Dear Donna,

Help! I’m a 15-year-old high school student in New York. In eight months, I’m going to take an entrance exam. To prepare, I’m studying six hours a day. I want to do well, but I’m really stressed these days. I can’t sleep. What should I do?

Yours,

Mary

Dear Mary,

Many students around the world have the same problem as you. Here is some advice to help you deal with the stress. Good luck!

◆Make a study plan for yourself, but don’t study too much in one day. You can remember more by studying one hour each day for six days, than six hours in one day. Also, don’t study late at night.

◆Have a rest for 15 to 20 minutes every two hours. Go outside and walk. Doing exercise is a great way to reduce stress.

◆Don’t eat a lot of sugar or drink a lot of coffee. Eat foods high in Vitamin (維生素) B. For example, eggs, milk, green vegetables and rice. These give you energy and help you think more clearly.

◆A study partner (同伴) can help you practice for the test. When you’re worried about the exam, you can talk to your partner. This can reduce stress, too.

Yours,

Donna

Dereck Joubert and his wife ,Beverly, have made many films about wild animals in Africa. Their films and photographs are very popular and one of the photographs has been on the front cover of a National Geographic magazine.

A working day for Dereck and Beverly starts very early—at 4:30 in the morning ! That’s when they get up and start filming.And it’s a long day—they often work until 8:30 in the evening .In the winter it’s very cold and in the summer it can be 40℃.Dereck always does the filming—Beverly never does that, and she doesn’t write. But Dereck never takes photographs or records the sound. They work very well as a team, and they both believe we should shoot animals with cameras—not with funs!

When they have finished filming and taking photographs for the day, they have dinner and Dereck usually writes while Beverly looks at her photographs. At night they usually sleep in a small tent, but they sometimes sleep in the Land Cruiser—when you’re very close to wild animals, it’s sometimes safer to sleep in the car!

Dereck and Beverly have also travelled around the world and given talks about their work. Dereck says that the animals are not just something to look at—they play an important role. Beverly thinks the wild animals can teach us a lot about ourselves.

Children are amazing! They pick up language so naturally and easily. Have you ever wondered why? It’s because of the way they learn.

Children learn by simply doing what comes naturally—they listen, copy, and communicate. Let’s take a closer look at how children learn language. Perhaps we can discover a better, more “natural” way to learn English.

Listen as often as possible

When people talk to children, they often use simple words that children can understand. That’s really important to the children’s language development. In order to learn, children must be able to understand what they hear. If they don’t understand it, it’s just meaningless noise.

Listen to radio or TV programs that use English at your level. If you can’t understand every word or sentence, don’t give up. Just pay attention to what you can understand. And listen as often as you can.

Be a Copycat

Children like to copy their parents, their friends and even the TV. (the, teaches, this, how, pronounce, them, language, to). As you listen to English, repeat what you hear as much as you can.

Use English to communicate

Children don’t practice grammar rules. They use language to talk about things that interest them. This helps them learn to express themselves. They don’t worry about their small vocabulary or poor grammar. They find ways to say what they want and they do it successfully.

So look for chances to talk with people in English. If you can’t find a foreigner to talk to, talk with other English students instead. Start an English discussion group and chat about music, movies and so on. Don’t worry about making mistakes. You can learn English better by correcting mistakes.

1.Children learn English by __________ copying and communicating.

2.請(qǐng)把文中畫(huà)線的句子“When people talk to children, they often use simple words that children can understand.”譯成漢語(yǔ)。

__________________________________________________________________________.

3.請(qǐng)把文中括號(hào)內(nèi)的詞組成一個(gè)句子。

4.請(qǐng)寫(xiě)出文中畫(huà)線詞 “This” 所指代的句子。

5.When learning language, do we need to worry about making mistakes? Why?

___________________________________________________________________________.
