Schools in the UK are quite different from those in China. In the UK, at the beginning of the term, students must select their courses and teachers first.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#} So in the first term, don't select too many courses, or you'll feel nervous and it may influence your study. Then you have to ask for some teaching plans. There is some information about subjects, time arranging, marks and textbooks. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Different teachers have different teaching methods.

Lots of students are too busy to help out with housework. So, many parents want to know if they should let their children do chores. Well, there's no need to worry. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

First, doing chores helps children learn to be independent. Parents can't stay by their children's side all the time. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} And these skills will help them be ready for the day when they go to college or take care of their own houses. 

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}When children finish a chore，they will not only take pride in（感到自豪）a job well done but also have confidence in their ability to do things well. 

Third, doing chores makes it possible for children to develop good relationships with their family, friends and partners. Doing chores together with family can make children care more about their family. And they begin to learn their responsibility in a family or a group. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}They will know that if they work together as a team, things will be finished more quickly and better.

How to be a responsible student?

As teenagers, we are the future of our country and we need to be responsible.

Glass frogs （玻璃蛙） are not really made of glass，but their skin is transparent，just like glass.In fact，the skin on the underside （底部） of a glass frog is so transparent that you can see the inside of its body.Without using an instrument （仪器），you can see the frog's heart and other organs（器官）.Sometimes you can even see the food moving through the body.

These unusual﹣looking frogs can be difficult to find in the rain forests of Central and South America.The skin on their fronts and the green color of their backs often blend in （融入） with the leaves（叶子） they rest on.Also，they are just about the size of a coin.

These frogs have an interesting way of catching insects.Scientists believe the glass frog's back looks like the frog's eggs.If a fly （苍蝇） flies down for a meal on a frog's back，it will be in for a surprise when the glass frog opens its mouth.

The male glass frog protects （保护）real eggs.To keep away unwanted animals，a male glass frog will try to drive away other animals if they get too close.At first.the male frog makes loud noises to warn （警告） other animals to leave the area.If that does not work，the frog may fight with other animals until they give up and leave.

The city walk is originated (起源) from London. It can be a special trip for a small group of people, or just for one or two people to look for new places, following the key point: keep away from famous sights and crowds.

How can you learn about a city? City walk might be a great choice. City walkers follow some routes (路线) on different topics. Along the way, they watch, take photos, listen to the guide and take part in fun activities.
