Dear Jenny,
How’s it going? Are you busy with your study these days?
I’ve been back at school   41  nearly four weeks. I’m very glad to tell you that great   42  have taken place in our school this term. First of all, we’re asked to “clear our plates” when having our meals and say   43  to wasting. Some of us used to order more than what we could eat. That was a big waste of food. Now we need to    44  the food we order. We should also stop wasting in some other ways. For example, we should turn off the lights when we    45  the classroom. And our school has opened up some fields for us to learn how to grow vegetables. Each class is given a small garden and our class has decided to grow some tomatoes and beans( 豆类) in our    46  time. I think that’ll be very interesting. Maybe I’ll be able to    47  you some beans we’ve grown by ourselves next time! What’s more, we have only two classes in the afternoon    48  we have more time for after-school activities. I’m one of the traffic safety volunteers in our school. After school, we take turns to  go to the streets near our school and ask people to    49  the traffic rules.
I think we are having a different school life now!
Please write back soon and tell   50  more about your school.
Yours,
Wang Wei

2.I always think about many things before going to bed, so I can’t fall asleep. I feel very sleepy and tired during the day time.

3.I like one of the boys in my class. I think I have fallen in love with him. I’m afraid of that my parents and teachers know my secret.

4. I want to decorate my room and make it more beautiful and comfortable,but I don’t want to spend too much money on it.

5.I bought a pair of sports shoes which cost me 1000 yuan. My grandfather knew this and he was very angry with me, because I spent too much money on the shoes.????????????? A．Don’t fight with him any more. You need to calm down and solve the problem with the teachers’ help.

B． First of all , you have to know that you aren’t old enough to know what real love is. Try to be an ordinary friend with him. You should pay more attention to your school work.

D．If you can’t sleep at night, you’d better relax before going to bed. You may listen to some soft music or read something for fun. Don’t drink tea before you go to bed.

E．You can buy some cheap but beautiful cloth to cover the wall or old furniture. Put up photos you like instead of those expensive ones. Finally, keep your room clean and tidy all the time.

G．You’d better find a chance to talk with them and tell them what you think. I believe they will understand you.

Electronic books have changed the way many people read for   15 . Now online textbooks are changing the way some students learn and some teachers teach.
More than   16  students go to the public schools in Fairfax County, Virginia, outside Washington. Last year, the school system used digital books in fifteen schools. This school year, middle schools and high schools changed   17  printed to electronic textbooks in their social studies classes.
“I mean, it’s just   18  a regular textbook, except it’s got it all online.” says Luke Rosa, a history teacher at Falls Church High School.
Peter Noonan, an assistant superintendent(主管) of schools says, “The world’s changing   19 . And the online textbooks can change right along with the events that   20 .”
“Digital books also cost   21  than printed textbooks,” he says, “Usually it’s between fifty and seventy dollars   22  a textbook for each student, which adds up to about eight million dollars for all of our students in Fairfax County. In fact, we have bought all of the online textbooks for our students for just under six million dollars.”
Social studies teacher Michael Bambara says the e-book he uses in his government class is better than a(an)   23  textbook. It has materials for students   24  different levels of reading skills…
