The American book Who Moved My Cheese（奶酪）has been a bestseller all over the world. It teaches people how to face changes in their lives. It is a book just for teens. The book tells us that when facing changes in our lives, like a new school or new friends, don't be afraid. Instead, use this change to make a better life.
The book gives an example of a change at school. A school is changing from having two terms to three terms because there are too many students. Several kids are talking about this. Most of them are unhappy and worried. But Chris is not. He laughs and tells a story about two mice（老鼠）, two "little people” and some cheese.
The four are in a maze（迷宫）looking for the cheese. Here, cheese means something important in life, like moving to a new class or getting into college. But they find the cheese is gone. The mice realize that they can't change what has happened and have to find more cheese. This means finding different dreams. The little people, however, can't do this. They are afraid of changes so they find no cheese.
After Chris finishes the story, the friends understand one thing: to get more cheese, move in a new direction quickly. His friends understand how this can be used in the changes all teens face, such as doing well at school or having good relationships or just feeling good about yourself.

However, when we ask some students about online classes, most students don' t seem to like them. Only 33 percent（百分比）of students would take such classes.

Lian prepares a lot before taking her online classes. She also does her best to answer the teachers. 38
But Wen Jiayi from Chengdu thinks online interaction（互动）isn't enough. " 39 When I don't hand in homework, all I get is a short message instead of real care," she said.
However, online classes do have advantages（优势）. “ 40 Also, if I don't understand some parts of a lesson, I can watch it over and over again," Lian said.

六、One possible version:
First, we can send messages and chat with our friends face to face. Second, it' s easy for us to get all kinds of information on the cell phone. Third, we can also shop online, watch movies and listen to music.
However, the phone also causes some problems. Some students spend too much time playing games on the phone. When students play games too long, it is bad for their eyes. At the same time, it is bad for their study, too.
In my opinion, students should use phones properly.
