One day, a woman took a bus with her son. The boy was about four years old. He ran on the bus and 1 up and down on the seat. There was a man next to them. When he saw it, he was a little 2 and told the boy not to run or jump, because it was very dangerous and it was also impolite (不礼貌). But the3said, "He is just a little kid, we shouldn't be so strict with a child." The man said to the woman, "4 we don't teach the kids now, they will not follow the rules in the future."

    Do you agree with the woman or the man? At 5, we have family rules. For example (例如), we can't6 on school nights. In the school, we also have school rules. We can't listen to music in the classroom. We 7 eat in the classroom. We must wear uniforms8 Monday to Friday. Parents and schools are sometimes strict, but remember, they make rules to help 9. We must 10 these rules.

We are often warned by our teacher not to waste precious (宝贵的)time, because time lost will never return. I think it quite true. What does time look like?  {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. Time is abstract (抽象的), so we have to think about it.

Time passes very quickly. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}.  It is because they don't know how to make use of their time. They waste it in going to theatres, cinemas and parks, and doing other things. Why do we study every day? Why do we work? Why do most people would rather take buses instead of walking? The answer is very simple. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}.

Today we are living in the 21st century. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. When a person dies, his life ends. Since life is short, we must devote our time and energy to our study so that we may be able to serve the people well in the future. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}, for it does not only bring us failure but also does us other harm. If it is necessary for us to do our work today, let us do it today and not leave it until tomorrow.

Remember time is much more valuable (珍贵的)than money.

A. We look upon time as life

B. Nobody knows because we can't see it or touch it and we can't buy it with money

C. Some students say they don't have enough time to review all their lessons

D. Laziness is the thief of time

E. We wish to save time because time is precious

Nowadays in school life, a lot of students develop a fear of tests. It's not because tests are something to be afraid of. Most students are afraid of tests mainly because they don't always think they are well—prepared and they don't have enough self—confidence. If you follow the advice below, it's not difficult to overcome your fear of tests.

People who know that they are not well—prepared are usually those who fear tests most. However, most students don't know when they are truly prepared for a test. As long as you know that you have studied well and long enough, you have reason to believe that you are well—prepared.

Be confident about yourself. Confidence before a test can bring about two results: either you fail the test and feel as if your confidence was unfounded (毫无根据的) or you could actually do well in the test because of your confidence. Some students find that they experience the first result. However, this is only because those students might not have followed the first advice mentioned above. As long as you have studied well, you will be more confident of your chance to succeed in a test. If you feel as if you have not studied hard enough, then you will not be as confident as you should be.

Ask your teacher in advance (提前) about the material that is going to be covered in the test. In this way, you will know what you should prepare for and you can get confidence in the test. But you have to be brave enough to ask. Most students do not ask unless their teacher gives the information first, so make sure that you ask.

You should know that tests are only telling if you have got the knowledge, not how good or bad your IQ is. So, even if you do badly in one test, you should know that there are other tests to come. As long as you think that there is another tomorrow, you can overcome your fear of a test. However, make sure that you are going to prepare well for the other tests.

Fear can be a problem in the process of achieving success. However, with the right attitude (态度) and preparations, you can overcome your fear of tests by using these suggestions.

Do you like to have any online classes? It is becoming 1 to take classes at home during the early 2020. All you need is a computer or a cellphone. However, most students don't seem to like online classes. A 2 shows that only 33% of over 1,500 students from 10 cities would take such classes.

Many students said it was difficult to focus(集中) on 3 while taking online classes. Lian Ruohan, 15, at the Affiliated High school of Peking University, said, "There are no real classmates sitting near me; no real teachers watching me. I can easily surf the Internet or do 4 things if I want to. It's harder to be always focused."

In order to avoid that, Lian will prepare a lot before classes to make sure she will learn 5 in class. She also pushes herself to communicate(沟通) with teachers about difficulties. She often 6 or answers questions while taking online classes.

Wen Jiayi, 14, at the Yucai Middle School, thinks online interaction(互动) isn't 7. "I have few chances to communicate with the online teachers, and they don't really get to know me. When I don't hand in homework, all I get is only a short telephone 8 instead of real care," she said.

However, Lian thinks online classes still have many 9. "It saves time and money compared to(和……相比较) taking official classes. Also, if I can't 10 some part of a lesson, I can watch it again to make it clear."

Have you ever wondered what an American high school is really like? This article will describe a typical (典型的) high school and its students.

A typical American high school has several large buildings and enough space for about 1,500 students. Every student is given a locker. When students first arrive at school, they go straight to their lockers to put away or get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes. As American textbooks are expensive, students would rather loan (租借) than buy them. Students must pay back if they lost any of them.

American students have different types of school transport. They usually take a yellow school bus or walk to school if they live close enough. Sometimes their parents drive them to school.

When they turn 16 years of age, most take a free driving class at school for one term. If students' exam passing grades in the class and also pass their state driver's exam, they can begin driving themselves to school.

Each day, students take six or seven classes. They must take science, math, English and social studies. They can choose art, homemaking, fashion design and other classes. In some schools students are required to take one or more of the following special classes: health education, physical education or foreign language studies. Students move to different classrooms for each subject. This is because cache teacher has their own classroom. There is a five-minute break between classes, to give the students the time to hurry to their next class.

The regular school day usually ends early in the afternoon. After school more than half of the students take part in after-school activities. These activities include sports, specially football, basketball, baseball and soccer or clubs, such as yearbook, speech, school newspaper, photograph or student government.
