To Whom It May Concern:

Your address was forwarded to us by Why Bother Magazine. All of us here think The International Institute Not Doing Much is the best organization in the world. You know how to avoid unnecessary activities! We closely followed the advice in your article. First, we replaced all our telephones with carrier pigeons. Simply removing the jingle of telephones and replacing them with the pleasant sounds of birds has had a remarkable effect on everyone. Besides, birds are cheaper than telephone service. After all, we are a business. We have to think of the bottom line. As a side benefit, the birds also fertilize the lawn outside the new employee sauna.

Next, we sold the computers of, to Stab, Grab, Grit, and Nasty, a firm of lawyers nearby. Our electricity bill went way down. Big savings! The boss is impressed. We have completely embraced paper technology. Now that we all use pencils, doodling is on the increase, and the quality of pencil woman ship is impressive, as you can tell from my handwriting in this letter. By the way, if you can, please send this letter back to us. We can erase and reuse it. Just tie it to Maggie’s leg and she’ll know where to take it.

Now it’s very calm and quiet here. You can notice the difference. No more loud chatter on the telephones! All we hear is the scratching of pencil on paper, the sound of pigeons, and the delivery of inter-office correspondence by paper airplane.

Wonderful! I’ve always wanted to work for an insurance company ever since I was a little girl. Now it’s perfect.

Sincerely yours,

Eleanor Lightly

Spokeswoman and ComPany Hair Stylist

Homework

Do arithmetic problems 15 through 25. State the different forms of the verbs on page 50 of your French workbook. Read pages 12 through 20 of the Shakespeare play, and don’t forget to fill in the missing chemical symbols on the worksheet.

Sound like a list of your homework for the next few nights — or maybe even just for tonight? 【小题1】 , and that is your teachers’ way of evaluating (评估) how much you know what’s going on in class. And it helps strengthen important concepts.

【小题2】 It’s attractive to start with the easy things to get them out of the way. However, you’ll have the most energy and focus when you begin, so it’s best to use this mental power on the subjects that are most challenging. Later, when you’re more tired, you can focus on the simpler things. If you get stuck on a problem, try to figure it out as well as you can — but don’t spend too much time on it because this can mess up your homework schedule for the rest of the night. 【小题3】 But don’t pick someone whom you’ll be up all night chatting with, or you’ll never get it done!

Most people’s attention spans aren’t very long, so take some breaks while doing your homework. Sitting for too long without relaxing will make you less productive than if you stop every so often. Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good idea for most people. 【小题4】

Once your homework is done, you can check over it if you have extra time. Be sure to put it safely away in your backpack — there’s nothing worse than having a completed assignment that you can’t find the next morning or that gets ruined by a careless brother or sister. 【小题5】 Now you’re free to hang out.

A.Homework is a major part of going to school
B.It sounds very horrible
C.If you need to, ask an adult for help or call or email a classmate for advice.
D.And no teacher still believes that “chewed by the dog” line — even when it’s true!
E.When you start your homework, deal with the hardest tasks first.
F.But if you’re really concentrating, wait until it’s a good time to stop.
G.In conclusion, no one is expected to stay long, and people have very different learning styles.

The writing assessment has become an all-important feature of the test, both nationwide and worldwide.【小题1】Here are a few ideas that might be helpful.

【小题2】One of the things graders look for in the writing section is the ability to apply knowledge to the real world. Practice with your child by having them write detailed descriptions of something that applies to the real world. And give examples to back it up and support their views.

Use descriptive language. Great writers know how to use descriptive language effectively. Ask students to go into detail and depth regarding any subject they plan to write about.【小题3】Have them then write a paragraph or an essay detailing how someone could try that hobby. They should include materials needed, setting up a hobby area and results to expect. Repeated exposure to detailed writing will greatly increase their ability to communicate in writing.

Write supporting details to back up statements. Being able to support what you say is considered an excellent writing technique. Test scorers want to see that students can make statements that they can back up. The evidence for the statement should be based on real-world facts and ideas as well as their own personal perspective.【小题4】They write them via both their own experience and opinion.

Research shows that students need to work on their ability to communicate in writing using logical sentences and excellent grammatical structure.【小题5】And then they can show the test scorers that they know what they are talking about. With time, they will be able to do this on a higher level and you should see an increase in their scores on their writing assessment.

A.Use examples from nature.
B.Make text-to-world connections.
C.Good writers don’t just write about facts.
D.Practice by giving them a topic, such as a favorite hobby.
E.So, how do you help your child improve their essay writing skills?
F.Their ability to answer questions has a lot to do with their writing score.
G.More importantly, they should feel free to express their views via the written text.

Achievements require proper goal setting if they are to be accomplished.【小题1】However, goals don’t set themselves, nor do they accomplish themselves. It requires effort from you. So get started, identify what matters to you, set goals, keep going, and achieve your eagerness.

【小题2】If you don’t regard the outcome as being sufficiently worthwhile then you won’t have the motivation to see your goal through to a conclusion.

How we think matters, too. You can’t achieve much with negative thinking. A positive mind with a genuine sense of direction will take you as far as you really want to go. There are no limits for anyone with enough self-belief and a real sense of what they really want from life. Believe you can and you will.【小题3】

Dream high dreams. Don’t be afraid to have a magnificent prospect for yourself that is truly inspiring. Don’t be afraid to have dreams big enough to be just a little bit frightening. Your goals should be big enough to stretch you and inspire the desire within you.【小题4】Anything easy will not give you a sense of achievement.

Revisit your inner child. Children have no limits to their dreams.【小题5】The problem is, as we get older we fear losing face if we are seen repeating trial and error. So goal setting starts with pretending you’re a kid again and believing that anything’s possible.

A.Believe you can’t and you won’t.
B.Be realistic of course but don’t make goals too easy.
C.Accomplishing the outcome must really matter to you.
D.Most children believe they can achieve anything they want in life.
E.What you accomplish will undoubtedly bring a lot to you in the future.
F.You can never turn your dreams into achievements without goal setting.
G.A big goal should be broken down into a series of smaller goals and activities.
