I have to say that future is now. That is to say, we must treasure every minute now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know how important time is and use it well.There is an old English saying, “Gain (得到) time, gain life.” Then whats time? Time is something that we cant see or touch, but we feel it passing by. Time is always with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time goes by unnoticeable. We always say “Time is money”, but time is even more precious (珍贵的) than money, because when money is spent, we can make it back. But if time is gone away, it will never return. So, some of us even say time is priceless (无价的).We should always remember: future is now. For us students, we should try our best to work hard in order to create a great future of our own. We should make the best use of every hour and be the master of today. We should do everything before us as well as possible. And never put off (推迟) what can be done today till tomorrow.As we all know, “Time and tide wait for no man.” If you waste today, you will regret tomorrow. So from now on, work hard. Tomorrow will be better, and your future will be brighter. Remember: “No pains, no gains.” Todays hard work is the cause of tomorrows harvest.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。（1）If we want to have a bright future, we should.A . know the value of time and make every minute usefulB . feel time passing byC . understand that time is always with us and we can waste it（2）The word unnoticeable meansin Chinese.A . 随意的 B . 不引人注意的C . 慢慢的（3）Time is more valuable than money because.A . past time will return no more B . time cant be seen or touched C . time is always with us（4）From the passage, we know.A . when money is spent, we should make it backB . we can put off what can be done today till tomorrowC . todays hard work leads to tomorrows harvest（5）What is the best title for the passage?A .

When the bell rings, students of Luohu Foreign Languages School in Shenzhen quickly take out their cell phones.

Recent surveys shows that most students in middle schools have a micro blog and some even update their blogs over five times per day.We learn many fresh and interesting things on micro blogs and they have become popular topics in class, said Andy Liang, 14. If you do not know about them, you are out of the loop.It is also a great place for students to let out stress. My parents always ask me to study all the time, and encourage me before exams, but it really adds pressure, said Simon Zhang, 15. When I share these feelings on my micro blog, I get many replies from friends in the same situation, which makes me feel better.But parents are worried that micro blogging could be a waste of time. Some misleading messages may even cause danger to kids, they said.Mr. Shen, a professor at the China Education Association, suggests parents not worry too much as long as kids are not crazy about micro blogging. Maybe it can become a window for parents to understand their children. If parents can read their childrens micro blogs, theyll know their thoughts, thus leading to better communication and solutions to problems, he said. He also gives some tips for kids.-Dont micro blog for more than one hour a day.-Never micro blog in class.-Try to talk face to face with people from time to time.-Be critical.
