How do young people learn best？This is something I think a lot when I am teaching foreign languages to young people.I often1that traditional teaching 2 are hardly effective for young brains to learn a foreign language.

After moving to southern Italy，I was3to have had the chance to run a private course teaching English to children under 7.I4children liked singing and enjoyed games so I wanted to use these tools to help my students5 English conversation skills. I found some fun and6songs online，which they loved very much. I also found the English version of some nursery rhymes(童谣) they once were familiar with. All of them were very entertaining and helpful but7 could still not have a basic conversation in English.

I wanted these students to be8in the language I was teaching and I also wished them to speak it.

A new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exams than those who use laptops．

Students are increasingly using laptops for notetaking because of speed and legibility(清晰度)．But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught.

Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes “mindlessly” by taking down word for word what the professors said.

In the first experiment, students were given either a laptop or pen and paper. They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual notetaking skills. Thirty minutes after the talk, they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts.

The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand. However, the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts. Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts.

The researchers' report said, “While more notes are beneficial, if the notes are taken mindlessly, as is more likely the case on a laptop, the benefit disappears.”

In another experiment aimed at testing longterm memory, students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture. This time, the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exam.

These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding, but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.

On August 25，Hurricane Harvey made landfall in Southern Texas. The storm lasted for days, pouring almost 52 inches of rain. The downpour has caused widespread flooding，forcing more than 32，000 people into shelters and damaging the city's water supply system.

The onlysilver liningis that disasters like these seemed to unite people. While the number of organizations and individuals that have gone all out to assist the victims is too many to list，here are some highlights of the outpouring of support that has made headlines this past week.

A week ago，NFL player JJ Watt set up a website with a goal to raise $200，000.Soon he has collected over $18 million，and the donations keep pouring in. The thrilled football star wants to ensure the money is used where needed，saying，“We're trying to make sure it goes directly to the people. So our first wave of operation is we'll have nice semitrucks going out there and I will go straight into the communities and hand stuff out there.”

Ordinary individuals are not shying away from helping either. Jim McIngvale，the owner of a furniture store, turned his two 100，000squarefoot warehouse into shelters. When asked if he was concerned about the furniture that was being used by those living there，he responded“These people are nice. They're taking care of the furniture. Furniture's made to be sat on，slept on or laid on. It's just a product.”

There are also many unsung heroes that are putting their lives at risk to help others. After discovering an elderly man trapped inside his truck，local people made a human chain through the dangerous water to drag him to safety.

While there is not much anyone could have done to prevent the loss，people across the US are doing everything they can to help its people recover.

When I was sixteen years old，I made my first visit to the United States. It wasn't the first time I had been abroad. Like most English children，I learned French at school. And I had often been to France，so I was used to speaking a foreign language to people who didn't understand English. But when I went to America，I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language problems.

How wrong I was！The misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to give my American friend Daisy a call and tell her that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked if he could help me.

“Yes”，I said，“I want to give my friend a ring.”

“Well，that's nice，”he said，“Are you getting married？But aren't you a bit young？”

“Who is talking about marriage？”I replied. “I only want to give my friend a ring to tell her I've arrived. Can you tell me where there is a phone box？”

“Oh！”he said，“There is a phone downstairs.”

When at last we met，Daisy explained the misunderstanding to me.

“Don't worry，”she said to me. “I had so many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from British. You'll soon get used to all the funny things they say. Most of the time，British and American people understand each other！”

Movies have documented America for more than one hundred years. Since Thomas Edison introduced the movie camera in 1893, amateur and professional moviemakers have used moving pictures to tell stories and explain the work of business and government. By preserving these movies, we will save a century of history.

Unfortunately, movies are not made to last. Already the losses are high. Only 20% of US feature films from the 1910s to 1920s survive. Of the American features produced before 1950, about half exist. For independently produced works, we have no way of knowing how much has been lost.

For many libraries and museums, the hardest step in preserving movie collections is getting started.TheMoviePreservationGuideis designed for these organizations. These institutions have collections of moving pictures but lack information about how to take care of them. The Guide contains basic facts for “beginners”—professionals trained in history but unschooled in this technical area.

The Guide grew from user workshops at Duke University. At the sessions, beginners talked with technical experts about what they needed to know to preserve and make available their movie collections.

Following the advice, the Guide describes methods for handling and storing moving pictures that are practical for research institutions with limited resources.The Guide has been translated into Chinese, Japanese and Korean.

A．“Keep it simple！” was the advice of the discussions.

B．They'll be damaged within years if not properly stored.

C．These organizations are the first to save American movies.

D．It is organized in chapters and includes case studies and charts.

E．It introduces movie preservation to nonprofit and public institutions.

F．They show how generations of Americans have lived, worked and dreamed.

G．They store the original movies and new ones under coolanddry conditions.

Eric was working in a selling business. He had been on the road visiting people for more than a month without going home. He couldn't wait to get back to see his wife and children. It was coming up on Mother's Day, and he usually tried to make it “back home”， but this year he was just too busy and too tired. The day when he was driving in a small town, he saw a flower shop. He said to himself, “I know what I will do, I'll send my mother some roses.”

He stopped and went into the flower shop and saw a young man talking to the girl in it “How many roses can I get for fifty dollars，Ms.？” the boy asked. The girl was trying to explain that roses were expensive. Maybe the young man would be happy with something else.

“No. I have to have roses，” he said, “my mom was badly sick last year and I didn't get to spend much time with her. I want to get something special. It has to be red roses, because that is her favourite.” He was stubborn.

The girl in the shop looked up at Eric and was just shaking her head. Something inside of Eric was touched by the boy's voice. He wanted to get those roses so badly. Eric had been blessed(幸运的)in his business, and he looked at the girl and silently said that he would pay for the boy's roses.

The girl looked at the young man and said, “OK, I will give you a dozen red roses for your dollars.” The young man almost jumped into the air. He took the flowers and ran down the store. It was worth more than fifty dollars just to see that kind of excitement.

Eric ordered his own flowers and asked the girl to have it delivered to his mother. After that, with a relief he drove down the road. Not long after his driving, he saw the boy walking to a graveyard(墓地)．

Paragraph 1：

Eric stopped his car and followed the young man.

Paragraph 2：

Eric went into the car in tears.
