How can I get good grades at school? How can I finish so much homework every evening? What should I do if I’m not interested in my classes ? Who will teach us this term ? Maybe you have such questions in your mind before school starts.
Well, I want to give you some good advice on these problems.
First, keep calm．Don’t worry about all the question you have. Put your heart into learning，and you can find something you are interested in．Do it actively．
Second, try your best to finish your homework quickly．Don’t spend a lot of time on it．Do more reading or writing in English．Think about the problems you have and solve them at once．Don’t stay up late，or you can’t study well the next day．
Third, think of something instead of copying or repeating．If you can remember the words in your way，you can tell your teachers you don’t like the way of copying them again and again．Be sure you can pass the test．I think your teachers will agree with you．And they can give you something interesting to do．
School is really a good place for you to learn．Believe in your teachers and yourself．You are the best one and you can do everything well．

"Can I see my baby?" asked the happy new mother. When the baby was in her arms, she couldn't believe her eyes. The baby was born without ears.

Time proved(证明) that the baby's hearing was very good though he had no ears. He got on well with his classmates. But one day, he said to his mother, tears in his eyes, "A big boy called me a freak (畸形的)."

　　The boy's father asked the family doctor. "Could nothing be done?"

　　"I believe I could graft (植入) on a pair of outer ears if they could be got," the doctor said. They tried to find a person who was helpful for the young man.

　　One day, his father said to the son, "You're going to the hospital, son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need. But we must keep it a secret who the person is."

　　The operation(手术) was a great success, and a new person appeared. His cleverness and hard work made him a very successful person. He married and lived a happy life.

　　He once asked his father, "Who gave me the ears? I could do enough for him or her."

　　"I do not believe you could, "said the father." The agreement was that you are not to know...not yet."

　　For years they kept it a secret, but the day did come. He stood with his father over his mother's body. Slowly, the father raised the thick, brown hair. To his surprise, the son found his mother had no outer ears.

　　"Mother said she was glad she never needed to cut her hair," his father said in a low voice, "and nobody ever thought mother less beautiful, did they?”

True friends are hard to find. Often you thought you could believe in someone, b     1 later he or she may let you down.

A true friend is someone who will always be there for you. T  2 good times or bad times, they will stand by your side. They will not l 3 you alone when things get difficult. They will a 4 you without trying to change you. A friend will b 5 new and exciting things into your life and make it richer.

True friends will keep your worst secrets as you will keep t 6 . They will be honest and you can always believe in them. If you talk to someone who you believe in, you don’t have to worry about what you may say. We can enjoy this freedom only with friends.

Friendship is a two-way street. To find a true friend and keep the friendship between you, you must do the same thing as w 7 . Be there for your friends when they are in need and share the good times with them .O 8 them the same things they give to you. Friendship will break quickly if only one person is giving and p 9 effort(努力) into it.

You will find there is nothing more v 10 than having a true friend by your side to share life with, just as someone says, “There is nothing on this earth more to be prized(珍惜) than true friendship.”
