First of all, you should make your own learning plan with a study calendar. Then, you’d better make a good preparation before each class—your textbook and notebook, a quiet room and a clean desk are also important. Third, please watch the screen in class all the time, be active to think what teacher says and how to answer teacher’s questions, write down the key points in your notebook. Finally, if you want a good result of learning online, make sure to go over what you learned online.

No matter where you go, no matter what you do, when you are in public places, you have to be in good manners. How should we behave in public places?
Keep your voice down
Don’t speak or laugh loudly. Remember that although you may be excited and want to voice your excitement, the people around you may not be interested in it at all. It’s polite to speak at a low volume(音量). This includes laughing as well.
Dress properly
Dress in a way that is appropriate(适合的) for the place that you are going to. If you are going to an event where people dress formally, do the same. For example, do not wear blue jeans or T-shirt to a dinner party. But it is acceptable to dress casually if you are going to a museum or a movie theater.
Use table manners
When you eat in public places, use your table manners. They may help you leave a good impression. In western countries, do not pick up food with your hands. You should pick up with a fork or a spoon. When you are in China, you shouldn’t start eating first if there are older people at the table. Using your phone while having a meal is also bad behavior.

Now students’ English handwriting gets worse and worse. That makes their teachers feel worried. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If not, here are four steps that really work!
◆Use paper that has lines (线)
Using paper that has lines can keep you writing straight when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size. Be sure to fill the lined space fully. And make sure those capital letters (大写字母) are written properly.
◆Slow down
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going slower makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes (错误).
◆Hold (握住) your pencil right
When you hold your pencil the right way, writing is much easier. Some kids press (压) down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to relax yourself and don’t hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing look nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with a good habit.
◆Draw more pictures
Drawing can make your handwriting better. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better when you are drawing pictures. Even though you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by yourself at home.
Handwriting is very important. Imagine you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your fans run up to you? Give them your autographs (亲笔签名), of course!

We are living in the same world. We like it very much. All of us hope it can be better. Here are some tips for a better world.
Don’t post pictures.
Many parents post pictures of their children on social media. I sometimes think this is a bit embarrassing (尴尬的) or even dangerous. If the wrong people see the information on the pictures, it could cause trouble. Luckily, I’m glad social media wasn’t around when I was young!
Less roadside vendors!
On my way home after school, I often see roadside vendors (路边摊贩) selling food. Many students and adults buy their food because it is cheap and delicious. But I think these vendors and their food do harm to both our environment and health. They leave rubbish everywhere and it is smelly.
No fire, please!
The other day, I saw some students playing with matches (火柴) and making a fire. This is very dangerous! You might think matches are small and can’t cause trouble. But even a little spark (火星) can cause a big fire-burning down buildings and forests. Tragedies (悲剧) like this happen every year. We should use fire carefully and stay away from it when we can.
5.________
In our school, students do class chores (值周) from Monday to Friday. We clean the floors and blackboards. So we’re often left with a big bag of rubbish in the hallway. Some people throw it into the rubbish bin. But they sometimes aren’t careful about it and rubbish may be left on the ground. So we should go closer to the rubbish bin to make sure that all the rubbish is thrown away in a correct way. It may seem like a small step, but it’s important.
1. Why is it dangerous to post pictures of children on social media?2. Which phrase can replace the underlined one?
3. Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.
4. List the ways for a better world. (at least two)
5. Choose a proper title to the last two paragraphs.
| A．Do class chores! | B．Throw away trash! | C．Go closer to the trash bin! |
If you want to become a good writer, read good writing. Unluckily, you may not have understood what did good to you and even what you wanted to get from that experience.
As you start reading a book, poem, or story, do it with no thought at all and the experience will make your writing better. Just read for pleasure to begin with, not to learn. As you progress through his work, think about whether or not it is “easy” reading. Do you become so interested in the subject and flow of the writing that you completely forget the person who wrote it, or does the article sometimes call too much attention to itself through words and sentences that seem out of place or unexpected? These latter (后者) situations are a chance to learn from the writer’s mistakes. In fact, the reader should not have to worry about how a writer does “his thing”... He should be able to just enjoy and learn. Every time you think of a wrong or improper word, stop to think about why it has this effect (影响). Also, do not spend a lot of time analyzing (分析) the passage but enjoy it from the whole.
As you can see, there is no one simple way of reading to get your writing improved. The key is not to make it boring. Choose writers you admire or like most, and enjoy their works as anyone else would. As long as (只要) you are reading, you are improving yourself as a writer.
| Facts | Some people don’t understand the advantages of reading or what to get from reading. |
| Read not to learn but for pleasure in the beginning. Develop a great Learn from the writer’s mistakes if possible. | |
| Conclusion(结论) | Time shouldn’t be spent in analyzing the passage but in enjoying the passage from the whole. Don’t make yourself Choose your favourite writers and enjoy their works. You are sure to be better at writing with the habit of reading. |
Everybody knows that the first impression (印象) is very important. If you want to be better at meeting new people, just follow these tips.
Firstly, live in the moment. If you want to meet new people, the first thing you have to do is not to worry about how you perform and to enjoy the present moment of the new conversation. When you meet a new person, don’t ask yourself, “How do I look?” or “How do I sound?” Instead, ask, “What would this person like to talk about?” or “What matters to this person?” You can keep the conversation by thinking about what to say next.
Secondly, stay confident. If you keep up your confidence, other people will like talking to you. You should be confident before you walk into a room with new people in it and build your confidence as the conversation goes along. Just smile, talk about the things that you love. Body language can help you stay confident. Stand tall and don’t look at the floor. When you introduce yourself, speak clearly and loudly enough that you’ll be heard.
At last, master the art of small talk. Small talk is what helps you get to know people and open up to having a more serious conversation and a more personal relationship. Talking about the weather or what classes you’re taking can lead to a more serious discussion about your favorite interests, or your favorite memories from a certain time of year. Ask the person some basic questions like what classes he or she is taking, if he or she has any pets, or ask anything about his or her summer vacation or plans.

【推荐3】In space film we sometimes see robots. We can see two robots from the film Star Wars—R2D2 is the small robot and C3P0 is the tall one. Robots in stories and films usually walk and talk, but robots in the real world are very different.
Real robots do not have a body with arms, legs and a face. They usually move around on wheels. They don’t usually talk to people, but some of them can understand people’s words. Robots do not have a brain and they cannot think. A computer programme inside the robot’s head tells the robot, “Move forwards, move backwards. Stop now.”
Robots are very useful in factories. People do not want to do the dangerous and dirty jobs in the factory—robots can do these jobs for people. The robots work quickly, and they never get tired. There are many robots in car factories. Perhaps a robot made your family’s car.
Answer the following questions according to what you read.
1. What are the names of the robots in the film Star Wars?
2. Do real robots walk around on legs?
3. Have robots got a brain?
4. What jobs do robots do in factories?

To me, the biggest headache about studying online is the connection of the Internet. Sometimes, I can't hear my English teacher's voice and I have to connect again. It wasted lots of time. Since then, I have checked my network before class every day and asked other family members not to use the internet while I'm having a class.
Lin Xiyu, 14, Shanghai
Studying at home has made it hard for me to plan my schedule at first. Planning ahead and creating a study calendar is important. You need to know how much time each task will take, such as reviewing your lessons, asking questions, taking notes, and making a to-do list for your homework. These are all good ways to help us learn better online.
Zhang Penghui, 15, Heilongjiang
Online learning takes strong self-discipline (自律) and willpower (意志力). There are lots of distractions (分心) while studying at home. My mom likes to offer me snacks and drinks, which sometimes distracts me from listening during my classes. I have asked her to stop disturbing(打扰) me while I'm studying. A quiet room and clean desk can help us.

任务 5：根据短文(C)内容完成表格,每空一词。
Now studying online has become a common way of learning. The biggest difference between studying online and studying in school is that our teachers can’t supervise(监督) us all of the time. So we should be able to control ourselves. I didn’t know this at first. During our online classes, I often got distracted(分心) by my mobile phone.
For this reason, I didn’t do well in the mid-term exam. At that time, I realized that I had to do something to improve my online study habits. So I made up my mind to concentrate(集中注意力) on the online classes. Finally, I made much progress in the final exam.
Now I want to offer you some ways I used to improve my learning during the online classes. Firstly, make a list of what you should do and you shouldn’t do. Try your best to follow it. Don’t set your aims too high at first because proper aims can help you to make the list work. Secondly, keep your mobile phones out of your reach when you study. Give them to your parents if necessary. Thirdly, make efforts to review and overcome your shortcomings. In the process of review, you can ask your teachers for help or work with your classmates.
In general, we should stick to keeping good learning habits all the time. I hope that all students can study better both online and offline.

Do you have any online classes? It is possible to take classes at home by yourself. All you need is a computer and a headset. However, most students don't seem to like online classes. According to a recent survey, only 33 percent of students would take such classes. Over 1,500 students from 10 cities took the survey. Many students said it was difficult to focus on studying while taking online classes. This was true for Lian Ruohan, 15, at the Affiliated(附属的) High School of Peking University. “There are no classmates, no real teachers watching me. I can surf the Internet or do other things if I want to. It's much harder to always stay focused,” she said. Lian prepares a lot before taking her classes to make sure she will pay attention. She also pushes herself to communicate with teachers. Students can come up with or answer questions while taking online classes. But Wen Jiayi, 14, at Yuying Middle School Attached to Chengdu No.7 High School, thinks online interaction isn't enough. “The online teachers don't really get to know me. When I don't hand in homework, all I get is a short message instead of real concern,” she said. However, online classes still have other advantages. “It saves time and money compared with taking offline classes. Also, if I don’t understand some parts of a lesson, I can watch it over again.” Lian said. |
Answer the following questions.
1. How many students would take online classes according to the survey?
2. Why is it much harder for Lian Ruohan to focus on studying while taking online classes?
3. What can students do while taking online classes?
4. Who thinks online interaction isn’t enough?
5. What can Lian Ruohan do if she doesn’t understand some parts of a lesson?
