Mr. Guo is a teacher from Xi’an. He asked his students to hand in their homework through a QR code(二维码). “We spent an hour or two in class learning how to generate the codes, and in the end everything gets easier.”
The QR codes can be sent to Mr. Guo by email, QQ and WeChat. Guo’s students like the new way and think it is interesting. “We are living in the information age. Many students like to work with computers, which makes learning more fun.” Said Tingting, a student of Guo’s.
However, some parents are worried. They are afraid that their children will spend too much time on computers and less time communicating with teachers. But in fact, it’s unnecessary. Students still need to look up information in books and write it down when they do their homework. They only use the codes when they hand in their work, which doesn’t take them too much time. Also for teachers, it allows them to check the students’ work at any time. And it’s also an easy way to share homework with other students.
1.How long does it take the students to learn to generate the codes?
__________________________________________
2.How can the QR codes be sent to Mr. Guo?
__________________________________________
3.Do you think it’s necessary to introduce the new way of handing in homework to your school? Why or why not?

It is important to have good learning habits if you want to study，and this is especially true when it comes to online learning.
Online learning is a process different from what you will find in a traditional school. The learning environment and methods are different.
When studying in a classroom，there is a lot of communication between the students and the teacher, but little interaction(互动)among the students，while online learning helps one student and another to interact very seriously and closely. So one of an online teacher's roles is to encourage students to interact. Another is to guide discussion，it isn't the same as teachers do in a classroom.
So how can you develop good learning habits in online learning? Here are some good suggestions. First, it is a good idea to prepare well for online learning. You can write down daily tasks and even weekly tasks that you want to complete. By doing so，you will have a good plan for achieving your goals. Second，you should spend as much time online as if you were going to regular courses. Also，always try to leave extra time to communicate with other students.
Besides this，any post(帖子)you put up online shows who you are. So hand in your homework on time so that you don't fall behind.
1.What is important if you want to study online?
2.What can an online teacher do according to the passage?
3.Do you like online learning? Why or why not?

Life offers so many lessons, both practical and personal, that you’re never too young to begin learning them. Here are somc skills to learn as soon as possible.
Money Management 
When you start receiving money of your own. It’s time to start understanding your relationship with money. In a world where you can buy any and every object, the key is to save money by buying only essentials (必需品) and a treat sometimes.
Cooking 
One great way to save money is to learn to cook for yourself. Beyond that, cooking at home also helps you control your diet for better health. If you start doing this at an early age, you will not have to depend on your parents too much.
Keeping Promises: 
Promises are a matter of honesty and should be made with care. We must learn from an early age that our word must be followed up by action. When it isn’t, others will quickly lose trust in us and not respect us.
Accepting Rejection (拒绝)
Though you must. be careful not to break your word, others’ promises aren’t always kept. Learn about it early, and you won’t be hurt easily. Also, not every job application or desired (渴望的) friendship will work out, so remember that there are more fish in the sea.
LifelongLearning 
No matter how old you get, there will always be things beyond your understanding. It’s better to learn to be modest now rather than take a proud fall later in life. Be open to new experiences and keep learning. And it’s never t,oo late to start.

It was Mother's Day. John was so busy with his work that he couldn't go back home. When he passed by a flower shop in the evening, an idea came to his mind. "I'll send Mum some roses."While John was picking his flowers, a young man went inside. "How many roses can I get for only five dollars, Madam?" he asked. The assistant was trying to tell him roses were as expensive as forty dollars a dozen (一打). Maybe he would be happy with carnations (康乃馨).
"No, I have to have red roses." He said, "My mum was badly ill last year and I didn't get to spend much time with her. Now I want to get something special, it has to be roses as rose is her favorite."
After hearing it, John said he would pay the rest of the money for the young man. Moved by both of them, the assistant said," Well, lovely young men, thirty dollars a dozen, only for you." Taking the roses, the young man almost jumped into the air and ran out of the shop. It was well worth twenty-five dollars John paid to see the exciting moment. Then John paid for his dozen of roses and told the assistant to send them to his mother.
As he walked out, he felt nice. Suddenly he saw the young man crossing the street and going into a park. But soon he realized it was not a park but a cemetery (墓地). Crying, the young man carefully laid the roses," Mum, oh, Mum, why didn't I tell you how much I loved you? God, please help me find my mum and tell her I love her."
Seeing this, John turned and quickly walked to the shop. He would take the flowers home himself.

If you visit the animal shelter(收容所)in Saunas, California, you'll see huge signs that have a picture of a dog and a cat on them. These signs are put in front of the shelter to catch people's attention. The signs make people interested in the shelter and encourage them to visit it and maybe even take a cat or a dog into their homes.
Each year, the Salinas shelter accepts thousands of dogs and cats. The animals are either lost ones or are left by people who can't take care of them. Of all the animals, some of them are taken into new homes. Some others are moved to other shelters. And, unluckily, some cannot be saved because they are too sick or are thought to be dangerous.
Animal shelters provide food, medicine, and safe places for animals. But they are not the best homes. The animals stay in small cage(笼子). The people who work at shelters do their best to care for the animals, but the animals do not always get the attention or exercise they need.
To prevent animals from becoming homeless, pet owners should take good care of their pets. Most pet doctors also suggest people make sure their pets have a special surgery(外科手术). It prevents animals from having more babies. And that reduces the number of homeless animals.
1.How many dogs and cats does the Saunas shelter accept every year?
2.Why are the shelters not the best homes for the animals according to the passage?
3.If you find a homeless cat in the street, will you take it home? Why or why not?

The way we spend our time can be. divided into three groups，or jars(罐子).These would be the necessary tasks jar, the voluntary tasks jar and the happiness jar.
Every day，we spend time filling the necessary tasks jar. We fill this jar with useful things，like making money，doing housework，buying food and paying bills. We then fill another jar with voluntary tasks like taking children to activities and cooking family meals. Those jars are very important，but we may not enjoy them. If we don't fill them each day，our family won't run properly.
However, we often forget to fill the third jar一the happiness jar. This is the jar that we fill
with activities that make us happy. Is your happiness jar sometimes empty at the end of the day? We all have days like that. Between doing all the necessary, and voluntary tasks，time flies by on some days，and before we know it，it is time for bed.
That is why each day we try to fill our happiness jar. Most days，I fill mine by going to the ballroom dance(社交舞)class. Playing music is another way that I fill my happiness jar. This week，I was happy to take part in an orchestra(管弦乐队)practice at my church(教堂).At the end of the evening, my happiness jar was full.
Consider how. your time is spent. Try to find ways to achieve a balance. At the end of the day，hopefully we've done all we can to make sure that our happiness jar is filled.
1.What will happen if we don't fill the necessary tasks jar and the voluntary tasks jar?
______________________________________________________________________________
2.How does the writer fill her happiness jar?
______________________________________________________________________________
3.Do you think it important to fill the happiness jar? Why or why not?

We might love to tell others about our unusual experiences. For example， we climbed a high
mountain， tasted a rare food， or ran into a superstar on the street. But new research suggests that sharing these unusual experiences may not be welcomed in conversation.
We all like unusual experiences， and always can't wait to share them with our friends. Some people even thought that having an unusual experience would make them the star of the conversation.
However， it was wrong. To be unusual means to be different from other people. And if you do not share similarities with the people around you， they will not welcome you in the conversation. Besides， conversations always seem to go well on more usual topics.
To find out， psychologists(心理学家)invited 68 participants(参与者)to come to the lab in groups of four. In each group， one watched a wonderful video of a magic performance， while the other three watched a cartoon video. After watching the videos， the participants sat around a table and had a short conversation.
The participants who watched the magic performance said they felt worse after the conversation than those who watched the cartoon video. That was because they felt left out during the conversation.
This finding suggests that we might want to give more thought in choosing which experiences to share with others. If an experience turns you into someone who has nothing in common with others， then no matter how good it was， it will not make you happy.
1. What kind of topic can make conversations go well?
2. Why did psychologists do such an experiment(实验)?
3.Would you like to share your unusual experiences with your friends? Why or why not?
