      Four girls were at the same school. They were good friends, so they often studied and played together. They went to school every day by taxi. One day one of the girls said, “There is a test this morning. Let's go to school late. Then we won't have to take the test.” “What can we tell the teacher?” One of the girls said. “He'll be angry. We'll need a good excuse.”
The girls thought for several moments, then one of them said, “Let's tell him that our taxi had a flat tire(爆胎).” “That's a good idea,” the other girls said. “We'll tell him that.”
     They arrived at school an hour later. The test was finished.
   “Why are you late?” the teacher asked. “You miss the test.” “Our taxi had a flat tire,” one of the girls said.
      The teacher thought for a moment, then he said, “Sit down, one of you in each corner of the room.” The four girls did this. Then the teacher said, “Write the answer to this question on a piece of paper: Which tire was flat?”

Dear Diary,

This year, I've set some resolutions to make the most out of my time.

* Get fit and active: I decide to follow a healthier lifestyle by eating more fruit and vegetables and working out regularly.

* Break free from screens: I will start limiting ( 限制) social media and having one tech- free day a week to keep in touch with the real world.

* Develop a new hobby: Time to step out of my comfort zone! Whether it's writing, painting or learning a musical instrument, I want to discover a new creative activity.

* Be more positive (积极乐观): I want to be more positive from now on. It might be a good idea to end the day by writing down three things I'm thankful for.

* Improve time management(管理): I want to be clearer how I spend my time. I' ll make achievable plans, prioritize (确定优先顺序) tasks and learn to say no when needed.

Dear Diary,

Let's check how well I've done with my resolutions.

* Get fit and active: Not doing great here. Exercise started strong, but it has become irregular. Healthy eating is no easy task. I need to push myself harder.

* Break free from screens: Surprisingly successful! I' ve cut down on mindless scrolling(刷手机), and the tech- free day has become a refreshing activity.

* Develop a new hobby: Halfway there. I picked up the guitar, and I'm in love with it. Though I'm still a beginner, the learning process is exciting.

* Be more positive:Mixed results. Some days, it's a joy to look back on the positive things, but there are moments when I forget. Need to set a fixed time for that each day.

* Improve time management: This one is a win! I've been using a planner to organize my days. It has helped me a lot in balancing school, hobbies and relaxation.

There's still room for improvement and I believe I will see better results!

According to the report, during the past summer vacation, a 15-year-old boy made a model plane on his own in less than a month. Then he flew it successfully, which surprised all the people around him.

The boy named Li Banghua is from Hefei, Anhui. He made the model plane by himself. It is 0.6 metres wide, has a wingspan (翼展) of 4.4 metres and weighs about 40 kilos. Li just finished his high-school entrance exam (入学考试) a year ago and got good grades. After the exam, he threw himself into the work of making the model plane at once.

Li has been interested in model planes since he was a child. And he has been studying and building model planes for years. This time the model plane is the largest he has ever built and he considers it the most successful one.

During the process (过程) of building the plane, he failed many times. "But the biggest difficulty I had was that the adults couldn't understand me well," Li said. "When I said I was going to build a model plane, a lot of adults thought it was impossible. But I decided to keep on working hard. That is because once I start something, giving up is not a choice for me."

When talking about his future, he said he dreamed of becoming a plane engineer.
