Organizing Activities & What to Eat for Kids' Party Kids' parties can be more fun than adult parties―you don't have to be so serious and you can let your inner child out with them. Plus,by the end of the day when all the kids' energy has come to an end,and they fall asleep,you're right there,laying next to them,taking a little nap yourself!

* Plan some games.

These are the building blocks of a good child's party,so start thinking up craft projects,look into renting an entertainer,or make use of the facilities at an outside place. Look into your phone book or search on Webs for party rentals or places near you. 1

When it comes to parties,one thing is timeless―cake. Will you bake one or buy one? Or two? Cupcakes are easy and super trendy as well. 3       Make the food theme oriented,too!

Soda pop,lemonade,and juice are all pretty standard. And if you'll be outside a lot,a cooler filled with bottles of water or cans of soda will surely be appreciated,especially if it's hot outside. 4       If it's autumn or winter,have the kids play outside and come in for cider (苹果酒) to warm them up.

Imagine this: You want to apply for a dream assignment abroad. There's just one problem. You need to grasp foreign language skills―   1       .

It might sound like an impossible task,but according to language experts,you can learn basic communication skills in weeks and master the basics of a foreign language in several months. Phrase books and online tutorials can prove useful in this early stage,experts say,as they can give you the vocabulary and the confidence to have basic conversations with native speakers,the crucial first step in learning a language. Indeed,2       if you are going to make progress in a foreign language,language experts said. This means not being afraid to take risks or make mistakes. Experts believe that total immersion is key to mastering a foreign language quickly. The more you immerse yourself in the foreign language,the more rapid your progress will be. Getting to basic conversational proficiency can be achieved in much less time,just several weeks,according to experts,3       . James North,associate director for instruction at the Foreign Service Institute,said students are encouraged to get to know native speakers. By conversing regularly with language experts or native speakers you have someone to check―and correct your progress. You'll need to ask those you speak with for feedback and 4       ,although experts say you need not worry too much about grammar in the early stages. As you learn,be sure to consume media in the foreign language.

We can see lots of ladies dancing in the square or open spaces after dinner time. It is a very harmonious scene 1        someone fires guns and releases his dogs 2       (threat) these ladies to escape,just because their music is too loud. Some people think this noisy music has 3       (serious) affected their life,so that the dancing ladies should 4       ( drive) out of public places. But I can't agree with them.

I have two reasons to support my views. In the first place,most dancing ladies are retired women,they finally have extra time to do something they like to do―get together to dance,make more new friends 5        share the same habit 6        them,and build up their body as well. As a matter of fact,some dancing lady is a loner without family members at home,and the dancing group is like their second home. We should not take 7        their right of dancing.

In the second place,squares and open spaces are public places;everyone can use them for any actions of entertainment 8        relaxation. If someone complains about the noisy music,they can go 9       (straight) to the dance group and ask them to turn it down. We don't have to solve this problem by an extreme way.

As a consequence,we cannot force the dancing ladies away,because it is a public place,and why can't we show some mercy10       a group of retired ladies who just need a place to dance together?

Because of poor childhood reading habits,most people read up to 10  times slower than they actually could. 1       But,by employing certain basic techniques along with some consistent practice,your reading speed and accuracy will increase without taking away from your overall reading comfort.

1. Identify why you're reading.

Before you start reading,you need to seek out your motivation. 2       Think about why you're reading the book in front of you. Is it for fun? A job? School? Your reasoning will help you find the right frame of mind for the task and aid in absorbing the information more efficiently.

2. Narrow down on the important parts.

3          A good speedreader is also smart. Learn to read selectively and change speeds. Think back to your initial reading goals. If you know which topics are essential,don't be afraid to slow down during the important areas to maximize your retention (i己个乙力) . 4       Don't let an unimportant paragraph get the best of you.

3. Use a guide.

Training your eyes to pick up the reading pace and maintain it is the final step. Naturally,the eyes tend to pause or drift from the page―even for a split second―during regular reading. In reading an entire book,the amount of time lost can be significant. 5       The easiest way to control them is with a guide,which can be as simple as your index finger (食指) or a pen.

   A. Another thing to consider is the type of book you are going to read.

   B. In that case,find a book and a quiet place to read.

   C. We can't expect an average reader to become a "speedreader" overnight.

   D. So it's critical to keep the eyes on the page.

   E. Conversely,you should also be ready to skip paragraphs and unnecessary words.

   F. Don't try to read through each page at top speed.

   G. Why you read is essential for deciding how fast to read.
