At the beginning of this term, we had to stay at home and take online lessons.
Every morning, I turned 1. my computer and logged onto Ding Talk to have my lessons. We could listen to our teachers and see 2.(they) faces at the same time.
As for me, online education has many good 3.(point). First, it is easy and 4.(help). If I can't understand any part, I can watch it again and again u5. I totally understand it. 6.(Two), teachers can choose proper video lessons on the Internet for us to learn. This provides us 7.(many) methods to learn than before. Third, we can do a lot on the online classroom. For example, I once 8.(discuss) a very difficult maths problem with three of my classmates. To my s9., we each found a method to work it out.
It's such 10. special experience that we will never forget. What do you think of online education?
As we have known, learning strategies are a common topic of language learning. But what are learning strategies? They are the methods that learners choose to learn. Here are several examples of language learning strategies.
Guess a new word’s meaning in the sentence. This is a basic language skill for students. There is an example: When you first meet the new English word “insist”, you can guess its meaning in the sentence, “His mother didn’t allow him to go with us, but he insisted on coming with us.”
Cooperate with partners. Work with other language learners to improve language skills. When you need to practice spoken English and try to have a real communication, you’d better find a partner to work in group.
Know about background knowledge before reading. Try to find more information about the passage and its writer. It is useful for us to understand the main idea, writing purpose and also the feelings of the writer.
Make a note of what you should improve. It is more important to know where you are but not what you know. In this way, you can find what you need to improve and further find a way to improve your study. This is also the most important ability for self-study.
It’s important for learners to know about different strategies. In fact, more able learners use different kinds of learning strategies.

Sounds are everywhere. You have two cool parts — ears on your body that can let you hear the sounds.
The ear is made up of three different parts: the outer ear, the middle ear and the inner ear. These parts all work together so you can hear sounds.
The outer ear is the part that you can see. It moves the sound waves(波浪) to the part of the ear inside the head. Inside your ear, you have an eardrum(耳膜). The eardrum is a thin piece of skin. Sound waves push against the eardrum. This makes the eardrum vibrate. When it vibrates, it moves its tiny bones. The bones help sounds move along to the inner ear. Then you can hear the sounds.
Ears are very useful. With the help of your ears, you can hear any sound. Maybe the sound is as quiet as your cat. Maybe it is so loud, like a plane flying by. Hearing is one of the most important senses, and it allows you to communicate, to learn and to enjoy things like music.
Believe it or not, your ears can help you keep balance. If there’s something wrong with your ears, you may fall down easily.
Therefore, ears should be protected well. We should protect our ears from loud noises in the daily life: When you listen to music with headphones on, make sure that the sound is not too loud. Remember to take breaks after listening for a while and let your ears have a good rest.

Once there was a poor young musician. He played the violin well, but he couldn't make enough money to buy much food to eat.
One evening he was eating a little rice and fish for his only meal—supper. A thin white cat came up beside him and the cat looked very hungry. Feeling sorry for the cat, the musician gave it his rice and fish, while he went to sleep hungry that night.
The next evening, there was a storm. The musician took shelter（躲避）under a large tree next to a big house. Thunder made a loud noise and lightning lit up the sky.
The musician looked toward the house and the warm lights inside. On the doorstep sat the white cat from the night before. It raised a small white paw(爪)as if to beckon（召唤）the musician to come over! Then he ran into the yard. A man opened the door and invited the musician inside.
Minutes later, a large branch fell to the place where he'd been because of the lightning. Inside the house, the musician ate a delicious meal with the man. Then the man asked the musician what was in his case, and the musician took out his violin and began playing. The man clapped with pleasure. "Luck has brought you here tonight!" he said.

Dear friends,
I’m Xiaofei—on Douyin. Welcome to cook with me. Today I want to show how to make my favorite salad.
My dear mom passed down this recipe(食谱). It is called Ambrosia Salad, and it’s also my family’s favorite.
First, choose your favorite fruit. Use fruit in season. Make sure it is fresh. Besides, use fruit of different colors and try to make your fruit salad look as good as it tastes. For example, mixing apples, green pears, purple grapes and oranges together will make the salad look very colorful. I think the strawberries are a great addition! I especially like this in spring!
Then, put some salad dressing and mix the fruit and salad dressing together. If you want to give a special taste to your salad, you can also put in a quarter cup of peanut which is cut into pieces.
Make the fruit salad just before you are going to eat it. Some of the fruit will quickly turn brown when you leave it in the air for some time.
Don’t wait anymore, and try to do it yourself. If you like this recipe, please give me 5 stars.
