Were you the first or the last child in your family? Or were you a middle or an only child? Some people think it matters where you were born in your family. But there are different ideas about what birth order means. Some people say that oldest children are smart and strong-willed. They are very likely to be successful. The reason for this is simple. So this child is very likely to do well. An only child will succeed for the same reason.

Middle children don't get so much attention, so they don't feel that important. If a family has many children, the middle one sometimes gets lost in the crowd. He or she is the baby. Often this child grows up to be funny and charming.

Do you believe these ideas of birth order too? A recent study saw things quite differently.. They didn't take many chances in their lives. They usually followed orders and seldom made their own decisions. Rules didn't mean as much to later children in the family. They went out and followed their own ideas.

A. They took chances and they often did better in life

B. Parents have a lot of time for their first child, they give him or her a lot of attention

C. The youngest child, though, often gets special treatment

D. The study found that first children believed in family rules

E. What happens to the other children in the family?

Is it difficult for you to remember things? I`d like to tell you some ways to improve your memory, so you shouldn't feel upset.

My first advice is that if you want to remember something well, you have to review it regularly(有规律地). You might review the material two days after you learn it, then a week later, then two weeks later, and then a month later. After a month you will find that you can easily remember the material.

My second advice is to use a colored pen to highlight （标注）the important parts on your book. This will help you in two days. First, it will help you pay attention to the most important parts when you learn the language. It is always easier to remember only the key points. Second, this will make reviewing easier. When you open your book, the colored parts will show you the most important things quickly. In this way, you don't have to review all the material again.

Another piece of advice is to use the proper time well. First, review all the information in your mind right before you go to sleep. Your brain is working while you are sleeping. If you think about the information before you go to sleep, you might be able to remember it better. Another good time for memorizing information is in the morning because you have just rested and your brain is fresh and clear. So you might also try to review the important information in the morning.

信息归纳

It is believed that social networks allow people to make their online social circle larger. But having 150 friends on WeChat is not the same thing as having 150 friends in real life.

In last week's Chitchat, we asked our readers how many "friends" did they have in their WeChat account(账户), and how many of them were "actual friends". Here are some of the top comments(评论).

@left and right

I have more than 1,000 friends in WeChat. However, the number of "friends" I communicate with daily is less than 50, most of whom are my classmates and families. So many friends are just there and we never speak any word.

@Kris Wilson Choy

I have almost 300 friends in my WeChat. However, people who I often send messages to is just 10. Most of these friends are classmates or people who work with me. Except work or studying, we hardly talk with each other during our spare time.

@Monica

To be honest, as an English teacher since 1981, I have more than 400 WeChat friends, most of whom are my students, students' parents, and workmates. Although we seldom meet face to face, our ties still remain normal. You see, they often ask me questions online, which I answer happily. Of course, sometimes I feel upset when they ask me to vote (投票) online or give likes. However, I generally do as requested, because it serves to glue our ties.

Hello, boys and girls. I am Helen. The Student Art Festival starts in our school this month. Let me tell you about it. Today is December 13th. There is a photo show (展览). Students take many photos. All of them are great. I love one photo very much. It's a photo of a big family. It has a name, "Happy birthday, Grandpa!" I think this student has a happy family, just like me.

In the next two weeks, we have other fun things, the talent show (才艺展), Chinese paintings (绘画) show and the DIY show. I like the talent show best. It is on the afternoon of December 19th. My classmates and I want to play the piano in the show. Our parents will come and watch the show. I hope we can do well. Do you have time? Please come and watch our show.
