Weekday mornings are very busy for us middle ...

Weekday mornings are very busy for us middle school students．People are running into each other, shouting across the house，knocking on the bathroom door and always，always running late．When you＇re late for the carpool，though，you also make everyone else late．

When your school doesn’t have a bus，and you live too far away to walk，you need a carpoo1．A carpool is a group of people sharing the responsibility(责任)of driving to school in the morning．There are usually four or five kids in a carpool and their parents take turns driving the kids in their cars．

Someone’s car smells like wet dogs，some kids get to eat desserts for breakfast and　 some parents shout so much that all you try to do is stay quiet and go unnoticed．When your mom or dad drives the carpool，your classmates get a close-up look at how strange your parents can be．It might be your first sociological(社会学的)study and your first experience with real teamwork．

Teamwork is really important in the carpool because nobody wants to make everyone else late．It’s a great lesson in responsibility(责任)．Imagine sitting in the car outside of a classmate’s house，watching the clock and tapping your toes．Then you start to understand how your carpool friends might feel when you are still inside the house at 7：48．You really begin to learn all your real life lessons just moments before the start of school in the carpoo1．

For us students who are studying at school, the time of exams is very stressful and difficult. Some people find exam times so bad that they become ill, because they

are afraid of failing; they are afraid of letting their parents and family down. If exams are really making you ill or worried, don’t hide your feelings. Talk to someone about it. Maybe you can speak to a friend, or someone in your family, or teachers at your place of study. If one person doesn’t help you, ask someone else.

How to get through exams? Here are some①________ （建议）：

Ask a teacher or tutor about how to review your lessons, and exam skills-how to work when you are in an exam.

Take short rests during your time of work. If your mind is tired, it will not remember well.

Plan your work: study at times when you know you will work at your best.

Get enough sleep, and eat ②________ （健康）food.

You need exercise to work well. Walk, run, play sports-whatever you enjoy.

Stop thinking about the future and failing.

If you feel ill, talk to someone about your worries. But don’t be too relaxed!③Some stress over exams makes you work hard for them.

If it upsets you to talk to your friends about an exam when it is finished, don’t do it! In fact, don’t even think about the exam you have finished. What is done is done. ④ 你不能改变你已经写的东西！

To this advice, we could add:

If you are studying in the evening, don’t go straight to bed. Your mind will still be“going round and round”-thinking too much. Do something else, maybe walk or get exercise. Choose something that will relax you, and make you think of other things.

Managing(管理) money is an important skill for adults. But a group of middle school students in the US have had some early lessons.On Sept 23, eighth-graders from Honey Creek Middle School in Michigan, US, had an eye opening experience called Let’s Get Real. The event aimed to help students use money properly.

“I didn’t know it costs so much money just in a month,” said Douglas Dillon, one of the students. Like other students, Dillon acted as a 28-year-old adult with a job and family. He chose to be an engineer. He could earn $5,000 (30,600 yuan) per month. But after he spent his income on essentials (必需品), including housing, taxes (税), transportation, childcare and entertainment (娱乐活动), he only had $347 left. “I really should spend it carefully and not waste it,” said Dillon.

Meanwhile,Braxton Scamihorn,another student from Honey Creek learned a greater appreciation (感激) for his parents and what it takes to pay the bills. The 14-year-old found that “kids cost a lot of money” when he learned that childcare for three children would cost $900 a month.

“It is just a necessary lesson on problems that the teens are going to face when they are about 28 years old,” said Peggy Murdoch, one of the organizers. They hoped the students learned about real life budget (预算) decisions and had more respect for their parents.

1. The aim of “Let’s Get Real” is to 　　　　　　　　 .

A. Help students have a real experience.

B. Help students enjoy the fun of managing money.

C. Help students learn to use money properly.

2. Which of the following statements is TRUE about Douglas Dillon?

A. He is an engineer at the age of 28.

B. He acted as an adult who could earn ￥5000 per month.

C. From the experience he knew he should spend money carefully and not waste it.

3.What items do essentials include according to the 2nd paragraph except 　　　　 ?

A. housing and taxes

B. transportation and entertainment

C. childcare and travel

4.Who is the organizer of the lesson?

A. Douglas Dillon

B. Peggy Murdoch

C. Braxton Scamihorn

5.What can we learn from the passage?

A. The students learned nothing about real life budget decisions.

B. Many 28-year-olds will face some problems on managing money.

C. Honey Creek Middle School is in the U.K.
