A blind high school student in Shanghai became famous after getting 623 points at this year's Gaokao. The student, Wang Yun, got 127 points for Chinese, 145 for math and 144 for English. His grade was only 3 points lower than the first one in his city. And the only difference between Wang' s test and other common students' was that his was in Braille (盲文).

    After knowing the result, Wang was just as calm as before. He wasn't so excited like other common students. After Gaokao, Wang still went on learning English and history by himself. And he also went on to play the piano that he stopped for some time because of Gaokao.

    Wang became blind at an early age. But it did not stop him from living a wonderful life.

    Wang's parents, both teachers at Donghua University, sent him to a school for blind children. There he did excellent work in his study as well as sports. What was more, he was very popular in class. Because of his good grades, many other students liked to ask him questions and looked on him as their little teacher.

    According to a new American study, having dinner with children may help to reduce (减少) the number of problems that develop in parent—child communication. The1was done among about 5, 000 middle school students in Chicago public schools.

    The students were studied at the beginning and the end of the sixth grade and again at the end of the seventh and the eighth grade. They were asked2they ate dinner with their parents. They were 3 asked how often their parents had a conversation(谈话)with them that lasted more than 104, praised(表扬) them when they did well, asked them where they were going and asked how they were doing in school. The study5the more parent—child communication, the6problems between them.

    Family meals are a good opportunity to7in touch with children, said Jayne Fulkerson, a member of the study team. "You can get to know8going on in their life better."

    However, Fulkerson also suggested that parents9suitable(合适的) topics(话题). Topics10grades and homework are not good choice.

 Hello, I'm Eric. I am

George is a 15-year-old middle school student. He didn't use to be interested in English. When he started taking English seriously in Grade Nine, he noticed that his grammar was a serious problem. He couldn't understand the sentences because of the grammar. To fix this, he created a study plan to improve his grammar.

He started by reviewing the basic grammar rules. He realized that he was poor in grammar because he never really understood the rules. For example, he would often mix up verb tenses（时态）. To deal with this, he spent a few weeks just going over the basics. It was a little boring at first, but it made a great difference.

One of the turning points for him was when he began keeping a grammar diary. Whenever he made a mistake, he would write it down along with the correct usage. He remembers one time, he kept confusing the past perfect tense with the simple past. Writing out the differences and practicing sentences in his diary helped him internalize（内化） the rules.

After a long time of hard work, George has made great progress in grammar. Now he has a better understanding of English grammar. He can understand different tenses, parts of speech and sentence structures（结构） better. He can also find out and correct the mistakes easily. He likes English a lot now and he is sure that he will get better at English.

In fact, to get better at anything, one needs to find what one is not good at and deal with it head-on. Remember, challenges are also chances. They are chances for you to get better.

 There's a special place in Taiwan, China. It's Qingjing Farm. I had some free time last weekend,1 I went there for a visit.

 The farm has 2 parts(部分). I went to Green Grassland first. It was so big and green, and I saw a lot of 3 . I also saw a machine(机器) selling sheep food, so I bought some. As I walked around, I stopped to 4 the sheep here and there. That was a lot of fun! Soon, it was time for the farm's sheep show. My favorite part of it was sheep shearing(剪羊毛). A man 5 a sheep's hair. It was so easy for him and he 6 in just 5 minutes.

 After that,I went to the second part of the farm— Guanshan Pastoral Area. I watched a horse 7 there. Two men did a lot of cool tricks(技巧) with the horses. It was really 8 .

 Then I made my way to Shoushan Park. It's the farm's last part. I saw a lot of trees and animals and took many 9 with my smartphone.

I had a good time on Qingjing Farm! I want to visit it again. If you pay a visit 10 the farm, you' ll like it too.
