Because of its lovely look, the bear became popular with children.

Five Suggestions on Goal Setting

Setting goals can help you do your best in life easily. The following can help you:

Small goals work well. Remember a small goal is easier to reach than a bigger one. So you’d better make a small goal each time. That’s helpful to you.

Good habits help you much. It usually takes time for you to develop a habit—maybe a few months, for example, getting up half an hour earlier to exercise. Why? That’s because your brain needs enough time to get used to the habit.

Repeat your goals. Say your goals out before a mirror loudly in the morning every day. In this way, you can remember what you want and what you are working for. Also, writing your goals down also works. It will train your brain to accept your goals.

Make changes only for yourself. You have to reach a goal just because you want it, not because any others, like a girlfriend, boyfriend, coach, parent or someone else, want you to do. It will be more difficult to keep active in reaching a goal for any others.

Being always lazy will make you fail. It may take a few tries before you reach a goal. But that’s OK –it’s normal to give up a few times when trying to reach a goal. But you will fail if you are always lazy. Don’t give up or you will lose a chance to change yourself in your life. And maybe it will be a great pity for you in your own life.

All schools have their own rules (规则). The rules change from one school to another. Some schools are much stricter（严格） than others. There are also some rules that are strange or funny to us. Here are some funny school rules:

Strict Japanese rules

Most schools ask students to wear uniforms, such as sports suits or skirts. But Japanese schools even have rules about the colour of underwear! They also need that girls' socks should be folded(折叠) in a certain way and boys' heads should be shaved(剃).

Other Japanese schools tell students that they can't go to the movies after sunset.

Different shoes in the USA

At some American schools, students have to change their shoes when they go into the schools every day.　 This makes sure students won't fall over on the floors and keeps the schools clean.

No strange hair in the UK

Students can’t have strange hairstyles in some British schools. But they can wear certain hairstyles during the World Cup years. There were two students who had special hairstyles during the 2002 World Cup. After the World Cup, their teachers asked them to go to the barber's at once.

Now students’ English handwriting gets worse and worse. Their teachers worry about that. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If not, here are four steps that really work.

Use paper with lines

Using paper with lines can keep you writing straight instead of up or down when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size. Be sure to fill the lined space completely. And remember to write those capital(大写) letters properly.

Slow down

If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going a little slowly makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes.

Hold your pencil correctly

When you hold your pencil correctly, writing is much easier. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to be relaxed and don’t hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with a good habit.

Draw more pictures

Drawing can make your handwriting better. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better when you are drawing pictures. Even though（即使）you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by yourself at home.

Handwriting is very important. Imagine（想像）you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your fans run up to you? Give them your autographs（亲笔签名）, of course!

Nowadays, many people in China and Japan are racing against time. They put a lot of value in “being on time”. However, in some countries of the world, people have different opinions on “being on time”.

Germany

Thanks to its industrial past, in Germany you are expected to arrive at least ten minutes earlier for any planned meeting. In Germany, being on time is risky enough because your hosts will probably already be there waiting, wondering how on earth you could be so stupid. What will you do if anything unexpected happens, like heavy traffic or a sudden rain? So remember to arrive early in Germany.

Saudi Arabia

Some countries care little about time and Saudi Arabia is one of them. It’s because of their long history of desert living where time is not the first thing to think about. It could be that it’s too hot to do anything on time. So don’t expect them to be on time. Moreover, looking at your watch during an event is even considered as bad manners. So don’t get angry with them, either.

Ghana

Most meeting times can be changed, even if an exact time is given. Ghanaians are very easygoing. They think that if everyone is late, then no one is late. After all, what can’t be done today can get done tomorrow. If you find it difficult to deal with, prepare to be unhappy.

Russia

Patience is considered a very important quality in Russian culture but being on time is not. When doing business in Russia, do be on time. Otherwise, it will be considered disrespectful. But Russians won’t hold themselves to the same standard. So, again, patience can be key.

Eric and Chen first met in their Maths class at an American college. Chen was an International student from China. He wanted to learn about American culture and hoped he and Eric would become good friends. At first, Eric seemed friendly. He always greeted Chen warmly before class. Sometimes he offered to study with Chen. He even invited Chen to eat lunch with him. But after the term was over and they were in different classes, Eric seemed more distant. They didn’t see each other very much at college. One day Chen called Eric, but Eric didn’t seem very interested in talking to him. Chen was hurt by Eric’s change of attitude（态度）.“Eric said we were friends.” Chen said. “I thought friends were friends forever”. As a foreigner, he doesn’t understand the way Americans view friendship.

Americans use the word “friend” in a very general way. Their friendship is based on common interests. When the shared activity ends, the friendship may die. Now as Eric and Chen are no longer classmates, their “friendship” has changed.

In some cultures friendship means a strong life-long tie between two people—friendship develops slowly, since it is built to last. But American society changes quickly. One fifth of American families move every year. American friendship develops quickly, and it may change just as quickly.

Learning how Americans view friendship can help non-Americans remove misunderstandings（误解）. It can help them make friends in the American way.

Don’t Be Fat

Americans are getting fat. A new study says that most Americans are too fat. Is that true? Look at the people around you. Are most of them fat? Are most of them thin? Or are most of them in between? Many fat people get sick. They die young. Doctors say these people can love longer. They must eat more fruits and vegetables. They must eat less meat and more fish. They must eat less fried food. They must not eat at fast food restaurants. No more Chereseburgers(干酪汉堡包). They muxt eat less bread and less pasta(意大利面食). If they eat less, they will weigh less. But Americans must also exercise. They must walk more. They don’t have to run or jog(慢跑). They don’t have to climb stairs. All they have to do is walk. Just walk 30 minutes a day. Is that hard to do? Eat less. Walk more. Live longer. It sounds easy. But people love to eat. Eating is fun. Food is delicious. So it’s not easy to eat less. Try to do it, though it’s hard to do.
