Now I want to share some tips on my learning English to you. What really help me is watching English TV programs and film. They don’t have to be anything really difficult. I would like to suggest that you can start with a children’s show you had already seen. On the one hand, you know what is happening. You can concentrate on writing down useful words and phrases or repeating that is said. On other hand, you can hear English speak in a more natural way. In my opinion, I will learn much faster but benefit a lot more if you do so.
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

The main reason why I like her so much is 4. she is one of the kindest teachers I have ever had. Whatever story you want 5. (share), she would always listen 6. (careful) and treat you like a friend rather than a student. The way she wanted us to succeed, the way she expected so much from us… It was obvious that she cared about our dreams and futures. 7.

How Can I Fight Laziness?
Lazy people will never gain anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.
1. Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day.
Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task.2. Laziness appears when you no longer feel in charge of your own mind.
Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations(诱惑) that surround them. A television in the living room may provide entertainment, but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness.3.34. Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy,such as a good dinner or a film.
Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately.5. Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people.
6. Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle, thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.
A. To fight family laziness, set an example.
B. Knowing how to fight laziness is important.
C. One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep.
D. Finally, taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness.
E. With strong determination, you will be able to achieve your goal.
F. Create a reward system for yourself, just as parents do for a child.
G. Others take a more positive approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone.
