    Traveling can teach us a lot in our life. It gives us valuable lessons that schools may not teach. Experiences, skills or challenges we learn through journeys make us wiser and stronger. So let's see some lessons that traveling can bring to us.

    Throw ourselves into the surroundings (周围的事物).

    The world is a wide classroom of life and traveling teaches us how to throw ourselves in a situation and enjoy the surroundings fully. This lesson is especially good for those searching for freedom ( 自由) in heart.

    Don't allow unpleasant things to influence us.

    A journey is not always full of happy moments. Sometimes it is an unpleasant memory: Being a traveler has its own difficulties such as missing planes, losing money, getting sick, and so on. However, don't let these things make our days unhappy. Everything will be OK, so enjoy the journey no matter what happens.

    Just do it.

    We need to give some things that we may not experience a try. In other words, whether we have done it or not, just do it.

    As summer comes near, many children are really happy to forget about school for a few months. The summer vacation is the best time for students. They can go outdoors and have fun. They can go to big cities to go sightseeing, or go to the countryside to enjoy the beauty of nature. However, studies have found that children forget between one and three months' worth of school learning during the summer months. Spelling and math abilities are seriously influenced because of the long vacation, while reading is not really influenced by the time off. The most probable reason for this is that most children usually read at least outside of the classroom, whether newspapers, magazines, books, or video game guides. However, their math and spelling skills only get exercised in the school setting.

    The first summer vacation appeared because the farm children have time off to help work in the fields in the high growing season, but this reason is no longer valid since fewer kids actually work on farms today. Some cities in the United States, such as Los Angeles, have moved to a year-round school calendar, which will bring less influence in their studies. Most cities still use the normal nine and a half-month calendars. To improve skills and to have a good level of preparation, experts suggested trips to museums, summer camps, and visits to libraries to keep kids active and interested the whole summer.

    There are other educational systems that provide vacations while still keeping students' skills in a high level. For example, in Japan students attend classes for seven weeks continuously, followed by two weeks of vacation. This continues to go through all the year. In Italy, students attend classes six days per week, but finish at 1:30 p. m. each day, so that school does not manage their life the way that it does in America.

    Educational experts fear that the three-month summer vacation stops the continuity of learning. Just as students get used to new ways in reading, writing, or critical thinking skills, then the summer vacation comes, they shut down for a long period. When they go back to school after the vacation, they take up to two months to return to their previous level of understanding. And so the debate continues: whether to continue the present vacations or to seek changes.

  1. (1) The students' abilities of the spelling and math are influenced in the summer vacation because they _______________.
    A . take the summer vacation too seriously B . do little work of math or spelling C . don't like spelling and math D . have to help work in the fields
  2. (2) What can we learn from the passage?
    A . Students may keep reading in summer vacations. B . The United States has stopped summer vacations. C . The summer vacations have no influence on students' skills. D . Now most children still work on farms in summer vacations.
  3. (3) What does the underlined word "valid" in the second paragraph probably mean?
    A . Acceptable. B . Aimless. C . Imaginable. D . Valueless.
  4. (4) What is the best title for the passage?
    A . Do We Need New Educational Systems? B . Do Summer Vacations Confuse Students? C . Should Summer Vacations Be Changed or Not? D . Should Students Improve the Ability in Vacations?

Title: Inner voice helps a lot throughout our lives.

    When you couldn't open your mouth till the first two years on the earth, inner voice helps you understand things. Inner voice always shows thoughts and ideas in the body.

    It justifies(判断) what is right and what is wrong. When we go against inner voice, we usually feel uncomfortable throughout our lives.

Sometimes when we are feeling sad, we seem to need some kind of support in spirit. We usually speak to our closest friend or our dearest family member during times of unhappiness to feel better. After talking to them, we suddenly feel active again, because our inner voice reminds us to get on with things and leave the things of the past in the memory.

    Inner voice is always right most of the time, because it knows us better than others and even ourselves. It's good to go by inner voice most of the time. Whenever you are trying to smoke, or whenever you are asked to choose one side in an argument, you are always worried about the result. During these times, your inner voice tells you what to do. If you don't follow your inner voice, you might be unhappy in the future. It's our own choice to either pay no attention to our inner voice or follow it and search for real happiness.
