Good teachers are like candles that gives warmth and light to students.

Miss Wang is one of the good teacher of mine. I can still remember that cold morning when I was walking to school alone as usually. A motorbike knocked me down and race off. I was left on the icy ground, cried loudly. It was Miss Wang who sent me to nearest hospital. Besides, she went to the hospital to help me with the missing lessons every day. The moment when I think of it, I'll feel warm. But I'd like to be a good teacher like him in the future.

I am sorry to hear that you are worried about the variety of English you have been learning.

Firstly, the differences between British and American English may surprise those  have learned English for years. There (be) a few differences in grammar and various differences in vocabulary. British and American people have no difficulty (understand) each other. They watch films and televisions from each other's countries for (please).

Secondly, there isn't only one British American English. For example, all major cities in the UK have (they) own dialects with different accents from each other. Sometimes these accents can be (hard) to understand for even a British person than some Americans. Also, there are Englishes from many other countries. People who speak these Englishes usually also manage (communicate) with other English speakers without any problems.

All learners need to be able to understand English spoken and written by as many people as possible and they need to be able to speak English so that as many people as possible can understand them. You should concentrate on this goal, not on  to speak "British" or "American" English.

I hope this is (help).

Reading books is one of the best hobbies. It not only helps you pass your time but also helps you increase your knowledge in a meaningful manner.  Here we will give you a few tips that can help you.

●Fall into the habit of borrowing books to read.

This is a very old school practice but still it can be highly effective. When you borrow a book, there is obviously a deadline set.

●Read everywhere.

Keep a book in your bag and read it anywhere you go. This will help you to pass your time in a very productive manner.  Anyway, you can read your book 24 hours a day. ●

This can easily be described as a new school technique. You can read out to your brother or sister and this will enable you to finish your book as well as increase the knowledge and understanding of your brother or sister.

●Choose your books very carefully.

 Thus choose your books very carefully in order to enjoy your time and also finish your book effectively. If you choose a good book that can keep you interested for a longer period of time, there is no way that you are going to leave it incomplete.

A. Read out to someone else.

B. Realize the importance of reading books.

C. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the reading habit.

D. Find an excuse to read every day just by visiting book clubs.

E. Yes, life is too short to read a book that doesn't impress you.

The idea that you can use humor, laughter, and play to make you healthier probably seems too simple to be true. However, it is really true and simple. The sense of humor, laughter and play plays an important part in keeping you healthy.

Treat the blues (抑郁) with a sense of humor, which is closely tied to laughter. Laughter is infectious. Have you ever heard a big laugh of a young child and been able to keep yourself from smiling? When laughter is shared between people, it makes them closer to each other and increases their happiness. Smiling is the beginning of laughter and a smile is also just as infectious as laughter is. You can experience something by smiling at everyone around you, and you will feel happier just by sharing a smile, even with a stranger.

Play is an important part of making sure that we stay healthy. We are often encouraged to make sure our children play, and are told of the benefits of being out playing. However, what we often forget is that it is just as important for old people to make play be part of their life as it's for children. Physical play is important for the old and it certainly helps prevent illness. While the studies are still in the early stages, the studies that have been done have shown that physical play certainly plays a part in preventing cognitive (认知的) falling.

Anyway, adding humor, laughter, and play to our life will influence us mentally, physically and socially and bring us many advantages. So we should make full use of humor, laughter and play to make our life more active, more interesting and happier.

Although onions taste delicious, watering eyes come with the process when you cut them up. Thankfully, Good Housekeeping has suggested some tips to prevent yourself from crying while you are trying to cut up an onion.

According to the findings from the Institute, putting onions in a fridge 30 minutes before cutting can prevent the annoying hurt, as the cold stops tear-jerking (催泪的) gas from being produced.

Another way to reduce the gas released by the onion is to put it in water for a while. Good Housekeeping recommends: "Cut the end off the onion and then put it straight into a bowl of water. The water will draw out the acid making your tears fewer when you cut it."

When an onion grows, it mixes with sulfur (硫) in the soil to create a special mineral acid. When the onion is cut into pieces, it reacts and creates a gas. As it reaches your face, this annoying gas causes the eyes to produce tears.

The root is where the gases are most concentrated, so it is recommended that this part of the onion be left on as you cut it to avoid uncomfortable eyes. Do this by cutting the vegetable in half down the middle, then cut off part of one side to create a flat surface. Then, place the onion with its flat surface down and cut it towards the root.

Also, to reduce the gas's effect on your eyes, cut it next to a window or near a fan so the gas is blown away from your face. And take care to use a sharp knife; this will make it easier to move through the vegetable, causing fewer cells to be broken and less gas to be released as a result.

The sun was setting and the farm would be closing soon. I dressed our three daughters quickly as my husband started the car. Cutting down our own Christmas tree had been a family tradition.

As we walked through the rows of trees, my youngest daughter Kimberly shouted excitedly, "There it is, the perfect tree!" The other two agreed. My husband and I looked at each other puzzled. It was misshapen and pine needles were missing here and there.

We tried to talk our daughters into changing their minds, but failed. We had to tie the tree to the top of our car and headed home. As we reached our house, Heather jumped out first. Suddenly she shouted, "The tree isn't there!" We thought she was kidding. However, it wasn't there.

The girls were so sad. "We'll get another tree tomorrow, "I said, secretly hoping the new tree would be prettier. But the girls gave us the look that no parent can say no to. We had no choice but to go back and find that tree.

About five minutes into our drive, we saw our tree on the side of the road. Clearly it had been run over by a truck and a big part of it had fallen off, but we took our little broken tree home anyway.

Once at home, we all agreed that the flat broken side would go up against the wall. That night, as we decorated our tree, something magical happened. By the time we were done, I had to admit, it didn't look sad after all. "This is the best tree we ever had. It's perfect!" my second daughter Samantha said excitedly. My husband and I couldn't have agreed more!

Now we always recall that little broken tree! Year by year, we tell the story of that very special Christmas almost twenty-five years ago.
