    Here are some students' New Year's resolutions of 2020.

    Hi, my name is Selina. I'm going to do my best at school. I'm going to finish my homework on time. If I need some help with a subject, I'm going to ask my teacher for help.

    My name is Dave. I'm going to eat fruit and vegetables every day. I'm going to drink more water and milk. I'm also going to brush my teeth after meals every day and wash my hands after going to the bathroom(卫生间).

My name is Tina. I'm going to meet more people and make more friends this year. I'm also going to be nice to other kids in my class. I'm going to be friendly to kids who need friends— like someone who is shy or new.

    I'm Tony. I'll never give out personal information such as my name, home address, school name and telephone number on the Internet. Also, I'll never send a picture of myself to someone or talk with someone online without(没有) my parents' permission(允许).

    What do you think the future will be like? Here are more answers from some students.

    Jimmy looked at the calendar (日历). He was not happy and hit (打) the calendar.

    "What are you doing?" asked his sister Susan.

    "I'm looking at the calendar."

    "I see that, but why are you hitting it?"

    "I don't want to go back to school tomorrow," he said. "I don't want to get up early, do homework every night, or sit in a classroom for hours."

    "So what do you want to do? Do you want to live under a bridge?" asked Susan.

    Jimmy said, "No, I could be a soccer star or a good actor."

    "Good luck at the age of eleven. Most sports stars and actors work hard for years, and most of them are educated (受过教育的). I don't really think you play soccer well, and you aren't handsome, either," said Susan.

    "That's not nice!" shouted Jimmy.

    "I'm sorry, but a little honesty (诚实) could help sometimes. And homework gets you out of housework. Dad doesn't make us do much housework when we have homework."

    "True."

    "And TV is fun when you only have time for a little of it. Sitting in front of it for hours is boring," said Susan. 

    "Also true," said Jimmy. 

    "And all of our friends are at school," said Susan. 

    All right, I get it. School isn't all bad," said Jimmy. 

    Friends, delicious school lunch, less housework…then Jimmy began to like school.

You will be as long as you work hard,
