As a middle school teacher,I feel sad, too. However, Id like to say that bad grades are not the end of the world.Recently, researchers from the University of Bristol (in England) and the University of Chicago(in the USA)did a survey. Over 10,000 people took part in the research. The study shows that promising children money, iPads or cell phones to pass exams is useless. However, promises of trips can encourage students to study hard. So from now on, please make proper promises.Material TwoAs an education expert, I care much about your kids.

Education expertsB“How are you?”is a nice question. its a friendly way that people in the USA greet each other.But How are you? ”is also a very unusual question, its a question that often doesnt need an answer. The person who asks“ How are you?” hopes to hear the answer“Fine”, even if the friend is that How are you? isnt really a question and Fine isnt really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying“ Hello”or“Hi”.Sometimes, people also dont say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks Do you agree? the other person might think, No, I disagree. I think youre wrong.But it isnt very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say Im not sure, its a nicer way to say that you dont agree with someone.People also dont say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person saysIve got to go now. Often,the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse: someones at the door. Something is burning on the stove(炉灶). ”The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesnt want to talk any more, but it isnt polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesnt hurt the other person.Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people dont say exactly what they are thinking. its an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and its part of the game of language.34.
