A good relationship between students and teachers makes the classroom a very inviting place.
When you like your teachers as friends, it’s easier to pay attention to their explanations and improve your marks. 16 When your teachers consider you to be a friend, they’ll feel more open in class and that will probably influence the classroom in a positive way. Now here are some tips to develop a friendly relationship with your teachers:
Ask questions. 17 Show them that you're interested in their subjects. That will make them notice you. But never ask questions that you already know the answers to. If your teachers realize that you are not asking real questions, they might think that you’re not actually trying to learn, but only trying to make an impression.
18 When you see one of your teachers in the hall, greet him/her and ask if he/she is going to that concert or if he/she has seen that movie. 19 Some teachers don’t like to have friendly relationships with students, but most of them are happy to chat with their students. After a while, they may start to talk with you about non-school subjects in the classroom.
The rest is totally up to you; it is very easy to develop a friendly relationship with any of your teachers. If you want to be friends with your teachers, just treat them as friends,but don't forget that no matter how good friends you are, 20

Teenagers Earning Money
While a new environment is exciting, the adjustment process can be challenging. Even if everything is going well at the beginning of your new job or school, something unexpected can happen. 16 The following tips will help you adapt to a new environment more quickly and smoothly.
Ask questions. It is understandable that when you start, you don't want to show you need additional explanation, but you have to remember you are new! You are learning an entirely different process, so there will be things you need to ask to understand. 17 In fact, it has the exact opposite effect. You will not only impress others with your original ideas but also open up opportunities to build relationships across your new team.
Seek out a mentor(指导者). Having a mentor, particularly at the beginning, can make your adaptation much more manageable. This person can be your boss, your professor, or just a friendly classmate or co-worker. 18 And more importantly, they can help you learn some essential things you won’t find in the handbook.
Get to know people. Beyond your mentor, make it a priority to find more new friends. It does make a considerable difference. This way, you will feel more connected and a part of things, instead of being an island. This doesn't mean you have to go to every corner and introduce yourself. 19
Focus on this role. 20 Thinking of how comfortable you felt in your last role means you wish things were the same and second-guess yourself, which can threaten a quick adaptation. Don’t look backward. Welcome the new challenges, appreciate the new skills you are learning, and you are sure to be successful in the new role.
A. Doing this won't make you look less intelligent.
B. Comparison usually hurts us more than it helps us.
C. It can be as simple as getting involved in group activities.
D. Don’t let your feeling of unfamiliarity be an excuse to stay alone.
E. You can make the change more difficult if you go in the wrong way.
F. They'll deal with your questions and help you adjust to the culture easily.
G. Focus on identifying how your previously learned skills can benefit you.

Rules of Life
Imagine life as a game in which you are playing some five balls in the air. You name them: work, family, health, friends and spirit, and you're keeping all of these balls in the air. You will soon understand work is a rubber ball. 16 But the other four balls are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be worn off, marked, damaged, or even broken into pieces. They will never be the same. 17 How?
Don’t undermine your worth by comparing yourself to others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.
Don’t set your goals by what other people consider important. 18
Don’t take for granted the things closest to your heart. Hold on to them as you would to your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
Don’t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile(脆弱的) thread that binds us each together.
19 It is by taking chances that we all learn how to be brave.
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
Don’t forget that a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated. Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily. Don’t use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved(挽回).
Yesterday is a history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. 20
A. Don’t be afraid to encounter risks.
B. If you drop it, it will bounce back.
C. And that is why we call it the present.
D. Only you know what is the best for you.
E. Don’t hesitate when you still have something to give.
F. You must understand that and struggle for balance in your life.
G. Your personal life has to take second place to the five balls.

Good time management allows you to complete more in a shorter period of time, lowers the amount of pressure, and leads to career success. Here is some advice for you.
Make a plan
List all the tasks that are important. 16 Next, highlight the tasks on your list to show their urgency. Then focus only on one item at a time and enjoy the pleasure of crossing off the completed items.
Stay away from distractions(分散注意力的事)
Though the e-mail and social media are important to your everyday communication, they require much of your attention. 17
Learn to say “no”
18 Although saying no to someone older than you is much more difficult, it’s important to be honest and to look after your health. Sharing your list with him/her will help to refuse the additional work.
Give yourself a break
Don’t be hard on yourself. You will actually perform better if you take breaks. 19 The world will not fall down if you put off opening some e-mails.
Improve your plan

I am not sure how many books I have reread, but perhaps it is fewer than the average person.
16 The source material, though, is of course not.
I used to take the same approach to books as I did to travel: Don’t go to the same place twice. Life is too short.
17 Then I realized that the fact that life is short might work the other way around, too: If you know you enjoy something, or somewhere, then why not return?
Recently I reread Joseph Helle’s Catch-22. I was inspired to do so when reminded of how he'd respond when people rudely asked him why he’d never written anything good: “Who has?” Catch-22 pretty much saved my life when I first read it. 18 I had dropped out of school twice, didn't leave the house at all and didn't have a life. It felt as though I hadn't laughed in such a long time.
19 It managed to take me out of the dark world, and though its themes are, of course, serious, its cleverness cheered me greatly. I related to its characters who are themselves trapped. I am now planning to reread the sort of books that inspired me in my own writing.
I won't take a break altogether from reading the most recent releases. I love the smell of new books fresh from the printers. 20
A. Catch-22 had me laughing.
B. My favorites are second-hand editions.
C. There is discomfort in reading recently-released books.
D. At that time I was an extremely depressed 17-year-old.
E. For me, the pleasure of rereading is a newly discovered one.
F. There is so much to read and so much to see and experience.
G. However, I have determined to dip more frequently into the old ones.

Wildlife workers in Florida are feeding manatees(海牛) to keep them from starving. 16 So far, the rescue workers have already given out 25 tons of lettuce.
Manatees are huge sea mammals that can be as long as 4 meters when they grow up. 17 In spite of their size, manatees only eat plants that live in the sea.That's one reason they're sometimes called “sea cows”. They spend most of their time in warm shallow water looking for food.
But Florida’s manatees have been on the U.S. government’s list of endangered animals since 1967. Most threats to manatees come from humans. One of the biggest problems faced by the creatures is the boat. 18 Manatees are curious and fairly slow, which has led to thousands of manatees being injured or killed.
19 At one point, there were only about 2,000 manatees left in Florida.But by 2016, there were roughly 8,800 manatees.
But now manatees are facing a new challenge: They can’t get enough to eat. Many of the beds of seagrass that manatees depend upon have been killed by human-caused pollution. Seagrass began to disappear around 2011. Warming seas, combined with polluted water and fertilizers that have washed off of farmlands, have created the huge growth of algae(海藻) on the ocean’s surface.
Last year, 1,101 manatees died from starving. 20 Many of the manatees that remain are so thin that their ribs can be seen.Often they have trouble swimming.
So last December, wildlife experts came up with a plan to get emergency food to the manatees. They decided to feed them green vegetables like lettuce and cabbage. In the long term, Florida is working to help restore seagrass beds. But that will take time.
A. That was a record.
B. They can weigh up to 590 kilograms.
C. The feeding station has been very successful.
D. With protection, manatees managed to bounce back.
E. It blocks the sunlight that allows the seagrass to grow.
F. But feeding these massive sea creatures takes a lot of food.
G. Research needs to be done to determine what food would be best.

After you provide your name, share why you and the speech are relevant, making sure you provide something believable. 18 If you're giving a speech about the importance of eating organic foods, tell people that you're a scientist, chef, or environmental professional. If you’re giving a speech about child development, be sure to include that you are a child psychologist.
Communicate effectively.From the very start, make sure your voice is loud enough for everyone to hear you. You can even ask the audience if you are speaking loudly enough for all to hear. 19

Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner.” One reason was: “You'll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym,” while another read: “ 16 ” With a workout partner, you will increase your training effort as there is a subtle(微妙) competition.
So, how do you find a workout partner?
First of all, decide what you want from that person. 17 Or do you just want to be physically fit, able to move with strength and flexibility? Think about the exercises you would like to do with your workout partner.
You might think about posting what you are looking for on social media, but it probably won't result in a useful response. 18 If you plan on working out in a gym, that person must belong to the same gym.
My partner posted her request on the notice board of a local park. Her notice included what kind of training she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. 19
You and your partner will probably have different skills. 20 Over time, both of you will benefit-your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit. The core(核心) of your relationship is that you will always be there to help each other.
A. Your first meeting may be a little awkward.
B. A workout partner usually needs to live close by.
C. You'll work harder if you train with someone else.
D. Do you want to be a better athlete in your favorite sport?
E. How can you write a good “seeking training partner” notice?
F. Just accept your differences and learn to work with each other.
G. Any notice for a training partner should include such information.
