My name is Timo Halla. I live in Helsinki, Finland. Every Tuesday, I usually get up at 7:40. After breakfast, I walk to school. It's only a 10-minute walk. My school at 9:00. Each lesson 45 minutes long, and there's a break between lessons. I have one Finnish lesson and two home economics in the morning.

I like all the subjects, but my favourite is maths. I like it I'm good with numbers. We learn how to work out math problems in class. Math is very in our life, and I want to be a in the future.

I'm Mike, a student at Star Middle School. Let me (introduce) my school to you.

We start from the school hall. It's a big room in the front of the campus. All the school meetings are held here. Then we walk to the Science Building, which is behind the hall. There are many (lab) in it. Students (do) science experiments there every day. Behind the Science Building is the Sports Center, and I can (play) sports there after school.

At last, we go to the classroom. My classmates are all very (friend). I think you will have a great time at this school!

When I moved to a new city with my parents, I had to join a new junior high school in Grade Nine. It was a top school, and everyone seemed to be1 at their studies. On my first day, I stood outside the classroom, feeling nervous and unsure. I didn't know anyone, and I was afraid I couldn't2 up with the others.

As the teacher led me into the classroom, all eyes turned to me. I felt my face turn red and my hands shake. The teacher asked me to introduce myself, but my voice was so low that almost no one could hear. After that, I sat in the last row3, too afraid to talk to anyone. During the first class, the math teacher wrote difficult problems on the blackboard. I tried hard to follow, but I couldn't understand most of them. I started to4 about falling behind.

Just then, a girl next to me leaned over and passed me a piece of paper. On it were clear notes she had taken. "Don't worry," she whispered with a smile. "I can5 you review after class." Her name was Lily, and she was the top student in our class. After class, she explained the math problems to me. She used simple words and drew pictures to make it easier to understand. Weeks later, our class had a group project about environmental protection. I was6 to join a group because I thought no one would want me. But Lily came over and said, "Come with us! Your ideas are important." In the group, I tried to share my thoughts, and everyone listened carefully. With their7, I became more confident. I even volunteered to give our group's presentation.

Now, I'm no longer the lonely new student. I have made many friends, and my grades have improved a lot. I know that without Lily's kindness and help, I would have8 up easily. It's true that a little help from others can make a big difference. No matter how hard the new environment is, we can always find warmth if we open our hearts.

"Does anyone have any questions?" Mrs. White asked her class.

"How do you know what to write about?" David asked.

"Well, sometimes I don't," the writer replied. He pulled a book from a bag on the floor. "I find making a scrapbook (剪贴簙) helps."

David thought about the writer's scrapbook as he walked home and decided to have his own one. After supper, he cut some pictures out of some newspapers. He cut and pasted (粘贴) stories from his magazines (杂志). Then he looked up the words he did not know and wrote down their meanings. In the days that followed, David collected more ideas.

One morning, Mrs. White told the class about a writing competition. David wanted to win. He wondered if he had found enough ideas to make a good story.

That night, David looked through his scrapbook. He picked a setting for his story from a picture. He used the name from an article for his character. David's story started to grow. He worked on it until it came time to hand in the story.

David waited for his teachers to pick the winner, but his story did not win. "I know you are disappointed (失望的), David," Ms. White said. "I want you to know I really liked your story, and you made it difficult to pick a winner. Your story might not be the best in the class this time, but it is your best work so far." David smiled at Mrs. White and felt proud of himself. He went to congratulate his classmate Betty on her winning story. Maybe she would tell him where she got her story ideas.

I have three exams next week. So, I'll spend most of the weekend studying. I'm worried about the exams, but they aren't the only thing I'm worried about. Like most people, I'm worried about missing out on all the fun activities my friends will do.

I have serious FOMO—fear (害怕) of missing out. It is the feeling or idea that you are missing out on something important or enjoyable that others are experiencing. And a big part of FOMO is the feeling that your friends won't miss you when you're not there.

FOMO is a pretty common feeling, especially when people are going out more. Social media (社交媒体) makes it even worse. It's easy to see other people doing fun things while you're doing something boring. Don't get me wrong—I also do fun things, but I still get caught up in FOMO.

Worst of all, I feel like I'm missing out on things I don't even want to do. Even though I don't want to go to a party, I still get FOMO when I think about my friends who are already there. When you feel like you're missing out, it can be hard to decide if you even wanted to go out in the first place. It can make you do things you don't want to. No one wants to miss a joke or see all the pictures when they weren't there. But it's important to take a step back and think about it. Would you have suggested that activity? Do you really want to go, or do you want to go because your friends are going? Do you have something else you'd rather be doing?

Even though FOMO can be harmful to your life, it can also have some good benefits. I know a lot of people who joined clubs or took up new hobbies because their friends did. A lot of these clubs and hobbies have made people happy, including me. In that way, I owe (归功于) some of my school experience to FOMO.

So it's best to avoid FOMO as much as possible. The best thing to do is to check in with yourself and notice how you feel. If you have a good reason for not doing something, don't worry too much about missing out. Do what's best for you, even if that means uninviting yourself from a plan. Your friends are your friends for a reason—they won't forget about you.

You're not alone. Many of us don't have a process toprioritize tasks and always feel like we're playing catch-up. We fail to decide what's the most important task even when everything on the to-do list feels important. But we can get ahead of the game and stay on top of deadlines with some simple methods to set priorities and manage our workload.

Here's a simple way to prioritize our daily tasks and focus (专注) on the work that matters most: Of all the things we now have the energy for, do the thing we're normally least likely to do. If we have two live frogs (青蛙) to eat for breakfast, the idea is to eat the ugliest one as early as possible.

There are several ways this trick (技巧) can benefit us.

Doing something we rarely (很少) do is energizing. You do a behavior like washing your windows that you never do. Having clean windows won't change your life but it challenges your conception of yourself. It influences how we see ourselves. Getting our body moving gives us energy and can improve our focus.

Unfamiliar behaviors often provide more chances to help us grow than familiar ones. When I write for a new publication, it's with a new editor. I get different feedback. I need to change my style to match the style of that publication, so I develop my skills. In this way we'll expand (发展) ourselves, our skills, and our future opportunities.

Some people react to anxiety by working hard on very comfortable behaviors but pay no attention to uncomfortable tasks that are a higher priority. The way of prioritizing helps prevent us from doing that. It makes it harder to fool ourselves that we're being productive by doing busywork that's super comfortable for us but has little chance of changing our life.

Should we use this trick all the time? No. This is a good tip for when we've got energy, but we're swimming in thoughts about all the things we could do, and we're having trouble deciding and focusing.

Priorities are great. Knowing our priorities reduces stress, helps us focus and can also improve productivity and time management. But remember to be realistic about how much work we can actually do each day. When we prioritize our work properly, we're sure to have a good day.

When kids do strength training, their muscles grow, which makes them stronger. It also makes their bones, joints and body systems healthier. It's really good for their bodies.

Becca Rigg is a fitness teacher at a sports center. She knows the good things about strength training. She takes her kids to do strength training 2 to 3 times a week. "I like that teens feel more confident after doing this exercise. They're happy when they see they're getting stronger. Sometimes they make strength training part of their life, and it's easier to keep doing it later," says Rigg.

To start strength training, it's very important to learn the right way from an experienced coach. The coach can make sure kids do the movements safely and correctly. At first, teens can use their own body weight (like doing push-ups or squats). Later, they can make it harder with equipment (like a barbell).

So, let's cheer our kids on as they lift, pull, and push their way to a stronger future. With our support and care, they'll grow up ready to take on whatever life throws at them.
