Got a bad grade，afraid to show my parents Report cards are going out this Friday，and I realized I had failed in chemistry．My parents are probably going to kill me for that．What should I do？ |
|
It is better to be honest with them and tell them it is a very difficult course and you are trying your hardest．Promise them you will work harder．Study a little every night so when your next test comes you'll be much more prepared． |
|
Let me guess，you have always been a great student and slipped up just this one time？Explain that to your parents． |
|
You should learn from insects﹣when they try to cross a wall，they fall down again and again until at some time they get success． |
|
Do what I did…show your parents your report cards and then simply ask them…"Did any one of you guys ever fail a test？" |
|
I never showed my parents my test scores．It's none of their business! |

Here is a page from a magazine called Future. Read the following information about things that may happen in twenty years.
Cars will run on solar power(太阳能) and will be much cleaner and safer. For example, if you are too close to another car or if you are driving dangerously, your car will slow down or stop by itself.
New cities will have to be built in the sea. Some cities on water will have two levels (层). People will live on the upper level, the lower level will be used for traffic, shops and factories.
Biotechnology (生物技术) will make food better and healthier. Plants without insects or illnesses (病虫害) will be developed. The taste of fruit and vegetables will be better and food will be kept longer.
Many new ways to cure (治愈) illnesses will be found. People will use products of genetic engineering (基因产品) to cure more illnesses. However, some new illnesses will appear.
