Four ways to have a good school-life

Your schooldays should be some of the best and happiest days of your life. How can you get the most from them, and make sure you do not waste this excellent chance to learn?

Be active at school 

Don't say things are difficult or boring. Be interested in school-life and your school subjects. Join lots of activities. ①( hands, quickly, your, class, in, up, put). Go around the school with a big smile. If you are not working, you are wasting your time at school. Teachers can not make everything enjoyable.

Keep fit

If you donot eat a good breakfast, you will be thinking about food in class. If you go to bed late and do not have enough sleep, you will be sleepy in class. ②Play enough sports every day in order to keep your body strong.

Face the problem

Do not say you will do things tomorrow. If you get behind the class, it is very difficult to get back in front. ③You can not finish the race if you rest all the time. Everyone fails some exams, loses some matches and has bad days. Don't let small problems seem very big and important. Don't forget to ask for help. You are young, no one thinks you must do everything quite well!

Your computer has been playing music for years, one CD at a time.  Now hundreds of songs can be stored in your PC if they' re in the MP3 format (格式).

What is it? MP3 compressed(压缩) music into small computer files. You may download MP3 music several ways: Music can be downloaded from websites that have turned wide music libraries into MP3. Once MP3 music is on your PC’s hard drive, you can play it through your computer's speakers, "burn" it onto blank CDs or swap(交换) MP3 files with friends using e -mail.

How much? Software needed to play and turn MP3 music is often free. Compact portable MP3 players start at around $ 40 and can hold hundreds of songs. A blank CD on which you can record music costs about a dollar.

Advantages MP3 turns your home PC into a jukebox(自动唱机) . Small MP3 players are the size of a deck of cards(一副牌), making it easy to take hundreds of songs with you.
