Improve Your Productivity (学习效率)
Researchers have found that most of our tiredness comes from our mental attitudes (心态). One of England’s doctors, J.A. Hadfield, says, “ 1. . In fact, tiredness of completely physical origin (缘由) is unusual.” So, remember -- the key to improved productivity is learning to relax. Here are some suggestions for you.
Relax form time to time
2. . It is said that if you want to master the art of relaxation, study the cat. Think about it. Have you ever seen a tired cat, or a cat with a nervous break-down? You will probably avoid this kind of feeling if you learn to relax as the cat does.
3.
Remember that tensions (紧张状态) on the body produce aching shoulders and nervous feelings. Variety and movement keep you physically and mentally alive. The most interesting task can get boring if done for long periods of time, and the most comfortable chair isn’t comfortable if the work r must sit in it for hours.
Think at the end of the day
4. . And if you are tired, is it because of the mental work you’ve done, or the way you have done it? Generally, if you feel extremely tired at the end of the day, it’s quite likely been an inefficient (效率低的) day.
5. Then you can work with a new attitude the next day.
A. Think of a cat
B. Work less hard
C. Work in a comfortable position
D. This will help you form the habit of relaxing.
E. Make notes of what changes you need to make.
F. Ask yourself how tired you are at the end of the day.
G. The greater part of tiredness comes from mental attitudes.
Come on! All of us are cutting math. Who wants to take that quiz? We’re going to take a walk and get lunch instead. Let’s go!” says the coolest kid in your class. Do you do what you know is right and go to math class, take the quiz? Or do you give in and go with them?
People who are at your age, like your classmates, are called peers. When they try to influence you how to act, to get you to do something, it’s called peer pressure. It’s something everyone has to deal with—even adults.
Peers influence your life, even if you don’t realize it, just by spending time with you. You learn from them, and they learn from you. It’s only human nature to listen to and learn from other people in your age group.
Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system. Or you got others excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone is reading it. Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them.
It’s difficult to say “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.
It can really help to have at least one other peer, or friend, who is willing to say “no” too. If you continue to face peer pressure and you’re finding it difficult to handle, talk to someone you trust, a parent, or a teacher. They can help you feel much better and prepare you for the next time you face peer pressure.

About nine million people like rock climbing in America. Millions more take part in the activity around the world. Some do it just for fun. Others compete.
Climbing takes strength, control and good balance. Climbers have to pull themselves straight up the face of very high rocks or walls. So they have to be strong enough to carry their own weight. And climbers sometimes have to hold onto rocks by only their fingers or toes.
There are several kinds of rock climbing. Traditional rock climbing is done outside. Climbers wear ropes and tie equipment to the rocks as they climb many hundreds of meters up. They also connect their ropes to the equipment. If a climber slips, a rope can stop him from falling.
Sport climbing is similar. However, in it the protective equipment is placed in the rock all the time. There is also indoor climbing. Rock walls made of wood have places for the climber’s hands and feet.
Ice climbing is exactly as it sounds. People climb glaciers or frozen waterfalls instead of rocks. They use special equipment for the ice.
And then there is bouldering-climbing rocks (巨石攀岩) between three and seven meters high. It is quicker and stronger climbing. Many climbers like bouldering because they can use less equipment. Climbers often need only special shoes and chalk (防滑粉). All climbers use chalk to keep their hands dry.
Most rocks have cracks and holes and parts that stick out. Climbers use these for foot-holds and handholds. Climbers use their legs to climb. They try not to pull themselves up with their hands or arms. Arms and hands are for position and balance.
People almost always climb in groups of two or more. Climbing alone is very dangerous. Expert rock climbers say only the very best in the sport should do it.

The fitting-in of Suzy Khan
The first time I saw Suzy Khan, I knew I had to help her. She was really small for her age of 12. The boys in my class often about her and laughed at her a lot. She would open a book, pretending to read, with tears dropping on the open page.
All I knew was that she was an orphan (孤儿), from Africa. She had just been adopted (收养) by a family in town who that the best way for her to learn American ways of life was to be with American kids. I looked down at this girl, and promised myself that somehow I would help her.
But how I would help her in with us? There had to be a .
One day, when I went into the classroom, I saw that Suzy had her geography book to a picture of a train, and in her notebook, she had made a (an) copy.
I was surprised and thought that she could do something in the coming show. So, I took her to see the art teacher, Miss Park, and showed her what Suzy had . “Why, it's wonderful,” said Miss Park, who then showed us a poster she had painted the talent show. “I need more of these, but I just don't have enough . Could you help me, Suzy?”
On the day of the talent show, Suzy's were everywhere - all over the hall and all over the school, each one different.
“And finally,” said Mr. Brown, the schoolmaster, at the end of the show, “we have a (an) award. I'm sure you've all noticed the wonderful posters.” Everyone nodded. “One of your own students them.”
I could hear everyone whispering (窃窃私语), “Who in our school could draw well?”
Mr. Brown waited a while before saying, “ this student worked so hard on the posters, she deserves (应得) a , too. Our mystery artist is our new student, Suzy Khan!”
Mr. Brown thanked her for all the wonderful posters and gave her a professional artist's set. “Thank you,” she cried.
I , at that time when I was looking at her excited face, she'd probably never anything in her whole life.
Everyone started to their hands, Suzy Khan gave them a shy smile and the applause (掌声) was deafening (震耳欲聋). I knew then Suzy was going to be all right.
