Monday…oh, I don’t like Monday because I’ll have to go back to school again after the weekend. Tuesday is not so bad. I usually play tennis with my friends after school. On Wednesday evening I don’t go out. I stay at home and do my homework. I like Thursday because the next day is Friday. I always go out on Friday—maybe to the cinema. I love the weekend. On Saturdays I get up late, and I sometimes go to the shops in the afternoon. In the evening we go to a club. Then on Sundays I go to my friend’s house or she comes to mine. I usually visit my grandmother for an hour in the afternoon. Then the weekend is over and it’s Monday…and I feel bad again!

Going to a new school can be difficult, but this passage will help you in the beginning. Here is something to help you to fit in(融入).

First, take a day to enjoy your school. You won’t fit in at school if you don’t know the school. Ask for a school map. Try to get to know every corner of your new school. A good school handhook can be of great help. But to make it easy, ask the people near you where something is—tell people that you are new when you need help.

Be nice to everyone. Be nice to everyone, the young or the old, because they might just be your next teacher or friend.

Get to know your teachers and pay attention in class. Teachers always pay attention to(关注) new students, Talk to them and find out more about them. Never test their limits(底线)—don’t go too far, or you may end up getting into trouhle（麻烦）

You need to make friends. Talk to different people. Be yourself and don’t lie. This is YOUR school now, take a chance(机会) on being who you weren’t at your old school. Join a few clubs or sports teams and make more friends in this way.

Be yourself and be polite. Don’t worry too much about what people think of you. Be true, be yourself, and be nice to everyone, no matter how mean(unfriendly) they may seem at first. It’s often the “girl/boy that I did’t like at my new school” that ends up being my friend after a little while. But then again, don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself if it’s very clear that you should.

Work hard to fit in while still being yourself. The first few weeks are always hard, but you’ll soon get used to it.

"Tom? Are you in bed yet?" called Mrs White. There was no answer. Mrs White put down her book and went to her 14-year-old son's room. Tom was sitting in front of a bright computer screen on which a colourful dragon jumped and shouted.

     "Oh, Tom! You're still playing on that computer. You must stop now. It's half past eleven. If you don't go to bed soon, you'll be very tired tomorrow," said Mrs White.

     "But I've nearly beaten the dragon," said Tom. Mrs White could see the excitement on her son's face. She sat down beside him.

     "You are always playing on that computer. You spend more time with this machine than with your family," she said with a smile. "What's special about it? Show me what it can do!"

     "I think this is a great computer, Mum!" he said happily. "The hardware (硬件) is good. There's so much memory and it has some wonderful software programs. This game, 'Dragon Player', is my favourite, but I sometimes borrow games from Daniel and other friends. I don't have to worry about any infected（感染） disks because I have a virus（病毒） detector (探测器) which can go over any disk and check it for viruses. Let me show you!" Tom began tapping. The screen changed in answer to his orders.
