【题目】 Singing songs is fun, but is it also useful? For learning English pronunciation(发音), Mr. Joe thinks songs are the most useful way to learn. At the same time, you can learn some new words and phrases while singing songs. Mr. Joe has used songs to help himself learn French, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese. You should do the same.

Some words used in songs are not everyday English, so you have to be careful how you use song lyrics(歌词)when you speak. Most words and sentences are very useful. You don't have to sing songs aloud if you are shy, but after learning a song you should be able to follow the words without looking at the lyrics. When you can do that, you have learned something that you will never forget!

Some good songs to listen to are from the Beatles, John Denver and the Carpenters. Their songs are not too fast and the lyrics are close to normal spoken English. Just for fun, you can try Mr. Joe's favorite singer, B.B. King. His songs are not easy at all! If you can understand even 80% of "Why I Sing the Blues", you are a very advanced student.

If you become good at singing English songs, you can try to go to karaoke and sing with your friends. When you are able to sing a song in another language, even if you don't sing so beautifully, you will really impress(给......深刻印象) other people!

【题目】The students and teachers at Fairfield School think it’s necessary to look after the environment! This is what they’ve been doing

Fairfield School students have their own vegetable garden. Both children and teachers plant and water the seeds (种子), then they pick the vegetables. And the vegetables are used in school meals.

【题目】Do you know the phrase Weibo Addicts (微博控)? Do you write a Weibo? If you don’t, you are “out”!

Weibo means microblog. People may spend much time writing a blog, but it takes a little time to write a microblog. Why? Because every message on a microblog is less than 140 words.

Microblog started in the USA. It came to China in 2009 and it grows very fast. In 2011, the number of Chinese micro-bloggers grew to 300 million. People write microblogs for many reasons.

It is easy and fast to send a message on a microblog. However, this can also bring problems and even panic (恐慌). For example, when the big earthquake and tsunami (海啸) hit Japan in March, 2011, messages like “Salt can help people fight radiation (辐射)” were hot on microblogs. Then a crazy buying of salt followed.
