Read the self-introductions below. What kind of lifestyle do you think the two students have
It's September a new start for every student. Teens has invited two students to write about their daily life in senior secondary school.
I'm joe, a student from London.
You'll often find me sitting in front of my laptop.
I'm a ... digital native!
The online world is a big part of my life.
I'm a "digital native"
I've been using the computer since I was a kid.
I do a wide range of things online. Besides doing all my school work, I chat with my friends, watch films and read the daily news and other interesting articles; I also shop favorite things online, such as books, computer hardware and other necessities.
It's so convenient to be able to compare the quality and prices from different online shops before I buy. I also play computer games from time to time and I even play tennis on my television screen in my living room!
My parents are worried that I may become an “Internet addict. They think I'm playing computer games all the time and I chat too much with online friends. According to them. there is a danger that I may not be able to tell whether these friends are real friends.
My mum keeps telling me to go out with my school friends instead.
Maybe she's right.
It's important to meet friends in person from time to time not just on social media.
Actually, I do know I need to drag myself away from the online world sometimes, especially because real life can be just as interesting.

I'm Li Ying.
I liketo set goals for myself.
I'm a "go-getter”- when I set out to do something I do my best to achieve it.
I’m a ... go-getter!
Senior secondary school is a new start. Studying is definitely a big part of my life. I tend to set a goal for every subject at the beginning of each term. My aim is to do well in every subject this term.
Biology is my favorite subject, and my target is to prepare myself for my degree in biology at university. I am always attentive in all classes and think actively, so that I can have more free time to do other things that I'm interested in after school.
I like reading books of all kinds. I have a top 10 reading list and I try to keep it updated. Meanwhile, I'm an active member of my school's long-distance running team and volunteering club. It always makes me excited to work hard and achieve a team goal together.
To achieve all I want, I must use my time well. At school, do my homework when I have spare time. After school, I try to use any possible time to revise the things I have learnt during the day.
For example, it usually takes me 20 minutes to get home by bus. I often use the time to review English words. As the popular saying goes, “Every minute counts!” Set a goal and get ahead!
