Last year in early summer, I was walking up the hill to my house when I saw two birds, each about 60 centimeters tall, standing on the road. They didn't seem to 1 me until I was right in front of them and then they at once moved 2 into the trees.

A few weeks later, the birds 5 again. I found them crouching (蹲伏) beside a tree. As I moved nearer to them, I 6 that they would run away like they did last time. But instead they stuck out their heads and made a threatening (威胁的) croaking sound. It seemed to warn me not to go any 7 .

As I moved quietly towards the birds, 9 not to make any sudden movements, they started their croaking again. They straightened their necks forward so they seemed 10 and more threatening. The mother looked at the babies, and 11 them well in her feather (羽毛).

Question: I want to speak English well. What can I do? | |
Students | Opinions |
Susan | If you want to speak English well, I think you should read English books and listen to English radio. You shouldn't think in your language. You must think in English and speak what you think, and then you will be successful. |
William | I think the most useful way is watching English films. But you know this all depends on yourself. If you work hard, you can find that speaking English is quite a funny thing. Keep moving! Nothing is impossible! |
Ravi Chandra | Don't be afraid and then you will become a good speaker. Speak whatever you want in English in front of a mirror. Try this for just 30 days and then see the results. I hope you will practice this. |
Helen Gao | If you can study carefully for a long time, you will see the results. You should have a right way and speak English bravely. I believe you will smile in the end. |
Miguel finally sees Dad. He's just back from a working trip. "How's your chess game, Miguel?"
"Mrs. Lambert says I'm the best chess player in the school! She says you teach me well."
"We'll play after dinner," Dad says.
At night, Miguel wants to help Dad clean out his suitcase (手提箱). "Wait, Miguel. I'll take my next trip next morning." "Oh, Dad!" Miguel cries. "But you just got here!" Miguel eyes the suitcase. When he was little, he got into the suitcase, thinking Dad could take him to work as well. Sometimes Dad traveled really far and it was day there when it was night for Miguel. They couldn't even talk by phone.
"I'll miss you," Dad says. He then pets a box from his suitcase and hands it to Miguel.
Miguel opens it. A beautiful chess set!
"Thank you, Dad!" Miguel cries. "It's so nice!"
It's an exciting game of chess. When Miguel's bedtime comes, it's still not over. "Keep it. We'll continue the game when we meet again, OK?" says Dad.
Miguel carefully takes the chessboard to his bedroom. He looks at it, wishing the game could continue.
"Oh, that'll be a great idea!"
The next morning, when Miguel wakes up, Dad's gone. After studying the chess board for a minute, Miguel calls Dad and leaves a message: "Dad, it's me…"

Students usually go to school in different ways. In our school, most students get to school between7:30 and 8:00 in the morning. Some arrive on foot, and some take the bus. However, eighty percent of the students arrive in their parents' cars. The entrance (入口) to the school is crowded and dangerous. I think cars are the main problem. I think there are a few things we can do.
First, we should encourage students to take the bus or walk to school. Taking the bus can help cut down air pollution. Walking is healthier, too. Next, what should parents do if their children have to come to school by car? I think their parents should park their cars far away from the school entrance. For example, they can park their cars at the end of the street. Finally, in my opinion, when parents park dangerously in front of the school entrance, they will be punished and have to pay some money — a fine. This way, they will be cautious and think twice before parking.
In a word, cars are making it dangerous for students to enter the school safely. Therefore, encouraging students to walk to school, or asking parents to park away from the school gate could solve this problem.
①The scientific method is used for simple experiments that students may do in the classroom or very difficult experiments that scientists are doing all over the world. It is a way of thinking that helps you to avoid drawing incorrect conclusions (结论). There are usually four steps in the scientific method, including observation (观察), hypothesis(假设), experiment, and conclusion.
②The steps may not always be completed in the same order, but the first step is usually observation and asking a question about your observation. For example, you had a sick stomach, and ate a candy bar. An hour later, you observed that you felt much better. Here, you can ask a question, such as, "What makes a sick stomach feel better?"
③The second step is to state a possible answer to the question, or a hypothesis, such as " ▲ " A good hypothesis includes three things: The explanation for the observations, it is able to be tested, and it will usually predict new results or conclusions.
④The third step is the experiment, to test the hypothesis. An experiment is a test which will either challenge or support the hypothesis. The hypothesis will then be true or false.
⑤The final step is to think about what happened when you tested the hypothesis and draw a conclusion. The conclusion will either clearly support the hypothesis or it will not. If the results support the hypothesis, a conclusion can be written and you can share it with the rest of the world. If it does not support the hypothesis, you may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment.
Choosing a job isn't always easy, but there are still some tips that can help you make up your mind.
Sometimes adults may want you to become a doctor, or work in banking, or be a teacher. Listen to them, but remember it's your life and it's your decision. So be sure that you are the one who makes that decision.
Consider what you are good at.
It's true that things like salary are important, but don't let them lead you down the wrong path. Follow your heart and your personality. If you don't like work which needs lots of attention to detail, think long and hard before you decide to do something like applying to study engineering at university.
Your first decision isn't forever.
They start a job, love it straight away and stick at it. But it isn't always like that. So remember that you are allowed to change your mind. It's not necessary to worry for years. Maybe your first job doesn't turn out to be suitable for you. Maybe the right job for you is right around the corner!
Some people choose their jobs simply because they think they'll make huge amounts of money. OK, if that is what you want. But people usually get more satisfaction out of their jobs if they feel they are doing something valuable for others. It doesn't have to be charity work. It could be a job that helps other people in the community.
Just don't forget that job satisfaction isn't only about money.
A. Do something of value. B. Others can decide your future. C. Some lucky people get it right the first time. D. Don't let other people decide what you should do. E. If you are very active, don't choose an office job, even if the pay is good. |
