The film’s director, Paul Feig, and co-writer, Emma Thompson, promise that the film is worth expecting.

I hate to say sorry, and there’s an unexpected change in my school arrangements. Besides, I’m afraid I cannot keep my appointment to discuss about Chinese paintings with you this Thursday. I sincerely apologized to you for any inconvenience causing by the change. Good news is that an exhibition of Chinese paintings are to be held on Sunday. The exhibits cover works by Qi Baishi, which works have influenced the development of Chinese paintings. I suggest we put off until Sunday because the exhibition is worth the visit. In this way, we can have a discussion while enjoying works from some famous painter. Will that be fine?

Everyone is born with the ability to learn. There are normally two types of learning in our daily life and study — active learning and passive (被动的) learning. 1. This will help you develop a habit of active learning gradually.
2. I bet that no one sits down to read with the purpose of not getting the contents. But I’m sure that some of you have been in a situation, probably more than once, where you read an assignment, closed the book and thought “what the word was about”. 3. Active readers, on the other hand, set goals and check their understanding as they read. When they finish, they can explain the main points and know that they’ve seen what they have read.
Active learners think about information deeply and critically. Being thoughtful is an important part of active learning, because it means that you are analyzing and absorbing the information. 4. For instance, you may make connections between the new information and what you already know, identify concepts that you may not understand very well, or evaluate the importance of what you are reading. An active learner considers constantly in this way. In contrast, passive learners may read the text and listen to lectures and even understand most of what is read and heard. 5.
All in all, behavior of an active learner and a passive one varies greatly. Equipping yourself with study strategies (策略) of active learners may eventually help you become one of them
A.Passive learners won’t be strict with themselves.
B.You need to know some differences between them.
C.In other words, you are processing what you read.
D.However, that important step of reflecting on it is not taken.
E.Active learners accept much of the responsibility for learning.
F.When interacting with the text in this way, you are doing passively.
G.Active learners study with the purpose of grasping and memorizing information.
