Never try to work when you are very hungry. If you decide to do your homework right after school, you may get something to eat before going to work. Always do your homework before you get too tired. Don’t wait until very late in the evening, or your work will seem much harder than it really is.
If you have more than an hour’s work, give yourself a break after an hour. On the other hand don’t break it up so much that you can’t get anything down. You should be able to work at least a half at a time without stopping.
Don’t put it off until the last minute. If you put off doing your homework, you will have it on your mind, and you won’t enjoy your free time so much. If you put it off until the end of the week or until before a test, you will have too much catching up to do. A little bit each night, enough to keep up with what is happening each day in school, will take the fear out of tests and keep you on top of it all.

Hawaii is famous for its beaches. Every year water sports, especially surfing and water skiing attract many tourists to the island.
Hawaii has been a magical name to people who like to travel for many years. People on both sides of the Pacific Ocean（太平洋） in Japan and in America, dream of seeing these beautiful islands in the middle of the ocean. In the tropical（热带的） lands, the sun drops like a ball of golden glow(落日余晖) that light the sky in the quiet water.
People often have a quiet, enjoyable time walking along the water. The scenery here is not very different from the exciting beauty that greeted the first tourists to these islands centuries ago. They came in canoes not much bigger than small boats.
They found the beautiful white sand beaches and the waving palm trees（棕榈树）, but there were no grand hotels like the ones we see today.
