A few days ago, I got a call from an old friend of mine. We 1 our school and the good old days. Then, he started talking about his father.
His father was badly ill in hospital. He 2 sleep at night and often talked to himself. My friend was 3 about this and shouted at his father to stop talking. But after stopping 4, his father fell unconscious(不省人事的). My friend was very sad. He thought it was his fault(过错). My friend was so sad that he 5 like a baby on the telephone. He said he would do 6 if his father could wake up.
Some kids often feel unhappy when they have to take care of their 7. But do you know that our parents take care of us 8 stay with us for our lifetime?
My dear friends, from now on, 9 say a bad word to your parents. Take care of them and stay with them. Even if it only 10 you a second, you parents will be happy to be with you! Do you agree with me?
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Smith,
I am writing to thank you for looking after me so well when I came to stay with you in England. You made me feel like part of the family. I felt I was Ann's sister, although I was just her friend from Singapore. I had a good time when I was in England. We visited many different places and took lots of photos. My mother has kept all the postcards I sent to her. I am going to put them on the bookshelf with some of the photos.
The journey I went home was very relaxing, and the long flight seemed to pass more quickly than usual, thanks to the book Harry Potter Ann gave me to read on the plane. My parents were pleased to see me, and said that they missed me a lot. We will have a busy time soon, as we are moving house next month. I have given Ann my new address, and I hope she will be able to come and stay with us next summer.
I must finish now, because my father is going to the shopping center and he said he would post this letter for me while he is there.
Best wishes,
Kate.
Many Chinese students ask for advice on how to improve(提高) their English. There are three common questions.
The first question is about real English. Li Gang said, "I want to learn real English. But I don't know what to do."
Watching English films is a good way to learn real English. You can watch them when you are tired after studying for a long time. While watching them, you can relax and learn real English at the same time.
The second question is about speaking. Chen Ming said, "I'm too shy to talk with foreigners."
"How are you?" "Where are you from?" "What do you think of China?" These are good questions to start a conversation. Many people are shy when they speak English, so before you begin, take a deep breath(呼吸) and smile! Smiling always helps.
The third question is about vocabulary. Li Jia said, "I want to remember all the new words. I write them down, but I forget them soon."
Try to remember eight or ten words a day. Write them on a piece of paper and put it in your bedroom. Spell the words whenever you see them, and change them every day. And when you're shopping, how about counting the English words, or saying the English names for everything you see?
As students, you may have many dreams. They can be very big like becoming Superman, or they can be small. You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class.
If you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream come true? Follow Your Heart by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that making our dreams come true is life's biggest challenge.
"You may think you're not very good at some school subjects, or that it is impossible (不可能) for you to become a star. These ideas stop you from realizing your dream," the book says.
In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first important thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.
Don't let it leave your heart (心). Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step (一步一步地) and your dream will come true faster. A big dream is, in fact, many small dreams.
Never give up (放弃) your dream. There will be difficulties on the road. But the biggest problem comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of (代替) watching TV will bring you better exam points. Saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book. When you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. Then you will be able to learn more skills and find new interests.
