【推荐2】Lots of kids hate school, a new study found. Usually this kind of feeling doesn’t last long. But what happens if you feel this way too much? School is a fact of life and getting a good education can help you build the kind of future life you want. So let’s talk about school and what to do when you don’t like it.

If you don’t like school, the first step is to find out why. You might not like school because you don’t have enough friends, or maybe you don’t get along well with your teachers. Sometimes it’s a big problem with your classes and schoolwork. You may be getting farther and farther behind, and it may seem that you’ll never catch up with them.

When you know why you don’t like school, you can start taking steps to make things better. It’s a good idea to talk to someone about your problems. Your mom, dad, teacher or school counselor (顾问) will be able to help you. Another good idea is to write down your feelings about school in a notebook. It’s a great way to let out emotions (情绪).

【推荐3】七选五，根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

“I wish I had straight hair”, “I’d like to be taller”. At times, we all want to look more like someone else. However, the pictures we see on social media can give us wrong ideas about how our bodies “should” look.     1     Accepting the differences and feeling good about our bodies are really important for our self-confidence.

Body confidence is when someone accepts and behaves kindly towards their body.     2     Jade Parnell from the Centre for Appearance Research(CAR), says that body confidence means having a light of contentment（满意）that no one can turn off and being OK with who you are completely. If you feel positive about your body, you are more likely to take care of it.     3     You may even do less well at school and feel down because of the worries.

    4     She says, “If you are spending time trying to look in a certain way, you will have less time to spend with your friends and to make important memories. So just avoid it.”

To develop a positive body image, Parnell says, “Try to talk positively about your own body and other people’s bodies. Don’t pay too much attention to appearance.”     5     She points out that comparing only creates a standard we think we need to follow and leads to feelings of disappointment.

A．Stopping comparing your body to others’ is also a good step.

B．That includes our size and shape, skin color, appearance and any physical disabilities.

C．However, feeling worried about your body could make you step back.

D．The truth is that everybody is different.

E．Appearance is more important for girls.

F．Parnell says that the cost of trying to achieve the “perfect” appearance is high.

G．But no everyone is born with beauty and intelligence.

【推荐1】Teeth are very important for our health. They will be our friends for the whole life. So we should learn to protect (保护) them at a very young age.

First, we should eat right. Don’t eat too much candy or drink too much cola, or our teeth will go bad easily.

Have more cheese, milk and yogurt (酸奶) to make teeth strong.

Eat more vegetables and fruit to help clean teeth.

Second, we should remember these numbers.

2/Day   Brush your teeth at least (至少) twice a day: in the morning and before bedtime.

2-3 Minutes Brush for about two to three minutes every time.

3 Months   Get a new toothbrush every three months.

6 Months   Go to the dentist every six months for a check-up.

It’s true that our bodies need to have enough sleep to be healthy. Children should have a ten-hour sleep every night. Those who do not have enough sleep can’t do their work very well. They will not be clever and they may not get wealthy in the future.

【推荐2】Squirrels are getting ready for winter. They are looking for nuts(坚果) and seeds（种子）, digging holes in the ground or finding holes in trees. That’s where they store the food they will need during the coming months, when the weather is cold and sometimes snowy.

Squirrels spend a lot of time in trees, which are like restaurants for them. Among their favorite things to eat are nuts and other parts of trees, like tender buds (花苞).

Squirrels may also eat corn, insects and other animals. And, as anyone who has a bird knows, squirrels love bird food!

Squirrels stay active(活跃) all winter, so they need plenty of food to help keep up their energy（能量）. Squirrels tend to bury food underground, piece by piece. Some squirrels may gather（收集） food into piles that they put at the base of trees or bury underground.

When they need food, squirrels use their memory and smell to help them find what they buried. Sometimes, you’ll even see them digging through the snow.

Squirrels make nests in trees. Some squirrels spend much of the winter in underground tunnels (地道), where it is warmer.

When spring comes, squirrels change their eating habits to new plant growth, like buds and leaves. Sometimes they forget to dig up all their buried nuts.

That’s why you’ll sometimes find a little tree growing in a place where neither you nor your family planted it. It must have been the squirrels.
