Finding a suitable place to live is not easy for a student who first arrived in a strange place. I was lucky because I had booked a dormitory with the school before I arrived. It was a flat with seven independent rooms and a shared bathroom and kitchen. All of my flatmates are all students from Britain. I thought I was lucky to be part of this flat with these energetic young men. However, I found myself unhappy with them only a few days after I stayed there. These young people seemed never to be quiet. Usually they would not come back until late into the night. They even played football in the room whenever they like, whether it's early morning or late night. Worse still, they always had parties. Those loud music and laughter made me sleepless the whole night. Finally, I had no choice but to ask the authority to move me to another flat where most of the students were international students pursuing their master degrees. They were older in age and held heavier study burdens. So they were quieter.
My advice for those who want to study in the UK is to get in touch with the International Student Accommodation Service of your school first and tell them to arrange for you to share a flat with graduates before you come here.

Small-class teaching used to be accepted only in universities in China. But it has been very 1 in all schools abroad. Interestingly, it seem that it is finding 2 way into the primary schools(小学)in Shanghai.
Recently, 12 schools 3 Hetian Road Primary School held small-class lessons.
One day I 4 the classroom of class 4, Grade 1 of Siping Road Primary School, I found that they were 5 a Chinese lesson with the topic(话题) of " 6 ".The 24 pupils of the class were divided into six 7 .They were discussing the question 8 by teacher: Draw the scenery (风景) 9 in the spring. In a moment, four 10 of drawing were hung before the 11 .Then the children were 12 to explain the drawing in their own 13 :"The sun is smiling"; The little fish 14 out of the river to 15 the red flowers or green leaves in the spring"; "the little bird is playing a 16 in the sky"; "The grass is dancing by the river"…
The new teaching 17 greatly helped develop every child's 18 ability(能力) and thirst for 19 .
When asked about the good results brought about by the small-class teaching , Mr Yu, headmaster of Siping Road Primary School, said that new way of teaching 20 .It can help puplis work out problems on their own. 22 ,a teacher may have to pay more attention to each 23 ,even to some shy ones who are often neglected (忽视) by the teachers in a 24 class. This means that teachers should know each student quite well, Yu said.
It is said that, in the near future, the small-class teaching method will 25 to other primary schools in Shanghai.

Many people see a person who can't read or spell as disabled, but what does disabled really mean? Well, with Andrew Mertzit of Maryland it meant he would not be 1 to attend his school any more. Andrew's 2 is that whenever he is reading, he sees the letters p, d, q and b as a 3 and stick. Since Andrew's teachers couldn't 4 him much, Suzanne, Andrew's mother decided to take 5 in her own hands. She decided to home school Andrew. In ten months, Suzanne, a trained reading specialist tried many different 6 to help Andrew with his disability. She helped Andrew with making letters out of sand, rice and shaving cream. Now, about nine years later Andrew is 7 having some problems with reading, but certainly a lot better than before.
Lately researchers have been finding many different ways to help learning disabled students by 8 things like rice and shaving cream or even to get little computers. Also, nowadays there are schools all over that have programs to help disabled kids, unlike back in 1995 when Andrew had to be 9 schooled by his mother.

Lots of people just thought he was 13 and had discipline(纪律)problems. Many years later he finally was 14 for learning disabilities and found out he really did have a disability.
