A person searches various websites for different reasons, such as school, work, or entertainment. For teenagers, many informative resources on the Internet can be used. As a matter of fact, there are educational, music and art websites that are truly helpful to teenagers, because they can help make one’s life easier.
Educational websites are helpful to a teenager in doing school work and searching for a college. Some can help studying for tests, explaining a lesson, and doing homework. Some can help find the right schools based on one’s interests. And still others have pages devoted to the social life at each of the colleges or the specific activities that occur at a certain school.
Some free music sites enable a teenager to diversify their musical tastes. On these sites, all types of music are available such as pop, cock, jazz, and country. One can type in a song, category or artist and his or her entire catalog appears. Then, the listener can make multiple playlists without creating an account(账户)with the site.
There are various art websites that can help students to appreciate and create art pieces. On these sites, a student can view numerous photos and art pieces from different mediums or create an account with the website to upload them art pieces for people to see. In addition, one can enjoy various art projects that people have created on display for the rest of the world.
Truly informative resources are offered on the Internet. The best suggestion one car receive is to try to look for new websites that can help in the educational, music, or art area so one can become well-rounded and informed.
Truly Helpful Websites for Teenagers

I remember taking1English class in college on the short story. Our first assignment was to read2short stones and then discuss which one was better. After reading both，I wasn't sure. Over the3several months, my professor taught me4one story was so much better than the other wan humorous5was rich in metaphor（隐喻）and character development, while the other was humorous6too shallow. I couldn't see this at first. Yet, in a few months, my brain got reeducated an7could see the difference between good and bad writing and could appreciate literature at a whole new level.

Going to college helps build a strong mind, which leads8greater success in one's life.

Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how.
1) Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don't forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.
2) Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.
3) Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
4) Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
5) Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don't pass a test, so don't be overly worried.
There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.

[1]Have you ever been in the situation where you really didn’t believe what someone was saying? Did you have a sense that something didn’t ring true or a feeling that all was not right? Perhaps they were saying ‘‘Yes’’ yet their heads were shaking “No”．
[2]The difference between the words people speak and our understanding of them comes from non-verbal communication, otherwise known as “body language”. Body language includes body movements and gestures(1egs，arms，hands，head and body)，posture，muscle tension，eye contact，skin coloring，even people’s breathing rate and sweat．Additionally，the tone of voice，the rate of speech and the pitch of the voice all add to the words that are being used．
[3] By developing your awareness of the signs and signals of body language，you can more easily understand other people，and more effectively communicate with them．There are sometimes subtle(微妙的)—and sometimes not so subtle—movements，gestures, facial expressions and even shifts in our whole bodies that indicate something is going on．We have ways of talking，walking，sitting and standing and they all say something about us，and whatever is happening on the inside can be reflected on the outside．
[4]By becoming more aware of this body language and understanding what it might mean，you can learn to read people more easily．This puts you in a better position to communicate effectively with them．What’s more, by increasing your understanding of others，you can also become more aware of the messages that you convey to them．
[5] There are times when we send mixed messages—we say one thing yet our body language reveals something different．This non-verbal language will affect how we act and react to others，and how they react to us．Therefore，in order to communicate more effectively，we should learn the signs and signals of body language correctly．
