“Everyone finds a partner,” I say to the kids. We are about to start 8th grade weight training. I say the words to make the kids feel welcome when they come in. When the 8th graders walk in the door,I see the nervousness in their eyes. When I see them,I remember rnyseif years ago when I was doing the same thing.
I remember coming to Granger High School for 8th grade lifting. I felt nervous coming in thinking I would get lost. I also felt nervous to meet the coach. I did not feel welcome because everyone was bigger tiian me. I did not want to mess up (搞糟) and get laughed at by other people.
The second time I went there was a lot better than the first time. I was not afraid to walk into the room and see all the big people. I thought to myself, “If other kids can do it,then I can do it." I went to my partner and felt a little bit more confident. I was still nervous but I felt better. As hard as I tried not to mess up,it happened. Then a voice said, “Good job,you are getting better." I started to feel better hearing people saying “good job”, instead of “get out”.
When I come back to reality,I realize that the kid in front of me is just like me then. When he has finished his warm-up,I tell him “Good job,man,you are getting better." Once I start encouraging him,he starts to feel better. I also feel good about myself for being able to help him feel more confident. I can hear the students praising one another.

The grizzly bear is found in rocky mountains and remote forests of North America. Grizzly bears are geiierally larger and more heavily b?i?t than other bears. Compared with black bears,they have a unique (隆肉) on their shoulders and longer claws (脚 爪) .The claws are better suited to digging rather than tree climbing. Grizzlies also have very thick fur that keeps them warm in terrible and snowy winters,and that is usually dark brown in color. The name “grizzly” comes from the gray-tipped hairs these bears get as they grow older.
The average male grizzly bear weighs between 400 and 600 pounds (180 to 270 kg) . In spite of its huge size,the grizzly can move at a speed of up to 35 miles per hour (56 kilometers per hour) over short distances. Like all bears,it is a good swimmer.
Grizzly bears sleep through the winter,and need to eat a lot in the summer and fall in order to build up enough fat reserves to survive the winter period.Ninety percent of the grizzly's diet consists of;vegetation such as roots,pine nuts,mushrooms and ：berries.

The U.S. high school rate (辍学率) has fallen in recent years,with the number of dropouts decreased from 1 million in 2008 to about 750,000 in 2012,according to a study. The number of dropout factories”，high schools in which fewer than 60% of freshmen graduate in four years,decreased greatly during the same period.
“Clear progress is being made,” said Bob Wise,a former West Virginia governor. “it's not a total success yet. So we shou?dn’ t,take a victory iap. But we can at least st?rt warming up."
Education Secretary Ame Duncan has said the improving graduation rate serves as evidence that the nation's public schools are making progress. But there* re many reasons that graduation rates can rise. And not all of the reasons have to do with stronger schools preparing more students for life after high school.
Alabama,for example,made great progress in 2014. Its graduation rate jumped more than six percentage points,the second-biggest increase in the nation. But the increase agreed with a policy change that took in the same year: Alabama students no longer had to pass ? high school exit exam to earn a diploma (毕业文凭) .
It also isn’ t clear how many students are graduating with the skills they need for the workplace or for college. Graduation requirements vary widely across states,and many states offer different levels of diplomas with different requirements.
Arizona students can earn a standard diploma that requires four courses in math,four in English and three in science. But they also can earn a “Grand Canyon” diploma,which requires just two courses each in math,science and English — less than many colleges’ requ?ement for admission.
