Dear Sue,

I have so many things to do every day. Besides my schoolwork every weekday, I go to a chess club twice a week. I often have to help my younger cousin. She just started primary school and has some difficulties in Maths. On top of all that, I have classes in dance, piano, art. . I like doing lots of different things, but Tm so busy! Yesterday, I fell asleep during class. I was so embarrassed.

What should I do? Can you help me?

A Tired Girl

Dear Tired Girl,

Sorry to hear about your trouble. You are such a busy kid!

I think you should take some time to think carefully about your plan. You can list all the things you need to do each week in a notebook. Can you do all of these things and get enough rest to stay healthy? If not, decide what things must be done and what can be dropped from your list.

Here are some other tips that may help you:

●Plan your study time for each subject and do a review every weekend.

●Organize your notes right after classes.

●Take a few minutes every evening to check how your plan is going.

Making a good plan is half the work itself.

Best of luck

Sue

Recently, an elderly woman touched many people's hearts. She was honored (给与奖励) as a role model in China's fight against poverry (贫穷). Her name is Xia Sen.

Over the past years, 98-year-old Xia Sen has given away most of her personal savings to help students from poor families in Danfeng, Shaanxi, and Shangyou, Jiangxi get an education.

Some students who got Xia's scholarship went to Xia's home to visit her in 2018. To their surprise, Xia and her husband led a very simple life. "I was moved by Granny Xia and her husband, ""one student said.

Though Xia and her husband have given away most of their savings to help the poor students, they always say that what they have done is far from enough. Xia often says her life is much better than her life in Yan'an. Now her only hope is that she can help more students.
