I had mixed feelings today, nervous, worried, happy, excited. .. My heart went down when Miss Chan, our head teacher, said that Matthew and Beth, two students from England, would spend three months with us! I was worried that I had to speak English so much! But at the end of the school day, I was happier than I thought: The morning with them today was more enjoyable than I expected.
Today is the most unforgettable first day I have had! Matthew is fantastic! His English is clearer and easier to listen to than I thought. The other English student, Beth, is the most helpful girl I' ve ever met. There were lots of things to do on the first day. Beth offered to help Miss Chan put up all the notices. Of course, some of the credit(功劳) should also go to me because I translated some of the notices for her. Miss Chan praised us!
We finished all the preparations 10 minutes earlier than expected, then Beth and I talked for a while. Matthew sang several English songs and did some stand- up comedy(单人喜剧表演) at the party. We all praised him. When the bell rang to end the first school day, none of us wanted to leave.
When I went back home, I had a little headache. I have probably spoken more English today than the whole of last year.
It was really a happy day! I hope our friendship can continue, even after they have gone back to England!

My dear boys and girls, good morning. Today I'm going to talk to you about my understanding of learning history.
1 You may often wonder why we students should study something that has nothing to do with our own lives. If you think that way, I should say you are far from the truth.
In fact, if we study history, we can learn quite a lot about personal stories and events(事件). 2 Studying the past helps us to understand what our ancestors'(祖先) lives were like. And it also helps us to see how their experiences have shaped our own life.
To be honest, not everything that happened in the past is good. Some of them helps us understand the mistakes of the past. And these mistakes will help people not to do the same wrong things. 3
Whether we like the subject of history or not, we must understand the importance of the events and the people who came before us. And the decisions of our
own generation(一代人) will finally influence those who come after us. 4
History is not just a study of the past. History is the study of people, places, and events
that can influence the future.
5 Or do you have any doubt(疑问) about learning history If you have any question, just feel free to ask.
A. In this only way, the world is truly connected.
B. The mistakes of the past won't help us.
C. Now do you still think studying history is a sad thing
D. Many of you may think it is a terrible thing to study history.
E. Their ideas often solved many of our problems and troubles.
F. People often learn from the past to have a better future.
