Playing Guess Who

Learning who is who from history can get confusing so use this teaching strategy to help. Put those problem- solving skills to good use in history class (or others). Describe a time, place, or person from history with only three clues. The entire class has to try to figure out who or what you are referring to, then race to the whiteboard to write the answer.

Writing a Journal

Develop creative writing skills by asking each student to write a journal from someone else's viewpoint. There are many famous diarists who provide key insight into life through history. You could ask students to give a different diary and then ask them to read it in front of the class.

Brainstorming

Group brainstorming sessions are a great way to bring your students together to connect with whatever they are learning. Instead of thinking about the topic alone at their desk, they get to expand (详述) their ideas with other students in small groups. Use brainstorming worksheets for this activity idea.

Debating

Most students will have a view of what they're learning. Use this to your advantage and create a school activity of debating the pros or cons of whatever they are learning about. Get them to write down their main points on pieces of paper ahead so they can practice and be prepared for the debate. This can be done in front of the whole class and you can change the debaters each week.

As an old saying goes, "Friends are like wine, the older, the better." This has led many to attach (great) significance to long-standing friendships than to newly (form) ones. For example, when two pieces of advice (give) to solve a problem — one from a new friend and the other from an old friend — the majority will prefer latter, even if the new friend's advice is objectively better. Nevertheless, I disagree with the old saying, (believe) that new friends are not necessarily worse than old friends. It is not always right to determine your friendship by the (long) of time.

Once you call someone a friend, it is because they are a person who is reliable andinterests are in common with yours. It is mainly their character and interests make them your friends. While people's appearances may change, the essence of their character usually (stay) the same. Therefore, in this regard, there is no differenceold friends and new friends.

Waiting and praying were a daily1for Michelle as she's one of the hundreds of American children2a new liver. But recently the prayers were more3as she'd been showing danger signs that made the transplant critical, but the telephone was as silent as the snowy scene outside.

Then one morning, the phone rang, saying a hospital in Omaha had4 the right liver donor and it was a(n)5for Michelle. But they needed her there6 12 hours.

The family couldn't tell what to do first — overjoy or7. Because they were, snowbound, 600 miles away.8, the phone lines were still working, so they put out a call for help through the radio station, which immediately broadcast9messages for practical suggestions.

Teresa Arnshoff heard the story and suggested that the church parking lot would be the perfect helicopter landing spot. As precious minutes10, the Arnshoffs rushed out, pleading for help to clear the lot. Neighbors came without11. In half an hour, 50 volunteers were working in sub-zero winds to clear the snow.

With dusk12, the family finally made it to the church, where 150 people, leaning on shovels, were surrounded by mountainous piles of snow. As fire trucks arrived to provide lights for the helicopter, the crowd13to 300, applauding and waving as the helicopter flew off into the snowy night.

As studies have found, the brain has "hedonic hotspots" — specialized regions that increase the rewarding feeling or "liking" of palatable (可口的) tastes. This can result in a dopamine (多巴胺) hit that strengthens a person's motivation to seek palatable food rewards. Therefore, people might be encouraged by their brains to consume particular foods.

But why are comfort foods generally somewhat unhealthy? They are often referred to as "hyper-palatable" foods, easy to digest, sweet, salty, or rich. These very ingredients that make the food taste so good are bad for our health when consumed too much. So, a person's brain tends not to want them in the same way it does a donut or a slice of pizza.

Comfort foods are an attempt to feel content or a means of reducing stress, but it seems they are not always effective. In a survey of 2,000 adults, one in four people admitted eating comfort foods at least five times a week, even though over half said those meals made them feel worse. So, why? People are aware that these foods are not nutritionally beneficial.

Some researches, however, have also found that comfort foods do have the ability to comfort us but just no more than any other food. Comfort foods can result in an immediate mood lift. Individuals may just be giving comfort food credit for mood effects that would have occurred even in the absence of that particular food.

A. Healthy foods tend not to contain these elements.

B. Over time, this causes them to feel regret and shame.

C. But making comfort foods itself can be more helpful.

D. Any other food is also able to achieve the same outcome.

E. Comfort foods are often associated with carefree memories.

F. The brain rewards people when they consume certain foods.

G. The key is the emotional connection and the sense of well-being.
