Dad’s birthday usually falls in June, near Father’s Day. Last year, they were even on the same day. I thought this was unfair for my dad to only have one special day in June.

I talk to my mom about cooking a breakfast for Dad. She showed to me how to cook eggs and make bread. I made special card for Dad. I was careful to keep my plan secretly. One day in October, I woke up early, cooked Dad’s breakfast and took it to his room with my card. She loved the surprise very much.

As a student, it’s important to find a balance between your schoolwork and your social life. 1.
Create a time budget.
Budgeting your time can help you plan out your days. Drawing up a timetable based on upcoming events is a great way to spend each day. 2. Keep in mind that your time budget should allow for flexibility (灵活性). There is no way to guarantee (保证) that your homework will take exactly two hours.
3.
Many students choose to support themselves during their education. If you are working and studying at the same time, it can be difficult to find time for friends and socialization. 4. It can help you find a balance between school and socialization even if your time is very limited.
Take care of your health.
Poor health can make time spent either at school or with friends much less enjoyable. When you feel healthy and energized, you will be able to give your education and your friends your full attention. Get eight hours of sleep each night. Go to bed and wake up at the same time each day, even on weekends. 5. All of these will help you avoid becoming ill.
Learning how to manage your time is not only useful throughout your education, it is also a valuable skill that you will need long after you earn your degree.
A.Balance your family life.
B.Find a social part-time job.
C.Eat a diet with all the food you need for good health.
D.A job that you enjoy attending will help you stay energetic.
E.Find a job that allows you to socialize with customers and co-workers.
F.In this article, you’ll discover a few helpful methods for time management.
G.It helps you spend enough time on both schoolwork and your family and friends.
There’s a small problem with a working holiday: working.
It seems like a fantastic idea. You picture yourself learning a foreign culture, meeting locals and making friends. What you don’t picture is the actual work.
Some people manage to keep a fine balance between working and holidaying. I’ve met plenty of working holidaymakers who are holding high-paying jobs that not only allow them to live in style, but that they also enjoy. Great.
For most working holidaymakers, however, that’s a daydream. You’re not working overseas to further your career — you’re working overseas to further your travelling expenses. And besides, most serious employers will take one look at that year-long visa (签证), and laugh you out of the building.
So you end up doing some of the jobs I’ve done.
Fruit picking. I did mine in the north of Scotland, which wasn’t satisfying, given it’s a place with a summer in name only.
Strawberries are a pain. It’s a case of bending your back for about eight hours straight. Lettuces aren’t much better. Again, more back bending.
Is picking fruit a nice way to spend a holiday? No.
So I became a line cook at a restaurant in Edinburgh. There, because there were no formal training systems in Scotland, I was handed a white jacket and referred to as a “chef (厨师)”. And as a “chef”, I would pull out boxes of frozen chicken tikka masala (冷冻香料烤鸡咖喱), putting them in the microwave until they were just so.
Again, not what you’d call a fun way to spend a holiday.
So when you’re planning a working holiday, it’s worth thinking about what you’re actually going to be doing, since that’s how you’ll spend your time while you’re away.
Is it going to be enjoyable? Will you be able to meet people, make friends? Is it going to allow you the time and money to do other things, see other places while you’re there?
Remember, it’s not a working holiday if you spend all your time working — it’s just work.

Steel Vengeance, a world-record-breaking hybrid roller coaster, recently made its first public appearance at Cedar Point Amusement Park in Sandusky, Ohio.
The ride is constructed from both wood and steel (钢). A steel running track on a huge wooden base allows the ride to provide the types of twists (扭转) and turns that are not possible on wooden roller coasters.
Steel Vengeance breaks ten world records, including tallest, fastest, and longest hybrid roller coaster. “It is just a roller coaster that you want to ride again and again,” said Tony Clark, director of communications at Cedar Point. The 90-degree, 200-foot drop on the first hill takes your breath away.
At a recent event at Cedar Point, I experienced the excitement of the new ride first-hand. Thanks to my strong heart, I had a really cool time!
THE MAKING OF VENGEANCE
“The biggest part of making a roller coaster is planning it,” Clark said.
Jason McClure, general manager of Cedar Point, added: “We have to get a main idea of the basics of the coaster and then plan a budget.”
WOOD, STEEL, AND HARD WORK
Rocky Mountain Construction designed and built Steel Vengeance. About 1.2 million pounds of steel and 1.4 million boards of wood were used to build the ride.
Fred Grubb, co-founder of Rocky Mountain, noted that “people who design roller coasters for my company have to have first-hand experience building things with their hands, not just hold an engineering degree. When you have built things for yourself, you get it, and understand what will work.”
Clark was pleased with the results. “We at Cedar Point are so happy with how Steel Vengeance turned out,” he said.
McClure added: “What we put into this roller coaster was wood, steel, and a lot of hard work.”
1.What can we learn about Steel Vengeance?
A.It is going through tests.
B.It belongs to Rocky Mountain.
C.It is made from both steel and wood.
D.It was mainly designed by Fred Grubb.
2.What advantage does Steel Vengeance have over wooden roller coasters?
A.It will last longer.
B.It cost less money.
C.It took less time to build.
D.It offers more kinds of twists.
3.How did the author feel on Steel Vengeance?
A.Worried.
B.Excited.
C.Frightened.
D.Shocked.
4.People who design roller coasters for Rocky Mountain must _____.
A.hold an arts degree
B.be roller coaster lovers
C.be skillful at wood work
D.have built things themselves
