Here are five points you can follow to improve your English, and the first point is the most important.
| It’s your duty to achieve your aims (目标)! Studying English is your own duty and not the duty of your teacher or your parents. You must take an active (积极的) part in your classes! |
| Get a teacher or attend a class! It’s a little difficult to study English alone. Also, it’s difficult to learn how to speak English if you don’t have an English teacher or someone else to talk with. |
| Work as hard as possible! You need to practice speaking often. You should do all of your homework, study vocabulary lists outside class, and check the homework in time. |
| Keep studying! Don’t stop for a long time even during a summer holiday! To make good progress, you should study at least 5 hours each week. |
| Make English your hobby and have fun! You can improve your English through other activities: Reading — choose English books that you can read. English songs — choose your favorite English songs and sing them again and again. DVDs — many films are in English with subtitles in your language. Travel — traveling in English-speaking countries can help you with your English. |

Are you afraid of tests? What will you do to prepare for a test? The following suggestions will be helpful.
Pay attention to what your teacher gives about a coming test. Write down exactly what you will be tested on. Knowing what the test will cover is half done.
Make a review list that includes important points from class and reading material. Then your studying notes will be in one place. What’s more, rewriting the material will help you to remember it.
Don’t cram (突击式学习)！Test preparation begins the first day of class, so keep on doing your reading and homework. Then you just need to review for the test—not learn all the materials. If you wait until the night before to try to learn everything, you will only put more stress (压力) on yourself.
Get a good night’s sleep before the test, but if you can’t, don’t be awake the whole night. Research shows that getting at least four hours of sleep produces the better test results.
Eat a healthy breakfast to keep your mind sharp (敏锐的). Avoid sugar, as it will weaken your ability to concentrate (全神贯注).

Do you obey the rules in your school? What do you think of your school rules? Are you allowed to dye hair? A lot of school rules are similar around the world, but some are different.

Almost all schools used to require students to wear uniforms but now half of the schools require uniforms. The students feel happy to wear all kinds of clothes. The students must get to school on time. If they are late, they can’t get into the school gate because the school gate is closed. In some countries, students are not allowed to have part-time jobs because they may not concentrate on their studies.
American schools have their own rules. For example, in Morton High School, students are not allowed to choose their own clothes. They must get to school or leave school on time. Food or drinks or snacks shouldn’t be taken into the classroom. They must wear sports shoes in gym class. They are supposed to keep quiet in the school bus.
