You don’t have to feel terrible all the time on school days. Your school days can be some of your happiest time! Yes, it is possible. Let me tell you what you should do.

On every weekend, take a piece of paper and write down the title “My Schedule (计划)”. Under it, write the days of the week. Next to the days you can write what you should do. You should give yourself enough time for study and some time for activities you like to do.

In class, you have to listen to the teachers carefully. Also, try to answer the questions they ask in class and talk about your ideas. You will be someone interesting for the teachers and someone special for your classmates.

Try to make friends with your classmates. If they don’t like to make friends with you, it’s fine. Notice if there is someone whom you feel you can be friends with.

If you want to do something or you feel bad these days, you can discuss it with the friend you trust. It is very helpful to have a best friend who can reach for your hand and touch your heart.

Invite your friends to ask them if they’d like to hang out with you. Other time, do homework with them at the same time or places. You could give them ideas and they may have helpful thoughts that would help both of you.

“Every year over 30 percent of the food in the world goes to waste,” says the FAO (联合国粮食及农业组织) . To stop food waste, people have come up with the great ideas.

①The world’s first food bank started in the US in 1967. People and shops give out their extra food to a place, and others in need go there to eat it, Shanghai has made a “share fridge” in the street. It stores (贮藏) cakes and food given by nearby markets and restaurants. It’s free for anyone to enjoy.

②The Real Junk Food Project is a company (公司) in the UK. It says that food past its sell-by date could still be OK to eat. So they collect such food from supermarkets, and put it on shelves in special cafes. There, the food has no price notes. If you don’t want to spend money, you can help do some work there.

③Dining halls in more than half of the US colleges are going tray-less (无托盘) . That means nowhere to put extra dishes. It makes it harder for students to take too much. This small change brings a big difference.
