根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

　1　

Today，kids have more worries and face more pressures than ever before. Here are a few tips to help your child focus on and do well in school.

●Create a personal schedule

Recording everything that must be done on a calendar or “to do” list will help him to keep track of important dates and deadlines. If he keeps it in a visible place he will have no problem acknowledging upcoming events and will be better able to plan how and where to spend his time.

●Watch the clock

　2　 I also recommend setting his clock or watch five minutes ahead since it's always easy to run late. When it comes to something like catching a bus，just five minutes can make a significant difference.

●Focus

He should train himself to be able to concentrate alone on one specific task. This is much easier in a noise­free environment. No TV or radio should be on to distract him.

●　3　

Lack of sleep is proven to harm us physically. The more sleep we get，the more alert we are. We thus have more energy to handle life's daily tasks. The average adult needs at least six hours of sleep a night and the average child needs at least eight.

●Stay in shape

Through spending time outdoors or playing sports with friends，he can “blow off some steam” so to speak，as well as re­energize.　4　

●Talk through your problems

Be able to share his concerns with you. 　5　 If you make it clear that you understand him and are willing to help，not only will you contribute to his emotional health but you'll help build an open and honest relationship as well.

A．Sharing feelings often makes them easier to deal with.

B．Help your child work better to realize his aim.

C．Setting an alarm for the morning is a must.

E．Help your child do better in school.

F．Encourage your child to be positive.
