How did you learn it well?

This week, we asked the emerging high school students the best way to learn English. Many students say that they learn English by asking how to learn English. Some students have more specific suggestions. Lillian? For example, Li said that the best way to learn new words is by reading British magazines. She said that she remembered the lyrics of pop music songs, which also helped her a little. When we asked about learning grammar, she said, I haven't studied grammar. It's so boring. Wei Ming has different feelings. He has studied English for six years and really likes learning English. He thinks that learning grammar is an important way to learn a language. He also thinks it's a good idea to watch English movies, because he can watch actors talk. However, sometimes because people speak too fast, he finds the movies he watches frustrating. Liu Chang said that joining the school English club is the best way to improve English. The students got a lot of practice and they had a good time. She increased the conversation with her friends, but it was useless to use Chinese. She said.

How do I learn English?

Last year, my English was poor. First of all, it is not easy for me to understand what the teacher is saying. At first, she spoke so fast that I couldn't understand a word. Then I realized that if you don't understand every word, I'm still afraid to speak English in class because I think my classmates will laugh at me. I can never make a complete sentence. Then I began to watch English programs. This helps me a lot. I think listening practice is one of the ways to learn a language well. Besides, I found English grammar difficult, so I decided to take a lot of grammar notes in every class. Then I began to write my first sentence with the grammar I had learned. This great help is amazing. Now I like learning English, and I have passed this period. My teacher is very

My biggest problem

My biggest problem is being too busy. When I was young, I often had a lot of time, but these days I got up early and stayed at school all day. Then go straight home for dinner. Before I went to high school, I often spent a lot of time playing games with my friends, but I never had such time again. In the evening, I used to watch TV or chat with my grandmother, but now I have to study. I like music. My father used to take me to concerts. These days, I hardly have time to go to concerts. I do my homework and then go to bed. I really miss the old days.

If you answered C to most questions, you are probably confident. Social conditions will basically not hinder you. You know what you want and how to get it. Sometimes you may be angry with others because you are too confident.

A few days ago, my friend and I discussed some rules of our school. In our school, we must wear school uniforms every day. The problem is that all my classmates think school uniforms are too ugly. We think young people should be fashionable, so they should wear their own clothes. Our teacher thinks that if we do this, we will pay more attention to clothes than to study. We don't agree with this statement. We should feel more comfortable and study. If we really can't.

There is another problem here. Parents allow students to study in groups every night. I know sometimes we are noisy, but we really learn a lot from each other. We also think that holidays should be longer.

The holiday is too short now. The long vacation allows us to do some volunteer work. Last summer, I had the opportunity to volunteer in the hospital, but I didn't go because I had to go back to school. This is a good experience for me, because I want to be a doctor in the future.

If your answer to most questions is A, then you are extroverted and quite confident. You have many friends, and you like others as your partners. People will come to you when they need advice. Your friends may say that you are easy to get along with.

If the answer you choose most is B, you are probably an introvert. You prefer to talk to one or two people rather than a group of people. Similarly, you prefer to stay at home and read a good book rather than go to a party. You only have a small circle of good friends. Your friends may say that you are a good listener.

Dear Anna

If you know where it is, please call me.

I think I may have lost it at the concert, so it may still be in the symphony hall.

I called you, but your mother said you were still with the ophthalmologist (I hope your new glasses look good)

Because I have an English exam tomorrow, I really need it. I prepare for the exam because its score accounts for 30% of the final exam.

I am in a hurry because I can't find my schoolbag.

Thank you, Linda.

Strange events near the drum tower

Our neighbors used to be very quiet. However, strange things have happened near our home these days, and everyone is very uncomfortable. Zhou Gu, a teacher in a local school, is quite worried. In an interview with the local newspaper, he said, "Every night we hear strange noises outside the window. My wife thinks it may be an animal, but my friends and I think it must be a teenage prank. My parents have called the police.

Zhou's neighbors are also very uncomfortable. "At first, I thought it might be a dog. I didn't see a dog, but I still heard the noise outside." Everyone in our neighborhood is worried. Everyone has his or her ideas. There must be something around here, but what is it?

Yellow river fishermen

This is Hong Tao's latest film. I like Hong Tao. Some of his great films have been developed over the years. Unfortunately, this is the worst movie. If you want to have fun and watch TV at home, yellow river fisherman is too long and really boring. It has several advantages, but I think the fisherman's wife is really interesting.

Chen Lijin, photography

Be sure to see this exhibition at Lido Gallery. Chen Lijin is one of the most famous photographers in China. In today's world, some of her favorite photos are on display. She really owns everyone in this exhibition. There are many wonderful pictures, photos of people's countryside and several cities, all of which are so successful. I am interested in seeing the same things, but I am not interested in them every day. However, this is a good program from a world-class photographer.

Over the years, we have seen all kinds of strange music group names, and we are free to come and go. Several names are stranger than this band. As the name suggests, this band is very energetic. They play similar music, which I like to listen to. Every song is very loud. You often don't understand it, but it's good because the lyrics are not very good. However, these musicians make us very happy, even on Monday morning!

Why don't you consider traveling to Paris for your next holiday? Paris is the capital of France and one of the most dynamic cities in Europe. It doesn't have any rivers or mountains, but there are still many things to do here. For example, it has some strange attractions, including the Eiffel Tower and NDC, one of the most famous churches in the world.

Traveling by taxi in Paris will cost a lot of money, but usually you can go to many places by subway. On the whole, although Paris is a very expensive place. But one thing is not expensive in France, and that is wine!

In Paris, most people study English, but many people can't speak English. So unless you can speak French yourself, you'd better travel with someone who can translate for you!

This summer, my family and I want to spend our holidays in the south of China. I hope you can give me some advice on the holidays that your company can offer. We want to go to an exciting place, and we don't recommend going far. This must be a place where we can do many outdoor activities. We like hiking and swimming. But any exercise is good. We need a cheap hotel or apartment. Better give me a house with a kitchen. In this way, we can cook for ourselves and save money. This house should be big enough for three people. We are going to live in a place with a swimming pool or near the sea. Can you give me some advice? Please tell us whether it is best to fly, train or bus. We will be away for three weeks.

Thank you very much.

Last week, everyone tried to cheer up Jimmy, the bike boy. But this week, Jimmy is happy again. On Monday, he told a radio interviewer that he had no money to buy an old bike. He also posted some leaflets to collect old bicycles and called all his friends to tell them his problems. He even distributed advertisements in a local supermarket. Then he told his problems to the school teachers, so they set up a hotline for parents. The method he thought of worked well. Now he has sixteen bicycles to be repaired, and then he gives them to children who don't have bicycles.

Who invented tea?

Do you know that tea, the most popular drink in the world (next to water), was invented by accident? Although tea was not introduced to the western world until 16 10, this drink was discovered more than 3000 years before that. According to an ancient legend in China, Emperor Shennong discovered tea while boiling water on an outdoor fire. The leaves of some trees nearby fell into the water and boiled for a long time. The emperor noticed that the leaves in the water gave off a good smell. Later, he decided to try this hot mixture. It is delicious. In this way, one of the most popular drinks in the world was invented.

1938, a radio program hosted by actor orson welles announced that aliens from Mars had landed on the earth. He described where they landed and told people how they swept across America. Wells' words were so convincing that hundreds of people believed the story, and the whole country fell into panic. Thousands of people had fled their homes when the authorities revealed that the story was a hoax.

One April Fool's Day, a British journalist announced that there would be no more spaghetti to eat, because Italian farmers had stopped planting plants that produced spaghetti. Many people go to the local supermarket to buy as much spaghetti as possible. When people realized that the story was a scam, all the spaghetti in this country was sold out.

Once, a famous TV star invited his girlfriend to a performance on April Fool's Day. He proposed to her. She is very excited because she really wants to get married. However, when she said "yes", he replied: "Happy April Fool's Day!" That little joke didn't end happily. The TV star lost his girlfriend and ruined his program.

They are all in the mall.

After school, many students go to the shopping center. We decided to talk to the students about the reason why they went there.

Reporter: Why did you go to the mall?

Yu Yue: I went to the market because my friends were hanging out there. But I really don't like it there.

Reporter: Oh, why?

Yu Yue: The air is not fresh. I prefer being outside. Besides, shopping centers are usually crowded.

Reporter: What about you?

Li Jun: Oh, I like shopping centers. There are always accidents there. There are many free concerts there. Besides, looking at people is very interesting.

Hu Peng: I like shopping centers, too. I like listening to CDs in shops with music. I also like reading in the bookstore.

Dear Laura:

Thank you for your letter. Yes, I like my exchange program in France. It's better than I expected. I was a little worried before I went, but now I'm not worried at all. The family that received me was very friendly. They made me feel at home in their own way. You won't believe how fast my French has improved! I can speak French very freely now. Although I still make some mistakes, none of them will affect my application of French. My biggest challenge is how to behave properly at the dinner table. As you can imagine, these manners are very different from those in our hometown. For example, you can't put bread on a plate. You should put the bread on the table! At first I thought it was strange to do so, but now I'm used to it. Also, you can't eat anything other than bread with your hands, even fruit! You must cut the fruit and eat it with a fork. Another thing that will be considered impolite is that when you feel full, if you can't eat any more food, you should say, "The food is delicious." Similarly, it is very impolite to put your hands on your knees. You should always keep your hands on the table, not your knuckles. What I want to say is that I find it very difficult to remember all this, but I am used to it and no longer feel strange. I will write to you as soon as possible and tell you about my life in France. I hope you can have a good school year.

The science of restaurants

Restaurant owners must know how to cook food. They also need to know how to make money. There are some scientific knowledge that they should learn. Red makes people hungry. Red can also make customers eat fast. Many restaurants use red furniture and walls. Soft colors such as pink and light blue make people relaxed, so they spend a lot of time eating their meals. Soft lighting makes people look good, but it makes food look bad. Loud music was good at first, but soon people wanted to leave. Hard benches will also make customers want to eat quickly before leaving. Many restaurants, especially fast food restaurants, use science to make people eat faster. The customer left after only 20 minutes. Because customers don't stay long, small restaurants can be crowded with many people every day.

Advertising: Advantages and Disadvantages

Now advertisements are everywhere! Some people think advertisements are great. Others don't like advertisements. They say: Advertisements make our cities and villages look ugly. Many advertisements are aimed at teenagers, and some teenagers can watch them every day. The advertisements exceed 100. There is no doubt that some advertisements are beneficial. For example, those advertisements can help you compare two different products and let you get the product that Minnie really needs. Those advertisements can also help you save money. As soon as the price is listed, you can go shopping in the store with the lowest price. Advertising can also tell you when the store will cut prices. However, some advertisements can also confuse or mislead people. Those advertisements sound great, but they don't really tell you anything about the quality of the products. At other times, the products of advertising pictures are much better than the actual products. So you must be careful, sometimes an advertisement will make you buy something you don't need at all.

3a- Hello Editor-in-Chief:

The purpose of writing this letter is that I am against building a new zoo in the city center. The zoo is a terrible habitat for animals. I have visited many zoos, none of which I like, or none of which is suitable for animals to live in. I just visited a zoo last week. I can't believe what I saw at the zoo. Animals are kept in a small place, it is almost difficult to move, and they are only fed once a day. Is this a good living condition for animals? I don't think so.

3 B- Hello Editor-in-Chief:

I visited our zoo yesterday, and I was surprised to find that there were very few people. The zoo is a very important place. Zoos are like acquiring textbook knowledge for young people. Zoos can provide shelters for endangered animals and educate people to take good care of them. If we don't support our zoo, it won't have enough money to take care of animals. I encourage all our readers to visit our beautiful zoo.

A house built of waste materials.

You may never have heard of Amy Winterbourne, but she is really an amazing woman. She lives in a house she built. Oh, these things used to be called garbage, but now they are called "recycled" materials. The windows and doors of some old buildings around the town have been removed. This wall is made up of some old glass bottles glued together. The roof is made of discarded tiles.

The fence is made of used soda cans. Amy recently won an award from the association for saving our planet. President Jackson Smith said, "Amy inspires all of us."

What does Amy do in her free time? She used old televisions as toy models and sold them to raise money for children's hospitals.
