“ I hate school, and I’m not going back!” Have you ever had that thought? Lots of kids have had. Usually this feeling doesn’t last long. But what if you feel this way too much?
There are several signs showing you are stressed out. Have headaches or stomachaches is a sign of stress. Having trouble sleeping is also a sign of stress. And if you’re not getting enough sleep, you probably feel tired during the day.
Sometimes it’s a problem with your classes and schoolwork. Maybe the work is too easy and you get bored. Or maybe the work is too hard, or you don’t feel as clever as the other kids. You may be getting farther and farther behind, and feel that you will never catch up with others. Only when you know why you don’t like school, can you start taking steps to make things better.
It’s a good idea to talk to someone about your feelings about school. For example, keep a diary or just write in a notebook. It’s a great way to let out bad feelings.
Another good idea is to write down your feeling about school. For instance, keep a diary or just write in a notebook. It’s a great way to let out emotion that may be stuck inside you. And you don’t have to share（分享）what you have written with others.
The next time you find yourself disliking school, this will also help you： Make a list of everything you dislike or enjoy-even there is only one thing. See what you can change on “don’t like” list. Concentrate on what you can change and you might be able to put the good feelings back in school!

Teenagers don’t have enough money to buy expensive gifts. So what do you do if you want to give gifts to the important people in your life? In fact, you don’t have to spend a lot of money on holiday gifts. There are many cheap ways to do that. Here are some make-it-yourself gift ideas to try:
To your mom and dad:
You can decorate a photo frame, sing a song or write a letter to your mom and dad. You could also draw a picture for them if you like that better.
To you teacher:
Sometimes students put their pocket money together and buy the teacher a holiday gift. Some kids also give individual(个人) gifts. You can send a nice card with the words of thanks inside. You might even write down the favourite things you’ve learned in the teacher’s class this year. It will make the teacher feel happy.
To the kids who need a friend:
The holidays are a good time to think about people who are lonely. Maybe there is someone in your class who doesn’t seem to have many friends. Try to do something for this person. It could be giving a Christmas card or just chatting with him or her. It’s a small thing, but could mean a lot to someone who feels a little shy or sad at school.

Everyone dreams of changing the world. But can teenagers really make a difference? And how can they go about it?
Michael Norton's book 365 Ways to Change the World is a good starting point. The book gives an idea or task for every single day of the year. The tasks include offering to work at a local homeless shelter (庇护所) and planting a tree.
The book says that one simple act, no matter how small, can help someone in need. It may even influence (影响) other teens to do something.
Nathan Anthony, a student at Maple High School in Modesto, California, US, agrees. “It is impossible to get anything in life without giving something to someone or working hard at school or workplace," Anthony said.
Another Maple student, Ariane Mota, has the same idea." Giving is our way of repaying those who help us," she said." Whether it is a helping hand or a donation, we should help others to make their day or life better."
But how often do teens see peers (同龄人) helping a stranger or doing something nice for someone?
According to Anthony, not a lot. He and Mota both believe this needs to be changed.
"I help my friends by telling them that their lives are better than those poorer people," Anthony said." Humor is also a great tool."
So whether you're helping to find a cure (疗法) for bad illness or simply smiling at a stranger, do something every day to help change the world for the better.365 Ways of Changing the World is a book __________.

In the sea there are many islands. In its warm waters there are some little ones. We call them “coral Islands” (珊瑚岛).
A coral island is very nice to look at. It looks like a ring of land(一圈陆地) with trees, grass, and flowers on it. One part of the ring is open to the water. There is a little round lake inside the island.
If you look into this lake, you will see beautiful coral. You may think they are flowers. If you look at a piece of coral, you will see many little holes in it. In each of these holes a very small sea animal lives. These sea animals make the coral.
They began to build under the water. Year after year, the coral grew higher and higher. At last it grew out of the water.
Then the sea brought it small trees and something else. After some years, these things changed into earth. Sometimes the wind brought seeds(种子) to this earth. Sometimes birds flew over it and brought seeds to the island.
The little seeds grew. In a few years there were plants all over the island. In a few more years there were trees growing there.
So you see, these islands were built little by little. The workers were very small. Do they not teach us a lesson? Can you think what the lesson is?In the sea _____.

Before leaving
