I’ve been working in a school for more than twenty years. Many parents often ask me, “How can you teach your child good study skills? How can he or she get the homework done as quickly as possible?” Here are some tips:  

1. If the child is as young as nine or ten, ask him or her to prepare a small notebook to write down the homework given by his or her teachers. By developing this habit, he or she will learn to be much more responsible (負(fù)責(zé)的).

2. Find a good place to study. This should be a quiet place that is free from everything but study things. No games, radios, or televisions. Once you have decided on a place to study, this should be the only place where your child does his or her homework and studies. There should also be a very specific time for homework to be done. Usually, homework should be done as soon as the child gets home from school. This also goes for the kids who take part in after-school activities. Of course, it is a good idea to allow the child to have a healthy snack before the work begins.

3. Also remember that it is the child’s duty to do his or her homework. Some children give up easily and go to Mom and Dad for help when they have a problem. Try to let them solve it first. By doing this, they will get a sense of success from overcoming problems. In this way we help them to help themselves.

1.Asking the kids to keep a notebook to remember their homework will make them ______.

A．remember more                        B．learn more

C．more responsible                       D．more interested in studying

2.The place where the children study must ________.

A．Forgetting.        B．Leaving.           C．Realizing.          D．Beating.

4.According to the passage, the children should _____ when they have trouble with their homework.

A．a(chǎn)sk their parents for help                 B．try to solve the problems by themselves

C．wait for their teachers’ help             D．put it away and have a snack

Have you ever thought about some deep questions in your life such as TO BE OR NOT TO BE? In today’s English class, we had a hot discussion about "What would you do if you had only one day left? "It seemed that different people had different opinions on this. In my class, most students said that they would like to be home and help parents with the housework, they wanted to show their parents the love ,because they seldom showed love to their parents before. Wang Yizhou said,“If I had only one day left, I would want to do something different such as helping others,”which inspired（激勵(lì)）a lot of students and teachers. He said we should do something meaningful such as volunteering to the world. Only a few students said they would do nothing but have the last rest at home. They had too much work to do every day and they needed a rest.

We had different ideas, but we all knew that we must cherish（珍愛）our life. At last, the teacher summed up（總結(jié)）our discussion: We should spend our limited（有限的）life doing something meaningful and try to make the best use of our time. Never wait for the last day to come.
