C

This summer I went to Iceland with my family. I had a great time there.

Day 1

Today we walked around the capital of Iceland. Reykjavik is a wonderful city filled with lots of history, shopping and delicious restaurants. There are ruins dating back to the Viking Era down Reykjavik’s oldest main downtown streets. One famous monument of Reykjavik is the large church built in the city center. The church offers a view of the city that is amazing.

Day 2

We got on the bus for the Golden Circle tour where we went through the famous Thingvellir National Park, then on to the Golden Waterfall in the highlands and the Geyser (天然热喷泉). The most amazing part of this tour for me was our trip to the Geyser. There were several active geysers that we were able to stand right near. The geysers went off every ten minutes. The hot water sprayed straight up and you could feel the heat. Hot underground water is one  of Iceland’s greatest resources. Iceland has over 170 hot water pools that are open all year round.

Day 3

Today we rode Icelandic horses. The Vikings arrived in Iceland more than 1,000 years ago, bringing with them their small Nordic horses. They are small, gentle, and friendly. Icelandic horses are quite a bit smaller than the horses I have ridden in Montana. I really enjoyed having the chance to ride an Icelandic horse. Doing sightseeing on horseback in Iceland was delightful.

Day 4

We took our last walk around town and down to the Harbor. We stopped and bought our last round of souvenirs (纪念品), then took a taxi to the airport. I am really looking forward to our return.

Getting your children to study can be a little like getting them to eat their vegetables.

31   Make a study time and have it at the same time every day. This will help your kids to learn to schedule their day and will give them a sense of control over how they spend their time.

Allow them to study in blocks of time, such as for half an hour with a five-minute break in the middle.   32   Ideal(理想的)study times are after dinner or right after school before dinner.

35   This includes helping them out with their homework sometimes and being there for them with the answers to any questions. The input you give your children during study periods will help form a bond and help make studying enjoyable.

A. Keep the atmosphere light and offer lots of encouragement, too.

B. Instead, use TV as a treat or a reward when the homework is completed.

C. Pick a place where your children can study properly.
