Dear Sir/Madam，
①It is now common to go online in the home， yet a recent survey showed that ninety﹣five percent of parents do not know what websites their children visit． I strongly believe that a training project should be started to help parents to improve their Internet and computer skills so that they can better monitor and guide their children．
②One advantage of providing training is that it would get parents to pay more attention to their children's online activities． If they had a better understanding of the Internet， they would see the need to make sure that their children use it properly and responsibly．
③Another argument for providing training to parents is that it would allow parents to help their children with their schoolwork．These days， a lot of homework needs to be done on computers． If parents have poor computer skills， they will be of little or no help with homework， which can make them upset．Some people argue that it is good that students can work independently on computers． However， it is clear that students， especially young students， often need this kind of home support．
④Improving parents' Internet and computer skills might also be a good way or parents to improve their relationships with their children．These days，children spend a lot of their free time on computers．If parents want to be part of that free time，they need to see that playing on computers can be a fun family activity．Joining their children can help parents bridge the generation gap（代沟） between them and their children．
⑤I strongly believe that children need to be helped and guided to use the Internet in a proper and responsible way， and so training is extremely important．
Yours faithfully．
Pat Chan

Dear Mr．Hunt，
My problem is that I can't get on with my family． Relations between my parents have become difficult． They fight a lot， and I really don't like it． It's the only communication they have． I dont know if I should say anything to them about this． When they argue， it's like a big， black cloud hanging over our home． Also，my elder brother is not very nice to me． He always refuses to let me watch my favorite TV show． Instead he watches whatever he wants until late at night． I don't think this is fair， At home I always feel lonely and nervous． Is that normal？ What can I do？
Sad and Thirteen
Dear Sad and Thirteen，
It's not easy being your age， and it's nor these feelings． Why don't you talk about these feelings with your family？ If your parents are having problems， you should offer to help． Maybe you could do more jobs around the house so that they have more time for proper communication． Secondly， why don't you sit down and communicate with your brother？ You should explain that you don't mind him watching TV all the time． However，he should let you watch your favorite show， I hope things will be better for you soon．

Mark Twain once said，"Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today．" The famous writer talked about a problem many of us have． The problem is procrastination （拖延症）． When procrastination becomes a habit， it can make our lives terrible． However， everyone can avoid it by taking a few simple steps today!
✧Make daily "to do" lists．
Before your day ends， make a plan for tomorrow．List upcoming tasks in order of importance．You'll begin each new day with a head start， already knowing what needs to be done．As you complete each task， check it off．（1） ．
Always keep your daily schedule（计划）with you． Use it to remind yourself what you need to do next． You'll then have a much better chance of carrying out your plans．
✧Break large tasks up into small ones．
If a project looks too big，（2） ．The task at hand may seem too great．You may feel defeated （挫败） before beginning． But every project is doable if it's done in small steps．
Begin by breaking up your task into smaller parts． This helps remove the unnecessary fear of having to do a large project all at one time．
✧（3） ．
If your workplace is full of distractions（使人分心的事），you'll need to make some changes．You may need to remove your phone or TV from your workplace．If people often stop by for a talk， you may need to move to a different place．
✧Follow the five﹣minute rule．
The hardest part about any task is getting started． That's why so many people avoid their work until the last minute． Doing so usually leads to added stress． One solution to this problem is to schedule a time daily to work on your big project． Work on it for only five minutes． Then decide whether or not to continue． Surprisingly， once you've begun， （4） ．
A． you will certainly succeed at once B． Change your working environment C． This will give you a sense of success D． it can discourage you from getting started E． you may be able to keep going and finish the task |
For as long as we can remember，one of the most popular ways parents use to punish their children has been the "time out".
It seems that it is a good idea：the child sits on his own to reflect（反思）on what he has done.Then，when the time is up，he will apologize and learn from the mistake.
However，just because it's something that's been done for years，that doesn't mean it is the right thing to do.In fact，very often，children don't sit nicely and think about what they've done.Instead，they need to be told a few （or many）times to go back to their places and stay quiet.They're not reflecting on why they are in the "time out" at all.More likely than not，they're probably just really angry，and 'so' are the parents.In the end，both the parents and the children make each other unhappy，or even angry.
What can parents do to change this situation？You may have already heard of things like peaceful parenting（育儿）and gentle parenting.These focus on the relationship between parent and child through building trust and love.So，instead of starting a "time out"，try something called "time in".A "time in" needs both parent and child to stay close until both get calm.After that，the parent，and child can discuss what happened and solve the problem together.If the child can make changes，everyone can then move on.
As we all know，punishment and violence（暴力）seldom work and will never teach the.children what the right way to act is.A "time in" can be the great time for the children to learn through mistakes，Kids learn how to build their emotional and social skills through difficult situations.So，instead of punishing them for acting their age，we can use chances to teach and guide them to a place of learning.
A "time in" may take more time，but it does work.

| A． |
stay outside |

is becoming more popular |

takes too much time |

| B． |
parents try something called "time in" instead of "time out" |
| C． |
the child say sorry to his or her parents and learn from mistakes |

Time Management
Do you ever wish you had more time？ Everyone gets the same amount of time each day， But here are some ways to use those hours better．As a popular saying says， "Work smarter，not harder．"
The most important way to manage your time is to set priorities（优先权）（1） Also，consider whether or not they are urgent﹣if they need to be done right away．It can be easy to forget important tasks that aren't urgent， so make time for them．
Decide ahead of time what you're going to do at certain times each day．Schedule times not only to meet people but also to do things alone． Then you can make sure every thing gets done．
（2） Are you smarter in the morning，afternoon or evening？ Schedule difficult tasks for times you feel good，saving easy ones for when you're tired．
Write down what you need to do and when．I keep two to﹣do lists： one for the present tasks and one for larger projects I'm working on．（3） And I don't get discouraged by looking at a long list of items I can't finish． I focus on the shorter list of each days tasks．
（4） When someone wants to give you a task，think carefully．Is it really important enough to spend your precious（ 宝贵的） time on？ Could someone else do it instead？
（5） If you're in charge of running a meeting，keep it short．Reading articles or talking to friends online can also use up much of your time．Don't allow it．
In the end，using time well is about making a good plan and sticking to it．
A．Think about the time of day you work best．
B．That way I can make sure I don't forget anything．
C．Figure out （弄明白） which of your tasks is the most important．
D．Often，managing time means saying no to things that aren't so important．
E．Meetings also tend to be a waste of time， so avoid them whenever possible．

Students at a primary school in Fuzhou，Hast China's Fujian Province were required to clean the school toilets to help them develop good habits．But some parents are strongly against the idea．They can't see the advantages of students doing such chores （杂亊）．They think that the school should provide students with a proper education，not the chance to be school cleaners．
In fact，parents，schools and society play an equally （同等地）important role in developing the character of students．It is good for schools to give students such tasks，because few of the students will do them at home．Their parents want them to do homework only．
In recent years，some parents will make mountains out of molehills when students are asked to do some chores in schools．Some complain about the teachers if their kids get hurt in schools； some even challenge the schools'teaching methods and management．As a result，many primary schools，especially those in big cities，do not let students join in outdoor activities during breaks，fearing that they might get hurt．This is bad for the development of students'best qualities．
What the primary school in Fuzhou is doing is worth praising．Doing chores can put a sense of responsibility into students'minds and teach them the spirit of rules as well as teamwork．Also，it can make students'in﹣school experiences more meaningful．

It's been 100 years since the actor and filmmaker Charlie Chaplin produced the film The Kid ，which many consider to be his greatest one.
Like all films at the time，The Kid was made in black and white and was silent （made without any sound，not even the characters talking）.The story is about the relationship between " the Tramp"，played by Chaplin，and his adopted （领养的）child，played by Jackie Coogan.The pair develop a partnership where the six year﹣old boy breaks windows and runs away，so that Chaplin's character can offer his services as a window fixer.
Although the film is a comedy，it also has some tragedy，reflecting Chaplin's own life.He started testing actors for the role of the Kid just a few days after his baby son had died.Chaplin was known for being hard to please，and it is said that if he could，he would have played every role in every one of his films.When Chaplin visited a theatre，a dancer brought his son，Jackie Coogan，on stage，and Chaplin knew he had his co﹣star （联袂主演者）.Chaplin later wrote， "All children in some form have talents；the trick is to bring it out in them.With Jackie it was easy.
Like the Kid in the film，Chaplin and his brother Sydney grew up very poor.They lived in London and were raised by their mother.When Chaplin was 10 years old，his mum became too ill to loo after her sons，so they had to take care of themselves.He later wrote that the film sets in The Kid were based （基于）on the places where he and Sydney had lived with their mother as children.

always visited the theatre alone |

was possibly talented in acting |
| C． |
knew much about Chaplin before |
| D． |
played every role in Chaplin's films |
（3）Which of the following is TRUE about Chaplin？

He had a poor childhood experience. |
| B． |

You may study differently from your friends，but your study habits are not wrong!
Kelly and Maria are best friends with a lot in common.They love doing things together，such as going to movies and concerts，shopping，or just sitting at a small cafe.Since they take a lot of the same school subjects，they would love to study together，but they find this impossible.Their working styles are so completely different that they can't be in the same room while they are studying!
Kelly would like to study in a clean，open space，while Maria works best with books，papers and other things around her.Kelly prefers to study in a totally silent room，but Maria loves to play music or even have the TV on.Kelly can sit for hours without moving，and often gets all her homework done in one sitting.Maria，however，is always getting up，and says that she thinks best when she's on the move.
You might be asking yourself：which way of studying gets better results？Many people believe that a silent，tidy setting（环境）is the way to go，▲.Some research has even shown that outside noise and untidiness help some people focus（聚焦）their attention，because it makes them form a "wall" in their mind around what they are doing and improves their focus.
So，if you're a student who chooses to study while sitting at a table in a busy shopping center，don't worry about it.If you work in total silence，that's OK，too.Judging from Kelly 's and Maria's study habits，the best way to study is the way that works for you.In their very different ways，both of them do well in school，and both finish their work within the required time as well.

A.discuss two different study habits

A.and they have difficulty in study
B.and it can be true for most of them
C.but that doesn't seem necessarily true
D.but nobody does research on this question
（3）What can we infer from the last paragraph of this passage？
A.Students who like to study in silence will be more successful.
B.Both study habits can help students make progress in their studies.
C.Only a small number of students can study well in a noisy situation.
D.Friends with different study habits can do better by studying together.
（4）What can be the best title for the passage？
A.Are you studying the "right" way？
B.How can you improve your study habits？
C.Is it possible for friends to study well together？
D.What are the advantages of different study settings？

Speak Up
Often，we meet something that troubles us or makes us unhappy.We have a voice "because I can" in our minds.Talking with your loved ones，such as your parents and friends about how you feel，what you need and what you are thinking about can help you get on well with them and form deeper relationships.

| May 20，2021 Dear Principal， I think the students in our school should wear uniforms.Many schools already have them.Uniforms will help our families save money，since we would have to buy only one or two uniforms for the whole year.Uniforms could also give us more pride in our school.And best of all，if we all wore uniforms，kids wouldn't tease each other about their clothes. I know some students think uniforms are ugly and uncomfortable.But maybe we can pick a uniform that everyone likes.I think this is a wonderful idea for our school. Sincerely， Justin Jones |
