“Sesame Street”is a TV programme for children. It first appeared in New York     
1969. It is called "the longest street in the world". That's   the TV programme by that name can now be seen in so many parts of the world.
In the US over six million children watch the programme regularly. The    include
more than half the nation's pre-school(學齡前)children. Parents love the programme. Many teachers also consider it a great help,   some educators are against certain things in it.
Tests show children from different   have benefited(收獲)from watching the programme. Those who watch it five times   week learn more than those who watch it once in a while. In the US the programme is shown at   hours so that more children can watch it. The programmes all   songs, stories, jokes and pictures to help children understand numbers, letters and human relationship. But there are some differences
    ,the programme made in Mexico City   more time to teaching whole words than to teaching letters one by one.
Why is“Sesame Street" more successful than other children's shows? There   many reasons—the good education of its producers, the support   the government and businesses, and the skillful use of many TV tricks. Also   watch it along with their children. This is partly because famous adult stars often appear on it. But the best reason may be that it makes every child   able to learn. Children find themselves learning, and they want to learn   .

Walden is a quiet small town in England. Cars can’t go into the centre of the town, so it is very pleasant to walk around.
Spend at least half a day visiting the museum. It’s on a hill outside the town in a lonely old building. The museum brings history to life. You can even ride on a horse and cart(馬車) in the street. I was really interested in a 1950s living room in the museum. It was just like my grandmother’s house. I lived there when I was a child.
If you can’t wait, there is a new exhibition(展覽) opening soon. Walden is famous for one thing—candy! If you like candy, this exhibition is the place for you. You can learn about its history. I never see so many different kinds of candies.
But I won’t go now because it will start on the 26th of May.
When you are there, have a look around Walden too. If you start in the main square and follow the green signs, they will take you to the museum, and you will see lots of other interesting things on the way, too.

Good morning, boys and girl. Today I’ll give a talk about going online.
We know that there are too many net bars around us. The Internet can make our lives interesting and enjoyable(令人愉快的). Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer. We can learn English and read some newspapers and magazines to know more around us. It can make us clever in playing computer games. Also when we can send e-mails to our friends, they can get them at once. It can help us contact(交流) people from all over the world.
But some students spend too much time playing computer games and some stay in the net bars all day and all night. Some girls even get to have boyfriends or some boys get to have girlfriends online. They write too many letters to each other. It takes them too much time to chat online so they do worse in their lessons and they don’t study well any more. I think we mustn’t get online when it is time for us to study. We can do it in summer or winter holidays. I think we should get online with our teachers or parents.
At the same time, if we have lots of free time, we can do some activities after school. We usually have activities from 4:50 to 5:50 in the afternoon . You can play basket ball or football. We also have some interest groups in school, such as drawing, singing and dancing. We can go to the English corner on Monday afternoon. We hope we can spend more time on our subjects or on such activities that we can learn a lot from and less time on the Internet.

Title: A【小題1】 about going online。
