A growing number of Chinese people go to night schools. They can get colorful courses from dancing and sports to wine tasting. These courses usually cost hardly anything. They have become popular among young people who want to look for new skills, hobbies and friends.
In the 1980s, many people studied at night schools for middle school courses. However, night schools disappeared because of the popularization of higher education. The latest fashion came to Shanghai last autumn, when more than 650, 000 people competed for 10, 000 places at the city’s night schools.

三、任务型阅读理解
English has some apologetic terms(表示歉意的用语). It seems that they mean the same thing. They almost do. However, what are the differences between “Excuse me”, “I’m sorry”, “Pardon”, and “What”?
Pardon
Americans don’t really use “pardon”. If you do, they will probably joke that you’re trying to sound pretentious(炫耀的) or joke that you’re British.

I’m sorry
We often use “I’m sorry” for past events. That’s to say, it is generally used to apologize for something you have already done. For example, if you step on someone’s foot on a crowded bus, you would say “I’m sorry” or “sorry”.
Excuse me
This is generally a term to ask permission(允许) for something. For example, you’re walking through a crowded space and someone is in your way. You would say “excuse me” to ask him to move out of your way.

What
Americans usually use it to ask someone to repeat himself. If you want to be more polite, you could say, “I’m sorry, what was that?” or “Excuse me, what did you say?” or any other such thing. Most Americans will just say “What?” though.
In our daily life, we can also use these terms by mixing them up. You could, for example, ask someone to move by saying “Sorry, would you mind moving?” It’s an extra-polite way to make your request.

Break bad habits by doing useful things.
Instead of biting your nails or playing with your hair, keep your fingers busy writing or drawing. Eat some fruit instead of junk food.
Hold on to it.
Maybe you’ve heard “Old habits die hard”. Well, it’s true. It usually takes three weeks to a month to break a bad habit. But don’t give it up and you’ll have more success than failure in the end.
