Today was my former junior school’s fifty anniversary. I attended to its Homecoming Day. Early in the morning, followed some other former schoolmates of different age, I arrived at the school gate. We first went around the school and then visit the school museum to admire all the pleasant changes in recent years. Afterwards, several students had a tea party with some teachers or other students, talking about our old days and school life today. Unknowingly, several hours passed. Before leaving, all of us were inviting to leave a message on a wall. I wrote serious that I was very grateful to my school for her giving me a happy and brilliant childhood. What great Saturday!

A gratitude journal is a great way to keep yourself in a positive state of mind. This article will offer some tips for starting and keeping one.
1.Make it a rule to write down things you are thankful for per day. 1.This will make writing the journal more challenging as time goes on, but that's how your awareness and thankfulness will grow. You'll find new things to be thankful for what you never noticed before.
2.Write about extended material things in your life. 2.For example, if you love to paint, you may be grateful for the paint that you have. Or, if you like music ,you may be grateful for your CD connections.
3.3.. You can start by feeling grateful to be alive . Avoid the trap of being grateful for something that is better than what other people have. Instead, compare whatever you are grateful for with how you would feel if you didn't have it.
4.Think about your abilities. You may start with basic abilities like your abilities to see and hear., 4.Think about skilful things like singing and dancing ,and your character like your skills in cheering up people or your skills in being a good friend.
5. Consider the people in your life. Think about all the people you are grateful to and write down the reasons. It's also good to write about the people that you don't really like and find a reason to appreciate them, its also a test of your character.5.After all ,There is good in everyone.

“No pains, no gains.” gives the impression that we ought to be suffering while we study. It seems that the only way to know if we’re putting in enough work is how much hardship we bear. We are totally taken up with study, shutting ourselves away for a big exam. Is that necessarily true?
When we haven’t taken the time to come up with another idea, we just shut ourselves in a room with a book. It’s no surprise that we find revision boring and difficult. Just as children learn from playing, we can learn from doing, or at least from study techniques that interest us, rather than make us switch off. Shutting ourselves away can make us learn to hate studying, leading to a situation where instead of being able to concentrate on our work, we are troubled by how unfair it is that we must study. This can be part of a vicious cycle(恶性循环) that traps us into ineffective revision, your poor progress fueling further annoyance.
Thankfully, working in the company of other people really helps fight against that. We just need to learn how to deal with distractions. It’s not necessary to avoid all company, just idle(懒散的)company. People, who are bored and looking to be distracted, are terrible to work around. They constantly try to keep others in conversation. While studying in the same room with someone who is ironing or working out is perfectly possible. Of course, it’s also a good idea to avoid the company of people involved in activities where you would rather be playing than study. Working while sitting next to someone playing video games is most likely to end with a new high score in games rather than productive revision.
If being around others means working in a noisy environment, a pair of headphones and some background music can block out noises. They also act as a psychological barrier, so that people think twice before interrupting you. Besides, we should know friends and family can lessen feelings of isolation(孤立). And connecting with other people makes us happy, so it’s important not to give that up and to make sure that we take the time to socialize.

A. introduce an effective studying means

A. Revision is interesting and easy with study techniques for certain.

A. playing video games is helpful for an effective study
B. one shouldn’t study with the company of a video player
C. one should study from certain activities that one is interested in
D. the more time one spends in playing games, the higher test scores one will get
