Everyone wants a true friend. But what’s a true friend l1.? A true is one who can give you
a2.and help when you are in trouble. You can call him or her at any time and t3.
about your worries. A true friend is b4.than a good friend. A true friend will come over
to h5.you without any request（要求） and be with you in n6.. A true friend is like
a mother who is just a true friend of her c7.. Instead of having hundreds of good friends,
if you have a true friend, you are l8.. Sometimes it is much e9.for us to receive butmore difficult to give, so be a true friend yourself f10.if you want to have a true friend.
If you think of after-school activities as a waste(浪费)of t1., you are wrong! After-school activities can help us grow up in many ways. They o2. us chances(机会) to practise what we learn in class. Through activities, we can also learn more a3. today's society(社会)and a lot of new things that we can't learn from our b4.. What's more, they help to develop our abilities that we need both for our studies now and for our work and life in the f5. .
We are busy with our studies in school. Many students like to stay in the classroom to do homework i6. of going out to relax(放松). I hope the students can have l7. homework and have more time to do after-school activities. Some will make us s8. and healthy; some may even change our life. After-school activities just make it possible for us to breathe(呼吸) f9. air and remove tiredness(消除疲劳). Then, we can pay attention to(注意) our studies and get good grades. So, all the students, come out and take p10. in after-school activities!
There was once a wise woman who lived back in the hills .All the children liked to come back and ask her questions . She always gave the right answers .
There was a naughty (调皮地)little boy a1. the children . One day he caught a bird and held it in his cupped hands . Then he gathered his fingers (手指) around . He said “Let’s trick the old woman. I’ll a2. her what I’m h3. in my hands . Of course ,she’ll answer that I have a b4. . Then I will ask her if (是否)the bird is living or dead . If she says the bird is dead ,I’ll o5. my hands and let the bird fly away . If she says the bird is alive , I’ll quickly crush(压碎) it and show her the dead bird .Either way , she’ll be w6. .”
The children agreed that this was a c7.plan .Up the hill they went to the old w8.hut (小屋)。
“Granny ,we have a question for you ,”they all shouted .
“What’s in my hand?” asked the little boy.
“Well , it must be a bird,” answered the old woman .
“But is it living or dead ？”asked the excited boy .
The old woman t9. for a moment and then a10.,“It is as you wish ,my child.”
Healthy eating doesn’t just mean what you eat, but how you eat. Here is some advice o1. healthy eating.
Eat with o2.. It can help you to see others’ healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious.
Listen to your body. Ask y3. if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty—sometimes you are just thirsty, you need no food. Stop e4. before you feel full.
Eat b5.. The breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After you don’t eat for the past ten hours, your body n6. food to get you going. You will be smarter after eating breakfast.
Eat healthy snacks like fruits, yogurt or cheese. We all need s7. sometimes. In fact, it’s a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your t8. meals. This doesn’t mean that you can only eat a bag of chips.
Don’t eat dinners l9.. With our busy life, we always put off(推迟) eating dinner until the last minute. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours b10. you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest(消化) most of the food before you rest for the next 8—10 hours.
As we all know it’s important for us students to learn all the subjects well. Will students do better in their lessons if they spend m1. time on them? Many people think it’s true. So students have to spend the whole day d2. school work except three meals.
Students have many h3.. They love sports, after-school a4. and art. Two days’ holiday can get them away f5. too much school work, and they can do what they like. But sadly, many teachers do not think so. They h6. their students do much homework even at the weekend. Some senior students even have to have lessons on Saturdays. It’s usually difficult for students to find time to enjoy t7.. Students are really tired of too much homework at the weekend. So they don’t do it until Sunday night. And there is not enough time to finish the homework c8.. The poor weekend homework usually makes teachers feel u9..
Things will not get better without right ideas. Too much school work makes students lose i10. in learning. It’s also bad for their fitness.
A horse runs faster after a rest. For students only a rest is not enough. Both teachers and parents should do something to make a change now.
What will happen if a family is without the Internet for a month? One American family
decides to find out. They have sent an invitation to a leading US television station, expecting(期望) that it will send a film group to record their day-to-day life w1. the Internet for a month.
When the film group meet with the Smiths, they find that Mr. Smith, Mrs. Smith and their two c2.are so crazy about the Internet that t3.hardly(几乎不) do things together. At mealtimes, no one s4.at the dining table for their food. “Everyone just runs into the kitchen, takes their food and then goes back to their screen,” Mrs. Smith explains. “I5. we don’t make a change, our family will become strangers to each other!”
Getting back to the normal life without the Internet is not e6., especially when the Smiths lose themselves in it. They have to make many c7.. For example, the two kids have to go to the school l8.to borrow books for their study about science, and Mr. and Mrs. Smith need to go out shopping because they cannot buy things on the I9.. As the family have picked up the new lifestyle, they find that they can spend more time talking over meals, playing sports and doing all k10.of activities together.
Would they be able to go for long without using the Internet after the challenge(挑战)?
