Many schools are trying to provide their students with free time. One is that it is not easy to find enough time.School days are full of classes and activities.The other is that there isn't enough space.
One answer to the problems is to schedule(安排)free time around meals.We schedule breaks for students both in the morning and in the afternoon.We also provide long free time at the end of the school day.
Although scheduling free time in the school day can be difficult,finding the way to do it is worth(值得) it.Free time activities can help students be more active and more excited to come to school every day!

In choosing a friend,one should be very careful.Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends.They will be with you as long as you have money or luck,but when you are down.they will run away.Do you know how I have found a good friend?I look for certain qualities of character.such as understanding,honesty and reliability(可靠).

There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special.A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun.A good friend likes the same things I like.We share experience and learn from each other.A good friend has a good sense of humor,too.He likes to laugh with me.
