Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in his life, he might write them in the diary. But now a teenager may go online and write his daily feelings in a microblog (微博). Not only diaries also microblogs reminds (提醒) the writers of what happened to them a certain day. However, they are not (exact) the same. There are some (difference) between microblogs and diaries.

First of all, microblogs get more attention, while diaries (be) too private. Nowadays people are active in writing microblogs because they want others (read) the things about them as much as possible. Also, a few special or interesting online microblogs can be spread may become famous. As they write more microblogs, their fans may increase as well. Therefore, some people may show the lively moments when they feel happy, some may share the (humour) stories or experiences to make others laugh, and some even write novels (小说) in their microblogs. Besides, it's much more convenient to record your lives in microblogs whenever you like without (carry) a diary.

Of course, if people don't want their feelings to be widely known, keeping diaries is the good (choose).

Help your child build confidence.

Some children find it harder to make friends than others. If your child is shy, they may find it hard to meet new people.You don't have to make ten best friends all at once! Making friends takes time and even just one or two good friends can make a big difference.

Research shows it's important for parents to offer encouragement and guidance about friendships. This can lead to better quality friendships as children grow up. Parents can start to talk to their child about the importance of friendships from a young age.

Encourage your child to talk.

Younger children view friends as somebody you can play with, while older children see friends as people they can trust and can share feelings and thoughts with. Research shows, parents can also help this transition (转变) with advice and encouragement. Encourage your child to express their feelings and talk about what happens at school, so you can work out things together.

Encourage active listening.

You can also encourage your child to be a good and supportive friend.This is about understanding what someone is saying, not simply "hearing" what is said. You can suggest your child takes a deep breath and lets the other child finish what they are trying to say, instead of interrupting (打断) and talking over people.

A. Listen carefully to your child.

B. Let them know it is OK to start small.

C. Talk about the importance of friendship.

D. One way to do this is by being an active listener.

E. How can you make friends in a new environment?

F. How can parents talk to their kids about making friends?

Cool slang changes all the time. Some slang examples, like "what's up?", have been around so long that they have become idioms (习语), or common expressions where the meaning of certain word combinations (组合) are really different from their basic meaning. An example of an idiom is "out of the blue" to show something that happened without warning.

Other slang words are popular, or come from new music, TV, or movies, and are only used for a short time. Knowing how and when to use slang words or college slang will help you connect with and better understand American students.

As a general rule, you can use popular words and phrases now with your friends and classmates, but should use more formal English when speaking to professors and co-workers. If you use today's slang in more formal settings, like at work, people might see you as rude (粗鲁的) or unprofessional.

Pop culture and youth culture tend to create new slang words and trends (趋势). Historically, that meant that the TV shows, pop and hip-hop music, movies, and video games popular with kids, teens, and young adults influenced today's slang. While those forms of media still shape new slang words and cool slang, young people now tend to spend more time online — and with that change, the Internet, and especially social media, drive most of American slang in 2025.

While the Internet and pop culture have created common slang words around the country, keep in mind that different areas of the country may use different slang words. Wherever you decide to study, you'll quickly hear the local slang — and it may even become part of your own vocabulary!

Avoiding all risks might seem smart, but it can make you feel unhappy. The problem is that we often make decisions based on feelings, not facts. We think, "The more scared I feel, the riskier it is." But feelings aren't always reasonable. If we knew how to think about risks clearly, we'd know which risks are worth taking. For example, trying a new hobby like painting might feel daunting at first, but it could bring you joy and new skills.

Whether you're afraid to change your job or too nervous to ask a friend for coffee, learning to take "good risks" can improve your life. Here are good ways to help.

Balance feelings with facts. Many times, we think fear means something risky. But that's not true. For example, driving a car feels safe because we do it every day, but giving a speech in public might make your heart beat fast. Yet the fact shows that car accidents are much more common than getting hurt while speaking! So before you avoid doing something scary, take three deep breaths and ask yourself, "What's the real risk here?"

Take steps to succeed. You can do many small things to lower risks. If you're nervous about a test, make a study plan and review each day — this helps you feel more prepared. It's okay to feel butterflies in your stomach when you try something new. Facing fear helps build your mental muscle, just like exercising builds physical muscle. So, taking smart risks helps you become mentally stronger.

Mr. Tony Harrison quickly soothed (安抚) my uneasiness with his friendly welcome and a big smile on his face. "Welcome to sixth grade! Take any seat," he said. Mr. H, he preferred to be called, was young, energetic and showed happiness with his smiling face and cheerful voice. I chose a seat near the front of the classroom. My mum always told me sitting in the back encouraged trouble, besides I was also nearsighted.

Mr. H was an encouraging teacher and he made learning exciting with his fun ideas. I had always loved school, but somehow Mr. H made school even better. It did not matter if you were the best or worst student in the class, he made you feel special.

Smiley faces were his trademark. He always put a smiley face on the chalkboard, homework assignments and test papers. When he signed my yearbook, he added a smiley face. I am sure he did the same in everyone's book. At the end of the school year, Mr. H gave each student a yellow, enamel pin-on(珐琅别针) smiley face. Years later, when I saw my first smiley face emoji, I immediately thought of Mr. H.

I realised Mr. H's influence on me when I started my first job in high school. Even as a part-timer working in the mail room, I had the ability to influence others and make their day. Mr. H taught many students and adults during his lifetime. His cheerful outlook and kindness left a positive influence on me and countless others.
