Students learn their lessons in class. In class teachers teach them. Students sit in the classroom listening to the teacher. This is a way of learning. Is this the only way for students to learn something? Of course not. There is another way to learn: students can teach themselves. For example, if you can’t remember something when you are doing your homework, you can look at your book to find the answer. This is a way to teach yourself. And it is not a difficult thing. We can do this at any place and at any time.

How do you teach yourself? The first thing you must do is reading. Read something you are interested in. or you have to read. The second is that you must ask yourself questions. The question is something you don’t understand, or you want to know more about. You can write down these questions. A clever student is usually good at asking questions. The third is to answer the question yourself by thinking hard, by reading the passage or other books, and sometimes by asking other people. This is the way of teaching yourself. And you must do this all by yourself. If you keep doing like for a long time, you are sure to succeed in your study.

There was a pilot and four people in a small plane. Suddenly there was something wrong with the machine while it was flying in the air. The plane began to fall down. The pilot told the people there were only four parachutes (降落伞). They all became worried and started to make excuses.

“I must go,” said the pilot, taking one of the parachutes and jumped out. The first person stood up, “I’m a doctor,” he said. “I help people live longer and I save lives.” He took a parachute and jumped out.

The next person said, “I must have a parachute. I am a very clever person. I have to attend an important match. I know I will win the game because I’ll be the cleverest person there.” He picked up a pack and jumped out.

Two men were left---an old businessman and a young mountain climber. At this time the plane was going down fast. The businessman said, “ Young man, I am old but you are still young.

Today, there are many problems between parents and children. Many people always ask, “ Why do we often argue(争论)?”

Parents show their love to children in different ways. They cook nice food, buy new clothes for them. They also care about their studies. Parents always ask “ You must work hard”,  “You should do your homework”, “Why not do homework for your exam?” all the time.

When children get bad marks, their parents get very angry. They stop their children watching TV, playing games or going outside until they are good at their studies.

Why? Most families have only one child. The child is the hope of the family, they want the child to be the best.

Many children want to do things themselves. They want to do many unusual things that parents dislike. They like pop music, basketball and other new things. They enjoy surfing on the Internet and playing QQ games. They spend a lot of time chatting online and listening to the QQ music. In their parents’ eyes, these are a waste of time. For these reasons, parents and children often argue.

Many students in China are learning English. Some of these students are small children. Others are teenagers(青少年). Many are adults(成年人). Some study at school, others learn by themselves.

Why do all these people want to learn English? It is difficult to answer that question. Many boys and girls learn English at school because it is one of their subjects.
