Nearly half of elementary and high schools in the US use the Presidential Fitness Test. It checks kids' fitness levels. Students are tested at least twice a year. In 1956, US President Eisenhower created the test, and it has been a tradition in schools since 1966.

There are five activities in the test: sit-ups(仰卧起坐), push-ups(俯卧撑), sit and reach, endurance run(耐力跑) or walk and shuttle run(折返跑). Students who get scores at or above 85 percent on all the activities can get a Presidential Physical Fitness Award.

The test encourages students to live a healthy and active life. Students taking the test are really testing their limits, according to the US National Association for Sport and Physical Education.

China has a similar test: the physical education(PE) test. Beginning at the age of 7, students in China are tested twice a year to check if they are healthy and strong. They also finish activities like the endurance run, sit-ups and the shuttle run.

However, unlike students in the US who get awards, Chinese students get points in PE tests. The highest score is 100.For junior school students, the PE test is more important because it is 30 to 40 points in the entrance exam for senior high school. In order to get a good score, most students begin to prepare for the test in their junior one year.

Being organized is an important skill for school and life. What does it mean to be organized?
For schoolwork, it means having one notebook and writing down all the work you need to do, so you know what you have to do and when to do it.
At home, being organized means having places to put your things. It means keeping your school bag, your shoes and your clean clothes in the right places, so you always know where to find them.
Planning is part of being organized, too. Calendars and lists can help you plan. You can buy or draw a calendar and put it on your desk. Making a to-do list for yourself is a good idea. Looking at your list helps you remember what you need to do.
You may think it's hard to organize yourself and your things, but if you are organized, you will feel great. The less time you spend looking for things or worrying about the homework, the more time you will have for other things, like reading a good book or playing interesting games.

Five years is a short time in the long history of China. But as for the digital world, there are a lot of changes.

Now we can talk easily with friends on Wechat. When shopping, we needn't carry much cash because most of the stores accept Wechat Pay and Alipay. And online shopping becomes a part of our life. For example, we can buy train and plane tickets on different apps in a minute. If we want to go somewhere, it is easy to find a Mobike as well as a sharing car on the street.

We may not realize how these changes decide our life, but we never stopped and will not stop moving forward. China decided to set up the Xiongan New Area in Hebei Province on April 1st, 2017. It will be a smart city in China in the future. What's more, robots will play an important role in looking after the old people in five years. In an old people's home of Hangzhou, the robots called Ah Tie work quite well.

Thanks to the developing digital world, our life is becoming better and better.
