    Hello, everyone! I'm Tina. Today I'd like to talk about my advice {#blank#}1{#/blank#} learning maths. It is a good idea {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (read) the textbook before the class. Always listen {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (careful) to the teacher during the class. This is the key point. And remember to take {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (note). Read your notes {#blank#}5{#/blank#} you do your homework. Then you can do your homework {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (much) easily. I also suggest you {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (write) your mistakes down on your notebook. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (not) forget to write down the correct answers next to the mistakes. If you have some problems, you can ask your teacher for {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (help). That's all. Do you agree with {#blank#}10{#/blank#}?

    A woman one day said something that deeply hurt her best friend. She felt sorry immediately and would have done anything to take the words back. She went to an older, {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（wise） woman in the village, explained her situation, and asked {#blank#}2{#/blank#}help.

    After {#blank#}3{#/blank#}（listen） to her, the older woman felt her pain and knew that she could never help her get out of it, {#blank#}4{#/blank#}she could teach. She said, "Tonight, take your best feather pillows（枕头） and put every feather on the doorstep of each house in the town before the sun {#blank#}5{#/blank#}（rise）."

    The young woman hurried home {#blank#}6{#/blank#}（get） the pillows which were very dear to her. All night long, she went from doorstep {#blank#}7{#/blank#}door step, putting down the feathers carefully. Finally, just as the sun rose, she finished the work and returned to the older woman.

    "Now, "said the wiser woman, "go back and collect all the feathers. Then everything will be as it was before. "The young woman was {#blank#}8{#/blank#}（surprise）. "You know that's impossible! The wind blew away each feather as fast as I placed them on doorsteps!"

    "That's true," said the older woman. "Never forget each of your {#blank#}9{#/blank#}（word） is like a feather in the wind. Once spoken, nobody can ever help you return {#blank#}10{#/blank#}to your mouth."
