Can you imagine (想象) you can fish (钓鱼) in your home on a cold winter day? Now we are going to tell you about a special kind of house——ice fishing house. Staying in such a house, you can even do the fishing and watch TV at the same time.

In North America (北美) and North Europe (北欧) ，many people like fishing on the ice in cold winter. But it9s too cold to stay out in winter, so people think of making an ice fishing house. An ice fishing house is set (放置) on the ice. The ice must be strong enough to carry it. In the house, people can dig holes (挖洞) in the ice and begin fishing.

People can have a lot of fun in their ice fishing houses. Some houses look pretty. In the houses, there are enough things for everyday use. Some have a bedroom, a kitchen and a bathroom. After fishing, people can cook the fish and enjoy their dinner. How great!

Today, most of the ice fishing houses are made of light materials. People can move (移动) them “after fish”. Would you like to fish in an ice fishing house? You will like it!

When the bell rings, every student takes out an iPad. The light from the screens makes their young faces pretty and lively. That’s what happens every day at my school in the US. We use iPads in class.

I felt surprised and excited when I got an iPad the first day I arrived at the school. But it was not free. I spent about $100 to rent (租) it for three years.

Every iPad at my school has a special learning system (系统) called Focus. Teachers put their teaching materials like textbooks and PPTs on it. When we have classes, we enter the system and download (下载) the materials with our iPads.

It makes the classes interesting and efficient (高效的). For example, a few weeks ago, we learned about London in the UK. Our teacher prepared a video in which we saw many places of interest in London. We could not only watch the video, but also see the words at the same time. Because of the video, I know more about the city.

We also do our homework with iPads. We can know how well we do our homework right after we submit (提交) our homework.

However, there are still some bad points about learning with iPads. Some of my classmates play games or surf the Internet in class.

I believe the key to use iPads well is to have good self-control (自制), isn’t it?
