American people like to say “Thank you” when others help them or say something kind to them. People of many countries do so,too. It is a very good habit.
You should say “Thank you” when someone passes you the salt on the table,when someone walking ahead of you keeps the door open for you,when someone says you have done your work well,or you have bought a nice thing,or your city is very beautiful. “Thank you” is used not only between friends,but also between parents and children,brothers and sisters.

It is necessary to share your feelings with others. Sharing your feelings helps you to get closer to people you care about and who care about you.
Sometimes it can be really hard not to tell anyone that you’re feeling sad,worried,or upset (心煩的) . Don’t keep feelings locked inside. If that,it can even make you feel sick!
But if you talk with someone who cares for you,like your mom or dad,you will not be all alone with your problems or worries. It doesn’t mean your problems and worries go off,but at least someone else knows what your trouble is and can help you find ways to do with it.
If the person doesn’t understand what you mean right away,try explaining it a different way or give an example that has something to do with you. Of course,there are many ways for you to speak up your feelings. If you think you’ll have trouble saying what's on your mind,write it down on a piece of paper.
Some of us,just like some adults,are more private (有隱私的) than others. That means some people will feel shy about sharing their feelings. A kid doesn’t have to share every feeling he or she has,but it is important to share feelings when a kid needs help.

What do you call a school with no tests,no grades,no classes,and no teachers? Students of the Met School and their parents think it to be the best school in the world.
The school is in Rhode Island,the USA. Dennis Littky opened it in 1996. He was fired from two other schools,because many parents of the school students were happy with his unusual ideas. The school takes poor kids who are failing at schools. Nearly everybody has already given up these students and their parents want to try anything. The Met School gives Littky a great place to try out his new ideas.

Instead of tests,the students give shows about their work outside school.
