Last Sunday, our school held the sports activity in order to developed our awareness of fitness. That morning, all the students and teachers had gathered on the playground. Then the headmaster announced the begin of the opening ceremony. After the opening ceremony, all kinds of events started one after others. The playground was alive with excitement. That drew the most attentions was a competition between students and teachers. Since then, the teacher-student relationship has been strengthened, but so has the awareness of sportsmanship. I’m convincing that the unforgettable activity will get us prepared a better future both mentally and physically.

2 . Students at an elementary school in California, with the help of their art teacher, created a telephone hotline that people can call to get cheerful advice from kids during difficult times. Shortly afterwards, the hotline began getting thousands of calls an hour.

The hotline is available in English and Spanish. It offers the happy voices of children of different ages sharing positive messages. For example, by pressing 1, you can hear a group of kindergartners saying together, “You can do it! Keep trying, and don’t give up!” Pressing 2 brings the sounds of children laughing-a sound certain to bring a smile to anyone’s face.

Jessica Martin, who teaches art at West Side School in Healdsburg, California, thought her students just might have the magic words needed to bring calm to people in difficult times. Ms. Martin worked with students at West Side on a project they called “PepToc”. Actually, they called it “Pep Talk” first. But when Ms. Martin’s 6-year-old son drew an ad for the hotline and spelled it “PepToc”, they decided they liked that even better.

Most of the project was completed in a day. Ms. Martin worked with students from kindergarten to the sixth grade. She had the same basic question for all the students-What could you say to help or encourage someone else? Students working on the hotline thought of what they would like to say. When they were ready, Ms. Martin recorded each one. Later, she sorted out the recordings into the different parts of the telephone hotline.

Ms. Martin thought the project would only attract interest from people near the school. But the hotline was soon getting hundreds of calls a day-and then, thousands of calls an hour. It’s become unbelievably popular with stressed adults, patients in hospitals, older people in homes, and others who just want to hear the happy voices of children.

High school is regarded as best time of my life. Beside classes and homework, there’s something more that I especial treasure. To leave school without regret, I’ll make the best of my limiting time to go over the lessons I’ve learned from. At the same time, I’d like to show my thanks to all the teacher who have given me so many help. For the purpose of improving me, I’ll ask my classmates for some advice, that may be of great value to me. Last but not least, doing some good deeds for my classmates was also my plan. With these things done, I will have no regret in my high school life.
