Find a Family Favorite．Which book did your mother love best when she was at your age? 4.. Find out and give them a read-then you can share your thoughts about the book．
Finally，you'll probably enjoy what you're reading a lot more if you find a quiet place and make time for the book. 5.. You can put on some good music, get yourself some tea and let yourself be carried away by the book. You'll see that time does fly when you're reading something you love!

In the US, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available, even if a large one is. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them.
At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill（填充）.
Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.
Serving in restaurants is often large, too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a “doggie bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself.

"Depend on(依靠) yourself" is what nature says to every man. Parents can help you. Teachers can help you. But all these only help you to help yourself.
There have been many men in history. But many of them were very poor in childhood, and no uncles, aunts or friends to help them. Schools were few. They could not depend upon themselves for an education. They saw how it was and set to work with all their strength to know something. They worked their own way till they became well known.
One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, "I can not make worthy men of you, but I can help make men of yourself."
Some young men don't try their best to make themselves valuable to the human beings. They can never gain achievement(成就) unless they see their weak points and change their course. They are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as they live, unless they accept the advice of their parents and teachers, and depend on their own efforts.

Thirty years ago I worked in a company. My job was to sell the cars. I was young and strong and I had been to most parts of the world and I spent one fifth of my time in the trains or planes. I liked such a life and sometimes I called myself "traveler".
But one day I got into trouble. It was a cold morning. It blew heavily and the ground was covered with thick snow outside. I was still in bed though it was nine. I finished a long journey the day before and decided to have a good rest. Suddenly the telephone rang and my manager told me to fly to New York to take part in an important meeting.

When I was in the primary school, I often met with problems which I could not work out on my own, especially in English and arithmetic. So I downloaded an online educational app named Zuoyebang. Since then, I have been using several kinds of such software, for example, Xuebajun and Haofenshu. Whenever I have a problem, I will turn to them. As a result, my study has been progressing steadily. I will strongly recommend these apps to my friends.

After entering the senior high, I found I had more and more difficulty learning maths and English. As many online learning products are quite popular among other students, my parents subscribed to one for me too. After that, however, I feel as if I were going to two schools, one real-world school and one online school. Every day I have endless exercises to do and feel very tired. Worse still, I feel I have lost interest in my study now. What shall I do?
