20、g is receiving. Helping others is helping ourselves. Do you agree with me?Passage11 My Ideas about StudyingMany people think the more time is spent, the more work will be done. So students have to spend the whole day doing school work except three meals. It is common to see students struggling in a
21、sea of school work both at school and at home.Modern students usually have many interests. They love music and sports. They like reading and watching TV. Especially, a two-day weekend can get them away from too much homework. But they have no time to enjoy themselves. Students are really tired of th
22、eir weekend homework. So they usually dont do their weekend homework until Sunday night. And there is not enough time but much work, students have to finish it carelessly. The poor weekend homework makes teachers angry.Things always get worse without right ideas. Too much homework makes students los
23、e interest in learning. Its also bad for their health.A horse runs faster after a rest. But for students only rest is not enough. So such a condition should be changed to give students both pleasure and knowledge.Please give students less homework but leave them more free time.Passage12 How to be an

25、 going to communicate better with my teachers and classmates, share something good with my friends and help each other. At home, I will try my best to help my parents do some housework, like doing the dishes and cleaning the house because they are very tired every day. At last, Ill protect the envir
26、onment and take an active part in the volunteer work as often as possible. I believe Ill be an excellent student.Passage13 How to reduce pressureDear Mary,Pressure is a serious problem in todays world. I know you are under too much pressure.

28、th me at last. So I think a conversation with your parents is necessary to solve the problem. Less pressure, better life! Best wishes to you!

32、 dont know what I should do. Could you please give me some suggestions? Best wishes.Passage16 Can students use mobile phones in school?Recently we held a discussion about whether the students should use mobile phones at school or not. Some of us think mobile phones should be used at school. First, w
33、e can surf the Internet for information we need, Second, with mobile phones we can play games for enjoyment in our free time. Finally, we can call our parents easily.However, some other students dont think so. On one hand, some students send messages on mobile phones in class. On the Other hand, we
34、can use the school public phones. Besides, keeping a mobile phone costs money.In my opinion, its not a good idea to use mobile phones at school because it makes no difference to improving our study. Passage17 How to get well with othersAs we know, students should learn how to get on well with others
35、. But in what ways? First of all, we should respect others. Everyone has their own way to do things, so we should understand each other. Besides it is important for us to communicate with each other and share our happiness and sadness. Whats more, we should be kind to others and offer necessary help
36、 to those who are in trouble. In my opinion, we should treat others in an honest way. Only in these ways can we get along well.Passage18 The survey on “Using paper cards or e-cards”Dear Editor,I am writing to tell you about the survey Ive made on “Using paper cards or e-cards” In our class.About 30%
37、 of the students want to use paper cards. First of all, they are made by hand and they can express/show peoples real feelings. Second, they are easy to take and can be kept for long. Third, people can read them without computers. However, around 70% of the students prefer to use c-cards. For one thi
38、ng, e-cards can carry lots of information and people can send them quickly. For another thing, suing e-cards can save paper so that our environment can be protected well. Whats more, people can make various designs they like.Passage19 Some questions about learning EnglishDear Kate, Im writing to you
39、 for some questions about learning English. You know, I have great interest in English all the time. However, I find it difficult to learn. In China, if you want to learn English well, listening, speaking, reading and writing are quite important. I wonder whether it is the same in Canada. Besides, o
40、ur teachers tell us again and again that grammar is very important; we must take it seriously. However, I dont like grammar. It is so boring that I never learn it well. Dear Kate, is grammar also very importantto you native speakers? I am looking forward to hearing from you soon. Yours, Han MeiPassa
41、ge20 How to learn ChineseDear Dave, Im glad to get your letter asking for my advice on how to learn Chinese well. Here is my advice. First, As a foreigner, you need to go and join a Chinese learning activity group, the most important thing is to remember as many Chinese words as possible. Second, if
42、 you want to improve your listening ability, youd better read Chinese books, listen to the tapes and radio programs in Chinese. You can watch the Chinese TV programs or DVDs. Third, you make some Chinese friends. Your friends can teach you a lot of Chinese songs and introduce some Chinese festivals
43、to you, too. I think we will have a good time.Please write to me soon. Yours Zhang Hua Passage21 Water pollutionWater is important to us. We cant live without it. But some people dont really care about this. They waste a lot of water, pour dirty water and throw rubbish into rivers or lakes. As a res
44、ult, many rivers and lakes are polluted, and there is less and less water for us to drink. So we must do something to protect the water resource. We should stop the pollution and find ways to reuse water. If everyone can do so, we are sure to save a lot of water. Passage22 Please walk to schoolI thi
45、nk going to school on foot is good for us. First of all, walking to school is a wonderful way to exercise and its good for health. Next, its fun to walk together with friends every day. We can talk about something interesting and know each other better. Whats more, if we walk, our parents wont have
46、to drive us to school. There will be fewer cars in the city. More walking and less driving helps to make our city cleaner. The streets wont be as crowded as they are now, I hope more and more students will go to school on foot. Passage23 How to Develop Good Living HabitsEveryone has different living
47、 habits. Good habits can make us keep healthy. As teenagers, what should we do? In my opinion, everyone should get up and sleep on time every day. Dont play or watch TV all night. That is bad for our health and affect our work. We should eat more vegetables and fruit, and eat less meat. I advise eve
48、rybody to take more physical exercises. Dont eat junk food, for example instant noodles. Dont litter and spit. Dont play on the road. Remember to obey the traffic rules. No jaywalking. In a word, if we want to keep healthy and happy, we must develop good living habits. Passage24 Breakfast Is ImportantBreakfast is
