Note-taking is a skill(技能) that can help you do well in all your schoolwork. It can make you confident when you are studying. But unluckily, most students don't know how to take notes. Here is some advice:
＊Write down key facts. If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, that's great. You can copy(记下) them or write down the most important facts of all in class. Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may focus on (关注) lots of dates and facts in class, but they only write the important ones on the blackboard. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may say something important again and again.
＊Ask. Don't be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat(重复) what you miss. If your teacher speaks too fast and you can’t follow what he/she is saying, you can ask him/her after class.
＊Compare. Comparing your notes with your classmates' can be good for your learning. It can also help you and your classmates correct some mistakes.
＊Organise(组织). Note-taking also needs organization. Keep notes for each subject in one notebook, so that you can find everything easily when a test comes.
＊Good note-taking takes time. If you decide to recopy(重新抄写) your notes every evening, you'll surely have less time to watch TV. But you'll save time in the coming test.

【推荐1】In the fight against the new coronavirus, Chinese people have come up with creative (创新的) solutions (解决办法) to different problems. They have shown their wisdom (智慧) during hard times.
All for masks
During the outbreak, medical supplies (供应) such as masks are needed by many. To increase (增加) production, over 3,000 Chinese companies have changed their production lines (生产线) to make medical equipment. For example, a company that used to make clothes spent 55 hours changing their production lines and is now able to make 1,200 protective medical suits (医疗防护服) every day. Several automakers (汽车制造商) in China have also turned their production lines into mask-making lines. Guangzhou Automobile is now able to make 1 million masks per day.
Sharing employees
The idea of“sharing workers (共享员工)”has become popular during the outbreak. As most people are staying at home, many workers in restaurants, cinemas and shopping malls have no work and are not getting paid. Meanwhile, online orders of groceries (食品杂货) and medical supplies grow, leaving e-business platforms (平台) such as JD.com and Freshhema shorthanded (人手短缺). As a result, many unemployed people have started to look for part-time jobs. As of Feb 10, over 1,800 workers had started their new short-term jobs as delivery (送货) workers with Freshhema, Xinhua reported. The local government of the Shanghai Pudong New District even set up a platform for workers and companies to find each other.
Amazing speed
In cities like Wuhan that have large numbers of infected (被感染的) people, more hospital beds are needed. The quickest way to solve this problem is to build makeshift (临时的) hospitals.
On Jan 23 and 25, respectively (分别地), the government decided to build Huoshenshan Hospital and Leishenshan Hospital in Wuhan. More than 4,000 workers worked 24/7 in two shifts (轮班), and nearly 1,000 pieces of large equipment and transport vehicles (运输车辆) helped them build the hospitals.
Within less than 15 days, the two hospitals were finished. They provide about 2,600 beds. The amazing speed impressed many people around the world.
“China has a record of getting things done fast even for monumental projects (大型项目) like this,” said Yanzhong Huang, a senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations.
“This is very hard for Westerners to imagine,” Huang added.

Some people feel lonely because they may not have enough time to make friends. Not only the quiet, shy people may feel lonely. Some people are active and outgoing, but they are sometimes afraid to talk and make friends with others. They always try to hold other people away from them. They may seem to have lots of friends, but inside they are hurting.
Are you lonely? If your answer is “yes”, you may need to work hard enough! Here are some tips to think about:
To be wanted and needed is a big answer to loneliness. Is there any way you can help other people? Try to do something helpful for others even if you are very busy. By helping other people, we find friends and lose loneliness.
Do you have an interest or hobby? Find a group of people with this interest and join them.
Live in the real world! The world on the Internet is not a real world and it is very different from the real life. The students asleep in class are mostly those who often surf the net through the night. As a result, they’ll get lost in the real world.
Don’t wait for someone to phone, or write, or email you, you call them. And if they seem too busy, it doesn’t mean you are not welcome. Try another time!
When you’ve done anything wrong to other people, don’t be too proud to say sorry. You must do that even if you find it hard to open your mouth.

【推荐1】Parents can be very important teachers in our lives. However, they are not always the best teachers. Parents may be too close to their children emotionally (感情上). Sometimes they can only see their children through the eyes of a protector (保护者). For example, a teacher might see a trip to a big city as a valuable experience. However, it might seem too dangerous to a parent.
Another problem is that parents may expect their children’s interests to be similar to their own. If they love science, they may try to force (强迫) their child to love science too. But what will happen if their child’s true love is art, or writing, or car repair?
Parents usually want to pass on their values to their children. But should children always believe what their parents do? When children are young, they believe that their parents are always right. But when they get older, they will have different ways of thinking.
The most important thing to realize is that we all have many teachers in our lives. Our parents teach us, our teachers teach us, and our friends teach us. Books and newspapers and televisions also teach us. All of them are valuable.

【推荐2】Salmon (三文鱼) hamburgers and salmon sandwiches are on the school lunch menu (菜单) in Sitka, Alaska now. The salmon comes from fishing in the area. This is thanks to Sitka’s Fish to Schools program (项目). It brings fresh fish to the school.
“Fish is part of our life,” Tad Fujioka said. He is a fisherman in Sitka. He gives 50 to 100 pounds of fish each year to the program for free. “Around here, we know how to cook fish.” Fujioka has two daughters. They are Alexandra, 10, and Mari Frances, 6. Both girls go to school in Sitka. So they get to enjoy fresh fish for lunch. “It’s pretty delicious,” Alexandra said.
Alexandra and her friends also learn about fish in the classroom. That’s also a part of the Fish to Schools program. They study the salmon life. Sitka isn’t the only place with a Fish to Schools program. The city of Dillingham, Alaska has a Salmon to Schools program, too.
Many U.S. schools are working to add some local foods to the menu. More schools are teaching about healthy eating, too. “School lunch doesn’t have to be the same everywhere in the country,” Fujioka said. “If you want children to eat different kinds of foods, you should put the kinds of foods on their menus.”

【推荐1】Feng Bangli came down with a fever at the end of January. He worried that he might have been infected (感染) by the novel coronavirus. Due to (由于) a lack of beds and medical supplies in hospitals at that time, he had to stay at home and take medicine on his own.
Luckily, about a week later, Feng was sent to a makeshift hospital (方舱医院) for treatment.
“Without such makeshift hospitals, many COVID-19 patients like me may never have found a bed,” Feng told China Daily. He has recovered and been away from Wuchang makeshift hospital which is for treating COVID-19 patients.
To deal with the novel coronavirus outbreak, China started to build makeshift hospitals on Feb. 3 in Wuhan. Two days later, Wuchang makeshift hospital was the first to receive patients. In total, Wuhan built 15 makeshift hospitals. They were built in exhibition halls, sports stadiums and so on. These hospitals allowed more than 12,000 COVID-19 patients with mild symptoms (轻症) to receive treatment and care.
Building makeshift hospitals provides a new way for us to manage with major public health emergencies as we quickly organize and expand (扩大) medical resources,” said Ma Xiaowei, minister of the National Health Commission.
Similar hospitals are being built worldwide as other countries fight the virus. New York has finished setting up a makeshift hospital in the Javits Convention Center. The 1,000-bed hospital started receiving patients at the beginning of April. London is changing Excel London, a major convention center, into a makeshift hospital.

【推荐2】Have you ever tried Shaxian Snacks（沙县小吃）? You may find Shaxian Snacks restaurants in nearly every Chinese city. But now the popular restaurant chain（连锁店）is going overseas（海外）.
Two months ago, Shaxian Snacks opened its first store in the United States. The store is in New York City. It was so popular that all of its food was sold out within three hours on the first day when it was open.
Shaxian Snacks come from Shaxian County in Fujan Province. Many local people left the county in past years to work in other parts of China. And of course, they brought their food with them. Shaxian Snacks sells local food from Shaxian, such as peanut butter noodles（花生酱拌面）and pork wontons（猪肉馄饨）. There are many dishes to choose from. Some are traditional, while others are new. But the thing they have in common is that none of them is expensive. That might be why they are so popular.

【推荐3】Amazon rainforest is the largest rainforest. But a new study shows it may become grassland in a few years. Climate change and human activities make it “sick”. Usually, the rainforest can fix itself, but now it feels too “tired” to get better.
Why is the Amazon rainforest “sick”?
The Amazon rainforest is one of the world’s wettest places. Since 2005, three droughts have hit the rainforest. They were caused by climate change. The trees don’t have enough water to grow. What’s worse, as they become dry, they can easily catch fire!
On top of this, people cut down rainforest trees for wood. They burn the forest to make farmland. They clear trees to find minerals. All these activities have caused about 17% of the rain forest to disappear.
What will happen if we lose it?
The Amazon rainforest is like the lungs of our planet. The rich planet take CO₂ out of the air and make O₂. They make about 20% of the planet’s O₂. If the Amazon forest “dies”, there will be more CO₂ and our earth will become even hotter.
The Amazon rainforest is also home to over 3 million animals and plants. Many of them can’t live anywhere else. Perhaps they would disappear.

Mr. Clarke lives at the foot of the mountain. He keeps the forest for a rich farmer there. The only road to the forest is just in front of his house. He can easily see the people who want to enter the forest. Sometimes he has to be on duty at night. When he hears some sound, he has to get up to see if someone cuts the trees.
One day he bought something in the town. He found a strong dog and bought it. He loves it very much and often gives some meat or bread to it. And when a strange man walks close to his house, it barks(吠) loudly. So he can soon know about it and goes out to find out who it is. But last week something was wrong with Mr. Clarke. He didn’t feel well and couldn’t fall asleep in the evening. He had to go to a hospital in the town. The doctor looked him over and then asked, “Have you got a dog, sir ”
“Yes, I have got one.”
“You have got a skin disease(皮肤病),” said the doctor. “I am sure your dog infected(传染) it to you. You can’t come in touch(接触) with it any longer.”
When he came out of the hospital, he met a friend and told him about it. The man asked, “What are you going to do, to sell your dog or to give it to another man ”
