A new term has begun. Teachers are 41  about the fact that new students are not easy to deal with. They like to bring cell phones and MP3 players to school. What is worse , some students even use cell phones 42  out-of-class matters in class, or sometimes just for fun. Some 43  students listen to MP3 players when they are having a lesson that they are not interested in.

Are these new students really that 44 ? “Yes.” Says Delaney Kirk, a professor（教授） at Drake University. But she adds it’s not their fault. 45 , the teachers should be blamed(责备). Mrs Kirk first began thinking about students’ manners six years ago. “I had my first class in which students were sleeping or talking to each other. It seemed that learning well had nothing to do with them.” She says. “At first, I got worried about this.” But then I said to 46 , “You’re giving lessons, and you need to manage this kind of situation. These students need to know more about manners. It’s time to help them develop some good 47 . They shouldn’t waste time doing nothing when they are young. Sooner or later, they may regret(后悔) the time they 48 .”

Mrs Kirk also makes a list of suggestions to help teachers better manage（驾驭） their classes. The following are among her suggestions:

l  On the first day of class, tell students how they will benefit(受益)by taking the class and the importance 49  listening carefully in class.

l  Do not allow them to bring cellphones or MP3 players to the class at all.

As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize; they can also be small, such as becoming one of the best students in your class.

Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream real?

Follow Your Heart by Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that making our dreams real is life’s biggest challenge. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it is impossible for you to become a writer. Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dream, the books says.

In fact, everyone can realize his dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will come true faster. You should know that a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams.

You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will help you to get better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.

As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn something more useful and find new hobbies.

1.Your dreams can be very ____, such as becoming one of the best students in your class.

A. big             B. small        C. high        D. low

2. Follow Your Heart is a ______ .

A. movie          B. song         C. book        D. dream

3. What idea stops you from realizing your dream?

C. I think I am very great    D. I am the best student in our class.

4.Don’t let ____ leave your heart.

A. your idea    B. your decision    C. your dream    D. your book

5.Studying TV will help you to get better exam results ____ watching TV.

A. with     B. instead of      C. without       D. by

At 18, many American young people go off on their own. They go away to college or find full-time jobs, and they often rent their own apartments. Some get married and start families.
