    Good morning, boys and girl. Today I'll talk about going online.

    We know that there are too many net bars around us. The Internet can make our lives interesting and enjoyable. Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer. We can learn English and read some newspapers and magazines to know more information around us. It can make us clever in playing computer games. Also we can send e-mails to our friends quickly. It can help us contact(联络，联系) people from all over the world.

    But some students spend too much time in playing computer games and some stay in the net bars all day and all night. Some girls even get to have boyfriends or some boys get to have girlfriends online. They write too many letters to each other. It takes them too much time to chat online so they do worse in their lessons and they don't study well any more.

    I think we mustn't get online when it is time for us to study. We can do it in summer or winter holidays. I think we should get online with our teachers or parents.

    At the same time, if we have lots of free time, we can do some activities after class. We usually have activities from 4：50 to 5：50 in the afternoon . You can play basket ball or football. We also have some interest groups in school, such as drawing, singing and dancing. We can go to the English corner on Monday afternoon. We hope we can spend more time on our subjects or on such activities that we can learn a lot from and less time on the Internet.

    Do you want to improve your English? {#blank#}1{#/blank#}You should write down the correct spelling and grammar（语法）next to the mistakes. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}.Listening to the radio and reading newspapers in English are also good ways.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    If you have a pen friend, you can write emails to each other.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}you can speak to him or her.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}You should keep smiling all the time because smiling always helps.

    It is necessary for children to help their parents with housework. But most parents may find it difficult to get their children to help with it, because children usually enjoy playing games instead of doing housework. However, I have some good ways to get my children to do housework. Here is an example.

    "Mum, what's next week's housework? Let Kitty and me choose the cards. I can't wait. It's interesting!"

    When my son, 7-year-old Tommy shouted, I began to put all the cards on the sofa. On the cards, I wrote some words like these, "wash the car, take out the rubbish, make the bed, do the dishes, clean the living room, sweep the floor, wash the clothes, take the dog for walks, water the flowers" and so on.

    Kitty and Tommy chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they wrote them down on their notebooks. Tommy likes to take the dog for walks best while Kitty enjoys cleaning the living room. Soon the two kids had fun taking away all the cards. And I didn't need to worry about the housework again. Of course, on weekends, I usually do the housework myself and set the children free.

Good Habits of Successful People

    Have you ever wondered how some people have gotten so successful? Sure you have. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} But most successful people share certain habits. Here are several habits that have helped place them on the top.

    They get goals and imagine.

    Ninety-five percent of the successful achievers practice writing down their goals, plans, or visions for success on a regular basis. Successful people do this the night before, or early in the morning. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    They wake up early.

    President Obama, Richard Branson and Tim Cook are known to be early risers. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Because early risers are able to start their days ahead of everyone else to respond to others, exercise and find some personal time, they tend to be happier and more proactive (积极的).

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    Sixty-seven percent of rich people only watch TV for one hour or less per day. Corley also found only six percent of the wealthy watch reality shows, while 78 percent of the poor do. Additionally, 86 percent of the wealthy love to read with an impressive 88 percent claiming that they read for self-improvement for 30 minutes or more per day.

    They know when to say "no".

    Successful people realize that by saying "no" to negativity, extra work and activities that waste time, they can focus on increasing their productivity. If they say "yes" to everyone or everything, they'll be too distracted. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

    What do you think of your study habits？Do you find it hard to concentrate on your homework？Do you forget anything that you studied the night before？If you have these problems, maybe your study habits are not so good. Here are some tips to help you improve your study habits.

    ● Plan your time carefully. When you plan a trip, one of the first things you must do is to make a list of things. If you don't, you are almost certain to leave something important at home. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. Otherwise, you may forget to leave enough time to complete them.

    ● Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study place. Keep this space, which may be a desk or a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No computers, radios or televisions! If you can't find such a place at home, find a library where you can study.

    ● Make a good plan of your study. In class you should pay attention to what the teacher says. Sit where you can see and hear well. Good listening in class means less work later. You should take notes, too. After class you should go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss next day, read them first. This will help you understand the next class better.
