Moderation（自我调节）
Pay attention to how you lead your life most of the time.A healthy lifestyle is one that doesn't take extremes（极端）as a way of life.Be moderate in what you do.
Eat well
It is important to pay attention to both what you eat and how you eat.As Socrates said ： " You should eat to live；not live to eat." A different diet（饮食）with vegetables and fresh fruits is good for the brain.Also take time off for meals.
Exercise
Students must know the value of exercise because it plays a necessary part in counterbalancing（抵消）the stress（压力）responses produced in our bodies by having to meet exams.
Sleep
Students are getting less and less of sleep which might lead to more stress.The hours of sleep before midnight are thought to be the most helpful.For this reason students must re﹣regulate their body clock and go to bed and get up at regular time.
Express yourself
The way students feel about their work and other issues in their life plays a huge part in how they deal with stress.It is advisable that students should be realistic whatever happens in their lives.
To sum up，studies are really very important，but never at the expense（代价）of students' physical and mental wellbeing.Besides，if students feel well they will be ready to face the challenges（挑战） of exams alive and kicking.

Students from Taizhou Middle School，Jiangsu Province，experience farming during their labor（劳动）course.As we all know，the life skills like cooking and painting are important and should be taught as part of labor education.
On June3，2020，the Ministry of Education （MOE）（教育部） gave a document（文件） showing the revised curriculum（修改后的方案）for senior high schools across the country.Labor education includes housework，school labor and community voluntary（志愿的）services and so on.
" Labor education must be carried out（实施）with the purpose to make the right view（观点）of the world，life and values and develop an interest in doing chores，" said Vice﹣Minister of Education Zheng Fuzhi.
According to China Youth Daily，the labor course will take six credits（学分）﹣﹣﹣ the same as foreign language and physics.Voluntary service，as part of labor education，would take two credits.The MOE also asks schools to make sure 40 hours of voluntary service during the full three school years.
According to Xinhua，adding labor education was out of care that the country's young people do too little housework and that they think labor jobs aren't important.Because of a lot of school pressure，schools pay more attention to the course of education，and parents may think that the chores waste their kids' time.
According to a survey，middle school students in China only spend 12 minutes a day on chores，compared with 72 minutes in the US，42 minutes in South Korea and 30 minutes in France.
However，doing housework does not distract（使分心）young people.Instead，they are necessary for developing a strong working spirit，according to Julie Lythcott﹣Haims，the writer of How to Raise an Adult. "The earlier you started，the better..."，he said.

Xiangiang Middle School encourages the students to have different talents.Mike plays the guitar at school，and Max plays the drums.They both play very well.All the students like to enjoy their music.There are more than 50 clubs in the school，but they want to do something different.One day Mike and Max decided for the school's first marching band（行进乐队）.But they needed more musical instruments （器） and members.
Mike and Max put up a sign asking anyone who plays a musical instrument to join.Many students were really interested in this.Soon they got a lot of answers.
Sam really wanted to join the band，but he had one huge problem.He could not play any musical instrument.Sophia also wanted to join the band，but she played the harp （竖琴）.The harp is too big.She can't carry it while playing.
"How can you be in our band？" Mike asked Sophia."You play the harp sitting down，how can you march？"
All the band members wanted Sophia to play in the band.But they also wanted to march.Where is the way？
Then Max had an idea.He invited Sam and Sophia to join the band.Max asked his father for help.His father is good at creating.He made a big board with four wheels.Then Max asked Sam to ride a bicycle to pull the board with Sophia and her harp on it.Sam could use the bicycle's bell as a kind of musical instrument.
The band members loved Max's idea and everyone loved the marching band's great music.

Screen﹣Free Days
I remember the first time I suggested screen﹣free days in our school to some of our student leaders.Jokingly，I said to the group， "What do you think if we go a week without using our laptops or smartphones？"
They laughed，and one of them said， "No way，Mr.White.They would be too much." I could feel their worry，and told them that I was only considering single screen﹣free days.Even that idea left them feeling upset.
According to a survey we did，most student in our school spend about six hours a day on screens.Many of my students start their day by checking their smartphones.I often see them looking at their phones when getting off the bus or at parents drop﹣off﹣they can't use their own "screens" at school.They usually work on computers at school for at least two hours during the day.
It's clear that our students spend a lot of time on screens，We do see the benefits of technology.However，we teachers also want to make sure that students have balanced learning and social experiences away from their screens.That's why we have come up with the idea of screen﹣free days.
During the course of the year，we have built in several screen﹣free days that require us to make different plans for our students about how they will communicate with one another and the world around them without "screens".For some teachers，this means bringing back a valuable lesson plan that has been put off for some time because it is "out of date".Others have designed something completely new.
Fun activities，for example，card games and room escape（密室逃脱） games，are organized at school.In these activities，students socialize without smartphones and have face﹣to﹣face communication without checking on "likes" they've got online.These fun activities also make it possible for the whole grade to enjoy the company of their friends with no smartphones.
After our first screen﹣free day，students mentioned that they were surprised they enjoyed it.Finding ways to help our students connect with one another is important.
While technology is already part of our world，it shouldn't play such an important role in a learner's life.

Do you ever give up easily in difficult situations？If so，imagine yourself as someone with great abilities，like Batman （蝙蝠侠）.It will help you feel strong.You will not give up easily and will probably do better.This is called the Batman Effect （效应）
In a study，researchers gave three groups six﹣year﹣old children a difficult task to complete on a computer.In Group One，the children were told to repeat asking themselves， "Am I working hard？" In Group Two，the children were told to ask themselves the same question in the third person一as in"Is Sam working hard？" And in Group Three，the children were told to imagine themselves as Batman and ask themselves "Is Batman working hard？" Researchers found that the children in Group Three did the best.
How can you make use of the Batman Effect ？Imagine yourself as someone who is the best for the task you are doing If you're facing a personal difficulty，imagine yourself as a wise family member.If you're running a race at school，imagine yourself as a top runner.In this way，you can become a little more like the person you wish to be.
