You'd better not work when you're very hungry. If you decide to do your homework right after school, you may have a 1 before getting to work. Always do your homework 2 you get tired. Don't wait until very 3 in the evening, or the homework will seem much 4 than it really is.
Break your time into manageable (易处理的) periods. If you have more than an hour's homework, 5 yourself a break after an hour. On the other hand, don't break it up so 6 that you can't get anything done. You should be able to work at least an hour at a time without 7 . Don't put it off until the last 8 . If you put off doing your homework, you will always think of it and you won't enjoy your 9 time so much. If you put it off until the end of the week or until right before a test, you will have too much work to do for the exam.
A little bit each night, enough to keep up with what is happening each day in school, will take the 10 out of tests and keep you on top of it all. Do your homework at the same time every day. This will help you make it a habit.

“How can I learn English well ” This is a 11 many students may ask. In my opinion, the most effective (有效的) 12 is to learn lessons by heart. If you can recite the text and write it out, you will learn it pretty well. And if you can tell 13 your own words about 14 the lesson says, you are a very successful learner indeed. Your English will be quite perfect.
This is a difficult task. However, if you try to learn by heart only part of each lesson, you’ll find it not so hard 15 you might have thought.
Learn this way, and you will 16 fast progress. Of course, writing is also necessary. It helps you a lot on your way to 17 in English studies.
It’s equally (同样地) important to feel the language. You should laugh at Englsih jokes and be 18 at bad news. When using English, try to 19 your mother tongue (母语). 20 helping you, your own language gets in your way. So, never try to learn English through putting every word into Chinese.

Many people go to school for an education. 21 learn languages, history, geography, physics, chemistry and maths. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can 22 School 23 is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he 24 , cannot teach his students everything they 25 to know. The teacher's job is to show his students how to read and how to________. So much more is to be learned 26 school by the students themselves.
It is always more important to know how to study 27 than to memorize(熟记)some facts or formula(公式). It is 28 quite easy to learn a 29 fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in 30 out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo, didn't learn many things from school. But they were all so 31 that they invented so many things for mankind.
The 32 for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not 33 at school. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions as they read and they did thousands of 34 .

Doreen Sykora is now a student at McGill University. She had a difficult time 36 she first began college. She said, “I was always well prepared for my examinations. 37 when I go into class to take the exam, I would fall apart. I could 38 because of nervousness and fear.” Hitoshi Sakamoto, an anthropology(人类学) student at Temple University in Tokyo reports similar experiences.
These two young students were experiencing something 39 text anxiety. Because a student worries and is stressed about a test, his or her mind does not work as 40 as it usually does. The student cannot write or think clearly 41 the serious worry and nervousness.
Now there are special university courses to 42 students. In these courses, psychologists(心理学家) try to help students by teaching them to manage 43 anxiety. Such a course helps students learn to live with stress and not fail because of 44 . First students take a practice test to measure(测量) their worry level. If the tests show that their stress level is 45 , the students can take a short course to manage the fear. These courses teach students how to relax their bodies. They get training to become calm in very worrying situations. By controlling their nervousness, they can let their minds 46 more easily. Learned information then comes out without difficulty on a test.
Doreen Sykora saw immediate results 47 taking such a course. She now has a great interest in the relaxation ways. “ 48 , what I do is imagine myself in a very calm place. Then I imagine myself picking up a pencil. I move slowly and carefully. I 49 easily and let all the worry out. With each breath, more worry leaves me. It really works too. My grades have improved greatly! I’m quite doing well at McGill now. This relaxation 50 works not only on examination, but it has improved the rest of my life as well.”
For Hitoshi in Tokyo, the results were much the same. He is enjoying school a lot more and learning more.

Reaching top of math class
Do you think England teaches math the same way as China does The answer is yes!
In England, we have math 51 very similar to what kids have in China. During each lesson, our teacher teaches 52 about a new math concept（概念）. Later, we finish either a worksheet（活页练习）or a booklet（练习册）to improve our understanding. We have a test once every term to 53 how much we have learned.
But things were a little 54 in Year 7. We didn’t do any end-of-year exams. We did something different—a math test to form “sets”. What does set mean In each class of 26 students, only 30 percent will reach the top 55 . The other students will be in the medium（中间的）set. To get into the top set, you 56 to get high scores on your math exams. With the sets, teachers can focus on a smaller group of students who are 57 at math. They can pay more attention to them and give them harder questions to do.
I had my math sets exam 58 May 17. It had two parts, A and B．For part A, we had 40 minutes. It was mainly arithmetic（算术）and questions about numbers. For part B, we had 50 minutes to 59 problem-solving questions.
I got into the top set. It is true that the lessons are 60 harder. But I like it because it makes me more competitive（有竞争力的）.

Now the Internet is playing a more and more important role in our life. People 61 it in schools, hospitals, offices, libraries and so on. So it is now easier than ever to get on the Internet. Many students are 62 more and more time on computers. It will bring both good and bad results.
On the one hand, students can find more 63 information on the Internet, and it’s good for their studies. Also, they can practice foreign languages by talking to people in other countries.
On the other hand, some students lose themselves in online games. Their 64 becomes worse and worse. Also, because they are always on the computer, they seldom talk to their families.

Nowadays, lots of foreigners are learning Chinese. Like many of them, I 66 knew two words of Chinese (“Ni Hao” and “Xie Xie”) when I first came to Beijing, China in 2009. As you can guess, my life was 67 for a while after I arrived. Simple tasks like ordering food or taking a taxi were quite stressful.
I knew I had to learn more Chinese, so I 68 a Chinese class. My teacher was 69 , although I didn’t learn enough to have a real conversation. Later I studied on my own as well, but my progress was still slow. And I decided to 70 .
Around this time, I started playing in a band with a Chinese man who became one of my best friends in Beijing. He taught me a lot of 71 about music, such as “melody”. He learned a lot of English from me in return, so it was a good way to 72 language and culture.
I have learned enough Chinese to 73 many problems like booking train tickets. These days, there are more foreigners who are studying Chinese. I can 74 why it’s an amazing language. Finally, I found that the best way to learn a 75 is to make friends with native speakers and spend time with them.

About a year ago, a couple with 3 children moved into the apartment next door to me. I never heard any noise from the children, but the parents were always 76 them, in a frightening way.

I usually go out for breakfast and one day when I returned, they were just coming from their apartment and the little girl was holding the door open for others. I stayed in the car doing unnecessary things as I wasn’t in a 78 . The parents were telling her to get into the car immediately. I looked up and saw the little girl was still holding the door open, waiting for 79 .
As a disabled man, I can’t hurry at 80 , but I hurried as much as I could and thanked her. She was smiling like a lovely angel. I was so 81 by her small act of kindness. That afternoon I was shopping and I saw a white bear. I thought of the 82 and said to myself “I believe she would like that” so I bought it.
The next day there was a knock on the door and it was the little girl and her parents. She was so 83 of her bear and thanked me as if I had never been thanked before. The mother and father 84 thanked me.

The man next door was the only person I knew in the whole building, 88 when I saw him the next day, I asked him if he was the good man that cleaned my snow. He said 89 . He wanted to but his wife said she wanted to do it.

Students at a primary school in Fuzhou, Fujian province, are 116 to clean the school toilets to help them develop good habits. But some parents strongly 117 the idea.

In fact, 119 , schools and society play an equally 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 120 only.
In recent years, some parents often complain about the teachers if their kids get 121 at school; some even challenge the school’s teaching methods and management. As a result, many primary schools, especially those in big cities, do not let students join in 122 activities during breaks, fearing that they might get hurt. This is bad for 123 overall development.
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 124 of rules as well as teamwork. Also, it can make students’ in-school 125 more meaningful.

Wyatt Baldwin has been playing rock paper scissors since he was a kid. The game helped him solve 146 with his three elder sisters. “ I never got the chance to pick what we watched on TV until I learned the sport of rock paper scissors, ” he said.
He now is president of the World Rock Paper Scissors Association. He’s played in and 147 competitions all around the world. He once had a 43-game winning streak（连胜）. Well, what’s the secret of his 148
“ Look for patterns in either moves or behavior of your opponent who competes with you. As all serious rock-paper-scissors players know, there’s more to the game than 149 , ” he said.
Many people think the possibility of winning seems almost the same as the chances of 150 .
Actually, the result of the game isn’t random（随机）. This is because human behavior isn’t random. There are patterns in 151 people make decisions.
A study at Zhejiang University, in China, looked at how people play rock paper scissors. 360 students took part in hundreds of games. 152 found two key patterns. Winners tended to repeat their winning hand gestures; losers tended to go 153 from rock to paper to scissors.
Knowing the secret of the game isn’t a sure ticket to winning, but it can help. Ken Whitey Watson is one of the world’s best rock-paper-scissors players. He says winning takes 154 . “ You have to size up your opponent. Luck and chance are important, but you have to be 155 and have your own strategy,” he says.

You’re at your new school. It’s lunch time, but you don’t have anyone to sit with. You want to join someone at their table, but you’re not sure if they’re friendly. What do you do Natalie’s 156 of solving the problem was to create an app. She knows what it feels like to be alone at a new school. She found it difficult to make new friends and had to 157 a new table at lunch every day. If she sat by herself, she felt 158 . But if she asked to join someone and was 159 , she felt embarrassed(尴尬的). She created a lunch-planning app to help students like her find people to have lunch with.
The app—called Sit with Us—is 160 . If a student is having lunch, he or she can create an invitation. Other students can open the app and 161 that invitation. They can then use the app to decide when and where to meet. This allows students to make 162 online instead of face-to-face. This is the reason why it works so well: It 163 the risk of being refused, and the embarrassment that goes along with it.
Natalie is happy to see that people are replying to her app actively— 164 those who suffer from bullying(遭受欺凌). Soon after she made her app available to the public, she won a prize for it. She also appeared in many news stories.
Natalie was even asked to speak at a university. In her talk, Natalie wanted people to know that you don’t have to do something 165 to change lives. Sometimes, a small thing—like having a friend to enjoy lunch with—can make all the difference.
