It seems more and more Americans want schools to teach foreign languages to children younger than five years old. The most popular way to teach these young children another language is called immersion(沉浸式语言教学法).
Children in immersion programs hear only the new language in the classroom. The children play games, sing songs and talk to one another in the new language. Some experts(专家)say immersion programs are the most effective(有效的)way for young children to learn a language. But there can be a problem when children in the United States begin to learn another language at such an early age. Not many elementary schools continue to teach a foreign language. Only seven of the fifty states require(要求)schools to teach a foreign language to students between the ages of six and twelve. Language experts say it is easier for younger children to learn a language. Still, American schools generally do not begin to teach foreign languages until secondary schools. By then, students are about thirteen years old.
American schools face difficult choices about the cost of educational programs. The government has increased support for foreign language study in its education law called No Child Left Behind.
At the college, the Modern Language Association says more students than ever are studying foreign languages and more languages are being studied now than in the past. Spanish is the most widely(广泛的)taught in American colleges and universities. French, German, Chinese and Italian are also popular.
The purpose of students who come to school is to study. But studying needs right ways, or we would waste the time or the money. The followings are ways for studying.
The best time for reading is morning. Because in the morning, the air is fresh and our minds are clear. For that reason, we can Set good results.
When we study we must be patient. If we don't understand a text well, we must read it again. We should not read the next until we have learned the first one well.
When we are studying, we must put our hearts into the book. We cannot read absent-mindedly(心不在焉地), or we could get nothing from the book while we are reading.
We must always ask "why". If we can't understand well, write it down and ask our teachers or parents brothers or friends, in any possible ways. We must know it completely and then our knowledge can be used well.
Though there are many ways for studying, however, the above mentioned(提到的)will be helpful if we can keep them in heart.
Many people ask me what my favorite invention is. I find it very hard to answer them, because there are so many things in my life that I can choose. However, I have chosen the pen. Don't you think it's surprising?
I know that to most people the pen is very boring, but, to me, it stands for possibility (可能). There are so many things you can do with a pen. You can write a novel or a song, record information, or draw a picture.
A pen is like the beginning of something amazing to me. Every day, I write a new page with my pen, and I am slowly making a path(路)for my future. Maybe I will be a scientist and change the world with my discoveries. Maybe I'll become a musician and touch people's hearts with my music. Or perhaps I will be a writer and move people through words, or a teacher to help children grow into the kind of people that they want to be.
There are so many possibilities as to what I will do with my life, but I know that with the pen in my hand, I will write a good future for myself. Tell me what future you will write for yourself.
You have been told to wash your hands many times a day to help stop the spread of the new coronavirus. But what about the mobile phone that you're always using? Scientific studies have shown that the virus can live for two to three days on smooth materials like plastic and stainless steel. Experts suggest cleaning all "high touch "surfaces every day, including phones, keyboards and computers. However, few people know how to do the cleaning. Here are some things not to do when cleaning the phone.
◆ Do not spray(喷)cleaners directly on the phone.
◆ Do not put the phone into any cleaning liquids(液体).
◆ Do not use tools that use forced air, which are often used to clean computer keyboards.
◆ Do not clean the phone with hard materials, they could make small cuts on it.
So, what is the right way? Below are some suggested ways to clean the phone. With any of these suggestions, be sure not to get the phone wet.
◆ Start by turning off the phone. Make sure the phone is not connected to the electricity.
◆ Use cleaning cloths with 70 percent alcohol (酒精) instead of the common ones.
◆ Use paper cloths, or other soft cloths like those use to clean the eyeglasses. It's OK to cover the cloths lightly in cleaners. But do remember to clean the phone "gently".
Cleaning the phone is one of the measures that are helpful to keep away from the new coronavirus. You should clean your own phone often and tell others the correct ways to do it.
I often hear some students (say) English is difficult, and it gives them a headache. So they can't learn it well. But English is very easy for me. I'm good at it. I'm very glad (tell) you something about how I study English.
First, I think an interest in English(be)very important. When I was in Grade One, we had a new subject-English. It was fresh for me. I was interested in it, so I worked hard at it. Soon we had an English exam and I (get)a very good mark. How happy I was! After that, I learned English harder and harder. And I also have a good habit: asking when ever I have a question I must make it clear by (ask)our English teacher.
Second, I think English is a foreign language. I should learn it well in the following ways: Listen to the teacher carefully, (speak)bravely, read aloud and have a good vocabulary. Then practice again and again never be tired. I think English (learn) well. Besides this, I often read English stories, jokes and easy novels. From these I know English is not only interesting, but also useful. They help me(understand) a lot of things. So to do more reading is an important way to learn English well.
And I also do some exercises from our class magazines, and I often write English diaries. English has become a close friend of mine.
Now I (learn) English for more than two years. I always keep the first position in our school. From these words, I hope every student ( learn) English well.

Do you want to visit Disney World? However, will you worry about your pet if you go to Disney World?To meet the needs of these people, a pet hotel has been built near the Disney World Resort in Florida.
The new pet hotel is named Best Friends Pet Care Resort and it is mainly open to dogs and cats. It has an area of 4, 645 m. About 270 dogs and 30 cats can be kept there at the same time. Besides dogs and cats, it can also provide services for birds, pigs and rabbits. However, it can,'t take care of snakes and turtles now.
Best Friends Pet Care Resort is a very expensive hotel. There are several types of dog rooms, such as rooms with air-conditioners and VIP rooms. There is even a "private dog park". Owners can have a high-quality vacation with their dogs there. The cats are kept in the "Kitty City".The "Kitty City" is very comfortable and clean. Workers there will clean it once a day.
