Good evening, everyone! It is my honor to be here to share something with you. Today my topic is “Stop {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(choose) merit students(优秀生)”.

    There is no doubt {#blank#}2{#/blank#} choosing merit students may inspire some students to learn from those models, which make many parents happy, for they always attach great importance to their education. However, this way has its {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (weak). As we know, the students are still young, and choosing merit students may be {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(harm) to their mental health by sorting them into good students and bad students. So it {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(obvious) doesn't benefit them in health. At the same time, teachers are always {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(drown) in teaching, thus ignoring their virtue and PE, which does more harm {#blank#}7{#/blank#} good to the growth of students.

As a matter of fact, what is more important is that we should take measures to enter their minds to find {#blank#}8{#/blank#} they are thinking and desiring. Only in this way can we really find an effective method {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(guide) them at school. Everyone may have a balanced {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(develop).

    That's all.

    Thank you for listening!

    Ever since humans lived on the earth,they have made use{#blank#}1{#/blank#}various forms of communication.In general,the major form of expressing thoughts and feelings{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(be) spoken language.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}there is a language barrier, communication is completed through body language.Smile is the most universal{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(face) expression,which shows happiness and puts people a ease.But sometimes,it is likely to hide other feelings,like{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(angry) and worry.There {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(be) different ways to greet someone in different countries.People from Columbia like approaching others and kiss them on{#blank#}7{#/blank#}cheek.In France,if adults meet people they know,they can kiss each other twice on each cheek. Being polite to others is{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(object),but we'd better not give a hug to a person with higher rank.Body language is {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(real) complex, so we should study international customs{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(avoid) difficulties in today's world of cultural crossroads.

    Today, our class went to “The Fishery”, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} is a local fish store, because we are learning about fish: where they live and how they are different from people. Inside the store it was very dark, except for the bright lights on top of each tank. The girl {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(work) in the store told me that the lights are neon, and they are used to show off the bright colours of each fish. Under the lights, the fish were blue, purple, yellow, and green. They {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(look) so beautiful that I wanted to take all of them home.

    Today I went to a conference, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} two students had a debate about the strengths and weaknesses of the Internet.

    The first speaker talked about the positive{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(affect) of the Internet on our lives. The first is its value for people who {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(look) for information now. For example, with the touch of a button or the click of a mouse, a student will find enough information at his or her command. The second is our ability {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (relate) to others through the Internet and it is especially important for disabled people {#blank#}5{#/blank#} can't leave their homes. The {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (two) speaker talked about the negative effects of the Internet {#blank#}7{#/blank#}our lives. For example, some experts think that the outcome of spending too much time on the Internet is difficulty in {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(form) social bonds. They were also quite explicit(明确的) about how heavy Internet users spend {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(much) time with their Internet friends than their real-life friends from school and work.

    Both sides presented lots of statistics to support their arguments. My own judgment is that though the Internet is beneficial, we should use our {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(intelligent) and not be a slave to it!

    In the age of the smart phone, there seems no reason to ask questions about: the weather forecast, a business's phone number or directions, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} can be easily found on Google, but very often people {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(actual) ask these things by {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(make) a phone call. Your answer may be replied to with a thank­you e­mail. This isn't the first time that great changes {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(take) place in our manners due to technology. In {#blank#}5{#/blank#} late 1870s, when the telephone {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(invent), people didn't know how {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(greet) a caller. Often there is just {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(silent). Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor, suggested that people say "Ahoy", {#blank#}9{#/blank#} finally "Hello" went out. The greeting is now used in everyday face­to­face communications. Try to be respectful no matter who you communicate {#blank#}10{#/blank#}. Just keep it in mind that politeness never goes out of fashion.
