Freshman year of high school is a big transition (过渡) for any student.
Luckily, you're not the only person going through this, and plenty of others have made the transition before you too.
One of the ways in which high school is different from middle school or junior high the most is the higher expectations. You'll find that you're expected to keep closer track of your own schedule and responsibilities with fewer people checking up on you. At the same time, your classes are likely to become more challenging, and you might be participating in new school activities as well.
Some students find it hard to keep up with everything at first, which is totally normal. One way to prepare in advance: for these higher expectations is to make sure that you have organized schedules in place before you start high school.
Another important skill for meeting these higher expectations is building a strong support network. No matter how strong a student you are, at some point you will need some help. Keeping healthy relationships with your friends and teachers is a great way to make sure that you have people who are willing to help when you need them.
Try to get to, know at least some of your teachers beyond your classroom communication. Be an active learner during class and stay after class to ask questions. Take advantage of email or class messaging systems. The better your teachers know you, the better prepared they'll be to help when you need them.
It's important for you to keep in mind as you start high school that no one is perfect. Transitions are hard for everyone, and starting high school is a big transition. These challenges provide a great chance to reinvent yourself.
On the first day of fourth grade, my teacher, Mrs. Brown, told my class a story about her husband Rob, who is a brain cancer survivor. After what Mrs. Brown experienced with Robs' illness, she decided to devote part of her life to an organization called Be head Strong, which works to support families with a member suffering from brain cancer.
Along with typical math and science, throughout the year, Mrs. Brown shared stories with us about people in Be Head Strong who had overcome some tough and unfair battles. Mrs. Brown never showed any sadness or confusion toward the disease. She instead spoke only with words of determination to find a cure. Whether news from Be Head Strong was good or bad, she always looked at the situation as an opportunity to improve and do more.
My parents taught me from a very young age that making wise choices with my money is important. I would always set aside most of my $
2.50-a-week allowance. By the end of the school year, I had saved over one hundred dollars, $
131.30 to be exact. One day was wondering what to do with it. I did not feel like any game or toy was worth the time I had spent saving. I thought about the stories Mrs. Brown told us, then I decided that was where I wanted my money to go.
As the last day of school approached, my mom helped me wrap the heart-shaped box full of dollars and coins. After all the other kids had left on the last day of school, I handed Mrs. Brown the present. As she opened it, I told her that I wanted the money to go to Be Head Strong to help people like Rob. She broke into tears and hugged me tightly.
People may not always realize how big of an influence one kind gesture can make One teacher encouraged a decision in my life that has changed the way how I live.
Shanghai residents （居民） passing through the city's eastern Huangpu district earlier this month might have discovered an unusual sight a "walking" building.
An 85-year-old primary school has been lifted off the ground in its entirety and relocated using new technology named the "walking" machine.
In the city's latest effort to protect historic structures, engineers used nearly 200 mobile supports under the five-story building, according to Lan Wuji, chief technical supervisor of the project.
The supports act like robotic legs. They're split into two groups which in turns rise up and down, like the human step. The sensors （感应器）help control how the building moves forward, said Lan.
In recent years, China's rapid modernization has seen many historic buildings destroyed to clear land for skyscrapers and office buildings. But there has been growing concern about the architectural heritage （遗产）loss as a result of destruction across the country.
It is true Shanghai has been China's most progressive city when it comes to heritage preservation. The survival of a number of 1930s buildings in the famous bund district and 19th-century "shikumen"（or "stone gate"） houses in the repaired Xintiandi neighborhood has offered examples of how to give old buildings new life.
The city also has a track record of relocating old buildings. In 2018, the city relocated a 90-year-old building in Hongkou district, which was then considered to be Shanghai's most complex relocation project to date.
The Lagena Primary School, which weighs 7, 600 tons, faced a new challenge-it's T-shaped, while previously relocated structures were square or rectangular（长方形的）, according to Xinhua.
Experts and technicians met to discuss possibilities and test a number of different technologies before deciding on the "walking machine", Xinhua said.
When most people think of rodents(啮齿动物), they either think of pests like mice and rats, or cute animals, like guinea pigs or squirrels. What does not usually come to mind is the grass-chewing, water-loving, dog- sized capybara (水豚). Weighing up to 66 kilograms, the capybara is the world's largest rodent. And that might be the least interesting thing about this wonderful animal.
Native to South America, capybaras are found in grasslands near lakes or rivers. They are excellent swimmers and spend much of their time in the water. They have webs between their toes to help them swim even better. Moreover, the position of their eyes, ears, and noses on the tops of their heads helps them fully dive in the water to hide from predators (捕食者). They love the water, and they can even sleep underwater, with only their noses above the surface.
Like many other rodents, capybaras live in large social groups. What's unusual, however, is how friendly capybaras are with other animal species. The internet is full of images showing smaller animals sitting on capybaras. But despite these giant rodents' social natures and cuteness, they don't make very good pets. They can be territorial(有地盘意识的) with larger animals, and they have been known to bite humans when they feel threatened.
Capybaras continue to lose some of their cuteness when one takes a look at their diet. Their main food is grass, but like many grass-eating animals, they are not able to fully take in their meal the first time it passes through their digestive system(消化系统). So, capybaras frequently eat their own droppings to get additional nutrients from previous meals. There are lots of reasons to love capybaras, but this probably isn't one of them.
Diets aren't the way to go when it comes to losing weight. Most dieters gain back any lost weight when they go back to their old eating habits. Weight loss is most likely to be successful when people change their habits. Here are some ways to make that happen:
•Exercise. Regular physical activity burns calories and builds muscle — both of which help you look and feel good and keep weight off. Walking the family dog, cycling to school, and doing other things can all make a difference. If you want to burn more calories, increase the intensity of your workout and add some strength exercises to build muscle.
• People who spend a lot of time watching TV, playing video games, and using computers are more likely to be overweight. Set reasonable limits on the amount of such time you spend.
•Eat 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Fruits and vegetables are about more than just vitamins and minerals. This means they fill you up. And when you fill up on fruits and veggies, you're less likely to overeat.
•Don't skip breakfast. Breakfast starts your metabolism(新陈代谢), burning calories from the beginning of the day and giving you energy to do more during the day. People who skip breakfast often feel so hungry that they eat more later on. In fact, people who skip breakfast tend to have higher BMIs(体重质量指数) than people who eat breakfast.
A. Set realistic goals.
B. Reduce screen time.
C. They're also rich in fiber(食物纤维).
D. So what's the best way to drop extra weight?
E. The more muscle you have, the more calories you burn.
F. Thus they get more calories than they would have if they ate breakfast.
G. So choose smaller portions and go for water or low-fat milk instead of soda.
15 years ago when I was playing basketball in one of Australia's premier basketball leagues, I remember a sports psychologist we had for the season. As young professional athletes with highegos (自我价值感), the team were not quite convinced the techniques of psychology would1 performance, especially when it didn't involve using the physical strength and endurance needed to2 the weeks of training and games. I,3 , was interested.
We were trained in a visualization technique used before games. It involved moving ourselves into a meditative (冥想的) state and taking ourselves on a journey into the 4 to recreate the experience of a game, From 5 home, getting to the stadium, being in the change room, walking out onto the 6 and then finally visualizing how we would play and see ourselves 7 . The most important part of the 8 was to bring to life the vivid details of each stage, while also focusing on the 9 that came with it. We were trained to 10 fear, doubt and learned to go beyond them, so that by the time we got onto the court, we were grounded, 11 and ready to play.
What I learnt most from this technique was that winning games was important but how we 12 to play was even more vital. And 13 visualization was a powerful way to see through to the 14 , there were absolutely no 15 in the hard work of getting there.
Each year, on the 15th day of the seventh month in the Chinese lunar calendar, the Ghost Festival is celebrated all over Asia. On this day, it (believe) that the gates of Heaven and Hell open up, (allow) the spirits of all the dead to visit the Earth. During this time, people will burn offerings (祭品) and prepare fancy meals (pay) respect to the dead.
Similar holidays are celebrated all around the world. However, these holidays tend to be less gloomy (阴郁的) Chinese holidays. In the Western world, Halloween, Oct 31 every year, is mainly celebrated by (light) pumpkin lanterns and dressing up in costumes (服装). It is considered a time to remember and honor the dead. The Day of the Dead is celebrated in Mexico on Nov.1&2 each year. People will build altars (祭坛) at home and decorate them with candles, flowers, skulls (骷髅头) and gifts. Around the altar, people pray and tell stories about the dead. This holiday is also (joy). In some public areas, there are even parties at night.
Death is a (frighten) thing. But holidays like these can help us to better understand death as a natural part of life, can remind us to value our own time on Earth and encourage us to live our best (life).
