In the 1960s, a musical group composed a popular song called Monday: “Every other day of the week is fine. But whenever Monday comes, you can find me crying all of the time.” When talking about days of the week, Monday gets 1 expectation. I surveyed friends, and the 2 were very clear. When asking which day of the week they liked the least, 90 percent of them chose Monday. I disagree with them all. I think Monday is actually the best day of the week.
3 , consider all the good things that happen on Mondays. For example, quite a few public holidays are celebrated on Mondays. Then Monday is the best day to do shopping because there aren’t so many people shopping. Experts say that you can also get the best online deals on Mondays. This is 4 true for electronics, such as computers, TVs, and video games.
To me, however, there’s something even more important about Mondays. Each Monday 5 a new beginning. For example, last week I got behind on my homework and had to give up going to a movie with my friends on the weekend. But 6 Monday arrived, I could start all over again.
I also love Mondays because we usually start new lessons at school at the beginning of the week. While last week’s topics may be 7 , Monday can bring a new book to read, or math problems to solve. Besides, I always become full of energy on Mondays after getting enough sleep at weekends.
I realize that I am probably not going to make everyone believe that Monday is the best day of the week, but hopefully I can 8 a few people to change. The next time a Monday comes, think about all the good things that could happen and look forward to the day instead of 9 it.
There’s no way to 10 Mondays, so join me in making the best of them. Who knows? You might even start liking the first day of the workweek.

He worked as an art dealer, a teacher, and even a pastor before turning to painting full-time in his late twenties. His early works were 4 and sad, reflecting (反映) the hardships he faced in life. 5 , during a trip to Paris in 1886, he discovered a new style of painting among the artists-the Impressionism, which had a deep influence on his style and skills.

In no time he was high up in the tree. He said to himself with satisfaction, “That’s it! No one can 6 this place!” But then he stopped and thought, “I’m supposed to be the one with all the wisdom, but here my son was 7 than me!

In the 1960s, a musical group composed a popular song called Monday: “Every other day of the week is fine. But whenever Monday comes, you can find me crying all of the time.” When talking about days of the week, Monday gets 1 expectation. I surveyed friends, and the 2 were very clear. When asking which day of the week they liked the least, 90 percent of them chose Monday. I disagree with them all. I think Monday is actually the best day of the week.
3 , consider all the good things that happen on Mondays. For example, quite a few public holidays are celebrated on Mondays. Then Monday is the best day to do shopping because there aren’t so many people shopping. Experts say that you can also get the best online deals on Mondays. This is 4 true for electronics, such as computers, TVs, and video games.
To me, however, there’s something even more important about Mondays. Each Monday 5 a new beginning. For example, last week I got behind on my homework and had to give up going to a movie with my friends on the weekend. But 6 Monday arrived, I could start all over again.
I also love Mondays because we usually start new lessons at school at the beginning of the week. While last week’s topics may be 7 , Monday can bring a new book to read, or math problems to solve. Besides, I always become full of energy on Mondays after getting enough sleep at weekends.
I realize that I am probably not going to make everyone believe that Monday is the best day of the week, but hopefully I can 8 a few people to change. The next time a Monday comes, think about all the good things that could happen and look forward to the day instead of 9 it.
There’s no way to 10 Mondays, so join me in making the best of them. Who knows? You might even start liking the first day of the workweek.
