Reading

At senior high school, lessons will be more demanding with more knowledge to learn, more examinations to take and more homework to do.
Reading
What should you do in senior high school
I need to focus more on my studies and make a continuous effort. This is good, though, because perseverance and diligence are good qualities that I need to develop, and I would love to challenge myself. I think senior high school will be an important period of my life and will help shape my future.
Reading
What do you think the principal will talk about in his speech
When I read the title "Realizing your potential" and look at the pictures, I believe that the principal will talk about how to be a successful senior high student. He will welcome the new senior high students and encourage them to work hard to become better students. He might also talk about what they can expect to experience at senior high school.
