    It's Monday today. When Alice gets up in the morning, she finds everything is white. It's snowing. It looks very cold. So she puts on a warm sweater. After having some milk and bread for breakfast, she wants to ride her bike to school. But her mom tells her not to do that because there's too much snow on the road. Then she walks to school. There's a P. E. class on Monday. Alice is very happy because she can play with snow with her friends.

    Making the most of time is important in our life. Here are some tips that might be of help to you.

    Make a plan. You should make a list of what you want to finish every week. The plan includes things you want to finish. You should know what the most important ones are, and try your best to do them first.

    Control your stress. No matter what kind of stress you have, try to keep cool. When you have a lot of things to do, too much stress may make you slow. Don't work all day without breaks.

    Focus on one thing at a time. Don't try to do many things at a time! You will lose your focus (注意力), and it will take you longer to finish your work.

    Just say "no". If you really don't have the time to help out, just say "no". You're only one person, and you can't save the world by yourself!

    Stop wasting time on the phone. While talking on the phone, keep your conversations short. In this way, you'll waste much less time.

    Relax. The most important thing is to take time to relax. Even if it's a 10-minute walk, get away from your work and get relaxed.

    Patrick doesn't like school. He thinks doing homework is too boring. He likes to play baseball and basketball after class.

    One day his cat is playing with a little elf (精灵). The elf says, "Help me! Don't give me back to that cat. If you help me, I can grant（承认you a wish." So Patrick says, "Help me do all my homework for 35 days."

    The elf doesn't always know what to do and he needs help. "Help me! Help me!" he says. And Patrick has to help. "I don't know this word," the elf asks. "Get me a dictionary. Look up the word." When it comes to math, the elf says," I know nothing about math. Here, sit down beside me and help me." The elf doesn't know anything about history, he says, "Go to the library. I need books. And you can help me read them, too."

    Patrick works hard every day. Patrick gets A at each subject. But I tell you a secret. In fact Patrick does the homework by himself.
