We'd better develop our interest in English at the beginning of our study. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} We may feel good when we can say something simple in English.

{#blank#}2{#/blank#} So we must make some plans before study. And we should certainly carry out these plans in our study.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}Our notes are much thinner than the books so that we can learn them by heart easily and can often review and read them. We may also record our notes on tapes so as to listen to them easily.

      Reading a newspaper is the best thing to improve your English.{#blank#}4{#/blank#} It will help you keep in touch with a lot ofsubjects in English.

{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Learn by heart the whole sentences and the phrases that contain the new words so that we may know how to use the words.

If time permits, we may read a miniChinese-English dictionary carefully from cover to cover, which may help us widen our sight and master knowledge in all ways.

A. Read a little from a newspaper every day.

B. Don't read books without making notes.

C. Carefully write an e-mail in English.

    Taking a math test can be pretty stressful. Even if you know the material, you can still get the problem wrong. Knowing how to go through your math test and check your work can save you from handing in a test full of mistakes that can be avoided. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

Write it out

    You can also check a math problem by writing everything out on paper. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Writing out math problems reduces your chances of missing anything to the lowest possible level, which is a common cause of incorrect answers.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Make sure your answers work by doing the opposite procedure of what your problem calls for, including the answer you got the first time around. In other words, you would use the opposite of this addition problem—subtraction (减法)—to determine whether or not your answer is the correct one.

Plugging in

    You may find that a variable isn't good enough or have a problem where you have to solve for a variable (变量). {#blank#}4{#/blank#} This is the only real way to assure yourself that the answer you've found is correct.

Check for a reasonable answer

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} For example, if you get an answer in the millions and you know it should be in the thousands, you've likely misplaced a point. Go back through the work on your paper to make sure all of your formulas and calculations are correct. If everything looks okay, do the problem again and compare the result of the second try to what you've got on the first try.

    When it comes to the end of daylight savings time (DST), trying to remember how reset the time on the microwave might be the least of our worries. According to a review, a one-hour shift in your sleep cycle can affect you for up to a week.

    Dim the lights and your device

    Light can inhibit the production of melatonin, a natural hormone that is associated with sleep onset. When we stare at the screen of a phone or television, or even read next to too bright a light{#blank#}2{#/blank#} Try dimming the lights and turning off your device at least thirty minutes before bed.

    Turn down the thermostat (恒温器)

    When we sleep, our body temperature drops, reaching our lowest level at around 5 a.m. If the air in our bedroom is too warm{#blank#}3{#/blank#} The National Sleep Foundation says the ideal sleeping temperature is around 18 degrees Celsius. Experiment with what temperature range is best for you.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    According to researchers, there's no bad time to exercise when it comes to improving your sleep.

On the flip side, there is a good and a bad time for food{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Additionally, it's best to avoid spicy (辛辣的) foods and caffeine before bedtime.

A. Exercise often and eat early.

B. Develop a bedtime routine.

C. But that doesn't have to be you!

    Are you suffering from FOMO—that is, Fear Of Missing Out? Research shows that a growing number of young people are, with worrying consequences for their sleep and schoolwork.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}You aren't able to do your best unless you sleep well. Most experts agree that the optimum(最适宜) number of hours is eight, and this has been accepted as common sense for as long as I can remember. However, I was young once and know most of you get much less sleep than that.

    I read an interesting article in a teachers' magazine recently.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}Worryingly, the results showed that teenagers are facing a new problem. They may go to bed and get up at appropriate times, but a growing number are waking up in the middle of the night, not to use the bathroom or have a snack, but because of FOMO.

    According to the article, the number of students waking up during the night to check social media is growing. Afraid of missing a comment or opportunity to take part in a chat, teenagers are waking at all times of the night, going online and getting involved.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Experts are worried about this growing trend and the report reveals some worrying statistics: 23% of 12-to 15-year-olds wake up nearly every night to use social media.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}One in third of the students are constantly tired and unable to function to their full capacity.

    So I'd like to ask you to be responsible when it comes to social media. Switch off your devices at night. The world won't end and your social media will be waiting to greet you in the morning!{#blank#}5{#/blank#}

A.But things are getting out of hand.

B.They did a study of 848 students in Wales.

G.Everybody knows how important it is for students to get a good night's sleep every night.

    Learning to set goals plays an important role as your child starts to gain independence. However, setting goals doesn't come naturally to your child, so helping him to learn the process should probably be one of your goals.

    Explain the word “goal”．Your child may know what a goal is when it comes to soccer, but he may not understand what it means in everyday life.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    Help keep goals achievable. Don't throw cold water on your child.{#blank#}3{#/blank#} For example, if your child wants to be a champion swimmer, but can't swim an entire lap of the pool yet, you can suggest he start by making that his first goal.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Help your child write down his goals in an easy­to­follow form.Being able to see and check off the steps on the way to his goal is the key in keeping him motivated.A really simple way is to have your child draw a ladder on a piece of paper, writing his goal at the top and each step to that goal on the rungs (梯级)．{#blank#}5{#/blank#}
