Gloria: 25 May, 2021-09:36 Recently I've started keeping a small study diary. I write down everything I need to do and when it needs to be done by. Then I write a reminder a few days before the date just in case. It's helping. Amy: Thanks, Gloria! I agree. |
|
Nick: 25 May, 2021-08:33 The most important thing is to start studying a few weeks before the exams and not leave it until the night before! That's just common sense, I think. Amy: Nice tip. Thanks, Nick. |

Leo: 25 May, 2021-08:06 Hi! Amy. My tip is to have a big noticeboard in your bedroom, divided into different sections. I've got one. It's a whiteboard. I've got a section for each school subject and another one for other stuff. I use board pens to write reminders and I make sure I look at it every day. The best part is when I remove something from the board! Amy: Great tip. I've got a board. I'll try to use it in the same way. Thanks, Leo. |

The last time I saw my best friend was about a year and a half ago.It was her 16th birthday,and I flew hundreds of miles to see her.It was a total movie moment.She came into the room,and suddenly I jumped out,shouting,"Happy Birthday!"
Many of my friends also had a lot of practice keeping a long﹣distance friendship,let's share some opinions.
Chen Mu,17,Hunan
Talking to your friends online often keeps the friendship going!If the phone call doesn't always include a deep conversation,that's fine.Try a video chat.Sometimes friendship is about knowing that someone's on the other line.
Lin Pan,16,Xiamen
My best friend moved to another city far away.We keep sharing everything so we know everything about each other's lives.It's a lot easier to imagine your best friend is there with you if you share the same information.It's like your friend is still there with you.
Zou Wen,15,Guangzhou
Be there for your friends when they need help.Your friends may have a hard time.While you probably won't be able to be there for them as much as you used to,it is worth it to lose an hour of sleep when they need help.
Luo Yan,15,Shanghai
The present that shows you care.This is a fun one and a must.It doesn't have to be a lot,but it will let them know you are thinking about them.
Wang Fei,18,Beijing
Realize that people change and that your friends won't stay the same no matter how much you want them to.Your friend might start to act more and more like a different person.But complaints (抱怨) won't help your friendship.And you are changing too.Everyone has to be ready for growing up.

" Red envelope "(微信红包)has swept the country recently.Children can get more money by snatching(抢)red envelope.

Thanks to the success of phones.and e﹣readers,e﹣books have become popular.Still,
there'something special about the feel of traditional paper books.In your opinion,which are better and why?
Paper books
Xie Yifan,16
I prefer reading paper books to e﹣books,In my opinion,reading paper books helps us to learn,while e﹣books give us a relaxed feeling.What's more,paper making technology was one of ancient China's four great inventions.
XuJingdn,15;Although reading e﹣books is becoming more and more popular,we still need and value things that we can touch.The most important advantage of paper books is feeling their weight.There is nothing better than the feeling of pulling book off the shelf and being engrossed(全种贯注的) in its pages.
JiangJinyli,16;
From my opinion,e﹣books show 8modem feature.First of all,energy saving and
emissions(排放) reduction are popular nowadays,The invention of e﹣books is a good way of dealing with these problems,which is good for environment,because paper books need wood resources What's more,e﹣books cost less,so students can afford them.
WuXlaoyang,17;
I prefer e﹣books to paper books.E﹣books are easier to read because you can download and start reading them in 8few minutes,Whenever you want to read,you can just turn on your electronic device( 电子装里) and find an app(应 用 款件).Besides,many e books are sold at Low prices,which you seldom get with printed books

You've been learning words since you were a tiny baby.At first,you learned them only by hearing other people talk.Now that you're a reader,you have another way to learn words.What should you do when you come to a word and you think you don't know what it means?(1) .
Say it
First sound it out.Then say it to yourself.(2) .Sometimes you know a word in your head but you don't know what it looks like in print.So if you match up what you know and what you read ﹣ you have the word!
Use context
If this doesn't work,take the next step:look at the context the other words and sentences around it.Read this sentence:When it rained,the dog looked for shelter in the doorway.(3) .Rain and in the doorway might give you helpful information.
(4)
If the context doesn't help,look at the parts of the word.Does it have any parts you know?These can help you understand what it means.If you don't know the meaning of miner,try looking at parts of the word.You might know that a mine is a place underground where people get coal and other valuable things.A lot of times, ﹣er at the end of a word means "a person who does something".So a miner might be someone who works in a mine.
Look it up
If the three steps above don't work,you can look it up.(5) ,either a book or online.
Nobody knows the meaning of every word,but good readers know how to understand words they don't know.
Choose five sentences out of the six in the box to complete the passage.Each choice should be used only once.
A.Use word parts
B.Look at the words
C.It might sound like a word you know
D.You can find the word in a dictionary
E.Following some easy steps can help you
F.If the word shelter doesn't look familiar,look at the words around it
School Gardens Could Help Children Try More Vegetables
It's not always enjoyable for children to eat vegetables.But what if a garden is built in the school?New research suggests that a gardening program in schools can increase children's vegetable intake(摄入量) .
How the Study Was Carried Out
The study was carried out in eight schools,Each school was in the gardening program for one school year.Every child in grades 3﹣5 received a total of eighteen 60﹣minute lessons across the school year.In the program,each school built a garden,where children learned to grow their own fresh produce,like fruit and vegetables.
The Benefits Children Could Get
The study found that vegetable intake if the children who grew their own produce increased greatly across the year.Related studies show that increased vegetable intake can improve health and cut the risk of chronic diseases(慢性疾病).Not only are there benefits to health,increasing the variety of vegetables children are exposed(接触)to may also make mealtimes much easier." Children who are often exposed to a variety of vegetables are more likely to try new foods," explains Dr.Kerry Jones.For children,growing their own food is a powerful tool to increase their intake of the food.(2)
Any opportunity to expose children to more vegetables is meaningful. "If children are learning about vegetables at school,it's important to encourage this interest," says Jones.Parents can listen to their children about what they have learned and read the handouts they bring home from school.Parents and children can also read books together.Younger children can enjoy reading stories about vegetables with parents who offer useful message.Older children may enjoy searching through cookbooks with parents to find new dinner ideas to cook vegetables in a tasty way.Besides,a small planter box in a sunny part at home can encourage children to understand more about where their food comes from.
Teaching children to grow their own produce is a great way to increase their preference for the produce.If children are taught to enjoy vegetables early in life,they will probably continue eating vegetables in the long term.

(3)What can we learn from the program?

When it comes to the letter grade on your test or homework, you might notice that there is no letter E. Have you ever thought about why that is so?
In the A, B, C, D and F grading system, the first four letters are typically considered passing grades. An F in this system simply stands for"fail".The word"fail"happens to start with the letter F, which seems to leave out the letter E. The fact of the matter is that any letter can mean "not﹣passing" or "fail".Some schools have U grade for"unsatisfactory",or I grade for "incomplete".
Even with all this said, we should also point out that E grade actually has been used pretty commonly throughout the history of letter grades in the US.
The first college in the US to use a letter grading system like the ones we use today is Mount Holyoke College. In 1897,they began to use the following grading scale:
A: 95﹣100%(excellent)
B: 85﹣94%(good)
C: 76﹣84%(fair)
D: 75%(barely passed)
E: below 75%(failed)
We can see the inclusion of E instead of F.
Gradually,the letter grading system became more popular throughout the US. However, many schools decided to drop the E grade and go straight to F.There is no evidence(证据) to really support this,but one possible explanation is that teachers were worried that some students and parents might mistake E for "excellent".
Why do we have letter grades? Well,part of the reason is that they made grading simpler during a time of great change for schools. As the 20th century began,growing cities and an increase in immigration led to larger school classrooms. Most teachers at that time thought this new letter grading system was an easy,fair and clear way to grade students.
Today,more and more people argue that letter grades don't fully reflect(反映) student learning.However,as teachers try to improve grading methods,many parents continue to favor the letter grades they got as kids.They are familiar(熟悉) and easy for parents to understand. So while they might not be perfect, the letter grades probably aren't going away any time soon.
(1)what does an F stand for in the A、B、C、D and F grading system?
(2)when was the letter grading system first used in the US college?
(3)what is one possible explanation for dropping the E grade?
(4)what did most teachers think of the letter grading system in the 20th century?
(5)why do many parents still prefer the letter grades today?
Say you're sitting around with some friends playing video games and someone mentions a game that happens to be one of your favorites."Oh,that game's easy.So not worth the time,"one of your friends says.The others agree.Although you enjoy the game quite a lot,not wanting to argue with them,you go along with the crowd.
You have just experienced what is commonly referred to as peer pressure(同伴压力),also called peer
influence.You will adopt a certain type of behavior,dress,or attitude in order to be accepted as part of a group of your"peers".As a teen,you are likely to have experienced the effect of peer pressure in a number of different areas.
We are all influenced by our peers at any age.For teens,as school and other activities take you away
from home,you may spend more time with your friends than with your family.As you become more
independent,your peers naturally play a greater role in your life.
According to Dr.Casey from Cornell University,teens are very quick and accurate in making decisions
on their own and in situations where they have time to think.However,when they make decisions in the
heat of the momentor in social situations,their decisions are often influenced by factors like peers.In a
recent study,teen volunteers played a video driving game,either alone or with friends watching.The
researchers discovered that the number of risks teens took more than doubled when their friends were
watching,compared with when they played alone.This shows that teens may find it more difficult to control risky behavior when their friends are around,or in situations where they are extremely angry.
Just as people can influence us to make unwise choices,they can also influence us to make good ones.A teen might join in a volunteer project because his or her friends are doing it,or get good grades because his or her friends think getting good grades is important.In fact,friends often encourage each other to study,or try out for sports.
While we are always influenced by those around us,the decision to act or not is up to us.So when it
comes to decision making,the choice is up to you.
52.According to the passage,Dr.Casey probably agrees that teens .
A.like to play driving games with their friends
B.prefer situations where they have time to think
C.may take more risks when their friends are around
D.are slow in making decisions when they are on their own
53.The words" in the heat of the moment"in Paragraph 4 probably mean" ".
A.when teens avoid possible risks
B.when teens trust their judgment
C.when teens lose control over their anger
D.when teens give consideration to situations
54.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Teens are eager to be different from their peers.
B.Peer pressure has effects on both teens and adults.
C.Peer pressure does more harm than good to teens.
D.Tees think it challenging to get good grades at school.
55.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Peer Pressure:Is It Necessary to Deal with It?
B.Peer Pressure:Is It Possible to Get Away from It?
C.Peer Pressure:Its Benefits to Teens and Friend Making
D.Peer Pressure:Its Influence on Teens and Decision Making.
In the past, I thought I was terrible at many things, such as math, French and science. Although I was good at drawing, I wasn't the best in my art class.I wanted to find out who I was,what I liked and how I could do it better.So, that winter,I took a notebook and kept my diary. When I filled that notebook,I started another one, and then another.
Keeping a diary helps a lot. Studies have shown that people who keep a diary sleep and feel better. It helps people remember what once happened such as dreams, friendships and happiness. Writing about bad feelings can also help brains get over themand move on. Personally, I learn better about myself and my relationships with others by keeping a diary.For example,when I am fighting with my dad, I'll try writing from his point and it works! If I want to compare myself with my classmates.I'll write something like,"I might not have clear skin, but I like my eyes."
Right about now, you might be thinking: it sounds great, but I'm not a good writer; or I'd love to keep a diary, but my handwriting is terrible. Don't worry! Keeping a diary is not like doing your homework ﹣there are no rules, so do whatever feels best.
(1)What was the writer good at in the past?
A. Math.
B. French.
C. Science.
D. Drawing.
(2)What does the underlined word "them" refer to(指的是)?
A. Studies.
B. Bad feelings.
C. Friendships.
D. Brains.
(3)What is the second paragraph(段落) mainly about?
A. Reasons for fighting with Dad.
B. Rules of comparing with others.
C. Ways of having clear skin.
D. Advantages of keeping a diary.
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.

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?

Mostly, inventions happen because someone works to solve a problem. Kids are natural inventors.They often create amazing thing from simple ideas.Here are a few examples that might make you wonder,"Why didn't think of that?"
Popsicles
Popsicles were invented by 11﹣year ﹣old Frank Epperson in 1905. He forgot a drink of juice and left it with a stir(搅拌) stick in it outside on a cold night. The next day it was ice. Because of this he couldn't drink it any more, but he could eat it. It tasted good! These ice sticks became popular among kids at school in summer because they were delicious and helped them stay cool.
More than a hundred years later, popsicles are sill one of the best summer treats!
Crayon Holdans
When 11﹣ year﹣ old Cssidss Coldstein needed crayons for a school project,she had a hard time because,there were so many small or broken ones.She found some small clear plastic tubes(管子)at home.Although the tiny tube were usually filled with water to keep flowers fresh, she found that they fit tightly (紧紧地) around the crayons. She was now able to hold them easily.This is how she invented Caryon Holders.
Wristies
When snow gets in kids' gloves and their hands get wet, they feel uncomfortable.10﹣year﹣old Kathryn Gregoary decided to do something about it.She created the wristies as she wanted to keep her wrists(手腕)warm and dry. Wristies are long gloves with no fingers and they are worn under your coat. They help you when you work in the cold because your hands stay warm while you use your fingers. With her parents' help, Kathryn also opened a small shop where she sold her wristie. And she still runsit today.
All these inventions have one thing in common﹣the kids were trying to solve problems in their lives. When you meet problems, what would you do? If the kids can do it ,you can do it, too!

Mr. Guo is a teacher from Xi'an. He asked his students to hand in their homework through a QR code(二维码)."We spent an hour or two in class learning how to generate(使产生)the codes, and in the end everything gets easier," said Guo."When students finish the homework, they keep it on WeChat. Then, each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me. So I can check their homework everywhere using my computer or telephone."
The QR codes can be sent to Mr. Guo by email, QQ and WeChat. When Guo scans (扫描) his students' QR codes, their homework appears on his phone. He finds that their homework becomes more creative, with many pictures, music and even videos.
Guo's students like the new way and think it is interesting. "We are living in the information age. Many students like to work with computers, which makes learning more fun." said Tingting, a student of Guo's.
"The paper is not easy to keep, but the code is easy to keep and share." Guo said,"It is worth trying to use new technology in education. Education itself is a kind of creation. I don't want my students to fall behind the times."
However, some parents are worried. They are afraid that their children will spend too much time on computers and less time communicating with teachers. But in fact, it's unnecessary. Students still need to look up information in books and write it down when they do their homework. They only use the code when they hand in their homework, which doesn't take them too much time. Also for teachers, it allows them to check the students' homework at any time. And it's also an easy way to share homework with other students.
(1)According to the passage, students can keep their homework on .
A. WeChat
B. QQ
C. email
D. blog
