The summer sun is out, and we're beginning to feel the heat. Before you go outside to have fun, make sure you put on the right things!
Do you know what kind of clothes can make you look hot and keep you cool? Here are some ideas for clothes to help you look great.
Fun colors and cartoons are back from the 1980s this year; the dirty look is out. People will be looking for fresh bright colors this summer. Girls in pink look cute and sweet. And green makes everyone look more lively. Some of the best colours are cotton candy pink and lime green. These soft colours go well with jeans or just about anything else. As soon as you put on one of these colours, you'll feel like a star!
Some girls like something more interesting than all solid(单一的) colours. For them, there are lots of floral patterns (花卉图案) to choose from in shirts, dresses or skirts. A floral shirt looks nice with a light-coloured solid skirt or trousers.
Of course, jeans are in for boys. If you get too hot, try something lighter, like khaki cargo pants. They'll have enough pockets to keep everything you need for studying, playing and keeping cool! Army green is all the rage(盛行) this year.

On the first day of school our professor introduced himself and asked us to get to know someone we didn’t know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. “Hi, girl! My name is Rose, I’m 87 years old.”
“Why are you in college at such a young age?” I asked jokingly.
“I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!”she replied. Rose became a college symbol(象征) this year and she easily on her from the other students.
At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football party. I’ll never forget what she taught us.
“We do not stop playing because we are old, we grow old because we stop playing. There are only two secrets to staying young, being happy and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humour every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose you dreams, you die!” she said.
“There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do anything, you will turn 20 years older. If I am 87 years old, and stay in bed for a year, and never do anything, I will turn 88. Anybody can grow older. But every minute counts for young men,” she added.
She ended her speech by singing The Song of Rose. She challenged each of us to study the lyrics and live then out in our daily lives.
At the year’s end, Rose finished the college education she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose did peacefully in her sleep.

When I was in primary school，I got into a major(主要的) argument with a boy in my class. I can't 1 what it was about，but I have never forgotten the 2 I learned that day.
I was sure that I was right and he was wrong－and he strongly believed that I was wrong and he was right. The 3 decided to teach us a very important lesson. She 4 both of us up to the 5 of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the 6 of her desk was a large，round object. I could 7 see that it was black. She asked the boy what 8 the object was. "White," he answered in a loud voice.
I couldn't believe he said the object was white, 9 it was obviously black！Another 10 started between my classmate and me，this 11 about the color of the object.
The teacher told me to go stand where the boy was standing and told him to come stand where I had been. We changed 12 ，and now she asked me what the color of the object was. I 13 answer，"White." It was an object with two 14 colored sides，and from his side it was white. 15 from my side was it black.
My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day：You must stand in the other person's shoes and look at the situation through their eyes in order to truly understand their view.
