It was half past five in the evening when Sarah came home from work. She walked into the living room and looked at her three children. The children were fourteen, thirteen and nine years old. They were watching TV.
The room was dirty and untidy. There were empty glasses and dirty clothes on the floor. There were cakes on the sofa. Toys were everywhere.
Sarah got angry. “How dirty and untidy this place is!” She said to her children. “I can’t work all day and then do housework all evening. I’m not doing the housework!”
And so, Sarah didn’t do the housework. She didn’t clean. She didn’t do the dishes. She didn’t wash the clothes. Every evening she sat in the sofa and watched TV.
Two weeks later, every dish in the house was dirty. All the children’s clothes were dirty, too. Every trashcan was full. The whole house was dirty and untidy.
Then one day Sarah got very surprised when she came home from work. The kitchen was clean. The children had cleaned the kitchen!

Read the article and then fill in the column for “good behaviors”. (读短文，完成后面的表格。)
We say that a person has good manners if he or she behaves politely and is kind and helpful to others. Everyone likes a person with good manners but no one likes a person with bad manners. Different countries and different races (种族) have different manners. We must find out the customs of other races, so that they will not think us ill-mannered. But people all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means being kind and helping others, especially those older or weaker than ourselves. If you remember this, you will not go very far wrong.
Here are some examples of the things that a well-mannered person does not do.
He never laughs at people when they are in trouble. Instead, he tried to help them. He is always kind, never cruel (冷酷), either to people or animals. When people are waiting for a bus, he takes his turn. He does not push to the front of the queue. In the bus, he gives his seat to and older person or a lady who is standing. If he accidentally bumps into someone, or gets in their way, he says “Excuse me” or “I’m sorry”.
He says “please” when making a request and “Thank you He stands up when speaking to a lady or and older person, and he does not interrupt (打断) others people when they are talking. He does not talking too much himself, he does not talk loudly or laugh loudly in public. When eating, he does not speak with his mouth full of food. He used a handkerchief when he sneezes or coughs.

Read the passage and then answer the questions. (阅读短文，回答问题。)
People have different learning styles. Generally speaking, there are three styles of learning: learning by seeing, learning by hearing and learning by doing. Accordingly, there are three kinds of learners. They are Seeing learners, Listening learners and Doing learners. Seeing learners remember the page of a book like a photo. For them, diagrams, charts, outlines or pictures mean much more than pages of the textbook. Listening learners need to hear the word or sounds to master the material. They remember by reading or reciting aloud. Doing learners learn best by acting out, moving around and playing with the material. They particularly enjoy laboratory classes (实验课) because they can use the whole body in learning.
