
