A:Hi,Li Ming.Ready for the test？Do you have any study tips for me ?

L:Not really.I just listen to the teacher and take notes.

A:Oh,group work is my favourite way to learn.I’m an outgoing person,so I like to discuss things.Talking to others helps me remember things.

L:I’m not very good at group work but I have other ways of remembering things.I like using flash cards.They are really effective.

A:Hmm…Notes and flash cards…I think you’re a visual learner.

L:Yes,I guess so.I learn best when I look at pictures,so I make mind maps to organise my thoughts.I keep a learning diary ,too.I write down what I’ve learnt and my thoughts.It helps me plan my learning and what need to review for exams.

A:Ah,that’s a good idea.I want t try that! My friends and I have a study group .We talk about what we’re learning and help each other .Why don’t you join us?

L:Sure ,I’d like that.

7:00 a.m.  上午7:00 

 

So this is it—senior high school at last! I’m not outgoing so I’m a little anxious right now. I want to make a good first impression. Will I make any friends? What if no one talks to me?

 

就是这样——终于到了高中学校了！我性格并不外向，所以现在有点儿焦虑。我想给别人留下好的第一印象。我会交到朋友吗？要是没人跟我说话怎么办？

 

12:30 p.m.  中午12:30

 

I just had my first maths class at senior high school! The class was difficult, but the teacher was kind and friendly. He even told us a funny story, and everyone laughed so much! I found most of my classmates and teachers friendly and helpful.

 

我刚刚上完高中的第一节数学课！这堂课很难，但老师却很和蔼可亲。他还给我们讲了一个有趣的故事，每个人都笑得很开心！我发现我的大多数同学和老师都很友好，而且乐于助人。 

 

5:32 p.m. 下午5:32

 

This afternoon, we had our chemistry class in the science lab. The lab is new and the lesson was great, but the guy next to me tried to talk to me the whole time. I couldn’t concentrate on the experiment. I really wanted to tell him to please be quiet and leave me alone!

 

今天下午，我们在科学实验室上了化学课。实验室是新的，这节课也很精彩，但坐在我旁边的那个家伙一直试图跟我说话。我无法集中精力做实验。我真想对他说：请安静点，别烦我！ 

 

10:29 p.m. 晚上10:29

 

What a day! This morning, I was worried that no one would talk to me. But I was wrong. I didn’t feel awkward or frightened at all. I miss my friends from junior high school, but I believe I will make new friends here, and there’s a lot to explore at senior high. I feel much more confident than I felt this morning. I think that tomorrow will be a great day!

 

多好的一天啊！今天早上，我担心没有人会跟我说话。但我错了。我一点儿也不觉得尴尬或害怕。我想念我初中的朋友，但我相信我会在这里会结交到新朋友，而且高中有很多事物等着我去探索。我感觉比今天早上自信多了。我相信，明天将是非常不错的一天！
