New Year is coming soon! Let's see three students' New Year's resolutions(决心).

 Jim: I love sports, especially(尤其)football. I play football and I want to play it better. This year I am going to join a club and do more exercise. I'm also going to stop eating junk food because I think this will help me to play well. What's more, I want to be a good boy so I'm going to be kind and help other children.

Sally: When I am older, I want to be a doctor. I have to study hard to get a place at a university. So this year I'm going to go over lessons. I'm also going to stop using the Internet on school days. I think this will help me to focus on(专注) my studies. I want to help my mum, so this year I'm going to do more housework.

Joe: I'm going for a trip in Spain next summer with my family. I want to learn to speak to Spanish people and make some friends. So this year I'm going to take language classes and read Spanish books in my free time. Also, I'm going to stop shouting at my little brother. He's only five years old, so I'm going to be good with him.
