I prefer my English classes to be taught in English only. What we all know, a good learning environment is of greatly importance if we want to study English well. Classes teaching in English provide students for a better environment. When English is an only language in class, students will have more opportunity to practise listening and speaking. However, there were problems with this method. Sometimes we may find difficult to follow the teacher and some slow learners may even give up learn English. In spite of these difficulties, but I believe practice makes perfect. With enough practice, we can overcome the difficulties and benefit from English classes in the long run.

If you had a strange sound in your ear，what would you do? One man in Wales who thought he had a fly in his ear called 999，the emergency services number in Britain．And so did a woman who was worried about her green potatoes．Could she make chips with them? Were they poisonous? She didn’t hesitate about calling the local ambulance service to ask．According to a recent report，more than 31，000 non-urgent calls were made to the Welsh Ambulance Service in the last year．

Inappropriate calls are a headache for health professionals everywhere．In the US，prank calls to 911 happen on a daily basis．Many callers use apps which hide their identity．But those who try to be funny shouldn’t be surprised if the police have the last laugh．One man from Colorado was arrested for making more than 1，200 prank calls，according to a report on the US television station KOAA—TV．

People who take these calls are trained to stay calm and keep a straight face，no matter how strange the call sounds．“There’s no way for us to know whether the call is real，accidental or a prank call，”said a public safety worker interviewed by the American TV channel．

The Head of Clinical Services at the Welsh Ambulance Service，Richard Lee，has a warning for prank callers．He says，“When people misuse the service it means our precious time is being taken away from someone who really does need our help．”Indeed，these hotlines are supposed to help the seriously ill or those with a life—threatening injury．You never know，one day，the person who needs assistance could be you or someone in your family．

Matthew Henson—Arctic Explorer

In 1880，fourteen-year-old Matthew Henson loved to hear sailors tell tales of their exciting lives at sea．The travel，the adventure，the danger，and the steady pay were all attracting young Henson．One day，he found a job as a cabin boy on a beautiful ship called the Katie Hinds．For the next five years，Henson sailed around the world．With the help of the ship’s captain and other members of the crew，Henson learned mathematics，navigation，history，geography，and many other subjects．By the time he left the Katie Hinds in 1885，Henson was well educated and had become an excellent seaman．

Unable to find work anywhere else，Henson took a job in a hat shop in Washington，D．C．One day in 1887，a man came in to buy a hat．The man，Robert Peary，asked the owner if he knew anyone with experience at sea．Peary would soon travel to South America for the U．S．government．He needed experienced men to accompany him．The shop owner knew about his young employee’s skills and experience on ocean journeys，so he introduced Peary to Henson．

Using his map-reading and sailing skills，Henson proved himself to be a worthy and smart seaman．Peary soon made Henson his assistant，and they became close friends．One day Peary told Henson about his real dream：to be the first man to stand on“the top of the world”at the North Pole．He asked Henson to help him make his dream come true．Over the next five years，the two explorers made two trips together to the Arctic．However，they were not able to reach the pole either time．The cold，wind，and ice were worse than either of them had ever imagined．

In 1908，Peary and Henson were ready to make their final attempt at reaching the North Pole．Both men were over forty years old．The years of hardship in the arctic cold had made them suffer a lot．This would be their last chance．With four Inuit guides，they made a mad rush straight across the ice toward the pole．Peary’s feet were injured and he had to be pulled on a dogsled．In April 1909，Henson’s instruments showed they were standing at the North Pole．Together Henson and Peary planted the American flag in the snow．

In later years，Robert Peary and Henson were greatly honored for their achievements．Today，the two friends and fellow explorers lie in heroes’graves not far apart in the Arlington National Cemetery．

A blog can be a very effective way of spreading the words about yourself，and your other writing．It can unshroud your knowledge，and create an ongoing relationship with your readers．A good blog is more than just a marketing tool；it’s also an expression of your personality．

An obvious starting point is to post samples of your work that not only show off your skills and writing ability but also leave people wanting more．Post elections from the most exciting parts of your stories but end them just as the action reaches its peak．If you write nonfiction(写实文学)，show people what they can achieve，and give them a few steps to get them started．

Give tips，information and advice about the subjects you cover．For example，something about struggling with difficulty and many other issues like this．Your writing tips can also be included，as well as interesting，strange or funny things you discovered during your research．Whenever you contact an expert，ask if he or she has any interesting stories you could use．You may also give background information about your stories and locations.

Give details of Coming posts on your blog，so people can watch out for you，or come and meet you．Personal news will help people feel better connected to you．Include photos of objects and locations in your writing，famous people you meet，the views from your window，and your favorite things—with a note about where they come from and what they mean to you．Look out for things that will help your readers get to know you better，know the subject better，or anything else you think they might find useful，inspiring or entertaining．

Instagram(抓拍神器)is a game．Getting likes and followers is no easy task．My sister routinely breaks 150 likes on Instagram，no sweat，because she just gets it．1. Here’s what to do and，more important，what not to do．

1． 2.

You can’t post photos optionally．Think of it like stealing grapes at the grocery store when a clerk isn’t watching．So when DO you actually post? Sunday evening is“prime time”for likes．because“everyone is bored and not doing homework．”I guess that applies to the real world too!

When not to post? Mornings! The likes are“strange and sporadic(零散的)．”

2．Also，don’t post too much．

I don’t care how much you’re feeling your look． 3. This isn’t a buffet：we want a very small piece of your life．Remember，“You can’t give the people too much or they will pass their eye over it quickly．”If you’re posting three to four times a week，others may“reevaluate your life”．I see no lies!!！

3．But if it is a big week in your life，feel free to post more than usual．

Of course，there’s always the exception to the rule． 4. The social media shouldn’t punish you for having a lot going on! Just remember to take it easy after．

4．5.

a．Be“natural and fun”．

b．Selfies are“not to be taken seriously”．

c．“Selfies should only be when you have a good one．”

A．Selfies have strict rules．

B．Wait a while before Selfies again．

C．Timing is everything．

D．No one needs to see eight pictures from your date night out．

E．After all，Instagram was meant to record important moments in your life．

F．Just make sure you post afterwards and let the people want more．

G．Thankfully she was able to take time out of her busy schedule and break down the science of Instagram for us“old”folk．
