EDGEWOOD ¡ª Every morning at Dixie Heights High School, customers pour into a special experiment: the district¡¯s first coffee shop run mostly by students with special learning needs.

Well before classes start, students and teachers order Lattes, Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates. Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries.

By closing time at 9.20 a.m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks.

¡°Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good,¡± Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher.

The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school.

They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with their affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers.

Special-education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia.

Not that it was easy. Chevalier¡¯s first problem to overcome was product-related. Should schools be selling coffee? What about sugar content?

Kenton County Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use non-fat milk, fell within nutrition (ÓªÑø) guidelines.

The whole school has joined in to help.

Teachers agreed to give up their lounge (ÐÝÏ¢ÊÒ) in the mornings. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks. The basketball team helped pay for cups.

Have you ever felt a sudden feeling of joy because you heard a favorite song playing? Then you know that music can have a strong effect (Ó°Ïì) on your emotions. 1.It can help get you out of a bad mood (ÐÄÇé) or stay in a good one, says Alicia Ann Clair, professor at the University of Kansas.

2. To cheer up, listen to Latin music or anything with a strong beat or a fast speed 3. When you want to relax after a busy day, music with a slower speed can calm you down.

Listen to calming music before you start any stressful activities, advises Dr. Clair. "Once you' re in a good state of mind, it' s easier to keep it." You can lower stress at work with music, too, by playing relaxing tunes (Çúµ÷). 4. "If you listen to them all day long, you' ll stop noticing them," Dr. Clair explains. Then the music won' t have any effect.

5. "To feel energetic, start with something relaxing, and then gradually increase the speed and beat," says Dr. Clair. For example, first play some nice slow love songs, and then listen to something more energetic. When you want to calm down after a busy week at work, just do the opposite.

A. Music can also help you relax and feel active.

B. Try to take advantage of this power of music.

C. But only play them when you really need them.

D. Loud and fast music can fill you with energy.

E. There are different kinds of music around the world.

F. Put on your favorite song, but only if it is one that can lift your spirits.

G. You can change your mood by changing from one kind of music to another.

One of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to have friends, you have to be a friend. But how can you be a good friend at school?

Listen ¡ª Listen when they are talking. Don¡¯t say anything unless they ask you a question. Sometimes it¡¯s not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.

Help them ¡ª If your friend is ever in need of something, be there to help them. You should try to put them first, but make sure you don¡¯t do everything they want you to do. Try to take an extra (¶îÍâµÄ) pencil or pen with you to classes in case (ÒÔ·À) they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.

Be there for them ¡ª Try to make something for your friend to help make them feel better in hard times. Making cards and encouraging them are among the nicest things you can do for a friend. Marilyn Monroe, a famous U.S. actor, once said, ¡°I often make mistakes. Sometimes I am out of control. But if you can¡¯t stay with me at my worst, you are sure not to deserve (ÖµµÃ) to be with me at my best.¡± Always remember this! If you don¡¯t want to stay with your friends when they¡¯re in hard times, then you don¡¯t deserve to be with them when they¡¯re having a good time!

______ ¡ª Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, go for ice cream, have a party, go to a movie and so on. Take time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy. By planning things together, you both can have a good time. And you¡¯ll remember these things when you¡¯re all old!
