Your child is no longer a kid. He is now a teen. He wants to go to a big school. You don’t know which school to choose? Here’s how to choose a school for your teen who has special needs.
Decide on a public or private school. 1.There is one advantage to a private school that there will be fewer students per class so your kid gets more time and attention from his teacher.
2. Ask him where his friends are most likely going to go when school starts and whether he wants to go to the same school as his friends. You all are in the same boat so your goal is the same as theirs, to find the best school for their teen.
Ask members of your immediate family. Especially if you have relatives and close family members who are also dealing with the same situation. It will put you greatly at ease to know that their own teens are in a great school where your teen can go to as well. 3..
Lean towards a school where a uniform is required. Especially when the cost of tuition is expensive, it’s better to choose a school that requires their students to wear uniforms. 4.
Make a request for an appointment with the school principal. When you get a meeting, ask all your questions about your teen’s special needs.5.Finally, walk the school grounds and check out various facilities like the library, restrooms, locker rooms, activity areas, gyms, etc.
A. Think about location
B. Seek the advice of your teen
C. Ask your relatives right away
D. He’s going to look cute in it, too!
E. You can also go online to broaden your search
F. Then ask if you can observe a class in progress
G. A difference between thee two is how much money it will take.
The Australian postal service has apologized for delivering a letter half a century after it was sent from an island in the South Pacific.
A couple from Adelaide found the faded postcard, from the French Polynesian island of Tahiti, resting on their doorstep under a gas bill. It bore a postmark of 1966 and was addressed to one “Robert Giorgio”, according to the Adelaide Advertiser. The postcard, which was written by someone named “Chris’, reads: “I am enjoying myself greatly. The weather is very humid. I’ll try and drop you a note in England.” Its stamp cost 13 francs, or around nine pence, and is understood to have been sent to the original owner of the house, whose whereabout is unknown.
“It took a while to realize it was an old one,” said Tim Duffy, who bought the house 18 months ago with his wife, Claire, and believes it was built by an Italian man in 1963. “Then I checked the post date and it’s 1966.” He suspects the card may have been sent by someone who was travelling by boat. “It’s fresh enough although it is a bit faded and it’s got some damage to the top left, which looks like a bit of water damage,” he said. Mr Duffy handed the letter back to Australia Post, who acknowledged that something had “gone wrong” and issued an apology. “It is clear that something went wrong 50 years ago after the postcard was posted in French Polynesia, and we apologise for the inconvenience,” a spkesman said.
It is not the first time that a letter has taken vastly longer than expected arrive at its destination.

In every significant relationship, there comes a time when you have to ask the tough questions: what’s the deal with the mysterious fifth pocket on our favorite jeans?
To find out, we called in the experts: Korie Lovette and John Cunningham ,two merchandise mangers for Wrangler jeans. “The fifth pocket was introduced in the 1800s as a protective sleeve for cowboys’ pocket watches,” Lovette told TODAY Style. “Although the pocket is rarely used for watches today, standard jeans are still being produced in a way that can accommodate a size 16 pocket watch.”
We haven’t seen a pocket watch since the last time we watched “Castaway” , but Cunningham insists that the pocket has plenty of modern uses. “Today, men use them for pocket knives or loose change, while women might use it to hold lipstick,” he said. “Over the past couple years, it has become an increasingly popular spot to store technology devices such as cell phones or iPods.”
And then, of course, there is the issue of aesthetic(美感). “A classic pair of jeans would look incomplete without the fifth pocket,” Cunningham explained. “It’s a tradition; an authentic construction of the jean. It was product innovation before that was a famous item. We keep the fifth pocket for the typical completeness of our jeans.”
That said, there are times when it makes sense to break with tradition for a more pleasing fit. “When Wrangler determines whether to include the fifth pocket or not, we look at the overall aesthetic of the figure,” said Lovette. “For women’s skinny jeans or leggings, we usually don’t include a fifth picket since the consumer will most likely be wearing a blouse that will cover the pocket.”
1.The original use of the fifth pocket is to ___________.
A. hold pocket knives B. carry cowboys’ money
C. make the jeans more beautiful D. protect cowboys’ pocket watches
2.What can we infer from the text?
A. Women usually like the fifth pocket on their jeans
B. Wrangler has some kinds of jeans without the fifth pocket
C. The fifth pocket was designed mainly for storing cell phones
D. The question about the fifth pocket is asked often between phones
3.What may be the best title for the text?
A. Is the extra pocket good or bad? B. Is the fifth pocket to be changed?
C. The reasons for having that extra pocket D. The styles of the fifth pocket
