Last Wednesday, the teachers and students in Senior Three as well as our parents attended the grown-up ceremony holding in the school hall, which theme was “Growth and Responsibility”. First, a student representing all of us made the speech. He showed our thanks to our parents and teachers and talk about our dreams. Then, some teachers and parents offered us their congratulation and expressed their expectations for their future. Afterwards, wonderful performances put on by students from different classes. Though the ceremony is over, but it has made me realize clear that I have grown up. I am ready to devote more for our society now.

People who are at your age, like your classmates, are called peers (同龄人). When they try to influence how you act or to get you to do something, it's called peer pressure.1.
Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked, to fit in or because they worry that other kids might make fun of them if they don't go along with the group.2.The idea that everyone's doing it can influence some kids to leave their better judgment or their common sense behind.
3.But you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.
It can really help to have at least one other peer or friend who is willing to say ''no'' too.4.It's great to have friends with values similar to yours. If you choose friends who don't use drugs, smoke cigarettes or lie to their parents, then you probably won't do these things either, even if other kids do.
Even if you're faced with peer pressure while you're alone, there are still things you can do. You can simply stay away from peers who pressure you to do things you know is wrong.5.Better yet, find other friends and classmates.
A.Just believe in yourself.
B.You can tell them ''no'' and walk away.
C.Peer pressure is not always a bad thing.
D.This makes it much easier to overcome peer pressure.
E.It's something everyone has to deal with - even adults.
F.It is hard to be the only one who says ''no'' to peer pressure.
G.Others go along because they are curious to try something new.
What do the random, scribbled (潦草的)drawings crowding the margins (页边空白处) of most high school students' papers mean? When a student is caught doodling (乱画) in class, he will probably be criticized for daydreaming. But doodling while listening can help with remembering details, rather than implying that the mind is wandering, according to a study published in the scientific journal Applied Cognitive Psychology.
In an experiment conducted by the Medical Research Council’s Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit in Cambridge, 40 subjects were asked to listen to a two-minute tape giving several names of people and places. Half of the participants were asked to shade in shapes on a piece of paper at the same time, without paying attention to neatness, while the rest were given no such instructions. After the tape had finished, all participants in the study were asked to recall the names of people and places. The doodlers recalled on average 7.5 names of people and places, compared to only 5.8 by the non-doodlers.
“If someone is doing a boring task, like listening to a dull telephone conversation, they may start to daydream.” said study researcher, Professor Jackie Andrade, of the School of Psychology, University of Plymouth. “Daydreaming distracts them from the task, resulting in poorer performance. A simple task, like doodling, may be sufficient (足够的) to stop daydreaming without affecting performance on the main task.”
“In psychology, tests of memory or attention will often use a second task to selectively block a particular mental process. If that process is important for the main task, then performance will be impaired. But my research suggests that in everyday life doodling may be something we do because it helps to keep us on track with a boring task, rather than being an unnecessary distraction (分心) that we should try to resist doing.” said Andrade.
Dan Ware, a social study teacher, used to consider doodling a distraction from learning, but after teaching kids with all personality types he learned scribbling away during lectures helps certain students remember more information. “In my first few years of teaching, I thought, ‘Well, this kid isn’t paying attention. He’s daydreaming.’ But I had some really powerful experiences with students and came to understand in many cases that was their way of focusing, and those students were probably paying more attention than other students.” Ware said.
