Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members, and even their parents, don't know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice.
It is very important for teenagers to have good friends or a circle of friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking on the phone. This communication (交流) is very important in children's growing up, because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members.
However, parents often try to choose their children's friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. Have you ever thought of the following questions?
Who chooses your friends?
Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you?
Have you got a good friend your parents don't like?
Your answers are welcome.
As a volunteer teacher, I travelled a long way to a small village school in Longzhou, Guangxi. On my way there, I thought about the village, the school, and the children there. However, my heart sank when I arrived there. It wasn't what I expected. It didn't look like a school at all. The school had only 3 classrooms, one for Grades 1, 2 and 3, and another for Grades 4, 5 and 6. There was a third one for me.
The children welcomed me warmly on my first day. They asked me a lot of questions, and I told them stories and my life in Shanghai. The next day, I gave them a test to find out their level. To my surprise, although the test was very easy, over half of them failed it, and yet they all wanted to learn new things. I knew they needed me.
I was busy preparing lessons, and reading test papers every night. I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hard—working children, and I could see that they were making progress with my help. I have also learned a lot from them. I understand their lives better and we are now good friends.
I have worked in Longzhou for a year by now. I'm very happy, and the experience has been very useful for me. I love the small village and the children. In fact, I would like to continue working here.
Could you please in the room？
Will it matter if you don't take your 1 ?A short time ago, a test was given in the United States. People of different2, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got 3 breakfast at all. Scientists wanted 14 how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfasts.
The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work 5 than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, eggs, bread and milk 6 going to school, he 7 more quickly and listen 8 in class.
The result is opposite to 9 some people think. Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight(减肥). This is because people become so 10 at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight(增肥) instead of losing it.
